After reading the agreement again, Wu Tingfang put away the agreement that was more than a dozen pages long and prepared to put it in his drawer.

Wu Tingfang was interrupted by a sound of footsteps outside Dong Dong, and when he looked up, he saw that it was his son.

"Father, the handsome man is here."

Dashuai, Wu Tingfang, who heard this name, stood up from his chair all of a sudden, he didn't believe that Liu Jun would come to him, and it was at this time. But he also knew that his son would not lie, so he stood up and looked outside, and sure enough, he saw that Liu Junzheng, accompanied by Zhong Lin and Zheng Yiqian, had entered the courtyard and was walking this way.

With a sigh, Wu Tingfang, who was surprised in his heart, hurriedly ran out, welcomed Liu Jun into the study, and then called someone to serve tea, and then stood aside, waiting for Liu Jun's question.

"I heard Wu Datong say that you have looked for me several times, is there any news from the German side?" Liu Jun put down the tea bowl and asked quietly after motioning for Wu Tingfang to sit down.

Wu Tingfang nodded and took out the agreement from the drawer: "Marshal, Germany has agreed to our suggestion, and came to ask me to go to the Legation with me the day before yesterday to discuss, and yesterday, we have signed an agreement with Tsarist Russia." Wu Tingfang, who said this, handed the agreement to Liu Jun.

The agreement has been signed, and Liu Jun, who is a little unconvinced, opened it and looked at it, and sure enough, the content on it was the names of the three of them about some of the terms of the changes to the Japanese mainland operation.

It seems that the big thing must be, and the rest of the time is to wait for the arrival of the second batch of German troops. Thinking of this, Liu Jun handed the document to Wu Tingfang: "Archive it." ”

Wu Tingfang nodded and took the document in his hand seriously.

"Where is the second German army now?" Seeing Wu Tingfang take the document, Liu Jun turned his head and asked, Zhong Lin, who was sitting opposite.

Zhong Lin knew the whereabouts of Germany best, so he didn't think about it, Zhong Lin said: "Head, according to the news delivered by Guangdong, the second batch of German troops has entered the South China Sea, and met with the patrol fleet of the Guangdong Naval Division, and is now resting in Huangpu, Guangdong, preparing to leave tomorrow and come to Lushun. ”

It means that it is a matter of three or four days. Thinking of this, Liu Jun got up from his chair, he had to go back, after all, there were still some things that he needed to deal with.

After Liu Jun, who came back from Wu Tingfang, returned to the headquarters, he came to the map, and from the map mountain, he now concentrated the strength of one of his own corps in Lianyungang, while in Weihai, there are two corps, Lushun now has two corps plus more than 48,000 people of the German Army, and in North Korea, it is the First Corps commanded by Ding Ruchang and Qin Liang's Korean Corps and the North Korean troops of nearly 250,000 people, and in the area of Vladivostok, it is the strength of one corps of the Third Corps.

It seems that there is no need to exist all the way from Vladivostok, and Liu Jun, who thought of this, picked up a pen from the side and drew a cross on it.

At the beginning, in the plan he drew up, he loaded soldiers from five places: Vladivostok, Korea, Lushun, Weihai and Lianyungang, and then fought against the Japanese mainland under the escort of the navy, and the Liaodong Army in Vladivostok and the Russian army became the northern route. The 250,000 people of North Korea became the middle road alone, Lushun and Weihai became the south road, and Lianyungang became the road on its own, responsible for capturing the area around the island of Okinawa.

But the plan is not as good as the change, now the Tsarist Russian army has been unable to arrive in Vladivostok on time, this northern route, has already existed in name only, with the third corps of 40,000 people to attack the north, this is obviously not a desirable thing, so after thinking about it for a long time, Liu Jun felt that the two corps of the Vladivostok army on the northern route would not participate in the war against Japan.

"Have you decided that the troops of Vladivostok will not participate in the battle?" Zheng Yiqian, who had been standing next to her, saw Liu Jun draw two strokes on it, and stepped forward to ask.

Seeing Liu Jun nodded, Zheng Yiqian lowered her head and thought for a while, then raised her head and said: "If Vladivostok's troops do not participate in the battle, our troops will not be able to really form an advantage over Japan. ”

Liu Jun understood what Zheng Yiqian meant, that is, there was not enough troops. But this is also a thing that can not be done, the Russian army is not there, and they can't let the Third Corps in Vladivostok go up alone, to put it mildly, these 40,000 people are well-equipped, but there is no difference between going and not going.

"What do you mean?" Knowing that Zheng Yiqian was worried, then there must be a solution in her heart, Liu Jun asked straight after thinking for a while.

Zheng Yiqian does have a solution, that is, to transfer troops from Shaanxi.

It is not an easy task to fight against Japan, and if we mobilize any corps that have not participated in the battle, it will be a large handful, and the strength of five or six corps can be brought out, but the troops that must have combat effectiveness and the troops that have participated in real battles, in addition to the troops concentrated in these few places, the remainder are Li Rong's Fifth Corps in Fujian, Wang Shizhen's Seventh and Eighth Corps in Shaanxi, and Wu Peifu's Corps, Zhang Yi's Corps, and Luo Dacheng's Corps, which have already gone to Tibet and Xinjiang.

These three, don't need to think about it, it will take too long to transfer them back, and the only ones that can be mobilized are the troops of Li Rong and Wang Shizhen, and the two corps in Guangdong.

"Let's see if we can mobilize troops from Shaanxi and Fujian to participate in this operation." Looking down and thinking for a while, Zheng Yiqian pointed and asked.

"Where are the troops transferred? What about the imperial court? Zhong Lin on the side immediately jumped out to express his disapproval.

In any case, although the imperial court is often unable to compete with Liaodong, but where there are nearly 500,000 troops, although the combat effectiveness of these troops is not good, but the guns in their hands are not burning sticks, once Cixi's old wife goes crazy, who knows if there will be any problems, this is something that cannot be known.

Although Zhong Lin objected, Liu Jun's heart on the side had already begun to turn, and what Zheng Yiqian said was not impossible, now, in his newly formed corps, although he could not deal with well-equipped and well-trained troops like Japan, it was already a problem of more than rubbing to deal with the imperial court. What's more, he can also ask Li Hongzhang to write a letter and send it to Zhang Zhidong, the current Minister of Military Aircraft, so that he can exercise from it, hoping not to lag behind in this time of national rejuvenation.

"Send electricity to Li Rong and Wang Shizhen." Liu Jun, who had thought clearly, raised his head and said quietly.
