Now that Li Rong has succeeded, the following things are much easier to do.

After drinking tea, Liu Jun repeatedly warned Zhong Lin to catch more, tie more, and grab more. These are all talents who are useful for the construction of Lushun and the construction of the troops.

Liu Jun didn't expect that Zhong Lin would be so good at doing this kind of thing with a dark moon and high wind, and more than a hundred people were finally taken to Lushun, and he didn't know how he did it.

With the baby who fought against the little devil, Liu Jun was in a good mood, and walked all the way to the Governor's Mansion humming a little song.

In such a mood, he happened to be caught by Yang Shixiang in the courtyard, he pulled Liu Jun to the side, and said in surprise: "You don't want to live you." ”

What do you mean, a good youth, my son didn't hug me, who wants to die, Liu Jun looked at Yang Shixiang dementedly, not understanding what he meant.

Seeing that Liu Jun didn't understand, Yang Shixiang looked left and right, and after finding that there was no one, he said: "Lord Zhongtang has been very angry because of today's incident, and now he has broken three of his favorite Southern Song Dynasty cups in the living room. ”

Tsk, the things of the Southern Song Dynasty, it's a pity to smash it, if you give it to me, how many cannons will it be exchanged. Liu Jun did not take Yang Shixiang's advice seriously, but felt unworthy for the three Southern Song Dynasty porcelains.

"What are you thinking, my saliva is scared." Yang Shixiang knocked Liu Jun, thinking that he was afraid.

Hehe, wiped the saliva that came out with his sleeve, and Liu Jun pulled Yang Shixiang up: "Let's go, let's go see the old man, and the money will be smashed after a while." ”

The two rushed to the living room, and saw porcelain fragments all over the floor, Li Hongzhang was sitting on a chair sulking, and his son Li Jingfang was standing on the side, looking at his old man tremblingly, for fear of getting into trouble.

Liu Jun smiled, walked to the coffee table, mentioned Li Hongzhang poured a cup of tea, and then walked happily to Li Hongzhang: "You are old and angry." ”

"Degassing, it's easy for you to ****." Li Hongzhang glanced at Liu Jun angrily.

Liu Jun patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, by tomorrow afternoon at the latest, I absolutely guarantee that the Japanese will come to us to negotiate, but please delay the negotiation time when the time comes, and let them hurry for a few days."

Li Hongzhang looked at Liu Jun suspiciously, he didn't know what kind of dog skin plaster he was selling, stood up, Li Hongzhang asked: "Don't hide, hurry up and say what you are doing, don't lose Lao Tzu's appetite here." ”

Poof, Yang Shixiang, who was drinking tea, spit out the tea, how many years have he heard Li Hongzhang scolding.

Liu Jun smiled and said something that made the audience petrified: "I didn't do anything, I knew that Little Japan was going to finish the trick, so I also played a trick and let Li Rong fight across the Yalu River and occupy Sinuiju." ”

This is nothing, this is simply breaking the sky, after a while, Li Hongzhang hesitated to ask: "What you said is true, you must know that the two sides have ceased fire." ”

"I'm sorry, but I didn't receive any ceasefire orders." Liu Jun is right.

Hehehe, Li Hongzhang looked at Liu Jun, and laughed cunningly, now he is not in a hurry, but the Japanese are in a hurry.

asked people to clean the living room, and Li Hongzhang, who was in a good mood, let people put a banquet, and today he planned not to get drunk and not return.

Li Hongzhang didn't believe it, which is more important, Shengjing or North Korea, if the Japanese can't tell the difference, then they are not worthy of being human.

At the Japanese Legation, Yuhiro Ito, who was resting in the living room and drinking tea, and Vice Admiral and Ono were celebrating.

Ito Yuheng said: "Your Excellency the Prime Minister is really clever, taking advantage of the paralysis of the Qing army in Liaoyang, he found such an excuse to suddenly take Liaoyang, and also pushed this responsibility to the Qing State, which is really high." ”

The Vice Admiral also nodded, raised his head and drank the tea in the cup, looked at the two of them, and said, "This matter is a secret of the Great Japanese Empire, and it is not allowed to be told to outsiders. Hehehe, the vice admiral nodded, stood up, came to the window and said with a smile: "I don't believe that the Qing people will not retreat when they get this news." ”

The two people sitting on the ground also nodded in agreement.

"Your Excellency, General Headquarters, urgent telegram from the base camp." A guard walked in, and the brother of the undersecretary of the navy sent a telegram.

Hurry, seeing the two words above, the deputy commander of the Navy did not understand what else was so anxious now. When he opened it gently, the deputy admiral was stunned, his hands trembled, and the telegram slipped out of his hand.

The two sitting on the ground, not knowing what was going on, hurriedly walked over and looked at the Admiral in surprise.

Looking at the two of them with spiritless eyes, the vice commander of the navy said weakly: "The base camp telegraphed, the 40,000 men of the Lushun Army suddenly attacked Korea, and our Korean troops suffered heavy losses, and now they have retreated to Pyongyang, and at present, Sinuiju and Dingju have been occupied by the Lushun Army.

Jumping is like a big thunderbolt. Everyone understands what it means for the Lushun Army to occupy Sinuiju, and even more so to understand what it means to occupy Sinjin River.

The 1st and 15th Divisions were truly lone forces, and the Arthur Army could take Pyongyang at any time if it wanted to.

After a while, the vice admiral said to Ono who was standing in front of him in a daze: "Only Li Hongzhang will go, and we will negotiate immediately." ”

"What, I want to negotiate. : Li Hongzhang, who was sitting on the Taishi chair, looked at Yang Shixiang who was standing in front of him.

"Yes, they are asking for an immediate resumption of negotiations." Yang Shixiang relayed Ono's words.

Hmph, I want to negotiate, but now I can't help you. is saying that now Liu Jun is already generating electricity to stabilize the battle situation on the front line, and he will agree at this critical moment, and he has to wait for the battle to start anyway.

Taking a sip of tea calmly, Li Hongzhang said lightly: "Tell him that the old man is unwell in the past two days and cannot enter the negotiation, so please wait for two days." ”

Yang Shixiang smiled slightly, understood what Li Hongzhang meant, turned his head and began to tell Xiao Ye, who was standing outside anxiously, the news.

Stealing chickens is not enough to lose a handful of rice. Looking at Ono's back in a trance. Yang Shixiang spat in disgust. Then he turned and walked back to the study.

As soon as he returned to the study, he saw Liu Jun standing next to Li Hongzhang, and it was estimated that the telegram had already been sent.

Liu Jun's meaning is very clear, take advantage of your illness and ask for your life, since they have already reached North Korea, then take advantage of the lack of Japanese troops in North Korea to gain a firm foothold in the area of Sinuiju and Dingju first. Then take Pyongyang, if it is good, go south in the future, take Seoul, if it is not good, then support an emperor in Pyongyang and work against the Japanese.

Regarding Liu Jun's plan that is beneficial to both advance and retreat, Li Hongzhang clapped his hands and agreed.

Liu Jun also knew that this time, I was afraid that it would be the last time he would let Li Hongzhang vomit something, so he found a good reason to let Li Hongzhang vomit a large amount of silver and at the same time obtain a large number of arms and a group of students from Tianjin Academy and Baoding Academy.

Liu Jun's bait is big and realistic, opening up the territory.

No matter which dynasty, the general's greatest wish is to open up the territory. Only in this way can we stand at the highest point in history, and even the evaluation of Ping = is higher than that of the emperor.

Liu Jun's reason is very simple, after taking Pyongyang, he will then find someone to pretend to be a descendant of the Li family, and after ascending to the throne, let the Qing Dynasty control everything, and then slowly assimilate North Korea and make North Korea a part of the Qing Dynasty.

It's all tempting to think about, and it's an easy one to achieve. So Li Hongzhang immediately took the case, agreed with Liu Jun's plan, and promised Liu Jun that he would ask for someone to give people and money to money.

What Liu Jun was waiting for was Li Hongzhang's words.

Since it was decided to cool the Japanese negotiators until Pyongyang counterattacked, then it was necessary to pretend. For this, Liu Jun is handy. Not only did he let the doctor come every day, but he also went to the German minister's place to specially let the German military doctor go to the Governor's Palace. And when I came and went, I passed by the Japanese legation so that the Japanese could see it. Li Hongzhang is indeed sick, and he is not lightly ill. I didn't mean to embarrass you Japanese.

At the Japanese Legation, Ono looked at the sedan chair of the German doctor who was escorted by the officers and soldiers of the Governor's Palace again, and shook his head helplessly, his heart full of remorse. Knowing this, he would have handed over the report of the troops' entry into Liaoyang to Li Hongzhang at that time, and Li Hongzhang would not have been sick.

But then again, who would have known that the Qing army, which has always been honest, would suddenly become as shameless as himself, to know this kind of shameless thing, but his country's patent, he didn't expect it to be stolen by others this time, and there is no reason to say that it was stolen.

The Lushun army insisted that they did not receive a telegram. This is absolute, if people die and don't admit it. I don't have any way at all.

Everyone knows that the Lushun army is the army of the damned king of Liaodong, and it is normal that he did not receive an order.

Look at other people's reasons, as well as the reasons found by your own country, no matter where you say it, your own reasons are untenable.

The Qing country was backward in transportation, and people said that they had not received orders, and it was estimated that the whole world would believe it. However, for their own reasons, the Qing army tore up the armistice regulations and openly attacked the troops in Liaoyang. The world knows that Qing is an honest country, and if you say this, the ghost will believe it.

Hey, he sighed helplessly, he felt that this time Japan had to knock out its own teeth and swallow it itself.
