As soon as Enze heard that it was the siege of the Liaodong army, he didn't care about the usual majesty, so he suddenly pushed away the deputy general, ran out of the study like crazy, and then rode on a fast horse, without even calling his own soldiers, and went straight to the city gate.

As soon as I got to the city gate, I gasped a few times. Enze took the telescope handed over by the adjutant general who followed behind.

Oh my God. Enze suddenly felt his legs and stomach go soft, outside the city. Out-of-town ...... They estimated that there were a hundred field guns facing the Shengjing City Gate.

Those field guns are very easy to count, five rows, twenty guns in each row, and, looking at the artillerymen squatting next to the field guns, Enze absolutely dares to guarantee that these field guns are loaded with shells.

For these, it is not frightening, on a hill about fifty meters in front of the field artillery, there are more than a dozen guns on the black top, with the muzzle and the copper basin laughing, staring at Shengjing.

Enze knew that these artillery, called guns without conscience, were terrifying things that blew up a crater and didn't have anything, and it was this thing that the Japanese were most afraid of at that time.

Behind the field artillery, it can be clearly seen that there are at least 5,000 infantry and 2,000 cavalry, staring at Shengjing with wide eyes, like looking at a big beauty.

"Will ...... Checkmate...... What are we going to do. Although the lieutenant general had already been frightened once just now, the shock brought to him this time still made him a little scared, and he was very worried that these things would suddenly only shoot artillery fire at Shengjing City.

He assured that after just one round of shelling, there would be no bones left.

What to do, what to do about this, Enze is General Shengjing, but he has never experienced the battlefield at all, the First Sino-Japanese War, he has no chance to fight with the Japanese, and now, he never dreamed that he would fight against an opponent like the Liaodong Army, in addition, this person pays attention to culture. The Four Books and Five Classics are in action, but in the face of this thing, he really doesn't know how to face and deal with it.

"This, old man looks ......at it," Enze muttered for a long time, but didn't say the way to say the audio track.

"Hey, listen to the people of the city." With a loud roar, it can be regarded as Tienze to relieve the siege.

Enze stuck his head out of the wall, and saw more than a dozen Liaodong cavalry, he knew that the Liaodong Army was a military rank, and when he looked at the collar badge, he was actually a colonel, which was at least an officer in charge of thousands of people.

Zhang Wei is the commander of the Second Regiment of the Cavalry Division of the Third Corps, and today he is here to give Enze an order from Duan Qirui to give Sheng Jing an ultimatum......

Duan Qirui didn't have the patience to wait, after all, now that he had torn his face, he wouldn't hesitate, and he also knew that Liu Jun wouldn't hesitate, so as soon as he saw that the liaison soldiers were driven out, Duan Qirui immediately ordered that a division that came over was in the previous brigade, and the entire Shengjing siege was blocked at once, and in order to give General Shengjing a sense of oppression, he even concentrated the corps with more artillery at the east gate, the purpose was to make the officers and soldiers of Shengjing afraid, and then open the gate and let the army in.

Seeing the completion of the deployment, he discussed with Zhang Yiyi, and did not stop doing anything, so he simply gave Enze three hours to consider, within three hours, if the city gate was opened, everyone would still be good brothers, three hours later, I am sorry, not to mention the siege of the city, take Shengjing, everything in the city, except for the people, so the officers and soldiers will be slaughtered.

Zhang Wei looked up and saw a man in red armor sticking out of the wall battlement.

He didn't know Enze, and thought it was a small soldier, so he took off his military hat with a big grin, and Zhang Wei shouted on the horse: "Then who, go and tell your general, our commander will give him three hours, and after three hours open the gate, everything will be fine, if not." Zhang Wei said this, turned the horse's head around, pointed at the dense field artillery behind him with a horsewhip, and then said loudly: "Once the city is broken, the jade will be burned." ”

Hiss, Enze almost fainted when he heard this, although he had not been to the front line, but he still had some understanding of the Liaodong Army.

This Liaodong Army, if he says he will do it, will never save face for you, as long as he gives you three hours, then he will not give you Sanger hours and one minute.

What to do, people will give three hours, if you don't open the city gate, then you have to start a war, once the war starts, it's okay to hold it, if you can't hold it, then, there is only one price to get, so the officers and soldiers, all dead have no place to be buried.

It seems that they can only ease down a little time, Enze thought of this, and quickly stretched out his head, he wanted the commander of the Liaodong Army to give him a few hours, but stretched out his head, where was the shadow of the Liaodong Army under the city wall, and when he looked out, he had actually returned to the cavalry position.

When the adjutant general heard this terrifying threat, he trembled, looked at the artillery not far away, and added the words of the Lushun army just now. The adjutant general stepped forward and asked cautiously, "General, what do you see?"

"Hey." Enze sighed and looked outside the city, looking at the soldiers on the city wall looking at him expectantly. Taking a deep breath, Enze looked up at the sunny and blue sky: "Go back to the General's Mansion first." ”

Outside the city, there was a makeshift headquarters made of angry heads and some pine trees. Zhang Yi looked at the map carefully, and raised his eyes to look at Duan Qirui, who was sitting on the ammunition box and constantly playing with the pistol.

He didn't expect that Duan Qirui looked swishing, and without a mount, he was even more vicious than himself.

Originally, he thought about it for a day with his own intentions, but Duan Qirui insisted that he would not agree, so he gave three hours, is there more. This made Zhang Yi always feel a little uneasy, after all, if Sheng Jing's door was not opened after three hours, would he really open the cannon, and if the marshal was to blame him, who would dare to bear this responsibility. After all, what the marshal wanted was Sheng Jing, but he didn't give the order to really fire at Sheng Jing.

"I said, can you give someone a day, this three hours is really a bit rushed." Zhang Yi put down the pen in his hand. came to Duan Qirui's side and asked.

Duan Qirui glanced at Zhang Yi and stood up: "You can't give them a long time, it's not good for us if it's long." ”

"What do you mean?" Zhang Yi frowned.

Duan Qirui took out a telegram on his body: "I just received the telegram, the imperial army has been assembled, Shanhaiguan is afraid that it will attack Jinzhou in the near future."

"You mean, after taking Shengjing, you will pounce directly on Shanhaiguan?" Zhang Yi looked at the telegram, looked at the map, and asked suspiciously.

This, Duan Qirui shook his head. He is going to attack Shanhaiguan not now, but after the defenders of Shanhaiguan set out to attack Jinzhou, he will leave a division in Shengjing, and then lead the cavalry, take a shortcut, bypass Jinzhou, and then take Shanhaiguan and retreat from the imperial army.

Picked up the pen, drew the route of the march on the map, and then gave Zhang Yi his thoughts, Duan Qirui put down the pen in his hand: "The defenders of Shanhaiguan may set off at any time, and we can't be dragged to Shengjing, so I can only give them three hours." ”

"The problem is that if they don't open the door......"

"If you don't open the door, you will fight." Duan Qirui's eyes showed a fierce light. stared at Shengjing City in the distance.

Although the outside of the Lushun Headquarters is unusually hot, the war room, because the windows around it have been opened, is still quite cool inside.

In front of the huge map of Liaodong, Liu Jun was cocking Erlang's legs at this time, and together with Li He, he was listening to the information collected by Zhong Lin's intelligence department.

From Zhong Lin's intelligence, Liu Jun has already known that at present, the imperial court has concentrated nearly 30,000 troops at Shanhaiguan and is advancing towards Jinzhou under the command of Rong Lu, the commander of Jiumen, and the current forward is less than 100 kilometers away from Jinzhou.

Less than a hundred kilometers, if you pick up speed, a day, the battle will begin.

To be honest, Liu Jun didn't want to fight this war, after all, this was a war with China, a civil war, and he didn't want to fight a civil war.

In his heart, although the Japanese were beaten by himself, he knew that this was temporary, and the Japanese would make a comeback sooner or later.

Even if Japan accepted its fate and no longer had trouble with him, Liu Jun still arrived first, and on top of his head, there was a Russian bear.

This big bear may jump over and bite at any time. He wanted to recuperate, and then compete with the Russian bear, but now, the imperial court actually mobilized troops to attack him, and it was really painful to slaughter and sell good land.

Thinking that these were useless, Liu Jun smiled bitterly, stood up, and looked at Sheng Jing.

He knows that whether this war can be fought depends on whether Duan Qirui can take Shengjing, if Shengjing is taken, then the imperial court knows the news, and it is estimated that it will take a step back, and he will not dare to act rashly, but he can't take it. So what the imperial army will do, I really don't know.

Even if he took Shengjing, Liu Jun didn't dare to be careless, the ghost knew that if he took the location of someone's ancestral grave, the court would not fight with him.

Resign yourself to fate, Liu Jun closed his eyes and didn't think about these questions.

"Director, the Third Corps is in an emergency." An intelligence officer walked in.

As soon as he heard the telegram from the Third Corps, Liu Jun opened his eyes. looked at Zhong Lin, who was reading the message.
