Chapter 555: News of Victory
The ships that received the order began to slowly turn their bows and drive diagonally towards the shore.
The boom is still the Hongzhang, and the first shot was fired again, and this cannon doesn't know where it will explode, but everyone knows that this cannonball is flying towards Tokyo City with a whistling sound.
An earth-shattering explosion sounded, and the senior officials in the Prime Minister's Office clearly felt that the earth was also trembling, this could not be an earthquake, of course, no one thought about it, because the Japanese who were used to the devastation of earthquakes, but they knew very well that there was no such explosion that pierced the eardrums in the earthquake.
What the hell is going on, Ito Hirobumi walked a few steps to the window of the prime minister's office, pushed them open, and he clearly saw that just to the northeast, a burst of fire was rising into the sky, mixed with billowing smoke, and was burning recklessly.
"Prime Minister, Prime Minister, it's not good." The voice of the attendant officer finally appeared in Ito Hirobumi's ears, and he ran out in a few steps, Ito Hirobumi grabbed the attendant officer who almost rolled in, grabbed his collar and widened his eyes and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"Liaodong Navy, Liaodong Navy, Liaodong Navy called."
With a bang, Ito Hirobumi felt a lot of bees flying in his ears, and bursts of golden stars appeared in his eyes.
"Baga Ya Road, how is it possible, how is this possible." Push the attendant away. Hirobumi Ito began to roar.
This is simply impossible, the Liaodong fleet did not go to Vladivostok, why did it appear here, why, Ito Hirobumi's eyes widened, hoping that someone would be able to answer his question.
Oh no, the furious Ito Hirobumi thought of something, and immediately rushed out like crazy.
The people around were not pigheads, and all of a sudden they thought of the palace. If the Imperial Palace is attacked, or if the Emperor appears in a variety of ways, I am afraid that these people will never want to see the sun the day after tomorrow.
There was another earth-shattering explosion, and Ito Hirobumi, who had already run to the street, had already seen that the sleeping people had been awakened by the violent explosion, and they were running out of the room in a panic, looking at the orange fire in the distance with a puzzled expression, not knowing what was happening.
Because I don't know the specific coordinates, although more than a dozen warships kept shelling, the shells that fell into the city were only a few after all, and most of the shells fell on the outskirts.
But even if that's the case, it's a job done.
"Report, report to the ships, the shells are about to be finished, please instruct." The signal soldier quickly ran over and reported loudly to Li He, who was picking up the binoculars to admire.
So quickly, Li He looked dissatisfied, and he admitted that he hadn't seen enough.
However, since the shells are almost finished, there must always be a little left, otherwise when there is an unexpected situation on the sea, I will not be able to let the warship ram it, which is impossible.
"The order was given to the ships to stop shelling and return to Arthur.
On the way here, the entire fleet did not sound a whistle, but now, more than a dozen warships began to slowly leave the sea of Tokyo under the leadership of the Hongzhang. and turned around and left arrogantly in the direction of Lushun.
Lushun Headquarters, the morning star in the east has appeared, and as soon as a glimmer of light appears in the sky, Liu Jun, who couldn't sleep, got up on the boat, and came to the headquarters early accompanied by Zheng Yiqian, waiting for Zhong Lin's news.
Since the departure of the First Fleet, Liu Jun has been thinking about the First Fleet all the time, but now, four days have passed, and there is still no news, which makes Liu Jun feel puzzled, and sometimes he wonders if the plan has failed. However, after careful consideration, he rejected this terrible prediction again, because it was something that he would not be able to do.
"Let's have something to eat." Knowing that Liu Jun hadn't eaten properly for a few days, Zheng Yiqian went out to a small stall outside after dawn and bought a few buns for Liu Jun, after all, it was still early before the time to eat.
"Where can I eat, this news doesn't come for a day, I just don't have an appetite, looking at the buns in front of me, Liu Jun really doesn't have any appetite.
"This Zhong Lin, tell me if there is any news, I won't see his figure for a few days." After speaking, Liu Jun added again.
Hey, as soon as she heard Liu Jun's words, Zheng Yiqian shook her head helplessly, indeed, she hadn't seen Zhong Lin's figure for almost two days.
Time passed little by little, the sun had already appeared in the sky, ten o'clock, looked up at the wall clock above, Liu Jun knew that today is estimated to have to wait for another day.
"Head" is a kind voice, and Liu Jun, who heard this voice, suddenly stood up from the chair, and quickly put down the teacup and rushed out the door.
As soon as he ran to the gate, he saw Zhong Lin, who was wearing an army uniform, raising his hand and running towards this side happily.
"Head, good news, good news, we succeeded." Thinking that there was a problem with Xiang's words, Zhong Lin immediately changed his words: "Li He succeeded." ”
It is indeed good news, Liu Jun, who heard this, ran out in a few steps and grabbed Zhong Lin: "You are talking once, you are talking about it once."
"Head, there was a message from the Tokyo Station in Japan, and at about one o'clock last night, they clearly heard the shelling from the shore defense battery for nearly an hour, and then, that is, at about 2:30, more than a dozen shells fell in the city of Tokyo."
Good, good, good. After saying a few good words in a row, Liu Jun grabbed the telegram in Zhong Lin's hand: "Hurry up, notify Piaoxianglou, a few tables, and I will personally pick up the wind for them when the time comes." Liu Jun, who laughed a few times, picked up the telegram and returned to the office. After a few glances, he grabbed a bun from the bowl next to him.
After a few big mouthfuls, when he stretched out his hand again, Liu Jun found that it was already empty.
"I haven't eaten yet." Liu Junxin put it down, and his appetite was also open. “
"Let's go, go out and eat." After laughing twice, Zheng Yiqian grabbed Liu Jun's arm and smiled.
Indeed, on this day, I will go out to eat, and I will eat a good meal, at least five dishes and two soups. Plus a good bottle of wine.
After taking two steps, Liu Jun remembered something, and suddenly stopped and said to Zheng Yiqian: "Go and call Zhong Lin." ”
What are you doing, they haven't rested for two days. Zheng Yiqian was full of doubts and didn't understand what Liu Jun was going to do.
"Go and call him, why don't you tell Clint such good news."
Cut, there is such a good excuse to go to eat Zheng Yiqian pouted, but he still ordered.
