Ito Hirofumi roared and asked Inoue Xin to give an order, this is not to blame him, the relationship between Liaodong and Liangguang is a mystery until now, not afraid of 10,000 in case, if the Guangdong Navy Division suddenly mobilizes warships to the north to be incorporated into the Beiyang Naval Division, then the combat effectiveness of the Beiyang Navy Division will be doubled all of a sudden, besides, although the Fujian Navy Division is now weak, but there is also an armored cruiser, if Liu Jun mobilizes the Fujian Navy Division, then the pressure on the combined fleet in the future is not ordinary.

Therefore, in order for the Combined Fleet to quickly catch up with the Beiyang Naval Division in tonnage, he had to order the Japanese warships that were still on trial voyage in Britain to immediately return to China and be incorporated into the Combined Fleet.

At the Lushun Headquarters, Liu Jun put down the pen in his hand and began to watch the current situation.

The war has been going on for two days, Wang Shizhen is worthy of being a fierce general, and actually completely defeated the first town of the Qing army early the next morning, not only took Lulong County, but also pursued all the way, and chased the first association of the Qing army to the west bank of Shaheyi, and now Tie Liangzheng is leading the first association in the area of Shaheyi, relying on Shahe, building a position, preparing to block the Qing army here.

"Straw bales." In a faint voice, Liu Jun smiled slightly and said two words.

"What's the matter, who are you talking about?" Zheng Yiqian, who was on the side, walked up and asked suspiciously.

Liu Jun looked up and saw that it was Zheng Yiqian, and smiled slightly, nothing, I said Tie Liang. ”

Tie Liang, Zheng Yiqian was even more confused, she didn't understand military affairs, but she still knew some. Judging from the map, Tie Liang relied on the surrounding terrain to build a defense line on the other side of the Shahe River, which seemed very reasonable, and he couldn't understand why Liu Jun would say that Tie Liang was a straw bale.

"Yesterday, you didn't say that Shaheyi could resist, why did you say straw bales today."

This one? Liu Jun blushed: "That was yesterday." Seeing Zheng Yiqian's doubts, Liu Jun smiled slightly and said his thoughts.

In this area of Shahe, the terrain is flat, which is not conducive to defense and is conducive to attack, and in common sense, Shahe Station is in front of Shahe and can indeed garrison troops and people, but there is a problem, that is, it is autumn now. It's not summer.

The water level of the Shahe River will skyrocket if the summer rain continues, relying on the Shahe River to build a position, not to mention that it is not a means, but now it is their September, the water level of the river is dropping, and the Shahe River is originally a small river.

In addition, the area around the Sand River was all hard and rocky, and it was impossible to dig trenches, so the soldiers had to build their positions based on the natural terrain or fortifications on the beach of the Sand River.

No matter what Tie Liang does, he dares to guarantee that Wang Shizhen will not be able to break through the Shaheyi defense line in less than a day, and then go straight to Fengrun.

"I say, how do you say he's a straw bale." After listening to Liu Jun's analysis, Zheng Yiqian nodded, and had nothing to do, Zheng Yiqian pointed to the map and asked, if it were you, where would you build a position to block Wang Shizhen.

This question couldn't stop Liu Jun, and with a slight smile, Liu Jun pointed his finger at Yutian.

Yutian has Yutian River, Matou Mountain, and Luo Mountain. Caiting Bridge and other natural hazards, this place is, the easiest place to block.

With a cold snort, Zheng Yiqian glanced at her: "Fortunately, you are not a general of the imperial court, otherwise Wang Shizhen would have to carry you on hand." ”

"That's, don't look at your husband is the one, Liu Jun, who is never modest, smiled.

"Head. Why the hell is Japan going to make trouble? In the midst of the noise, Zhong Lin's voice was howling outside.

Before Liu Jun could turn around, Liu Jun saw Zhong Lin pick up a telegram and rush over as if his butt was on fire.

"The Japanese station has sent a secret telegram, and Ito Hirobumi is summoning the War Department. Admiralty. As well as a meeting of the Cabinet of Ministers, in addition, according to the intelligence of the British station, two Japanese battleships, three specialist cruisers have set sail. ”

Grass mud horses. When Liu Jun heard the news, he immediately scolded angrily in his heart.

If you start a war with the imperial court by yourself, Japan will not be able to sit still, it is really not a thing.

"What's the matter?" Bowing his head slightly, Liu Jun looked at Zhong Lin who was standing in front of him.

"Nope." With a slap on his shoulder, Zhong Lin shook his head.

Come and don't get along with non-gentlemen. Since Japan is so faceless, then it will not be unguarded against Japan.

"Start the pig catching program."

The pig catching plan, Zheng Yiqian and Zhong Lin both widened their eyes in surprise, the pig catching plan is a large-scale plan of the Liaodong Intelligence Bureau in the past two years, mainly to target Japan, and at this time, the pig catching plan was suddenly launched, which proves that Liu Jun is not able to attack Japan.

"Head, you're not going to fight Japan, are you?" Swallowing his saliva, Zhong Lin asked cautiously.

"Fart, who said I was going to move him, Lao Tzu wanted him to become blind." In the midst of resentment, Liu Jun turned around and walked out of the headquarters.

Shaheyi, a small town under the jurisdiction of Lulong County, originally there were no troops stationed here, but now, there are Qing troops everywhere, many Qing troops wander in groups on the streets, but the people in the town are closed, and the chickens and dogs are restless.

To the east of Shaheyi, in a small courtyard of the landlord, it has now become the temporary headquarters of the first town.

In the hall, it was originally the living room of the landlord's house, but now it has been changed into a war room, and there are maps and Qing army staff officers everywhere, and from time to time, a soldier hurriedly walked out, got on a military horse, and began to deliver military information to the front line.

In the wings, Tie Liang, the president of the first town and the president of the first co-ordinator, kept walking back and forth in his temporary room.

"Damn, Wang Shizhen, this bastard." The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and Tie Liang suddenly smashed the copper basin in the room to the ground. He hates Zhang Zhidong now, and Wang Shizhen is even more so.

The defense line that he had worked so hard to arrange in Lu Long was broken through in one day, not only that, but half of his elite 3,000 cavalry were wiped out by the cavalry in Wang Shizhen's hands. If he hadn't ordered a timely retreat, I'm afraid that all of the First Association would have been swallowed up.

I wanted to rely on the surrounding terrain to block the attack after withdrawing from Lulong, but I didn't expect that Wang Shizhen's troops pursued so tightly and pursued themselves all the way to Shaheyi. If it weren't for Shahe, I'm afraid Wang Shizhen would still have to pursue, and he wouldn't have time to rest.

Now, his First Association has finally gained a firm foothold, gathered the defeated troops, stationed in the area of Shaheyi, and blocked Wang Shizhen's troops on the east bank according to Shahe.

"My lord, today the Liaodong artillery suddenly shelled our beach position, and our army lost more than 150 people." An inappropriate word sounded, and Tie Liang didn't react after hearing it, just nodded, turned around and motioned for the staff officer to go out.

It's not the first time I've heard this news, I'm immune, since I arrived at Shaheyi, every few hours, I've been shelled.

Tie Liang wanted to withdraw, but he didn't dare, and if he withdrew in front, it would be Fengrun. There is no danger to be guarded. If you retreat to Yutian, you can defend it then, but where it is too close to Beijing, once the Liaodong Army breaks through the defensive line, then Beijing will be dangerous. Therefore, he did not dare to withdraw, and even if he wanted to withdraw, he would have to wait until the Second Association had completed the construction of the defensive line in the Yutian area.

Today, he has ordered the Second Association in Tongzhou to immediately dispatch to build a defensive line in the area of Yutian, and he also wants the imperial court to send a telegram, hoping that the imperial court will send reinforcements, otherwise, he may not be able to withstand the attack of a corps of the Liaodong Army.

On the east bank of the Shahe River, on a relatively high mountain, in the bunker that had just been built, Wang Shizhen was picking up a telescope to observe the situation on the other side, while Luo Dacheng was climbing on the map, constantly drawing.

"Lao Wang, this Tieliang doesn't need to let Yutian Tianhai risk, why build a defense line here?" Raising his head slightly, Luo Dacheng looked at Wang Shizhen, who was observing the enemy's situation.

Wang Shizhen snorted coldly: "He was forced to do so." ”

had no choice but to do so, which made Luo Dacheng not understand, and there were things that made Tie Liang have no choice but to do so.

Wang Shizhen put down the telescope in his hand and returned to the map, pointed to Tongzhou and said: "If I guessed correctly, now the Second Association of Tongzhou has set off to Yutian to build a defensive line, and the reason why he is here to block our army is to give the Second Association time and time to Beijing." ”

Give Beijing time, Luo Dacheng seemed to understand something, bowed his head slightly, and Luo Dacheng raised his head in surprise: "You mean Beijing is going to run." ”

"Stop, I didn't say that." Wang Shizhen was taken aback, he didn't dare to say this, otherwise there would be no way to live his life in the future.
