Chapter 691: Full of Confidence

"Steward, go quickly, take out the fine tribute wine that I have treasured for ten years, take it out. Li Hongzhang, who understood the words, was full of excitement for more than ten years, and the Japanese had brought too many wounds to themselves, almost all of which were caused by this Japan, and among them, the United Fleet was the one who hurt himself the most.www.biquge.info

Back then, he formed the Beiyang Naval Division to prevent Japan, who would have thought that he would almost be wiped out by others later, if it wasn't for Liu Jun's timely action and taking over the Naval Division, I'm afraid that now, the Beiyang Naval Division would have long since ceased to exist.

Tribute wine. Liu Jun's eyes widened, he had never heard of Li Hongzhang still having tribute wine, and it was treasured for ten years.

It seems that today is the right time, Liu Jun, who has never liked to drink liquor, smiled slightly, today, he also has to taste what the wine that this emperor drinks. There is no sorghum wine to taste.

In the German Legation, in the office, since the First Fleet left Lushun, Klinder has always paid attention to the intelligence of the First Fleet, and he actually understands very well that the First Fleet set off this time to go to Sasebo and destroy the Combined Fleet, so as to create an opportunity for the future landing on the Japanese mainland, however, the strength of the Japanese Combined Fleet, he has never muttered.

A fleet that can wipe out the Pacific Fleet of Tsarist Russia, and a fleet that can almost wipe out the entire army of the Beiyang Naval Division, is still there in combat effectiveness, therefore, after departure, Clinder will often go to the Lushun Headquarters to discuss with Liu Jun, but in the past two days, because of the continuous rain, Clinder also stopped going to where Liu Jun is, but alone in the legation to deduce how to fight the battle after landing in Shikoku in the future.

There was a creak, the closed door was opened, and Clinde, who looked up, saw his nephew walking in, and behind him, it was actually Liu Jun's friend Zhong Lin.

What kind of wind blew Director Zhong Lin here, and Clinde, who put down the command pole in his hand, snapped his hands and said filial piety

Zhong Lin was ordered to tell Clinder that the combined ship had been destroyed, and to let Clint go to Li Hongzhang's mansion.

"Where is it, I have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, let me inform you that the combined fleet has been destroyed by our great German Liaodong Fleet yesterday, and today I am ordered by the head to let you go to Li Hongzhang's mansion to celebrate this great victory."

The combined fleet was completely destroyed, and Klinder was a little unconvinced, but when he saw Zhong Lin's eyes, it didn't look like a deception, and Clinder believed it.

Nodding slightly, Clint looked at Zhong Lin and said with a smile: "You wait a little, I'll put on some clothes and leave immediately." With that, Clinder had already turned around, left the office, went to his room, and began to get dressed.

In a small town 30 kilometers away from Tokyo, the major departments of Tokyo have been working here for many days, and the arrival of the original government departments has made the people of the town happy, however, in what an exciting thing, as long as the fresh energy is in the pot, it is not worth the penny.

No, the ordinary people in the small town who were originally jubilant and wanted to praise everyone have lost their interest in touting, but they should dig the soil for a day, go to work for work, and don't go to join in the fun.

The town government, the temporary official residence of the Prime Minister's Office. In Hirobumi Ito's office, after a busy day, Hirobumi Ito stretched his waist, put down the pen in his hand, and began to rub his sore arm vigorously.

After all this was done, he stood up and walked in front of Sasebo.

Liaodong Lushun fleet set off to attack Tanegashima and attack Sasebo, he had already gotten the news, Ito Hirobumi did not expect that Liaodong's reaction would be so fast, in less than half a month, he took Tanegashima in a row, and then attacked Sasebo.

However, although he knew that Liaodong was attacking Sasebo, Ito Yuheni was not in a hurry, he knew Sasebo's defense, and he also knew that Sasebo was not so easy to take, after all, there was a powerful combined fleet and the most coastal defense batteries in Japan.

Within three months, you don't want to take down my Sasebo, let alone destroy the fleet of my Great Japanese Empire, Ito Hirobumi, who looked at the map twice, thought confidently in his heart.

Is there any news from Sasebo? Hirobumi Ito, who turned around, asked after looking at the adjutant who was following him.

Sasebo has now cut off contact with him for nearly two days, and Ito reckons that something must have gone wrong.

"No, no telegrams have arrived since the last time I received a telegram from Sasebo." After the adjutant finished speaking seriously, he took the tea from the side and handed it to Ito Hirobumi.

It seems that they have to hurry up and rule it out. Thinking of this, Hirobumi Ito walked to the desk, laid out a piece of paper, wrote a few words, and handed it to the adjutant: "Give it to Minister Inoue."

The telegraph office, now located in the former post office, is also the current residence of Inoue Shin.

"Why can't I get through to Sasebo, can any of you tell me?" Early in the morning, there was already a wild scream from Inoue Xin in the post office.

He was also very anxious in his heart, and for a few days, Sasebo couldn't contact him at all, which made him extremely anxious.

No one can answer this question. Everyone bowed their heads and let Inoue Xin go crazy wherever he was.

Forget it, it seems that he is looking for the wrong object, seeing everyone's aggrieved faces, Inoue Xin shook his head helplessly, he has already investigated, there is no problem anywhere here, and where there is a problem, there is only Sasebo.

Could it be that Sasebo has been occupied by the Liaodong Army, Inoue Shin, who thought of this answer, shook his head vigorously, he would never believe that such a strong place as Sasebo would be wiped out in a short period of time.

Didi ...... Didi ...... There was a ticking telegraph sound, and after one of the telegraph personnel looked at it, he raised his head and said to Inoue Xin, who was already sitting in a chair in a daze, "Your Excellency, Sasebo telegram." ”

Fluttering, hearing this, Inoue Xin suddenly stood up and walked to the telegraph, and after looking at a person next to him, he immediately said, "Receive it immediately." “

Didi ...... The telegraph man who received the order sat down in his chair a few times, began to put on the earbuds, and recorded the numbers.

It took less than five minutes, so everything had been received and translated.

"Report a call from Ono, Chief of Staff of the Combined Fleet." After the telegraph man finished speaking, he handed the telegram in his hand to Inoue Xin.

Finally received their telegram, and Inoue Xin, who nodded, smiled slightly and took the telegram above.

With a click, Inoue Xin, who had read the telegram, actually dropped the teacup in his hand to the ground in fright.
