Listening to Chen Yucheng's words, Ruilin glanced at that Habakev. He thinks that people like Habakyev are simply boring and self-deprecating. What's wrong with you Russians? Aren't they all ready to paddle the river before they come? Isn't that the best solution you've ever designed? Watching the Qing armies south of the Yellow River being wiped out one by one, you sit idly by, oh, now it's on your own heads, hehe, do you remember the pain this time? Grandma, it's early and late. Since it is a river rowing, the south of the Yellow River is naturally the world of other people, and you don't leave there, don't beat you? It's no wonder if I don't hit you.

In the eyes of the current Manchu officials, others may not know much about what the Russians are like, and they really regard the Russians as pillars. However, he knows what is going on with the Russians. There are more Russians who bullied those people in the Qing Dynasty, but they really have to meet hard stubble, and they are wilting than anyone else in his grandmother. When I was trapped in Chaohu Lake, those who shouted for surrender at the beginning were not all some bullshit advisers from your Russia? Thinking of this, Ruilin couldn't help but feel a little gloating.

To be honest, to this day, Ruilin doesn't believe that if the Yellow River is really fought, it can be defended. In particular, the eastern section of the Yellow River, that is, the section where the Russians were responsible for guarding it, he had carefully observed it more than once, and in his opinion, in addition to the fact that the Russians had more guns and cannons, in terms of actual combat effectiveness, I am afraid that it was not even half of Li Hongzhang's. Because, at least Li Hongzhang and his subordinates will dare to play with their lives when the time comes.

Alas, if you want to keep the Qing Dynasty north of the Yellow River, I am afraid that there is no better way than this negotiation. But from this point of view, Ruilin still has some gratitude to the Russians. Of course, at this time, he didn't know how angry the Queen Mother in the Forbidden City was about the peace talks. However, even if he knew, he would be disapproving of the Queen Mother, who seemed to be a little ignorant. The merchant girl doesn't know the hatred of the country, and she doesn't know how cruel the battlefield is, she can't beat others, and if you don't talk about it, then what else do you want to do?

The south section of Nanmen Street, the main north-south main road in Jinan City, is more than 100 meters away from the provincial government, and the west side of the road is the Jinan Garrison Headquarters of the Red Army of the Celestial Empire and the General Headquarters of the Red Third Front Army.

“…… In accordance with the deployment of the Second Front Army, the Luyu-Anhui guerrilla columns of Zhang Lexing and Gong Deshu, which were concentrated and expanded into the 31st and 32nd Red Armies, as well as the Red Fourth Army, will be transferred to the Yellow Control Site one after another. In Lin Haifeng's living room, Zuo Zongtang was telling in detail about the situation that had just been summed up, "On the line from Lingbao to Mengjin, the Red 22nd, 23rd, and 24th armies, on the one hand, helped the local people resume production, and on the other hand, began to repair and collect various ships and train sailors. In the area of the First Army, the main forces of the Red Ninth and Twenty-seventh Armies, except for the Red Fifth Army, went to the construction site of the river control on the Western Front. On the eastern front, the Red 28th Army advanced to Zouping, and the Red Eighth Army arrived at Guangrao and Boxing, where, according to Li Shixian's report, the damage to civilian ships there was slightly better than in Henan. Chen Yucheng mentioned that after the end of the Weihai Campaign, it seems that the 1st Red Army and the Teaching Brigade should be immediately transferred to the Guangrao front line to rest and recuperate, so as to adapt to the situation there......"

After listening to Zuo Zongtang's narration, Lin Haifeng nodded, "Chen Yucheng's construction is good, pulling the Red First Army and the Teaching Brigade directly to Guangrao and Boxing can have two effects, one is to continue to threaten Tsarist Russia, so that they can honestly hold down the heads of those Manchu Qing people and come to Jinan to negotiate seriously and well." The second is to attract their attention and provide convenience for the main force of the First Front Army to cross the river in the future. ”

After speaking, he thought for a while, "Today is the 20th day of May in the Gregorian calendar of our Celestial Empire, so let's immediately issue an order to Zeng Tianyang, the overseer of Shandong, and Tan Shaoguang and Wei Zheng on the front line, after the end of the Dengzhou and Weihai battles, the two divisions of the Red Tenth Army will form two garrison areas in Dengzhou and Weihai. After that, the Red First Army moved to Qingzhou and Boxing, the Teaching Brigade was stationed in Guangrao, and the Red Tenth Army was stationed in Weixian County for rectification. The additional troops transferred by the high command to us will be transferred to them on a priority basis. In addition, an official letter was sent to the High Command requesting that in view of the fact that Luo Xuan had returned to Beijing to take up the post of director of the Navy Department, and Yang Fuqing had taken up the post of governor and superintendent of Henan Province, we proposed that Wei Jun should be appointed deputy commander-in-chief of the Second Front Army and commander of the Red 23rd Army, Zhang Lexing should be appointed deputy commander-in-chief of the Second Front Army and commander of the Red 31st Army, and Gong Deshu should be appointed chief of staff of the Second Front Army and commander of the 32nd Red Army. ”

Hearing Lin Haifeng's several personnel appointments, Zeng Guofan coughed. He knew very well that the promotion of Zhang Lexing and Gong Deshu was the reason, the deputy commander of the Red 31st Army was Zhang Zongyu, and the deputy commander of the Red 32nd Army was Ren Huabang and Niu Hongsheng, all of whom came out of the Red Army University, and it was only because of their qualifications that they were not directly appointed as army commanders, and the promotion of Zhang Lexing and Gong Deshu was to prepare for their promotion in the future. And Wei Jun is different, Wei Jun is Wei Changhui's younger brother. Wei Changhui Tianjing's rebellion was ruined in the end, even if Wei Jun was not involved, he could not be given power, this kind of person would have to have different intentions sooner or later.

"Did the Senate have something to say?" Lin Haifeng looked at Zeng Guofan with a smile.

"No, no," Zeng Guofan looked at Zuo Zongtang, Li Kaifang, and Hou Yutian in the room, and then smiled at Lin Haifeng, "I just think that too many part-time jobs don't seem to be very good." ”

"Hehe, Senator Zeng is talking about Wei Jun, right?" Lin Haifeng took a puff of the pipe in his hand and nodded, "Actually, there are some things that everyone will understand, and sometimes you still have to get it if you walk the curve." The merits of Ren Huabang and Zhang Zongyu are obvious to all, and they are fully capable of commanding an army alone. However, they are not old Jintian after all, and they are improving quickly, and it is difficult to guarantee that there will be people who are unbalanced, so they have to transition. But for the Wei Jun brothers, this part-time job is necessary. Why? It's because of the original North King. Wei Jun was a general, and his performance in the Battle of Luoyang was excellent, and his promotion to deputy commander-in-chief was a recognition of him, and continuing to serve as the commander of the Red 23rd Army showed the Celestial Empire's incomparable trust in him. Even if it is a relative, people are different, and we don't engage in strain. In fact, judging from the past of the North King, he is also a big hero, although there were things that later made everyone sad, but his credit is still a credit, it is undeniable, and it cannot be denied. The reason is very simple, when we revise history in the future, who can bypass the king of the north back then? ”

"Yes, back then, the Webster family raised thousands of people in the Jintian regimental camp, and all the family assets were donated to the Celestial Empire, and the credit was second to none. Although later the king of the north betrayed the oath of the Jintian regimental camp, after all, it was not to surrender to the Manchu Qing. Besides, in the current Celestial Empire government and the Red Army, there are many Wei clansmen who are fighting side by side with us. Li Kaifang nodded approvingly, "Wei Zheng's stubborn defense of Luzhou last year is a model. ”

"That's right." Lin Haifeng nodded at Li Kaifang, and then looked at Zuo Zongtang and Zeng Guofan, "We just want to suspect people, and use people without suspicion." Of course, I still understand the intentions of Senator, and that is also for the sake of heaven. ”

Zeng Guofan's face turned slightly red.

"Hehe, the next thing is for you to sing more."

"Me?" Zeng Guofan raised his head and looked at Lin Haifeng puzzled.

"Of course," Lin Haifeng smiled, "Ruilin is here, this is to find out, and it is also to delay time." According to our previous estimates, Cixi in Beijing would definitely not approve of negotiating with us, so it would be difficult for them to organize a negotiation delegation on the 30th. So, let's pretend we don't know anything, emphasizing the importance of time on the one hand, and going with the flow on the other. You have accompanied them around Jinan to see the majesty of our Red Army, and see what kind of attitude the common people have towards us just a few days after we have come to Jinan. By the way, Minister Hou, when will the heinous guys who have been arrested in Jinan go on trial? ”

"The day after tomorrow," Hou Yutian replied with a smile, "I'll be waiting for them." ”

"Okay, Senator Zeng will accompany them to visit when the time comes." Lin Haifeng smiled and nodded, "As for our negotiation conditions, there is nothing for the time being, we only ask them to put it forward first, whether our product is suitable or not." Of course, it would be better to answer them vaguely and give them a little illusion. Just like your article in yesterday's "Frontline" newspaper, "Yiqiē makes way for production to save itself," it has made the atmosphere of peace talks thicker. ”

"Let's show our cards at the end and make them uncomfortable." Zuo Zongtang smiled, "However, Director Lin, the problem I am considering is that from June to October, it is the autumn season of the Yellow River, and the river water will also skyrocket. We have to face the trouble of crossing the river and the inconvenience of fighting in the winter in the future. ”

"Time, the key is time." Lin Haifeng nodded, "The dozen or so warships we newly purchased from the Netherlands have arrived in Shanghai, and in two months, they will be able to be put into operation, and at that time, our initiative will be greater." ”

After speaking, he looked at Li Kaifang, "It is necessary to coordinate the timely supply of various materials to ensure that the preparations for the river crossing of all departments are carried out smoothly." ”

He looked at Hou Yutian again, "Ruilin and their people must do a good job of protecting them, and in addition, call your baby to go and provide him with more convenience." ”

"Yes." Hou Yutian understood that the "baby" mentioned by the director referred to Zhou Degui.

Zuo Zongtang looked at Lin Haifeng, "If in the shortest possible time, on the one hand, the army can completely solve the problem of the Hui people in Shaanxi and Gansu, then our initiative will be even greater." ”

"Not bad," Lin Haifeng nodded, "It's better to be like this." ”

The Tsarist Russian warships in Weihai Harbor and the two batteries on the south bank that had changed hands to the Red Army of the Celestial Empire fired at each other from dawn until noon, and the ghosts and gods were shocked. The Ridao Battery, under the heavy artillery bombardment of the Red First Army's heavy artillery regiment, first collapsed. Immediately afterwards, the forts at the south and north entrances of Liugong Island also began to be hit by the heavy artillery of the Red Army.

Major General Barushka almost felt that the last "last resort" moment had arrived, but at this time, several good news arrived, and he saw hope.

From the early hours of the morning, the 1st Regiment Colonel Liunansky organized a continuous battle for Nagu Mountain, the western barrier of the Weihai Acropolis, which lasted for a morning, and despite the heavy price, finally succeeded in recovering Naigu Mountain. With the help of the successful counterattack in the west, Major General Dasamov suddenly became bold, and then began to organize forces to counterattack Tiger Mountain, Foding Mountain, and Xianguding. Not only that, although the Longmiaozui and Lujiaozui forts in the hands of the Taiping Red Army are still roaring wildly, from a distance, the banners of the Taiping Red Army on the high ground on the south bank have also begun to move south.

Barushka knew that it must be the troops he had placed in Rongcheng and Wendeng that had already killed the Taiping Red Army. God, God can't starve to death! At this moment, Barushka was injected with stimulants, and suddenly became agitated.
