It had been a few days since he arrived in Hue, but Lin Yiqing had only been in contact with the Vietnamese court and had not met the French. The Frenchman seemed to be very interested, and did not send anyone to disturb him, and the two sides maintained a slight peace very tacitly.

Lin Yiqing knew that the French also felt very tricky in the face of the current situation in Vietnam, so they behaved like this.

The fall of Hanoi was a serious defeat for the French, although most of the Hanoi garrison and military and political personnel, as well as the French and Vietnamese people in the concession area, managed to break through to Hue and suffered few casualties, most of the military supplies and heavy weapons in Hanoi (most of which were destroyed before the French army withdrew) fell into the hands of the Black Flag Army and the cadre army, and the entire city of Hanoi was slaughtered, the city was burned, and "the fire was not extinguished", which greatly discredited France's image as a protectorate of Vietnam.

Although the French army now occupies Hue, Hue is the national capital of Vietnam after all, and there are still tens of thousands of Vietnamese troops stationed, and the French army is at an absolute disadvantage in numbers.

If the Black Flag Army and the Cadre Army in Hanoi attacked Hue now, and the Dry Fleet attacked the French army at the same time, the French would face a catastrophe. If the French forces were expelled from Zhongqi, then the Nanqi that had already been in hand was likely to be lost, so in the face of Lin Yiqing, who was full of prestige, the French chose a low-key cold treatment.

But Lin Yiqing knows that the French will not keep a low profile for long.

After taking care of the Vietnamese court, the next step is the Black Flag Army, the many bandits in Beiqi, and the southwestern ministers who support the Black Flag Army behind them!

"Lord, the capital is coming. The imperial court sent Peng Yulin, the secretary of the military department, to Guangdong to supervise the division. "The people of Iwaneyama brought a telegram." It is estimated that it will arrive in a few days. ”

Lin Yiqing finished reading the telegram. Nodding.

"It seems that someone in the court is restless again, so it's okay, this time even he will clean it up." Lin Yiqing read the telegram and sneered.

"Peng Yulin didn't take the land route this time, but also took the sea route, and sat on the steam gunboat of the Nanyang Naval Division." "So this time it came quickly. ”

"No matter how fast he is, he is not as fast as our telegram." Lin Yiqing looked at the telegram date in his hand. Smiling slightly, "Qingbeiler sent the new notification ship that was just built?" ”

"Yes, the new notification ship 'Feijun' is in the harbor, do you want to go over and have a look?" "I've seen it, it's much smaller than the Flying Tiger. ”

"No need." Lin Yiqing had long been familiar with the performance of the new third-generation high-speed notification ship, so he didn't go to the harbor to watch.

The Qianguo Navy's third-generation high-speed notification ship "Feijun" adopts the linear design of a destroyer, which is the product of the "destroyer verification plan" set by Lin Yiqing, and its total length is 72 meters and its width is 7 meters. The draft is 2.8 meters, compared with the volume of more than 1,000 tons of the second-generation high-speed notification ship "Flying Tiger". The displacement of the "Feijun" was only 450 tons, but it was still not weakly armed, and it was armed with 3 75-mm Krupp naval guns and 4 40-mm Habekis single-barreled machine guns. Equipped with the heart of a domestic steam engine, the "Feijun" ran at a high speed of 24.8 knots during sea trials, close to 25 knots, which can be said to have reached the limit before the emergence of turbines. In addition, there is room for torpedo tubes in the design, and if it is changed to a destroyer, it can be equipped with two torpedo tubes.

This time, because the news is important, Lin Yiqing must be let know in time that it was Qingbeile, who is the prime minister, that will release the "Feijun" that has just been built in the name of "sea trials" and send a letter to Lin Yiqing. At the same time, it also means to show strength to the French.

"Is there any news from Qu Feipeng?" Lin Yiqing asked.

"Not yet, but someone has already been sent to contact Hanoi." The Iwane mountain people replied, "I guess there will be news soon." ”

"It is estimated that at this time, Qu Feipeng and they have already fought with the Black Flag Army." Lin Yiqing thought for a while and said, "I hope that the people he brought will teach Zhang Xun better." ”

"Don't worry, the lord is the elite of our Satsuma army, and he will definitely build a strong army for the lord." The people of Ikanyama said with confidence.

"Yes, in this case, Hanoi City is afraid that it will be a river of blood." Lin Yiqing sighed, "It's okay, the damn ones are all dead, let's just rebuild a Hanoi city and move a group of people over." ”

"That's what the lord said." The people of Yangen Mountain understood what Lin Yiqing meant by "moving another batch of people", and nodded with a smile.

Although it was only a brief conversation between the two people, it was a bloody storm for Hanoi City.

Hanoi City, a suburb.

Before reaching the forest, Liu Renyi let go of his footsteps, trotted briskly, and the heavy backpack beat his back, and it hurt raw, no matter what, there were three hundred taels of gold in it.

Liu Renyi's knees felt the two ribs of the horse fall together evenly and rhythmically.

The road ahead is no longer clear. He now had to trust the horse, its sense of smell. It's a good horse, capable of throwing out every nailed hoof with lightning and knowing in advance where to fall.

The rain hit his face, and his cheeks were cold. In the darkness, only the rich smell of the humid air reminded him of where he was galloping. The heavy smell of rotting stems and leaves in the grass wafted over and was replaced by the bitter smell of the paddy fields...... Liu Renyi galloped into a spring sowing field, and further on, a meadow overgrown with tall regenerated grass, and the refreshing fragrance of wild sesame seeds and chamomile wafted from the meadow. The woods swooped down on him like a black behemoth.

The horse flew into the woods, as if galloping into the vast night. It was pitch black, and even the horse's eyes couldn't see, and Liu Renyi only felt that a patch of trees rushing to the side of the road was pressing down on him like two walls. The sound of the horse's hooves, from right to left, from left to right, echoed, and the echo was heard far through the woods, and probably the sound of the horses' hooves could be heard a mile or two away.

Liu Renyi saw a slight light on his head, and the heat of the jungle was rolling towards him and the galloping horses under his seat. Even on rainy days, there is a lot of heat here.

Ten days ago, he had been lying alone in this grove; Look up at the sky; Enjoy the comfort and tranquility. There used to be an antelope with slender legs and a light body. The four hooves barely touched the ground. Liu Renyi used a repeating rifle to shoot accurately. Bullets are like knives. Poke it in the heart. It was an unusually wonderful moment for him.

But now everything has changed.

The horse carried him into the woods, and the rain whined on the thick leaves, like an army of cockroaches that covered the sky and the earth in the dark, ready to take off. He prostrated himself on the rifle strapped to the saddle, lest the presumptuous branch whip his face. Blackened branches like eagle's talons swept by. The sound of black ominous birds is constantly coming...... Liu Renyi used the whip to pull the seat and dismount slightly, very light, very light, it willingly sped up, and its whole body seemed to be stretched into a string.

The saddle bounced beneath him, and the backpack beat rhythmically against his shoulder blades like a hammer.

The grove soon swept backwards with a whining sound, like ice receding from the riverbank. Liu Renyi is now speeding through a dense forest of swampy and mint fragrances.

Could it be that he broke in? Liu Renyi thought to himself.

The dark night mixed with the damp air, beating his eyes and making his eyes clear and tearful. But he was now completely immersed in the passion of running wildly.

The horse ascended to a hill. The horse's hooves were sunk in the yellow sand, but the speed was still the same. On top of the hill. There was a burst of heating, but after a few minutes, Liu Renyi went into the damp and cold forest again. It is surrounded by swamps, and the road winds over an earthen embankment. He left the saddle in an instant, leaned up, and "snapped", and a twig ripped off his straw hat. A frenulum under the jaw was also not brought together. But I can't stop! His hair was blown by the wind and soaked in the rain, forget it, it's just a Vietnamese hat, tell him to hell, it's already good if his eyes are intact. Come on! Come on!

In the darkness ahead, from the middle of the road, two discordant shouts rang out: "Stop! Hold it! ”

That is, what the hell are they coming...... Waiting for him here!

It was as if the rain had hit the inside of the clothes, causing a layer of goosebumps on the skin immediately. Liu Renyi's hand instinctively raised the whip and slammed under the horse's belly, close to the most sensitive part of the thigh.

The horse collapsed, like a flat-firing cannonball, and flew forward. The strong wind blew Liu Renyi's head. Behind, far away, clods of earth raised by horses' hooves fell to the ground with a clattering sound.

"Stop!" The voice was already a hoarse, stern shout from the hailstones of falling dirt.

Liu Renyi was at a loss and delayed for a few seconds, and these few seconds, at this moment, were his entire life.

"Bang! Bang! The sound of a rifle shot sounded behind Liu Renyi's back. Bullet after bullet pierced the air around his ears and whistled past.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! "Another rifle fired. And at this juncture, the road has made a fatal sharp turn. Liu Renyi only felt that the horse under the seat leaned slightly, and his body left the saddle, and he fell slightly to the side, helping the horse to turn around.
