Chapter 562: Leave the money to buy the road
Before Yang Xingguo and his entourage returned to the headquarters, they had no time to rest, and the holy decree of the imperial court came. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
More than a dozen internal guards and eunuchs stood in front of Yang Xingguo with a superior appearance, waiting for Yang Xingguo to kneel to pick up the child.
Let's not talk about the identity of Yang Xingguo's commander of the Liaodong Army, but the identity of the Liaodong Army from the next generation, except for the father who died as soon as he came at the beginning, Yang Xingguo has not knelt down to anyone.
Seeing that Britain did not mean to kneel to receive the order, the eunuch who took the lead immediately scolded: "Yang Xingguo, do you want to rebel? Not kneeling in the face of the divine decree is a great rebellion. Aren't you afraid that I will go back to the high court, and the court will send a large army to encircle and suppress your Liaodong army? ”
Yang Xingguo replied with a calm face: "I believe you won't!" ”
The eunuch who delivered the decree didn't know why Yang Xingguo was so confident and arrogant. Just as they were about to exit and continue to curse Yang Xingguo, Yang Xingguo waved his hand, and dozens of guards with rifles immediately surrounded them. With his rifle in his hand, he pointed all the black holes and wounds at them.
These people who came to deliver the decree were either Ouchi guards or Ouchi eunuchs, and they were all the closest people to Cixi and Guangxu.
In terms of status, they are very honorable. No matter where you go to the Qing Dynasty, you will be served like an ancestor.
However, in terms of guts, they are again the smallest.
Therefore, as soon as the guards with rifles appeared, a dozen people could not say a word because of nervousness.
What's more, beads of sweat the size of beans have appeared on his forehead, and even his legs can't help but tremble.
In the end, the big eunuch who had just spoken was pushed out by them and said: "Lord Yang, no, General Yang is angry, I will definitely not tell you about today's incident, see if you can let your subordinates put down their guns to prevent misfire." “
"It's okay to put the gun down, but don't forget the promise you just made. If you dare to be careful, you just go back to the capital and hide in the Ouchi Palace, and I will find you out and kill you!" I, Yang Xingguo, am not even afraid of the Japanese and Russians, let alone you timid little fish and shrimp! “
"Say it! What did the court send you over? “
After feeling the thick murderous aura emanating from Yang Xingguo and the dozens of guards around him, the cold sweat of the great eunuch flowed out again. Facing Yang Xingguo, he hurriedly replied: "I promise not to kneel and say it, and they won't say it either!" ”
.“ As for the holy decree of the imperial court, General Yang can see it for himself! Yang Zongbing, you have been rewarded by the imperial court as the second grade Liaodong General Soldier. In addition to General Sheng Jing, you have the highest official position and rank! ”
After reading the content of the holy decree, Yang Xingguo could hardly believe his eyes.
While being stunned for a moment, he hurriedly asked the eunuch in front of him: "When did the imperial court release so much, and it was sealed and rewarded!" This is absolutely not normal, there must be something else I don't know! ”
The eunuch hurriedly took out another holy decree and said, "Chief Yang Bing, there is another holy decree here, you will understand it when you read it!" ”
Soon, Yang Xingguo's face showed an expression of sudden realization. After thinking about it, he said to the eunuch in front of him: "You go back and tell the imperial court, and my Liaodong Army will definitely obey the order." But if the Japanese want to pass through our defense zone safely, the Japanese must also show sincerity. ”
Mukden City, together with the Japanese garrisons in several surrounding counties, had a total strength of more than 14,000 people.
As soon as Dashanyan received the restoration of the imperial court, the more than 14,000 Japanese troops left Mukden and ceded Mukden to the imperial army who came to receive it.
But the mighty Japanese army of more than 10,000 had just walked less than 30 miles, and a regiment of Liaodong Army blocked their way.
"Baga, hasn't the Qing Imperial Court already given them orders, why are they still blocking in front of us and not letting them leave! Immediately send someone to contact the Liaodong Army on the opposite side and ask them to get out of the way! The commander of the lieutenant general division led by the Japanese army ordered loudly in anger.
Soon, the staff officer Shaozuo, who was sent to make contact, hurried back.
Under the sharp gaze of the lieutenant general's division commander, he replied nervously: "Division commander, let's go from the Liaodong Army on the other side!" ”
When did the commander of the lieutenant general's division suffer such a grievance, if he had put it before, he would not have thought about it, and directly ordered the troops to launch an attack on the Liaodong Army in front of him, and directly killed all the way back.
But now it's different, not to mention the strong combat effectiveness of the Liaodong Army now, more than 10,000 people in their own hands, because the main force has been defeated continuously, has lost the courage to fight against the Liaodong Army.
In this case, no matter how dissatisfied the division commander is in his heart, no matter how angry he is, he can only hold it in his stomach.
Facing the young staff officer who was spitting and vomiting in front of him and didn't look like a soldier at all, the division commander who was already holding back his anger and had nowhere to vent was even more angry at this time.
When he raised his head, he scolded the staff officer Shao Zuo in front of him: "Baga, what else can't you say at this time?" What did the Liaodong Army say? How can we get out of the way and get out of here! ”
Shao Zuo hurriedly replied: "The Liaodong Army let us leave half of the rifles, light machine guns, heavy machine guns, as well as artillery and ammunition, and then let us pass through their defense area." Otherwise, we'll have to fight all the way back! ”
"Eight Ge Yalu, this is blackmail, this is blackmail. The Imperial Army of Japan will never accept this kind of blackmail, and we will fight back if it is a big deal. There are more than 10,000 of us, and I don't believe that so many of us can't fight back to Lushun! As if he had been insulted by something, the division commander scolded his subordinates.
The chief of staff next to him hurriedly stood up and persuaded: "Please think twice about the division commander, the main force equipped with heavy artillery brigades is not the opponent of the Liaodong Army, not to mention us...!" ”
"As long as we start fighting, I'm sure, we will be surrounded by the Liaodong Army immediately!"
"According to the commander-in-chief's report, the Liaodong Army is equipped with nearly two brigades and regiments with light and heavy artillery. When the time comes, these heavy artillery pieces alone will blow us all up! ”
"I implore the division commander to think twice, report the situation to the commander-in-chief, and let the commander-in-chief ask us to make a decision!"
A large number of veterans died in battle, and for a unit, the blow is absolutely very deadly.
Since its formation, the Manchu Army has been drawing veterans from the country, with a total strength of more than 300,000.
In the Russo-Japanese War, the Manchurian army lost more than 100,000 veterans. In several battles with the Liaodong Army, the Manchurian Army lost another 70,000 or 80,000 veterans.
The loss of more than 200,000 veterans not only had a fatal impact on the combat effectiveness of the Manchurian Army, but also had a great impact on the combat effectiveness of the entire Japanese army.
In Dashanyan's view, in the case of heavy losses of veterans, even if new recruits are added to the troops, the troops will not be able to recover to their pre-war strength in half a year, or even a year.
Therefore, for the current Dashanyan, every veteran is very important, not to mention the more than 10,000 veterans of the hundred battles who have been evacuated from Mukden.
In this case, as soon as the Liaodong Army's request reached Dashanyan's hands, Dashanyan ordered the troops to agree to the Liaodong Army's request, leaving half of the weapons and equipment as the money to buy through the Liaodong Army's defense area.
However, Oyama Iwa is not a loser.
On the one hand, he ordered the troops to leave the money to buy the road and quickly pass through the Liaodong military defense area. On the one hand, the country protested against the Qing court, demanding that the court compensate the empire for the road money paid to the Liaodong army.
Since the Liaodong Army is not easy to bully, the cowardly and incompetent court has become the target of Dashanyan's bullying without accident! (To be continued.) )
