After Li Hongzhang left the palace, he immediately set off to return to Tianjin, and after returning to Tianjin, regardless of the fatigue of the journey, he immediately met with Yuan Shikai, and informed Yuan Shikai to go to Quanzhou immediately as the assistant minister of the Korean military affairs, and by the way to Ren Chao to pass the decree, although Yuan Shikai was unwilling, but under the holy decree, he naturally did not dare to resist the decree, but he deliberately delayed time along the way, Tianjin is thousands of miles away from Quanzhou, and it will take a few days at the earliest, not to mention that Yuan Shikai also deliberately delayed, naturally it is impossible to arrive so quickly, this matter is not listed for the time being.

On this day, Ren Chao was patrolling the barracks, and suddenly a personal soldier came to summon him, and Quan Qizhun came to ask for a meeting, and it seemed that there was an urgent military report, and Ren Chao could only hurriedly return to the Chinese army's big tent.

"Lord Ren, it's not good!" As soon as Quan Qizhun saw Ren Chao coming back, he immediately got up and responded, and said with an anxious face.

"What's going on, General Quan, don't worry, take your time!" Ren Chao said with a smile.

"Lord Ren, I just received the latest information that about 5,000 people from the Fifth Division of the Japanese Invaders have landed in Busan." Jeon Junzhun hurriedly said.

"Busan?" Ren Chao glanced at the map and couldn't help frowning, Busan is located on the southeast coast of the Korean Peninsula, and the little devil landed here, and on the way north, he will inevitably solve the big problem of Jeonju first, so as to free up his hands to deal with the main force of the Qing army in Pyongyang.

"The soldiers are coming, and the water is coming! Since the little devil dares to come, I will tell him to come and go. General Quan, we must not sit idly by, you go back and immediately mobilize troops to prepare to go south, and I will personally lead the main force of my Tiger Ben Army to fight side by side with you, you can rest assured! Ren Chao said with a smile.

"With the help of the heavenly soldiers of adults, why worry about the immortality!" Quan Qizhun was overjoyed when he heard this, to be honest, Quan Qizhun was really afraid that Ren Chao would immediately lead troops north to Pyongyang as soon as he saw that the Japanese were powerful. Ren Chao can withdraw, but he can't withdraw, the power of the Dongxue Party is mainly in the south of Korea, and if he retreats north, it is tantamount to giving up his old nest. Besides, there are more than 100,000 people in Quanjun, although the momentum is huge, but these people are all nearby peasants, and they are willing to join him in the army to fight against the Japanese under the call of righteousness, but how many people are willing to let them give up their family property, abandon their wives, and retreat north to Pyongyang? Quan Qizhun really has no bottom in his heart. Now hearing Ren Chao's assurance, how can Quan Qizhun not like it, Quan Qizhun knows that with his Dongxue Army, he is powerless to resist the elite troops of the Japanese Invaders, because although the Dongxue Army is numerous, but to be honest, it is just a group of rabble, which Quan Qizhun is also very clear in his heart, and now with the help of Ren Chao's Tiger Army, Quan Qizhun also has confidence.

"Lord Ren, there's one more thing." Quan Qian was so stunned that he didn't know what to say for a while.

"General Quan, if you have anything to say, everyone is a friend of life and death, why bother to be so twisted." Ren Chao said with a smile.

When Quan Qizhun heard Ren Chao say that everyone is friends in life and death, a trace of joy couldn't help but appear on his face. In Quan Qizhun's heart, he was naturally very happy to be able to climb the big tree of Ren Chao, "Lord Ren, you also know that our Dongxue Army is poorly equipped, and now that the big war is imminent, you can see if you can allocate a batch of arms to us, and the whole army is naturally grateful." After Quan Qizhun finished speaking, he lowered his head a little embarrassed.

"This~" Ren Chao couldn't help frowning, and said with an embarrassed face, "General Quan, you also know that our arms are all shipped from China, and the distance is already far away, and now that the Japanese invaders have occupied Seoul and other places, the transportation is even more difficult." To tell the truth, I'm not rich now, but since the whole general has spoken, I still have to give the face of the whole general, and I will immediately make up 300 rifles from the army for you, and 30,000 rounds of ammunition! You see, you have to understand my difficulties! ”

"In this way, on behalf of the whole army, thank you Lord Ren for your generous gift!" Jeon was overjoyed and bowed in thanks.

Ren Chao said with a smile, "General Quan doesn't have to be polite, when the new batch of supplies arrives, I will definitely give priority to replenishing your army, but the top priority is to defeat the invading Japanese first." ”

"Please rest assured, my lordship, I will immediately go back and deploy troops and horses to meet the Japanese invaders!" Quan Qizhun assured loudly, then bowed to Ren Chao, turned around and strode away. This is the third time that Ren Chao has given arms to Dongxuejun, counting the three hundred rifles this time. The Dongxue Army has 1,500 new-style fast robberies, which can be said to have greatly increased its strength.

"! Another 300 rifles were sent, and it was really distressing! Looking at the back of Quan Qizhun leaving, Ren Chao couldn't help but shake his head, "It's worth it to have more than 100,000 cannon fodder!" A sly smile appeared at the corner of Ren Chao's mouth.

"Report~! Returning to my lordship, the Korean soldier Cao Shen sentenced Lord Yan Shiyong to see him outside the tent! At this time, a pro-soldier walked in and said loudly. After Ren Chao brought the king of Korea to Jeonju, Yan Shiyong and Li Xi were appointed as the soldiers and commanders, and the general of the anti-Japanese army was responsible for the unified command of all the officers and troops in Korea.

"Call him in!" Ren Chao said casually.

"Lord Ren, something is wrong! The Japanese have landed in Busan, with more than 5,000 troops, and I am afraid that they will soon be heading north, and Jeonju will inevitably bear the brunt of the attack! Yan Shiyong said anxiously as soon as he came in.

"Yes!" Ren Chao nodded noncommittally, "I already know about this matter." I don't know if Lord Yan has a good strategy to defend against the enemy? ”

"A good way to defend against the enemy?" Yan Shiyong sweated in a hurry, where did he have any good strategies to defend against the enemy! If it weren't for Ren Chao's Tiger Ben Army, this guy would have abandoned the city and fled with his officers and soldiers. Although there is no good way to defend against the enemy, Yan Shiyong is an old oilman who has been in the officialdom for decades after all, and he has a countermeasure as soon as his eyes roll, and he said to Ren Chao very respectfully, "The only way to do the lowly position is to look forward to the Lord Ren, and what Lord Ren says to do, he will do what he does." ”

Ren Chao couldn't help but feel a burst of disdain in his heart, North Korea is actually this kind of wine bag and rice bag, no wonder it is so corrupt, in fact, the Qing Dynasty in front of him is not much better than North Korea, if it weren't for the large land and large population, I'm afraid it would be inferior to North Korea. Ren Chao shook his head with a smile and said, "Lord Yan, as a member of the first rank of North Korea, is fully responsible for the anti-Japanese affairs. How can I, a little general, command you! ”

"Lord Ren's words are different! Lord Ren is a minister sent by the Celestial Empire, and the lowly rank and others only have the share of bowing down and obeying orders, so don't shirk it! Yan Shiyong said very respectfully.

Ren Chao didn't bother to talk nonsense with this kind of person, walked up to Yan Shiyong and said, "Lord Yan should know in his heart that we are now people in the same boat, and if the ship sinks, none of us will survive." ”

"Yes, yes! If the lord has orders, the subordinates will obey all orders! Yan Shiyong hurriedly said.
