Chapter 274: North Korea's Attitude
Especially after the main force of the Tiger Ben Army left North Korea, these opponents became even bolder, and many people have begun to openly accuse the rebellion of the responsible Chao, and oppose the North Korean sending troops to help Ren Chao put down the rebellion, because in their opinion, Ren Chao is the real rebel. Later, Ren Chao declared war on Tsarist Russia, and the voice of opposition was even higher, and many people thought that Ren Chao's challenge to Tsarist Russia was tantamount to asking for his own death, and they were unwilling to be buried with Ren Chao. Therefore, the current situation in North Korea is somewhat chaotic, and Ren Chao's supporters and opponents are automatically divided into two factions, and the two factions are secretly competing to make the current situation in North Korea very unclear.
After declaring war on Tsarist Russia, Ren Chao originally wanted to transfer troops from North Korea to reinforce the Northeast, but in view of the current situation in North Korea, in order not to further stimulate these North Koreans, Ren Chao finally gave up this idea. Now Ren Chao just hopes that at the critical moment of the war against Russia, these North Koreans will not jump out and pull Ren Chao's hind legs.
"Returning to the marshal, there are indeed some ungrateful guys in North Korea at present, who are dissatisfied with the marshal and attempt to betray the marshal. However, our Korean New Army still absolutely supports the Grand Marshal, and Commander-in-Chief Jeon said that as long as the Grand Marshal gives the order, the Korean New Army can also increase its troops in the northeast to assist the Grand Marshal in fighting against Tsarist Russia. These old men of Tsarist Russia are as hateful as those Japanese pirates, and our new Korean army absolutely supports the battle between the marshal and Tsarist Russia. Kim Min Joon said respectfully.
Ren Chao nodded with satisfaction after hearing this, and said with a smile, "But this old man of Tsarist Russia is not so easy to deal with, aren't you afraid that if we are defeated, it will affect you North Korea?" ”
"We believe that Dashuai will be able to lead us to defeat Tsarist Russia, thinking that when we were in Korea, our situation was even worse than it is now, and Dashuai did not lead us to defeat the Oriental Japanese invaders. What's more, our DPRK is a subject country of the Qing Dynasty, and it is connected with the blood of the Qing Dynasty. If the Qing Dynasty is defeated, how can our DPRK be left alone, but it is ridiculous that there are some cowardly and cowardly people in the court, who can't even see through such a simple truth. Kim Min Joon said with some indignation.
"Min Jun is right, I think the situation in North Korea was a hundred times more critical than it is now, didn't we still win? I believe that this time, under the wise leadership of the commander, we will also be able to defeat Tsarist Russia. Zhou Tai couldn't help but interject at this time, his eyes flashing with excitement.
"Well, I love that. is just an old man in Tsarist Russia, and the official has not seen it at all. Today, let us join hands to defeat Tsarist Russia and let the whole world see how powerful we are. Ren Chao said arrogantly.
"By the way, is there any movement of Lao Maozi outside the city at present?" Ren Chao then asked Zhou Tai with a smile.
"So far, the Russian army outside the city has increased to 80,000 troops, and these old men have been ready to move in the past two days, and it seems that they should be unable to sit still and are ready to attack." Zhou Tai hurriedly replied.
"He didn't come to us, Lao Tzu was trying to find him!" Ren Chao snorted coldly with a straight face, "If they really dare to attack." Just beat me hard, let them see the strength of our Tiger Army. ”
"Obedience!" Zhou Tai hurriedly responded.
Then everyone chatted for a while, and Zhou Tai saw that the time was not early, so he spoke. "Dashuai, the banquet for you is ready, Dashuai has been tired all the way, and he must be hungry. Let's talk while eating! ”
"It's all to blame on those old Cossack cavalry, otherwise this officer would have arrived in Jilin a long time ago, maybe he would have finished eating by this time. All right. It's not too early, let's go to dinner and talk about it after eating. Ren Chao said with a smile. Due to the encounter with the Cossack cavalry regiment on the way, a lot of time was delayed, and it was already dark when Ren Chao arrived in Jilin, and he chatted with the generals for a while, and now the time is indeed not early. So accompanied by the generals, Ren Chao came to General Jilin's banquet room and had dinner together. After eating, Ren Chao chatted with the generals for a while, mainly to discuss the specific battle plan for the next step, at this time it was already very late, the generals got up to say goodbye, and Ren Chao also went back to the accommodation arranged by Zhou Tai to sleep.
Early the next morning, Ren Chao got up from bed early, and after a hurried breakfast, Ren Chao said hello to Zhou Tai and others, and prepared to take his guards to investigate the military situation outside the city. Where did Zhou Tai dare to let Ren Chao risk his life, and after a hard persuasion, he was almost forced to die. But Ren Chao couldn't listen to it at all and insisted on going, Zhou Tai had no choice but to agree, but because he was really worried about Ren Chao, Zhou Tai also followed Ren Chao out of the city.
Ren Chao first inspected the camp of the garrison outside the city, and the garrison outside the city saw that the commander had worked tirelessly and came to the barracks to inspect on the first day. After turning around on various positions, Ren Chao also had a general understanding of the current situation of our army, and immediately proposed to investigate the military situation of the Russian army. Zhou Tai and others repeatedly dissuaded them, but Ren Chao didn't listen at all.
"Sun Tzu's art of war is cloudy, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, and not being defeated in a hundred battles. Now we only understand our own situation, and we do not understand at all the situation of the Russian army on the opposite side, how they can be defeated. So don't persuade me anymore and come with me to find out the situation of the Russian army. Ren Chao waved his hand and said impatiently.
"Although what the marshal said is reasonable, but this kind of spying on the military intelligence is better left to his subordinates, so why should the marshal risk himself?" Zhou Tai still did not give up and continued to persuade.
"I don't feel at ease until I see it myself. So don't persuade me anymore, I know you're worried about my safety, so we'll pretend to be ordinary scout cavalry, even if they are discovered by Lao Maozi, they may not care. Even if they send people to chase and kill, won't we run? Ren Chao frowned and said angrily.
Zhou Tai had no choice but to agree. Then Ren Chao, Zhou Tai and others changed into ordinary military uniforms, and then took a few personal guards, and there were only a dozen people in the group, and quietly left the barracks.
On the top of a mountain, Ren Chao and others held binoculars to observe the Russian military camp in the distance, and in this position, Ren Chao could see almost half of the Russian military camp. After looking at it carefully for a while, Ren Chao suddenly frowned and pointed to a military camp in the distance and asked, "Are they all old Maozi's military camps there?" ”
Zhou Tai looked in the direction of Ren Chao's finger, shook his head and said, "It's not Lao Maozi's military camp, those are all rebel military camps." According to our reconnaissance, in addition to Lao Maozi's tens of thousands of troops, there were also 20,000 or 30,000 rebel troops outside the city, all of whom had rushed over from the Jilin border defense or Heilongjiang and other places.
