Chapter 60: Promotion to Adjutant General

Ren Chao said with a smile, "In the next Ren Chao!" ”

"It turned out to be Lord Ren!" Zhang Yun deliberately showed a look of panic, and arched his hand and said, "The lowly position is see Lord Ren, the lowly position does not know the dignity of the adult, and I hope the adult will not blame the rudeness!" ”

"Hey~!" Ren Chao grabbed Zhang Yun's hand and said, "Lord Zhang is serious, Lord Zhang, please come to the big tent to serve tea." ”

Zhang Yun and Ren Chao said a few polite words, and then the two came to the Chinese army tent together, and soon two soldiers served two cups of tea, Zhang Yun took a sip, and then the two chatted a few words, Zhang Yun said with a smile, "Lord Ren, the lower officials still have the holy order, do you think it is here to announce the decree or after entering the city?" ”

"Reading the holy decree is not child's play, of course, after returning to the city, after summoning officials at all levels, then the decree will be announced!" Ren Chao said with a smile.

"Humble and at the mercy of your lordship!" Zhang Yun smiled and nodded.

"I don't know why Lord Yuan was delayed in Pyongyang? We and other soldiers in the state are looking forward to Lord Yuan, like the nectar of a long drought! That's what you want to wear! And there are still many urgent military affairs in the state that need to be handled by Lord Yuan, but I didn't expect Lord Yuan to fail to come with Lord Zhang, it's really ~ hey! Speaking of this, Ren Chao couldn't help but shake his head.

"I heard Lord Yuan mention it, and Lord Yuan said that he would discuss with Lord Ye in Pyongyang and allocate some weapons, ammunition and other heavy materials for the Tiger Ben Army in Quanzhou! Therefore, he had to come a few days late, so he sent his subordinates to take the first step. Zhang Yun explained with a smile.

"I see! It would be nice if Lord Yuan could fight for more weapons and equipment for us, Lord Zhang didn't know, my Tiger Ben army was hanging overseas, and all kinds of supplies could only be collected nearby, and the grain and grass were okay to say, but there was a shortage of weapons and ammunition, and the last general sincerely hoped that Lord Yuan could rush to Quanzhou as soon as possible to preside over the overall situation. Ren Chao said with a smile. In his heart, he scolded Yuan Shikai's ancestors for eighteen generations, Ren Chao didn't believe that Yuan Shikai was stranded in Pyongyang in order to raise weapons and ammunition for the Tiger Army, eighty percent of them were this old fox, seeing the urgency of the war in Quanzhou, he didn't dare to come! However, it is good that Yuan Shikai does not come, but it is troublesome when he comes.

The two chatted for a while, Ren Chao took Zhang Yun back to Quanzhou City, and that night Ren Chao ordered people to set up a banquet to entertain Zhang Yun, and the Korean generals heard the news and rushed to visit.

Early the next morning, Ren Chao convened the generals at all levels of the Tiger Army, Zhang Yun stood facing south, respectfully opened the holy decree, Ren Chao led the generals of the Tiger Ben Army to kneel to receive the order, Ren Chao couldn't help but scold his mother in his heart, and he still needed to kneel down to receive a holy decree, it was really verbose, this tone Lao Tzu put up with it for the time being, one day Lao Tzu will let the emperor of the Qing Dynasty kneel and return it to me.

Zhang Yun cleared his throat and shouted loudly, "Fengtian carrier, system said: Today, I heard that the Tiger Ben army has repeatedly defeated the Japanese and raised my heavenly prestige overseas...... Ren Chao, the commander of the Jin Huben Army, is the deputy general, and the name of Baturu is rewarded, and all the generals of the Tiger Ben Army are promoted to the next level, and all the soldiers are rewarded...... Chin this! ”

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Ren Chao led the generals to shout long live the decree together.

Ren Chao respectfully took the holy decree from Zhang Yun's hand, opened it respectfully, then pretended to look at it, turned around and solemnly handed it to a guard behind him, "Please bring the holy decree to my room first, and place it properly!" ”

"Lord Zhang has worked hard, please sit down and drink tea!" Ren Chao said to Zhang Yun with a smile.

"Congratulations to Lord Ren for being promoted to deputy general!" Zhang Yun smiled and said hello to Ren Chao.

"Thank you for the emperor's love! The last general is really flattered! Ren Chao said modestly. Originally, Emperor Guangxu agreed with Li Hongzhang and others that he planned to send Ren Chao a general. But later, Emperor Guangxu learned that Ren Chao was not a descendant of Li Hongzhang's Huaijun, so he had the heart to win over. You must know that Emperor Guangxu has long wanted to take back the military power of the Huai Army, and if he can draw Ren Chao into his camp, he can gradually disintegrate and divide the forces of the Huai Army, so Emperor Guangxu gave Ren Chao a deputy general title.

"I heard that Lord Ren fought another big victory in Shanqing and annihilated more than 5,000 Japanese people, I'm afraid it won't be long before the lower officials should congratulate Lord Ren again!" Zhang Yun said with a smile.

Ren Chao couldn't help but be modest again, but he was secretly thinking in his heart, now that he is a deputy general, if he can be promoted to another level, he will be the chief soldier. Thinking of this, Ren Chao couldn't help but feel secretly complacent, but he didn't expect that in less than two months after coming to this world, he had changed from a nobody to a second-rank high-ranking official in the imperial court (the deputy general was from the second rank), which was like a dream.

At the port of Incheon, a warship flying the flag of the Japanese Navy slowly sailed into the pier. The wharf has long been under martial law by the Japanese army, and dozens of Japanese officers are standing on the trestle in an orderly manner, as if waiting for the arrival of some big man, and a Japanese officer headed by him has the rank of lieutenant general, and this person is Lieutenant General Katsura Taro, the commander of the third division of the Japanese army.

Soon after, an old devil slowly walked from the boat, this old devil wore the rank of general, it was the newly appointed commander of the First Army of the Japanese army, known as the father of the locust army.

"Your Excellency, Commander!" Katsura Taro led a group of officers to respectfully salute Youpeng in Yama County.

Yama Prefecture Youpeng glanced at everyone with a gloomy face, and finally stopped his gaze on Katsura Taro, "How is the progress of the Fifth Division of Nozu Michikan, has the Locust Army captured Sanqing County?" ”

"Reply to Your Excellency, Commander! According to the information just received, the 5th Division was defeated! The more than 5,000 warriors of the Locust Army below the commander of the Nozu Daoguan Division were all shattered! Katsura Taro lowered his head and said respectfully, at this time Katsura Taro's forehead had a layer of cold sweat, as the head disciple of Yama County Youpeng, Katsura Taro really knew his teacher's character too well, he could guess the consequences of Yama County Youpeng after getting this news.

"Is the message confirmed?" Youpeng Qiang in Shan County held back the shock in his heart and asked coldly.

"It's true!" Katsura Taro said helplessly. To be honest, he also hopes that this news is not true, but the reality is cruel.

"Baga Ya Road!" Yama Youpeng gritted his teeth and said viciously, and then ignored Katsura Taro and strode forward. Katsura Taro looked at the back of Yama County Youtomo, and was a little overwhelmed for a while, he was already ready to meet the teacher's anger, but he saw that Yama County Aritomo left without saying anything, which was against common sense. Although he was frightened and inexplicable, Katsura Taro still chased after him quickly.

"I'm tired and need to take a break!" Youpeng of Shan County said coldly.

"Rest assured, teacher, students are ready for you!" Katsura Taro said respectfully.

"An emergency military meeting will be held early tomorrow morning!" After Youpeng of Shan County coldly threw down this sentence, he got into the carriage that had been waiting for a long time.

"Hay!" Katsura Taro replied respectfully.
