Chapter 153: Ready 4 More!

One advance and one retreat, but only a few minutes of work. Although Yang Hao's subordinates were out of breath, many of them had dusty footprints on their bodies, and the corners of their mouths were bleeding, but there was no noise.

Compared with the two, Ma Yukun's face was really unbearable, and he scolded several battalion officers viciously: "Go back and settle accounts with you again!" ”

Turning his face, he snorted at Yang Haopi without smiling: "Okay! I can't see that you are a young master who is a businessman, but you are a good soldier! Even the old man's siblings are rivals, and there are two hits! ”

Yang Hao arched his hand and smiled: "That's the old general who let us, we can't do it." ”

turned his head, but shouted at everyone: "Go back and reward five yuan per person!" The reward for hanging the lottery is ten yuan! ”

"Thank you, young master!"

Liu Yong took the lead and shouted at the top of his voice, and the movement was almost clear across the river.

Ma Yukun's beard curled, glared and shouted, "Hey! You kid has a kind of can't get off the stage for the old man in front of him! But forget it, the old man is open-minded and doesn't care about you juniors. Hurry up and leave, don't make people angry here! ”

He waved his hand impatiently, intending to turn around and go back to clean up the unscrupulous soldiers.

Yang Hao raised his hand to stop: "Old general, slow down!" ”

Ma Yukun turned his head and said with disgust: "What's the matter? You kid still want to sell cheaply? ”

Yang Hao said: "Naturally not. Since I said Xiangzan, I must not be able to say it without faith. Come on, leave four cars! ”

Liu Yong immediately ordered the car to be dragged out of the queue and opened in front of everyone. It's full of all kinds of novelty fruits, canned meat, sugar cubes, snacks and more. Except for the sweet, it is fresh. Otherwise, it's fragrant.

A large group of Qing soldiers have straight eyes! This bunch of stuff. To say the least, there are thousands of catties! Their battalion is here for a total of only 2,000 people. Wouldn't everyone be able to share a bunch?

Those who have been soldiers in these years are really poor. The first soldiers above ate empty salaries and drank the blood of soldiers, and how many things were distributed to them depended on whether the officials had a long conscience. These things in front of them are all good things that they are usually reluctant to buy and can't afford, and there are so many ...... at once.

Ma Yukun's eyes widened, and he glared at his subordinates fiercely: "What the hell are you doing in a daze?" Don't pull Lao Tzu back to the camp yet! ”

Looking at Yang Hao's eyes again, it was called smooth, and he smiled: "It seems that the old man misunderstood you!" is worthy of being a big boss famous in Beijing and Tianjin, bold enough! The old man turned around and finished his military affairs. I'm going to have to have a drink with you! ”

He knew the value of these four carts of things, and he couldn't afford them himself. People's hands are so bright!

Yang Hao smiled: "Then I'll wait for you." ”

Ma Yukun's mood improved, and he ordered his cronies to open the way in front of him, and accompanied Yang Hao and his party to drive smoothly into Pyongyang City.

As soon as I entered the city gate, I was greeted by a lot of noise and heat, and the heads of the rushing people were dizzy.

Yang Hao looked over from his horse and saw that the narrow city streets were bustling with people coming and going. Most of the Goryeo locals were panicked and dazed. Under the leadership of the Qing soldiers, supplies were transported in a hurry and chaotic.

It's already a narrow street. The low houses, in the hot weather, make people feel restless and panicked.

With such morale and such a military spirit, the big war is approaching, and there is no subordination, which is really unorganized.

Yang Hao's team has a neat lineup and is well-trained, and he stands out from the crowd as soon as he comes in. The Qing army, who had the heart to come forward to ask, was immediately stopped by Ma Yukun's people, until they drove into the rented compound in the city and set up a guard.

Ding Weifen and the others shook their heads helplessly and sighed: "It is impossible to expect such a group of people to win a professional army!" For hundreds of years, the Qing Dynasty only knew how to prevent the Han people from rebelling, and even banned the military books and war books, agricultural and industrial technology, and made it like this, which is hateful! ”

Mourn its misfortune and be angry with it.

As scholars, what they have been taught since childhood is to assist the Holy Monarch and create a peaceful and prosperous world.

Now, although I have awakened and become a revolutionary party, there are still things in my bones that appear unconsciously from time to time. They really hate those bastard officials who are dead and vegetarian.

The more they saw the truth, the more disappointed they became, and the more they strengthened their revolutionary convictions.

The First World War of Goryeo was a battle that would absolutely determine the fate of the two countries of China and Japan. The Japanese have long been conscious, so they mobilized from top to bottom, and did not hesitate to make a desperate bet.

Looking at the Great Qing Kingdom again, there is only one Li Hongzhang who is busy working up and down, and a large group of bastards who blindly command and toss around, and they must not be allowed to bury the great rivers and mountains alive!

Yang Hao didn't say a word. He was personally suspected, just to let these people see clearly with their own eyes what kind of things they were raising in the imperial court they were originally going to be loyal to. Only the piercing pain can make them deeply realize that those things in the theory are real!

Don't have any illusions, only unite and break this qiē!

In the next few days, Yang Hao either closed his door, or took people to wander the streets and alleys, quietly controlling the drone to scan the situation in every place in all directions.

Ding Weifen and others, in cooperation with the scouts, conducted a detailed investigation within a radius of 20 kilometers around Pyongyang. Taking advantage of the goods pulled on the foreign sales truck, the deployment, defense, material storage, and even their vaults of the four routes were clearly investigated.

In the evening, they are divided into small groups to discuss routes and plans for causing destruction in the chaos or looting and seizing.

Their actions, the Qing army actually did not have much vigilance!

Until August 21, Ye Zhichao and Nie Shicheng's soldiers and horses arrived in Pyongyang one after another. The city, which was already very crowded, suddenly came in four or five thousand soldiers, and it was chaos again.

As the number of people continues to increase and external sea transportation decreases, prices in Pyongyang have skyrocketed. Yang Hao, a profiteer, unceremoniously made a windfall and sold all those scarce goods at a price that had increased several times.

As soon as Ye Zhichao arrived at the place, he learned that he was almost hacked out of the "National News Daily", and he was so angry that he bit his tongue and vomited blood on the spot! Then he sent a telegram to Li Hongzhang, claiming that he had "dizziness and heartbeat" and asked to "open a vacancy and return to Tianjin for medical treatment and recuperation".

By the way, he drove out all the reporters inside and outside Pyongyang, no matter what your origins were.

There are also more than a dozen foreign devil reporters, who have protested against their "freedom of the press" and have the full strength to interview and report the truth.

Ye Zhichao didn't care about that, and ordered someone to order "kill them if they don't leave", and brutally drove them away. This practice was already unfavorable to the public opinion of the Qing court, and it made matters worse.

Yang Hao didn't pull it all in the book, don't worry, go back and count it slowly!

Ye Zhichao repeatedly asked to be withdrawn, but Li Hongzhang repeatedly refused to allow it. Knowing that this bastard was the leader of Cheng Huanyi, he still asked him to command the whole army, reorganize the troops and horses, and defend the battle.

Ye Zhichao then proposed that there were not enough soldiers and horses guarding the rear road, and it was necessary to send more people to watch over the old camp to prevent the Japanese army from raiding.

Li Hongzhang agreed, so Ye Zhichao stuffed Anzhou, 170 miles away, with a full 4,000 men in one go.

But in this way, the forces guarding Pyongyang are stretched. So he proposed that at least 40,000 people should come to defend it completely. While constantly asking for reinforcements, he did not arrange the outer defenses, and in the large camp, the commanders of many roads were noisy and shouting, and they were inconsistent!

Yang Hao couldn't stand it anymore, so he sent a message back and sent someone to Li Hongzhang to send a letter. He was reminded that even if he could not immediately increase his troops, he would at least let Pyongyang's more than 10,000 troops be put into an effective defensive line.

The Kanbei Mountain and Aimei Mountain on the north side, the Dasheng Mountain and the National Clam Heights on the east side are all dangerous places that are easy to defend and difficult to attack. If you set up a position in advance, you can lower the enemy many times. Conversely, if these places are occupied by enemy troops, they can calmly deploy artillery positions and condescendingly bombard the defense line under the city!

Only then did Li Hongzhang know that Yang Hao actually went to Pyongyang.

The old man's first instinct was to think about what the hell that kid was up to, and then he looked at a map that was out of shape to find the place mentioned in the letter.

In these years, the broken map they used was not only inaccurate, but also had no contour lines or anything like that, and it was whimsical to try to figure it out.

Although Li Hongzhang did not think so, he still telegraphed Ye Zhichao to strengthen the defensive deployment, but was prevaricated by his excuse that "it is difficult to deploy due to insufficient troops".

In the final analysis, Ye Zhichao didn't want to stay here to fight at all, he wanted to run, but the others didn't agree!

Zuo Guigui and Ma Yukun believed that they should take advantage of the fact that the Japanese army was not in a position to take the initiative to attack southward and break through each one. Wei Rugui thinks that the troops are too small and should not be divided, and it is better to stick to the city. Ye Zhichao agrees with this.

Yang Hao didn't have time to watch them fight here, and when all the reconnaissance and intelligence were collected, on September 1, he left Pyongyang with his people and made a gesture of returning along the same road.

Ma Yukun also reminded with great concern: "Don't go too far south, in case you encounter the Japanese army, and turn back from the pine forest to the top." ”

Yang Hao expressed his gratitude for this, and then cleared the troops all the way and fast-forwarded, arriving in Huangzhou the next day. Set up the battalion headquarters on the spot, and then personally go to Dongxian Ridge to inspect the defense deployment.

The steep mountains are still lush and natural when viewed from below. Halfway up the mountain, I found that many places had quietly changed. The logistical force of more than 300 people, together with the engineers, worked hard for more than 10 days in a row to build a multi-layered position covering a diameter of three kilometers in the surrounding area.

Li Yingjiu was covered in oil, crossed his waist with one hand, and said proudly: "See? All the fortifications have been arranged! Even the position in the east of Kambari has helped to make a profit! The traffic lines and telephone lines are all in place, no matter how many people he comes, he can catch them! ”

Yang Hao nodded again and again with satisfaction, and specially checked one position after another, making sure that even if it encountered heavy rain, it would not be filled into a swamp.

The next day, he rushed to Chuanpoli again to inspect the fortification deployment of the third company, and he was ready.

On September 3, the forward scouts reported that the Japanese advance team had arrived at Fengshan! The person who came was none other than an old rival, a family guard of the Eleventh Wing! (To be continued......)
