When he received Li Hongzhang's telegram inviting him to go north, Yang Feng was lying under the parasol on Naha Beach, carrying a fishing rod in his hand to make Jiang Taigong, and a carefully selected Japanese slave girl kneeling next to him beat his legs.

To his surprise, these Japanese women who were used by him as comfort women were not disgusted by their miserable situation, and even most of them seemed to be relatively satisfied.

At this time, Japan was so poor that it was very common for the common people to not be able to eat, especially the women with low status, who could only rely on a little pitiful brown rice every day to satisfy their hunger, and it was simply a festival to be able to eat fish and meat.

But it's different to be a comfort woman for Yang Feng, this product has no concept of money at all, and the soldiers under him have a lot of fish and meat every day, and the rice and white noodles are enough, although they are comfort women, but they are also their own comfort women, and they are naturally treated equally, which makes those Japanese women feel like they are in a dream, as for the need to serve men, it's not worth mentioning, aren't women born to do that? Who to do is not to do.

"To go or not to go?" This cargo carried a fishing rod that caught a starfish in the morning, and hesitated to the invitation of Li Er's devil, speaking of which, he has been quite idle recently, the three thousand recruits recruited from Yiwu and the two thousand recruits recruited from Taiwan are still being trained, and now the strength of the combined fleet is quite strong, so he does not have the conditions to land in Japan, it is best to let them and the Beiyang Naval Division continue to lose both, so it is okay to lend him, no, it should be possible to lease him two destroyers, This will ensure that Ding Ruchang and Ito Hyungwoo will be able to duel fairly.

Anyway, the two newly built destroyers from Sweden are coming, and even if they lease two to him, it will not affect their combat effectiveness, and the two built by Armstrong look uncomfortable, so they simply rent them to play......

In addition, Yoshino's sea attack is indeed not good, in case the logistics supply of Asan is not in trouble, you must know that the speed of bullet consumption of these Qing soldiers can be described as terrifying, consuming dozens or even millions of bullets a day is the same as playing, Tianan War 1 His 1 million rounds of 79 mm Makqin bullets went down 300,000, and now the Japanese army has invested a total of two divisions in Korea, that is to say, they still have five divisions on their homeland, this is absolutely not good, at least three more must be transferred out, so that it is safe to play, So this meat grinder in Asan must be maintained.

But what about Pyongyang? Forget it, what do they like!

What this thing doesn't know is that Katsura Taro is not ready to attack Pyongyang at all, he only has 10,000 people, how can he attack the fortified fortress defended by more than 13,000 people? There is no superiority in troops, there is no superiority in equipment, there are still logistical supply difficulties, and the damned Koreans do not cooperate with the imperial army at all.

Besides, judging from the situation of the Battle of Asan, it is better to be careful, anyway, the task of the third division is to contain the Qing army in Pyongyang, don't let them go south and copy Seoul, now there is less than a wing there, and the North Koreans are still ready to move, this Qing army must be lost in the past, and then Oshima Yoshimasa's back is exposed, since it is containment, there is no need to attack, the third division stopped at Sandeng, and then began to build a defense on the spot, sent soldiers to collect food, and prepared to consume it with Zuo Guigui and others.

The defeat in the Battle of Cheonan once again shocked Japan, from the beginning of the war to the present, it can be said that there is no good news, the casualties of the soldiers alone are more than a brigade, the combat effectiveness of the Qing army, ah, or the rich Cheng dù, so that Ito Hirobumi can't help but have a sense of humiliation, there is no such bullying, why can't you compete with us fairly like a real warrior? Is it the demeanor of a big country to spend money?

However, since this war has begun, then it must continue to fight, there is no money, then use human lives to fill, for the rise of the Japanese Empire, how many people died at any cost, so the first division of the Japanese army sent troops to Korea, and the war began to develop towards the rhythm that Yang Feng expected.

And at the same time, after careful planning, Nozu Michikan once again launched an attack on Cheonan, this time he wanted to play with the east and attack the west, leaving only the division headquarters to launch an attack in the west, but he had to make enough momentum and show a look of going all out, and the forced march of Tongguò overnight strengthened to the southern front of the Limi Shangwen suddenly launched a fierce attack, but unfortunately this time he failed again, and more than 500 people were killed and wounded, and even a wing commander was seriously injured.

It's not that Zhang Gaoyuan saw through his plan, but the Xu Bangdao Department that had just been reinforced happened to be strengthened in this direction, and now there are 3,000 people on both sides of Tianan, and they are all the most elite troops of the Huai Army, and the whole regiment has become a hedgehog that can't be spoken, and the only drawback is logistics, but although Pingjing Hangsanti yì went out to fight a decisive battle with the Beiyang Naval Division according to his new tactics without Matsushima, neither Ito Hyungyou nor Ito Hirobumi agreed with his tactics of gambling with the fate of the entire country.

Without Matsushima, with the remaining strength of the Combined Fleet, it is not qualified for a decisive battle at all.

What they didn't know was that this deprived the combined fleet of its only chance.

Just when the second attack of Nozu Michikan failed, Yang Feng finally accepted Li Hongzhang's invitation, under the escort of two destroyers, the Nautilus set off from Naha and arrived at Weihaiwei in only one day, for this guy Beiyang Naval Division gave enough face, specially sent Jingyuan to go forward more than dozens of kilometers to meet him, the first time he saw this strange black ship, Ye Zugui and Liu Guanxiong were also taken aback, they didn't expect that there were people building like this.

However, when they saw Yang Feng, the shock of these two people immediately turned into a collapse.

Because today, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Boss Yang wore a pirate suit like Captain Jack, and a small Arab scimitar was hung on his waist, including those few small braids were also combed, so it is estimated that no one will mind his hair problem, don't you want braids? We don't lack braids on our heads now, not only in our hair, but even in our beards.

Looking at Yang Feng, who raised his orchid fingers and stood on the deck dressed like a ghost, Ye Zugui and the two didn't know how to speak.

"This is General Ye! What a blessing!" Yang Feng said lightly.

Only then did the two of them react, no matter what he was wearing, it was true that this thing was actually awarded to the general soldier, so they hurriedly bowed on the deck of the Jingyuan and saluted, and the three of them casually said a few words, and then Jingyuan took the lead, slowed down and slowly sailed towards Liugong Island.

The slow Jingyuan took more than an hour to complete this journey, and when it arrived at Liugong Island, the main generals of the Beiyang Naval Division led by Ding Ruchang were already waiting at the dock, although Yang Feng's status was one level lower than him, but at this time, no one talked about this, and the gratitude of these people to him was real.

When he saw this goods, he and the generals of Beiyang almost dropped their jaws, but considering that they were still the governors of the Ottoman Empire, they thought that this was the governor's uniform, although the style was peculiar, but since it was a foreign costume, there was nothing to be surprised about.

The first time I saw Li Er's devil, this thing is also a little bit booh, although this person has a problem, and there are countless infamy behind him, and even more than a hundred years later, there are many people who quarrel for him with a red face and a thick neck, but the problem is that in such an era, there are too many people in China who seem to be lofty but useless, but how many people can really leave something for the country and the nation?

He is making money, but even if there are a few officials in modern China who don't make money?

He was preserving his strength, and as a result, the Beiyang Naval Division was blocked in the harbor, but under the circumstances at that time, was there any other trick besides this? If he does not save his strength, he will go out to lose the fleet in one battle, then the Japanese army will not land in Shandong but directly in Tianjin.

He was the master of peace later, and even opposed the move of the capital proposed by others to continue to fight, but who knows what those people thought, when China was confronting foreign enemies, which time the result of moving the capital was not all chaos in the world, and the warlords fought for decades? Don't feudal officials like Zhang Zhidong have no ambition at all? If the first day of the war continues, then I am afraid that no one can predict the result.

"Lord Yang has worked hard from afar." Li Er's devil looked at Yang Feng, who was dressed in strange clothes and stood in front of him, but he didn't know why he didn't say a word, coughed and said lightly.

"Ah, the last general will see Lord Tsuidai." Yang Feng reacted at this time, and quickly bowed and said.

"You and I have been friends for a long time, so you don't need to be polite, since you were born in the West, and you don't know much about the imperial court, we might as well talk in a Western way." Li Hongzhang said with a smile, this point was specially instructed by Xue Fucheng, playing with Yang Feng about the domestic officialdom, and he would not get a word of truth from him.

"Then since this is the case, the last general is not welcome." Yang Feng smiled and sat down and said.

"Brother Yang, you and I have forgotten the New Year's handover, brother, I will open the skylight today and say something bright, I want to buy two destroyers from you, but you have to give me some face at this price, the court is now nervous, the household department has no silver, and I only have less than one million taels." The two of them casually said a few more polite words, and Li Hongzhang said.
