Japan's intelligence work has been doing well, and the news of the sudden appearance of three warships in the port of Incheon soon reached the ears of the Japanese. The Japanese troops, who were expected to land at Inchon on September 20, dared to come to Incheon and rushed to land on the beach in the Asan area on the night of September 19.

Also on the night of September 19, Ren Chao led the main force of the Tiger Ben Army to attack the Japanese camp at night, defeating the Japanese Wonshan detachment in one fell swoop, beheading more than 1,000 people, and the Japanese army could only be temporarily defeated. However, the main forces of the Japanese army in Pyongyang also arrived one after another, and Ren Chao had no choice but to temporarily retreat to Seoul.

In the city of Seoul, in Ren Chao's newly established joint headquarters, Ren Chao pointed to the map on the wall with a stern face and said loudly, "Now, more than 10,000 people from the 3rd Division and other units have returned from Pyongyang and are attacking our defense line from the north, while about 5,000 people of the 1st Division of the Japanese Army in the south have successfully landed in the Asan area!" Attempting to flank our army on both sides is already in great danger! ”

"Please give me the order, and we will work together to fight against the Japanese invaders!" The generals said in unison.

"Good!" Ren Chao nodded with satisfaction, after recovering Seoul, Emperor Guangxu ordered the promotion of Ren Chao to the general army, and because Yuan Shikai was stranded in Pyongyang, and then escaped the Yalu River with Ye Zhichao, Emperor Guangxu was very angry, and directly issued an order to remove Yuan Shikai from the post of deputy military minister of North Korea, and appointed Ren Chao as the deputy military minister of North Korea.

"Brigadier General Jeon!" Ren Chao shouted loudly.

"The last general!" Jeon Junjun replied loudly.

"I order you to lead the Korean New Army and the Donghak Army to be responsible for fortifying the southern area of Seoul to resist the Japanese First Division, and at any cost, you must not let the Japanese invaders approach Seoul!" Ren commanded loudly.

"The last will be ordered!" Jeon Hyun bowed down and stepped aside.

"Zhou Tai!"

"The last general!"

"I order you to lead the second regiment of the Huben Army, the Dongxue Army, and one of the North Korean officers and soldiers, and take full responsibility for the defense of Seoul, and never let the little devil step into the city!"

"Order!"

"Zhao Bin led the main force of the first regiment and was responsible for garrisoning Incheon!"

"Order!"

"I will personally lead the 3rd Regiment and 4th Regiment of the Tiger Army and the headquarters of Sun Huazhong of the Dongxue Army to go north out of Seoul to meet the Japanese Invaders!" Ren Chao said with a stern face. The Celestial Empire sank four Japanese ships, accumulated millions of system coins for Ren Chao, and after exchanging two cruisers, there was still a lot left, so Ren Chao did not hesitate to convert all of them into infantry, and newly formed the third and fourth regiments.

In the end, Ren Chao deliberately left Quan Qizhun behind, and repeatedly advised, "General Quan, the southern front will be handed over to you, as long as General Quan can drag the little devils on the southern front for ten days, and when I annihilate the Japanese on the northern front in one fell swoop, when the time comes, I will join forces and deal with thousands of little devils in the first division, it will not be easy to capture." So the victory or defeat of this battle is all on General Quan. ”

"Please rest assured, Lord Ren, don't say that you will drag the little devil for ten days, even if you completely annihilate this little devil, what's the difficulty?" Quan Qizhun said indifferently that since the formation of the new army, Quan Qizhun's self-confidence has gradually swelled.

"General Quan, don't underestimate the enemy, the little devil is well-trained, but it's not so easy to deal with. This battle must be fought steadily, first in an invincible position, and then look for opportunities to defeat the enemy, remember! Remember! Ren Chao hurriedly persuaded.

"Yes! Please rest assured, the end will ensure that the mission will be completed! Jeon Junjun patted his chest and reassured.

"Lord Ren, can this Quanjun be able to stop the first division of the little devil?" Seeing that Jeon Junzhun had already left, Zhou Tai couldn't help but ask.

"Only God knows!" Ren Chao sighed helplessly and said, "If they can't stop the little devil, then it's all up to you, remember to defend Seoul for Lao Tzu at any cost!" ”

"Yes!" Zhou Tai replied with a stern face.

"Yes!" Ren Chao nodded with satisfaction, "I'm relieved to have you in Seoul!" As he spoke, he strode out with his own soldiers.

"Greetings, sir!" Zhou Tai respectfully sent Ren Chao out.

Ren Chao took a team of personal soldiers out of the city overnight and rushed directly to the front line in the north of the city.

"Why don't you spend the night in the city, you have to run to this wilderness!" Pro-soldier Niu Kaixuan couldn't help but complain.

"Shut your foul mouth! What hasn't I said yet? You're complaining first! Ren Chao couldn't help but scold.

"Hey, hey! My lord, didn't I feel distressed to see you working so hard! I'm an old cow and a rough man, it's the same everywhere, but you're different, my lord, you don't live in the city, you have to come here to suffer. Niu Kaixuan said with a smile.

"Do you think Lao Tzu wants to come! Isn't there no way? Ren Chao said casually, "The front line is tight, and I don't feel at ease staying in the city." ”

"Boom! Da-da-da-da! As he spoke, there was a sudden burst of explosions and a dense burst of gunfire from the north.

"MD, eighty percent of the little devils have launched a night attack!" Ren Chao's face couldn't help but change, "Brothers, speed up and rush to the front line as much as possible!" Drive! Ren Chao said and gently whipped on the horse's buttocks, and the black dragon seemed to feel the anxiety in his master's heart, and roared and rushed forward with four hooves. All the guards also urged the war horses that sat down, and followed closely behind Ren Chao's horse.

"Participate in Ren-sama!" The generals in the big tent saw Ren Chao suddenly arrive, and they bowed down one after another.

"What's going on?" Ren Chao strode to the handsome seat and sat down, and asked casually.

"Lord Qiyu, the Japanese suddenly launched a night attack, and the offensive is extremely fierce!" Wang Jing, the commander of the Third Regiment, replied loudly.

"How's the battle going now?" Ren Chao frowned slightly, and then asked.

"The enemy on the left flank has been successfully repulsed, and now the Japanese are storming the right flank, General Sun Huazhong's Dongxue Army is desperately resisting, and the Fourth Regiment has drawn a battalion to support! I believe it won't take long to repel the little devil. Wang Jing replied honestly.

"Yes!" Ren Chao nodded slightly, "Order all battalions to strengthen their vigilance to prevent the little devils from sneaking up again!" ”

"It seems that the little devil is in a hurry." Ren Chao said to himself.

"My lord, according to the latest information, the total strength of the Japanese on the northern front has exceeded 12,000 people, and they are under the unified command of Lieutenant General Katsura Taro, commander of the 3rd Division of the Japanese Army." Wang Jing continued.

"I see!" Ren Chao said with a solemn face, "It seems that the main force of the little devils has been withdrawn from Pyongyang, and now there are only a few thousand Japanese troops left near Pyongyang at most." Immediately send a telegram to Li Hongzhang, report the matter to Li Hongzhang, and ask Li Zhongtang to immediately urge the Yalu River armies to send troops to recover Pyongyang. ”

"Order!"
