"What's going on?" Yang Jichang saw that Ren Chao's face was not right, and hurriedly asked.

"Li Hongzhang sent us a telegram asking us to sail our warships to Lushun." Ren Chao said with a sneer.

"What?" A hint of surprise appeared on Yang Jichang's face, "Isn't this a clear intention to annex our fleet?" My lord, what should we do? ”

"What do you think?" Ren Chao asked rhetorically.

"You can't say yes." Yang Jichang said with an affirmative face.

"That's what I thought, too." Ren Chao nodded and said, "It's just that I don't want to turn against the court now, after all, we still have a common enemy, and I don't want to turn against the court before defeating the little devil!" ”

"Then ignore it! Anyway, we are now in North Korea, and we refuse to obey orders, and they have no choice. Yang Jichang said with an indignant face. The Tiger Ben Army has been fighting bloodily on the Korean front, if it weren't for the Tiger Ben Army, the little devil would have crossed the Yalu River to fight in the country by now, and the imperial court didn't want to supply the Tiger Ben Army, even if it wanted to annex the Tiger Ben Army's fleet, this is a typical behavior of digging the foot of the wall, no wonder Yang Jichang would be angry.

"That's all there is to it!" Ren Chao nodded and said, "However, the imperial court also sent a minister to come to Seoul in the name of the labor army, and its purpose can be imagined!" Ren Chao was also in a dilemma in his heart, it stands to reason that Ren Chao has a system in his body, and he can develop and grow rapidly without relying on the Qing Dynasty. But Ren Chao's current foundation is not yet solid, and it is not beneficial to pay back the Qing court prematurely, and Ren Chao also needs the tiger skin of the Qing court, so that he can justifiably control the government of North Korea and develop North Korea into his first base.

"Who is the minister sent by the Qing court this time?" Yang Jichang asked with a frown.

Li Hongzhang's telegram didn't mention it, but no matter who comes, it's not easy to do! But as long as we firmly grasp the situation in North Korea, even if he Li Hongzhang can't help me! Ren Chao said confidently.

"Your Excellency is right, the imperial court doesn't have any bargaining chips to blackmail us, so we can't lose no matter what." Yang Jichang nodded and said.

"That's right, so we don't need to pay attention to them!" Ren Chao waved his hand and said, "Call Li Hongzhang back and tell him that the warships of the Jiaolong fleet were heavily damaged in the last naval battle, and most of the ships are under repair, and they cannot be ordered to go to Lushun for the time being, please ask Li Zhongtang to give a few days, and when the ship is repaired, he will go to Lushun by order." "Ren Chao naturally can't refuse sternly, after all, this time Li Hongzhang moved out the unlucky emperor of Guangxu Emperor in order to be able to annex these warships, so Ren Chao still has to give some face, although this face is not very valuable, there is no way but to use a procrastination trick, drag it first and then talk about it. As for that bullshit minister, Ren Chao didn't pay attention to it at all, now North Korea is his territory, and it is useless for anyone to come.

"Yes, I'll order someone to call Li Hongzhang back." Yang Jichang responded respectfully.

"According to the calculation of the itinerary, tomorrow the little devils in Buyeo will be in the urn, and when the time comes, even the little devils in Suwon will be stewed together, and the turtle sons will be solved first." Ren Chao turned his head and glanced at the sand table, "Order the Fourth Regiment and the Fifth Regiment to enter the preset position and stand by this evening." ”

The commander of the 2nd Brigade of the 1st Division of the Japanese Army, Nishikanjiro, was ordered to lead more than 4,000 Japanese troops to support North Korea quickly, but he did not expect that two of the four troop carriers were sunk by the Jiaolong fleet, and 2,000 little devils were directly buried at the bottom of the sea. Nishikanjiro was still relatively lucky, not after the defeat of the Japanese fleet on these two sunken ships. Without the cover of the navy, the troop carriers did not dare to land at Asan, but they could not just go home, so Nishikanjiro led the remaining 2,000 Japanese troops to land near Buyeo.

After landing in Buyeo, after a day's rest, Nishikanjiro began to move north, and the local Korean army was simply unable to stop this elite Japanese army. Originally, Nishikanjiro was not in a hurry, and slowly and leisurely advanced towards Suwon along the way. But soon news came from Suwon that Suwon was surrounded, and the shape was very critical. When Nishikanjiro learned the news, he immediately led his troops to Suwon without stopping. The so-called newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, this is the first time to come to North Korea, and he has not fought with the Tiger Army before, so he naturally does not know the strength of the Tiger Army, although he now has only 2,000 infantry under his hands, but Xi Kuan Erlang did not have the slightest fear, so he rushed to Suwon without hesitation.

"Boom! Rumble! "The shells landed in the ranks of the Japanese troops with a piercing whistling sound, and then exploded with a bang. A little devil was torn to pieces in an instant, blood and flesh were splashed, and the scene was very tragic.

At the same time, tongues of fire suddenly appeared on the hillside on the side of the road, wantonly harvesting the lives of the little devils like the whip of death. The sound of gunfire, cannons, screams, and shouts made up a magnificent symphony.

It wasn't until this moment that Nishikanjiro realized his mistake, he was too underestimated to fall into an ambush by the enemy!

"Kill!" In the earth-shattering shouts of killing, countless heroic Tiger Ben soldiers rushed out of the mountains and killed the little devil.

The circuit was also cut off, and more than 2,000 little devils of the Second Brigade were encircled, and it was conceivable that they were waiting for them.

And almost at the same moment, the final attack horn was also sounded outside Suwon City, and the 3rd Regiment of the Huben Army, together with the Donghak Army, and tens of thousands of troops of the Korean New Army launched a final attack on the remaining Japanese troops in Suwon City. In less than half a day, all the remaining more than 1,000 little devils in the city were annihilated. Japanese generals such as Motoharu Yamachi, Yasumi Oji and others committed suicide by caesarean section in the headquarters, which can be regarded as retaining the last trace of dignity.

As soon as Ren Chao stepped into Suwon City, good news came from the front line of Osan that more than 2,000 people of the Japanese Second Brigade and Regiment, including the commander of the brigade Nishi Kuanjiro, were all annihilated in the mountains near Osan Mountain. At this point, the 1st Division of the Japanese Army was completely annihilated, except for the troops left behind in the country.

"Good! Order the 5th Regiment to continue southward, completely wipe out all the Japanese troops entrenched near Asan, and recover Asan! Ren Chao then ordered. At that time, after the Japanese army landed in Asan, they went all the way north, and all the cities along the route fell into the hands of the Japanese invaders, and then the Japanese army left some small troops in these cities as the rear route of the Japanese army. Now that the Japanese army has been wiped out, it's time to clean up these small shrimps as well.

"The rest of the ministries will rest for a day in Suwon, and then return to Seoul in batches." Ren Chao turned his head and said to Yang Jichang.

"Yes!" Yang Jichang replied loudly.

"What a city! It was ruined by the little devils of dog days. Walking on the streets of Suwon, looking at the messy streets, Ren Chao couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. Although most of these houses were blown up by the artillery of the Tiger Army, this account still has to be counted on the head of the little devil in the end. Now Ren Chao's greatest wish is to one day lead the army to set foot on the three islands of Dongying and completely conquer this ** nation.
