The news of the Volunteers' direct attack on Seoul had just spread, and the whole world was stunned by Yang Dagu!

Although Dashan Rock chased after him, and the Japanese side also reported the situation at the first time, and made a guarantee that it would be able to annihilate the Volunteers in Korea, but all the countries in the world who know a little bit about military affairs have seen very clearly that the Volunteers are currently facing great problems in terms of troops and materials, but Yang Dagui has mastered the rhythm of this war, at least in a short period of time, the Japanese army is destined to follow Yang Xiaolin's footsteps.

It's so exciting!

At the beginning of this war, everyone thought that this was a contest with a huge disparity in strength without any suspense. In the eyes of those Western military experts, the best way for Yang to fight ghosts is to jump into Changbai Mountain, and then rely on the dense mountains and forests to stick to his guerrilla system, maybe let this bandit live a little longer, maybe bring a little trouble to the coalition army.

But no one thought that in the early days of the war, this guy would take the initiative to fight hard with the Japanese! A series of dazzling actions deprived the Japanese Second Army of its combat capability, and also made everyone's eyes turn to it.

But then the Japanese two armies forcibly landed and drove the guy into a place of death with absolute superiority. But before the Japanese could celebrate their victory, the volunteers crossed the river three times before and after, and slaughtered a glimmer of hope in the battle situation where everyone thought they were dead.

The situation of the war became confusing, and the military experts in Europe suddenly became interested in this war at this time, and they all fixed their eyes on this battlefield, some of them just began to give advice to the Japanese, while others could not hold back and applied to the military to join the coalition forces.

At first, when Sadaoyi formed the coalition, the British generals were dismissive, and this allowed Hamilton to pick up this position. But now many of the most successful generals have petitioned the military that Major General Hamilton is not fit to command the fighting in China. It's best to do it yourself.

It's not because they want to support the Japanese, although Yang Dagui is a bastard, he really has little to do with Europe, and those famous Western military strategists will not make this choice for the sake of a beast. What interested them was only this war, and by now, Yang Dagui was no longer a bandit, at least not in their eyes.

While marveling at the Volunteers' tactics that made their eyes light up, defeating this guy has become a military honor!

The Japanese military department receives a lot of suggestions every day, although these suggestions are considered from the perspective of the Japanese, in order to defeat Yang Dagui. But being pointed at like this makes little Japan really uncomfortable.

Sa Daoyi was really extremely uncomfortable in his heart, he had just received two telegrams, one was sent by the Prime Minister, the Prime Minister said that London had doubts about whether the Japanese could solve the war independently, and some people even said that this was a war that was destined to be wrong from the beginning, unnecessary and unnecessary, and they said that this war had cost a lot of supplies in addition to the loss of an eastern ally to the British Empire.

There was also a letter from the Secretary of War. The telegram asked if Major General Sadaoyi Hamilton was qualified, and said that several British generals who had distinguished themselves in the Boer War would be interested in taking over the post if Hamilton was overwhelmed.

The positions of the two telegrams were completely different, and the prime minister wanted Sadaoyi to end the war as soon as possible. And the Army clearly wants a chance to perform. To be honest, in the Boer War, the British generals really did not perform very well. Sa Daoyi could only smile bitterly at this, ending the war is simply impossible to do now. Even if he wanted to, neither the Russians nor the Japanese.

At this stage, both sides have already fought together, and Little Japan has already died so many people in Liaoxi. Do you let them withdraw? And Lao Maozi, Sa Daoyi originally thought that the Russians' war against Jinzhou would be smooth sailing.

The Beiyang Army first lost 100,000 soldiers in Cao Kun's hands, and then the Jianchang defense line was betrayed by Lu Jianzhang, and the Russian army effortlessly hit the Guannei, and the troops approached the Shanhaiguan defense line. At that time, everyone thought that the vulnerable Beiyang Army would lose their third line of defense within a week.

The army of more than 400,000 has already lost more than 100,000 troops, a large number of war materials have been discarded, and the Beiyang Army has no production capacity of its own, so what else is there to fight at this time?

However, with the pressure of the Russian army and the threat to the city of Beijing, Yuan Shikai suddenly won the support of the people of the whole country. Every day, a large number of young people poured into the city of Beijing, and these people did not go anywhere else, but lined up at the recruitment point of the Beiyang Army. The Beiyang Army recruitment point, which was empty before, has lined up for a long time in the past few days, and Yuan Shikai has easily recruited more than 100,000 soldiers, and the recruitment is still continuing!

At the same time, the people of Beijing are still marching, but their march is already supporting Yuan Shikai's Beiyang government, and many residents of Beijing have donated all the things they can use at home, and for a while, Lao Yuan's warehouse was full of all kinds of materials! He has everything but no guns!

And Yuan Shikai is obviously fighting with the Russians now, and he doesn't care about the quality of the soldiers at all, those recruits have just enlisted in the army, and after learning to shoot, he was sent to the front line, and the continuous reinforcements made Akberil's footsteps never able to cross the Shanhaiguan defense line.

The war has been fought for ten days, Duan Qirui is still standing there, after Yuan Shikai suddenly had the courage, his troops seem to have changed, as the battle progressed, as the people of Beijing began to vigorously support the Beiyang Army, as those young people who went to join the army joined the battlefield, as the villagers handed over the only little food they had at home to their hands, they gradually understood what the clothes on their bodies meant, and what the guns in their hands were for!

Maybe their training is not as good as that of the Russians, maybe they are not as strong as the Russian soldiers, maybe their tactical level is far inferior to the other side, but when they understand why they are holding guns, they are a real army! The position of the Beiyang Army to hold on to the last man often appeared, and there were frequent cases of fighting in which the Beiyang Army did not surrender even though it knew that it would die.

Sa Daoyi really didn't know when and how the war would end, he was really not sure. But now Sadaoyi understands one thing, the Russians are fighting a real army. This army is called Beiyang.

In the embassy, Sa Daoyi's face was very solemn, looking at Yuan Shikai sitting opposite him, Sa Daoyi felt that this person was really a little strange.

"Old friend, isn't there room for relaxation?"

Mr. Sadaoyi's tone was very calm, he did not think about making a big deal out of it, and at the beginning he even supported Yuan Shikai to start a war with the Russians. It's just that after Britain signed an alliance agreement with Russia, he felt that the Russians were more important as an ally than Yuan Shikai, so he temporarily abandoned the Beiyang government.

Yuan Shikai sat on the sofa and didn't speak, he was actually very scared in his heart now. Duan Qirui's defense line was precarious, although it seemed that he was sending reinforcements batch after batch. But how much combat effectiveness these reinforcements have Yuan Shikai knows very well, that is, Duan Qirui is an expert in fighting, if he changes a little less, a small mistake can make the defense line collapse.

If Shanhaiguan is lost, Beijing will be in danger.

"If the Russians are willing to withdraw their troops and promise not to meddle in the affairs of the Mongols, I am willing to renegotiate peace with Mr. Sadaoyi, you know. I'm not a person who likes to fight, I'm not Yang Xiaolin. ”

Sa Daoyi shook his head slightly, will Lao Maozi withdraw from Mongolia? It's just a fantasy. Even if the British Empire is the military hegemon in the world now, the Russians will not sell their face. Sa Daoyi now hates that guy who signed a military treaty with Russia! If it weren't for the treaty that binds them. How could the British be dragged down this deep pool by Lao Maozi?

"I can get you to sit back down and settle it through peaceful negotiations, while we in England, France, and the United States will come in as intermediaries. I promise you'll give you support, how's that? ”

That's all Sa Daoyi could do, when the Mongolian problem had just erupted. Yuan Shikai is seeking a peaceful solution, and now this plan is much more perfect than what Yuan Shikai asked for at the beginning.

Lao Yuan smiled and shook his head slightly: "Mr. Sa Daoyi, I insist that any problem must be resolved through peace talks. But this time, the premise of the peace talks was that the Russians had to withdraw their troops in China first! ”

"Do you think you can really win against the Russians? Old friend, your line of defense is in danger, and I have you in mind. ”

Lao Yuan glanced at him, took out a document from his arms and threw it on the table: "If you really think about me, can you explain this thing?" ”

Sa Daoyi picked it up and looked at it, this document was discussed with Abe Shotaro, about the plan to support Sun Wen's southern government. There are only three copies, one is in his own place, one is in Abe Shoutaro's, and one is ready to be handed over to Sun Wen for reference, how can Lao Yuan have it in his hands, he really doesn't know.

Sa Daoyi stopped talking, such silence was obviously expected by Yuan Shikai. Lao Yuan's fat palm slapped the sofa: "Oops! This is friendship, our friendship for decades! ”

After he finished speaking, the whole person stood up and picked up the cane he put next to him: "Okay, Mr. Sa Daoyi, I didn't come to ask you about the guilt this time, how can I say that I am also an understanding person, and I don't need you to explain." I just want to inform you that our Beiyang government has passed an emergency temporary bill, so far the Chinese nation is in an emergency, Yuan is not talented, and has been elected as the president of the Republic of China, and the inauguration ceremony has not yet been determined, please Mr. Sa Daoyi wait for another notice. ”

Sa Daoyi's face didn't have any expression: "Yuan, don't you think that your current job is like a joke?" ”

Lao Yuan nodded: "Is it a joke, you wait and see, and say goodbye." ”

Yuan Shikai really plans to sit in the position of president. This is not only what they mean from the Beiyang side, but also Yang Du, who came to negotiate on behalf of the Northeast.

Whether it is Yang Xiaolin or Yang Du, they all want to make this war a national resistance war. Now that Yuan Shikai has declared war, Mr. Sun is still insisting on his development in the south. Chen Tianhua told Mr. Sun in the telegram to let him be, but did he really keep him out of the matter? That's not Commander Yang's personality, nor is it Yuan Shikai's personality.

Once the Northeast supports Yuan Shikai as president, Sun Wen must make a statement. You don't need to say whether you participate in this war or not, you just need to say whether you admit or not recognize Lao Yuan, the big president.

Mr. Sun's idea is really very good, and it really doesn't do any bad for China. It's a pity, there is a bandit and a bitch by his side, how can these two people let Mr. Sun be alone? Either you're on the boat or they're going to kick you out! (To be continued......)
