Lao Yuan is definitely not making news, but making explosive news! There are also many people in China who are quite skeptical of Yuan Shikai's approach, and even those who want Yuan Shikai to be tough feel that Lao Yuan has done it.

China's national power can now be so weak that it can no longer be weaker, and it is still inferior to that of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. Just fighting Lao Maozi has little chance of winning, and Yuan Shikai actually declared war on all foreign troops who entered Chinese soil with guns! Such a thing, Lao Yuan has been the second person throughout the ages. The first is Cixi, who can't find the north even if she is beaten.

In fact, Yuan Shikai dared to do this after some consideration, Lao Yuan is not Cixi, he can be said to be very clear about the current international situation, Europe is already extremely tense, various countries are looking for their allies, and the border between Germany and France may be misfired at any time. Declaring war on the British Empire themselves, it is impossible for them to say that they will send troops to China to fight.

He was confronted with the Russian troops, or the Japanese. It doesn't matter, he can't beat the Russians anymore, and that's how it is with a few more of them. No matter how many people objected, after Lao Yuan declared war, he felt that the troubles that had been surrounding him seemed to be gone suddenly, and he kind of understood that Yang Xiaolin always liked to fight with people, and it turned out that sometimes he didn't think about the consequences when he did things, and it felt very good.

The key to the matter now is Sun Wen! At this time, the so-called Jiangshan is no longer considered, Lao Yuan only hopes that he can prove something after going all out, winning or losing is no longer important to him, and it is enough to fight.

But if Sun Wen stabbed him in the back, he might not even have a chance to fight hard.

North Korea, Uiju.

The whole city was filled with the smell of gunsmoke, and the burst of blood stimulated Yang Xiaolin's nerves, and an hour ago, in the room of the Japanese army headquarters in Yiju, Yang Xiaolin sat on the chair of Kazuo Kushima, the commander-in-chief of the Japanese army on the Korean side. Looking at the newspapers and some scattered Japanese intelligence on the table.

After forcibly crossing the Yalu River, Yang Xiaolin turned off his radio station and carried out a forced march for two days and one night! It can be seen from several telegrams left by Kazuo Kushima that Dashan Yan thought that the volunteers would inevitably find a place to rest after suffering heavy losses in the Yalu River, so he ordered the Japanese troops on the Korean side to search immediately.

When the Volunteers appeared under the castle of Uiju, Kazuo Kushima realized that something was wrong, but it was too late. The Volunteers broke the North Korean army's defense line with a single charge, and Kazuo Kushima could only flee in a hurry with his troops.

Commander Yang's eyes were red, and his face was full of exhaustion. But the winner's smile hung on the corner of his mouth, and it was really important for the volunteers to defeat Uiju! This not only meant that Yang Xiaolin opened a gap in the Korean defense line set up by the Japanese, but more importantly, all the military supplies of the Japanese army in Uiju fell into the hands of the volunteers.

It's not much, but it can also allow the troops to replenish it. This is definitely a little charcoal fire in the heavy snow for the volunteers who have almost run out of ammunition and food. Cai Ye is already counting the supplies and distributing them to various troops.

And Commander Yang was in Kazuo Kujima's headquarters to see if he could find clues and information that were useful to him. Although some important documents were burned before Kazuo Kujima fled, Commander Yang still had a harvest, and from the yesterday's newspaper thrown in the trash, he knew that Yuan Shikai had actually declared war!

And what shocked him even more was that Lao Yuan actually declared war on the eight countries at the same time! Yang Xiaolin's heart suddenly felt a little like laughing.

He was very clear about how much courage Yuan Shikai had. If Lao Yuan was really so fearless, he would definitely choose to fight with him at the beginning, and he would have fought in Mongolia before he declared war. What did the adults do? Can Yuan Shikai be forced like this?

Anyway, Lao Yuan took this step, and he was really very happy. Politically, this means that war is no longer a matter for the Volunteers. The fighting will not be limited to the Northeast either. Militarily speaking, at least someone can help them contain the Russian forces. Personally, Yang Xiaolin was really happy that Lao Yuan could stand up and fight.

He read the newspaper three times before putting it down: "Did you see that?" Yuan Gong is much braver than us, and this time he declared war on eight countries. Hehe. ”

Feng Delin was taking off his shoes at this time to remove the blisters on his feet, and his brows were not wrinkled when he went down one stitch after another: "Xiaolin, let's declare war on several countries?" ”

Yang Xiaolin thought for a moment: "If I'm not mistaken." It seems that we have only declared war with the Russians. That's why I said that Yuan Gong is more courageous than us! Master Kong, after the radio station is set up, quickly contact the star station and ask them to react immediately, just say that we support Yuan Gong. ”

Kong nodded immediately: "Okay!" The radio station can be set up in no time, but it can take a long time to receive the signal. ”

Yang Xiaolin didn't urge, after all, the radio in this era is not like in the future, the frequency modulation has to be tried slowly, and sometimes you need to have a lot of luck.

He said worriedly: "I don't know how they are doing now, there has been no news for several days, and it is estimated that they are also worried about us." Tell them about our situation here, and ask Zhang Lao Wu how Tang Dahu is doing in Liaoping. ”

Kong landed and responded: "Don't worry, Commander, I know." ”

Yang Xiaolin began to rummage through Kazuo Jiujima's drawer again, although he had already rummaged through it several times, he still had to look for it again to see if there were any documents that were more useful to him that Kazuo Jiudao had left behind.

While looking for him, he asked, "Brother Feng, do you think we are going to say anything about Lao Yuan?" ”

Feng Delin didn't look up at all, and continued to pick there, one foot looked like it was already dripping with blood: "Just say support him." ”

Yang Xiaolin thought for a while, discussing such a thing with Feng Delin was obviously looking for the wrong person, and none of them were by Yang Du's side. His idea was to immediately form a unified front with Yuan Shikai, so that this war could become a war for the Chinese nation to resist the invasion of foreigners.

But he didn't know what Lao Yuan's attitude was now.

The situation of the Volunteer Army is not very good, although the Beiyang Army has declared war, it is not certain whether they are willing to play with themselves. I have to discuss this matter with Chen Tianhua and them first, and then get in touch with Yuan Shikai.

After making sure that there was really nothing of value on this desk, Commander Yang finally gave up: "Let's put it this first, the brothers are tired enough after running for two days, let everyone take a rest." I guess little Japan can't keep up with us now, so there should be time. ”

In the past two days, the volunteers have really spread their feet and run fiercely, and they have traveled a straight distance over the mountains and mountains, and little Japan has no ability to maneuver, and Commander Yang thinks that he can rest at least one day.

But as soon as he finished speaking, before the order was issued, Cai Ye came in from outside, and after entering the door, he said: "Commander, I found this, you can take a look." ”

A Japanese combat map was laid on the table, and Yang Xiaolin's eyes lit up all of a sudden! The marching lines of the various Japanese units on the map are clearly marked. And the date marked is actually this morning!

"Where did it come from?"

"Recovered from the body of a North Korean officer! I just examined the captured North Korean soldiers, and according to other North Korean soldiers we captured, that guy was Kazuo Kushima's translator and also worked as a clerical worker. I took him up and searched it, and found this inside his underwear! ”

Yang Xiaolin hahadaxiao. Although the map was marked in the morning, and it was very different with the Japanese march, it was not difficult to judge the direction of the Japanese army's march from above.

Feng Delin and others also came over, and Cai Yi's hand clicked on the Yalu River: "The Japanese didn't press over immediately after we crossed the river. Commander, as you can see from the annotations on the map. Dashanyan is arranging an interception line along the Yalu River with the main force, and they are advancing closer to Liaodong. Only three divisions pursued after us, and the three divisions maintained the most suitable distance between them, steadily pressing over. ”

Yang Xiaolin also saw it clearly. The red color on the map indicates the Japanese troops, starting from Dandong, one by one, small arrows are stretching along the Sino-North Korean border towards Liaodong. And the big arrow caught up only with the 10th Division of the 1st Army of the Japanese Army, the 8th Division of the 3rd Army, and the mixed 1st Division of the 4th Army.

In front of him, interception lines are also being formed. Dashanyan's meaning is obviously to let himself smash some of the Japanese army's pots and jars in Korea and ignore them, that is, to put on a solid front, first to ensure that the volunteers cannot escape back to Liaodong. Then rely on the North Korean troops to delay their own speed, once they are entangled by the three divisions behind, the Japanese army will use the thunderous momentum to kill themselves.

Even if those three divisions can't catch themselves, when the front of Dashanyan slowly presses over, they will have no way out.

More than 300,000 Japanese troops, plus more than 400,000 Japanese troops in Korea, are so cautious in beating themselves now that Ma Dashanyan is so cautious, which really makes Yang Xiaolin feel that the Japanese think too highly of themselves.

Cai Ye continued: "Commander, we will inevitably encounter resistance as we move forward, not to mention that our materials can no longer support us to continue fighting, even if we win one battle after another, we are destined to be slowly crushed to death by the Japanese. ”

The corners of Yang Xiaolin's mouth rose upward: "Is there no way out?" ”

Cai Yi shook his head: "No! I think we have a chance. ”

"Tell me about it."

Cai Yi's finger pointed to the northernmost part of North Korea on the map: "Go north!" Tonghua and Baishan can let us go back to Liaodong! Although the Japanese troops have already moved anywhere, as long as we are fast enough, there is a high probability that we will be in front of the Japanese army. ”

This is the reason why Dashanyan does not send a large force to pursue now, and Yang Dagui forcibly crossed the Yalu River regardless of casualties, which made the Japanese hastily pull up the defense line from Yingkou to Dandong completely abolished. In order to prevent the volunteers from rushing back to Changbai Mountain, the first thing he had to do was to pull another line of defense.

If Yang Xiaolin had let go of his speed now, it would have been possible to jump back before the new Japanese defense line was completed without being entangled by the Japanese troops. But this is only theoretically possible, because not only Yang Xiaolin, but also Cai Ye did not think that the Japanese army would watch them complete this military action.

The reason why Cai Yi made this suggestion is because there seems to be no way now.

Commander Yang's eyes looked at the map, and his eyes slowly changed, like a wolf suddenly discovering his prey: "Okay." Let the brothers rest for a day now, get a good night's sleep, and set off on time at seven o'clock in the evening, you take the eighth and ninth divisions, and go to the north. ”

After hearing this, Cai Yi glanced at Yang Xiaolin: "Commander, what about you?" ”

Commander Yang smiled and pointed his finger at Dandong: "Lao Tzu secretly hit back!" (To be continued......)
