"Okay, Dasan, you're also an old man in your sixties, what are you fighting for?"

Ye Zhichao smiled and comforted: "In Pyongyang, you still said that the old sister-in-law at home doesn't know the general situation, and the letter asks you to fight with your old arms and legs more leisurely, and don't just rush forward with your life; Wouldn't it be right now? Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

"Hmph, I'm just not convinced!"

Wei Rugui said angrily: "Say that we have lost Pyongyang, what if we don't leave, are you waiting for death in Pyongyang?" Pointing to Liu Shengxiu's 4,000 waste relatives and soldiers, plus Nie Shicheng's newly recruited mud legs that have not even touched a gun, let alone relieve the siege of Pyongyang, I think that any brigade of Japanese soldiers can completely annihilate them! ”

"Anger, anger; Haha-"

Ye Zhichao laughed and groaned: "After being in the cage for a long time, you can return to nature." ”

He Changying was silent, whether it was Fang Boqian in the sailor, or Ye Zhichao, the leader of the president of Pyongyang, they were all first-class figures in the officialdom of the Qing Dynasty.

Ye Zhichao is now the top military general of the Qing Dynasty, and Ding Ruchang is the right-hand man of Li Hongzhang's land and water armies.

And Fang Boqian is only 41 years old this year, but he is already a real deputy general of the Qing Dynasty, and his future prospects are obviously limitless.

However, it is these first-class figures of the Qing Dynasty, because they have seen through and colded the world, and since then they have no trace of blood on their bodies, they only know how to pursue advantages and avoid disadvantages, and only care about getting promoted and getting rich and playing with women.

"Fortunately, in this world, this Chinese nation, there are always some people who are different from you."

He Changying blew the slightly cold sea breeze and silently muttered to herself in her heart.

After Ye Zhichao finished laughing, he said to He Changying: "Brother He, the old brother is about to fall into trouble, I want to ask you for something, do you think it will be done?" ”

"What please, please, don't please, the military gate just say."

He Changying didn't understand a little, what did this Ye Zhichao need to 'please' himself.

Even if he is dismissed from his official position, he Ye Zhichao also has money and women, and his two sons are okay in the Beiyang system.

"Shizhen will go back to Jinmen with me this time, there will be no place for him in the artillery team in the future, I want to excuse myself, is there a suitable place in the Korean army?"

Speaking of this, Ye Zhichao couldn't help but feel gloomy in his heart.

is the so-called son of heaven and a courtier, not to mention this Wang Shizhen, his own sons and nephews who are high-flying and domineering on weekdays, it is estimated that they will be marginalized and sent to the cold palace in the near future.

For Wang Shizhen, who has been taken in by Ye Zhichao as a soldier since he was 15 years old, Ye Zhichao has always been regarded as his own junior to reuse and lift up over the years, just because he sees that this kid is exquisite, affectionate and righteous.

And this Pyongyang rout, including this return to China to suffer, also proves that he is indeed not wrong.

For such a person, Ye Zhichao did not give him a good place to go before leaving, and he was indeed uneasy in conscience; So he put down his face and came to beg He Changying, a hanging child in his early twenties.

"Junmen, I will serve you in the future."

Wang Shizhen next to him hurriedly said.

"Nonsense, you are a big man in his early thirties, what is the matter with me as an old man returning to his hometown to retire? Now is the time for you to make a difference! ”

Ye Zhichao glared at Wang Shizhen and reprimanded.

For the 'dragon' who will be the head of the world-famous 'Beiyang Three Heroes' in the future in He Changying's time and space, He Changying still has a good impression.

The three heroes of Beiyang, 'Dragon, Tiger, and Dog', are all masterpieces of the moment, and their strategies and troops are all first-class.

However, the personalities are different.

Feng Guozhang is neutral, but Wang Shizhen and Duan Qirui are at the left and right extremes.

Wang Shizhen is traditional and low-key, with a conservative and peaceful personality; He is a trustworthy person who remembers the old and talks about righteousness, has less ambition and selfish desires.

Duan Qirui has a radical and tough personality, heavy ambition and little selfishness, and stresses principles and ideals; It is really commendable that he is famous for his 'six no-prime ministers' who do not smoke, drink, prostitute, gamble, greed, or possess.

Feng Guozhang is a capable ordinary person, ambitious and selfish, has no major principles in life, and pays attention to immediate interests; and sometimes wandering, looking forward and backward at both ends of the first rat.

"It's okay to come here, but there is no suitable spot next to me for the time being;"

He Changying looked at Wang Shizhen and said, "Why don't you be my adjutant first, and then have a chance to go down the army later?" ”

When Ye Zhichao heard He Changying's first words, he was a little angry in his heart, but when He Changying finished speaking, he was immediately overjoyed.

Adjutant, this is to be cultivated as a close confidant.

This He Changying, really pays attention to the atmosphere, which is interesting enough!

Ye Zhichao turned his head and said to Wang Shizhen: "From now on, you are Lord He's soldier, you must regard it as the grace of your parents' recreation, never forget, and always keep it in mind; In the future, the world is big, and Lord He's words are the greatest, so don't see you yet! ”

"Greetings to my lordship!"

Wang Shizhen is not a fool, knowing that if there is no accident, this Lord He is very likely to be the person who will be in charge of Beiyang Niuer in the future, and immediately knelt down on his knees to say goodbye.

"Get up, get up;"

He Changying hurriedly helped Wang Shizhen up, and said sincerely: "Let's help the Korean army don't do this, and we will salute in the future; Don't say more, Shizhen, you just need to remember one sentence, 'You don't live up to me, I won't fail you!'" ’”

Ye Zhichao and Wei Rugui next to him couldn't help but be slightly moved when they heard it, feeling that this kid was simply a demon in grasping people's hearts.

With this sentence of 'you don't live up to me, I won't fail you', and you can't let Wang Shizhen, a guy who has always known how to repay his kindness, work hard for him?

"Boom!"

Sure enough, as He Changying's words came out, Wang Shizhen knelt on the deck of the ship again, and said in a slightly choked voice: "My subordinates are willing to die for adults, and I will not hesitate to do so!" ”

"Whew-"

Amid the sound of the whistle, the four of He Changying, who had had a simple dinner, boarded the deck of the merchant ship to lookout.

After a night-to-day journey, the American-flagged merchant ship sailed to Sanche Island, thirty miles north of Dalian Bay.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, even without a telescope, you can clearly see the stranded and burned 'Guangjia' in the shallow water on the edge of the island.

"If Fang Boqian deserves to die, but after all, he saved the Jiyuan ship; So what about Wu Jingrong, who escaped and was afraid of being responsible, and deliberately burned the ship? ”

Ye Zhichao said coldly: "The rewards and punishments of the imperial court are so unfair, indiscriminate, the board only hits Beiyang, how can it convince the public?" How not to chill the soldiers! ”

He Changying secretly rolled her eyes when she heard this, feeling that this guy was still defending herself.

"Huh? There are people on the island! ”

He Changying suddenly saw a small figure jumping around on the island of three vehicles, and couldn't help but exclaim strangely: "It's been almost half a month, and you haven't starved to death yet?" ”

Immediately, the merchant ship stopped, lowered a sampan, and several Chinese sailors on board rowed past.

When it was dark, the sailor of the Guangjia ship, who was about to become a ghost, was rescued, and shouted in gratitude: "Brothers, I, Li Yuanhong, am really grateful, great kindness, and there will be great rewards in the future!" ”

"Li Yuanhong?"

He Changying exclaimed again, she took a boat and actually met a prime minister and a big president!

Ye Zhichao looked at Li Yuanhong strangely and asked, "Why don't you swim back on the island?" ”

"I'm not familiar with water-"

What Li Yuanhong said is really poignant, a big engineer driving a Guangjia ship, is actually unfamiliar with water, and it makes people feel ridiculous when they say it.

"Well, history is really starting to turn!"

He Changying looked at the hungry and half-dead Li Yuanhong and whispered to himself.

If it weren't for his sharp eyes today, this 'future president' would have starved to death.

The merchant ship lifted anchor and continued to set sail, sailing along the Dalian Bay towards Bohai Bay.
