"Report, Lushun Urgent Intelligence." Before Ito Hirobumi, who was discussing his future plans with Inoue, finished speaking, he saw his attendant walk in with a piece of information in his hand.

Lushun's information, that must have been sent by the intelligence department over there, without the slightest hesitation, Ito Hirobumi quickly took the telegram from the hand of the attendant above.

Smack, Ito Hirobumi, who had read the telegram, suddenly pressed the telegram in his hand on the table, quickly stood up, and walked to the map.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, what's wrong?" Inoue Shin, who didn't understand what caused Hirobumi Ito to react so much, followed behind Hirobumi Ito and asked softly.

"I just received news that the German warships in Lushun and the warships of the Beiyang Naval Division are loading supplies."

What the? Inoue Xin stretched her neck all of a sudden, this is also too strange, if it is to deal with the escort fleet, this is not necessary to dispatch the Arthur fleet at all, but now. What's going on here?

Baga, what exactly is Liu Jun going to do? Hirobumi Ito looked at the map on the wall and thought depressedly.

"Order, the intelligence center must crack the Liaodong telegram within one day, otherwise, all of them will be seppuku to thank the emperor." Hirobumi Ito, who was angry, yelled at Inoue Shin.

For the first time, Inoue Shin found out that Ito Hirobumi was talking so loudly to herself, and knew that Ito Hirobumi was on fire. So I let out a sigh and walked out quickly.

I don't know if it's the threat of being killed, or because it's really a simple code, anyway, five hours after Ito Hirobumi gave the order, that is, at about six o'clock in the evening, Inoue picked up the deciphered telegram and walked to Ito Hirobumi's office.

"Your Excellency, the telegram has been deciphered." Inoue Shin broke into Ito's room with a happy face.

Pop, as soon as he heard this beautiful voice, Ito Hirobumi suddenly stood up from his chair and asked, "Where is his target?" ”

"According to deciphered intelligence, the target of Liaodong's offensive was Vladivostok." Saying this, Inoue Xin quickly walked to the map and said again.

"Liaodong's battle plan was to concentrate the Weihai Fleet and the Arthur Fleet, converge on the Yellow Sea, and then pass through the Tsushima Strait. Turn the road to the north, attack Vladivostok, and completely cut off the retreat of more than 100,000 troops in our Far East. ”

What a vicious plan, as soon as Ito Hirobumi heard it, his whole body suddenly trembled, if this plan is realized in Liaodong, then there is no need to cut the stomach, and his entire cabinet members, the Minister of the Navy and the Minister of the Army, are waiting to let the angry Japanese people dig up their ancestral graves.

The intelligence officers have made a great contribution this time, and they should be rewarded heavily. Thinking of this, Ito Hirofumi pointed at Inoue Xin: "Meritorious service to this intelligence officer, all military ranks will be promoted by one level." ”

"Understood." Inoue nodded, and after recording the order, Inoue returned to his position with Hirobumi Ito.

Now that we have figured out the direction of operations in Liaodong, the next step is much easier.

Ito Hirobumi also knows very well that with the current strength of the combined fleet, it is impossible to fight to the death with the huge fleet, so he said to Inoue Xin, or, the combined fleet ambushed in the Tsushima Strait, but in this way, even if he can give the current Liaodong Lushun Fleet and Weihai Fleet great damage, but I am afraid that the combined fleet will all sink in the Tsushima Strait, then for Japan's future homeland defense war, the Liaodong Fleet will be the same as entering its own home, without any obstruction, This is something that must not appear, and without resistance, then once it was taken by Liaodong Vladivostok. The retreat of these hundreds of thousands of imperial soldiers can be regarded as completely cut off.

The only way, I'm afraid there is only one, and that is to use the Vladivostok Fort and the Combined Fleet to fight with the Liaodong Fleet in the Vladivostok area.

"No, with our current strength, we can't compete with the Liaodong Fleet." Hirobumi Ito shook his head and thought that Inoue had spoken his mind.

"What do you mean, Prime Minister?" Inoue asked suspiciously.

"Take advantage of the Vladivostok terrain. Defeated the Liaodong attacking fleet. ”

It seems that there is only that, sighing, Inoue nodded, and recorded the order, ready to be issued to Ito Yuhiro.

"Head, the Japanese moved." Outside the Lushun Command Department, Zhong Lin's excited voice woke up Liu Jun, who was in front of the map.

moved, Liu Jun, who heard the news, took the telegram and read it a few times, but no, it was the news from the Japanese station, the combined fleet in Japan was urgently filling coal, and the first batch of three cruisers had already set off last night, and the place where they went was in the direction of Vladivostok.

Hmph, since you have taken the bait, then you have to watch Li He's performance, smiling slightly, Liu Jun put the telegram on the table and looked at Zhong Lin and Zheng Yiqian who were standing beside him, and then took a deep breath.

"Tell Li He that the fast food plan will be implemented immediately."

The fast food plan is named after the Liaodong Navy went to Tokyo this time, and it means to run away with a few tons of shells, but this is not a meal, but a shell that can kill people.

"Look, okay head." Zhong Lin nodded happily, turned around and ran out, he wanted to tell Li He the news in person.

The Navy Command, since the encrypted false message was sent, Li He has been waiting in the headquarters all day for the order to leave, however, time has passed, and he still has not seen the personnel of the headquarters to inform him, and sometimes he wonders if he is too careful to let the Japanese side decipher the message, so that the United Fleet does not have any movement.

If this is the case, then I am really a sinner in this plan.

"Commander, take a break." Yan Fu, who was on the side, saw that Li He was still standing in front of the map, and stepped forward and said carefully.

Rest, can't get accurate news, where does Li He dare to rest, he is very anxious, now the second squadron in Weihai and the fifth and first squadron in Lushun have been prepared, just waiting for the order to leave, but now, but there is no news, how can he sleep.

Report. Director Zhong Lin is here. A guard in a captain's uniform walked in and reported loudly.

"Please." As soon as he heard that it was Zhong Lin, Li He knew in his heart that Li He must have brought good news. Otherwise, Zhong Lin would definitely not come here in person. Although Li He has a good relationship with Zhong Lin and others, he knows that Zhong Lin, like Liu Jun, is not a big deal, and he is definitely the same as the big shopkeeper and let the people below do it.

"Li He, good news, good news." Before entering the door, Zhong Lin's voice sounded outside the door, it seemed that it was good news, hearing this voice, Li He nodded, and a smile appeared on his face.
