Chapter 463: Night Attack

Because the commotion caused by the Zhenyuan ship did not last long, and then the entire Tianjin dock was put under martial law. A group of elite soldiers of the Northeast Army personally took control of the dock to prevent any security problems. After all, the Japanese delegation is here to negotiate. Whether the two sides are hostile or not, their security needs to be guaranteed.

Shi Yuewang, foreign minister of the Beijing Government, personally came to greet him, giving the Japanese enough face in a formal way. However, the atmosphere between the two sides is not very friendly, after all, the two sides are still in a state of hostility, and the soldiers of both sides are still fighting to the death on the battlefield, even if both sides are interested in negotiating, they will not make a warm welcome posture. Shi Yuewang will come to Tianjin Port to greet him just for the etiquette of a great country.

"You're Mr. Sun! I want to do it this time, and I'm sorry for you. The dean has set up a banquet in the capital to entertain Mr. The chubby Shi Yuewang said to Sun Wen with a smile on his face.

"Mr. Shi is polite! Sun's trip was also for the peace of China, and he didn't dare to take this credit. Sun Wen said humbly.

"Why should Mr. Sun be too modest, besides, the dean also admires Mr. very much, and asks me to receive him well." Shi Yuewang said with a smile.

At this moment, the Japanese diplomatic mission came ashore and looked at the Chinese officials who ignored them, and their noses almost crooked! Since the Russo-Japanese War, when Japan became a world power as the victorious power, Japanese diplomats have not been crowded everywhere they go, and such a sloppy thing has hardly happened again. I didn't expect to taste this kind of disregard again in China today.

Looking at Shi Yuewang, who had an intimate conversation with Sun Wen but ignored them, Japanese Foreign Minister Ichiro Honno felt very uncomfortable.

"Hmph!" In order to attract attention, Ichiro Motono snorted heavily.

Shi Yuewang looked away from Sun Wen and turned his head to look at the Japanese group.

"You are Mr. Ichiro Honno, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Japan. What a rarity! We have already arranged accommodation. Please! Shi Yuewang said with a smile. But his smile is fake. In Japan, almost all people of some status speak Chinese, and Japan and China have a long relationship, and Japanese culture and China also have something in common, so Honno Ichiro naturally feels Shi Yuewang's neglect.

"Mr. Shi, is this your Chinese hospitality?" Ichiro Honno spoke. Although he is fluent in Chinese, his tone is still a little weird, which is no wonder, after all, Chinese is the most difficult language in the world to learn, and even if the little devil learns it from a young age, it is difficult to compare with his mother tongue.

"Mr. Motono, we are known as the country of etiquette, and we will do our best to receive our friends, but we will not spare the bullets in our hands when we are enemies. I think Mr. Honno knows this. Shi Yuewang said meaningfully.

"Humph!" Ichiro Motono didn't have anything to say, so he could only snort and strode away.

"! What is it! Looking at Ichiro Honno's arrogant back, Shi Yuewang's words almost made Sun Wen, who was standing on the side, fall on his stomach. Mu Siran beside him was even more red, if he hadn't seen a foreign reporter walking by. I'm afraid I've laughed out loud a long time ago.

Wang Shi also looked at this fat man who was not famous in the Northeast with a strange face. Shi Fat Man is famous for his sharp mouth, as well as his well-known habits. If you use modern terms, Shi Fatzi is a lolitacon. This hobby was also opposed in later generations, and the Northeast naturally did not advocate it. But Shi Yuewang is excepted. The Northeast government has enacted a new marriage law, and although it does not explicitly oppose polygamy, it will undoubtedly become difficult to achieve polygamy.

In the new marriage law of the Northeast, it is stipulated that the Northeast promotes monogamy. But polygamy is not prohibited, but if you want to legally have a second wife, you will have to pay a huge price. For example, if you want to marry again, you have to pay a huge tax on polygamy to the government, and the more wives you marry, the more money you need. This is Feng Yong's method based on the family planning of later generations. In this era, it is not easy to put an end to the horror of concubines, and in addition to the fact that he Feng Yong himself has several wives, if monogamy is implemented in later generations from the beginning, it will inevitably be criticized, so Feng Yong will choose to ease up. Of course, in the area of human rights, the Northeast implements gender equality and strives to improve the status of women in order to reduce the disadvantaged status of women at the root.

At that time, when the Northeast went to Beijing to negotiate, Shi Fatzi hooked up with a ten-year-old girl, which was nothing, after all, even if the Northeast implemented the marriage law, it would be difficult to change the bad habits accumulated in society in a short time. It's no wonder that this girl's identity is too unusual. She was the daughter of Prince Su, the Manchu prince, the daughter of the Japanese diplomat Kawashima Quickami, and most importantly, her Japanese name was Yoshiko Kawashima. Hearing this name, Feng Yong's first thought was that this woman couldn't stay. After all, this is a famous female spy who can influence the course of Chinese history. In his previous life, he committed a lot of blood debts in China.

But then Feng Yong saw this innocent little girl, and it was difficult to get it, and then watched the little girl obsessed with Shi Yuewang, Feng Yong simply gave an order in person, and married Kawashima Yoshiko to Shi Fatzi as his wife, and then ordered someone to find some ladies to teach her how to teach her husband and children, and even gave Shi Fatzi an order, before the little girl was sixteen years old, Shi Fatzi could not have a round room with her. This order made Shi Fatzi's face turn green. Later, the more the news spread, the more crazy it became, and the more it spread, the more unscored, and Shi Yuewang became the laughing stock of everyone aggrievedly.

Although everyone was very unkind to the Japanese, after all, they were here to negotiate this time, and there was a lot of etiquette, so it was difficult for the Japanese to say anything even if they complained.

The group took a break in Tianjin and then set off for Beijing. Li Jun has everything ready in Beijing. Looking at it now, the two sides are still competing on the battlefield, and of course the sooner the peace talks can be conducted, the better. Ichiro Honno once sent a telegram to the Japanese government, asking the military department to contact the military in China, stop the fighting, and wait for the outcome of the negotiations. This proposal was flatly rejected by hard-line military officers led by Aritomo Yamagu. Of course, the scheming Yama Prefecture Aritomo knows that if Japan can no longer gain an advantage on the battlefield, then even if it is at the negotiating table, it will probably be difficult to reap the benefits, and the last negotiations between Japan and Northeast China have already made Japan recognize the strength of Northeast China. You must know that at that time, the Northeast was still a small local force that only occupied the three eastern provinces, and at that time they dared to turn their faces at the negotiating table, and now they are no longer what they used to be, and they have an absolute upper hand on the battlefield. Therefore, he will definitely not give up using war to increase the bargaining chips in the negotiations.

Southeastern Theater.

The night was dark, and the front of the 1st Division of the New Army in Dongxi, which had experienced a day of noisy, also fell silent. Only the occasional patrolling soldier indicates that this place is very strong.

There was no moon tonight, and there were some clouds in the sky, so the night was thick, and although it was not enough to reach out and not see the five fingers, it was not very different. At this time, on the vast river, fishing boats are transported one by one, and then they are side-by-side on the ice, and then tightly tied together with iron cables, and then covered with wooden planks. These people are very skillful, and with the addition of ice that can stand people, the pontoon bridge stretches towards the opposite shore at a speed that is almost visible to the naked eye.

If a flare is fired into the air at this time, you will see three pontoon bridges on the river that look like horizontal lines.

At night, when people were tired and horses were at their weakest, the Japanese pontoon bridge was finally paved on the north bank of the river. The Japanese soldiers even wrapped a layer of cotton cloth around their feet so that they could move silently.

Boom Boom!

The Japanese heavy artillery brigade on the south bank of the Yalu River suddenly became powerful, and the entire river was as bright as day for a while.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! ......"There was a great chaos on the positions of the 1st Division of the New Army in the Southwest. Under the heavy artillery bombardment, the positions built by the new army simply became fuel after the explosion of the heavy artillery, and soon the positions of the new army became a sea of fire.

"Kill!" The Japanese army, which had been lurking for a long time, attacked.

Da-da-da-da!

The sound of Japanese-made heavy machine guns rang out on the ground of the New Army.

"This is the position of the reinforcements of China, rush up and defeat them!" The Japanese commander listened to the familiar roar of the Type 38 heavy machine gun, and his expression was not shocked but delighted. He knew he had found the right place to wait for someone. In order to strengthen the firepower of the front, the Northeast Army equipped two brigades of Japanese-made equipment. However, the heavy machine guns equipped with these two brigades are basically the more advanced Taisho Type 3 heavy machine guns, rather than the relatively backward Type 38 heavy machine guns. The fact that the Type 38 heavy machine guns that are now widely used on the positions of the Chinese Army can only indicate that this is a reinforcement of the Chinese Army using captured imperial weapons and equipment.

In the face of the frantic attack of the Japanese army, the Northeast Army soon collapsed, and after resisting for a while, the soldiers withdrew in disarray, and even escaped without even having time to blow up a few heavy machine guns. The retreat of the new army greatly boosted the spirit of the Japanese army, and the original cautious mind was completely occupied by the desire to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions.

"Report to Your Excellency Commander, the front line is urgent, our army has broken through the three lines of defense of the Chinese Army, and is now attacking the fourth line of defense of the Chinese Army, which is also the last line of defense of this position, and behind it is the command account of the famous general Cai Yi of the Chinese Army." The herald's face was full of excitement.

"Yo Xi, the imperial army is invincible, what Cai Yi, what a merry general, in front of the heroic imperial army are all rubbish." Lieutenant General Shimakawa Fumihachiro said with excitement on his face. This operation was conceived by the commander of the 5th Division, Narimoto Oi. But when it was implemented, there was a dispute between the two sides. Lieutenant General Shimakawa Fumihachiro, of course, hoped that this feasible plan would be carried out by his own Fourth Division. Lieutenant General Oi Naritato was naturally reluctant, and after a compromise between the two sides, it was finally decided that the two divisions would each send two wings to form a reinforced brigade and attack collectively. As for the 8th Division and the remnants of the Korean Army, they could only serve as frontal attacks to attract the attention of the Northeast Army.
