At the Military Aircraft Department, Zhang Zhidong was completely shocked by Songpan's words and shelled Tokyo.

With a snap, Zhang Zhidong took the telegram from Songpan's hand, there was no mistake, it was true, it was indeed true, Liaodong shelled Tokyo the night before.

"Lord Zhongtang, do you think we should report this matter to Lafayette?" Songpan took the telegram in his hand all the time, stepped forward and asked. 'Report, why don't you report, Zhang Zhidong nodded slightly, during this time, Cixi has been shouting to let the troops on the front line attack Liaodong. It is necessary to take back Hanzhong, Shaanxi. Even several times in a row it was a loud shout.

This made Zhang Zhidong very distressed, and he didn't know what to use to dispel her terrible thoughts, and now, the opportunity has come, that is, to show this telegram to Cixi, and whether to attack Hanzhong, 'Liu Jun can bomb the powerful Japanese capital, will he still be afraid of a court that has failed again and again.'

In a word, if you want to die, then attack, I will give an order immediately, I don't want to die, I still want to die in a proper manner, live for a few years, then behave in a good way, and don't mention the matter of attacking Liaodong from now on, as long as people don't come to beat themselves, then they have to burn high incense.

This is Zhang Zhidong's idea, how is it not Songpan's idea, Songpan also knows that the current imperial court is completely unable to confront Liaodong, and even, he already knows in his heart that how long this imperial court can survive depends on Liu Jun's mood, if Liu Jun is in a bad mood, then I am afraid that in less than two months, the troops in Hanzhong will enter Chengdu, and at that time, the imperial court will only have two ways left, one is to enter Guizhou, and the other is to surrender or perish, and there is no way to choose from now on.

"Let's go, we'll go now." Zhang Zhidong, who wanted to understand, was not bored with this hateful light rain, but from the place where he entered the military plane, picked up an umbrella, accompanied Songpan out of the gate, and then got on the sedan chair.

Two black sedan chairs slowly walked towards the palace in the rain.

There is little rain in the north, and it has rained continuously for nearly half a month, which makes Cixi's mood particularly bad, these are not important, the important thing is that he proposed to attack Hanzhong several times at the court meeting, but no one supported it, even Songpan, who has always been loyal to him, has raised objections, which makes Cixi, who has always said that if she wants to move her mouth, she will support it.

Squeak, who was standing in front of the window and observing Cixi outside the window, turned around, and she saw Li Lianying walking in.

"Lafayette, Zhang Zhongtang and Governor Songpan are here. I am waiting outside for a summons. Li Lianying walked up to Cixi in a few steps and knelt down and said.

No, these two old things, as soon as they heard that it was Zhang Zhidong and Songpan, Cixi snorted coldly with a blue face, turned around and prepared to go back to the inner hall. That is, the back hall.

"Lafayette, they said they had something important to discuss." Seeing that Cixi was leaving, Li Lianying hurriedly said.

That's right, Cixi lowered her head and thought about it, such a heavy rain, and she came to find herself, there must be something, you can't delay the big thing because of these two old things, thinking of this, Cixi looked at Li Lianying: "Let them come to the hall to see the mourning family." ”

In the main hall, that is, the original hall of the Governor's Palace, Cixi sat on a chair with a pale face, and now in her hands, it was still Zhang Zhidong and Songpan who had just received information from Liaodong.

I see if you dare to fight, looking at Cixi's face as white as cabbage, Zhang Zhidong actually felt a particularly comfortable feeling in his heart.

"Is this true?" After a while, Cixi pretended to be indifferent and asked the two people standing in front of her.

Is this still fake, looking at Cixi's pretending to ask, Zhang Zhidong snorted coldly in his heart, when is this, what is the need for Liaodong to deceive himself, and it is still a newspaper to openly deceive. Although he thought so in his heart, Zhang Zhidong still said: "Lao Buddha, the situation should be reliable, Liu Jun will not use such a big thing to fake, and this also contains Germany." ”

Hey, Cixi sighed when she heard this, she didn't know in her heart that this was true, but when she thought of that rebellious minister and thief, she couldn't be happy.

"Let's all go down, there's something to talk about tomorrow morning." After Cixi said this, she walked in, accompanied by Li Lianying.

"Zhongtang, what does Lafayette mean by this?" Songpan looked puzzled.

Hey, Zhang Zhidong smiled slightly, he knew that starting tomorrow, Cixi would not mention the words of attacking Liaodong.

Arthur Command. Facing Liu Jun, who was standing in front of the map, Ding Ruchang and the three of them were quietly carrying out Liu Jun's explanation.

From Liu Jun's current speech, the three of them already know that this time, the attack on Japan is divided into two parts, the first part is the Far East Corps formed by Duan Qirui and Feng Guozhang, that is, the Northern Advance Corps commands three corps plus the strength of one army and one regiment of the Russian army in Germany to attack the Japanese army in the Far East and assist the Tsarist Russian corps from Europe.

The second part is the 120,000 troops of the First Corps commanded by Ding Ruchang, the Qin Liang Korean Corps, and the three armies of the Korean Army, forming the Eastern Advance Corps, attacking Korea, solving the Japanese troops that have not yet evacuated Korea, and gathering at the port of Seoul to wait for landing.

The heaviest task of the Northern Advance Corps was to unite with the Tsarist army to defeat the Japanese army in the Far East, march to Vladivostok, assist the navy in seizing the port of Vladivostok, and then plan to command a large army to board ships from Lushun, Tianjin, and Vladivostok at the same time to attack Japan.

The general plan is to accomplish this task in the Far East and North Korea in three months.

Of course, the Northern Advance Corps had a heavy task, and there were also two reserve corps assembled on standby, which would cross the Heilongjiang River at any time to support Duan Qiruihe and Feng Guozhang.

Tower, put down the command pole in his hand, Liu Jun turned around, looked at the three commanders who had been standing in front of him for many years and had followed him with heavy troops, and asked lightly: "Do you understand?" ”

"Understood." Although Liu Jun was the youngest, this would not affect Liu Jun's position as the commander of the three.

Seeing that the three of them nodded, Liu Jun returned to his position slightly, and he knew in his heart that whether these three people could comprehensively solve the Far East this time was crucial to the plan of attacking Japan in the future.

"How? What are the difficulties? Taking a sip of tea, Liu Jun asked lightly.

There were difficulties, but no one of the three of them spoke, after all, no one could open this mouth.

Liu Jun understood too well, smiled slightly, Liu Jun pointed to the three people standing in front of him and said: "I know you, I especially want to have large-caliber artillery, this time, I have ordered the transfer of 10 110mm howitzers from the Northeast Ordnance Bureau to the Northern Advance Corps, and 3 to the Eastern Advance Corps."
