"Yes!" Rong Lu should come down, "One more thing, I want to ask for a decree, Peng Yulin, the commander of the Beiyang Naval Division, went to the fold and asked to ask for war in the south, and asked the Queen Mother to decide." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"This Peng Xueshuai is very ambitious," the Empress Dowager Cixi smiled, "There is no need to go south now, take a look first." ”

What to see? Look at the offensive of the French? "Wu Changqing is in the Nanyang Naval Division, I want to see how effective the Nanyang Naval Division is first. If not, Beiyang will go south, but before going south, we have to see if there are any changes in various countries. ”

There are two big countries in the north eyeing the side of the couch, this is of course a thing that must be guarded against, of course, Japan is not a big country, and he does not have the strength to provoke China, but he may not know when he will be crazy and want to take advantage of the fire, the same is true of Russia, although Kashmir has given up a part, but the North Sea is still occupied, if the new tsar wants to send his Arctic Ocean fleet to blackmail, this is also an unforeseeable thing, and then we must first figure out these things in foreign intelligence affairs, Only the Beiyang sailors can make plans.

"Let all the officers and men of the Beiyang Naval Division suspend their vacation and be on standby at any time." Empress Dowager Cixi ordered, "Feng Zicai has already sent troops to Nanguan, what is the news there, I will report it as soon as possible, these days, the Excerpt Military Aircraft Department will deal with it first, if it is not a particularly important matter, it will be done first." ”

"Huh."

"Then look at Feng Zicai's ability," the Empress Dowager Cixi muttered to herself, she probably only knew about Feng Zicai's comeback, but she didn't know the specific course of the war, so she could only wait nervously, waiting for news from the south, but on the other hand, she was not ready to wait, "Send a telegram to Zuo Zongtang, I have a secret decree for him!" ”

In the mountains and mountains, more than 10,000 people lined up in a long snake formation, slowly marching towards the south, and the herald came to report, "My lord, sixty miles ahead will be to Zhennan Pass!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the big guy's originally somewhat tired spirit suddenly became vibrant, and the destination was in front of him, Feng Zicai nodded, turned around, and said loudly to the team, "Brothers, work hard!" It's going to be Zhennan Pass soon! ”

The soldiers suddenly agreed, and their feet sped up a little faster, and Feng Zicai hurriedly ordered the heralds, "Tell the scouts to go out of the customs to investigate, and see where the vanguard of the army is!" ”

"Yes!" Feng Zicai gave the order again, "Are there guards on Zhennan Pass?" ”

"There are two hundred guards."

"His grandmother's, what's the use of two hundred people?" Feng Zicai scolded and said, but he also knew that the army of about 10,000 had arrived in Vietnam, and the Zhennan Pass in the rear must be empty to a few points, there was no way, "Send a thousand people to defend the Zhennan Pass first, don't let the French arrive first!" ”

Feng Zicai originally thought that he was about to compete with the French for Zhennan Pass, but he didn't expect that half an hour later, the scout came to report again, "The French striker has captured Wenyuan Town!" ”

Wenyuan Town and Zhennan Pass are only more than twenty miles away, and they are the transit points from Langshan to Zhennan Pass, "In this way," Feng Zicai's eyes rolled, "They are not marching so fast, since the vanguard has just arrived, then the army is still coming." Feng Zicai stroked his beard and thought for a while, "Immediately let the 1,000 people we stationed in Zhennan Pass set off for Wenyuan and fight a dozen French!" ”

Feng Zicai's eldest son was a little worried, "Let's attack rashly like this, I'm afraid that the casualties will be too great, and it will not be good if we hurt Ruiqi for the first time, if we anger the French, he will come to attack Zhennan Pass overnight, but I'm afraid that we are not ready and can't resist." ”

"Don't worry, I'm going to provoke them, their vanguard has just arrived in Wenyuan, so the army has not arrived, and the bulky ordnance of the artillery has definitely not arrived, if we wait until their cannon arrives, what are we going to play? Can human life hold off the artillery of the French? It is better to take advantage of their unstable foothold, but when the momentum is arrogant, hit him hard, so that they can stop the French army. Feng Zicai shook his head, "If you don't do a little trick, you can't win the French army, boss, you will personally lead the troops!" He said to his eldest son, "Look at how many of them there are, wait until you tease them, don't attack with the follow-up army, and come to Zhennanguan alone to find death, then you can win!" ”

The vanguard commander of the French army, Nigri, is lazily lying on the best people's bed in the town to rest, marching for so many years, from Thang Long all the way to Bac Ninh, Taiyuan, Lang Son, and then to Wen Yuan, he has not slept in such a comfortable bed for a long time, this oriental wooden bed with a good silk quilt, it is too luxurious to enjoy, about in Paris there are few people who can use oriental silk as a quilt to sleep, he was sore, lay on the bed and stretched, moaned comfortably, he has made up his mind, After defeating the Chinese, grab the best Oriental wooden bed in the East and return to Paris, and of course, these silks that feel as smooth as a girl's skin.

There has been news from Paris, yes, France has already started a war with China, then the problem that General Miller was worried that an invasion of China would cause a diplomatic accident no longer exists, and then, of course, you can let go, and now it is not time for lunch, Nigri looked at his pocket watch, decided to lie down for a while, and then got up for lunch, ate lunch and waited for the appearance of the army, then he could set off to attack the Chinese that I heard was only two stories high and the so-called majestic checkpoint.

Of course, if he is allowed to fight by himself, of course, this pass can also be beaten, but now it is better to be lazy, when he was sleepy, the herald stepped on the leather boots and knocked on the door and came in, "Mr. Colonel, a group of Chinese troops have appeared in the north!" ”

Commuter passes are coming!

"What are they doing here?" Nigri said lazily, "Are you harassing us again like the other day?" Don't pay attention, these Chinese, after being defeated, always stick to us like kraft candy, and can't fight us head-on, they will only play such a small trick, use harassment to deal with us, and let the musketeers repel them. ”

The herald walked out, and after a while, there was a sparse musket shot outside to Negri's satisfaction, and he wanted to take a good nap, recuperate, and wait until the army arrived, but after a while, there was a sound of shooting and noise outside, and he turned over in displeasure, "Soldier! He rushed out of his favorite bedroom and bed, "What the hell is going on!" (To be continued.) )
