Chapter 099 Expansion

To attack Shandong, it is necessary to advance both sea and land. To this end, the navy strongly demands that the first army of the Japanese army stationed in North Korea withdraw the strength of a division and reinforce the Shandong battlefield.

This is equivalent to drawing firewood from the bottom of the pot!

Some friends in Shan County will never allow anyone to disrupt his established plan. Occupy Manchuria is his lifelong dream.

Since the 15th century, Japan has dreamed of setting foot on the land of China. Hundreds of years have passed, and this dream is about to come true. And the person who realizes this dream is destined to be him, not anyone else!

Youpeng of Shan County immediately ordered that the 3rd and 5th Divisions under the jurisdiction of the First Army immediately marched to Pyongyang, ignore Chunchuan's small enemies.

Capture Pyongyang, march on the Yalu River, and go straight to Manchuria! A friend from Shanxian County decided to ignore the base camp!

The First Army ignored Chunchuan, and the front of the army pointed straight to Pyongyang, and Zhou Charter finally got out of danger.

Five days later, Zhou Charter merged with Luo Mingfang, who arrived in Chunchuan first. Then, all the way north along the east coast of North Korea, walked for another two days to Yuanshan.

Yuanshan is a small coastal city, 500 kilometers away from Pyongyang, but Zhangzi Camp has been completely free from the threat of the Japanese army.

Along the way, Zhou Charter noticed that the North Korean people's attitude towards the Qing army was very unfriendly, and it changed a lot when the Qing army first entered North Korea. There are two reasons for this. First of all, the pro-army was defeated in Chenghuan and ceded the capital to the Japanese, which made the North Korean people extremely disappointed with the Qing army. More importantly, Ye Zhichao's defeated soldiers burned, killed and plundered all the way, causing an extremely bad impact.

Although the marching route of Zhou Charter's troops was different from Ye Zhichao's route of defeat, and the people along the way were not harassed by the Qing army, the reputation of the Qing army was damaged by Ye Zhichao, and the people ran away when they saw the Qing army from afar.

The team came to a small village outside Yuanshan City and reported to Zhou Charter that there was no one in the village, the door of the house was locked, and all the people ran away.

Zhou Charter sighed secretly, this is the evil created by Ye Zhichao! When the North Korean people saw the Qing army, they were like seeing the plague god, and they were afraid to hide.

Zhou Charter ordered the team to camp outside the village, and no one was allowed to enter the village to disturb the people. Zhou Charter should try his best to save the bad impact caused by Ye Zhichao. In North Korea, a team that has lost public opinion cannot survive.

The headquarters was set up in an abandoned temple outside the village. After the sentry was placed, Zhou Charter gathered Hannagan, Luo Mingfang, Wu Peifu, Naha Wu, Yao Xi, Zhao Xiaoman, Lai Chuanwu and others for a meeting.

At present, there are two major problems that need to be solved.

First, the next direction of action. Zhangzi Camp has got rid of the Japanese army and got rid of the crisis of survival. There are two goals in front of Zhangzi Camp. One is to rush to Pyongyang and join the main force of the Qing army. The other is to go straight to the border between China and North Korea and cross the Yalu River to return home.

If it is for survival, of course, the best choice is to go straight to the Yalu River. In this way, the war has nothing to do with Zhangzi Camp. After returning to China, you should go home and do what you should do.

But Zhou Charter is unwilling!

At this time, Zhou Charter had serious doubts about the history in memory! The First Sino-Japanese War and the tragic outcome of the Qing Dynasty did not seem to be irreversible. The Battle of Chenghuan gave Zhou Charter confidence. If he had a decent army, perhaps he could really change history!

If you want to change history, you have to go to Pyongyang! Go and fight with the Japanese army!

However, Zhou Charter is not sure whether the soldiers who escaped from the dead are willing to go with him.

Fighting is going to kill people!

Speaking of war, this involves the second problem faced by Zhang Ziying.

During the war, a full camp of the Qing army was 500 people, with four outposts under its jurisdiction. In peacetime, a battalion had only about 300 people.

The total number of Zhangzi Camp now has reached 1,300. If it's to run for their lives, 1,300 people will walk together, but it's nothing. However, if you go to Pyongyang to fight, the team must be reorganized according to the wartime system. Otherwise, the team's battlefield command will become a problem.

This is the two major topics of today's meeting - the direction of march and team reorganization.

The weekly charter first raised the first topic. To the expectation of Zhou Charter, everyone present went to Pyongyang with one voice to join the main force of the Qing army and fight a battle with the Japanese.

The officers and soldiers of Zhangzi Camp hate the Japanese, especially the 170 survivors of Gao Shenghao. If they don't kill a few small Japanese, they won't close their eyes!

The first problem was successfully solved, and Zhou Charter raised the second problem - team reorganization.

As soon as Zhou Charter finished talking about the purpose of the meeting, Ha Wu called out: "Do we still need to discuss this? We have more than 1,300 people, organized into four battalions, and you are our commander!"

1,300 people can be organized into at least three battalions. According to the rules of the Hunan Army and the Huai Army, an officer with more than three battalions can report to the court to form an independent army. The commander of the army is called the military commander, and the subordinates are generally called "handsome". The rank of the military commander has also risen, at least a deputy thousand households of the fifth grade. If there are more troops and expand to five battalions, the word "subordinate" can be removed and become a thousand households of the fifth grade. If there are ten battalions, you can even be a second-grade general.

Luo Mingfang shook her head: "I'm afraid this won't work. If you want to become an independent army, you have to report it to the court and the emperor's approval. Otherwise, we will become self-respecting.

"Dog-ass soldiers are self-respecting." Wu Peifu shouted, "Whoever is full and has nothing to do to come to North Korea to support himself? This mother is forced by the Japanese!"

Yao Xi also accompanied him and said carefully, "Master Wu is right. I heard from people in my hometown that supporting soldiers and self-respecting are all things. There are territory, guns and food. We have nothing. We are chased by the Japanese all over the ground, isn't it just to seek a way to live..."

"Bulls!" Wu Peifu shouted, "I followed Brother Zhou to fight against Japan, not for a way to live!" Brother Zhou, I think that's it. You will be our military commander!"

Luo Mingfang was furious: "Without the will of the imperial court, you are going to rebel!"

"Brother Luo, I'm a ghost!" Zhou Charter said angrily, "This is North Korea. The Japanese are chasing us. I want to rebel, but I also rebel against the Japanese!"

Luo Mingfang's words are poor. He didn't turn around for a while. He worked in the Qing army for more than ten years. Before entering the Tianjin Military Academy, he worked in the Huai Army. The official system of the Qing Dynasty became his mindset. Without the grace of the court, he was in chaos!

"Lai Chuanwu, what the hell are you pretending to be mute!" Luo Mingfang shouted at Lai Chuanwu. He saw that the people in this room were all hardcore of Zhou Charter, and only Lai Chuanwu was always luil to Zhou Charter.

Lai Chuanwu has been narrowing his eyes and leaning against the window to bask in the sun, as if he were asleep. His injury is fine. This guy's skin is rough and thick, and he has been blown up with more than a dozen wounds by bombs. Unexpectedly, none of them are fatal injuries, just skin injuries.

Lai Chuanwu opened his eyes lazily and said coldly, "What can I do if I don't pretend to be mute? These guys are fucking Zhou Charter's followers!"

Nahawu jumped up and grabbed Lai Chuanwu's chest: "You son of a bitch, who is a follower!"

Lai Chuanwu sneered: "I didn't expect that the direct descendants of Master Kangxi would also bark behind the buttocks of the Han people."

Ha five suddenly surged up with blood, and he waved his fist and was about to smash down.

Zhao Xiaoman hurriedly grabbed Hawu's arm: "Master, you can't use it, you can't use it. The enemy is in the present, what, the sincerity and the unity."

"You let him smash it!" Lai Chuanwu shouted.

"Zhao Xiaoman, let go of me, I will kill this bastard..."

Zhou Charter scolded, "Sitting down for me! Whoever is disobedient, get out of Zhangzi Camp!"

Naha Wu obediently closed his fist and sat on the ground, but his mouth was not idle: "Damn, don't follow Zhang Ziying if you have the ability!"

Lai Chuanwu sneered and arched his hand to Zhou Charter: "We don't conspire with each other. Say goodbye!"

After saying that, he didn't look back and strode straight out of the small temple, and disappeared for a while.

Everyone was stunned.

Everyone knows that in North Korea, this group of Qing soldiers are not familiar with each other, and the North Koreans are hostile to them. If they fall alone, they will be more or less lucky.

Zhou Charter is anxious. Lai Chuanwu is a stone in a pit, smelly and hard, but this boy is a good hand, his bones are also hard, and he is a man. If something happens, Zhang Ziying will damage a general and can't be worth it!

Zhou Charter hurriedly shouted, "Yao Xi, why are you still stunned? Give him back to me!"

Yao Xi hurriedly chased out.

Naha Five. Disconvinced: "Master, why are you chasing him? This guy just doesn't know what's good or bad, and the Japanese deserve it..."

"Shut your mouth!" Zhou Charter shouted.

Wu Peifu blinked and said, "Brother, I think this Lai Chuanwu is a little bad."

"What's the matter?" Zhou Charter felt awe of heart.

"It's hard to say." Wu Peifu frowned: "When I was in Tianjin, I saw people who were training in the army. They were all cowards. They didn't have the ability to go to war. They were all elites. These guys were old men when they saw the people, and slaves when they saw the officials. Big brother, you were Mr. Qian. According to reason, when those soldiers who were training the army saw you, Like a mouse seeing a cat, how dares to talk back? But this Lai Chuanwu dares to contradict the officer face to face, and he is so bold!"

Luo Mingfang disagreed: "Zhou Charter's attempt to make himself a military commander, which violates the law of the Qing Dynasty. Of course, righteous people should stand up!"

Na Ha Wu sneered: "Master Luo, you are the same. Look at our Qing Dynasty. Are there fewer people who violate the law? How many righteous have you seen standing up? If it weren't for *, who would stand up when he was fucking full and had nothing to do, and he wouldn't know what was going on if he lost his head!"

Hannagan, who had never spoken, suddenly said, "*! This Lai Chuanwu must have *!"
