Chapter 044 Hero of the End
Park Yonglie said: "Liu Shengxiu and Wu Peifu made an agreement. Wu Peifu led the first regiment to surrender to the Qing army, and the court no longer made it difficult for him. But he has a condition that he must see the old lady and sister-in-law. If the old lady and sister-in-law have something wrong, even if they lose a hair, Wu Peifu will fight with the Qing army to the end! There are 50,000 in the Qing army and only 2,000 in Wu Peifu's hand. If there is a fight, the lives of these two thousand brothers will not be saved. The old lady, sister-in-law, and these two thousand brothers are all old brothers who have died following the eldest brother. Even if you think about your brothers, you should live well. Otherwise, the eldest brother is under Huangquan and can't close his eyes.
Liu Yingshu hurriedly advised, "Sister Zhao, old lady, Chief Park is right. We can't die like this for the lives of our brothers."
Cui Daoyi also advised: "It's easy for people to die, but it's not easy to live!" If Master Zhou encounters something wrong, if the old lady and the young lady also follow him, the brothers Zhang Jun will be distracted. If they want to avenge Master Zhou, I'm afraid they will have no backbone.
What does "Liu Shengxiu mean?" Zhao Qiaoer asked.
Park Yonglie continued: "Liu Shengxiu's intention is to invite the old lady and sister-in-law to Pingcheng and Wu Peifu's army. Old lady, sister-in-law, Cui Daochang is right. If you are alive, we Zhangjun's old brothers have the backbone. In the future, once the time is ripe, we will raise the banner of Zhangjun again to avenge our eldest brother! Sister-in-law, you will always be the wife in our mind!"
Zhao Qiaoer asked, "Wu Peifu surrendered to the Qing army. What should you do?"
Park Yonglie smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, I, Park Yonglie, am not from the Qing Dynasty. Of course, I will not surrender to the Qing army. As for the Restoration Army, it was a group of rabble, and behind it was still his mother Russian. Min Ziying was not a good thing, and North Korea was defeated in her hands. I took the team and occupied the mountain as the king. I expected that no one could do anything to me in North Korea!"
Zhao Qiaoer said, "Inc. Park, Wu Peifu surrendered to the Qing army in order to save Zhang Jun's old brothers. I think you might as well surrender to the Guangfu army. For the time being, your fourth regiment is all Koreans. They should not embarrascate you. Otherwise, the brothers of the fourth regiment will still die in vain."
"However, I can't stand under the same roof as Zheng Shixiong. Damn, I can't wait to skin him!"
"A man can bend and stretch!" Zhao Qiaoer said, "Maybe one day, you have the final say in this city of Pyongyang!"
Cui Daoyi said, "What Mrs. Zhao said is reasonable. Min Ziying has always been unpopular. North Korean people will not follow her. Head Park can stand firm in Pyongyang and slowly look for opportunities.
Park Yonglie suddenly woke up: "I still have more than a thousand horses in my hand, and I'm not a vegetarian. Min Ziying dare not do anything to me. Maybe one day, I will empty her. Sister-in-law, you go to Pingcheng immediately and tell Wu Peifu that I, Park Yonglie and he will always be brothers. Once the time is ripe, as long as he calls, my group will be his group!"
Liu Yingshu repeatedly cheered. Her idea was very simple. As a woman, she just wanted to find a way to live in these troubled times. As long as Mrs. Qin and Zhao Qiaoer are no longer looking for life, she can follow them to have a way to live.
Qin took Jin Shu's little hand and said softly, "Shu'er, there are soldiers everywhere. You can also follow us to Pingcheng."
Zhao Qiaoer also advised: "Suer, Min Ziying will definitely send someone to arrest you. It's very inconvenient for you to stay here alone. In the future, we will be sisters."
Jin Shu shook her head: "Thank you, Sister Zhao. I won't stay here or go to Pingcheng."
"Then where are you going?"
Jin Shu bowed her head and said, "I'm going to Lushun!"
"Lushun!" Everyone was shocked.
The Japanese attacked the Golden Mountain Fort, and Zhou Charter became the world of the Japanese. Even thousands of troops and horses, it is difficult to get close to Lushun. Jin Shu is a weak woman who wants to go to Lushun alone, which is to seek her own death.
Zhao Qiaoer advised, "Shua, my sister didn't blame you for the charter."
Jin Shu smiled miserably: "Sister Zhao, I know that you are all good people. I went to Lushun to find out the whereabouts of the charter. Sister Zhao, in any case, the charter is dead or alive. There must be a letter of approval if he... Jin Shu gritted her teeth and said, "Sister Zhao, if he is really gone, I will bring him back to your side!"
Park Yonglie patted his forehead and said, "Jin Shu is right. How can we easily believe the words of the Qing army? In any case, we should see what is believing. It is indeed necessary to send someone to Lushun, but it is not appropriate for Jin Shu to go. I will send another powerful person to Lushun.
Jin Shu was extremely determined: "At the beginning, Charter risked his life to take my father's remains out of Seoul and give them to my mother, Sister Zhao. I will take Zhou Charter out of Lushun and give it to you, whether he is dead or alive!
Jin Shu did not want to follow Zhao Qiaoer to Pingcheng. She didn't even want to stay in North Korea, which broke her heart. The only place in the world attracted her was Lushun, because Zhou Charter was there, even if it was a sea of knives and fire!
There is a sigh in the room. This girl is affectionate and righteous!
"Can you do it alone?" Park Yonglie asked, "Why don't I send a company with you?"
Jin Shu shook her head: "Group Chief Park is in a dangerous place and surrounded by strong enemies. It is the time to employ people and cannot disperse his power. Moreover, if you go to Lushun, you can only sneak in quietly, but it is inconvenient if there are too many people. At the beginning, when Charter and I went to Seoul, it was only the two of us..." Jin Shu blushed. At that time, she and Zhou Charter sneaked into Seoul. They were in danger and could be killed at any time. However, that was her best memory. With Zhou Charter, she was not afraid of anything!
Jin Shu shouted secretly in her heart: Brother Zhou, Shu'er has grown up and become a brave girl!
......
On March 3, 1895, the second year of the lunar calendar, in the early morning, the golden mountain fort.
The sun casts a glow all over the sky from the sea level in the east, reflecting the golden mountain into blood red.
A sun flag fluttered on the chest wall of the fort, and the Japanese army has attacked the fort.
The sound of Japanese naval guns gradually subsided. Nine warships lined up on the sea, with their guns aimed at the Golden Mountain, but no longer spit out flames. In order to avoid accidental injury, the Japanese ship no longer fired shells.
However, the gunfire on the fort still kept ringing.
Shenwei Guangchen stood at the bow of a small gunboat and looked at the golden mountain in the glow, speechless.
He had just received the order of the base camp and immediately left Lushun to Hiroshima to report to the Guards Division.
The Guards Division has gathered in Hiroshima and is ready to go to Taiwan.
The Qing Dynasty has announced its abandonment of Taiwan, and the Taiwan governor has been ordered to lead local administrative officials and troops stationed in the Qing Dynasty to return to the mainland. However, Taiwan's indigenous people and the Black Flag Army jointly issued a public declaration of independence, refusing to recognize the agreement between the Qing Dynasty and Japan on the cession of Taiwan and refusing to allow Japanese administrative officials to land on the island. Japanese officials have been expelled and even killed.
The tough Taiwanese indigenous people formed their own army. Their equipment is very inferior, and most of them use big knives and spears. However, they take advantage of Taiwan's mountains and forests to guard them according to danger and do not accept education.
Japan decided to conquer Taiwan by force!
In view of the outstanding performance and ability of Guangchen Shenwei during the QingJapanese War, he was appointed as the intelligence director and chief of staff of the Guards Division in Taiwan. At the same time, he was promoted to the rank of major general.
In the history of the Japanese army, he was the first intelligence officer to be promoted to general. This is not only because of his intelligence ability, but also because Japan attaches great importance to Taiwan.
Taiwan has an extremely important strategic position. With Taiwan, Japan can not only control the Strait of Malacca, which has an extremely important strategic position, but also curb the West's access to Asia. Moreover, through the Taiwan Strait, Japan's forces can directly reach the South China Sea and Southeast Asia and obtain rich strategic resources in Southeast Asia, including rubber. , iron ore and coal burning.
At the same time, after Japan occupied Taiwan, it was equivalent to inserting a knife in the back of the Qing Dynasty! Force directly pushed the Fujian and Liangguang regions of the Qing Dynasty. This area is not only the land of money and food of the Qing Dynasty, but more importantly, it is a springboard for the infiltration of the Western powers into the Qing Dynasty. Japan can rely on Taiwan to curb the Western infiltration of the Qing Dynasty and threaten the sphere of influence of Britain and France in the Yangtze River basin, thus obtaining The confidence to challenge the Western powers.
Because of this, Japan would rather give up Liaodong.
Regarding the appointment of the base camp, Shenwei Guangchen's mind is complicated.
This appointment is undoubtedly the affirmation and trust of the base camp, which is the supreme glory of a soldier.
However, the heart of Shenwei Guangchen is a little lost.
In the eight-month war, his opponent was not the Qing Dynasty, but one person.
Shenwei Guangchen's judgment is not correct and not sharp. However, he always loses to this man!
For Japan, the war to this extent is an acceptable result. And for himself, he failed!
Now, his opponent is besieged on the Golden Mountain and trapped in Chuge on all sides. Shenwei Guangchen believes that it won't be long for that that that person will cry like the king of Chu.
This battle is indeed very similar to the battle of the Chinese people 2,000 years ago.
In the context of the Chinese, the battle is the end of a hero. This defeated hero is actually the last winner, because his death has conquered the hearts of people in this country for 2,000 years!
With this, Kamio Mitsumi thinks he is a loser!
The gunboat sounded a whistle, and the bow slowly deflected eastward. This gunboat was specially designed to pick him up and has left the battle sequence in advance.
Shenwei Guangchen looked at the Golden Mountain, which was no longer a fort. After eight consecutive days of bombardment, the fort was blown up into a pile of rubble.
From time to time, Zhang soldiers in gray military uniforms flashed in the rubble, but they were soon shot down, and they were making a final resistance.
At the last moment when the bow of the ship deviated from the direction of the Golden Mountain, Shenwei minister stood upright and raised his hand to salute a standard military salute to the Golden Mountain.
The sailors around hurriedly followed Shenwei Guangchen to salute the Golden Mountain.
Shenwei Guangchen smiled secretly. These sailors thought he was saluteing the Japanese army on the mountain. Unexpectedly, he was saluting his enemy.
The gunboat drove full of horsepower and sailed towards the sea.
Soon, the Golden Mountain disappeared from the vision of Shenwei Guangchen.
