Chapter 184 North-South Attack

At dawn, the Dingyuan ship arrived at Weihaiwei.

The defenders of Weihaiwei Fort did not expect at all that the Dingyuan ship had changed its owner. After handing over the customs defense, Dingyuan was put into the military port.

Ding Ruchang is the local snake of Weihaiwei and knows the internal situation of the military port. According to Ding Ruchang's guidance, Feng Guozhang formulated a detailed and safe action plan in advance. As soon as he landed, Feng Guozhang commanded the troops to disembark and quickly control all the forts and armory, torpedo battalions, radio stations and other key departments around Weihaiwei.

Accompanied by Feng Guozhang, Ding Ruchang led a battalion of troops to Liugong Island, controlled the Admiral of the Beiyang Marine Division, and then summoned all the officers and soldiers of the Beiyang Marine Division to the Admiral's office in the name of the Admiral.

The officers and soldiers of the Beiyang Marine Division were stunned when they saw the old officer, and then knelt down at Ding Ruchang's feet to show their obedience. Ding Ruchang quickly cut the chaos, tied up all the generals later transferred by the court, locked them in the warehouse behind, and then announced that the Beiyang Marine Division was ordered by Zhou Charter, the Premier and Minister of the government, to go to Taiwan to fight against the Japanese army!

The Prime Minister is just a false title and has no power to transfer troops at all. Ding Ruchang takes chicken feathers as an arrow, and the officers and soldiers know that this is the opposite!

The officers and soldiers of the Beiyang Marine Division were originally dissatisfied with the court, and after the Battle of Miao Island, the Beiyang Marine Division's fear of the Japanese fleet also greatly weakened. They heard that they would cooperate with Zhang Jun to go to Taiwan to fight against the Japanese army. They were extremely excited and said that they would obey the old officer's command.

It didn't take long, and the overall situation of Weihaiwei has been decided. The Beiyang Marine Division has more than 10 cruisers, more than 20 gunboats and 12 torpedo boats. After the First Sino-Japanese War, in addition to the sunken and injured warships, more than 30 warships were intact, which is still a daunting and powerful maritime force.

At Ding Ruchang's order, all the officers and soldiers left the admiral's office and went to their respective warships to prepare for the journey.

Ding Ruchang and Feng Guozhang returned to the Dingyuan ship. At this time, the vanguard fleet of the Beiyang Marine Division and three cruisers had sailed out of the waterway. Feng Guozhang then ordered the officers and soldiers of the 5th Division of Zhangjun to board the three gunboats and follow Dingyuan.

Ding Ruchang and Feng Guozhang came to the cabin and asked Zhao Qiaoer to beg.

After Zhao Qiaoer and his entourage boarded Dingyuan, Ding Ruchang gave the admiral's bedroom to Zhao Qiaoer as a sign of respect, which was the largest bedroom on the ship, but Zhao Qiaoer let the old lady of the Qin family and the maid Xiaocui live in the admiral's bedroom. He, Liu Yingshu and Zhao Han squeezed into a bedroom next to him.

Zhao Qiaoer saw Ding Ruchang and Feng Guozhang and hurriedly got up to greet them.

Ding Ruchang said, "Mrs. Zhao, the overall situation of Weihaiwei has been decided, and all the officers and soldiers of the Beiyang Marine Division are willing to follow the commander-in-cher, but please also ask Mrs. Zhao to make it clear where to go to Taiwan? Is it Anping or Westport?

Zhao Qiaoer also couldn't figure out about the march and war, so she had to turn to Zhao Han: "Sister, what did the charter tell you when you left Taiwan?"

Zhao Han also looked confused: "When I came, he didn't say where the Beiyang sailors were going?"

Ding Ruchang muttered, "This is not easy to do. If there is no place to settle in such a large fleet as the Beiyang Marine Division, it will be passive."

Feng Guozhang nodded: "That's right, why don't you ask a person if the money is expensive? He should know the situation in Taiwan.

Speaking of Cao Cao and Cao Cao arrived, I saw Qian Yougui standing at the door of the bedroom and arched his hand and said, "Lord Ding, Master Feng, there are people from Taiwan!"

A little girl with flowers flashed behind Qian Yougui. The little girl was as beautiful as a fairy, smiling and offering gifts to Zhao Qiaoer and Liu Yingshu. Next to the little girl is a village woman.

"Jin Shu!" Zhao Qiaoer shouted. Standing at the door, not anyone else. One is Jin Shu, and the other is Cuihua, a female tiger of Yao Xi's family.

"Good for Sister Zhao, Hello, Sister Liu, and," Jin Shu frowned: "Good for Sister Zhao Han."

"Shua, I heard that I went to see your godfather Nie Shishi. How did you get here?" Zhao Qiaoer asked.

These days, Qian Yougui has already told Zhao Qiaoer that Zhou Charter was in Bailu Village, had sex with peach blossoms, and married a female chief in Alishan. Jin Shu left Taiwan in anger and vowed never to be Taiwan again. Zhao Qiaoer also cried and laughed about this matter. Zhou Charter acted absurdly, and Jin Shu left with anger, which is also reasonable. You know, if it hadn't been for God's fault, Jin Shu would have been Zhou Charter's wife. Now, Jin Shu hasn't gone through the door, and Zhou Charter has married another room.

"Sister Zhao, I'd better get to talk about business first." Jin Shu's face was solemn. She faced Ding Ruchang and Feng Guozhang, took out a letter from her sleeves and said, "Army Zhou has an order!"

Feng Guozhang and Jin Shu have known each other for a while and know Jin Shu's position in Zhou Charter's mind. Jin Shu conveyed Zhou's order. Feng Guozhang did not dare to neglect and bow down to obey his orders. Although Ding Ruchang did not know Jin Shu, he saw Feng Guozhang's rules and knew that Jin Shu was not small, and he also followed Feng Guozhang.

"Army Zhou, please ask Lord Ding to send a fleet to escort Feng Guozhang's Fifth Division to land in Incheon!"

"Incheon!" Feng Guozhang and Ding Ruchang were shocked.

"Not bad! Incheon!" Jin Shu said, "Park Yonglie's 4th Division has been secretly transferred to the Linjin River. Once the 5th Division arrives in Incheon, the 4th Division will break through the Linjin River, attack Seoul with the 5th Division in the north and south, completely expel the Japanese army in Seoul, and restore North Korea! In the name of the Prime Minister, Commander Zhou appointed Park Yonglie as the governor of North Korea and the commander of the Fourth Division, Feng Guozhang as the commander of the Fourth Division in Seoul, and the 4th and 5th Divisions of the Zhang Army to form the North Korean Front Army. Park Yonglie is also the commander of the North Korean Front Army, and is fully responsible for North Korea's war and civil affairs!"

Feng Guozhang laughed: "Big brother is going to restore North Korea in World War I while the Japanese army's attention is all in Taiwan! OK! OK! Big brother is going to make the Japanese fly!"

Ding Ruchang said carefully: "Master Feng, although Chief Zhou is the prime minister, he can't appoint a governor by himself. This kind of thing has always been decided by the emperor."

Feng Guozhang smiled and said, "Lord Ding, are we still officials of the court?"

"Damn it, I'm already reversed!" Ding Ruchang suddenly woke up and bowed his head to Jin Shu and said, "Please rest assured that the Beiyang Marine Division will send two cruisers, three gunboats and three transport ships to transport Feng's headquarters to Incheon. I, Ding Ruchang, personally led the main force of the Beiyang Marine Division to... Anping or Xigang? Please ask Miss Jin to show it.

Jin Shu smiled and said, "Lord Ding, you're welcome. Chief Zhou's meaning is neither Anping nor Xigang, but Penghu! Cai Ting led Zhenyuan and the Marine Brigade to meet Lord Ding in Penghu!"

Ding Ruchang pondered a little and then laughed: "High! It's really high! After capturing Penghu, the Japanese completely lost Taiwan!"

To take Taiwan, you must first take Penghu, which is a tried-and-tested experience in Taiwan's history! Zhou Charter wants to use this experience in reverse and expel the Japanese army in Taiwan. He must first expel the Japanese army in Penghu!

After occupying Penghu, Taiwan was completely separated from Japan. Even if Japan had thousands of troops, it could not reach Taiwan. At that time, Zhou Charter can calmly destroy Naimu Xidian!

Even, the Zhou Charter is very likely to use Penghu as a springboard to threaten Japan's mainland Okinawa!

In the eyes of Zhou Charter, Okinawa is not the mainland of Japan. It was originally the Ryukyu Kingdom. Like Korea, it is a vassal state of the Qing Dynasty!

Since you can take down North Korea, why can't you take down Ryukyu!

Zhou Charter has such a big appetite that he wants everything from North Korea and Penghu to Taiwan!

It is not enough to occupy Taiwan. Zhou Charter is killing two birds with one stone. At the same time, he launched an attack in Taiwan and North Korea and captured two major bases in the first battle. This not only makes the Japanese unable to look at each other, but also forms a momentum of attacking the Qing Dynasty in both the north and south!

Zhou Charter should be the king of Taiwan and the king of North Korea!

He wants the Empress Dowager Cixi to taste the feeling of being clamped!

Ding Ruchang bowed to Jin Shu and said, "Miss Jin, I'm going to deploy the fleet according to the order of Army Chief Zhou."

Ding Ruchang has seen that Jin Shu, a fairy-like little girl, is not ordinary.

Feng Guozhang and Ding Ruchang withdrew from the bedroom and went to prepare.

When there was no man in the cabin, Zhao Qiaoer said softly, "Shua, I heard that you are angry with the charter?"

Jin Shu blushed: "What idleness did I give him?"

Cuihua said rudely, "Sister-in-law, we Jin Shu are so generous. How can we be as petty as some women that make Brother Zhou drop a finger!"

Zhao Qiaoer looked back at Zhao Han. Just because Zhao Han hugged Zhao Qiaoer, Zhou Charter cut off one of his fingers.

So, Jin Shu frowned when she saw Zhao Han.

Jin Shu was not afraid of being wronged, but afraid that Zhou Charter would be wronged. Zhou Charter dropped a finger, and Jin Shu was more distressed than anyone else.

Zhao Han grew up in the United Kingdom. His mind is novel and his mind is full of women's liberation. Looking at Zhao Qiaoer and Jin Shu, they all regard Zhou Charter as a treasure. She also admits that Zhou Charter is a treasure, but Zhao Han is still difficult to understand that a man marries several wives.

Zhao said coldly, "Sister Zhao, in this case, I don't bother to take care of your business. Say goodbye!"

Zhao Han is also a fierce woman. Without saying a word, she pulled out of the bedroom. Zhao Qiaoer chased her to the door and hurriedly apologize to Zhao Han. Zhao Han sighed, "Sister Qiaoer, in fact, this time I came to Beijing to save you, and also wanted to take the opportunity to leave Taiwan."

"Why is this?" Zhao Qiaoer asked.

Zhao Han said, "Zhou Charter is a man, but he is different from us."

Zhao Qiaoer hurriedly said, "Sister, I know that you don't like a man with having several wives..."

"You are used to it. What's the use if I can't get used to it!" Zhao Han smiled and said, "I said that I was different from Zhou Charter Zhi, not because of this."
