Chapter 164: Dismissal

Wei Jichen held a banquet in the official office to welcome Song Qing and cleanse him from the dust. Everyone drank and drank, and the host and guest enjoyed themselves for a while.

In fact, Wei Jichen did not regard the position of the coach as important as Song Qing thought. He just had a thought in his heart, that is, to capture Fuzhou and Jinzhou within a month. Song Qing's arrival was making things difficult for him. This idea becomes possible.

After capturing these two places, the main mission is completed, and 100,000 merit points can be obtained. It is not very important whether you are the coach. As long as you play an indispensable role in the process of capturing, the system will consider it The main task is completed.

Therefore, Wei Jichen also had a friendly attitude towards Song Qing's arrival. After all, Song Qing was many times more senior than him. When others were fighting, he was not even born yet. With Song Qing as the main one, there was nothing to lose. .

Wei Jichen tried his best to please him, and Song Qing also wanted to make friends with him.

Song Qing had been marching and fighting for many years, and from time to time he told some interesting stories about the suppression of the war, and everyone listened with interest.

Wei Jichen came from a later generation and had extraordinary knowledge. When he talked about some secret histories of Western countries, the generals were dumbfounded. Even Song Qing was curious and asked questions from time to time.

The two of them almost became the center of attention of everyone present, and the atmosphere at the banquet was very warm.

Everyone drank until their eyes were dim, and it was so refreshing that they made up for the New Year.

Seeing that everyone was almost drunk, Song Qing stood up and said with a smile: "I am old after all. I can't compare with you young people. I have been drinking a lot tonight and I am tired from many days of marching, so I will go down and rest first." ”

Everyone quickly got up to see them off. Wei Jichen had already prepared a sleeping room for Song Qing and others. At this moment, he gave an order and several soldiers led him to the west wing.

After everyone chatted for a while, they slowly dispersed.

Wei Jichen returned to his room, drank a few cups of tea to relieve his hangover, and then prepared to visit Song Qing in private.

I had thought that before I could leave, there was a crisp knock on the door.

Wei Jichen opened the door and saw that it was Song Qing who had just left. He saw that Song Qing had put on an ordinary robe. If it weren't for his bright eyes, he would have looked like an ordinary old man with white hair exposed.

Song Qing stood outside the door with a smile, still a little drunk, and behind him were several of his soldiers.

Wei Jichen hurriedly invited him in and said with shame: "For reasons and reasons, it was junior who should have gone to visit Song Shuai, but unexpectedly Song Shuai came to this junior first. I am really ashamed."

Song Qing saw the teacup on the table, smiled and joked: "It seems that Zijie's skills are not strong enough. I have been immersed in the sea of ​​wine for many years, and I have already developed the ability to drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, so I won't wait until you, Zijie, wake up." , I came to visit first.”

The two sat down according to the host and guest, and a soldier came forward to help Song Qing pour tea.

Song Qing took a gentle sip, glanced at the soldier with a smile, and then said, "I don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. I have something important I want to say to you, Zijie."

Wei Jichen raised his hand, and the soldier resigned. After closing the door, only Song Qing and Wei Jichen were left in the room.

"Please just tell me what Commander Song has ordered." Wei Jichen guessed that he would discuss the coach's issue with him.

Unexpectedly, Song Qing said with a serious face: "Zijie, although you and I have not been together for long, I have long been famous. After meeting you, a young talent, today, I feel that you are a straightforward man." , so I will come directly to you if you have something to do.”

Wei Jichen saw that he was speaking solemnly and couldn't help but asked curiously: "Song Shuai is too unfair to reward, this matter..."

Song Qing took out a telegram from his arms, put it gently into Wei Jichen's hand, and said seriously: "This is the telegram I received from the military aircraft not long ago."

When Wei Jichen picked it up and looked at it, he saw it read: Former Military Affairs Assistant Wei Jichen killed innocent people indiscriminately and showed contempt for the king's law. He is now dismissed from his post and is staying in the camp to see the consequences.

What follows is about Wei Jichen's murder of the assistant leader.

Being dismissed from his post and staying in the camp means that he was dismissed from his official position as Assistant Military Affairs Officer, but he can continue to lead the Wei army in combat.

For example, Xu Daobang was dismissed from his post by the imperial court because of the loss of Lushun and other places, but now he is also staying in the camp to serve.

However, he had been commended by the court a few days ago. Now why did the trend of the court change? When Wei Jichen saw that the signature below was Sun Yuwen, the Minister of Military Aircraft, he understood a little.

Song Qing thought that Wei Jichen was young and didn't know much about the various forces in the DPRK. Seeing him looking at the telegram with a normal expression, he couldn't help but remind him: "Master Sun is now a famous person in front of Lafayette."

Wei Jichen glanced at Song Qing gratefully and said seriously: "I would also like to thank Commander Song for telling the truth."

Wei Jichen was sincerely grateful. Song Qing could have simply not produced this telegram, or crossed out Sun Yuwen's name, so that he could figure out the reason. Now with this name, many facts can be inferred.

Song Qing smiled and said: "This is such a small matter, it's nothing to mention. I don't agree with this telegram myself. It is estimated that there are some powerful people in the leader's family, and then brought the matter to the Military Aircraft Department, so the Military Aircraft Department will Such an order was given."

Wei Jichen nodded in agreement, but in his heart he disagreed. He had set up so many attacks. If the crime of indiscriminate killing of innocent people was to be investigated in depth, it was just as the public said. Give this order.

When did he come into the eyes of this old Buddha? Wei Jichen felt a little depressed. Being in Liaodong, it was difficult to understand some of the situation in the capital.

It seems that it is necessary for me to establish an intelligence network in the capital to collect some useful things for myself and to do activities for myself. Otherwise, I would be too passive here.

In the blink of an eye, Wei Jichen's thoughts were changing, and he remembered that he had just made a small fortune, and he could make it, but he had not yet thought of this candidate.

My dear, there will be more after this chapter^.^,

Wei Jichen's expression didn't change at all. Seeing Song Qing's expression of feeling sorry for him, he couldn't help but throw an observation skill at him. After a green light, the friendship level showed 62. It seemed that Admiral Song was not a man of words and a sword.

Wei Jichen sent the telegram back to Song Qing and said with a relaxed face: "Life is like the tide in the sea, there are low tides and high tides. The boy was in too much limelight some time ago, and now he is avoiding the limelight. In the future, I, Wei Zijun, will invite Song Qing Shuai can take more care of me.”

Seeing that Wei Jichen was already so stable at his age, Song Qing couldn't help but feel relieved. He stroked his beard and said with a smile: "In the future, if Zijie is going to help me a lot, I'll let you and I work hard together." The Japanese rushed back to the sea."

"Since Commander Song has such pride, I am willing to be a pawn and vanguard to fight the Japanese. I have never been shy." Wei Jichen said with the same pride.

Never hesitate to fight against Japanese invaders. In the Qing Dynasty, you, Wei Jichen, are the only ones who dare to say this. Song Qing squinted his eyes and praised in his heart.

"Commander Song, now that your army has arrived, I don't know when to launch a counterattack. The situation on the battlefield in Shandong is not optimistic." Wei Jichen raised his eyebrows and said helplessly.

In terms of grand strategy, the Japanese have steadily suppressed China. When the Qing court thought that Japan only wanted to obtain North Korea, Japan had already thought about invading China. When the Qing court thought that Japan would march straight in from the Yalu River, it concentrated a large number of troops. At this time, Little Japan landed from Dalian Bay again, and the two groups attacked at the same time.

When the Qing court thought that Little Japan was going to fight to the death on the Liaodong battlefield, Little Japan took a unique approach and opened up a second battlefield to continue to maintain pressure on the Zhili region.

This is the gap between the top management of China and Japan.

When Song Qing saw Wei Jichen talking about the Shandong battlefield, he became a little sad. He shook his head helplessly and said: "This Japanese is really unexpected and attacked me unprepared."

Wei Jichen raised his eyebrows and said resonantly: "This is also our opportunity. The Japanese have massively increased their troops in Shandong, and the battlefield in Liaodong has begun to adopt a conservative strategy, switching from offense to defense. As long as we continue to win in Liaodong, we can Indirectly support Shandong's anti-Japanese campaign, preventing the Japanese from attacking Shandong with all their strength."

"It's a pity that the Beiyang Fleet has suffered heavy losses and is hiding in the harbor and dare not come out. Otherwise, it can quickly transport troops from the Liaodong battlefield to support the Shandong Peninsula. Now it seems that Zhongtang gave up sea control before, which was really a mistake." Song Qing saw that Wei Jichen was so insightful that he even revealed his views on the Sino-Japanese War these days.

Wei Jichen did not expect Song Qing to be so knowledgeable, so he smiled awkwardly. Li Hongzhang was his immediate boss. Song Qing could say this, but Wei Jichen could not join him in blaming Li Hongzhang.

"By the way, Commander Song, a large part of the reason why the boy was able to win two victories before was because he followed the Japanese practice of combining artillery teams. Please give Commander Song more consideration now." Wei Jichen saw Song Qing was not the kind of conservative general, so he couldn't help but say something.

Wei Jichen just sneaked into the system and found that only his own Wei Zijun was left in the Army system. The Ren Zijun and Xi Zijun had all disappeared and were no longer under his control. The following battles would not produce any merit for him. value.

If the artillery team was dismantled and returned to the armies, it would not only be useless for the subsequent battles, but also reduce the number of troops that could generate merit points for him. Therefore, Wei Jichen hoped that Song Qing could continue to entrust the artillery team to his management.

When Song Qing heard what Wei Jichen said, he couldn't help but become interested. He asked carefully about the details of the two previous battles. When he heard that Wei Jichen had planted explosives on the river and then used cannons to bombard him, which caused a big explosion, he couldn't help praising him. .

"By doing this, Zijie can combine powerful firepower and use it as a weapon to attack difficulties. It is indeed good. But if this artillery team is defeated by the Japanese, wouldn't our losses be even more heavy?" Song Qing agreed. , and a little worried.

"Commander Song, please rest assured. Our artillery positions are generally not placed behind the first line of defense of the troops, but are placed in other more concealed and farther places. Besides, the boy Wei Zijun is not a vegetarian. Unless the battle is fought to the last moment, The soldiers have to fight, otherwise I will keep the artillery position intact." Wei Jichen saw that Song Qing had been persuaded by him and struck while the iron was hot to get the artillery into his hands.

"In this case, I will trust you for once, and I will hand over the artillery team in my army to your leadership." Song Qing thought for a while and said with a serious face.

The reason why Song Qing did this was that, firstly, Wei Jichen was not a person who gained fame in vain, and his military exploits were truly earned. Second, after Wei Jichen heard that he was dismissed from his post, he expressed his willingness to obey his commander-in-chief without saying a word. Song Qing naturally reciprocated the favor.

Wei Jichen was even more happy when he heard this.
