When it comes to the use of troops on the water, Deng Shichang and the others are experts. They shook their heads and smiled, "Are you denying yourself? When His Majesty was in power, the head of state sent three inland gunboats to patrol the Grand Canal..."

"Don't you know the performance of the gunboats produced by your Chinese? The pure steel gunboats, the eight-eight guns in the hands of the Japanese 6, cannot do anything about the structure of the warship, and it can't do anything except killing a little sailor!"

Jiang Lie and the others are really from the army. They are not very familiar with the background of the navy. They completely forgot the gift from the head of state. The three of them smiled and called out, "Well... we have neglected this. It seems that this variable should be your advantage!"

"Yes! Gunboats are the advantage of the court. At this moment, the rebels attacked the Yongding River defense line. The court could send gunboats to go upstream at any time and shoot gunboats along the Yongding River to bomb the rebels!"

Hum? Speaking of this, the red and blue deducer present was stunned for a moment. No one expected a sudden enlightenment!

No one spoke, but they looked at each other. Gordon stared at the map and didn't raise his head. "Well... this is a variable, a very large variable..."

"After crossing the Lugou Bridge, the Yongding River goes southwest, just outside Tianjin City and the Haihe River. The Grand Canal converges together, and the Bohai Bay enters the sea... These three water systems are understood!"

"The owner of the manor... I ask you, do the inland gunboats of the imperial court have patrols and training on weekdays?" Gordon asked Xiang Lang.

Xiang Lang was stunned, "This... I really haven't noticed this before? Huo Yuanjia, your family is running on the canal foot business, you should know the best!"

Huo Yuanjia has been listening all the time, and he was stunned for today's conversation. Xiang Lang called him for a long time before he woke up, "Ah? Yes... Yes, we can often see..."

"The three gunboats are all made of steel. They burn white coal and are hung with the triceratops of the imperial court... They often patrol the Haihe River and the canals. They are very polite, unlike other sentry ships, they know that they have blackmailed our ship owner's money..."

Gordon nodded, "That's right... I've been to Yongding River for training. The Yongding River has a very large water volume, and there is no problem with passing through gunboats. In other words, as long as the court needs it, Long Sui Ye can send these three warships at any time to support the Yongding River defense line..."

"Maybe, these three warships are sailing on the Yongding River at this moment!"

Gordon was not wrong at all. In the late Qing Dynasty, there were no large and small reservoirs to store water, and the rainfall in the North China Plain was also sufficient at that time.

The Yongding River has always been a big river. You can tell by looking at the length of the Lugou Bridge. You can imagine how wide the river will be during the flood season after more than 200 meters.

The small gunboats produced by the Chinese are designed for inland rivers, and there is no problem in running such waters. As long as three gunboats appear on the Yongding River, they will be three large and unsinkable turrets. The main guns of warships are much more powerful than field guns.

"Can the variables that we can all deduce, can the Japanese Six not deduce? So since he deduces, why should he attack Yongding River this afternoon?"

Gordon said quietly, "There are airship troops in the sky, gunboats patrolling on the river surface, and there are a large number of permanent fortifications by Li Tuoxiu on the opposite side of the river... Could he be seeking death!"

"Feeling attack!" The people from the red and blue deducing party collectively exclaimed, "Feeling attack! Damn... The Japanese Six is ​​playing ghost again! He is feinting attacking Yongding River, and the target is definitely something else!"

The conspiracy was broken in half, and everyone guessed that this was the feint attack of the Japanese 6, but they could not guess where the real attack direction was!

This feeling of seeing through half of the conspiracy is actually even more terrifying. Everyone present has goose bumps!

Even the brave martial arts heroes, facing such a secret battle between thousands of troops, could not help but be amazed by a magical strategy that could determine the life and death of tens of thousands of people with just one strategy.

"Damn, I would rather fight tigers than fight with these ghost-playing people! How do these exquisite orifices grow? "

"That's right... This kind of person is reincarnated into the world and is here to engage in conspiracy. He can't afford to offend him, he can't afford to offend him!"

Deng Shichang immediately said to Xiang Lang, "Is there any telegraph machine... I want to send a message to the capital immediately! I remind Master Long live to be careful..."

Of course, the telegraph machine can be used casually, but is it enough to just remind? You can see that the Japanese Six is ​​a feint attack, so what is the real attack direction?

When generating electricity to the court, you cannot just ask questions and not come up with solutions!

Everyone's head was sweating, and Ma Hui, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke, "I... I'm just guessing! Will this Japanese Six target Tianjin Wei!"

"We started feint attack this afternoon, and we sent troops from Tangshan to transport Hunchun's troops to the evening... But it's not right. We also have an intelligence network in Tianjin, and we didn't find any movement to mobilize the rebels on a large scale!"

"The rebels closest to Tianjin are west of Wangqingtuo... It's still far away!"

Jiang Lie punched the table with a bang, "Check! You must check. The Japanese Liu worked hard for so many years and must have their own tricks!"

"It is definitely not a problem to be able to fight such a high-level battle in Zhuozhou, secretly transporting troops to Tianjin! Our intelligence agencies may not be omnipotent!"

"Look at it again, are there any other main attacker possible?"

It was really a sudden ghost in the evening. After a good dinner, a huge conspiracy suddenly came out. These people in the army subconsciously wanted to deduce the truth of the facts.

What is the truth? In fact, the truth lies with the British!

Ma Hui was not wrong at all. At this moment, Ronglu and Yisha, two generals of the sixth Japanese, each brought 10,000 elite troops to station troops in Wangqingtuo.

This is for all intelligence agencies to show to the outside world. These 20,000 people are elites raised by the Japanese in their sixties, but they are wearing the most ragged clothes and holding a big sword and a spear in their hands.

The real weapons were hidden in boxes and straw piles. In order to confuse intelligence personnel from all sides, they began to arrest civilians and women when they arrived at the place. After eating, drinking and having fun, they gave people the impression of a group of refugees and riots.

And to the south of Yangcun Railway Station north of Wangqingtuo, there is a new force hidden secretly by British merchants!

British foreign merchants purchased a lot of land in Yangcun and built a large warehouse to store some cheap and huge goods.

Especially during this famine, the British cleared their foreign goods and all warehouses in the north were filled with food they had purchased cheaply.

The illegitimate son of the Japanese Sixth, Zaiwang and the rebellious commander of Xishan Camp, Nastu, were lurking in the warehouse area with three thousand elite troops in the direct line.

The warehouse is very big and the British have many privileges. These three thousand ghosts have been lurking for six hours!

"Crown Prince... we have let go of a military line. When will we start?"

Zaitu glanced at his subordinates and said, "Shut up, I've said no to call me the prince!"

"Wait patiently, Hunchun's special train is what we want to handle... Big Fish!"
