When Makarov heard the chief of staff say that the Japanese side was responsible for the failure of this operation, he also felt inappropriate, so Makarov said: "Okay, General Dongxiang is right, now is indeed not the time to discuss responsibility."

As soon as Makarov said this, everyone stopped arguing and looked at him. Makarov continued: "The most important thing now is to determine whether the information we have received is accurate. , our future actions cannot be based on them.”

The navigator said: "Although I don't think my navigation is wrong, it's hard for me to believe that the information we got was false. The information was stolen from the headquarters of the Chinese army by our allies. If this is a Chinese If you deliberately give us false information, then the Chinese must know who the hidden agent is in advance, and also know his law of action, the Chinese absolutely do not have such skills.”

As soon as the long sailing voice finished speaking, everyone nodded their heads. Deep in their hearts, they thought that the Chinese were trash, how could they possibly be able to catch their agents!But what they didn't expect was that their opponent was Lin Yuan, who had the most powerful spy technology.

Makarov said: "We should still stick to the method of attacking from both sides. Since there are mines in the river, we will send minesweepers to clear the mines in the river. According to intelligence, many artillery pieces in the forts on both sides of the river cannot be used. Don't worry about them either."

The chief of staff said: "But we don't have special minesweeping boats in our fleet, and large cruisers and battleships cannot enter the river. Although small destroyers can enter the river, they are still unable to perform minesweeping missions."

Dongxiang Heihachiro said: "Don't worry about this, we can send minesweepers from Incheon."

Makarov said: "Then we have decided like this. We will return to the temporary anchorage first. When the minesweeper arrives, we will attack Dagukou."

The Japanese and Russian fleets chose Laizhou Bay as their temporary anchorage, which is very close to Tianjin. They set sail and left quickly. Luo Rongguang at Dagukou heard the news and asked Lin Yuan excitedly: "Shuai Lin, are they retreating?" ?”

Lin Yuan smiled and said: "It's not that simple. I think they must have gone back to find the minesweepers. Their minesweepers will arrive from the ship port near the mouth of the Datong River in a day and a half at the earliest. Don't celebrate." Luo Rongguang said: "I understand, I will send a telegram to the capital to tell them the good news of victory."

Lin Yuan nodded. As soon as Luo Rongguang went out, Lin Yuan heard his angry shout from outside: "What? Some reporters want to enter the barracks, no way! Drive them all away!"

Lin Yuan heard the word "reporter" and said quickly, "Mr. Luo, what happened?"

Luo Rongguang walked in and said, "I want to report to Marshal Lin, just now the soldiers reported that there are a few reporters at the gate who want to enter the camp for interviews, and I won't allow them to come in."

Lin Yuan thought: "Does this Luo Rongguang have any grudge against the reporter?" So he asked: "Mr. Luo, why don't you let the reporter in?" A few articles, Luo looks down on such a person the most!"

Lin Yuan asked, "Is that the reason?"

Luo Rongguang nodded heavily, and Lin Yuan couldn't help smiling, thinking: "It seems that this Luo Rongguang has a deep prejudice against reporters, but this is not surprising, even in modern society, prejudice exists as deeply as a chronic disease, and often I hear a lot of people say they hate this and that, but when you really ask, they don't know anything about what they hate."

Lin Yuan asked, "Do you know what use journalists have for war?"

Luo Rongguang said disdainfully: "They are a group of pen-playing, useless scholars. What use can they have for war?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "In your mind, what does war look like?"

Luo Rongguang was taken aback, and replied: "War, real swords and guns, you die!"

Lin Yuan laughed and said, "Public opinion is also war, so journalists are also soldiers."

Luo Rongguang asked: "What is public opinion?"

Lin Yuan thought: "In modern warfare, public opinion warfare is also an important part. For example, in several wars launched by the United States, TV stations and radio stations have always been the targets of the first wave of strikes, in order to destroy the enemy's right to speak. Then you can unscrupulously fabricate false news that is not conducive to the enemy in the international community, and put yourself in a position of justice. But in this era, the war of public opinion is really too new."

So Lin Yuan said: "You invite them in first, and I will explain to you later."

Luo Rongguang half understood, and said, "I just let them in."

As soon as several reporters came in, Lin Yuan asked in surprise, "Tang Fan, why is it you?"

Tang Fan smiled and said, "Comrade Shen Wanqing has something else to do and she couldn't get away, so she let me come." After Tang Fan finished speaking, he invited the two people who were traveling with him out, and said to Lin Yuan: " When I came, Comrade Shen Wanqing asked me to bring you a message." After speaking, Tang Fan looked at the people around Lin Yuan, and stopped talking.Lin Yuan knew that this matter must not be known by others, so he followed Tang Fan outside, and Tang Fan said: "When Wan Qing monitored Hu Liang, she learned that Sakurai Romi had asked Hu Liang to arrest you. The British embassy and several major western news agencies have been notified of the shooting of British ships, and their people can arrive at night." Lin Yuan nodded and said: "Rakumi Sakurai wants to use international power to put pressure on me. Ah! However, it’s just in time, let’s see how I can beat back her tricks!”

Tang Fan was at a loss when he heard it. Just as he was about to ask again, Lin Yuan looked at his watch and said, "I'm afraid it's too late. I have to prepare. You can interview as you like."

After saying that, Lin Yuan walked out. He walked quickly to the prisoner-of-war camp. He hadn't thought about capturing prisoners of war at all, so he didn't build a room for prisoners of war, so he vacated one of the soldiers' barracks.Lin Yuan went in to take a look, and saw more than thirty prisoners of war wrapped in cotton clothes, huddling around the stove to keep warm.

Lin Yuan asked in Russian, "Which of you has the highest military rank." A prisoner of war stood up and said, "We are not soldiers at all, so we don't have any military rank. We are just ordinary businessmen. You have no right to detain us. We need to contact you." Our embassy!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan asked, "Which country are you businessmen from?"

The prisoner said: "We are British merchants!"

Lin Yuan nodded and said apologetically, "I am deeply sorry for our actions. I have already punished my subordinates. I will contact the embassy for you."

Lin Yuan asked again in English: "What do you want for dinner? Do you want some wine?"

The prisoner of war replied in English again: "We don't want to eat anything, we just want to go home as soon as possible!"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, the British ambassador will arrive soon, please wait a moment."

When Lin Yuan came out of the house, the interpreter came forward and said, "Commander Lin, what's wrong with you? Those guys are clearly Russian soldiers! When they were arrested, they were all carrying guns!"

Lin Yuan said: "Don't worry, I'm sure, I guarantee that this group of people will suffer a big loss!"
