Although it was not against the Russians, as the highest commander of the Eight-Nation Alliance's garrison, Yuki Otsu, naturally, could not ignore Colonel Wojkov's request. After all, on the surface, the unity of the Eight-Nation Alliance must be maintained, and Volkov's request was also very reasonable. The Russian army was ambushed, so as the coalition, naturally, they had to find the place back.

In addition, Yuki Otsu was also worried that if he let the Qing army go without regard and develops to organize a large number of people and attack the Eight-Nation Alliance in Dagukou, the consequences would be very serious. After all, Dagukou only has 500 Japanese troops stationed in Dagukou, and other countries only bend warships in Dagukou, and have not sent garrisons. Dagukou is the retreat route of the coalition forces, so its location is naturally very important and must not be missed.

So Yuki Otsu immediately decided that he must extinguish this resistance force in a very long time to prevent the expansion of this force. Therefore, Yuki Otsu ordered to recruit commanders from the naval forces of various countries to come to the command center for a meeting to discuss.

Soon, the naval commanders of various countries arrived. Yuki Otsu first told everyone about the news of the Russian army's encounter, and then announced that they would immediately organize the army and set out early tomorrow morning to attack the Qing army.

Although it was indeed a bit hasty to send troops tomorrow morning, Yuki Otsu understands the principle that soldiers are more powerful than speed. The Qing army had just won a battle today and was at the most psychological relaxation. Therefore, the coalition forces should immediately dispatch and attack the enemy with lightning speed and catch the enemy off guard.

Colonel Volkov immediately represented the Russian army and agreed with Yuki Otsu. Yuki Otsu decided to send troops tomorrow, which was really beyond Volkov's expectations. It seemed that the Russian army was ambushed, which should have nothing to do with the coalition. The coalition sent troops to find the place for the Russian army, so of course there was no reason for the Russian army to refuse.

Britain, the United States, France, Germany and other countries have no objection to this. Anyway, they are idle, so it is better to take this opportunity to go ashore to go activities and pass the boring time. The two countries of Italy and Austria are originally playing soybeans, so they naturally have no objections. However, now all countries can only dispatch soldiers on warships, but they still need to retain enough personnel on warships. Therefore, the commanders of various countries cannot decide on the force they can dispatch on the spot. They can only go back to adjust the selection to determine how many people they can send to participate in the war.

Yuki Otsu naturally understood this, so he agreed with the commanders of various countries that the troops sent by various countries would gather on the ashore at five o'clock tomorrow morning and set off on time at six o'clock.

Now the Japanese fleet is cruising on the sea, but has not returned yet. At Dagukou, only the town is parked. The two ships with a displacement of 400 tons on the side of the town are cruising on the sea. The fleet will cruise on the sea in a uncertain time, and it is possible for a day or several days. After all, the weather on the sea is changing unpredictable, so the Yuren Otsu was not worried about the navy. The forces dispatched by the Japanese army were selected in the army. The Yuren Otsu decided to dispatch 420 people, including two 87mm caliber Knubo guns and three 70mm caliber Knubo guns, five 47mm caliber Hakikas machine guns, three Maxim machine guns, eighty military horses, and fifty transport vehicles.

Because Japan's industrial foundation was still very weak at this time, in addition to the Japanese rifle used by the domestic 30 Murata rifle, the artillery also needs to be purchased from abroad. In another time and space, the main artillery of the Japanese army's Type 30 75mm mountain cannon in the Russo-Japanese War was still under development at this time. The artillery used in the Japanese army is mainly the German Knubo artillery.

The next morning, the troops of various countries gathered at the command department.

After the Japanese fleet went on patrol, the Russian ships anchored at Dagukou had the largest number of Russian ships, including two large warships of more than 10,000 tons. The Russian army was going to retrieve the yard, so the most soldiers were dispatched, with a total of 325 people, commanded by the second deputy naval colonel Mozgov on the Sissoi, including four 47mm caliber Hakikas machine guns and three Maxim machine guns, all of which were removed from the warships. Originally, the Russian army planned to dismantle a few medium-caliber artillery, but firstly because the time was too tight, and secondly because the cannons could be removed, but there was no matching cannon mount, so it was useless, so they had to give up.

Among other countries, Britain dispatched 145 people, with a Maxim machine gun, the commander was Navy Lieutenant Colonel Gunnarson; Germany dispatched 107 people, with a Navy Major Campbell; the United States dispatched 98 people, with a Maxim machine gun, the commander was Navy Major Fletcher; France dispatched 55 people, with a Navy Major Gazi; Italy and the Austro-Hungarian Empire were originally a role in playing soybeans, and the warships sent were all gunboats, so only fifteen and twelve were sent respectively this time, and the commanders were all lieutenants.

However, the total number of troops is 1,177, including five medium-caliber artillery, nine caliber rapid-fire artillery, and eight Maxim machine guns. Yanran is a shrinking version of the Eight-Nation Alliance.

Such troops and firepower configurations made Yuki Otsu very satisfied. To deal with the Chinese people's sea of ​​people, caliber rapid-fired artillery and Maxim machine guns are undoubtedly the best choice. As for the Qing army, Yuki Otsuki basically ignored it because based on the experience of fighting in China this time, even if they encountered ten thousand Qing troops, they could still win.

First of all, Yuki Otsu recruited the commanders of the Eight-Nation Alliance and understood his tactical plan. Because the ambushing the Russian army took place around noon yesterday, I would never have thought that the coalition would make a comeback in one day. Yuki Otsu planned to use a half-day marching to strive to arrive at Hejiawan Village around 12 noon. At this time, it is usually lunch time. If the enemy ambushing the Russian army has not left, it must be having a meal. The vigilance will never be high. The coalition can take the opportunity to launch an attack and catch the enemy off guard.

The commanders of all countries are all naval forces and are not familiar with land warfare. In addition, they look down on the Qing army in their hearts and do not pay attention to tactics and other things. Therefore, they have no objection to Otsu Yuki's tactical plan.

So Yuki Otsu ordered the entire army to start immediately, and the troops of the eight countries were organized into eight teams according to each country, led by the Japanese and American armies, behind the Russian army, the British and French armies were left wings, and Germany and Austria meant the right wings, and headed towards Hejiawanshu. At the same time, Yuki Otsu also instructed the commanders of various countries to be vigilant along the way to prevent attacks from the Chinese team and the Chinese people.

The coalition forces marched all the way, and at about 950, they arrived at Juhe Town. At this time, the coalition forces had already walked three and a half times and were also a little tired. Yushu Otsu asked the Russian soldiers who had fled back, knowing that this place was only 12 or 3 kilometers away from Hejiawan Village. According to the speed of the coalition forces, they could reach Hejiawan Village in two hours. So Yushu Otsu ordered the coalition forces to rest in Juhe Town for half a day and eat some food. After a while, they arrived at Hejiawan Village, and then launched an attack on the enemy without lunch.

During the rest, the coalition forces were still divided according to various countries, occupying a piece of land in Kuhe Town, which was clearly divided. However, the countries all arranged soldiers to patrol and guard against the enemy, not only to prevent the enemy, but also to prevent friendly troops. After resting for half a day, the soldiers all ate dry food. Yuki Otsu felt that it was almost done and was about to order the coalition forces to continue to set off.

But at this moment, I heard a burst of gunfire from the front "bang bang bang bang bang" and Yuki Otsu was shocked. The gunfire was coming from the left, which was the direction of the British and French armies. Is it difficult to be attacked by the Qing army and the people?

Yuki Otsu didn't dare to neglect it. While ordering the armies of various countries to strengthen their vigilance and prepare for battle, he led a team to rush to the base of the British and French armies.

Britain and France were originally feudal, and they could continue to rebel until the Hundred Years' War that occurred in the 145th century. However, in recent years, due to Germany's rise and aggressive momentum on both continental and ocean lines, both Britain and France felt huge pressure, so they let go of their hatred and began to work together to fight against the rise of Germany. Therefore, over the past few years, Britain and France have gradually approached. Although they have not reached the level of alliance, they have been very close to each other. Although the two armies are stationed separately, they are very close to each other, so they are somewhat friendly.

When they arrived at the base of the British and French armies, they saw that the soldiers of the two armies were hiding behind houses, trees, stones, vehicles and other bunkers, and they raised their guns to guard them, as if they were facing a great enemy. However, there were no enemy attacks outside the four sides, but there were only two or three human bodies lying on the open space, and it seemed that they were dead.

Although I didn't know what happened, when Otsu Yuki saw this, he couldn't help but feel at ease and ordered the Japanese soldiers to find cover to hide, and ordered them to find the commander of the British and French armies.

After a while, Lieutenant Colonel Gunnarson, the commander of the French army, Major Gazi, rushed to Yuki Otsu and told Otsuki what had just happened.

It turned out that the British and French armies were stationed in the southeast of Juhe Town to rest and also arranged sentry and patrol soldiers. The soldiers were very relaxed in their meals and water. They were originally calm and quiet, but suddenly the two British soldiers who were holding guns and holding watch fell to the ground. Someone rushed over and saw that they had both died of headshots.

The other British soldiers were naturally shocked and stopped eating, raised their guns and looked around to find the enemy, which even alarmed the French army on one side. However, the fields were vast and there were no people. I didn't hear the gunshots just now, so I didn't know where the enemy was.

Just when the soldiers of the British and French armies were at a loss, the attack followed one after another, and several British soldiers were shot and killed or injured. However, the British and French soldiers were alert at this time, so many people heard very slight gunfires, and the enemy was obviously shooting from a distance.

But this also allows people to distinguish the direction of the gunshots. So the soldiers of the British and French armies raised their guns and shot in the direction where the gunshots came. This is the gunshots that Yuki Otsu just heard just now.
