The armor set has been chaotic, Luo Shidai's rebellion made the Beidong army have no will to fight, the main general Luo Shijie lost his fighting spirit, there was an attack by the Jianwu army outside, and the rebels were burned and killed inside, the armor set was in chaos, the command system was paralyzed, and when the granary caught fire, Luo Shidai couldn't bear it, and hurriedly ordered a retreat, leading more than 1,000 Beidong troops to take the first step and retreat to Paijia Cliff eighteen miles away.

Luo Shijie still has the last straw, the Japanese army, looking back at Luo Shijie at the blazing armor set, gnashing his teeth and hating, the armor set battle not only let him taste the bitter fruit of defeat, but also let him know the consequences of losing the hearts of the people, his brother will also rebel, who else can he trust.

In the night, the remnants of the defeated army fled rampantly, after the Beidong army marched ten miles, came to the first line of defense of the Japanese army, a hillside blocked the way, the high slope of the mountain was abrupt, there was originally a squadron of Japanese troops stationed here, which was used to meet the Beidong army.

However, when Luo Shijie led his men and horses to flee to the Japanese defense line, he had already seen a raging fire on the high slope on the road, just like the emergency signal of the beacon tower, which made people restless, Luo Shijie knew that it was not good, it must be the rebels who deceived the Japanese army and succeeded in the sneak attack, if a squadron of Japanese troops was eliminated by the rebels, how could he explain to Sakata Takeoka.

Luo Shijie was ruthless and shouted: "Advance to the high slope at full speed, rescue the brother troops, and slaughter the rebels for me." ”

Kang Jiadao ran over panting and shouted, "Your Excellency, be careful of an ambush." ”

Luo Shijie replied viciously: "Rush up for me, if you can't rush over tonight, the Qing army behind your ass will come, regardless of casualties, rush me." ”

There were sporadic gunshots behind the troops, and the vanguard of the brave Qing army was chasing the fleeing Beidong army behind. ”

Kang Jiadao was a fierce general, and with a large group of men and horses, he went straight to the high slope to rescue the trapped Japanese army.

At this time, Luo Shidai led the rebels to sneak attack successfully, has occupied the main fortifications of the Japanese army, and some Japanese troops are hiding in the tunnel, the rebels are attacking with fire, throwing all kinds of wood and branches at the mouth of the tunnel, the fire is booming, and I don't know whether the Japanese soldiers in the tunnel are alive or dead.

Although there are large groups of enemies in front and behind, but Luo Shidai is not in a hurry, he is not afraid of anyone, the Japanese army is just like this, there is not much left of the Japanese army in a squadron, and the Japanese soldiers hiding in the tunnel are cowards, it is a big deal to lead the rebels to escape into the mountains and forests, Luo Shidai has already thought of a way to retreat, and the two sneak attacks were successful, and the rebels' morale was greatly boosted, so that Luo Shidai's prestige reached its peak.

Luo Shidai ordered: "Give me a hard beating, we will stay here, if you want to pass by, leave the head of the neck, I want to learn Luo Shijie's skills, cooking Yongshi, you lead a hundred soldiers, show me the movement of the Japanese army in Paijia Cliff, as long as the Japanese army is dispatched, we will withdraw." ”

The sneak attack on the Japanese position was successful, and the joy was not over, and the cooking Yongshi still wanted to fight with the Beidong Army, but he didn't dare to violate the military order, so he hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "Yes, the Japanese want to come over, unless they step on my corpse." ”

I don't know why, when fighting the Japanese army, people are not afraid of death, when they killed the Japanese army just now, not to mention how happy it was, how many Taiwanese girls the Japanese army wasted, and how many Taiwan compatriots were killed.

The rebels had already counted the blood debt on the heads of the Japanese army, and the Beidong Army was not accustomed to the atrocities of the Japanese army, so it rose up, and the people of Beidong and the Taiwan compatriots were heart-to-heart, this is the law of war, and everything is blamed on the enemy.

Before leaving, Cooking Yongshi did not forget to turn around and say: "Big brother, half of the head is mine, I am a pioneer officer." ”

Luo Shidai smiled and waved his hand: "Don't worry, Yongshi, as long as you don't die, the head here is half of you." ”

Cooking Yongshi listened happily and led, a hundred soldiers marched south, to block the Japanese army five miles away from the cliff, it was difficult to mobilize a large army at night, Cooking Yongshi believed that the Japanese army would not be dispatched, as long as it was after tonight, everything would be settled.

The guns rang out, and Gu Ant led 300 rebels to fight Luo Shijie at night, and the rebels relied on the mountain to block the Beidong army.

It is very difficult to fight at night, fighting in the faint moonlight, the target cannot be seen clearly, it seems that the guns are loud, and both sides are fighting happily, but the casualties are small, and both sides are wasting ammunition.

Night battles can only be close combat, to have the courage of hand-to-hand combat, the Beidong army is unwilling to climb up, Kang Jiadao shouted hoarsely, his soldiers are still lying on the ground, very stubbornly pulling the bolt, a few hot-headed soldiers, rushed up and disappeared, even more so that the Beidong army is reluctant to charge.

Kang Jiadao saw that the morale of the army was lost, and he could not organize a charging formation, if it dragged on until dawn, let alone rescue the Japanese army, the whole army might have to surrender to the rebels.

People have selfish intentions, in troubled times, there are soldiers and horses can have the value of existence, Kang Jiadao has five hundred private soldiers in his hands, this is the foundation of his foothold, Kang Jiadao saw that the fire on the hillside is still strong, the rebels are still very tenacious, for a while, it is impossible to capture the enemy's position.

Kang Jiadao is good at making claims, issuing an order to retreat to Paijiaya, so that the rest of the troops can withstand the fire of the rebels, and organize a large army to retreat to Paijiaya, which also requires courage, Kangjiadao is qualified to make decisions, the defeated army has no will to fight, so it is necessary to take the troops away as much as possible, and if you are too entangled in the gains and losses, you will suffer a greater defeat.

Luo Shijie was quite helpless, he wanted to rescue the Japanese army, but his subordinates had not listened to his orders, at this time they could only comply with the will of the people, otherwise the troops were in danger of mutiny, Luo Shijie acquiesced to the military order to retreat, and did not say a word along the way, and fled to Paijia Cliff with the large army.

More than 1,000 Beidong troops were attacked by the rebels along the way, and more than 100 people were killed, and some of the undetermined Beidong troops voluntarily surrendered to the rebels, and when they arrived at Paijia Cliff, the Beidong army was less than 800 people, and many Beidong soldiers even discarded their guns.

Looking at the embarrassed remnants of the defeated army, Luo Shijie took out his pistol, and had the idea of killing himself, but before he could make a move, he was snatched away by his subordinates.

Osa Sakata Takeoka did not dare to let the Beidong army go up the mountain, for fear of the enemy's sneak attack, and waited until dawn to let more than 700 Beidong troops go up the mountain.

Osakata Takeoka led 2,000 Japanese troops to stick to Paijia Cliff, relying on the mountain, to establish a defensive line, this line of defense is the northern defense line of the Japanese army, the most important link, the loss of Paijia Cliff, Yushan has no danger to defend, lose Yushan, the north of the Pingtung Plain will be a horse Pingchuan, lose the Pingtung Plain, the Japanese army can only stick to Guishan, then food supply will be the biggest difficulty for the Japanese army, even if the Japanese army hoards grain and grass in Guishan for two years, it is doomed to a failed war.

Sakata Takeoka knows how heavy his burden is, losing Paijia Cliff, the Qing army will not have a military threat, the Qing army will cross the Jade Mountain, like a tide to the Pingtung Plain, and the Japanese army can only stick to the Turtle Mountain, it may not even be the harbor Langqiao, the Japanese army will fight with the Qing army in the mountains and mountains, and the Japanese army that has lost the supply line can last for a long time.

More than 700 Beidong troops hid in the fortifications dug by the Japanese army, and had a chance to survive, and they also wanted to defeat the Qing army by virtue of the danger of Paijia Cliff.

Although Sakata Takeoka was very dissatisfied with Luo Shijie, and the Beidong Army did not save him when he saw death, so he lost a squadron of soldiers in vain, but the Beidong people were the foundation of the Japanese army's foothold in Taiwan, Sakata Takeoka not only did not embarrass Luo Shijie, but instead comforted the fleeing Beidong Army with kind words, gave Luo Shijie two Japanese geisha, and let the gentle and charming Japanese woman soothe the wounded heart of Luo Shijie, the prince of Beidong.

Paijia cliff defense line, by the mountains and rivers, there are natural caves, as well as the fortifications excavated by the Japanese army, relying on the cliffs, like steel knives, straight into the jade mountain, there are endless mountains as strategic depth, and there are steep mountains, as support, it seems to be solid.

Sakata Takeoka took Luo Shijie and others to look at the terrain, and said complacently: "Paijia Cliff will be Liu Mingdeng's grave, I will destroy as many enemies as there are, His Royal Highness the Prince, you can spend a winter here with peace of mind, and when the Japanese army enters Taiwan in a big way in the coming year, we will do a strategic counteroffensive, recapture everything we have lost, and recover Taiwan in one fell swoop." ”

Luo Shijie learned the appearance of the Japanese army, bowed respectfully and thanked, and replied: "Hey, our Beidong Army is not good at mountain warfare, and we will learn more from the Imperial Japanese Army in the future. ”

Luo Shijie was grateful to Sakata Takeoka, after seeing the Paijia Cliff pit and continuous ravines, as well as the storage of enough food for 3,000 people and horses in the cave, Luo Shijie was convinced that the fortifications of Paijia Cliff were indestructible, and swore that the people were in the position, and would never take half a step back, and swore to serve the Japanese Empire.

"Well, I believe in the combat effectiveness of your Beidong Army, now take a little rest, and there will be a war soon." Sakata Takeoka is ready to let the Beidong Army be cannon fodder, Luo Shijie let the Japanese army lose an infantry squadron, an artillery squadron, this revenge must be avenged, Sakata Takeoka has already thought about it, if the Japanese army is defeated, the first one will secretly execute all the officers of the Beidong Army, the Beidong Army actually has the face to flee back, abandoning the Japanese friendly troops in the forward position, more than 200 Japanese soldiers sacrificed in vain for their pig-like comrades, this friendly army has no reason to exist.

Sakata Takeoka was very confident in the Paijia Cliff defense line, believing that relying on geographical advantages, the Qing army could be blocked north of Yushan, and as long as the Japanese army held Paijia Cliff, the Qing army would not dare to attack the Pingtung Plain on a large scale.

Sakata Takeoka subdued his Japanese officers, so that the Japanese army did not raise the butcher's knife against the Beidong Army, and the loss of armor set made the Japanese army lose an important supply line, and the materials transported across the Jade Mountain needed the service of the Beidong people, so that the Japanese army did not dare to poison the Beidong Army.

Sakata Takeoka did not punish the defeated Luo Shijie, held back the fire in his belly, left the garrison of the Beidong Army, and hoped that the Qing army would attack Paijiaya on a large scale, so that the Japanese army could be disgraced and eliminate a large number of Qing troops.

At this time, the rebels were still unable to conquer the Japanese tunnel, and there were still the remaining Japanese troops hiding in the tunnels to resist stubbornly, Luo Shidai was scratching his ears and cheeks on the high slope, and the smoke could not kill the Japanese army, so there was no way, as for the two bronze cannons captured, no one would make it.

Luo Shidai said helplessly: "We don't want to make unnecessary casualties, let's ask Liu Mingdeng's Jianwu Army to help, Gu Ant, you go to contact the Jianwu Army, it's best to negotiate directly with Liu Mingdeng." ”

"Yes, big brother, don't worry, as long as I carry my father's signboard, no one will not know." Gu Ant led a team of men and horses to negotiate with the Qing army, and thought that he had succeeded.

More than a dozen rebels drove a carriage with bloody human heads, all of which were short-haired Japanese heads, which was the rebels' name.

Gu Ant has Han Chinese blood, looks like Han people, is a head taller than ordinary Beidong people, his father is a businessman, named Gu Youxi, is a very famous businessman, the Gu family and Beidong people have decades of business dealings.

At this time, Li Guolou sent people to negotiate with the Beidong Tusi Luo Xin, all of which were brokered by Gu Youxi in the middle, although the negotiations were fruitless, but Gu Youxi still played a certain role, so that more Beidong people understood the ethnic policy of the Qing Dynasty, and played a role in dividing and disintegrating the Beidong Army.

When Gu Youxi was trading with the Beidong tribe, after having an affair with a Beidong girl, he had the species of Gu ants.

The ordinary people of Beidong are a nation that only knows who their mother is, and they don't know who their father is, and the people of Beidong live in groups, of course, the nobles are also like the Han people, living a life of three wives and four concubines, but Gu Ant looks like a Han person, tall and tall, and at a glance he knows that it is the seed left by Gu Youxi, Gu Youxi is rich, and has been supporting Gu Ant's mother, so he followed his father's surname.

Gu Ant took the order and left, Dai Jitao came out of nowhere, and said with a lewd smile: "Big brother, how did you get it when you captured twelve Paiwan girls in the Japanese outpost." ”

Luo Shidai suddenly changed color, and shouted: "Quickly release the captured Paiwan girl to me, you must remember that we are to rescue the Taiwan compatriots, and the Taiwan compatriots have the same hatred and hatred, and the muzzle of the gun is the same to the outside world, it was the Japanese army that brutalized our Taiwan compatriots, and the crime was committed by a very small number of Beidong people who fought for the tiger, that is the blood debt committed by Luo Yuxin, and it has nothing to do with our Beidong people, if anyone does not obey the discipline, Lao Tzu will want his life now." ”

Dai Jitao was so frightened that he almost peed his pants, what he had done, it was self-explanatory, Dai Jitao turned around and left, shouting: "Big brother, be merciful, don't blame those who don't know, I'll release people." ”

Dai Jitao changed his past wrongs, and just captured more than 100 silver coins from the Japanese army, and directly gave them to 12 Paiwan girls, and the two sides settled up.
