In the face of the Qing court's declaration of war, Lin Fei decided to temporarily hold his troops, but the people in the country were excited, on the one hand, they asked Lin Fei to fight quickly, and on the other hand, they signed up to join the army, but Lin Fei did not have the idea of large-scale expansion of military strength, because the strength of the Qing court was very weak after all, and Lin Fei was not required to start the national war mobilization plan, so that the whole of China entered a state of full-scale war.

Lin Fei instructed the Propaganda Department to do a good job in the propaganda work of the people, so that the people can produce with peace of mind, and do their own work, the Propaganda Department is Lin Fei's pen force, Lin Fei's mouthpiece, and obeys Lin Fei's life.

Lin Fei has always been directly in command of the "ministry", this is because in Lin Fei's Chinese Empire, there was no position such as prime minister and prime minister, in Chinese history, the imperial power and the prime minister have been fighting for a long time, and the prime minister has checked and balanced the imperial power in a certain way, so that the imperial power can not do whatever it wants, until the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang abolished the prime minister, the prime minister ended, and the power was completely in the hands of the emperor.

If the Huaxia Empire wants to develop, it must completely obey Lin Fei's orders, so Lin Fei concentrated all the power on himself, and below him is the "ministry" responsible for various specific work.

The next day, at 10 o'clock in the morning on November 29, Lin Fei's subordinates suddenly came to report: "Kang Youwei, the Qing minister to China, asks to see you. ”

The Qing embassy in China was established after the Fuzhou City incident, the Fuzhou City incident is the official name for Lin Fei's arrest of Zhang Zhidong, the Qing ambassador to China, it is the famous Kang Youwei in Lin Fei's era, Kang Youwei This person Lin Fei does not dare to underestimate, he is not a big rice bucket like Zhou Zhenbang, he has real talent and learning, and he is extremely loyal to the Qing Dynasty emperor, can cause Lin Fei a lot of trouble.

Lin Fei immediately asked his subordinate Xuan Kang Youwei to meet him, and Kang Youwei soon came to Lin Fei, his expression was neither humble nor arrogant, "Mr. Lin Fei, I am here for the Qing Empire's declaration of war with Huaxia. ”

Lin Fei smiled and said, "I have already guessed it, and I am not surprised. ”

Kang Youwei saw that Lin Fei's face was relaxed and there was no anger at all, and he was surprised by Lin Fei's calmness, he calmed down and sneered: "Mr. Lin Fei, I came this time to persuade you to surrender. ”

Lin Fei was once again shocked by the arrogance and arrogance of the Qing court, and he said helplessly: "You came to persuade me to surrender, is this true?" ”

Kang Youwei said: "Not bad." ”

Lin Fei couldn't help but smile, "Mr. Kang Youwei, where did you get the confidence to dare to persuade me to surrender?" ”

Kang Youwei laughed loudly, "Mr. Lin Fei, you are the rebellion of my Qing Dynasty, Taiwan is the territory of my Qing Dynasty, we crusade against you and recover Taiwan, it is in response to the principles of heaven and the people's will, the time, the place, and the people are all occupied by us, how can you be undefeated?" ”

Lin Fei's brows furrowed slightly, and a burst of anger rose, these two reasons of the Qing Kingdom could not help but make him angry, Lin Fei was an upright Chinese, why did the Manchus let him be their lackey? Taiwan was taken by Lin Fei from the Japanese, when Lin Fei fought bloodily in Taiwan, where was the Qing Kingdom? Now that Taiwan has developed well, the Qing State actually jumped out and said that Taiwan is theirs, and the Manchu nobles, do they dare to be more shameless?

Thinking of this, Lin Fei's tone became stern, "Mr. Kang Youwei, since you are here to persuade me to surrender, then I will also advise you, or you should surrender." ”

Kang Youwei's face changed even more, and he was furious, "Ridiculous, how can I, the Qing Dynasty, surrender to the rats?" ”

Lin Fei saw that Kang Youwei was angered by himself, he was very proud, and said with a smile: "Mr. Kang Youwei, with the military strength of the Qing Dynasty, it is impossible to defeat our Huaxia, let alone recapture the island of Taiwan, and attack blatantly, it is just to increase casualties, our Huaxia is a country of Chinese, I regard the people of the Qing Dynasty as my compatriots, I can't bear to watch them die in vain." ”

Kang Youwei frowned, his eyes shot cold, and he said angrily: "Lin Fei, you regard my people of the Great Qing Dynasty as your compatriots, and you want to steal the foundation of my Great Qing Dynasty for three hundred years, right?" ”

Lin Fei laughed a few times, "Mr. Kang Youwei, since you are obsessed with the Qing Dynasty, then go to war, you remember for me, today, I put the opportunity to end the war in front of you, but you didn't cherish it, and when you can't fight anymore and want to stop the war, it won't be so easy to end the war." ”

Kang Youwei stood up "Teng", shook his sleeves heavily, said "farewell" angrily, turned around and walked outside, Lin Fei smiled and said "don't send", looking at Kang Youwei's back, Lin Fei sneered in his heart: "A good Kang Youwei, a good Qing court, is actually using tricks to provoke me, I am not fooled." ”

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and both the Chinese and Qing countries did not move, declaring war without starting a war, which is a rare spectacle in the history of world wars, and later historians called this stage "strange war".

On December 2, in the yamen of the Liangjiang Governor in Nanjing, an old man dressed in a Manchu official uniform was sitting at the table, looking at the map in front of him in a daze, and behind him, a beautiful girl of seventeen or eighteen years old was raising her pink fist and gently beating him on the shoulder.

That girl's beauty is really special, this is an otherworldly beauty, not stained with a trace of dust, everyone will sigh sincerely when they see her, this girl, is the Nine Heavens Fairy, how could she fall into the mortal world?

At this moment, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy walked in, knelt on the ground, and said respectfully, "Lord Kaiyu Nakado, Mr. Gentaro Kodama asks to see you." ”

It turned out that this old man was an important minister of the Manchu Qing Dynasty...... Li...

The word "Zhongtang" originally meant "prime minister", but the Qing Dynasty followed the official system of the Ming Dynasty, and there was no prime minister in the court.

As for Li Hongzhang's historical position in Lin Fei's era, there is no need to say more, and it is impossible for every Chinese person not to know Li Hongzhang.

Li Hongzhang said, "Please let him in," his voice was extremely soft, almost inaudible, this was Li Hongzhang's official authority, he would only speak softly, and his subordinates could only listen attentively.

The little guy agreed, ran out, the time was not big, Kodama Gentaro walked in in a Confucian costume, Li Hongzhang said to the beautiful girl behind him, "You go out first", the girl stopped, said "farewell", turned around and walked to the back house.

As soon as Kodama Gentaro came in, his eyes were completely on the girl's body, and now the girl turned around and walked to the back house, and Kodama Gentaro stared at her intently, at this time he suddenly found that the girl's right leg was a little lame, and she was limping when she walked, and she couldn't help but shout in her heart that it was a pity, but this limping posture added a bit of pity to this fairy girl.

Li Hongzhang said, "Please sit", Kodama Gentaro retracted his gaze and sat down in front of Li Hongzhang, "Lord Zhongtang, has the Chinese Empire marched?" ”

"No, the two ships of Yulong and Aolong, which are guarding Taiwan, have not left an inch, and the 24th Brigade of the Eighth Division of the Fourth Group Army, which is guarding Penghu Island, is still stationed in the same place."

Kodama Gentaro frowned, "I didn't expect Lin Fei to see through our strategy and stand still." ”

Li Hongzhang nodded slightly, picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and without saying a word, Kodama Gentaro said: "In order to ensure the smooth implementation of the Doomsday Trial Plan, we hope that the Qing Kingdom can really march into the Penghu Islands." ”

When Kodama Gentaro said this, Li Hongzhang was holding the teacup, and when he heard this, the teacup in his hand hung in the air, neither up nor down, Kodama Gentaro knew that Li Hongzhang was contemplative, and didn't want to disturb him, just looked at him calmly, and after a long time, Li Hongzhang put down the teacup, "Okay, I agreed, I will give the order to attack Penghu Island." ”

Gentaro Kodama smiled and said, "Thank you, Lord Nakado," then got up to say goodbye, and asked as he was leaving, "I don't know who that girl is?" I have been in the Qing Kingdom for so long, and I have never seen such a beautiful and fairy-like woman. ”

Li Hongzhang replied casually: "It's just a mountain woman." ”

"There is such a woman in the mountains and wilderness......" Kodama Gentaro left in amazement, Li Hongzhang saw Kodama Gentaro walking away, slapped the table heavily, and said angrily: "I am in the Heavenly Dynasty, and I am going to be driven away by the Japanese slaves..."

No one heard Li Hongzhang's anger, Li Hongzhang sighed, coughed lightly, and the girl limped out, like a suffering fairy, I felt pity.

The girl knelt down in front of Li Hongzhang and called "Lord Zhongtang", the voice was also not stained, Li Hongzhang did not look back, but asked lightly: "How does Li treat you?" ”

The girl bowed her head to the ground, "Lord Zhongtang is kind to the slave and maid, if there is no Lord Zhongtang to save him, the slave and maid have already been tortured to death by the Qing soldiers." ”

Li Hongzhang sighed lightly and said sadly: "Although you are after the rebellion, but after all, you are a beautiful woman, those unscrupulous soldiers actually tortured and humiliated you with a wooden donkey, and also nailed your legs to the wooden donkey with an iron hammer, so that today's legs and feet are inconvenient, it really shouldn't be... It is because there are too many such unscrupulous rats in the Qing Dynasty that the people are separated from morality, and then the Chinese country has a place to stand. ”

Li Hongzhang sighed, "I, Li, have the heart to refine stones and make up for the sky, but I don't have the power of Nuwa, it's painful, it's a pity..."

The girl cautiously asked, "Is there anything the slave can do?" ”

Li Hongzhang smiled slightly, "Your skills are very good, this is what I value very much, it is said that the Japanese sent a woman to wait for the opportunity to assassinate Lin Fei, what the Japanese can do, I think the Qing Dynasty can do better......"

Li Hongzhang whispered a few words, the girl nodded again and again, said "The slave knows", and left with a limp, Li Hongzhang called a small servant and ordered: "Go and call the comfort pavilion." ”

This "comfort pavilion" is the famous Yuan Shikai in the Lin Fei era.
