Lin Fei never saw any guests when he met with the mysterious person, this was to protect the agents working behind enemy lines, he saw Li Ming disobey his orders and burst in, frowned, and said angrily: "Why did you suddenly break in and take my words as a deaf ear?" ”

Li Ming said anxiously: "This matter is too serious, I can't take care of anything." ”

The attendant Jin Ming followed behind Li Mingming, ashamed and afraid, and said to Lin Fei: "Your Majesty, I stopped Chief of Staff Li, but it was useless, the Chief of Staff was too anxious, pushed me away, and I couldn't greet the guards......"

"Forget it, you go out first." Lin Fei waved his hand and sent Jin Ming out, "Lao Li, let's go out and say, Ghost Shadow, you wait here first." ”

Liu Ying nodded, Lin Fei took Li Ming out, and came to another room, Lin Fei asked, "What happened to make you so flustered?" ”

Li Ming said in a deep voice: "The Qing Kingdom has declared war..."

"What...," Lin Fei exclaimed, "You say it again." ”

"Your Majesty, you heard it right, the Qing State has declared war, the Qing State has declared war on our Chinese Empire..."

The Qing Kingdom actually declared war on Huaxia, Lin Fei was unexpected, and hurriedly asked, "What time is this?" ”

"Just ten minutes ago, the Qing court sent an envoy to the Penghu Islands to present to our defenders the edict of declaration of war issued by Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty."

"How could the Qing Kingdom declare war? It shouldn't be..."Lin Fei frowned, because the Qing State's declaration of war really made him unbelievable, and modern military knowledge told him that there would be no sudden war between the two countries, and there would inevitably be a series of signs before the war.

These signs include that the two sides are in a very tense situation, the contradictions can no longer be resolved at the negotiating table, and force is the only means to resolve the contradictions; Militarily, the two sides are in an intransigent confrontation, and each side will gather large numbers of troops to the border area.

However, the Qing State and Huaxia did not have these signs, although Lin Fei once caught Zhang Zhidong, an important minister of the Qing court, and caused the Qing court to suffer great humiliation, but the matter was resolved at the negotiating table, although it was said that the Qing State suffered a loss, but it was not to declare war, and more importantly, the Qing State had no sign of gathering troops at all...

Unlike Japan, Lin Fei was not good at intelligence work, and Fujian, Zhejiang, and Guangdong were right under Taiwan's nose, and because the people on both sides of the strait had the same language and culture, they had very close personnel exchanges, and a large amount of information was sent to Taiwan's Fourth Group Army intelligence office every day, and this information clearly and clearly showed that the Qing State had not assembled troops on the southeast coast at all, nor had it hoarded supplies.

The more Lin Fei thought about it, the more confused he became, and asked, "What about the edict of declaring war, show it to me." ”

Li Ming took out a copy of the text from his briefcase and handed it to Lin Fei, "This is the transcript of the edict of the declaration of war, and the original manuscript is in Taiwan. ”

Lin Fei took it and looked at it, only to see that it was written: "Lin Fei, the emperor of the Chinese Empire, is a pawn of a sailor in the Qing Dynasty, in the First Sino-Japanese War, he was captured for his time, Lai Tianen escaped with his life, he did not want to return to his homeland, and he was loyal to the Qing Dynasty, but he colluded with the traitorous party, gathered in the South Seas, and stole Taiwan. ”

It turned out that the Qing court used Lin Fei to declare war on the two main grounds of rebellion and recapture of Taiwan, and these two points could indeed not be resolved by negotiation means, and the Qing court's declaration of war seemed to be understandable, but what about the Qing army, where did it come from?

Lin Fei suddenly thought of the Doomsday Judgment plan, could it be that the Qing Kingdom's declaration of war was also part of the Doomsday Trial Plan?

Lin Fei put his doubts aside and said in a deep voice: "The Qing State has already declared war, we can't admit it, and issue an edict to publicly announce that I, the Chinese Empire, have officially declared war on the Qing Empire..."

Li Ming nodded, and Lin Fei continued: "Inform the senior generals of the army and navy, and after half an hour, go to the palace conference room for a meeting." ”

Li Ming agreed, turned around and went out, Lin Fei returned to Liu Ying, and said in a deep voice: "The Qing Kingdom has declared war. ”

Liu Ying was taken aback, "The Qing Kingdom has declared war, and Japan is also preparing to declare war on us, do we have to face two enemies at the same time?" ”

Lin Fei said worriedly: "It's not just as simple as facing two enemies, once the war starts, the Qing army will inevitably attack the Penghu Islands in the west of Taiwan, and Japan will inevitably attack the northern part of Taiwan, or the eastern part of Taiwan, and we will have to fight on two fronts." ”

Liu Ying's face changed instantly, two-front warfare has always been a taboo for soldiers, and people with a little military knowledge know that in Lin Fei's era, countries that failed because of two-front battles abounded, such as Japan during World War II, which had to fight both in China and in the Pacific, and finally could not escape the fate of defeat.

Lin Fei said: "Okay, if it's okay, you can go back first, and try to send as much information as possible to the Japanese army in the future." ”

Liu Ying said goodbye and went back, Lin Fei hurried to the conference room, and half an hour later, all the senior generals of the army and navy arrived, Lin Fei said: "Everyone knows about the Qing court's declaration of war, right?" Let's talk about it. ”

Liu Daming slapped the table and said angrily: "The Qing court of the dog day doesn't take us seriously, I think we will mobilize warships to attack the Qing court, Beijing is too far away, Fuzhou, Guangzhou and Nanjing are around, let's take down these places first..."

At this time, Lin Fei had four Emperor-class cruisers and twelve Dragon-class cruisers, and these warships were deployed in different places, so they needed to be mobilized when they were used.

In the Emperor-class cruisers, the Han Wu ship and the Tang Zong ship were stationed in Dayu City, the Qin Emperor ship was stationed in Pontianak, and the Song Zu ship was stationed in Jakarta.

In the dragon-class cruisers, the Sky Dragon Ship, the Cloud Dragon Ship, the Tenglong Ship and the Hidden Dragon Ship guarded Dayu City, the Dragon Ship and the Proud Dragon Ship guarded Taipei, the Crazy Dragon Ship and the Angry Dragon Ship guarded Pontianak, the Kanglong Ship and the Flying Dragon Ship guarded Jakarta, and the Ice Dragon Ship and the Fire Dragon Ship guarded Yanhuang City.

The reason for this deployment was that the Chinese Empire faced the threat of the enemy mainly in the direction of Dayu City, Taipei, Yanhuang City, Pontianak and Jakarta.

Dayu City is relatively close to the British Senna Port, after the Pontianak War, the British were not able to take Pontianak as they wished, and used Pontianak as a springboard to operate the Senna Port, but this does not mean that the British will not use the Senna Port as a base to launch a surprise attack on Dayu City.

Since France joined the anti-Chinese camp, Dayu City will face a threat from Vietnam, Vietnam is a French colony, Cam Ranh Bay in Vietnam is an excellent harbor that can berth aircraft carriers, how could the French let go of here, they built this place into an excellent military port, and the warships anchored here always threaten Dayu City.

Pontianak and Jakarta are needless to say that they are the core of the British region in the South Seas...... Recently, Singapore had to be heavily armed to defend against the British.

Needless to say, Taipei was a bridgehead for defending against Japan and deterring the Qing court.

As for Yanhuang City, where Lin Fei started, because it was located on Samar Island, it faced the least threat, but Lin Fei didn't dare to be careless, he was worried that the Japanese army or the Qing army would conduct a long-distance attack, so he left two warships in Yanhuang City.

Lin Fei said in a deep voice: "The Qing State's declaration of war is very abnormal, I suspect that behind their declaration of war, there is another conspiracy, everyone think about it, has the contradiction between us and the Qing State reached the point where it has to be resolved by war?" If they really got to that point, why didn't they gather forces along the southeast coast? ”

Everyone was silent, and Liu Daming said: "What is the Qing Kingdom's declaration of war for, is it for fun?" ”

"I just got information today that Japan is actively preparing for war, and it is very likely that it will declare war on our country, and I suspect that the Qing country's declaration of war is a deliberate shift of our attention to the Penghu Islands in western Taiwan, and the Penghu Islands are the first place where the Qing army will attack, and Japan will take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack on the eastern part of Taiwan."

When Liu Daming and the others heard Lin Fei's analysis, they all nodded in agreement, and Lin Fei continued: "So in the face of the declaration of war by the Qing State, don't take the initiative to attack first, take defense as an attack, and wait and see what happens." ”

"How can you take defense as offense and wait and see what happens?"

"It's very simple, order the defenders of Penghu, strengthen the defense of Penghu, order the dragon ship and the dragon ship, garrison Taipei, do not reinforce Penghu, and do not give the Japanese Navy a chance to take advantage of it, you may not know that the Japanese Navy has established a second joint fleet, and the number of warships and the types of warships are not clear at present."

"You don't have to worry about the defense of the Penghu Islands, the defense system of the Penghu Islands is quite complete, we have stationed a brigade on the island, if the situation requires, this brigade can be quickly expanded into a division, this brigade is equipped with fifteen HP-2 75 mm howitzers, 60 HP-1 60 mm mortars, this kind of firepower, looking at all the four group armies of the Chinese Empire, no troops can reach it."

"What is more beneficial to us is that there are 50 shore defense batteries on the Penghu Islands, which are equipped with the land version of the JP-240-1 naval gun, which is a heavy gun of 240 mm caliber, and the armor-piercing shells fired can directly penetrate the armor of the Japanese warships, and the plank transport ships of the Qing army are not opponents."

Lin Fei raised his voice and said: "So our Penghu defense line is impregnable, we will hold it for a while, if Japan does not move, we will mobilize warships and counterattack the Qing court." ”

Everyone nodded yes, and Lin Fei said, "Okay, this meeting will be here first, let's dismiss the meeting, and go back to prepare for the big war." ”

Everyone left one after another, and began to prepare for the coming battle.

This day is November 28, 16 years, this day, the Qing Empire officially declared war on the Chinese Empire, it stands to reason that this should be a major event enough to engrave the history of the world, but this matter, but did not leave a striking mark in the history of the world, because what happened later, too magnificent, treacherous, Lin Fei of Dayu City, Emperor Guangxu and Empress Dowager Cixi of Beijing, Emperor Meiji of Tokyo, Prime Minister of Salisbury of London, President François Philippe of Paris, are not able to control, So much so that later generations of world history experts did not have the heart to write more about the declaration of war of the Qing Empire.
