Despite the limitations of the HP-3 howitzer's performance, it still caused a lot of damage to the Japanese army, because the Japanese position was full of rocks, and the debris from the explosion was extremely lethal.

The Japanese commanders on the No. 2 and No. 3 heights saw that their subordinates were killed and wounded by the Chinese army, and hurriedly ordered their subordinates to hide in the mountains and forests, but in this way, they could not attack the people on the opposite side.

The Japanese commander realized the danger of running out of food, and immediately decided to rush down the hill and attack the low mountain on the opposite side at night, when the light was dim and the artillery could not see the target.

That night, the Japanese troops on the No. 2 and No. 3 heights sneaked down the heights and launched a sneak attack on Lin Fei's troops, but the result was naturally heavy losses and nothing.

The next day, there was a food shortage in the defenders of No. 2 Heights, and the Japanese soldiers had to pull out the roots of the grass to feed their stomachs and peel the bark of trees to satisfy their hunger.

The defenders of the No. 2 Heights then asked Nogi Noshinori for help, and Nogi Noshinori immediately ordered the defenders of the No. 4, No. 5 and No. 6 Heights to attack the Chinese army on the low heights, but the low heights were also easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the Japanese launched more than a dozen attacks, and even the captain personally went into battle, but he couldn't beat them.

On the third day, more than a dozen wounded on the No. 2 Heights starved to death, and the other soldiers were also so hungry that they could only drink mountain spring water to satisfy their hunger.

The jungle road in the mountains is narrow, and the large grain trucks can't go at all, so they can only rely on people to carry food, although each person does not carry much food, but it is enough for the people on the No. 2 high ground to satisfy their hunger.

However, when the grain transport team arrived in the mountains and forests, it was attacked, and it turned out that Lin Fei sent tribal warriors who were familiar with mountain and jungle operations, and the grain transport team was not familiar with jungle warfare and was all wiped out in the jungle.

On the evening of the third day, the commander of the No. 2 Heights couldn't hold on anymore and sent a retreat request to Nogi Noshinori, who could only agree, and the defenders of the No. 2 Heights took advantage of the night to go down the mountain, but they were discovered by the Huaxia army in the process of descending the mountain, and the Huaxia army immediately launched a siege, and the exhausted Japanese army was annihilated.

In the evening of the same day, Lin Fei ordered the 1st Brigade of the 1st Division to continue to advance deep into the Japanese army, cutting off the connection between the No. 3 Heights and the rear, and the tactics were the same as when attacking the No. 2 Heights.

On the morning of the fourth day, in the Japanese headquarters, Nogi Noshinori was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, pacing in the house constantly, Yamaguchi Poly Sita sat on the side, staring at the map for a long time without saying a word, both of them knew very well that Lin Fei had laid down the No. 2 highland by cutting off the grain road, and now he had cut off the No. 3 highland, and in the long run, Lin Fei would inevitably take down all the highlands in Miaoli, and Miaoli City would be in danger at that time.

Because the city wall cannot stop Lin Fei, Miaoli is the last barrier between Taipei and Keelung, if Lin Fei defeats Miaoli, then Taipei and Keelung will completely fall into Lin Fei's grasp, and at that time, Taiwan that the Great Japanese Empire has worked so hard to build will be completely lost...

Although Nogi Noshinori and Yamaguchi Hiroshi were both aware of the severity of the situation, they were at a loss for what to do, and at this moment, a staff officer suddenly came in and said, "Report to the general, the governor has sent an envoy. ”

As early as May 1895, Japan had announced the establishment of the Taiwan Governor-General's Office, and the governor was Kayama Shiki, Nogi Noshinori heard that Kayama Shikiri had sent an envoy, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he said: "Could it be that the Governor General has thought of a way to solve our predicament?" Hurry up and bring the envoy in. ”

The staff officer turned around and went out, and a middle-aged man in a straight suit followed the staff officer in, and Nogi Noshinori smiled when he saw the middle-aged man, stretched out his hand to shake him, and said, "Mr. Yamayuki, I didn't expect it to be you." ”

It turned out that this envoy was the mountain line Gao He who went to Lin Fei's camp with Yu Ningshuang to deceive the surrender, and in the battle of the entire Guards Division, the mountain line Gao He disguised himself as an old mountain man, mixed out of the encirclement, and returned to Taipei.

Shanxing Gao He smiled slightly and said, "That's right, Nogi-kun, I haven't seen you for a long time, I came this time to go to Lin Fei's camp and meet Lin Fei." ”

Nogi Noshinori hurriedly asked, "You want to meet Lin Fei?" See what he does? ”

Yamayo Takaga smiled confidently and said, "Of course, it's to turn the tide." ”

"Turning the tide?" Nogi Noshinori was stunned suddenly, "How can you turn the tide?" ”

Yamayo Takaga said with a smile: "Now that the Second Division and the Great Japanese Empire are at a disadvantage in Taiwan, I think you agree with this. ”

Although Nogi Noshinori didn't want to admit it, but in the face of the facts, he couldn't help but admit it, he nodded lightly and said, "That's right, we are indeed at a disadvantage. ”

Yamayo Takaga smirked, "What I want to do is to redeem the disadvantage and bring the advantage back to the Great Japanese Empire." ”

Nogi Noshinori asked in a skeptical tone, "Do you have such a solution?" Lin Fei is not a fool, the Huaxia Empire is now very victorious, can you convince him? ”

Shanxing Gaohe laughed and said, "It's useless to talk more, please hurry up and send me to Lin Fei's army." ”

Nogi Noshinori didn't ask much, and sent someone to escort Yamayo Takaga to Lin Fei's army, Lin Fei was very surprised when he heard that a Japanese envoy had come, and asked his subordinates to take him into his tent.

Lin Fei and Shanxing Gaohe had met, so as soon as Lin Fei saw Shanxing Gaohe, he exclaimed: "Why are you?" ”

Shanxing Gao He smiled heartily and said, "Mr. Lin Fei, it's been a long time, is Xiaoshuang okay?" ”

Lin Fei didn't expect him to mention the jade condensation frost first, he was stunned for a moment, nodded slightly, and said with a soft smile: "I have known Xiaoshuang for more than five years, don't look at her usually cold, but she is an excellent girl, if only I had a daughter like her." ”

Lin Fei frowned and said, "Mr. Shan Xing Gaohe, are you here to talk about family life?" ”

Yamayo Takaga shook his head and smiled: "Of course not, I'm here to save you..."

"Help me?" Lin Fei sneered, "Your country's navy has been severely damaged by me and lost its combat effectiveness, and the army is in decline, I don't know who we are to save whom?" ”

Shan Xing Gao He sighed, seeing Lin Fei's eyes changed suddenly, that kind of look seemed to be Lin Fei was an ignorant child, Lin Fei felt a cloud of anger in his heart, but he couldn't bear it.

At this time, Shanxing Gaohe took out a copy of the document from his briefcase, held it in front of Lin Fei with both hands, and said, "Look at this." ”

Lin Fei gave the staff officer on the side a look, the staff officer came over and took Wen Jiàn and handed it to Lin Fei's hand, Lin Fei asked while opening Wen Jiàn, "What is this?" ”

Shan Xing Gao He said with a smile: "A conversation recorded by our secret agents in Beijing, the two sides of the conversation are Li Hongzhang, the prime minister, minister of national affairs, and Yuan Shikai, the commander of the Dingwu army. ”

"Dingwu Army" is a very famous army in the history of the late Qing Dynasty, it is a new army formed by the Qing court to imitate the German army, and many of the Beiyang warlords who later controlled China for decades were born here, and the commander of this army is Yuan Shikai.

During the First Sino-Japanese War, there were many Japanese eyeliners around the high-ranking officials of the Qing court, some of these people were Japanese, and some were Qing people, they sent a large number of secrets to the Japanese, and even during the negotiations in Shimonoseki, the telegram codes exchanged between Li Hongzhang and the high-level Qing court were known to the Japanese, and all the hole cards of the Qing country were mastered by the Japanese.

Lin Fei knew these histories, so it was not surprising that Shan Xing Gao He could get such a record, he opened the text, swept it, and was taken aback after reading it, and his face changed involuntarily.

Yamayo Takaga smiled and said, "How is it?" Mr. Lin Fei, you're surprised, right? From this conversation, we can see that the Qing court intends to abolish the "Japan-Qing Peace Treaty", which is what you call the "Treaty of Shimonoseki", once the treaty is abolished, Taiwan will still be Qing in legal theory, I don't know how your Chinese empire plans to deal with Taiwan? ”

Lin Fei didn't speak for a while, and Shanxing Gaohe smiled proudly and said: "Your Huaxia Empire is now facing a dilemma, if you return Taiwan, the Chinese Empire's efforts for Taiwan will be in vain; If you don't return Taiwan, you will have to tear your face with the Qing court, and I believe you don't want to see this scene. ”

Lin Fei said coldly, "Why do you think I don't want to see this scene? ”

Shanxing Gaohe smiled: "You have been saying that you and the Qing people have the same ancestry, the same culture, the same species, if you go to war with the Qing court, it will be fraternal killing, fratricide, are you willing?" ”

Lin Fei said proudly: "Although I don't want to do that, but when it comes to that point, I won't be soft." Lin Fei's tone changed, and he said angrily: "The matter between me and Qingguo is our own affairs of the descendants of Yan and Huang, no matter what, it is not your turn to take care of the Japanese?" You're in charge of your own island, aren't you? ”

Yamayuki Takaga shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, we don't care about Japan, but what about the British?" And what about the Germans? What about the French, the Russians? They don't care? If you really tear your face with the Qing court, and the Qing court discusses with the Westerners to borrow troops, do you think the Westerners will send troops? When there were bandits, the Westerners organized a foreign gun team, you are not afraid of the Qing army, but you can't help but be afraid of the foreigners, right? ”

"Bandits" was the Qing court's name for the Taiping Rebellion, and in this peasant movement, Westerners did organize foreign gun teams to help suppress it.

Lin Fei said coldly: "You use 'bandits' as an example, are you rebelling against me like a bandit?" ”

Shanxing Gaohe said with a smile: "In the Qing court, it seems that you and the bandits are the same, didn't Zhou Zhenbang pass on an edict to you?" In the oracle, you are asked to make meritorious contributions, but can't you explain the problem? ”
