Daming pirates

Lin Yiyang doesn't mind that Yu Xiaotian has someone replace him in Tamsui City, because the position of Tamsui City Civil Affairs Manager is not what he wants. The reason why he wants to stay in Tamsui City for a while is actually to show his ability.

Ability, now that his ability has been recognized by Yu Xiaotian, there is no need for him to continue to work in Tamsui City.

And his real goal is to stay with Yu Xiaotian and watch how far Yu Xiaotian goes. If Yu Xiaotian can really achieve a great cause as he thinks, then he will not just be a...

It’s as simple as a county magistrate.

Therefore, when he heard that Yu Xiaotian had transferred him back to Nanyue Island, Lin Yiyang happily accepted the offer and immediately handed over the matter at hand and rushed back to Nanyue Island by boat.

After listening to Lin Yiyang's work report, Yu Xiaotian put away a note about the gains and losses in civil affairs that Lin Yiyang had compiled in Tamsui Village during this period, and reviewed it carefully when he had time.

He took Lin Yiyang back to his study. After briefly greeting Lin Yiyang's physical life, he told Lin Yiyang some of the things he had recently considered, focusing on his relationship with the official and Zheng Yiguan.

on matters.

After hearing this, Lin Yiyang thought about it for a while and replied to Xiaotian: "This time the dispute between the head of the family and the government should have come to an end with the dismissal of Fujian Governor Zhu Qinxiang.

As for how Zhu Yifeng, the newly appointed governor of Zhejiang, will treat us, we still need to wait and see. However, recently, my subordinates thought that we should stop and sell to this Zhu Yifeng to save face.

Zhu Yifeng was a local official in Fujian before. He is familiar with local affairs in Fujian. He should know us better than Prime Minister Zhu Qin. Therefore, his subordinates believe that after Prime Minister Zhu Qin has learned from the past, Zhu Yifeng will not easily return.

Make things difficult for us.

But after all, this time the leader destroyed dozens of navy warships in one fell swoop, bombarded Puxi and Chongwu, and raided dozens of villages along the coast. The imperial court had already dismissed Prime Minister Zhu Qin for this.

, then it definitely won’t just let it go.

Now that Zhu Yifeng has taken over as the governor of Fujian, he has to give an explanation to the court. It depends on how the head of the family views this matter next.

My subordinates personally estimate that Zhu Yifeng is currently riding a tiger and will definitely use troops against Nanyue Island, but it will only happen sooner or later! If the boss is unwilling to give up Nanyue Island, then he will have no choice but to continue to be an enemy of the government.

If you have a big fight with them, you will see the real results.

But if the boss doesn’t want to get out of hand with the government, he might as well consider taking a step back from Nanyue Island and letting the government troops land on the island. At worst, we can just come back afterwards. In this way, Zhu Yifeng can give

An explanation from the imperial court.

I just don’t know if the master is willing to do this, so I can only provide these two suggestions to the master!"

Yu Xiaotian frowned, nodded and said: "This is reasonable. Now that the matter has come to this, there are only two options! But the matter is not urgent at the moment. I will think about it again! After all, Zhu Yifeng has just taken office.

, I have now ordered everyone to stop the activities of harassing the shore, which can be regarded as giving him face. Moreover, within a short period of time, Fujian will not be able to mobilize enough troops and warships to attack Nanyue Island. At the earliest, they will also

It will take more than half a year to prepare, so we still have time to think about it slowly!

What is important right now is the matter between Yan Siqi and Zheng Yiguan. Zheng Yiguan has taken over the task of his adoptive father Li Dan, and his strength suddenly increased sharply, far exceeding Yan Siqi's current strength!

As the saying goes, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. Yan Siqi, the big shopkeeper, is actually not as strong as his brothers. Naturally, Zheng Yiguan and his men will no longer listen to Yan Siqi's words. Judging from the news we have learned, the two of them are already

Face and heart are not in harmony, and I don’t know what Zheng Yiguan will do next. This is what I am worried about.

Now we have controlled most of the sea surface along the coast of Fujian, and Zheng Yiguan will definitely use Zhangquan and other places in Fujian as his territory. Next, he will definitely compete with Chu Cailao and us for territory. There is no doubt about this!

So how we should treat Zheng Yiguan next is something we must decide immediately."

Lin Yiyang thought for a while and then nodded and said: "What the boss said makes sense. This Zheng Yiguan is an extraordinary person. If he had not taken over Li Dan's plate, it would have been fine, but now he suddenly took over such a big plate.

We must find a way to find food for his men, then he will definitely cause big storms and waves in the coastal areas of Fujian or Guangdong. We should be on guard in advance, and it is also right!

In the eyes of my subordinates, Zheng Yiguan’s sudden increase in strength this time actually has both advantages and disadvantages for us!”

Yu Xiaotian immediately asked: "Oh? What are the advantages? What are the disadvantages?"

After Lin Yiyang took a sip of water, he said to Xiaotian: "Master, Yan Siqi has become wary of us after we defeated Mr. Chu Cai in the past year, and when we were negotiating with Mr. Chu Cai,

He secretly arranged with us to free up the sea area around Quanzhou, giving him the opportunity to intervene in the sea area around Quanzhou.

In the past six months, Yan Siqi has also done this. He has been active on the sea near Quanzhou and even entered and exited Meizhou Bay.

Now the sudden rise of Zheng Yiguan makes Yan Siqi suddenly weaker than Zheng Yiguan. Then it will only be a matter of time for them to turn against each other. With Yan Siqi's strength, he is definitely no longer Zheng Yiguan's opponent. So if I were

Yan Siqi's words, then the best way for me right now is to find a backer first and use it to fight against Zheng Yiguan.

In this way, Yan Siqi will have the opportunity to continue to establish a foothold on Taiyuan Island. Otherwise, Yan Siqi will be sealed in the Bengang area by Zheng Yiguan. Once he is cut off from the mainland, he can only sit back and wait for collapse.

!

Right now, the only ones who can cooperate with Yan Siqi are us and Mr. Chu Cai, but Yan Siqi should know very well which one is stronger and which one is weaker.

With Zheng Yiguan's current strength, I am afraid that even Chu Cai Lao may not be his opponent and can compete with him. Yan Siqi should also be able to understand this, so if he chooses, as long as he does not act stupidly,

Then he will find the big boss to cooperate. Even if he and Zheng Yiguan turn against each other and Zheng Yiguan wants to cut off his connection with Lu, as long as we are here, he can still communicate with Lu through us.

So if it goes as expected, Yan Siqi should come to our door in the near future, surrender to the boss, and ask the boss to help him!

Therefore, this matter is beneficial to us. As long as we join forces with Yan Siqi, we can cause a lot of trouble for Zheng Yiguan. Zheng Yiguan cannot focus solely on competing with us for territory, so this is

The advantage of this thing!

But the disadvantage is of course that Zheng Yiguan's sudden increase in strength has given us an additional opponent. Although we are very strong now, Zheng Yiguan has many contacts and his strength is not weaker than ours, even in terms of the number of ships and the number of troops.

It’s much better than us!

This has created a big trouble for us, and I am afraid that Zheng Yiguan will become our biggest enemy in the future!"

Yu Xiaotian lit a cigarette, took a few puffs and put it out in a glass ashtray. He looked at Lin Yiyang calmly and said, "Then what if we continue to have good relations with Zheng Yiguan? I

Just give him the sea surface in this area of ​​Quanzhou, will this be of any benefit to us?"

Lin Yiyang saw that Yu Xiaotian was considering him, so he immediately smiled and shook his head and said: "The master is just kidding! If Zheng Yiguan had done it alone before, it would have been possible, but now he has more than ten thousand people under his command.

, there are hundreds of ships, and he can no longer be satisfied with making small fuss.

Most of the coastal areas of Fujian are now controlled by the big boss. Sooner or later, he will definitely seize the territory from the big boss. Even if the big boss shows favor to him, it is impossible for Zheng Yiguan not to become an enemy of the big boss! So!

The boss doesn’t have to think about this at all!”

After hearing this, Yu Xiaotian also laughed and said: "It makes sense! In that case, let him come! Such a fulfilling life!

Yu was lucky enough to be born in this world, and to embark on this road, fighting against heaven, earth, and people can only have endless fun. God has treated me well, and it is clear that he will not let me rest!..."

After hearing what Yu Xiaotian said, Lin Yiyang found it very interesting and immediately started laughing too.

Sure enough, within two days of Yu Xiaotian's conversation with Lin Yiyang, Yan Siqi sent a subordinate to Nanyue Island to ask for a meeting with Yu Xiaotian.

Yu Xiaotian asked Yan Siqi who sent him this time, and the people below reported that it was a man named Chen Xun from Yan Siqi who was sent to Nanyue Island this time.

Yu Xiaotian recalled it and had some impression of this Chen Xun. This man was a close confidant of Yan Siqi. He was one of the twenty-eight brothers who formed an alliance when Yan Siqi came to Taiwan to establish himself. He was quite trusted by Yan Siqi. Yu Xiaotian twice

When I went to Yan Siqi's territory, I saw that Yan Siqi always brought this Chen Xun with him, which shows that this person is the person Yan Siqi trusts the most.

This time when Chen Xun came over, it was basically certain that he was sent by Yan Siqi to find him for help, so Yu Xiaotian nodded and ordered Chen Xun to be brought in.

"Long time no see! It turns out that Third Brother Chen is here. I'm sorry to hear that, but I hope Third Brother Chen will bear with me!" When Yu Xiaotian saw Chen Xun walking into his living room, he put down the book he was holding.

He stood up and greeted Chen Xun with a smile on his face and clasped his fists.

Chen Xun is only in his thirties, with a swarthy face. You can tell at a glance that he is a man who has been working at sea all year round. He is also relatively tall for this era. Even though the weather is cold now, he still rolls up his sleeves as usual.
