Daming Haiku

Chapter 35 Running

Since Zheng Yiguan returned from Japan this time, the relationship with Yan Siqi has gradually become tense. Considering the safety issue, he took the initiative to move away from the village and moved to a village near the shore.

As Yan Siqi continued to emigrate from the land to cultivate, the area of land reclamation became larger and larger, and the original village could no longer meet their needs. Therefore, Yan Siqi divided the immigrants into many small villages to meet the needs of immigrants. At the same time, they also allowed each small village to have a certain self-guarantor, and stationed some Their subordinates manage them and are also responsible for protecting their safety.

Therefore, Zheng Yiguan proposed to move to Xiaozhai, and Yan Siqi did not object, which could also reduce the conflict between Zheng Yiguan and his men.

Therefore, Zheng Yiguan's current stockade is a relatively independent stockade, mainly living with some of his subordinates and some immigrants here.

Moreover, Zheng Yiguan's stockade is relatively close to the sea and does not need to enter and leave the stupid port. During this period, he also built a temporary dock and trestle at the seaside for his ships to rely on and replenish.

In a word, Zheng Yiguan is now in a relatively independent state in Bengang, basically not being dispatched by Yan Siqi. In order to avoid a head-on conflict with Zheng Yiguan, Yan Siqi did not interfere too much in his actions and let him control his subordinates.

This has made many people very dissatisfied, but Yan Siqi knows that although he knows that it is not a way to go on like this, he can only do so. If it goes on for such a long time, it is only a matter of time for his men to gradually fall apart.

Although Zheng Yiguan is relatively independent, he has always paid more attention to Yan Siqi's movements, bribed a group of Yan Siqi's subordinates, and helped him stare at Yan Siqi's activities.

Through these bribery men, he also inquired about Yan Siqi's purchase of cannons from Yu Xiaotian and inquired about the time when Yan Siqi delivered the silver to the sea wolf of Nanri Island, but he still neglected that he did not thoroughly find out all the details, so that he could not know in advance. Yan Siqi had guarded him. When he sent someone to transport silver, he had informed Yu Xiaotian in advance and asked Yu Xiaotian to send someone to pick up the silver ship he sent.

Originally, Zheng Yiguan thought that his arrangement was seamless after sending Zheng python to ambush Chen Zhongji's silver ship. Next, he only waited to harvest these tens of thousands of taels of silver, and then watched Yan Siqi angry and turned against him.

But when he was secretly proud, he suddenly received a news that made him feel like a thunderstorm, that is, Zheng Python was defeated. Not only could he not seize Yan Siqi's silver ship, but he revealed his identity and met an inexplicable fleet, which stirred up their good deeds.

Zheng python has realized that their deeds have been exposed, and he was afraid that the next thing would be uncontrollable, so he sent a ship back to Bengang first, reported the news to Zheng Yiguan, and asked Zheng Yiguan to leave here quickly in case Chen Zhongji came back to report after getting out of trouble, resulting in Yan Siqi's sudden trouble with Zheng Yiguan.

Zheng Yiguan, who was originally full of joy and waiting to pick peaches, was confused as soon as he heard it. He hurriedly asked the person who reported the identity of the fleet that suddenly appeared, but because the ship left a little earlier and could not see the flag of the fleet that came clearly, he could not tell what the identity of the ship was. He just said that the fleet came suddenly Moreover, it is more likely that the coming is not good, and the enemy is not the friend.

And on his way back, the people on the boat faintly heard the sound of cannons behind him, and the sound of cannons continued for a long time, and they didn't know what happened later.

After listening to this, Zheng Yiguan's heart suddenly sank, got up and walked back and forth in the room, thinking rapidly, analyzing the possible consequences of this incident.

He couldn't guess what the sudden appearance of the fleet was, but from the fragmentary news brought back by this report, he felt very bad and very uneasy. From these scattered information, he could basically judge that Zheng Python must have ruined the matter this time.

This sudden appearance of the fleet has ruined his good deeds and is likely to have a fierce conflict with Zheng Python. So who is this fleet? After thinking about it, he felt a chill in his heart, because on the coast of Fujian, including the Taiwan Strait, the only strongest pirates today are sea wolves, and other relatively large pirate groups are only him, Yan Siqi and Chu Cai.

It is impossible for Chu Cai's fleet to be active in this area at this time, and most of Yan Siqi's men have been taken back to this area during this period, but there is no news that Yan Siqi's ships have a large number of ships going to sea.

So the only remaining possibility is the sea wolf! At this time, only the sea wolf fleet may appear in this area, and Yan Siqi and the sea wolf traded secretly this time, so it is likely that...

When Zheng Yiguan thought of this, a cold sweat came out of his sweat pores. He turned around and immediately shouted, "Go down the order, everyone should immediately clean up and board the ship and leave here within an hour!" ......”

In Zheng Yiguan's stockade, they suddenly fell into chaos. These Zheng Yiguan's men didn't know what had happened. Why were they suddenly fine, but Zheng Yiguan seemed to be crazy, making them immediately pack up their things and evacuate here. Some people wanted to ask Zheng Yiguan what had happened. Why do you leave in such a hurry?

However, anyone who asked was scolded back by Zheng Yiguan, so that they should inquire less. They just need to follow his instructions, prepare quickly and leave here immediately.

So these Zheng Yiguan's men gathered here were like bombing, rushing around the village, cleaning up their various valuables and softness, and packing them to the dock for loading.

At the same time, Zheng Yiguan also ordered to control all a small number of Yan Siqi's men in the village, tied them with ropes, threw them into a room, and even blocked their mouths to prevent them from making a sound, let alone run to the village to inform the news.

Because of the sudden incident, Zheng Yiguan stored a lot of valuables here, and it was too late to clean up and carry them to the shore dock for loading.

So his men asked Zheng Yiguan to give them some time, give them more time, pack these things up, and load them on the ship before it's too late to leave.

However, Zheng Yiguan did not agree at all and ordered them to pack up the most valuable things. In addition, the relatively light things were loaded on the ship. As for those thicker things and some less valuable things, they were directly left here. In short, within an hour, everyone must board the ship and anchor and leave here.

In fact, Zheng Yiguan did not leave a lot of manpower here. Except for hundreds of people staying in the village, most of the people and ships were sent by him to the coastal activities around Zhangquan during this period. With his current strength here, he is definitely not as strong as Yan Siqi's strength. If Yan If Siqi chooses to completely turn against him at this time, he can only stay here for a day or two at most, and can't wait for his men to gather here to rescue him.

So at this time, Zheng Yiguan made a sharp decision and did not hesitate to do anything. He would rather abandon some goods than delay here. After a period of chaos in the stockade, Zheng Yiguan took hundreds of his men here to their small wharf and boarded six or seven boats parked here with the ship. As for the goods, Yang Fan immediately anchored and drove away from the shore, leaving a group of confused immigrants on the shore. I don't know what kind of crazy Zheng Dang, who usually looks popular, is today.

It was not until Zheng Yiguan boarded the ship and left the shore that someone reported the news to the general village. After Yan Siqi learned that Yan Siqi heard it, he was also very surprised. I don't know why Zheng Yiguan was crazy today. Why did he suddenly board the ship with all his men and left here, and many The goods were moved to the ship as if they were going to move.

He didn't even believe the news. He asked twice in a row to make sure that he had heard it wrong. At first, he was a little happy and felt that Zheng Yiguan's scourge finally left by himself. It was better for him to leave. He would save trouble for this man in the future.

But on second thought, this is not scientific! Zheng Yiguan has no reason to suddenly leave here in a hurry at this time! Did he get into any trouble?

Even if he wants to leave, at least Zheng Yiguan and he have not torn their faces. Even if Zheng Yiguan has something urgent to leave here, he can completely say hello to him before leaving. He won't stop him from letting him go?

Yan Siqi was puzzled, so he quickly greeted some of his men and rushed to the stockade where Zheng Yiguan was located.

When he entered Zheng Yiguan's stockade, he found that it was indeed empty. There was a messy area in the stockade that was lost everywhere. Many of them were actually quite valuable, but they were also left here by Zheng Yiguan. Obviously, he didn't want it.

So Yan Siqi didn't understand. He quickly sent someone to search in the village to see if he could find any clues.

After a while of tossing, they found a room containing more than a dozen of Yan Siqi's men. These people were all tied tightly and even their mouths were blocked.

So Yan Siqi's men quickly released these dozen people and sent them to Yan Siqi.

Yan Siqi immediately asked them what had happened, but these people were also confused. They just said that Zheng Yiguan suddenly ordered someone to control them. After tying them one by one, he stuffed their mouths, and then threw them in a room, and then it was chaotic outside. It didn't take long. Zheng Yiguan took people to their small dock and boarded the boat and left here. They didn't know exactly what happened.

Yan Siqi was really confused by Zheng Yiguan and felt a little uneasy, because early this morning, he sent Chen Zhongji and three ships, loaded 40,000 taels of silver, and shipped them to Nanri Island. In the afternoon, Zheng Yiguan took his men. However, he abandoned this place and left without saying goodbye.

So will there be any connection between the two? Thinking of this, Yan Siqi broke out in a cold sweat and immediately ordered people to rush to the dock, send more ships to sea, and search in the direction of Nanri Island to see if there was anything unusual at sea.

So Yan Siqi's men in the whole area of Bengang became busy this time. Ships soon began to pull anchor and set sail out of Bengang, headed for the sea, then raised sails and accelerated to the area of Nanri Island in the northwest of Bengang...
