Daming Haiku

Chapter 180 Blackmail of the Dutch

Now after hearing the news, Zhu Yifeng breathed a long sigh of relief. In their opinion, the sea wolf obviously retreated from difficulties and was not ready to defend Nanri Island. In this way, as long as they could take down Nanri Island with a thunderbolt and expel the sea wolf from the coast of Xinghuafu, Fuzhou. Then, even if it is a great success, as for the sea wolf retreating to Taiyuan Island, that's another saying.

As long as they can recover Nanri Island and the coastal area of Pingjing, then they can report victory like the court. Even if the Wei Party wants to disadvantage him, with this great achievement, I'm afraid the Wei Party has no way to defeat him in a short time.

Although Zhu Yifeng is mentally prepared to be defeated by Wei Zhongxian's party and lose his position, since he can do such a governor, no one wants to easily lose this official. If he can work for a period of time, it is better to work for a period of time!

At this time, the news came from Quanzhou that the large splint fleet of the Red-haired people they had been waiting for for a long time finally arrived. On November 2, a red-haired fleet of seven large splint ships finally appeared in Quanzhou Bay and sailed into Quanzhou Bay.

This news made Zhu Yifeng overjoyed. Although he is not interested in red-haired people and can even be said to be very hostile to them. In recent years, red-haired people have been harassed along the coast of Fujian, especially Zhangquan and other places. Zhu Yifeng had previously served as Fujian's political envoy to participate in politics and investigate.

During the period when Nanjuyi was in charge of Fujian, Zhu Yifeng also participated in the use of troops in Penghu, and naturally he would not have a good impression on the red-haired people.

But this time he tried his best to deal with the sea wolf. Although he has tried his best to expand the strength of the navy in this year, he was still worried about the strength of the officers and navy. In addition, the sea wolf was indeed strong, so he listened to the advice of the staff and decided to ask the red-haired man to assist the government to suppress the sea wolf.

Although he was not willing to do so, he finally took this move for the sake of safety. In his opinion, it is a matter to use theft. Although this matter may attract criticism, as long as he can take Nanri Island, then other things are easy to say.

Now in his eyes, the biggest enemy is the sea wolf. These red-haired people have withdrawn from Penghu and gained a foothold on Taiwan Member Island. He can't take care of this matter.

Although the officials of the Ming Dynasty have the awareness of defending the territory, few people have considered the expansion of territory. Taiwan Island itself has never been included in the territory of the Ming Dynasty. Now that the red-haired people have gone to Taiwan Island, they are not willing to care too much. With the idea that more is better than less, they adopt the ostrich policy and let The red-haired man occupied the big man.

Now the sea wolf also occupies two places on Taiwan Island, and will naturally be regarded as a threat by the red-haired people. Although Zhu Yifeng does not know that the enemy's enemy is a friend, he is still very clear about the Taoism here. Therefore, when the staff proposed that they could ask the red-haired people to help suppress the sea wolves this time, Zhu Yifeng planned to let the red-haired man and the sea wolf dog bite the dog, so he made such a decision.

It is out of fear of sea wolves. Although Yu Zhigao asked for war many times before half a month ago and asked to start suppressing the sea wolves on Nanri Island, Zhu Yifeng was afraid of something wrong and never allowed Yu Zigao to act without authorization and had to wait for his order to move troops.

However, after meeting the commander of the Red-haired fleet, Yu Zhigao found that the red-haired man was too arrogant to pay attention to their Ming army's warships at all. After arriving here, Wait directly proposed that their Red-haired fleet could assist the Daming Marine Division. , but he will not listen to Yu Zhigao's dispatch.

Wate asked Yu Zhigao to provide him with various supplies, and asked for independent action not to be mixed with the navy fleet of the officers, but only the fleet responsible for escorting the officers to Nanri Island. As for the red-haired fleet, it was all under his own command. Otherwise, he would not participate in this operation.

Yu Zhigao was furious after hearing this. Even if he wanted to scold Waite, he was discouraged by Tian Youren, who came to serve as a supervisor.

Although Tian Youren did not have a solid job, he was Zhu Yifeng's staff, known as a praise painting, and Yu Zhigao had to give Tian Youren face.

After listening to Waite's request, Tian Youren stopped Yu Zhigao, who was about to lose his temper, and told Yu Zhigao that this matter was not easy to get angry. Once the conversation collapsed, it would not be good for the next cooperation, and they did not know the performance of the red-haired ships, so Wett's request was not necessarily unacceptable.

As long as the red-haired people agree to escort the fleet to Nanri Island, then this matter is easy to discuss. Now what Zhu Yifeng and Tian Youren are most worried about is not that they can't take Nanri Island, but that they will be ambushed or intercepted by the sea wolf fleet during the voyage. The last time Zhu Qin was careless, the Nanri Water Village was destroyed, and most of them were supposed to The warship preparing to transport and escort the army division was destroyed by sea wolves, which eventually made it impossible to continue to attack Nanri Island.

This time, Zhu Yifeng learned a lesson and paid special attention to the safety during the voyage. As long as the Red-haired man is willing to escort the fleet to Nanri Island, in case the sea wolf's fleet is ambushed, as long as there is a red-haired man's fleet, it is estimated that nothing will happen. The red-haired man's ship can easily defeat the sea wolf's fleet. The point is the consensus of all official literature and martial arts.

So since this Waite proposed that he would command his fleet by himself, it is understandable that he can fully agree to his request. As for the various supplies he requested, this matter itself is a request from others, and it is also a matter of course that others make some demands.

After listening to Tian Youren's persuasion, Yu Zhigao suppressed his anger and thought about this truth, so he had to agree to Waite's condition and hand over the list of supplies he needed.

And Yu Zhigao will not produce these expenses by himself. Although Zhu Yifeng has allocated a considerable amount of materials to him, these materials are still not enough in his opinion, and the amount of these materials that Weiter proposed to request is also very large, and there are even many unrelevant things, such as raw silk and porcelain. , tea and so on, how can these things themselves be regarded as supplies? It's simply blackmail! I just want to take the opportunity to make a fortune.

Therefore, Yu Zhigao would not find a way to get these materials for Waite, so he simply threw them all to Xu Xinsu, so that Xu Xinsu could find a way to meet these requirements put forward by Weiter.

Xu Xinsu now knocked out his teeth and swallowed in his stomach. Originally, he was very unhappy that the government would collude with the Dutch to suppress the sea wolves this time, but he was forced to be a middleman to contact the Dutch.
