Chapter 18 Mitigation
After listening to Liu Yidao's words, Yu Xiaotian slapped heavily on the table, making the tea bowls on the table jump up high.
"Damn! I had long expected that after hearing the news, Hun Jianglong would not easily let go of this opportunity. Sure enough, he still couldn't help it! This is to force us out of Fuzhou and rob our territory!" Yu Xiaotian said angrily.
"Of course! This time you took us to make Zhang Hu. Such a good opportunity, not to mention the Jianglong, even if it were me, I would not miss this opportunity!" Liu Yidao also said angrily, grabbed the wine pot and poured a bowl of wine for himself, raised his neck and drank it.
Yu Xiaotian took a deep breath, calmed down, sat down again, and waved to Liu Wang to get a few dishes to entertain Liu Yidao.
And Liu Yidao waved his hand and said, "Don't bother! I didn't come here to eat and drink! Now on the Fuzhou side, but you have the final say, and the Jianglong in front of us has reached out to the side of Dalian Island. We all want to ask Yu Dadang what are you going to do!"
Yu Xiaotian rolled his eyes and said, what should he do? It must be salad! My aunt can't stand this matter! He definitely can't just let the Jianglong's handle go deeper and further south. Otherwise, he will not be able to live in the Fuzhou area in the future.
The problem that asked the shark to help Zhang Hu face before, but now it is put in front of him so quickly. Fight?
Thinking of this, Yu Xiaotian himself immediately rejected this idea, because he had just assigned hundreds of brothers today. On the first day, he let them go to sea to run in. Now he took these guys to fight with the river dragon fire. The result must be a flea on the bald man's head, which is obvious!
With his current strength, even with the helpers such as Liu Yidao and the one-eyed dragon, he may not be the opponent of the mixed river dragon. What's more, he has not run out with the people and ships at the time. He brazenly fights against the mixed river dragon, and he will definitely not take advantage of it. If he doesn't do it well, he will completely fail this time.
It's hard to get this Nanri Island. If he loses this battle, maybe he will immediately spit out this fat meat and find a place to hide with his tail between his tail.
But can it work without fighting? It doesn't seem to work. Now his colleagues in Fuzhou are looking at him. If he doesn't fight, how can he convince the public? Maybe under the pressure of the mixed river dragon, these people will be forced to turn to the mixed river dragon.
This problem lies in front of Xiaotian, which really makes Yu Xiaotian a little difficult. If the mixed river dragon gives him an extra month and two months, this problem is not a problem. He can take these good men to kill the north to fight against the mixed river dragon, at least interrupting the mixed river. Long had an arm and let him honestly shrink back to his part of Funing.
At present, what he lacks most is time. This is the time when he is most weak, which really makes Yu Xiaotian a little entangled.
After Liu Yidao asked, he looked at Yu Xiaotian's expression and didn't hear Yu Xiaotian's words for a long time, so he said impatiently, "Yu, what should I do? Do you want to say something!"
By this time, Yu Xiaotian had gradually calmed down and sighed, "To be honest, I'm afraid Yu will disappoint you this time!"
Liu Yidao was anxious as soon as he heard this and immediately stood up and asked, "What is this?" Does the head of Yu look at Chen's hand and dare not care about it?
Yu Xiaotian raised his hand and said, "Brother Liu, please sit down and listen to Yu speak slowly!"
Liu Yidao had to sit back in his chair again and wait for Yu Xiaotian to talk to him in detail.
The two talked very late at Yu Xiaotian's residence, and Liu Yidao was sent by Yu Xiaotian to the post office in the stockade to rest, and sent someone to send some wine and food to Liu Yidao's ship.
When he returned to his residence, he found that Liu Laoliu, Wang Hong, Fang An, Ma Xiao and others had not rested and gathered outside Yu Xiaotian's residence.
Yu Xiaotian shook his head and smiled and said, "You haven't slept so late. It seems that you have heard the wind! Well, since you don't doze off, let's go in and talk! ......”
When the light began to light up, Wang Hong and others left Yu Xiaotian's residence. Yu Xiaotian walked out of the door, stretched his waist hard, looked at the eastern sky and smiled bitterly.
It turned out that he wanted to do something, but it was so difficult. Now although he has overturned the Shark Gang, he has almost been stuck in his teeth before he has eaten a few bites of the fruit of victory.
Seeing that it was almost dawn, Yu Xiaotian was too lazy to sleep again. He stretched his muscles and bones in the yard, practiced a knife, and took a cold bath in the bath behind the courtyard. After dressing neatly, he took several soldiers to the post house of the village again.
Liu Yidao did not often stay in the wolf cave on Nanri Island. After getting up early, he met Yu Xiaotian and said goodbye to Yu Xiaotian and walked to the dock.
On the dock, Liu Yidao looked at Yu Xiaotian and said, "Yu Danger, this is what you said, just one month! In a month, it will definitely look good for the river dragon! I believe you, so I will go back and tell them that I will wait for you for a month. If there is no movement in the head of the house a month later, then we can't be blamed for not thinking about the previous love!"
Yu Xiaotian nodded and said, "Brother Liu, please rest assured that Yu has always spoken a lot. It's only a month! Brother Liu also asked to bring a message to the one-eyed dragons. If Yu hasn't moved a month later, you can leave it for yourself. Even if he turned around to deal with Yu, Yu will have no complaints!"
Liu Yidao nodded and said nothing more. He hugged Xiaotian, turned around and boarded the boat and left.
This time, Liu Yidao came over and told Yu Xiaotian something. Some time ago, after the battle of Nangantang, although the mixed river dragon narrowly won, it firmly controlled the area of the Matsu Islands and extended its power to the mouth of the Minjiang River, which stopped for a long time.
But recently, the mixed river dragon must have received the news that the shark gang was popular with his neighbors. Zhang Hu was also finished. He felt that this was a rare opportunity, so he became restless again.
A few days ago, the two boats of the mixed river dragon even suddenly appeared near Dalian Island and robbed a boat north of Dalian Island. Such a thing was actually to declare war on his colleagues in Fuzhou, which made it clear that the mixed river dragon was going south again and continue to seize the territory of Fuzhou.
Liu Yidao and one-eyed dragon and others were very worried when they learned the news, so after they put it together, they asked Liu Yidao to come to Yu Xiaotian to inform him and let Yu Xiaotian, the boss of the current Fuzhou pirates, how to deal with the idea.
Yu Xiaotian and Liu Yidao agreed for a month to ignore the mixed river dragon and let him toss first. The sea of Fuzhou is very large, and the mixed river dragon can't grab the territory for a while. What's more, without his solid bridgehead in this area, it is impossible for him to concentrate all his strength to come to this area.
Yu Xiaotian only needs a month to prepare. A month later, he promised Liu Yidao and others that he would definitely look good.
After sending Liu Yidao away, Yu Xiaotian made the news public and informed everyone around the sea wolf to let them know that the peaceful life has not yet arrived, and the mixed river dragon is still staring at them. If they don't practice hard, they will wait to be bullied by the door by the mixed river dragon.
As soon as the news came out, the sea wolf department was suddenly in an uproar, and the people who had a lazy mind before also gave up this idea.
The captains of each ship rubbed their hands one by one and began to practice day and night on the sea near Nanri Island with their subordinates on their own ships.
Yu Xiaotian did not care about the money. He sent Li Gouzi to Dalian Island while purchasing a large amount of food from the Li family. In addition, he also sent people to inform the fishing villages around the coast and asked them to provide Nanri Island with fresh and dried fish and other things. He even sent people to Fuqing County to purchase a batch of fruits and shipped them back to Nanri Island.
Master Xing was also sent out to let Han Xian be his entourage. In fact, he monitored his actions and brought a batch of silver tickets to contact those former government officials.
For these subordinates who went to sea to practice, Yu Xiaotian ordered Li Gouzi not to regret the money and provide delicious food to the ship, so that the sea wolf members could eat and drink well. In this way, these sea wolves who were stimulated were even more eager to practice at sea.
Yu Xiaotian even sent everyone a red envelope ranging from one or two to five taels, which is nominally a special reward for their recent hard work. In this way, the sea wolves are much more motivated, especially the old members of the new shark gang. They feel that they have never been treated so well before. This time, Yu Xiaotian was the right choice, and people's hearts gradually became completely stabilized.
Yu Xiaotian knew that many things he imagined could not be realized before solving the problem of the mixed river dragon. As long as the mixed river dragon does not shrink back to Funing, not only the reclamation on the island cannot continue, but also the recruitment of immigrants from the land does not need to be considered. Those businessmen will not come to Nanri Island to open according to his proposal. Business stack.
So he simply put aside all the plans he had considered to advance and began to prepare for the war with all his strength.
The Li family obviously understood that he was related to Yu Xiaotian's interests, so after learning that Hun Jianglong stretched out his hand to the coast of Fuzhou again, they spared no effort to help Yu Xiaotian prepare for war.
The Li family changed their previous hidden style and simply came to follow the list of goods required by Xiaotian, enough to transport two ships to Yu Xiaotian. They not only provided a batch of saltpeter sulfur for Yu Xiaotian again, but also sent good willow carbon to Yu Xiaotian.
In addition, it also provided Yu Xiaotian with thousands of catties of fine iron produced in Guangdong and broken iron from Fujian, as well as projectiles cast by people on land, as well as cold weapons such as knives and guns, which provided relatively sufficient protection for Yu Xiaotian's preparation.
Yu Xiaotian did not treat the Li family badly. According to the price offered by the Li family, he paid the Li family a full amount of money, which made several merchants who were also in Fuzhou look jealous. They simply took the initiative to send people to Nanri Island to contact the business and ask Yu Xiaotian what else he needed, and they were also willing to supply the sea wolf.
In this way, Sai Weng was not blessed. Yu Xiaotian's large-scale purchase of goods unexpectedly opened several channels of procurement at the same time.
It is because when Xiaotian took his men to practice day and night on the sea around Nanri Island, he unexpectedly got a rare good news.
