Chapter 148 Choices of the Parties
Although the government knew that they would seal up Maoshengyuan for a long time, they did not take action immediately. Many people secretly sent messages to Li Yi, asking Li Yi to quickly clean up and transfer their property. It was not until many days later that they sent s to Maoshengyuan to start the seizure, but when these officials arrived at Mao After Shengyuan, the warehouse here has long been empty, leaving only a small number of bulky and difficult-to-transfer goods, and there are not many valuable things at all.
As for Mao Shengyuan's book, there were only a few hundred taels of silver left. Even Li Yi, who swaggered the sedan chair left Fuzhou City in the afternoon before they started, disappearing from everyone's sight, which is equivalent to nothing but some pavings.
When Zhu Yifeng heard the news, he was so angry that he knew that someone had revealed the news in advance, which made Mao Shengyuan transfer his property in a hurry. Li Yi also ran away. In this way, he originally thought that when he could seal up Maoshengyuan, he would have no money, which could be used as a reward for meritorious soldiers or pensions. The funds of the casualties, but as a result, there was almost nothing to be recovered, leaving only some stores and properties that could not be run away. Even if these things are confiscated and sold, they are not worth much, and if officials in various places deduct part of it, there is nothing left.
So Zhu Yifeng can only say that he is very discouraged by such a result, but there is nothing he can do, and now that the matter has been made public, then he can no longer hide it. He can only start preparing to suppress the sea wolves on Nanri Island with great fanfare.
However, this process involves a lot of people, including Zheng Yiguan and Yan Siqi. Of course, Chu Cailao is also involved, and even the Dutch are involved.
Zheng Yiguan is the enemy of the sea wolf. In addition, he is very familiar with Fujian. Such news can't be hidden from him. Not long after the Fujian government made the decision to suppress the sea wolf, Zheng Yiguan received the news and immediately became excited. He was ready to take the opportunity to come to the sea wolf. Guys, help the government clean up this surname Yu fiercely.
And Yan Siqi immediately made a decision not to stand on the opposite side of Yu Xiaotian, because now, after a period of dating with the sea wolf, he has completely felt the strength of the sea wolf. He is not optimistic about the government's attack on the sea wolf this time. Now if he stands in the wrong team, once the sea wolf hits again this time After defeating the officers and soldiers, he will definitely not be spared at that time.
So at this time, he must make a right choice, otherwise he may not be able to survive. Now he himself knows very well that Yan Siqi is actually not a completely independent pirate group. To some extent, he has become a vassal of the sea wolf and left Yu Xiaotian. Now, under the pressure of Zheng Yiguan, it is difficult for him to survive.
So Yan Siqi chose to stand on the side of the sea wolf without hesitation, immediately reported the news he got to Yu Xiaotian, and immediately stated that if the sea wolf needed it, he was willing to lead his troops to Nanri Island to help the sea wolf.
Yu Xiaotian immediately accepted his kindness and thanked him, but did not agree to let him participate in this conflict. He just asked Yan Siqi to help him look at Zheng Yiguan, even to help the sea wolf.
As for Chu Cai Lao's mood after hearing the news, he was very complicated. There was a hatred between him and the sea wolf, but now he has to rely on the sea wolf. At this time, when such a thing happened, he didn't know how to choose to stand in line for a moment.
When the government wanted to suppress Nanri Island for the first time last year, he was really excited for a while, and even prepared to take advantage of the fight between the officers and the sea wolves. No matter whether the sea wolf wins or fails, it may eventually consume a lot. He intends to take advantage of the sea wolf's weakness to take revenge, at least Xinghuafu and Fuzhou. The coastal area is in his hands.
But the result, the sea wolf did not give the officers and soldiers a chance to suppress it at all. While the officers and soldiers were still gathering, they ran to beat the officers and sailors. In the end, the elimination of the sea wolf could only die, which made him happy for a while, and also made him realize the real power of the sea wolf.
This year, under the pressure of Zheng Yiguan, he had to bow to the sea wolf and repair his relationship with Yu Xiaotian. Finally, he won Yu Xiaotian's "support" and sold him a lot of cannons, which made him take the opportunity to beat Zheng Yiguan and make a lot of benefits in the Haicheng area.
This made him see the power of the sea wolf. In addition, during this period, he often sent Ma Xiang to Nanri Island to deal with the sea wolves. Ma Xiang also saw the real strength of the sea wolf on Nanri Island, which made him know that he was not the opponent of the sea wolf at all. Now the government has to suppress the sea wolf, so that he suddenly I feel that I have gone back and gone.
In his heart, he hates Xiaotian very much. If it is not Yu Xiaotian, he is still a bigwig on the sea. This status is difficult for ordinary people to shake, but since he was beaten by the sea wolf and suffered heavy losses, his position in this area has plummeted in the sea, and now he has become a second-rate pirate group.
So it is impossible for Chu Cailao not to hate Xiaotian, but Chu Cailao also knows the power of the sea wolf, and he also saw from the news revealed by the government this time that the government had not really thought of completely destroying the sea wolf.
The government's plan is actually very simple, that is, to squeeze the sea wolf out of Nanri Island. As long as they recover Nanri Island, then they can sing and play the victory. As for the destruction of the sea wolf, the government itself is actually very clear that it is difficult for them to do this. With the current military strength of Fujian, it is difficult for them to completely control the sea. The wolf was exterminated.
What's more, the sea wolf is not the only nest of Nanri Island. The sea wolf has now built a freshwater city in the north of Taiyuan Island, and the number of immigrants has reached tens of thousands. In fact, the freshwater city is now the most important nest of sea wolves, and Nanri Island has now retired to the status of sea wolves. Line position.
For the time being, Yu Xiaotian still regards Nanri Island as his old camp. In fact, it is only because Nanri Island is closer to the land, and it is also very convenient for him to control the surrounding sea and fishing grounds. Even if he abandons Nanri Island now, it is not a big blow to the sea wolf, and the foundation of the sea wolf will not be shaken.
So in Chu Cai's opinion, although on the surface, the government seems to be very popular and confident this time, in fact, they are only limited to suppress, not to kill the sea wolves.
And raw silk is also what the red-haired people want most. In addition to getting some raw silk in Japan, the most important supplier is mainland China, and it is precisely the raw silk trade in Zhejiang, Fujian, most of the supply is controlled by Xu Xinsu, who is in the eyes of red-haired people. It has a pivotal position.
