0492 Message of the armistice

After a morning of scourging, there was nothing useful left on the entire new island. Leaving only a bunch of shivering pirates. Before leaving, Liu Pei had all the captured ships dragged out of the bay and burned all before setting sail.

Liu Pei knew that he must have hurt Zheng Zhilong this time. And at the same time, he lost face while his strength was damaged! However, Liu Pei is confident that he will win the battle in the future. Because before Liu Pei left, Liu Jiangde's subordinates had interrogated each prisoner in detail. And those captives naturally knew everything in order to save their lives. So Liu Pei has a deep understanding of the affairs of Zheng Zhilong's side. Starting today, he can target Zheng Zhilong and his allies more specifically.

After Liu Pei went back this time, he shrunk the fleet for a month. At this time when he was shrinking, he just avoided Zheng Zhilong's crazy revenge.

Soon after Liu Pei left Xindao, a ship with supplies arrived on Xindao. As a result, they only saw a group of crying pirates! Therefore, the supply ship reported the tragic situation of Shinjima to Zheng Zhilong as soon as possible. Zheng Zhilong, who learned what happened from the captured pirates, was furious! He drove his men and allies to search the seas again and again, but found nothing.

A month later, Liu Pei sent the fleet out again. However, this time, Liu Pei changed the way the fleet attacked again. The fleet was still a group of three ships, but this time the two groups fought together. In this way, an absolute advantage in numbers can be formed.

However, Liu Pei also solemnly warned all the captains to adhere to the principle of maritime guerrilla warfare. You can only strike when you are absolutely sure. It's really not good, I'd rather run away than do it indiscriminately! Guerrilla warfare must not be turned into a decisive battle.

Liu Pei's goal is to completely drag down Zheng Zhilong financially. After all, although Zheng Zhilong has many subordinates, the expenses are also large. As long as he does not trade in the seas, he will lose a lot of money. When one day he can't afford to maintain a huge expenditure, either he will take the initiative to sue for peace, or Zheng Zhilong will be completely pushed off the throne of the dragon head by his subordinates.

However, this time Liu Pei did not go to the sea in person, because the spring ploughing on land had already begun. This is a key matter related to whether everyone under Liu Pei's rule can have enough to eat. Therefore, Liu Pei has to press the formation in person.

In the past year, Liu Peituntian's policy has been well implemented and has achieved good results. In the early days, the tenants of Tuntian had already had enough harvests. Moreover, Liu Pei also bought surplus grain from them at normal prices. With money in their hands, the tenants began to purchase various products produced in Liu Pei's workshop in large quantities, which stimulated the expansion of the workshop!

At the same time, the officials under Liu Pei gradually adapted to Liu Pei's management

The rational approach and management thinking began to change rapidly to a qualified administrative official. This made Liu Pei's rule gradually embark on a virtuous circle.

Therefore, although Liu Pei is still losing money this year, compared with the previous year, the magnitude of the loss has been greatly reduced. Moreover, the bookkeepers optimistically estimate that at the end of this year, although Liu Pei will not have a surplus on his books, he will have considerable grain reserves.

The latter point is what makes Liu Pei the happiest! For this day and age, grain is undoubtedly the real hard currency. After all, there is an old saying that when you have food in your hands, you don't panic in your heart.

Liu Pei found a lot of problems after inspecting many places, and also found a lot of outstanding talents. Liu Pei is naturally the reward that should be rewarded, and the punishment that should be punished. As a result, a few more people lost their heads, and several people were rewarded with positions and money. Frightened by Liu Pei's actions, he naturally made great progress under his rule. It is a pity that the reputation of the intelligence bureau has fallen quite a bit among officials. However, Liu Pei and Liu Jiang didn't care about this.

On this day, Liu Pei was communicating with an old farmer in the sky when he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves in the distance. Liu Pei looked up and saw that three people were riding horses approaching.

The guards around Liu Pei immediately greeted them and stopped the three people. Moments later, the three men were brought closer by the guards. They handed Liu Pei a letter.

Liu Pei opened the letter and browsed it quickly, and couldn't help but burst out laughing! This letter was sent by Wu Yizhou. The letter told Liu Pei that the battle was about to end.

It turned out that after Liu Pei released the fleet again, Wu Yizhou and the others didn't find any Zheng Zhilong's fleet for a long time. This surprised them. In order to obtain specific information, Wu Yizhou ordered the hijacking of a sea ship to inquire about the news.

When Wu Yizhou commanded the fleet to intercept it, the sea ship lowered its sails very cooperatively when it saw their flag from a distance. Therefore, Wu Yizhou also politely ordered not to surrender the other party's weapons, and invited the other party's ship to come over for questioning.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the other party's boat head got on the boat, he asked, "Are you the Red Eyed Dragon King's subordinates?" ”

Wu Yizhou pointed to the skull flag and said, "Of course we are the subordinates of the big boss!" ”

He smiled and said, "That's good!" Under the request of Li Ye, send a message to the Red-eyed Dragon King, then please convey it. ”

As soon as Wu Yizhou heard that he was speaking for Li Dan, he didn't dare to underestimate it. So he immediately got up and said, "If Master Li has any orders, just say it." ”

The head of the boat saw Wu Yizhou get up and felt very satisfied. said with a smile: "Li Ye said, there is a lot of trouble at sea during this time, and everyone is not doing business well. Such a point

Not good either! He will restrain Zheng Longtou's side from doing anything more, but the Red-eyed Dragon King's side can't be unforgiving anymore! It's better to leave this matter at that. If you have anything to say after dealing with it, you can go to Nagasaki in person, or send someone to Nagasaki to talk to Zheng Longtou. Li Ye will guarantee the personal safety of the person who goes to negotiate. ”

Wu Yizhou was very surprised when he heard it! Unexpectedly, this matter involved Li Dan. You must know that Liu Peike just said that Li Dan's death is approaching, and I am afraid that it will not be able to pass this year! But as the so-called tiger falls, it can't fall! Li Dan's name on the sea is still no one dares to provoke at this time! Although Li Dan is obviously biased towards Zheng Zhilong, if Li Dan really speaks, I am afraid that this war can only end here.

Wu Yizhou thought about it carefully, and said suspiciously: "I want to ask, how did Master Li know that I would stop you so that you could pass on the word?" ”

The head of the boat laughed and said, "Where would Li Ye be so calculating!" Li Ye sent someone to send a message to all the ships, as long as anyone encounters the subordinates of the Red-eyed Dragon King, he will say this. It's just that I was lucky to run into you first! ”

Wu Yizhou listened to this, and his doubts were greatly reduced. ruled out the idea that this was a conspiracy by Zheng Zhilong. If Li Dan had spoken, it would have been no problem! After all, Li Dan's prestige is not only famous, but also one of the cornerstones of integrity!

So Wu Yizhou arched his hand and said: "I see! I understand! But if it's convenient for you, when you see Li Ye, you will say that I can't be the master of this matter, and I want to inform my family. However, I will cease all combat operations until a concrete order is received from my boss. ”

The ship's bow laughed twice and said, "Then it's not my business!" After all, it will be a long time before I return to Nagasaki. But if I were to you, just intercept a few ships bound for Nagasaki and let them take the talk. They can't wait for a chance to meet Li Ye! ”

Wu Yizhou nodded and said, "Thank you for your advice, I wish you a smooth journey!" ”

After Wu Yizhou let the ship leave, he immediately ordered the fleet to intercept a few more ships to inquire about the news. As a result, all the sea ships returning from Nagasaki brought the news. Wu Yizhou was sure that it was not a trap, and immediately rushed to the meeting place to inform all the ships to stop hostile activities. At the same time, he sent someone to the shore to deliver a letter to Liu Pei. That's where the letter came from.

Liu Pei thought for a long time after reading the letter. In the end, he decided to follow Li Dan's arrangement. However, this does not mean that he and Zheng Zhilong will not have another war. Li Dan's arrangement is nothing more than to delay this war until later! When he dies, the war will start again. But at that time, I am afraid that no one will be able to stop a big war from happening!
