Drying salt requires a lot of space. The famous Tainan Qigu Salt Farm in history covered an area of 2,700 hectares in its heyday.

Therefore, it is impossible to send a large army to protect the salt works, and the harassment method of the natives who sneak around to hunt for a head is the most headache for the elite defenders with few men and strong firepower.

The most hopeful thing for the crossing forces now is that the opponent will come to the nest, even if Zheng Zhilong will kill the whole army tomorrow, then this side will be able to destroy this dynasty and make a great name and three years of peace.

However, the natives can't do this, the natives play harassment, and this is disgusting. The two societies of Madou and Xiao Yong, north of Xingang Creek, have been limited by poverty and have not come to Dayuan Island to pay homage to the Lord of God. Whether it is to send a message to the people of Xingang Society, or to inform the little brother who came to sell deerskin to go back and bring a message, all of them are sunk into the sea, this is called strategic pretending to be dead, and the hostility is already obvious.

Since you can't hold it, you can only attack it.

I didn't do it before because the north of Xingang Creek has not yet been put on the development agenda. In addition, unlike in history, neither the Chihkan New District nor the Kiln Industrial Base were harassed by the local natives during the construction - the Xingang Society and the Da Mu Descending Society organized overnight raids and killed the Dutch soldiers who kept vigil when the city was built in Chikan.

This creates an illusion for the traversers: the natives understand the importance and can be reasonable.

As a result, after being slapped in the face by the Madou natives, he reacted: The way he reasoned was probably wrong, and the previous method still worked......

The purpose of today's meeting is to put an end to the discussion and directly determine whether to fight or not. As for how to fight, Han Xiaobo, who was appointed as the "commander-in-chief of the Tainan region" on the spot, easily came up with a plan that had already been prepared.

The traversal is different from the colonists. The colonists came to plunder, so they had no scruples, and if they couldn't stand on their feet, it would be a big deal to leave and return home.

And the people who have crossed have no country to go back to, and to some extent, they can't afford to lose. Therefore, Hangzhou is their homeland, and the Dayuan is now the same homeland, an industrial civilization that wants to take root here, and the way of doing things must be different from that of the Dutch.

The Dutch ruled Taiwan historically, using the standard three-light policy: whenever they amassed troops and resources, the Red Fur would gather the indigenous vassals of the Xingang Society to serve as auxiliaries and guides, and then dispatch more than 300 soldiers at a time to burn the target tribe to the ground in order to have a deterrent effect.

In the process, the Dutch didn't really care whether the other side resisted or not: most of the time, by the time the Dutch-Turkish army arrived, the local natives had already run out. However, the monks can't run the temple, the indigenous people on the island are half fishing, hunting and half farming, not nomads, villages, food, grain fields, these properties have no long legs.

The people of Madou in history have beaten the Dutch by one vote.

On June 13, 1629, the Madou people drowned 62 Dutch soldiers who came to fight the autumn wind in the Madou River by diligently sending their backpacks and muskets first, and then carrying the red-haired old man across the river.

In real history, it has been six years since the Dutch had resolved a series of external troubles, such as Hamada Yabei, and waited for them to free up their hands to take revenge.

In November 1635, the fourth prefect of the Great Commander, Puttmans, led 475 soldiers, plus nearly 2,000 auxiliaries from Xingang and Damujisha, launched a three-light assault on the Madou area.

Not a single indigenous person was left behind, children, women and the elderly were killed, and 3,000 indigenous houses were burned down.

On the first day of the war, the Madou people resisted, but when a tribe of 3,000 people was killed by 260 middle-aged warriors, the tribe collapsed.

A month later, the Madou people who had fled into the mountains could not stand it, so they all came out and surrendered, offering betel nuts and saplings to show their submission...... The mountains are not so easy to mix, there is no food, not to mention, the Gaoshan tribe kills refugees without sparing.

That's how the Dutch reasoned. Since the recent Xingang Society, almost all the indigenous tribes have suffered from the three-light policy of the red hairs: the large army kills them, the natives run away, burn the houses and grain fields, the natives surrender, and the nearby tribes see the tragic situation and quickly surrender - this has become a standard procedure, different indigenous tribes choose the same way to deal with it every time, and the Dutch are happy to play the same tricks.

......

The method of governance that kills and buries is not what a certain force that claims to be high and high wants.

To tell the truth, a certain evil force is actually very willing to start from birth, old age, sickness and death, and take care of the life of the indigenous people in one stop, and the civil affairs are also lacking! The plywood box is painted with black lacquer and dares to sell it for 2000 as ebony, but the actual conditions do not allow it.

The first is that there are not enough immigrants to assimilate indigenous people.

Whether it is called Huazi or homeless people in Hangzhou, the comrades of the local Hangzhou station cannot get these people to Moyunguan like a herd of cattle, this is a secret transportation process.

The fleet is also struggling: there are already three fleets running around the Taiwan-Zhejiang route, whether it is equipment or the pilot ship that crosses the backbone of the public, it has been stretched to the limit.

The cargo throughput capacity of Tangzhuang is also tight, especially the grain - the big people can't produce their own grain now, and the Hangzhou station also has a process of buying grain on a large scale, if it is too crazy, it will definitely attract the attention of the government and the big grain merchants, and behind the big grain merchants, there is no doubt that the big gentry, the small ones generally can't afford to mix in the grain business.

All this limited the number of Ming laborers who came to Dayuan, and by the New Year of 1628, after two and a half months of occupation of Dayuan, 2,100 Ming immigrants were in place, 150 tons of rice reserves, and a number of other miscellaneous goods; This is already a god speed, thanks to a lot of preparation work done in the early stage, otherwise there would be no current situation at all.

Originally, it was planned to leave the "dilution quota" to the people of Xingang Society. The newly opened Chihkan Primary School has already received 10 boarding primary school students in Xingang, as well as 5 small families of three people specially selected by the crossing group, all of whom are placed in the school district next to the primary school. The traversal is ready to set an example and educate the people, so that the natives can feel the beauty of the new life, and then gently use the population advantage to slowly digest the Xingang people.

Now this process was abruptly interrupted.

Due to the disobedience of Madou and Xiao Yong to the king, the war was imminent, so the planned "slow digestion of the natives" became a tough "one-pot end sandwich raw rice digestion mode", which was very laborious, and if you had a bad appetite, it was easy to indigestion. But now that the arrow is on the bow, I have to send it, and I can only take one step at a time.

Everything goes back to the original point: if you want to develop the north bank of Xingang Creek, you must first level the natives, and if you want to settle the natives, you have to be blackmailed by the military boss - drones. The newly opened president of the army immediately put the long-missed drone on the list of munitions.
