Chapter 512: The Struggle for Sea Power (4)
On the pier, seeing that some of the Pasi people knew Chinese, You Degao was also happy.
"Hahaha, this general is the Governor of the Navy under the Luzon General's Mansion, You Degao, what is the name of this head, how did you learn Chinese?"
"My name is Samukun, there are often Han people coming and going here in the chicken coop, and there are also many Han people in Tamsui, and I can learn it as soon as I come and go."
"Oh~~"
You Degao, Zhao Jingyong and others suddenly realized.
In fact, this is also their loneliness, and this era and the following decades are the peak period when Han Chinese began to immigrate to Taiwan.
Especially since Zheng Zhilong proposed to Xiong Wencan to immigrate to Taiwan in the third year of Chongzhen, there are now more than 50,000 Han people on the whole island of Taiwan, and exchanges with the aborigines are inevitable.
It is in this process that the indigenous peoples such as the Pasi people slowly become acquainted.
You Degao coughed lightly and pointed to the giant ship behind him.
"Samukuntou, please tell you and other clansmen, I, the Luzon General's Mansion, led the heavenly army to conquer Taiwan, and the entire territory of this island should be under the rule of my General's Mansion."
"You and other people originally came from the mainland, and they are also descendants of Yan and Huang, and they have the same root and origin as me, and you were forced by the Spaniards before, and from now on you should belong to my general's mansion and enjoy a peaceful world."
In order to subdue the natives, the school department under the Government Council can be said to have struggled with their brains, and even the natives on Luzon Island have been installed by them with a Chinese ancestor, not to mention Taiwan.
Without waiting for Samukun to speak, You Degao waved his hand and motioned for the soldiers to carry dozens of stones of grain beside them.
"Unlike the Spaniards, who will only enslave you and force you to hand over your grain, my Luzon junta will give you all this grain as long as you are willing to submit."
"Really?"
Samukun's dark and thin face was full of joy, because the Spaniards had cut off the supply of supplies to Luzon, they had already robbed several Pasi villages of food several times, and now several communities of the Passi tribe were all in a food shortage.
You Degao's face was solemn, "Pontus opened his mouth, naturally it is difficult to chase the horse, in addition, if you have any grudges under the enslavement of the Spaniards, Pontus will also make decisions for you." ”
"Do you see those people?" , You Degao waved his finger at the Spaniards who were squatting on the ground in a ball under the walls of Chicken Coop City, "Go and call your people over, as long as you dare to identify them, we will dare to punish them on the spot." ”
"Long live the general, we are willing to take refuge", Samukun and the other six female leaders immediately knelt down excitedly when they heard this, and the two on the left even cried directly.
"Don't blame the general, they all have their clansmen who died at the hands of these red-haired monsters, so they can't control it."
"Don't worry, I'll know."
You Degao sighed and comforted.
Su Jin and Chen Yiding knew that it was easy to take down Taiwan, but it was difficult to defend it, so You Degao repeatedly ordered him before he set off, and he should focus on appeasing and recruiting Taiwan's aborigines, and attack them secondarily.
Now that Luzon's industry and agriculture have improved, with the cooperation of high-yield grain varieties and primitive machinery selected by Liu Ximing, Luzon's productivity is enough to ensure the food problem of the people on the island of Taiwan, and naturally there is no need to be too harsh on the aborigines.
A few miles away from the Spanish fort, the Basas built several agglomeration villages out of thatch and mud.
The Basai communities of the Jinbaoli Society and the Big Chicken Coop Society were waiting in horror for their leaders to return, but they did not expect that they would be accompanied by hundreds of Han soldiers carrying food.
"My people, it was the Han general who came to attack the red-haired monster, and he promised that as long as we were willing to take refuge in him, he would take revenge on the red-haired monster for us, and he gave us all this grain directly, what do you say we should do?"
As a primitive matriarchal society, although the head of the Basi people has the absolute right to speak, in the face of this kind of life-and-death event of the whole society, Samukun also needs to ask for everyone's opinions.
At this time, the soldiers of the Fubo Division put the grain they were carrying next to Samukun, and when they saw the white rice in the bamboo basket, the eyes of a group of Bassians straightened.
"Do you think these natives will surrender?"
The weather in June was very hot, and You Degao had already entered the chicken coop city to repair, Zhao Jingyong took off his upper and outer parts, drinking wine from where the Spaniards didn't know where to go, while chatting with You Degao.
"How do I know", You Degao also sat and tasted wine only in the inner sticker, "I hope they get to know each other a little, Su Xiang has already said that the order passed by the second brother must be in our hands in Taiwan, and no Taiwan poison must be allowed to exist." ”
"What does this Taiwan poison mean, do you know?"
As he spoke, You Degao was a little puzzled, and turned his head to look at Zhao Jingyong.
Zhao Jingyong said nonsense with a serious face: "I guess it means that the feng shui here is not good, and the womb is poisonous." ”
"Hahaha", You Degao burst into laughter.
"But speaking of which, Taipei is not a good place, with continuous rain all year round and wet miasma, my plan is to only build a small city here, and the key is to defeat the Zheng family and the Dutch, and occupy Taichung and Tainan."
"I don't have a problem with that."
While the two were chatting, a guard hurried in.
"The governor, the Ideologus, the people of Basai have surrendered."
"Hahaha, good", You Degao and Zhao Jingyong glanced at each other, and both of them laughed.
It is best not to fight naturally, and save some effort to deal with the Zheng family and the Dutch.
On the eighth day of the sixth month, in the Spanish chicken coop city, in the presence of more than 1,000 Basbians, You Degao presided over a trial meeting.
The subjects of the trial were, of course, the Spaniards, mainly Paromino, and the more than 300 native soldiers they recruited from the Philippines.
"It's not fair," struggled the bound Paromino, "you promised to give us a fair deal." ”
"I don't, it's not me, don't talk nonsense."
Jiang Baolin, who was in charge of the surrender, saw Palomino looking at him with fiery eyes, and hurriedly came to throw the pot three times.
"We only promised that we would give you a fair trial, but we didn't promise anything else."
"But these barbarians were not your citizens at all, and you have no right to judge us!"
"These barbarians are ignorant and ignorant, what is the difference between these barbarians and beasts, and the Luzon junta should give us a reasonable reason to judge us, otherwise God will curse you." ”
"Presumptuous!"
You Degao was shocked and slapped heavily on the desk, his face full of anger.
"The general of my family has long said that this is East Asia, your God is useless here, there is only one master here, and that is the Emperor of China."
"Besides, who dares to say that they are barbarians, as long as they are on the side of my Huaxia, then they naturally enjoy all the rights that human civilization should enjoy, you invade my Huaxia territory, and still kill here, how can the governor of Pontus judge you."
"There is ambiguity in what you said, what about the natives who are not on our Huaxia side?"
Zhao Jingyong muttered to You Degao with a strange expression.
"Roll the calf"
You Degao scolded him back with a smile.
He then turned his head to look at Samukun and the others with a look of hope, and slapped the wood in his hand again.
"The Governor has sentenced to death forty-seven men, including Paromino, in accordance with the provisions of the criminal law of the Luzon General's Office, and the rest shall be sentenced to thirty to fifty lashes for their crimes, and shall be assigned ten years of hard labor under the General's Office."
"No, it's an unfair verdict!"
Botro and the others erupted into a desperate cry and were dragged down amid the cheers and bows of the Barsians such as Samukun.
The sound of "bang" and "bang" gunshots came, and Samukun and several other leaders knelt down and kowtowed happily.
"The general is just and strict, and our people are willing to submit, and from now on we will always be the people of Luzon."
You Degao walked down the case with a happy face and helped several leaders up, "The general of my family has made a clear order, but he will make the indigenous people submit and not force them to change their customs, and the Han and Turkish families will coexist peacefully and treat them equally." ”
"Thank you for your understanding!"
Hearing the translation of their own leader, the Pasas suddenly boiled.
Having just experienced the harsh rule of the Spaniards, the aborigines instantly felt a sense of respect compared to the Luzon General's Palace.
For the aborigines of the island of Taiwan, Liu Ximing's plan is to use Huairou means to slowly assimilate.
The Chinese civilization has a strong ability to influence, as long as the Han and the soil live together, for a maximum of ten years, these aborigines will definitely be assimilated into a member of the Han people.
This policy was followed by the governors and governors who ruled Taiwan, so much so that hundreds of years later, Taiwan's aborigines still thanked Liu Ximing and called him the Holy Lord.
