Chapter 450: Diaoyu Island

Lisa can't do it at all, and Li Xuezhu's level is even worse, so they can only watch the battle.

In the Ming Dynasty, it was a seat of Go, and when it came up, it first put four chess pieces on the white diagonal corner, and then the white flag went first. Therefore, Wang Yue's choice of layout moves is relatively limited, and the layout of Diagonal Star, coupled with the rules of the repayment period, is destined to be very fierce.

Wang Yue is a double Feiyan, there are a lot of tricks in this formula, and Wang Yue knows several. In the past, in the teahouse, Wang Yue was a rookie and was abused. Now, it's really cool to find a little pleasure of abusing vegetables. However, the opponent Liu Ru was not happy, he kept frowning and silent, and he continued to take long exams, and he fell behind in half a day, and this chess game is really tangled.

Li Xuezhu smiled and poured tea and water, as if she was cheering for Wang Yue, although her level was not good, she could still understand it. Lisa was bored, she had heard of the rules of this game called Go, but unfortunately she was not interested at all.

Just when Liu Ru was abused, he didn't want it, and he was just broken off a large piece of chess by Wang Yue.

Zhuang Suwen, commander of the Nanyang Detachment of the Tiance Army Navy, hurriedly walked over and said, "Report to the commander, those small islands have been found." ”

"Oh?" Wang Yue immediately stood up and came to the side of the ship to look ahead, and not far in front of the left, several islands, large and small, were clearly visible under the clear sky.

"Order the fleet to come over, I'm going to go up and have a look." Wang Yue's excitement was beyond words.

Liu Ru sighed, just as he was about to lose again, Wang Yue ran better.

The landing craft slowly landed, and Wang Yue landed on the high place of the island and looked around.

The bedrock on the five islets is bare, with protruding peaks. The soil layer has a thin base. Lack of fresh water. Plants such as camellia, palm, purslane, etc., can be found everywhere, and cacti are everywhere.

In order to adapt to the natural environment of the strong windy land at sea, these plants grow short and stout, which is very different from the land environment. Seagulls hover in the air, nesting on the islands and feeding on the reef's fish, unchanging from year to year, until the silence was broken by the arrival of the Celestial Navy's naval fleet.

Diaoyu Island, the pearl of the East China Sea, will be haunted by many people in later generations!

In 1895, the Japanese invaders such as King Nohisa of Kita-Shirakawa Palace, King Sadachi of Fushimi Palace, Shiki Kayama, Noshinori Nogi and other robbers passed near the Diaoyu Islands on their routes to Taiwan, and she witnessed the bloody crime of this gang of robbers and jackals forcibly occupying Taiwan.

In 1945, the sin chief in the Tokyo devil's nest announced his surrender with the so-called "Divine Crane Yuyin", and the arrogant sun flag fell gloomily, and the Diaoyu Islands were supposed to return to the arms of the Chinese mother, but they were included in the Ryukyu Islands by the U.S. military and accepted trusteeship.

For well-known reasons, the Chinese government did not protest, so much so that in 1970 the United States decided to hand her over to Japan along with the Ryukyu Islands.

In the following decades, Diaoyu Island, the pearl of the East China Sea, made countless hot-blooded sons and daughters on both sides of the strait worried, and even more heroes sacrificed their lives for her!

It is a pity that the two sides of the strait are opposed, the situation in the East China Sea is changing, the island is turbulent, and the brothers are on the wall, and it is difficult to resist foreign insults.

"We are a string of pearls from the East China Sea, Ryukyu is my brother, and I am Taiwan. I still have the heroic soul of the Zheng family in my chest, and the red blood of Jingzhong stains my family heritage. Mother, the scorching summer is going to kill me, give me an order, and I can still fight against the city. Mother, I want to come back, Mother! ”

Wen Yiduo's "Song of the Seven Sons" full of tears, one of which is Taiwan, naturally contains the voice of the Diaoyu Islands. Since 1895, a hundred years of ups and downs, countless people with lofty ideals have gone forward and succeeded, but she still has not been able to completely and truly return to her mother's arms, how can it not make people sigh!

The small Diaoyu Island, you have witnessed the rise and fall of the nation, and you are a wordless monument in the East China Sea!

Hundreds of years later, the small fishing boats of the Hoyushi staggered through the waves set off by the giant ships of the Japan Coast Guard. Now, the naval fleet of the Tiance Army can reach the islands and reefs, and is even about to open the door to Japan.

Zhuang Suwen, who followed ashore, could naturally see that Wang Yue was in a agitated mood at the moment, and asked puzzledly: "This is Diaoyu Island?" There are only a few small islands, which can be seen everywhere on the sea, so why should the commander pay so much attention? ”

"Yes, there are several desolate islands, but some people can't sleep at night for her, and even heroes sacrifice their lives for her!" Wang Yue muttered to himself, he knew. In this era, no one will understand their feelings for her.

Taiwan and Jeju Island are larger than this island and have better natural conditions, Zhuang Suwen doesn't understand why Wang Yue attaches great importance to Diaoyu Island, but he is a smart person, and smart people will not get to the bottom of it. "Since the commander Qingmu is on this island, is he on the island to make a stone to show the world?"

Zhuang Suwen meant to let Wang Yue learn from Qin Shi Huang and parade around the East China Sea, but Wang Yue immediately thought of erecting a sovereignty monument here.

Do you want to do that?

No!

The range of the warships of the Tiance Navy is China's 10,000-mile sea frontier; Within the range of the army's artillery, it is China's domain!

While the naval fleet was sailing at sea, three Spanish warships broke into the Tamsui River and entered the vicinity of the settlement.

Immigrants to Taiwan may be threatened from several quarters, and Wang Yue has considered them. The first is the so-called southern miasma land, which is actually malaria, so the starting point city prepared a large amount of artemisinin for immigrants.

In addition, there is the threat from several forces around Taiwan, the most direct is the Dutch entrenched in southern Taiwan, and the second is the possible interference of the Zheng family.

Wang Yue ignored the fact that Keelung, which was closest to Tamsui, was still entrenched, that is, the Spaniards, who were the first to arrive in Taiwan.

It turned out that the Spaniards and the Dutch at this time occupied Taipei and Tainan respectively, and the Spaniards came to Dayuan earlier than the Dutch.

It stands to reason that the Spaniards should have a preconceived advantage, but this is not the case.

Although the Spanish occupied northern Taiwan, the Dutch united with Zheng Zhilong and some merchants of the Ming Dynasty to stop the Spanish merchants along the coast of Fujian, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, which seriously threatened the Spanish economy in Manila and other places.

Moreover, the price of goods shipped from Keelung is not cheaper than that of Ming merchants who ship directly to Manila; On the contrary, it cost a lot of money to maintain the garrison, and it was impossible to open up trade between the Ming and Japan.

In addition, since the third year of Chongzhen, the silver production in the Americas has been decreasing year by year, and Manila has fallen into economic recession due to the decrease in silver inflows.

Northern Taiwan's operations almost rely on subsidies from the Philippines, but the Philippines itself also needs funds to cope with the war with ***, and it is becoming more and more difficult for the Spaniards to survive.
