No matter how good Zheng Zha's temper is, he wants to get angry when he sinks his face, but after thinking about it for a while, he still held back, and still said with a pleasant face: "I see that there are not many of you, you shouldn't be able to use such a big place, can you let us reclaim the land you haven't cultivated?" ”

The Han replied: "We have few people now, but our number of people will continue to increase, if in a hundred years our descendants will be more numerous, but the land is occupied by you, what will you let us do?" ”

Zheng Zha couldn't help but laugh: "Then according to what you said, we can't come to this big island, because maybe in a thousand years, your descendants will use all the places, brother, the account is not calculated like this." ”

Dahan said: "Let's come first, that place is ours, this is not a question of whether it is an account or not, if you are not convinced, then let's fight." ”

Zheng Zha: "Okay, how do you say to fight?" ”

Dahan said: "You choose five people, I am alone, I win, you will go back." ”

Zheng Zha asked, "Then what if we won?" ”

The big man laughed wildly, "You won't win. ”

Zheng Zha, too, smiled, since he said this, it would be in vain to say it, and he would naturally be cowardly if he won the battle.

He retreated, chose four soldiers, and took up a musket himself, and five of them marched forward together before he reached the great man. Zheng Zha said: "Let's say okay first, we can hit you by standing here, and you can choose to go back now." ”

The big man had a smile on his face, and with a wave of his hand, a big dog or a big wolf as big as a calf pounced. Zheng Zha's gun was aimed at it and pulled the trigger, but only the sound of impact was heard, but it didn't sound. By this time the big dog (wolf) had already pounced in front of him, and he pulled the trigger again, but it still did not sound. He was in a state of death, when the fire of the soldier next to him rang out, and four buckshot shots struck the beast at the same time, and the beast fell to the ground, whimpered twice, and looked like he was about to die.

Only then did the Han know that the Ming army was not lying, and this kind of stick that could fire could indeed hurt people without being next to it. He was very embarrassed for a while, come forward, five sticks that can fire can definitely beat him all over the body, and his body will not be much harder than a dog. Retreat, the big words have been released, and so many clansmen are watching.

At this time, an old man behind the big man stepped forward, slapped the big man on the head and scolded: "Don't retreat yet." Then he said to Zheng Zhan with a smile on his face: "Xiao'er doesn't know the height of the sky, and he doesn't know the general's might, please forgive the general." ”

Zheng Zhan was relieved to see that a relatively normal person had finally come out, of course he could kill the big Han, but first, he felt that it was not good to kill his own people (Xiaoliuqiu were all coastal people from Fujian, but they came earlier, so they would be a little different from the Han people), and secondly, he didn't want to be endlessly harassed, and it was best to be able to resolve their differences through negotiation.

He also replied with a smile: "The old man is serious, we want to use the place you can't use for the time being, I don't know if it's okay." ”

The old man nodded again and again: "Of course you can, the population of our clan is not large, and we can't use so many places, please take care of the general." ”

Zheng Zha also reciprocated: "We brought some farming tools, and we will bring ploughing cattle and new seeds later, and then we will give some to my father-in-law's tribe, I hope my father-in-law will not shirk." ”

The old man thanked again and again: "Thank you, General, the ancestors once said that we are also from the other side of the sea, since we are similar in speech, I think we should be members of the same clan, and we will be closer in the future." ”

Zheng Zhan inquired about the old man, and learned that they were called Qiupingbu, the old man was the patriarch called Qiuhai, and the big man was his son Qiufeng. There are more than 300 people in the Akiheibu, who make a living from farming, but their farming techniques are relatively old and inefficient.

Zheng first demarcated the site of the fortification, and then began to build temporary houses outside the fortification site. Seeing their construction skills, Qiuhai asked Zheng Zhan to help them build a house, and was willing to exchange Qiuping's manpower for it. Zheng Zha, and they agreed that the Ming army would send someone to guide them in repairing the house, and the Qiuping Department would use two young and strong laborers to help them build the city.

Soon after, Chen Houfu sent someone to be brought by Suo Biao's men to find him by land, and Zheng Zhan found that in fact, if the two places were taken by land, it was not very far at all, and Chen Houfu's subordinates said that the distance between the two places was no more than 60 miles at most, and there was no too high mountain in the middle.

Zheng Zha's deputies followed Chen Houfu's men again, and after a simple measurement, the distance between the two places was fifty-four miles. After consulting with the deputy commander of the navy, Chen Houfu dispatched 500 men to start building improvised roads between the two places, and decided to open up settlements along both sides of the road.

And Chen Shiying's construction process in Dayuan, a coastal sandbar in the south of the Ryukyus, Chen Shiying began to build a city in a place where the tide could not rise, and those Dutch soldiers were very obedient, because they knew that it was useless to resist, and if they worked hard, they would be treated better.

Within three months, the castles in the three places have been built, and Sun Chengzong has already reported the construction of the city to Zhu Youxiao, who renamed Xiaoliuqiu as Taiwan Mansion, Dayuan's castle as Tainan, Tamsui's castle as Taipei, and Jicoop's castle as Keelung.

The post of governor of Taiwan was established, and Xie Xuelong of the Criminal Division was appointed as the governor of Taiwan. He also established the post of Governor of Futai to administer Fujian and Taiwan. Sun Chengzong was the first governor of Futai.

Xie Xuelong is also a member of the Donglin Party, and now two Donglin Party members manage Fujian and the newly built Taiwan Prefecture, and handle relations with the Netherlands and other Western countries, which makes the courtiers a little incomprehensible.

In fact, it is very simple, just like Wei Zhongxian once said to Guan Yingzhen and others: "The Holy Lord doesn't care what party you are, as long as you do things with all your heart, that's fine, if you make some messy things to disgust the Holy Shang, like the previous national capital dispute, the three cases of the previous dynasty, then I'm sorry, your seat will be given to the person who does practical things." ”

Of course, Zhu Youxiao asked Wei Zhongxian to say this, because after he severely attacked the Donglin Party, the three parties thought that the emperor had sounded the charge to attack the Donglin Party, and some people began to be ready to move, and even wanted to try to find trouble with Ye Xianggao and even Sun Chengzong, which Zhu Youxiao could not tolerate, so he asked Wei Zhongxian to warn them.

These words can be said to have an immediate effect, and the momentum of the three parties that has just risen has been knocked down, and it turns out that the emperor does not want to defeat the Donglin Party, so it is obviously impossible to rely on what to rely on to carry out the party struggle.

And another layer of meaning revealed in Wei Zhongxian's words also made people with hearts moved, since the emperor likes to do practical things, then come to do practical things, who won't do practical things, but everyone was engaged in party struggle before, and they didn't care about doing practical things, but now that the party struggle is not done, then let's do things.

All kinds of requests, thank you for your support! Some people may take this last paragraph for granted, but in fact, I have always believed that the importance of the superior cannot be overestimated, especially in a feudal society like the Ming Dynasty.
