Chapter 108: Dead Land (Part II)

Yin Zhengmao seemed to have a smile on his face, and looked at Fan Jin for a while before he said, "Do you know what conditions the person who is just Lin Rebellion has put forward to this official?" They are willing to draw charts to facilitate the officers and men to go to the island, and they are also willing to lay down their swords and guns and return to obedience, but they must follow them to the island as hostages. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info you should know that this is tantamount to a wolf's den, whether you can come back, only God can call the shots, do you still have to go this way? ”

"It is incumbent upon the students to start this matter. What's more, if this matter does not work, the previous arrangements will be all water, and outwitting will become a strong attack. The terrain of South Australia is complex, easy to defend and difficult to attack, even if the group of thieves is weak now, but if they do the battle of trapped beasts, the casualties of the officers and soldiers will be huge. ”

"Well, since you have the heart to serve the country, this official can't fail you. Let's go down, Lin will wait below, you go and draw the nautical chart and the location of the gold, and then follow him to the island. I promised to give him three days to gather all the people to lay down their arms and surrender in a righteous manner. If you can convince them to lay down their arms, it's best if you can't...... When the time comes, the officers and troops will attack and uproot them. If the jade is burned under the sword, your situation will be very dangerous. So you only have three days, so you can do it yourself. If you can really convince them to drop their weapons, the officer will give you a reward. ”

"Contribute to the country, don't dare to say the word return, the army sits widely, and the students say goodbye."

Fan Jin turned to leave, and Luo Sixian approached Yin Zhengmao and said, "Dong Weng...... The Franco's demand was that the pirates must be eliminated in order to ensure trade. If...... The Lin family is still there, what should they think there? ”

"What do they think, or what?" Yin Zhengmao twisted his long hair in his hand and said with a sneer on his face: "Do these Yi people really think that this official cares about their feelings? Guaranteed Commerce? Do we want to trade, or do they want to trade? The reason why they were allowed to live in the entrenchment was because they were willing to pay 20,000 taels of silver to the imperial court every year, and they were also willing to serve the government and prepare for thieves. Yuegang City has worked hard for a year, and the ship tax collected is only 30,000 taels. The broken place in the trench was originally inhabited by the Tu people, who refused to obey the control of the imperial court, and refused to pay rent and serve after planting the fields. Let the Francophone take care of them, not only to save the trouble of the government but also to take the money, why not do such a business? In the eyes of this official, they are a group of tenants of the Ming Dynasty, as long as they farm with peace of mind and pay for grain, when does the government need to consider the opinions of tenants? They can't even be counted as people, so why do they care what they think? These clowns still think they have a plan, build houses in Trench Ao, and want to choose their own governor, do you think these things are unknown to the officials? A group of tenants who want to choose their own person to manage themselves? It's a pipe dream! ”

"Lin Feng is going to die because he wants to be the emperor. The Franc machine people are going to bang, because they want to do some kind of election. These two sins are actually the same. In the world of the Ming Dynasty, there can be no bad example of electing governors, otherwise someone will follow suit, and the world will be unstable. Prevent the slightest slight, and without waiting for them to develop strength, now, they have to abandon this idea. Before, there were both Luo Shanman, pirates, and foreign weapons, I only pretended to do it, but Fan Jin's method gave me a little inspiration. ”

Luo Sixian said: "Dong Weng is planning to devour the wolf with a tiger? ”

"No, that's Fan Jin's idea, others are very shrewd, but they still don't leave the scholar's opinion. How can a tiger devour a wolf be like two tigers fighting? I promised to give Lin three days to persuade his men to surrender, and three days after her departure, the officers and troops would reorganize their men and horses and attack South Australia, and those who resisted would be killed. In a word, it is difficult to chase the horse, but I just promised to restrain the officers and soldiers...... Not in this list. After they set off, they sent a message to the Franc machine people to let them out of the team. ”

"This ......"

Luo Sixian was stunned for a moment, knowing that his proprietor was planning to attack each other with Franc and pirates, and the officers and soldiers would reap the benefits. After all, the Francophone does not talk about military exploits, and the dead and injured do not need the Ming subsidy, and they are not distressed when the children in the front room die. But in this way, Fan Jin's situation is bound to be very dangerous, "Fan Sheng is Da Zhongcheng's henchman, if he does this, Zhongcheng will ...... there"

"Fan Jin is very smart and talented, and when a pirate comes to the door, he can not be surprised, but he can make a plan that will be calculated. That's why I said that Tao Jianzhi didn't record such a person, he was simply blind, and I didn't make a mistake in naming Yan Shen for him. However, talent is one thing, whether you want to keep him is another thing, you and Yangshan both value his talent, but what I value is his attitude. ”

Yin Zhengmao's face gradually turned cold, "From the perspective of the government, it is a great credit for his plan to be able to raze Nanao in one fell swoop. He wants to find a balance between the two sides that are incompatible, hoping to meet the source left and right, and not to exonerate each other. Even although he helped the imperial court to exterminate South Australia, he also hoped to leave a trace of vitality for the pirates in order to recruit peace, and his purpose was naturally to leave a space to speak, so that the pirates would not enmity him. From his standpoint, doing this may be called excusable, but from the standpoint of the imperial court, such behavior is suspected of being at both ends of the first rat. Brother Yangshan appreciates his talent and is willing to reuse him, and I don't care about these things, and I can't refute his face, but I can't destroy the overall situation just because I care about one person. I gave him a chance this time, if he is willing to put down this matter and go back to study with peace of mind, even if the South Australian pirates want to retaliate in the future, won't the court take care of him next? At most, the village suffered some losses, and his family was free from pressure. But if he wants to take the risk, I won't stand in the way. ”

Luo Sixian said: "Fan Jin's method of recruiting An, from the student's point of view, is not completely undesirable. ”

"Of course, if his plan to secure himself is not successful, I have already ordered the pirate to be taken down and beheaded. It is forbidden to be a man and do things, and an official cannot only take care of himself and ignore his successors, but always leave some military exploits to Yangshan. Fan Jinding's ten-sided net to break through Luoshan, although the method is good, it takes a long time, Yangshan has this time and barbarian mushrooms, but I don't want to spend it here anymore. If South Australia is solved quickly, it is time to prepare to go to Beijing to take up his post. Yangshan thinks about everything for me and raises food and salary for me to suppress thieves, which is not easy. If I kill all the thieves, what will Yangshan rely on in the future? Leaving a Luo Shanman to promote him, and leaving some pirates to come down, and accumulating ordinary labor achievements for the training of the navy army is a way to kill two birds with one stone. If the officials and soldiers are killed, the jade and stones are burned, and it is actually difficult for the pirates to escape. There are few soldiers, they rush forward, and the pirates can't win but they can always escape. Since Fan Jin wants the knife to cut the tofu on both sides, the official will give him a chance. If he can convince the pirates not to kill him, and then flee with the thieves, the official will not pursue it. There is always a price to pay for what people want to get, and since they want this result, they have to take corresponding risks, so that it is fair. If he can survive and do Zhao'an in the future, he will be the number one hero, and he will inevitably have to be reused. If he dies, it will be considered a mercy. ”

"What did Dong Weng say about Da Zhongcheng?"

"I have prepared two things here, and I will explain how to see Brother Yangshan in the future."

On Yin Zhengmao's desk, there were two documents, Luo Sixian stepped forward to read them, and saw that one of them was a letter of recommendation for Fan Jin to be a Confucian scholar to participate in the undergraduate township examination, and the other was a letter of recommendation for Fan Jin to be a martyr who sacrificed his life against the Japanese and deserved to enjoy the Nanhai Martyrs' Shrine.

In Luo Sixian's view, Fan Jin is a talent, and he has made great contributions to his own side, after all, once the hidden gold is discovered, it will be of great benefit to both officials and privates. But in the eyes of people at Yin Zhengmao's level, talent is just a very broad concept, and he will help him when he needs to care, and when he doesn't care, it's not worth anything. A person's life or death is not taken seriously in his plans.

Fan Jin did this, and he naturally couldn't catch up with the big test, Yin Zhengmao had a quota in his hand, and he could directly stuff people into the township test for reference. At his level, he doesn't really care much about this kind of quota, and it doesn't take it seriously to give favors casually, but it is also a great favor for the parties. If you are worthy of being loyal to the martyrs, you can be exempted from Erding's service, and you can be regarded as supporting your family, whether Fan Jin is dead or alive, he can give an explanation to Ling Yunyi and the Fan family, and there is nothing to scruple about.

Inside the room.

Fan Jin put down the pen in his hand, pointed to the picture in front of him and said, "That's probably it." If you're right, that's what the whole South Australian waterway looks like. ”

Looking at the sea chart and the gold map in front of him, Lin Haishan's expression was very complicated, and she was silent for a while before saying: "As soon as these two things are handed over, I am a sinner in South Australia." Our own sea charts are very sloppy, there are no sailors to lead the way, and it is not easy to find the way with the map. But the officers and soldiers can take your map, Nanao Island can enter and exit freely, in order to keep Nanao, I should kill you, and then burn the map. ”

"Zoom in a little bit, South Australia is a small place, what is there to be nostalgic for. The loss of this island is only the loss of a shackle for you, and the whole sea is waiting for you to conquer. Only when the mind and vision are bigger, can the pattern be bigger, and only with the big pattern can we do great things. Nesting on that island, he can only be regarded as a pirate, and if he wants to build a country, he must have the courage to go out. Besides, 100,000 soldiers are determined to take Nanao, no matter what, otherwise the monarchs and ministers of the Great Song Dynasty would not have to die. Natural Insurance...... It's useless. ”

"But if this plan is handed over, will the officers and soldiers keep their promise and let me go back?"

"They can't be sure of the authenticity of this picture, so they will kill you, and if the picture is fake, they won't be able to draw it. It is more in the interests of the government to let you go back to cause the chaos in South Australia, so you will definitely be released. ”

Lin Haishan looked at Fan Jin, "Then you want to go back with me?" On the island, it is our world, are you not afraid that I will kill you? ”

"I'm afraid...... I never said I wasn't afraid of death. But I'm sure you're not an idiot, and I'm alive more useful to you than I'm dead. The reason why you have done so badly this time is because there is no one. No one in the court rebelled, no one in the court did not recruit an, who let you have no scholars to support you, so you will be unlucky. So not only can you not kill me, but you have to pray to God and worship Buddha, hoping that I will go to high school as soon as possible, and it is best to be a champion. In this way, you will have a backer in the court, and you will be able to accomplish the things I said. Kill me, where will the new ship be built? ”

"So you're saying you drew us a loaf of bread and told me that it wouldn't work without you?"

"Of course, wouldn't it be fun for me to tell you all night if I didn't sleep all night?" Fan Jin smiled and blew the ink off the paper. "Don't fight with the scholars, you are not opponents, and besides, the new ship has heard a head, kill me, who will build the ship? Don't think about South Australia, it's better to pay you in the future. ”

After the map was handed to the guards, no one informed them that they could leave, and the two were placed under house arrest in their rooms, awaiting the final disposition. Lin Haishan had countless thoughts in her heart, not only worried that the government would eat black, but still kill people after taking things, and she felt that since Fan Jin was so sure, there should be no change.

After about an hour, someone brought in some wine and food, saying that it was a lunch arranged by the governor, and after lunch, a boat would be arranged to send the two of them out of Zhaoqing for South Australia.

At present, the situation at sea is more complicated, although Lin Feng's forces are listed as targets for the government, but in the field of private commerce, they still have trade contacts with many merchants. After all, the huge force of tens of thousands of people consumes a considerable amount of materials every day.

Although the pirates are fierce and the government is also wanted, there are always some daring businessmen who will risk their heads to transport supplies to the vicinity of South Australia in exchange for high returns. The two were on a merchant ship that had been trading with South Australia for a long time, and it was used to bring people to the vicinity and then transfer to a pirate ship to go ashore.

To be able to run such a route for a long distance, the shipowner knows that he has his own way in the government, but looking at today's arrangement, this shipowner is afraid that he is the eyes and ears of the Ming government, and collects information about South Australia by selling materials.

Lin Haishan has no contact with the owner of the ship, and has only seen each other from afar a few times in the past when she was on the island, and has always regarded the other party as a businessman, but she doesn't want to look away. Until I got out of the bilge, I hated myself and hated it.

"I didn't expect him to be a spy of the government. The eldest brother has always said that among the people who do business with us, there must be the eyes of the government, and we should be careful not to let them find out the waterways on the island, but after all, people want to eat, so they have to deal with them, so they can only turn a blind eye, and some spies will guard against them. Unexpectedly, this recognized businessman is also an ear and eye. ”

"Joke, it's all your business, where else can he go? There is no reason why you are only allowed to plant eyeliner in the government, and not to be allowed to plant people around you. It is unlikely that officers and soldiers will go undercover in the pirates and arrange for some businessmen to find out information, which is a very common deployment, this is not a conspiracy or a conspiracy, and there is no way to see through it. Unless you don't deal with the outside world, you can't do anything about it. ”

"That'...... What should I do if I pull the flag myself in the future and encounter such a thing? ”

"What is this, stealing a teacher? I told you, these things are my life-saving capital, and I won't say it casually. ”

The ship was bumpy, and the sound of the waves passed into the cabin through the wooden planks, and Fan Jin did not believe the credit of the government. The so-called three days to lay down the weapon, this kind of words can not even be believed, whether you can survive this time, or rely on your own luck and mouth. Lin Haishan had no heart or lungs, she had already pillowed her head on Fan Jin's shoulder and dozed off, Fan Jin listened to the waves, his fingers lightly tapped the beat, and sang in a low voice: "Drink the celebration wine today, the ambition is not rewarded, and the future will show your skills......"
