"Yo ho! This Zheng Boss is quite bold! Zhuo Shijie couldn't help but smile sarcastically. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Zheng Zhilong has always been very cautious, or rather, a little afraid of death, but this is normal, the more people in high positions, the more afraid of death, it is human nature.
In this case, how dare he go deep into the tiger's den, come to this island, and meet Zhuo Shijie.
"Congratulations, Commander!" Caterina hurriedly congratulated Zhuo Shijie.
"Congratulations? Why? ”
"Commander, Zheng Zhilong dared to take risks alone this time, which shows that the name of the commander's benevolence has spread."
Zhuo Shijie wondered even more, after his soul was reincarnated and reborn, he had been killing and killing, how could he say benevolence?
As soon as he thought about it, he vaguely understood.
Although he has killed countless people, he has not committed any crimes against the people, and his military rules, through the soldiers and then by the people, have been passed on by word of mouth, and may have really reached Zheng Zhilong's ears.
Zheng Zhilong has been operating at sea for so many years, saying that he has no eyes and ears on Taiwan Island, and he doesn't believe in ghosts.
"He didn't miscalculate this time, but it's not all right, I don't kill him, not for fame, but because I don't care to kill him."
At present, Zheng Zhilong, although he is powerful, he is not enough to become Zhuo Shijie's opponent, so why bother to get his hands dirty by blood.
"In that case, let's see."
Everyone came in person, so they had to meet each other, and Zhuo Shijie really wanted to see what this generation of heroes looked like.
Zheng Zhilong got off the warship and only brought four personal guards, and no matter how many people he brought on other people's territory, it was useless.
Looking at the majestic and magnificent Fort of Reranza in front of him, Zheng Zhilong was unwilling.
The first to set up an official on Taiwan Island was none other than him Zheng Zhilong!
In the early years, when he had just emerged on the sea, he used Taiwan Island as a base, modeled on the Ming Dynasty to set up a government office on Taiwan Island, and attracted Han people to immigrate to Taiwan Island.
Later, with the invasion of Western forces and the recruitment of the imperial court, he shifted his focus to the coastal areas of Fujian.
But he has never given up on Taiwan Island, and has always planned to fight with the Dutch and reclaim Taiwan Island, but before he could do it, this Zhuo Shijie, who suddenly rose from the sky, took the lead.
"Who is this Zhuo Shijie, the old man wants to be taught today."
One new and one old, two heroes in troubled times, each with their own thoughts, met like this.
"Lord Zheng, look up for a long time!"
"Brother Zhuo, I'm glad to be there!"
The welcome scene is old-fashioned, and the polite words of meeting are even more old-fashioned.
The thoughts of the two people are not the same:
"This person is Zhuo Shijie! So young! ”
Zhuo Shijie in Zheng Zhilong's eyes is too young, not a few years older than his son, but he has already achieved such an achievement!
Zheng Zhilong in Zhuo Shijie's eyes is also too young.
"This Zheng Zhilong is not an old man? What a young man! ”
At this time, Zheng Zhilong was only thirty-six or seventeen years old, and if he was placed in the next generation, he would not even be a middle-aged person.
You must know that at this time, his son Zheng Chenggong is almost sixteen or seventeen years old, and he is already an adult.
In the eyes of the two, there was a sense of pity for each other at the same time.
It's just that one is true and the other is false.
Due to the asymmetry of information, Zheng Zhilong has no understanding of Zhuo Shijie, but Zhuo Shijie is very clear about Zheng Zhilong's life.
"Is this the disloyal, unrighteous and unfilial Zheng Zhilong? Now it doesn't look like it! This appearance looks upright. ”
First of all, Zheng Zhilong was disloyal, he first took refuge in the Ming Dynasty, declared himself a vassal to the Ming Dynasty, and used the official position given to him by the court to run rampant all over the world and reap all the benefits.
But later the Manchu invasion, he saw that the Manchu Qing was powerful, turned around and threw himself into the arms of the Manchus, and turned around and fired at his old master, the Ming Dynasty. This is infidelity.
Let's talk about his injustice, after he was recruited by the Ming Dynasty, several righteous brothers were unwilling to take refuge in the court, and after that, he killed these righteous brothers and presented their names to the court. This is unrighteousness.
In the end, it was also the darkest move in his tragic life, which not only caused him to incur the name of unfilial piety, but also cost him his own life.
After Zheng Zhilong defected to the Manchus, his son Zheng Chenggong, like several of his righteous brothers, was unwilling to follow him to the Manchus, and led part of his old troops to continue the fight against the Manchus.
At this time, Zheng Zhilong, not long after he defected to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, his whole family was placed under house arrest in Beijing.
The Manchus used Zheng Zhilong to recruit his son Zheng Chenggong again and again, but Zheng Chenggong was not a Manchu dog minion.
When Zheng Chenggong defeated the Manchu troops in a battle, the Manchu Emperor was furious and beheaded Zheng Zhilong's entire family!
Especially Zheng Shigong's biological mother, she was humiliated by countless Qing soldiers before she died!
He fainted in one step, even affecting his parents, wife and children, except for the eldest son Zheng Chenggong, all of them were killed, which is unfilial!
The killing of his entire family caused Zheng Chenggong to suffer a major physical and mental blow, and even his final defeat was not unrelated to this incident.
Zhuo Shijie looked at the majestic middle-aged man in front of him, and while admiring it, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful, but it was a pity for this good skin.
Zheng Zhilong's only good reputation is benevolence.
He is not bad to the people, not like other pirates or officials to the common people, he is very sympathetic to the people, and his reputation among the people is still good.
In fact, it is precisely because of this that Zhuo Shijie agreed to see him, if he is really useless, Zhuo Shijie is too lazy to see him.
"Lord Zheng came here this time, I don't know what to see?"
The two of them sat down in the richly decorated reception hall in the castle, and after a polite exchange, Zhuo Shijie asked.
Zheng Zhilong glanced at Zhuo Shijie again, this son's attitude was neither arrogant nor humble, his expression was indifferent, he was really not an ordinary person.
If others saw him Zheng Zhilong, which one wouldn't be full of smiles? Even if he is Lord Qincha, he has to give him some face, but this Zhuo Shijie seems to be on an equal footing with him.
Aren't you just a pirate? There are only a few hundred people under his hands, why dare he be on an equal footing with my sea overlord Zheng Zhilong!
There are guts!
Zheng Zhilong smiled and did not answer directly, but said: "Brother Zhuo is young and promising, but the old man has never seen it in his life, if he is not mistaken, Brother Zhuo's future is limitless!" ”
"Prizes, prizes!"
Zheng Zhilong was finally a little displeased.
Listening to his sincere praise, why is this Zhuo Shijie not flattered at all? You know, he rarely praises others.
Forcibly enduring the unhappiness in his heart, Zheng Zhilong got to the point.
"Brother Zhuo, I came here today to marry you."
Marriage?
Zhuo Shijie finally couldn't calm down.
He was stunned and said, "Why did Lord Zheng say this? Boy, I don't get it. ”
He had expected that Zheng Zhilong would definitely want to share the interests of Taiwan Island with him when he came this time, and the two of them would inevitably have a war of words, and in the end, Zheng Zhilong's negotiation failed, and he was furious and walked away.
However, how did he make such a drama as marriage now?
