In addition, the sea wolf merchant fleet in Chongzhen for ten years, but also completely opened up the grain trade channel on the Siam side, and the local Siamese king established a good relationship, and got the support of the Siamese official, so that Siam rice can be exported to the sea wolf in large quantities, this freight line, every year the sea wolf is put into 100 ships, to Siam to rush to transport rice back to Fujian.

This Siam can provide hundreds of thousands of stone of grain for the sea wolf every year to feed a large number of people, not to mention, the sea wolf also reached an agreement with the Spanish ruler of Luzon, and can also purchase a large amount of rice from Luzon every year and transport it back to Fujian, which makes the sea wolf now have access to several grain import channels, so that they can reserve more grain for their future use.

In the past two years, the new grain purchased has no longer been stored in Taiwan Island and the coastal areas of Fujian, and in order to pass through the north in the future, a lot of grain has been quietly transported to Shandong and stored in Fushansuo, Zhifu Island, Yangma Island, and other places.

What makes Yu Xiaotian feel most pleased is that a large amount of land has been reclaimed on Jeju Island, which has been fully utilized, planting a lot of potatoes, corn and other crops, at least the annual output, which can be eaten by the soldiers and civilians on the island, and can also have a little surplus, so Jeju Island does not have to worry about it for the time being.

After the strategy of suppressing thieves proposed by Yang Sichang in the ninth year of Chongzhen, the officials and armies of the provinces began to coordinate and began to attack the peasant army in a more planned way.

However, Zhang Xianzhong, Li Zicheng, Luo Rucai, Lao Huihui, and other leaders of the peasant army were also constantly adjusting their strategies, conducting guerrilla attacks everywhere, and continuing to carry out activities in Hubei, Henan, Shaanxi, and the border areas of Sichuan.

Even so, on the whole, the shape of the Ming Dynasty seems to be improving to a certain extent, and the area of activity of the peasant army is gradually being compressed.

By the eleventh year of Chongzhen, Zhang Xianzhong, Luo Rucai and other troops had been compressed to the border between Huguang and Sichuan, and were forced into the deep mountains, which was already quite unfavorable to them.

Some peasant troops, led by Li Zicheng, were driven back to the Shangluo area of Shaanxi Province, where they were blocked in the mountains by the official army, and the situation was also precarious, and the area of activity was extremely compressed.

Some peasant armies, led by Lao Huihui and others, were encircled in Huo Yingshan, Huguang, Macheng, Henan, and other places.

There are also some leaders of the peasant army, under the blows of the official army in the past two years, either surrendered or died, and the peasant army, which was once nearly a million, was divided by the official army at this time, and could no longer echo each other, and it was no longer the situation of Chongzhen nine years ago that came and went without scruples.

Therefore, between the government and the opposition, at this time, some optimism began to appear, thinking that the extermination of the exile army should be just around the corner and would not last long.

At this time, Chongzhen's mood began to gradually improve, and Lu Xiangsheng was transferred to the Xuanda area, presided over the defense of Xuanda, and annexed the accumulated grain in the Xuanda area, which has also achieved initial results, which has greatly improved the defense level of the Xuanda area.

So at this time, Chongzhen also began to become optimistic, thinking that with his efforts, the situation in the Ming Dynasty had improved, and Yiqiē seemed to be developing in a good direction.

This reminded him of Yu Xiaotian in the south, so he began to think about how to deal with Yu Xiaotian again, Chongzhen in May of the eleventh year, Zhao Zhongchen once again discussed how to deal with Yu Xiaotian.

At this time, the ministers also began to maintain an optimistic attitude towards the current situation of the Ming Dynasty, thinking that it would not be long before these exile troops should be exterminated, and it was indeed time to consider solving Yu Xiaotian's problem, otherwise it would be difficult for Yu Xiaotian to be entrenched in the south, which would really make it difficult to sleep, and sooner or later it would be the trouble of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, after discussion, the ministers thought that after the exile army was exterminated, they would immediately mobilize the armies of Huguang, Nanzhili, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, and Liangguang, and mobilize a total of 150,000 heavy troops, and merge them into Fujian to launch a conquest against Xiaotian.

At that time, Chongzhen can order Yu Xiaotian to enter Beijing to question, if Yu Xiaotian is ordered to enter Beijing, he will be arrested in Beijing, but if he is not respectful, then in the name of his resistance, punish him, cut him down, and then attack Fujian with all kinds of armies and capture it!

Even if this guy relies on the strength of the sailors at hand, flees from Fujian by boat, and retreats to Taiyuan Island, he can at least uproot his power on land, even if he cedes the land and becomes the king, he is still alone overseas, and will not shake the foundation of the Ming Dynasty.

After Chongzhen and the ministers discussed, this matter was temporarily settled, and even Chongzhen, the candidate for the main suppression, had been drawn up in his heart in advance, and decided to choose one among Hong Chengchou and Lu Xiangsheng, and then send it to Fujian to oversee the filial piety.

However, it seemed that the imperial court would never be able to keep secrets, and such a confidential discussion reached the ears of the sea wolf who was in the capital that night.

When they heard the news, the intelligence personnel were immediately shocked, and hurriedly sent people to transmit the news back to Fujian as quickly as possible, and released the carrier pigeons, using the relay method to quickly transmit the news back to Yu Xiaotian as quickly as possible.

It only took a few days for Yu Xiaotian to receive the news from the Jingshi, although the news brought back by the carrier pigeon was very rough, but it was also possible to roughly figure out what the imperial court was thinking.

After Yu Xiaotian read the small note, not only did he not feel a little nervous, but he scoffed at it, and casually put the small note on the candle and lit it, burning it to ashes.

Seeing Yu Xiaotian's indifferent look, Liu Tong and Lin Yiyang were nervous to death, and hurriedly asked Yu Xiaotian how to deal with it.

Yu Xiaotian lit a pot of pipes, took two puffs, and sneered: "You look too high at the one sitting in the court!" Just with him and his subordinates, wanting to completely exterminate the exile army is almost like a dream!

These guys are full of food, and the matter of exterminating the exile army has not yet been skimmed, and it is really ridiculous to start fighting Lao Tzu's idea now!

I can bet with you, the Ming court and the government, don't look at them in the past two years, they seem to have achieved so much success, but I can guarantee that they will definitely not be able to exterminate those exile army!

Why are you so easy to exterminate as an outcast? Hum! At present, the imperial court is increasing salaries every year, and the common people have long been unable to live, what can they do if they don't rebel? Only if you rebel, there may be a way to live, otherwise you will be forced to die sooner or later!

Now it looks like the imperial court has the upper hand for the time being, but this is already the imperial court has done its best, don't forget, there is still the Jiannu army in the north, if it is not as I expected, the Jiannu army will definitely enter the customs in the near future and plunder.

At that time, the imperial court will definitely transfer soldiers and horses to the north of King Qin, and these exile troops will have a chance to breathe, and they will definitely resurrect immediately!

So I'm not nervous at all, because don't look at the court's idea to play well at this time, but they don't have a chance at all, why are you nervous? ”

After everyone listened to Yu Xiaotian's words, they suddenly breathed a long sigh of relief, although they were not afraid that the imperial court would send troops to suppress it now, but after all, this time the imperial court secretly discussed that it was necessary to mobilize more than 100,000 troops into Fujian, and in the face of hundreds of thousands of officers and soldiers, it always took some effort and foot.

But now looking at Yu Xiaotian's indifferent appearance, they feel that what Yu Xiaotian said is very reasonable, with the current practice of the imperial court, the common people really can't live, except for rebellion, there is really no better way, so Yu Xiaotian firmly said that the imperial court can't exterminate these exile army, not blindly optimistic.

In addition, his view of Jiannu is not untargeted, with the first two large-scale breakthroughs in Jiannu, and the return of the plunder, it can be seen that now Jiannu has no fear of the Ming Dynasty, and the bitter cold outside the pass, Jiannu does not rely on the customs to plunder, and it is true that life can not go on.

The things and goods that were snatched back by the last time the slaves entered the customs have now been almost consumed by them, and a large part of the slaves that were taken away are now in addition to the ones they retained, and now they have been collected by the sea wolves through the trade between guò and the sea wolves, enriching the population of their sea wolves.

Therefore, Yu Xiaotian expected that Jiannu might enter the customs again in the near future, and there was a sufficient basis for analysis from the reports they obtained, and it was not Yu Xiaotian who opened his mouth.

If Yu Xiaotian guessed it again this time, then the Ming Dynasty wanted to mobilize a large army into Fujian to attack and suppress their Yujia army after exterminating the exile army, which is indeed an empty pavilion, and it will not be able to achieve the goal at all.

So Lin Yiyang and Liu Tong suddenly breathed a long sigh of relief, and they no longer had the same nervousness just now.

Yu Xiaotian chatted with everyone for a while, and after dealing with some things that required his decision, he suddenly spoke:

"By the way, speaking of which, let me tell the General Staff that in the near future, we will make arrangements to send some additional troops to Denglai, replenish the strength of several important strongholds over there, and replenish them with more ammunition and food from the area of Zhifu Island and Yangma Island, and if the transportation capacity allows, transfer some artillery and artillery to them to enhance their defensive strength.

If Jiannu goes south this time and attacks where they are, let them not leave their hands and beat Lao Tzu hard, the more killed, the better!

Let them prepare in advance, and when Jiannu goes south, they must take in more ordinary people! The people who were sheltered this time do not need to continue to be transported to the south, but will be resettled on the spot, and personnel with qualified physiques will be selected to train them on the spot to form a township brave regiment, and within half a year, they will complete the task of training 5,000 recruits.

These recruits are required to complete the basic subject training of the recruit camp within half a year, so that they can meet the requirements of being able to go into battle!

If possible, the number can be raised to ten thousand! ”
