On August 29, the 37th year of Yongli, that is, the fourteenth day after the end of the Battle of Dongning, the Penghu Qing army surrendered to the boy scouts who returned to the Penghu sea area to carry out the blockade task due to the lack of foreign aid and the fact that the food was running out.

Taking advantage of the annihilation of the main force of the Qing army and the lack of coastal air defense in Fujian Province, the Boy Scout Navy Division attacked many times, not only shelling Jinxia, Tongshan, Nanao and other places many times, but even going north to Dinghai and Haitan, blocking the mouth of the Min River, which caused a great shock to the Qing court.

For this reason, the Qing court repeatedly ordered the three provinces of Zhejiang, Jiangxi and Guangdong to transfer troops into Fujian, but the reinforcements from all walks of life were either because of the high mountains and the inconvenient transportation, or because the remnants of the battle with the Zheng army were still there, or the grain and straw were not ready, so the speed of the march was not very fast. Taking advantage of the belated arrival of all sides, the Boy Scouts decisively launched several small-scale cross-sea operations, repeatedly breaking the side walls built by Yao Qisheng, and carrying thousands of civilians and a large number of supplies to Taiwan one after another.

On the 10th day of September, Wu Xingzuo sent envoys to Penghu to appease them, but the people and ships were all seized by Zheng Jun, and Wu Xingzuo, who had not been able to wait for the news, sent a second wave of envoys on September 20, but they still never returned. Puzzled, Wu Xingzuo visited Yao Qisheng and asked him for advice on how to take care of Taiwan in front of his sickbed.

"Boss, now Fujian Province is in danger, and the emperor urgently needs us to come up with a charter," Wu Xingzuo complained to Yao Qisheng. "But I sent people to Hai Rebellion several times, but there was no news, what is the reason? It's not that the reputation of the subordinate is not obvious, or the next time he will still act under the banner of the boss. ”

"Brother Bocheng, you did this errand." Yao Qisheng said weakly, most of his illness is heart disease, and it is estimated that it will not be cured if there is no heart medicine. "The sea reversal has always been rampant, you have sent people to appease you several times, don't you tell the sea rebellion, the court can't hold it, please surrender quickly?" Yao Qisheng shook his head. "It's impossible to ask for a price if the sea is not flooded."

"Boss, the lower officials are also ready to ask for a price from the sea." Wu Xingzuo said distressedly. "But the other side detains someone and doesn't respond, even if we want to pay back the money on the spot, isn't there no chance?" Wu Xingzuo's expression was eager. "In the final analysis, it is necessary for the sea to stop the attack on the coastal areas of Fujian Province now, and how can it be done without talking about it."

"Brother Bocheng, listen to the old man." Yao Qisheng looked at this old subordinate who could have been transferred to the governor of Liangguang and sighed lightly. "Zhu Qin's young man's victory, it is the time of arrogance, you have repeatedly sent people to only fuel his arrogance, it is better to calm down, in fact, the coastal boundary has been sealed for many years, how much can they rob? As for the suggestion that the sea may penetrate deep into the mainland, this is pure nonsense. Even if the imperial court defeats Dongning, the vitality is still there, and to put it mildly, does Hai Rebellion dare to take risks? ”

"Having said that, there are still many evil parties that have come out of the wall." The family didn't know that firewood and rice were expensive, and after acting as the governor of Fujian, Wu Xingzuo knew how big the hole in Fujian was. "What if there is a collusion between them, and the sea goes west again?"

"Brother Bocheng, is this possible?" Yao Qisheng asked rhetorically, and then saw the glint in Wu Xingzuo's eyes, his expression suddenly moved, it turned out that Wu Xingzuo was playing with the idea of reimbursement of military expenses, and as soon as he thought of this, Yao Qisheng didn't say anything more. "Since Brother Bocheng wants to play the old man's banner, then just go ahead"

Cai Tong didn't know how many times he had come to Bintonglong's port to look for Dongning's incoming ship, twenty times or thirty times or forty times? Every time I came with hope, I was disappointed. Gradually, gradually, even Bin Tong Longren's eyes looked at himself a little differently. Just as he had lost hope and was just repeating his mission mechanically, a team of lucky boats flying the flag of the Boy Scouts came into view.

"It's you!" Looking at Sun Fei who walked down from the Fu boat after docking (note: recommended by book friend haohaouis), Cai Tong, who was in a mood, couldn't help but punch the other party in the chest, only to hit Sun Fei grinning, but Cai Tong just thought that the other party was doing something wrong, so he didn't pay attention at all, and just asked about the details of the battle of Dongning. "Tell me quickly, have you caught Shi Lang, a traitor?"

"That guy is a ruthless character, and he knows that he can't do it, so he gives himself a sword." Sun Fei replied, while holding his hand on his chest, only then Cai Tong realized that the other party was inappropriate, and Sun Fei explained. "I ate a guy from the Qing army when I was blocking the enemy in Hanxi Port, although there was chain mail to protect the flesh and skin, but the rib was fractured."

Cai Tong was taken aback, and hurriedly asked with concern: "Then why do you still come out and hang around, and take care of it at home." ”

"It's not good to play splints here, and it's the same at home, so it's better to go out for a walk, and it's said that it's good to be fast." Sun Fei said lightly. "By the way, the lord has transferred me to the staff room, and the room has sent me to be a guest Tonglong, and the two of us will partner again in the future." Sun Fei explained his new identity. "In addition, six disabled veterans were also given to the house, and the part of Cham and Quang Nam will be supported by us first."

"What is the task in the house?" Cai Tong asked, but Sun Fei smiled and didn't answer, he suddenly realized. "Look, I'm in a hurry these days, and I've even forgotten the rules, okay, let's go back and talk slowly"

"This time, the lord allocated 400 bird guns and 6 two-inch Franc breech guns from the booty as the operating expenses of the Bintong Dragon Merchant House, of which 200 guns and four Franc cannons were directly used as the land price for leasing Cam Ranh Bay to the Bintong Dragons." Back in the merchant house temporarily rented by Cai Tong, Sun Fei gave a detailed account of Zheng Kezang's instructions. "In the future, Caitou, you will preside over the armed merchant house in Cam Ranh Bay in your official capacity as the official of your domain, and I will stay in the Bintong Longgang commercial port as a merchant, so that we will not be wiped out after the Bintong Longren succumb to the pressure of the Qing captives."

Hearing that he was allowed to preside over the armed merchant inn, Cai Tong's eyebrows suddenly raised: "So, Shisun, no, the Lord has already approved the establishment of a supply depot for the Voyage Battalion in Cam Ranh Bay?" ”

"That's right, as soon as the Battle of Dongning ended, the lord decided at the first time to use Cam Ranh Bay as the foothold of the naval division in the west of Qiongzhou in the future, but at present, the loss of this army is not small, and there will be insufficient strength to strengthen the naval division for a while and a half, so for the time being, you don't need to make a big move to build the military port, artillery forts, and fortresses." This is of course because there is no need to do this for the time being, but also because Ming Zheng lacks sufficient financial resources. "I thought about it on the way here, it's okay, at least at this stage, we won't have a conflict with the Bintong Dragon King, but you still have to find a way to form a guard army of one or two hundred people, the head of the sect can use the veterans who came this time, as for the weapons, the fire gun and the Franc machine gun anyway, you can intercept some of the equipment, and the other swords, guns, armor or something, what is lacking will be reported to Dongning, and it will be shipped directly to you next time."

Cai Tong suppressed his excitement and thought for a while, and then asked with understanding: "But in the future, Dongning will no longer provide us with funds?" ”

"Dongning is now in ruins, and it's already very good not to expect you and me to feed back." Sun Fei told the truth. "Of course, there will be follow-up support, but in the final analysis, we have to be able to break through on our own." Sun Fei took a chopstick dish and put it in his mouth, chewed it twice, and then said. "Caitou, if you don't think I'm overstepping, I'll build you, you can keep fifty bird guns and two Franc cannons, and sell the rest to Bintong Dragon King for money."

"What do we have to do with it, how can I blame you for acting on your behalf, in fact, I'm worried that the Bintong Dragon King doesn't have so much money." Cai Tong smiled bitterly, his time in Bintonglong was not short, and he also knew a lot about the details of Bintonglong. "You don't know, Bintong Dragon King is actually a broken household, maybe all his family is not as good as a rich man in the mainland."

"Then barter." Sun Fei finished the draft all the way. "What Dongning lacks most now is cattle, this time we can transport fifty heads back first, and as for the remaining space, find a way to use brown sugar, and use Sumu, ivory, tortoiseshell and the like like of Japan and North Korea to fill it." Speaking of which, Sun Fei has a new idea. "When Cam Ranh Bay arrives, the vacant land that we don't use for the time being can be rented to the locals for reclamation, and this rice is also an income."

"You're wrong again." Cai Tong laughed when he heard this. "The locals are very lazy, so they give it to them to plant, and collect some of the Han'er to plant, and let the Han'er plant is better than directly buying black slaves to plant." Cai Tong said as he spoke, and suddenly an unbelievable idea popped up. "If Kunlun Biao's slave army divides the land on the island, I'm afraid there are a lot of taboos, it's better to let them come here, which will pay for their merits, and also ensure that Cam Ranh Bay will always be in our hands, maybe the escort team of the merchant inn can also get out of them, which is much better than those half-hearted occupants."

"It's a good building." Sun Fei and Cai Tong are still young, so naturally there are not so many taboos, such a big thing, the two of them decided to make suggestions to Zheng Kezhang as soon as they put it together. "Wait, let's write an excerpt and let the fleet take it back."

The two chatted for a while, Sun Fei discussed with Cai Tong his plan to stabilize Bintonglong first and then develop to Guangnan and Beihe, Cai Tong stared at him and asked a lot about the specific situation of the Battle of Dongning. ”

"The nose is pointed." Cai Tong commented noncommittally. "He was eyeing our ship as soon as it came."

"Who let our goods dazzle," Sun Fei chuckled. "That's fine, strike while the iron is hot and knock things down, and I estimate that the Bintong Dragon King will ask you about Shi Lang, you might as well scare him and save him from having a bad heart."

"He dares!" Cai Tong looked confident. "Lao Cao, you wait for me to come back, let's have a good drink tonight!"

"Okay, I'll wait for you"
