Chapter 254: Where to Go 2
Don't look at the big fight between the sea wolf and the Fujian officials in Fujian this time, in fact, in Xiaotian's heart, he is not very willing to make this matter out of control in the end.
At present, he needs a stable transition period to gradually develop his strength, even if he wins the war every day, and can obtain war dividends, it is not what he wants, because war will seriously drag down his development for him, and when he is in a state of war, the entire sea wolf will be in a state of tension, and there is not much problem in the short term, but if it is long, there will be serious problems.
In addition, before he develops strong enough strength, he doesn't want Daming to accelerate the collapse, because before he is ready, he needs Daming's clumsy machine to continue to run to consume the strength of his future enemy, and when he has the strength to fight the Central Plains one day, he will push the Daming edifice until it is not too late.
And now if he refuses to be touched, this time the matter has reached such a point, after Xiong Wencan takes office, he will definitely find a way to solve his problem, if he can't rely on Fujian's own strength, then Daming will not easily sit back and watch him toss along the coast.
Maybe the imperial court will move a few provincial capitals, not to mention whether he can be wiped out, the southeastern coastal provinces of the Ming Dynasty only need to be ruthless, and once again come to a sea ban campaign, strictly control the export of goods from various ports, then for the sea wolf, it is enough for him to break the sea wolf.
This is not the result that Yu Xiaotian wants to see, because at that time, his entire economy will suffer a heavy blow, and if he leaves the resources of the Ming Dynasty, almost everything he has at hand will probably be forced to stagnate, so his next pace of expanding his strength may also be completely stagnant because of this.
And he knows very well that his enemy is not only Da Ming at present, because his strength has developed too fast, and has seriously damaged the previous balance on the sea, and the appearance of his behemoth has aroused the vigilance of all parties, and now the pirates on the Guangdong side have begun to faintly have a desire to unite against him, and the Spaniards, the Dutch and even the Portuguese have now regarded him as a disruptor of order.
In order to protect their interests, these guys are definitely not willing to sit idly by and watch the sea wolf develop like this, and finally control the entire southeast coast of China in his hands, so once the Ming court wants to launch a few provincial capitals against the sea wolf, Yu Xiaotian believes that whether it is the Dutch, the Spaniards or even those colleagues, they may come in and help the court destroy him.
If these forces are only a single party, Yu Xiaotian doesn't have to be afraid of them at all now, but if these forces are united, Yu Xiaotian asks himself, I'm afraid that even if he is a sea wolf, he will be difficult to care about in the end, and if he is not careful, he may be completely subverted.
Thinking about it carefully, Zheng Zhilong accepted Xiong Wencan's appeasement, although it also involved Zheng Zhilong's idea of wanting to be an official, but the most important thing is that Zheng Zhilong understood the situation at that time, he wanted to control the coastal areas of Fujian in his hands, which has caused the dissatisfaction of many powerful forces.
In that case, even if Zheng Zhilong was strong at that time, I am afraid that there was only a way to defeat.
Another point is that Yu Xiaotian is well aware of the current fragility of the Ming Dynasty, if he fights with the Ming Dynasty on the southeast coast, the Ming Dynasty will definitely mobilize a large number of manpower and material resources and other resources to tilt towards the southeast coast.
And now the situation in the Ming Dynasty is really not optimistic, there are Jiannu Tartars in the north who are staring at the pass day and night, there is also the rebellion of luxury in the south, and the displaced people in the northwest and the Shanxi area have begun to move, once the Ming Dynasty is determined to destroy him Yu Xiaotian, and the manpower and material resources will be transferred to the southeast coast, then he Yu Xiaotian will be unlucky, but he will definitely be cheaper than those guys.
This kind of thing of making wedding dresses for others, Yu Xiaotian would not do it at all, so after some inner struggle, Yu Xiaotian began to seriously consider the possible future recruitment of security.
"My lord! With our strength, whether or not to accept the appeasement now is not too big a problem! Looking at this sea, I am afraid that there are few of them who can still compete with our sea wolves!
The lord is at ease here, why bother to be sent by the government, listen to the dispatch of the court, and be a thug for the court? ”
At this time, among Yu Xiaotian's staff, there was a person who opened his mouth and said, this person can be said to have a deep hatred for the government, when he heard that Yu Xiaotian raised this matter, he was very unhappy to let Yu Xiaotian accept Zhao'an, and even opened his mouth to speak.
Lu Shi frowned, and continued: "Brother Jiang, you can't say that!" Although it is difficult to find the right person in the strength of the lord on this sea now, if we do not accept Zhao'an, then the imperial court will definitely regard us as mortal enemies! We will try our best to get rid of it as soon as possible!
If it is just a Fujian, we are not worried now, but once the imperial court fails to recruit security this time, and wants to drive us away from Weitouwan and recover Haitan, Meizhou Island, Nanri Island and other places, then no one dares to guarantee that the imperial court will launch a few provincial capitals to suppress!
Although we are strong now, once the imperial court launches a few provincial capitals to suppress it, I am afraid it will be difficult for us to deal with it, not to mention that if we can't get other peers, we will also help the government to deal with us when we take the opportunity!
If we come to this point, I'm afraid that even if we are strong, it will not be easy to deal with! ”
After listening to Lu Shi's analysis, everyone fell silent again, Liu Laoliu had also calmed down at this time, and after thinking for a while, he smiled bitterly and said: "Accepting Zhao'an is actually not a thing, it's just a change of official uniform!" As for the imperial court, what we want is peace along the coast, and with this official body, it will be more convenient for us to act!
After all, over there in Weitou Bay, we are so occupying it now, and the name is not right, although it is still under the jurisdiction of the noble government on the surface, but everyone knows the way, it is just a show for people to see!
In the short term, Fujian has no way to take us, so we will turn a blind eye, but after a long time, how can the so-called Qingliu people in the imperial court sit idly by? So it's not a long-term solution to do it now! ”
After Yu Xiaotian heard this, his brows jumped, but he didn't speak, but swept his gaze to Lin Yiyang, who had not spoken.
Lin Yiyang also felt Yu Xiaotian's gaze, suddenly smiled slightly, and said: "Accepting the matter of recruiting An, the students think it's not a bad thing!"
From the student's point of view, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages! The disadvantage is that once he accepts Zhao'an, the lord may be subject to the control of the government to a certain extent in the future, and there may be many inconveniences in his actions, and the lord may also have to live on land, so as not to make the court have scruples!
In addition, since we accept Zhao'an, then some of our army and navy will definitely be transferred to the official army, and in the future, we will have to accept the dispatch of the government and do things for the imperial court!
Aside from that, the rest should be all good! After our army and navy are transferred to a part of the official army, the imperial court will definitely have to appoint personnel, so that as long as the imperial court has a fixed number of personnel, it will be paid a certain amount of money, and the food and salary of these people and horses will be paid, at least let us save a sum of expenses.
In addition, if the lord accepts Zhao'an, we can justifiably occupy Weitou Bay now, as long as we occupy Weitou Bay, we can rest assured that we can continue to collect pumping over there, and no one dares to say anything about it.
If the lord puts on an official robe, it will be more convenient for us sea wolves to act along the coast of Fujian in the future.
In addition, if we want to open up the island of Taiwan, we will continue to emigrate from the land, and in the past, we were also hiding and doing this kind of thing in secret, but after we have been appeased, this kind of thing no longer needs to be covered up like before.
The biggest advantage is not these, the biggest advantage is that the lord will caress after the official, but the official body, in the future, with the support of the Fujian government behind the back, we can save a lot of silver, only need to be paid by the Fujian official, we cast our own cannons, which not only saves money, but also has a surplus!
In addition, with this official body, no matter who wants to get involved in the coastal areas of Fujian in the future, they are the enemies of the government.
With so many benefits, in the eyes of the students, it is not a problem to accept Zhao'an, but the students feel that as long as Xiong Futai's conditions are suitable, they might as well accept Zhao'an! ”
After listening to Lin Yiyang's words, everyone bowed their heads and summed up, and they all nodded yes, because accepting Zhao'an's words for the time being can indeed allow the sea wolf to get quite a lot of benefits.
"But Mr. Lin, what if the imperial court wants to take my military power and put me in the air after accepting Zhao'an? Moreover, and most importantly, now our Tamsui City still has Keelung Fort, Dagou Port and other places, if the imperial court proposes to be included in the jurisdiction, what should it do? That's what I'm most concerned about! You must know these places, but the foundation of our sea wolf is located, if this matter is not solved well, I'm afraid I won't be able to accept Zhao'an! Yu Xiaotian suddenly opened his mouth when everyone nodded yes.
(I drank too much last night!) I'm still dizzy! Update first, then lie down for a while and go! Dizzy! )
