Although the people in the government had long known that they were going to seal Maoshengyuan, they did not do it immediately, and there were still many people who secretly passed the news to Li Yi, asking Li Yi to quickly clean up and transfer the goods, until many days later, they sent messengers to various places Maoshengyuan to start seizing them, but after these officials arrived at Maoshengyuan, the treasury here was already empty, only a small number of bulky and difficult to transfer goods were left, and there was not much valuable at all.

As for Mao Shengyuan's books, there were only a few hundred taels of silver left, and even Li Yi had already left Fuzhou City in a swaggering sedan chair the afternoon before they started, and disappeared from everyone's sight, which means that there was nothing to catch except some shops.

When Zhu Yifeng heard the news, he was so angry that he knew that someone had revealed the news in advance, so that Mao Shengyuan transferred the property in a hurry, and Li Yi also ran away, so that when he could seize Mao Shengyuan, he confiscated some assets, which could be used as a reward for meritorious soldiers or funds for compensating the wounded and wounded soldiers, but in the end, there was almost nothing, only some shops and properties that could not be run away, even if these things were confiscated and sold, they were not worth much. Moreover, if the officials in various places deduct some of it, there will be nothing left.

Therefore, Zhu Yifeng can only be said to be very discouraged by such a result, but there is no way to do it, and now that the matter has been made public, then he can no longer cover it up, so he can only start to prepare for the sea wolf on Nanri Island with great fanfare.

And this process involved a lot of people, including Zheng Yiguan, Yan Siqi, of course, Chu Cailao, and even the Dutch.

Zheng Yiguan is the current enemy of the sea wolf, and he is very familiar with the land of Fujian, such news cannot be hidden from him, when the Fujian government made the decision to attack the sea wolf not long after, Zheng Yiguan received the news, and immediately became excited, ready to take the opportunity to the sea wolf to help the government clean up the surname Yu.

And Yan Siqi immediately made a decision not to stand on the opposite side of Yu Xiaotian, because now after a period of interaction with the sea wolf, he has completely felt the strength of the sea wolf, and he is not optimistic about the government attacking the sea wolf this time, and if he stands on the wrong side now, once the sea wolf defeats the official army again this time, he will definitely not be spared at that time.

So at this time, he must make a correct choice, otherwise he may not be able to continue to survive, and now he himself understands very well that he Yan Siqi is actually not a completely independent pirate group, to some extent, he has become a vassal of the sea wolf, without the support of Yu Xiaotian, and now under the pressure of Zheng Yiguan, it is difficult for him to survive.

Therefore, Yan Siqi chose to stand on the side of the sea wolf without hesitation, and immediately reported the news he got to Yu Xiaotian, and immediately stated that if the sea wolf needed it, he was willing to lead his troops to Nanri Island to help the sea wolf.

Yu Xiaotian immediately accepted his kindness and thanked him, but he did not agree to let him participate in this conflict, just asked Yan Siqi to help him look at Zheng Yiguan, even if it was to help the sea wolf.

As for Chu Cailao, after hearing the news, his mood was very complicated, there was a grudge between him and the sea wolf, but now he had to rely on the sea wolf, such a thing happened at this time, he didn't know how to choose to stand in line for a while.

Last year, when the government wanted to attack Nanri Island for the first time, he was really excited for a while, and even prepared to take advantage of the time when the official army and the sea wolf were fighting, no matter whether the sea wolf won or lost, it might end up being very expensive, and he planned to take advantage of the sea wolf's weakness to run to take revenge, at least to control Xinghua Mansion and the coastal area of Fuzhou in his hands.

But as a result, the sea wolf did not give the official army a chance to attack at all, and when the official army was still assembling, he ran to beat the official army and the naval division, and finally the sea wolf could only be stillborn, which made him happy for a while, and also made him realize the real power of the sea wolf.

And this year, under the pressure of Zheng Yiguan, he had to bow to the sea wolf and repair the relationship with Yu Xiaotian, and finally won Yu Xiaotian's "support" and sold him a lot of cannons, so that he took the opportunity to beat Zheng Yiguan during the Haicheng Rebellion, and also took the opportunity to make a lot of benefits in the Haicheng area.

This made him see the power of the sea wolf, plus during this time he often sent Ma Xiang to Nanri Island to deal with the sea wolf, Ma Xiang also saw the real strength of the sea wolf on Nanri Island, which made him know that he was not the opponent of the sea wolf at all, and now the government was going to attack the sea wolf, which made him suddenly feel in a dilemma.

Deep down, he hates Yu Xiaotian very much, if it weren't for Yu Xiaotian, he was still the boss of the Fujian Sea, this status is difficult for ordinary people to shake, but since he was beaten by the sea wolf and suffered heavy losses, his status on the sea in this area has plummeted, and now he has become a second-rate pirate group.

So if you want Chu Cailao not to hate Yu Xiaotian, it is impossible, but Chu Cailao also understands the power of the sea wolf, and he can also see from the news revealed by the government this time that the government has not really thought about completely exterminating the sea wolf.

The government's plan is actually very simple, that is, to squeeze the sea wolf out of Nanri Island, as long as Nanri Island is recovered, then they can sing and win, as for whether to destroy the sea wolf, the government itself is actually very clear, they are afraid that it will be difficult for them to do this, with the current military strength of Fujian, it is difficult for them to completely exterminate the sea wolf.

What's more, the sea wolf is no longer just one nest of Nanri Island, the sea wolf has now built a freshwater city in the north of Taiyuan Island, and the number of immigrants has reached tens of thousands, in fact, Tamsui City is now the most important nest of the sea wolf, and Nanri Island is now in the status of the sea wolf, and has retreated to the second-tier position.

And Yu Xiaotian temporarily took Nanri Island as his old camp, in fact, it was only because Nanri Island was closer to the land, and it was also convenient for him to control the surrounding sea and fishing grounds, even if he abandoned Nanri Island now, the blow to the sea wolf was not too big, and the foundation of the sea wolf would still not be shaken.

Therefore, in Chu Cailao's opinion, although on the surface this time, the government seems to be very sure of the people, in fact, they are only limited in attack, not to drive out the sea wolves.

And the sea wolf itself in this battle, no matter what the circumstances, will not be hit hard, now if he turns his head and turns his face with the sea wolf, helping the government or preparing to get the benefits of the fisherman, then the sea wolf will turn around in the future, I am afraid that he Chu Cai Lao will not be able to mix it up again.

After thinking about this, Chu Cai finally made a difficult decision, that is, in this conflict between the official and the sea wolf, standing on the side of the sea wolf, at least he must be neutral and not participate in the conflict between them, so as not to be settled with him by the sea wolf in the future.

But what everyone didn't expect was that the Dutch, who were entrenched in the big staff, were also wrapped up this time.

Originally, the Dutch had nothing to do with this matter, but this time the government unexpectedly sent an invitation to the Dutch, wanting to ask the Dutch to help the government and deal with the sea wolves together.

Although Zhu Yifeng has been vigorously repairing war equipment, preparing sailors, and purchasing warships and artillery for more than half a year, he is still not too sure that he can capture Nanri Island and defeat the fleet of sea wolves.

Especially in dealing with the sea wolf fleet, Zhu Yifeng is still a little jealous of the sea wolf, because the sea wolf fleet is rumored to be very powerful, with fierce and strong firepower, and is good at fighting in formation at sea.

Although now after his rectification, the Fujian Navy Division has made great progress, replenished a lot of ship cannons, and also ordered Yu Zhigao and Zhang Jiace to play the sailors, but whether it is the opponent of the sea wolf, he really has no bottom in his heart.

And this is also what many people are worried about, but in the end, someone came up with an idea for him, that is, to ask the red-haired people to help help, and use the advantage of the red-haired people's big plywood ships to help the government exterminate the sea wolf, at least expel the sea wolf from Nanri Island.

As for whether the red-haired people are willing to help, they also have bargaining chips for exchange, that is, the problem of maritime trade in the hands of the government, the government can put forward conditions, if the red-haired people are willing to help, then the government will allow maritime merchants to go to the big man to trade with the red-haired people, for which the government can provide some convenience.

But if the red-haired people are not willing to help, the next step of the government will be to ban the maritime merchants, and then go to the Dayuan to trade with them, and Zhu Yifeng and his staff members can see very clearly, these red-haired people have traveled thousands of miles to the coast of the Ming Dynasty, in fact, the main purpose is to trade with the Ming Dynasty.

Now that they have finally settled in Dayuan Station on Taiyuan Island, if the Fujian side forbids merchants to trade with them, this will undoubtedly be an important blow to the red-haired people.

So in their opinion, the red-haired people are afraid that they can't withstand such coercion and temptation, and will agree to their conditions to cooperate with the government and attack the sea wolves.

As for who to send to talk to the red-haired people, of course they have already chosen someone, that is Xu Xinsu of Quanzhou, because everyone knows the way, Xu Xinsu is also a sea lord, and has dealt with the red-haired people the most over the years, controls the raw silk trade of the entire Fujian, and can send a lot of raw silk to the red-haired people every year.

And raw silk is also the most wanted thing for the red-haired people, in addition to they can get a part of the raw silk in Japan, the most important supply place is Chinese mainland, and it is precisely the raw silk trade in Fujian and Zhejiang, most of the sources are controlled in the hands of Xu Xinsu, Xu Xinsu has a pivotal position in the eyes of the red-haired people.
