Although it is said that if he wants to grab Yan Siqi's territory now, in terms of strength, there will be no problem, he does not need to use all his troops, only a small number of troops are needed, and it is enough to sweep Yan Siqi away.

But Yu Xiaotian was reluctant to do this, because Yan Siqi has now sworn with him and become an ally of his, during this time, Yan Siqi and the sea wolf have a very close relationship, and everywhere Yu Xiaotian is the head of the horse, never give Yu Xiaotian any trouble, and repeatedly take the initiative to help the sea wolf run errands.

On the whole, Yan Siqi has seen the current situation clearly, and has made up his mind to form an alliance with him Yu Xiaotian, at this time, he ran to grab Yan Siqi's territory, which is obviously not suitable, even if there is a law of the jungle in this world, it is not good to pay attention to the law of the jungle, because doing so will make him lose the word morality, and it will inevitably be regarded as a joke by the people of the rivers and lakes.

Yu Xiaotian knows very well why he has developed so fast over the years, in fact, when he does things, he mainly pays attention to benevolence and righteousness, and everything often has to stand on the word morality, so people can't grasp his handle, and they can't blame him, so he has won the praise of many people in the rivers and lakes.

Now in the entire Fujian area, many small groups of pirates are looking at Yu Xiaotian's benevolence and righteousness, and when they know that they can't compete with Yu Xiaotian, they either go away to find another way out, or simply take refuge in the sea wolf, join the sea wolf, and become Yu Xiaotian's subordinate, which is also one of the main reasons for Yu Xiaotian's rapid development of strength in recent years.

On the other hand, Zheng Yiguan is now disgraced, forced to run away to Guangdong, and became a group of second-rate pirates, precisely because Zheng Yiguan lost the word morality, first he robbed the inheritance of his father-in-law Li Dan, and then tried to fight against the former eldest brother Yan Siqi, wanting to put Yan Siqi to death and engulf his territory.

Such an act, coupled with being deliberately publicized everywhere, made Zheng Yiguan a rat crossing the street, everyone shouted and beaten, and some people were dissatisfied with him internally, and finally led to the collapse of his huge group, and a large number of subordinates and ships that were taken over from Li Dan at the beginning, most of them had either been pulled away by his subordinates at this time, or they were eliminated by Yu Xiaotian, and some defected to Yu Xiaotian or other forces.

Therefore, acting in this era, completely ignoring morality, it is simply difficult to move an inch in this Jianghu, even if you are strong now, after a long time, you will be rejected by all the Jianghu people, and eventually there will be cracks inside, and the guide will eventually collapse.

Yu Xiaotian takes this point very seriously, and always secretly warns himself that he can't get carried away and do whatever he wants because of interests, so although he is dissatisfied with the farming conditions in this area of Tamsui, he will never touch Yan Siqi's interests lightly.

But although it is inconvenient for him to grab Yan Siqi's territory now, it does not mean that he will give up the entire southern part of Taiwan, because in addition to the Jianan Plain, Taiwan also has the second largest Pingtung Plain, the Yilan Plain and the Huadong Rift Valley Plain.

Among them, the Huadong Rift Valley Plain and the Yilan Plain are relatively small, but the Pingtung Plain is quite large, even if he goes all out to develop, it may not be able to be fully developed in decades or even hundreds of years.

What's better is that the Pingtung Plain is located in the southernmost part of Taiwan Island, where the terrain is flat, the temperature is high, the rainfall is abundant, the soil is fertile, the groundwater is abundant, it is the famous land of fish and rice on Taiwan Island in later generations, not only suitable for planting rice in a large area, but also very suitable for planting sugarcane, which is enough for sea wolves in a short time.

Moreover, there is also a natural port of Dagou Port, that is, the Kaohsiung Port in the later generations, and the port conditions are much better than the current Tamsui River.

Yu Xiaotian didn't have the idea of fighting over there before, firstly, because it was too close to the Dutch Dayuan Port, but because it was a tropical climate, the climate was hotter, and the threat of malaria outbreaks was greater, so he didn't dare to go there to grab land at that time.

But now it's different, the Dutch sent a fleet this time, trying to compete with him, the result was a battle at the mouth of the Tamsui River in the sand, and finally they were all annihilated, the Dutch couldn't show their strength in a short time, and then sent a strong enough fleet to find trouble with him, so at present, he is on the island of Taiwan, and he can already go sideways, even the Dutch can only rely on him to snort to stay in Dayuan.

If it weren't for the fact that he didn't want to completely expel the Dutch from the island of Taiwan and wanted to leave this trade route, he could easily expel the Dutch from the island of Taiwan with his strength now.

So the Dutch was no longer a threat, and militarily he could confidently and boldly march towards the port of Dagou.

As for the problem of malaria, now the sea wolf has also been initially solved, in the past three years, whether in Tamsui or in Jilong Bay, there have been small-scale malaria outbreaks in the summer, but after the sea wolf vigorously implemented the health system and greatly changed the local ecological environment, there was no final outbreak of unacceptable large-scale malaria.

For the limited outbreak of small-scale malaria, now the seawolf hospital has also found some ways to control it, and it is also an effective way to strengthen the nutrition of migrants and improve the resistance of individuals.

The most important thing is that Yu Xiaotian's method of using Artemisia annua as the main medicinal material to treat malaria has achieved certain results after repeated experiments by medical officials.

And now the sea wolf medical officers, began to use the method of alcohol extraction, obtained a kind of Artemisia annua extract, greatly improved the efficacy, taking this new drug malaria people, many people eventually survived, which fully shows that Artemisia annua does deal with malaria, is a very good effect.

Therefore, Yu Xiaotian believes that as long as he first burns a large area of land, fills in the stagnant ponds where various mosquitoes breed, and regularly sprinkles them in the migrant settlements, supplemented by drug treatment, he should be able to control the spread of malaria and outbreaks in a large area.

Of course, it is still unrealistic to completely eradicate malaria or eliminate malaria here, and the key is that as long as the large-scale outbreak is controlled, then even if some people die, it is acceptable.

What's more, now he has labor at hand, among these laborers, there are not only Southeast Asian monkeys who have been trafficked by pirates in the South China Sea, but also prisoners in the war, of course, these captives must be screened first, for simple people, they will naturally be left as effective human resources to use, as for the eliminated scumbags and scumbags, they belong to the labor force that can be consumed.

If he develops the port of Dagou, then these expendable laborers are the best pioneers, let them be responsible for transforming the living environment over there first, even if some people die, it will not be a big deal for him.

As long as there are these consumables that can be discarded in the early stage, when the environment over there is transformed, the risk of malaria outbreak will be reduced a lot, and in the rice fields, fish or duck farming can also effectively prevent the breeding of mosquito larvae, and it is absolutely green and environmentally friendly.

Considering these factors, Yu Xiaotian believed that the time was ripe to go south to occupy Dagou Port, so in the second half of last year, he continued to send some outpost ships to Dagou Port to start surveying the terrain.

After the preliminary preparations, he was now basically ready to move, but before he could do so, he thought it was necessary to talk to the Dutchman first.

This time, after he completed the occupation of Wai Tau Bay, he returned to Tamsui City to deal with this matter.

Waite was extremely depressed during this time, and the fleet sent to him by the East India Company was seven ships, and he thought that he could easily teach the sea wolves a lesson, and let them know that they could not be provoked by the Dutch.

But what about the result? Thinking of the fierce battle that day, he still felt cold in his heart, he really underestimated the strength of these Chinese pirates.

Although the sea wolf's warships are indeed inferior to those Western-style warships he brought, whether it is firepower or ships, they are inferior to them, but the sea wolf's fleet is expensive in number, and these pirates are well-trained, not afraid of death, and fully play their advantages, plus they also use all kinds of tricks, and he can't parry it.

At first, his carelessness also led him to the annihilation of his entire army, and the nearly two thousand sailors he brought with him, the dead and the captured, were planted in this freshwater estuary.

His defeat this time was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the East India Company, and in a short period of time, the East India Company probably did not have the ability to organize a fleet of such a scale and come here to fight the sea wolves.

As the commander, he has completely become a sinner of the company this time, even if the sea wolf puts him back now, the company does not hang him, and his future is completely ruined.

As soon as he thought of this, Waite felt that the future was bleak, but now he was not worried about the future, he was most worried about his life.

These pirates, after they caught him, threw him into this prison, although they did not abuse him too much, or beat him too much, but the quality of life was certainly not too good, just give him a little life-sustaining food every day, eat a little half full of clear soup and little water, and not wait for the next meal, and always have a hungry stomach and growl.

This is not the most uncomfortable, the most uncomfortable thing is the indifference of these pirates to him, since he was caught, he has been kept in solitary confinement, no one has come to interrogate him, no one has told him about the outside world, and now they are all wiped out, and I don't know if the company has been informed of the news.

Whether there would be anyone to ransom him and the sailors, Waite couldn't guess, and wanted to inquire, but the sea wolf tribesmen who were in charge of guarding him didn't know Dutch at all, and he was unfortunate enough to speak Chinese, so he couldn't communicate at all.

For such a long time, he could only glance at the sky from the high dungeon skylight every day, and for a very short time every day, a ray of sunlight would shine through the skylight into the cell, but it was only for a moment, and the sunlight disappeared after a while.
