559 5,000 Soldiers at Night (10)

There are some roots in human nature that are indistinguishable from nations and civilizations.

For example, lack of confidence in oneself, and such as comparison.

Li Zhenxu took advantage of these two points, re-seated after Xiao Lu's hand, and kept silent about what had just happened, as if it was a trivial matter.

Of course, the people will not bow their heads and ask Li Zhenxu to teach such complicated and beautiful sacrificial rituals. However, out of the inferiority complex that I can't even perceive, and comparison, a small seed has taken root in the hearts of these fans.

When he arrived at the outskirts of the big belly country, Li Zhenxu was not in a hurry.

He spent several days in this friendly village, performing magical magic twice, and finally waited for the messenger of the pot-bellied king Alamy. This is entirely because the word of mouth of Taoism has spread to the Big Belly Society, and the King of the Sun, Alami, happens to be tortured by the "ghost sleep" and wants to ask this Han Taoist priest to exorcise ghosts.

At this time, Chen Nianzu was already convinced of Li Zhenxu's supernatural powers, and volunteered to prepare magic weapons for Li Daochang. Li Zhenxu only saw one side of Alamy, and knew that this Fanzi King was actually a liver stagnation, dampness and heat obstruction, so he had no energy all day long, drowsy, and easy to wake up with nightmares at night.

This is because the aborigines have lived in wetlands for a long time and like to eat raw and cold vegetables and fruits, so they are easily troubled by dampness and heat. As for liver stagnation, it is stimulated by other external factors.

This stimulus is the red Yifan from the south.

In 1625, after the Dutch were driven out of Penghu by the Ming army, they built the city of Gelanza in Dayuan Yikun, which began to serve as the center of domination of Taiwan.

In 1642, Anthony Thony, then general of the governor of Batavia? Fan? Dimon sent troops to expel the Spaniards at Chicken Coop (Keelung) in the northern part of the island, and changed the city of Santo Domingo, which was built by the Spaniards, to Fort Anthony.

After gaining two strongholds in the north and south, the Dutch regarded themselves as the masters of the whole of Taiwan and sent troops south to conquer the aboriginal tribes. Two years ago, that is, the eighteenth year of Chongzhen. In 1645, the Dutch attacked the kingdom of Da Belly and three months later completely conquered this tribal alliance, thus ruling the entire western part of Taiwan.

The humiliation that Alamy received was enough to be the trigger for his illness.

He has always felt ashamed of his ancestors, so it is natural that the "ancestors" will punish him in their dreams.

For the doctors of the Ming Dynasty, as long as they are not too mediocre. It doesn't feel tricky to encounter such a condition.

Li Zhenxu knew it in his heart, but said in his mouth: "Sure enough, it is an evil spirit, the lord of the country can rest assured, when the poor Taoist disciples send magic weapons, they can expel the evil spirits." ”

The witches of the Potbelly Country did not have the concept of inviolability of divine rights, and because they had not been able to heal the king's ghost sleep for a long time, they naturally hoped that the Han sorcerers could help.

After Li Zhenxu moved to live in the Big Belly Society, he was surprised to find that there were other Han people coming and going here, and he heard that there were still Han people living in the Shalu Society in the north. I have a deeper understanding of the livelihood ecology of this island.

Chen Nianzu returned to the village, told the cause and effect, and took Li Zhenxu's disciples to the Big Belly Society, and seven days passed after this coming-and-going.

Li Zhenxu got a line, turned the medicine into water, and drew a talisman with the medicinal juice. Burn the talisman paper during the practice, soak it in the potion that has prepared it, and let the potbelly king take it. Psychological soothing plus medication to help. Seven days later, the potbelly king improved, and he was even more convinced of this Han Taoist priest.

This is the Heavenly Master's old skill. It has been used since the ancestor Zhang Daoling, and it will be able to coax people for another five hundred years.

Li Zhenxu's trick worked, and he struck while the iron was hot, and performed the miracle of "knotting flags".

The Taoist priests hang the flags on bamboo trees up to three feet high, and the five flags at the bottom of the flags sway in the wind. When Gao Gong casts a spell, these five flags will form knots of different styles. According to this knot, it is judged which immortal is on the altar. This set of methods is much more clever than the water cure, and it can even remain mysterious under the camera, which is amazing, and it is naturally even more handy to deal with these people who are not even primitive religions.

Although the Dutch also promoted Christianity on the island. But compared to Li Zhenxu, it is ten million times more difficult. Because Christianity is a foreign religion, it is already difficult to explain the doctrines, let alone the teachings of Christianity that are contrary to the beliefs of the indigenous peoples. However, Li Zhenxu is not a "missionary", he is more like secretly stealing the right to interpret the beliefs of the aborigines.

The aborigines believed in their ancestors, and Li Zhenxu taught them to set up tablets.

The aborigines believed in natural spirits, and Li Zhenxu set up statues for them.

The aborigines sacrificed their heads, and Li Zhenxu used flour to make steamed buns......

At least the taste of steamed bread is much better than that of human blood wine, and it is safer to make steamed bread than to let the clansmen "get out of the grass". In particular, the work of making steamed buns was carried out by the witches of the village community, which further weakened the power of the men, which made the older grandmothers more acceptable.

Under the efforts of this Gao Zhen, the Potbelly Kingdom was full of trust and favor for the Ming Kingdom on the other side of the strait, and even began to believe that the Han and Taiwanese were brothers in the same lineage.

At the beginning of October of the twentieth year of Chongzhen, King Alami of Fanzi took a big ship of the Ming army and set foot on the land outside the island for the first time.

……

Rumble!

The Type 19 military artillery roared, and the huge projectile flew towards the target at a speed visible to the naked eye, which was a mound as high as a few feet. The moment the projectile hit the mound, the earth let out a slight tremble, and the entire thick mound was blasted into a splash of dirt and almost razed.

Alamy, who had just learned to use the clairvoyant, was stunned by the fright, and the clairvoyant mirror in his hand was almost out of his hand. The guards beside him gently helped him, which made him feel at ease.

Fang Jiahong was responsible for entertaining this fan boy king who crossed the sea, so he naturally took all this into his eyes, and couldn't help but laugh in his heart.

These barbarians had not yet entered the age of firearms, and the only iron blades they had were broken. In Fang Jiahong's view, it was quite a waste to use artillery and firecrackers to show the might of the Ming army. Let them see the salvo of bows and arrows and the forest of long knives, it should be enough to deter.

"The Red Hairy is by no means an opponent of the Heavenly Soldiers." Ganzai? Alamy made a solemn judgment.

Fang Jiahong had heard of the Dutch's gun platoon tactics, which were similar to those of the Ming army, but their number of soldiers was a hard wound. Even at the time of the war with the Spaniards, there were no more than 5,000 troops, and now the total strength is only 1,200, and they are stationed at Geranza in the south and Fort Anthony in the north.

Alami had seen Hongmaoyi's gun tactics with his own eyes, and he was angry about it, and seeing that the Han people also had such a tactic, it seemed to be more powerful than Hongyi. And there were more people, which made him feel excited.

"We are bound to sweep away the Hongmaoyi, punish the profiteers, and let the islanders live the same good life as the Han people." Fang Jiahong swore an oath.

It was the first time for Chen Nianzu to see the officers and soldiers when he was so old, and he was even more excited, but he heard that the officials and soldiers said that they would punish profiteers. I can't help but put my ears up, hoping that he can continue.

Seven or eight out of ten Fujianese people on Taiwan Island are profiteers.

The Han people exchanged salt, cloth, bronze utensils and other items with the aborigines for deer skins, venison, and fish. If anyone really thinks that the Han people are comfortable with the difference in the price of the trade, it is undoubtedly very naΓ―ve. In order to plunder higher profits, merchants do everything they can, and shoddy and mixed up are common tricks. There are even people who rely on the strength of the crowd and the strength of the soldiers to take it by force.

This is why some Han Chinese can mix with the aborigines, while others regard them as enemies.

Alami listened to Fang Jiahong's assurance. also swore to Zu Ling: "We will never be enemies of the Han people, and we will fight against Hongyifan!" He added, "When do the Heavenly Soldiers plan to attack Hongmaoyi?" ”

Fang Jiahong smiled and said, "At the beginning of next year." Before that, the army needs some preparation. I don't know if the king can contact all ethnic groups in Taiwan for our army, and when the time comes, they will participate in the grand event! ”

Alamy has no objection to this. In his opinion, the Han people are more reliable than the Hongyi people, not to mention that the two tribes are still brothers who have been separated for thousands of years - at least they are both black-haired and black-eyed.

However, the indigenous communities living near Gerancha do not think so.

The Hongyi people are called "blue-eyed people" in their name, and some people call them "red-haired relatives". They believed that it was these Hongyi who drove away the Han pirates and freed them from being bullied and enslaved.

This also has something to do with the policy of the Dutch in Taiwan.

Originally, the Dutch did not levy taxes from the aborigines. And always provoke the relationship between the aborigines, so that they "grass" each other. Then co-opt one company and strike at another. In 1635, six years after the Madouxi incident, the Dutch retaliated against the Madoushe, and their army included 2,000 soldiers of the Xingang Society.

"I heard that the Han people are coming!" There are strange rumors circulating in the Xingang Society.

Rumours spread like wings from the mouths of the natives to the ears of the Dutch governor, Mr. Offat.

Alfoat joined the United East India Company in 1640. Prior to that, he was only a school assistant and had no business experience. After arriving in the Far East, his managerial talents were soon discovered by the Viceroy General, who was sent to Dejima to serve as the prefect of the Dutch merchant office in Japan.

It is in Dejima. Ofoat learns to sell bootlegged goods and abducts a Japanese mistress.

Now, O'Fovat sits by the pool in the backyard of the Governor's Office, with his silk shirt exposed, reading William's letters from Fuzhou in the sunlight. Most of the content of this letter is an exaggerated praise for the prosperity of the Ming Kingdom, and the remaining half is about how graceful and polite the real Ming nobles were.

As for the mission of the trip, Mr. Van Gogh only said: "The Ming still have concerns about opening up the whole territory of Fujian, and the ban on Ming ships going to Manila is very displeasing to the Ming people." ”

"It's like a declaration of war." O'Fowart remembered the uncomfortable rumor and seemed to be corroborated by the letter.

"But my dear, the ships of the Ming Kingdom have not stopped going to Dayuan." The Japanese mistress, with her long jet-black hair, walked silently behind O'Fowart like a sorcerer's cat.

"I know a guy, he doesn't warn anyone before he makes a move." "On the contrary, he is extracting information from our poor Mr. van Gogh to test our determination and bottom line of resistance," O'Fowart said. Besides, the first official still needs to wait. ”

"What are you waiting for?" (To be continued......)

PS: Ask for recommended tickets and monthly passes. There is another thing that is actually quite depressing to say...... Before going to press, I accidentally watched a short video of Shanghai daytime fireworks, and it was Taiwanese Gao who set off a large number of fireworks on the Huangpu River, and the environmental pollution caused was really shocking. At the end of the short film, there was even a loudspeaker to express his gratitude to the relevant departments and the audience...... Xiao Tang just wants to say that if he doesn't protect his land, he will have no place to stand; If you don't protect your air, it's bound to be a luxury to breathe. No one living in Shanghai, no matter how long they have lived, should not let this kind of foolish behavior go unnoticed.
