Liu Xiang was put down, and the pirates were suddenly leaderless, and the soldiers who followed Zheng Zhihu to the enemy ship rushed to the bow of the ship and released Zheng Zhihu in the iron wire fishing net. This poor young man was plotted by someone, and he was taken hostage, and now he was full of fire and had nowhere to come out, and as soon as he jumped out of the fishing net, he immediately swung a big axe, and with a click, he cut several enemies in half, and when he was done, he stepped on Liu Xiang's corpse twice.

Just because of the short-term peace brought by Liu Xiang's hostage-taking, it was suddenly broken, and a new round of fierce battles began on the sea, which was just Zheng Zhilong's overwhelming advantage, and Liu Xiang's men surrendered and committed suicide.

Zheng Zhilong only had time to look up at the battle situation on Yi Yun's side at this time, and when he turned his eyes, he saw that there were five remnants of the Dutch galleon, all of which were already full of King Jiashan's men, needless to say, that side was also a big victory.

"Ha, win!" Zheng Zhilong couldn't help but laugh happily: "This time, our army has finally won a big victory. ”

The remnant sun is like blood!

Zheng Zhilong sailed to the edge of Wang'an Island with Yi Yun's fleet and temporarily camped on this lonely island. After a day of cleaning up the battlefield and cleaning up the mess, the Dutch soldiers who surrendered were now all bundled into rice dumplings and thrown in the bilge, intending to take them back and use them as coolies. As for Liu Xiang and his group who surrendered, Zheng Zhilong did not remember his previous suspicions and generously recruited them into his army. After all, they were all the old brothers of Fengyun Eighteen Zhi, and he didn't plan to worry too much.

The two of them took a break and sat down on the beach by the sea of Wang'an Island.

"Lord Wang, this time the whole world is flat!" Zheng Zhilong said with a smile: "The country of the Netherlands is thousands of miles away from us. This time Putmans was killed by us, and the Dutch fleet stationed in Victoria Harbor should also be completely wiped out, for a long time. They don't have the strength to send troops to us anymore. ”

Iyun nodded, he couldn't figure out where it was for Victoria or something. I haven't even heard of it, since Zheng Zhilong said that the troops there are all wiped out, it should be all wiped out. In fact, he can also roughly know some historical processes, after all, this world has many similarities with his own world, although the Dutch look powerful now, but the real power should be the British, and soon the British will defeat the Dutch and become a real empire on which the sun never sets. The threat of the Dutch. This is the only time, and there should be no more in the future.

The next trouble is the British, Yi Yun doesn't want the British to hit him again one day, he frowned, and said seriously: "Governor Zheng, what do you think of the Westerners?"

Zheng Zhilong hummed and said: "Westerners are very advanced in science and technology, and they are very motivated. They actually took a sea boat and came to our Dameng country thousands of miles away, just to buy some goods to go back, which shows that they are a group of adventurous spirit. Enterprising people. And what is interesting is that most of these Westerners who came to the East have a power of attorney from the king or the emperor in their hands, which shows that the emperor of their country also supports such an act, and it seems that the whole country in the West has a far-sighted vision. ”

"Well, sort of!" Yi Yun nodded: "Westerners have been studying astronomy, geography and other things, and they already have a considerable degree of understanding of the earth, and our Dameng country, our eyes are still looking at the land under our feet, from this point of view, our vision is indeed much behind." One looks at the problem from the perspective of development, and the other looks at the problem from a conservative perspective, even if the conservative side is stronger now, but in time, the strength and weakness will be rewritten. ”

"What does the prince mean?" said Zheng Zhilong.

"I mean, we also have to have a vision of development and be enterprising!" Yi Yun waved and pointed to the West, "Are you interested in seeing what the West looks like?"

"Of course I'm interested!" Zheng Zhilong said with a smile: "My previous goal was to take Dayuan Island, but now Dayuan Island has been taken by my son, and I don't have anything I want to do for the time being, so I can go to the West Ocean to go around." But...... I'm afraid that my strength alone is not enough, if the prince can also go together, then let's leave immediately. ”

"I can't go. Yi Yun spread his hands helplessly: "The Great Meng Country is in chaos, the rebels in the southwest are in turmoil, the Manchu and Qing iron cavalry in the northeast are rampant, although the rebellion of the Japanese Invaders has been calmed, but the roots of the Wolves are still in Fusang and have not been pulled out, and the emperor's sister needs help now...... I can't leave at this time!"

"Then the prince means to ask me to go alone?" Zheng Zhilong wiped a handful of sweat and said, "I...... I'm afraid that I can't catch it. ”

"Although you go alone, you are not fighting alone. Yi Yun spread his hands and said: "You are not a pirate now, you are the governor of Penghu in the Great Meng Kingdom, and you are also the governor of the Great Staff, when you are in trouble, you are already qualified to apply for assistance from the imperial court." And I'm not going to let you kill you directly to the Western ......."

He paused and said: "You know, the Westerners came to the Great Meng Country from thousands of miles away, and they didn't come directly all at once, they defeated many small countries along the way, established ports and strongholds in these countries, and then relied on these strongholds, extending their strength step by step, and came to our Great Meng Country." What I want you to do is to sail westward along the coastline south of the Great Meng Country, occupy ports and build bases along the way, and move your strength to the West step by step, and eventually spread all over the world. ”

Zheng Zhilong: "......"

"It sounds difficult, but it's actually not difficult!" Yi Yun laughed: "There are many small countries along the way, which are easy to bully, such as that, Vietnam ......"

"Vietnam, I haven't heard of it......," Zheng Zhilong said strangely.

"Oh, by the way, it should be called Annan!" Yi Yun smiled: "In a country like this big mung bean, you go to a dozen ships and bombard the coastal cities, and then you can blackmail the other party's king and sign a lease agreement, so that the other party can lease a port to you, this is a very simple thing, and the Westerners have long proved it with their actions, and this is very effective." ”

"It doesn't seem appropriate to do this, Annan is a country that our Emperor Taizu has set not to conquer!" Zheng Zhilong pretended to be serious and said: "I am no longer a pirate, I am an official of the imperial court, and I should abide by the rules of the imperial court." ”

"Haha, you are less here, you have to be willing to listen to Taizu's last words, my brother will not be friends with you, you are not such an honest person. Eyun burst out laughing.

"Well, I'm really not an honest person. Zheng Zhilong spread his hands and said: "But the matter of me going to conquer the countries of Southeast Asia, after all, it is against the teachings of Taizu, once the officials of the imperial court know, they will keep dragging me back, if I am still a pirate, of course I am not afraid of them, pat my ass and leave." But now it's different, I have a family, a room, a stronghold, and an official position, if the court drags me back, takes my official position, and arrests my family, then ......"

Yi Yun knew what he meant by this, and he had to help him stop it. However, Yi Yun also knew that he should help him block it, after all, the person who supported him to do this was himself, and if he asked others to do things, he had to help others take care of their aftermath, which was a man's responsibility. He nodded and said, "You don't have to worry about things in the court, the emperor's cousin is partial to me, and I'm not afraid of those officials." ”

"Of course I know that the emperor is partial to the prince!" Zheng Zhilong laughed: "Last time you brought me the agreement stamped with the emperor's seal, I knew it." But...... Lord Wang, I have something to remind you...... What the emperor said was not as useful as you thought. ”

"Huh?" Yi Yun Daqi: "What the emperor said is useless, who said it is useful?"...,

"Donglin Party!" Zheng Zhilong's hand pointed in the direction of the imperial capital: "The emperor of our Dameng country is famous and doesn't care about anything, I don't need to say much about what style this emperor Zhu Qingqing is, the emperor of the previous generation is named Zhu Youxiao, who only does carpenter work all day long, and never does business." In the past, there was an emperor named Zhu Zhanji, who loved to play with crickets and didn't do anything serious. Further back, there are those who like piano and flag calligraphy and painting, those who like birds, insects and fish, and those who like to dress up as generals to fight and play...... In short, the emperor doesn't care about things, and all government affairs fall on the head of the civil official group, that is to say, in the last few hundred years, the great Meng country has been in charge of the government by the civil official group headed by the Donglin Party, although the emperor is nominally the Son of Heaven, but in fact, if the people of the Donglin Party do not cooperate, they can't do anything. ”

After saying so much, he also had a dry mouth, and paused and said: "Lord Wang, although you have the support of the emperor, if the civil official group drags you back, it will be a lot of trouble." ”

"Is that so?" Yi Yun's brows furrowed, in fact, he also knew a little simple historical knowledge, in another world, the Ming Dynasty was bad in the hands of civil officials, and the last future emperor, Emperor Chongzhen, had sighed: "The civil officials misunderstood me!" I didn't expect that in this world, the civil official group also had a very large strength.

"I have a eunuch party in my hand!" Yi Yun couldn't help but say: "Through the eunuch party, you can fight against the Donglin party." ”

"All the power of the eunuchs comes from the emperor. Zheng Zhilong said seriously: "If the emperor can't use a thing, the eunuch party can't be used. ”

"I see!" Yi Yun paid attention to it now, not afraid of god-like opponents, afraid of pig-like teammates, if he was working hard and enterprising, the Donglin Party was dragging behind, this was really a troublesome thing.

Yiyun has played games like dota and lol before, and when he meets a teammate like a pig, it's a big deal to spray for a while, and after spraying, he blacks things out, but in real life, it's not okay to do this. Your teammate isn't going to die if you spray, he'll continue to fight against you.

"I understand, Governor Zheng, in short, you do your own thing, and the Donglin Party will take care of it. Yi Yun said with a calm face. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
