As Ding Yunyi's injury improves day by day, everything in Penghu is completely on track again.
Ye Yuan had already taken up his post in Quanzhou, but obviously he had too many things to deal with when he took office as a new official, and he was unable to play his role for the time being.
In particular, the issue of troop sources that he had promised without hesitation would definitely not be solved in a short period of time, and he had to figure out a solution for these issues first.
Once his body was able to move, Ding Yunyi became a little unable to sit still.
Qin Yun and Cai Jiuzhou were in charge of matters in the shipyard. The brothers were busy training there. Everyone was concerned that the defense was not yet in good health. Those who could make their own decisions on many things tried their best to make their own decisions. Therefore, Ding Yunyi was the only one in Penghu who seemed to be idle.
generally.
Ever since he entered Penghu, Ding Yunyi has never been so relaxed.
"I want to go to Taiwan."
After calling his cronies in, Ding Yunyi startled everyone when he opened his mouth.
"No." Ye Dahai, who is very familiar with Taiwan, was the first to object: "Guardian, your body will take at least a month to recover. How can you go out at this time? And now Taiwan is Hongyi and Zheng Zhilong.
In this world, if you are in Penghu, they will not dare to touch you, but if you go to Taiwan, you will be in trouble."
"I think my body is almost in good shape." Ding Yunyi moved his arms and said with a smile: "Besides, whether it's Hongyi or Zheng Zhilong's people, who recognizes me, Ding Yunyi?"
After a pause, I had to tell my brothers what I was thinking sooner or later, so I decided to tell them today so that they could be mentally prepared and not be too abrupt in the future:
"Brothers, our situation now seems to be favorable. We defeated the big pirate Liu Xiang and threatened Fujian and Taiwan. But in fact, we are in crisis everywhere. In Taiwan, the red barbarians are staring at us, and in Fujian, Zheng Zhilong will definitely suppress us everywhere. In the past, we are in danger.
Zheng Zhilong saw that our power was weak, so he asked us to run maritime businesses to make money for him. Now that we have become more powerful, why should he not be afraid? We must make preparations as soon as possible. But Penghu is too small and has no room for development. Why?
manage?"
Ye Dahai seemed to have some realization: "Is the defense trying to trick Taiwan's brains?"
"Yes, I told you briefly before." Ding Yunyi nodded; "Fujian is locked up by Zheng Zhilong. We cannot penetrate it in the short term. If we want to develop, we can only develop in Taiwan, as long as Taiwan can have our influence.
, a three-legged situation has been formed. Once there is a change in the future, we can fish in troubled waters. I will tell you again and the news, the imperial court will not always allow the red barbarians to occupy Taiwan, and sooner or later it will be recovered!"
His words were somewhat untrue. Chongzhen did instruct Ding Yunyi to recover Taiwan without asking for instructions as soon as he had the opportunity and the conditions were ripe. However, the Ming court had no intention of doing so.
At present, the imperial court devotes all its attention to rogue bandits and Jinlu, so where can it find the energy to take care of Taiwan?
But when the brothers heard this, they all cheered up. No wonder the garrison had set its sights on Taiwan. It turned out that the imperial court was behind him to support him.
If that's the case, then everything will be easy to handle.
Ding Yunyi looked solemn: "As a garrison in Penghu, once Taiwan is regained, how can I not know myself and the enemy? I went this time just to get a feel for the situation in Taiwan and become familiar with it. As for the danger, I have also thought about it.
Father Sarozzi is a regular customer of Hongyi, and he will send another shipment to Taiwan tomorrow. I can go with the ship, and then come back with him, which will only take seven to ten days at most."
Zhang Xianxuan thought for a moment: "Going with Father Sarozzi is not really dangerous, as long as you don't reveal your identity. It's just a defense, but you need to bring two capable assistants, who can protect you at any time."
Ding Yunyi had already thought of this and said with a smile: "In short, I will definitely not take Bao Juhua and Ye Dahai with me. If I take them with me, others will see that they are not good people."
The brothers burst into laughter, and Ding Yunyi continued: "I will take Duan San'er and Ah Hu there, so that they will not attract attention."
Seeing that the garrison was carefully arranged, the brothers could not say anything else. However, Ye Dahai said uneasily: "The garrison has gone to Taiwan, and I am cruising around in the ship day and night. If anything happens to the garrison, I will take up all the warships in Penghu."
Attack Taiwan!"
Ding Yunyi laughed: "Can those Hongyi really hurt me?"
"It's a pity that Xie Tian doesn't know why there's no news at all until now, otherwise there would be someone to take care of him." Qin Yun muttered to himself on the side.
This sentence aroused Ding Yunyi's thoughts again. Yes, why is there still no news about Xie Tian? I hope I didn't misjudge the person, and Xie Tian didn't run away with three thousand taels of silver...
...
This matter needed to be carried out secretly, and apart from Ding Yunyi's cronies and Father Sarozzi, not even Ah Xi and Han Xiaoxiao were informed.
Ding Yunyi only said that he was going to Quanzhou and would return in a few days.
Seeing that Ding Yunyi was going out again before he recovered, the two girls were a little worried, but they also knew that Ding Yunyi had a stubborn temper and there was absolutely no possibility of changing anything he decided.
While helping Ding Yunyi pack his luggage, he carefully explained that he must pay attention to everything and never let the injury happen again.
Ding Yunyi responded, feeling funny in his heart. They all said that women are wordy, but now that I saw it, it turned out to be true.
He picked up "Dragon Tooth" and "Xiuchun" and looked at them, then put them back again: "You don't need to take them with you this time."
Hearing what Ding Yunyi said, Ah Xi and Han Xiaoxiao felt very relieved. They didn't even bring the treasured sword that they would not leave their bodies for a moment, thinking that there would be no danger this time.
Little did they know that the place Ding Yunyi was going to this time was actually a dangerous place where the forces of Hongyi and Zheng Zhilong were intertwined.
Seeing the two girls tidying up carefully, I remembered that they were never separated from each other when I was critically ill. I felt grateful and couldn't help but said: "When I come back this time, I will always go to see my brother-in-law and ask the second sister for permission to do things between us.
.”
Ah Xi blushed again, but Han Xiaoxiao's experience was far greater than that of Ah Xi. Hearing Ding Yunyi's words, he immediately became alert: "You are not going to Quanzhou this time, can't you see your second brother-in-law?"
Ding Yunyi immediately realized that he had made a mistake and hurriedly said as if nothing had happened: "I heard that the second brother-in-law went to Zou Fushuai's place. I'm afraid he is not in Quanzhou. This is a private matter for me. I can't let the second brother-in-law come back from Zou Fushuai's place, right?"
Han Xiaoxiao said "Oh", which showed that Ding Yunyi's eyes were wandering and uncertain, and he always felt that he was hiding something from him.
But I'm just a woman, how can I care about men's affairs? What's more, my future husband is such an indomitable hero.
