( .) "The voting model of the Presbyterian Church in Batavia is relatively democratic. (.Piaotian Literature registered members recommend this work wo.)" Ding Yunyi put down the report in his hand and said with a smile.
"Democracy? What does democracy mean?" Xie Tian was stunned for a moment and asked.
Ding Yunyi scratched his head: "Probably, it probably means...when something happens, it is not decided by any one person alone, but by everyone discussing it, so that it can be done
There will never be any one person with excessive rights..."
Xie Tian seemed to understand: "In addition to Batavia, we have also arranged the same people in the main town, including Luzon, Malacca and other places. They will lurk there for a long time, constantly sending back corresponding information, waiting for us
call......"
Ding Yunyi nodded: "Let them know that we will not take back these places for the time being, but this is not long-term. We will have to accompany them at some point..."
Trade with Batavia, Luzon, Malacca and other places is in full swing, and the layout of these places has also been launched.
Now with the power of the Tiger Guards, he is not afraid of any of them. Whether it is the Folangji people, the Hongyi people, or the Ganlusi people, Ding Yunyi is confident that he can fight them.
However, if they attack rashly and fail to succeed quickly, they will feel that they are dying and unite together. This is obviously detrimental to the Tiger Guards.
The best choice is to just take it step by step, plan it slowly, wait for the time to mature, and then destroy it all at once.
A few years, all this needs to be given a few more years...
"Third brother, something big has happened..." While they were discussing the situation in Batavia, Qin Yun hurried in: "Su Yang Qiuyuan sent an urgent report that there is a rebellion among the Rukai tribe in eastern Taiwan!
"
"What!" Upon hearing this, Ding Yunyi stood up.
Since I took control of Taiwan, except for the Guo Huaiyi incident, there has never been any rebellion, not even riots. But now, the Rukai tribe has actually rebelled?
Qin Yun took a breath: "We have been developing the eastern part for a long time, and Mr. Romande has made a great contribution, but just a dozen days ago, Romande suddenly disappeared in the virgin forest in the east...
...After Su Yang Qiuyuan found out, he immediately sent Wu Hualong and a dozen soldiers to go into the primitive forest to search, but Wu Hualong was suddenly attacked. Several brothers died... Third brother, the situation in the primitive forest is really real
It was complicated. Wu Hualong and the others were not familiar with the terrain, so they could only withdraw first. Who would have thought that the attackers would continue to set up ambushes along the way, and when they came out after all the hard work, Wu Hualong only had three people left..."
Ding Yunyi said angrily: "How dare you kill my soldiers? How do they know that the attacker is a member of the Rukai tribe?"
"Wu Hualong is quite capable." Qin Yun sighed: "Although he was ambushed everywhere, he remained calm in the face of danger. He even set a trap when he was about to escape from the virgin forest. Finally, he captured one alive.
The attacker, after asking, everything will be clear..."
Ding Yunyi nodded: "I will send people to suppress it..."
"Third brother." Qin Yun said hurriedly: "The letter from Su Yang Qiuyuan means that he wants to ask third brother to personally lead people to suppress it."
"Let me take the people there myself?" Ding Yunyi frowned.
Although he didn't quite understand the meaning of Su Yang Qiuyuan's words, he knew this person very well. Since he said this, he must have a point.
I thought for a while: "How many people from the Rukai tribe launched a rebellion?"
"There always seemed to be hundreds of people."
Ding Yunyi called Wang Wei over and asked him to select 500 elite soldiers to accompany him to the eastern region.
This was the first time that this situation had occurred in Taiwan. Ding Yunyi did not dare to neglect it. Once it was allowed to spread, it might trigger a series of consequences. He hurriedly and slowly arrived. When he arrived in the east, Su Yang Qiuyuan was already waiting there.
As soon as he saw Su Yang asking for love, Ding Yunyi opened his mouth and said: "Don't be so polite. What's going on?"
"It has been clearly interrogated that Romande has indeed fallen into the hands of the Rukai tribe." Su Yang Qiuyuan seemed unfazed: "And the attacker who attacked Wu Hualong was also a member of the Rukai tribe. Their leader is Lai Heen, a soldier from the Rukai tribe.
'..."
"Shi? What Shi?" Ding Yunyi was confused.
"That's their class division." Su Yang Qiuyuan explained patiently: "The Rukai people's class is divided into four levels. Chapter 348 In the activity square, the big boss will lead the worship to the sky, or worship to the sky with traditional mountain singing and dancing.
During the memorial ceremony, men usually wear swords, and the handles and scabbards are covered with hundreds of snake totems and human-shaped patterns, or decorated with silver and copper nails..."
"It seems that the Rukai people appeared in Taiwan together with me since the founding of the Ming Dynasty." Ding Yunyi said to himself: "But why did they kidnap Romande and kill my soldiers this time?"
"I don't know." Su Yang Qiuyuan shook his head: "The prisoner I captured died before I could interrogate him carefully. But if you want to ask more, you might as well ask Abawang, the big leader of the Rukai tribe.
I have already invited him here."
He is careful in his work and does everything before Ding Yunyi has to ask him.
Abawang, the big leader of the Rukai tribe, was about fifty years old. When he saw Ding Yunyi, he was extremely humble. Ding Yunyi greeted him briefly and asked about Lai Heen.
Abawang sighed: "Lord of the town, this Lai Heen was originally the number one warrior of our Rukai tribe and the best at hunting, but his temper was very bad. There were several times when he got into fights with others and I scolded him several times.
sentence, and even gave him a whip. As a result, he felt that he had been humiliated, and in anger, he took a few people and ran into the virgin forest. He was already very influential in the clan, but in the end, under his call
Over the past few years, hundreds of people have searched for and followed him. But why he attacked your soldiers this time, I really don’t know."
Ding Yunyi nodded slightly: "Besides his bad temper, what other shortcomings does this person have?"
"There is no such thing." Abawang thought carefully for a while, shook his head and said, "In fact, if I have to say yes, it means that I like drinking..."
"Oh, I understand. You go ahead..." Ding Yunyi said thoughtfully.
Abawang stood up, hesitated to speak, and after a while he made up his mind and said: "Master of the town, I heard that Lai Heen attacked your soldiers, which is a capital crime. However, he is really not a bad person.
Please, sir, please spare his life if possible..."
Ding Yunyi said calmly: "I don't know whether he is a good person or a bad person. If you kill my soldiers, you must pay with your life. Otherwise, the souls of those brothers in heaven will not be reconciled. Abawang, you go first, I will deal with this matter fairly."
Something.”
After Abawang left, Ding Yunyi pondered for a while: "Su Yang, what do you think of this matter?"
Su Yang Qiuyuan had already made up his mind: "From the official point of view, it is just four words, 'suppress and appease with use'. Lai Horn kidnapped Romande and killed our soldiers. I think there must be a reason. Chief, the reason why I asked you to kiss me
We came here because there are ten thousand people in the Rukai tribe, and Lai Heen’s reputation is very loud. If this matter is not handled well, it will not only cause serious dissatisfaction among the Rukai tribe, but also cause other tribes to be suspicious of us.
...Therefore, apart from the mayor’s visit, there is no other person involved in this matter.”
"You have created a big problem for me." Ding Yunyi frowned: "Although they are hiding in the virgin forest, it is not too difficult to destroy them. The key is how to destroy them...
..."
Ding Yunyi was thinking about this problem all the way from here to the virgin forest. It was not until Wu Hualong appeared in front of him that Ding Yunyi came back to his senses.
"Headquarters, my subordinates are incompetent and have lost so many brothers!" When he saw Ding Yunyi, Wu Hualong's face was full of shame.
"It has nothing to do with you. You only brought a dozen people with you. It's pretty good that you came out alive." Ding Yunyi encouraged him a few words. He saw a young man wearing a lily headdress standing next to Wu Hualong and knew that this was also a member of the Rukai tribe.
Already.
He heard that the lily is the national flower of the Rukai people. Wearing it on the headdress symbolizes nobility and supreme glory. The tribe's respect for the lily has been elevated to spiritual significance, and it even represents the social order and ethics of the ethnic group.
Seeing that the main town was paying attention to this young man, Wu Hualong said hurriedly: "This is the guide I specially invited, named Qi Wanshan. Qi Wanshan, this is the lord of the main town."
"General...General Town..." Qi Wanshan seemed a little scared.
"Don't be afraid, I won't eat people." Ding Yunyi smiled and comforted: "We are going in to find Lai Hornen this time, are you afraid?"
"Afraid." Qi Wanshan didn't hide anything: "But Mr. Wu promised that as long as I bring you in, he will give me a lot of money, so I am willing to take you in no matter how scared I am."
Ding Yunyi smiled slightly and waved his hand: "Brothers, 500 people are divided into ten teams, search carefully and move forward!"
He took his brothers into the vast virgin forest...
This is a sea of trees and a paradise for birds. Branches are connected with branches and leaves are connected with leaves. There are no roads and no human habitation here. But it is a paradise for animals. There is no smoking here, and it is a pure land...
.
"Snake, snake!" suddenly a soldier shouted.
A big shot was staring at these uninvited guests who suddenly appeared with blood-red eyes.
The companion beside him raised his knife and was about to kill the big snake. Qi Wanshan hurriedly said: "You must not!"
He desperately stopped the soldiers' movements, and then let out a strange whistle. After hearing it, the big snake twisted its body and gradually disappeared.
Qi Wanshan was relieved, took a long breath, and bowed several times in the direction where the snake disappeared.
"Qi Wanshan, what does this mean?" Ding Yunyi asked curiously.
"Snake is our god." Qi Wanshan said respectfully: "A long time ago, in Darobaring Lake, there lived a lake god Aididinga. He was the ancestor of the Rukai people. By chance,
, met Banen, the daughter of the leader of the Ali Society. Her clear eyes and elegant figure deeply attracted the Lake God. In order to win the favor of the girl, the Lake God played the flute and told his love, which was sweet to the ears.
The sound of the flute finally touched the girl's heart, and the two weaved the melody of love in the mountains and forests. One day, the Lake God came to the leader's house to propose marriage. Banen said to his family, "The Lake God will stay at our house tonight, please everyone."
Don't get up too early.' The leader was puzzled and decided to get up early to see what was going on. So before dawn, he lit a firewood to see what was going on. He suddenly discovered that his daughter's body was wrapped around a huge hundred-step snake, but she was
With a happy expression on his face, the leader suddenly realized that it turned out that the lake god was the legendary hundred-step snake that the tribesmen feared. On the day of the wedding, the lake god and his subordinates brought ancient pots, iron pots, betel nuts, and noble and beautiful colored glaze.
Zhu Chuan came to the leader's house to get married. The leader counted the betrothal gifts one by one and hosted a banquet for the guests. After that, the wedding procession set off to the residence of the Lake God. Banen said to his parents and villagers who were seeing him off, "In order to show piety, from now on
When our tribesmen pass by the sacred lake, please wear white clothes. In order to express my memory of you, I will prepare warm food for you to take, and please leave the hind legs of the prey." After saying this, he walked towards the lake.
As we walked, the lake rippled, reflecting the pattern of a hundred-step snake, and Banen finally arrived at her husband's house. Therefore, we must not harm the snake."
Ding Yunyi suddenly realized it, and immediately gave his soldiers an order not to hurt snakes. (Your support is welcome, it is my biggest motivation.)
