Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Ding Yunyi's bravery greatly inspired the morale of the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty Navy, and also greatly weakened the Dutch's will to fight.

    After a short battle, the Dutch on this ship chose to surrender.  This also became the first Dutch warship captured by the Ming Dynasty Navy.

    In this battle, the Ming Dynasty Navy won a complete victory.  Four Dutch warships were sunk and burned, and one was captured alive. The rest of the Dutch warships were severely damaged and then escaped.  However, the fifty warships brought by the pirate Liu Xiang to assist in the battle were all destroyed.

    The cry of "Long Live" resounded across the sea. This was a great victory in the Ming Dynasty naval battle!

    Looking at the cheering brothers, Ding Yunyi felt the thrill and excitement of battle for the first time.

    Although it is now the sixth year of Chongzhen's reign and the Ming Dynasty is suffering from internal and external troubles, the Ming Dynasty's navy is still extremely powerful. It killed the European maritime hegemon Holland and abandoned its armor, resulting in heavy losses.

    The only thing Ding Yunyi couldn't figure out was how could such a great Ming Dynasty die so easily?

    Bao Juhua came over clutching his injured ribs. He was extremely grateful to Ding Yunyi for saving his life and thanked him repeatedly.

    Even Zou Weilian, the governor of Fujian, did not expect that the naval battle would be won in this way.

    There were two people who performed particularly well in this naval battle. One was the vanguard, General Zheng Zhilong, and the other was the son of Fujian Zanli Military Affairs Ding Yuanzhao: Ding Yunyi!

    Although Ding Yunyi belongs to Zheng Zhilong's fleet, he has a special status. Standing behind him is his father Ding Yuanzhao. Zheng Zhilong deliberately made friends with him. When describing his military exploits, he specially mentioned Ding Yunyi.

    Therefore, as a small sailor, Ding Yunyi was able to be received by Zou Weilian, the governor of Fujian and the admiral of military affairs, together with a group of generals and deputy generals.

    "In this one move, thousands of barbarians were burned and sunk, 118 barbarians were captured alive, five large barbarian ships were burned, and one large barbarian ship was captured. Yi Da Yuan (Taiwan) Governor and Fleet Commander  Mr. Putmans resigned as Commander-in-Chief immediately after the battle"

    After reading the memorial to the imperial court in a melodious tone, Zou Weilian, who was very happy, changed his subject: "This battle can be a great victory, not only because of the great blessing of the Holy Spirit, but also because of the participation of General Zheng Zhilong in taking the lead and fighting bravely, which is a great success. I have confirmed the facts."  Recommended, I think the favor from the imperial court will come soon."

    Zheng Zhilong was overjoyed when he heard that, he hurriedly humbly said, and glanced at Ding Yuanzhao, who was sitting silently under Zou Weilian: "Come back to Commander Fu, in this battle, Ding Yunyi, the sailor of our fleet, bravely took the lead and got close to the two Hongyi ships.  Yun Yi risked his life and took the lead in boarding the ship, killing two of Hongyi's brave and skilled warriors and seriously injuring one, forcing Hongyi to surrender and capturing a huge Hongyi ship. This was indeed his first contribution and had to be commended.  Please give me a promotion."

    Zou Weilian and Ding Yuanzhao had always been on good terms and had originally intended to promote Ding Yunyi. However, considering Ding Yuanzhao's eccentric temper, they held back for the time being. At this time, Zheng Zhilong was the first to say that it was the best thing to do.

    "This, Xiang Wen's bravery is beyond my expectation" Zou Weilian called Ding Yunyi's character "Xiang Wen", and then thought for a moment: "I have decided to use Xiang Wen as the commander-in-chief"  "

    As soon as these words were spoken, Ding Yuanzhao was the first to say: "Ding Yunyi is young. He has not yet turned nineteen this year, and he has no fame. How can he be the general manager with only his bravery and brute force? I thought he was a patrol officer.  The inspection is enough. The Penghu District's "Penghu Biao" sent a letter to Zong Hong Tiaoyuan last time, saying that "Penghu Biao" still lacked an inspection officer, and his subordinates thought that Ding Yunyi could take office there. "

    With just this sentence, Ding Yunyi was downgraded from the seventh-grade general manager who had already obtained it to the ninth-grade inspection.

    Ding Yunyi didn't care how old his official position was. He knew that "Penghu Biao" was an official pure military unit in Penghu. It was formerly called "Penghuyou". This military unit was temporarily disbanded due to the Dutch attack. After that, the Ming Dynasty adopted a policy of non-interference in the Dutch East Indies.  The reestablishment of this unit is conditional on the company's Taiwan affairs.

    During the Qi Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, the original "Penghu Tour" was upgraded to "Penghu Standard", and the highest official was also upgraded from General to Guerrilla. However, because Penghu was desolate and barren, no guerrillas had ever been in charge, and Bao had always been the leader.  General management of Penghu's military affairs and local people's livelihood.

    It doesn¡¯t matter how old you are, but the problem is that the Penghu of today is not the Penghu of Ding Yunyi¡¯s time. It is terribly desolate. Ding Yunyi remembers that only sweet potatoes, groundnuts, and sorghum were edible.  Moreover, the climate in Penghu is very different from that in Taiwan. You can¡¯t even see any plants!

    Throwing yourself into a place like this is really going to kill you!  Am I Ding Yuanzhao's "son"?

    Zou Weilian showed hesitation on his face. He called Ding Yuanzhao to him and whispered: "Brother Duan Ran, how can we station people in Penghu? You only had two daughters before. How can you be willing to give him a son like Xiang Wen?"  Sent to Penghu?¡±

    "Fu Shuai""Ding Yuanzhao said calmly: "Because Yuanzhao had a son in middle age, the so-called deep love means deep responsibility.  Xiang Wen was smart since he was a child, but had a cowardly character, so I sent him to the army to train.  It has only been a few months. Look, Commander Fu, Xiang Wen is like a different person. He is actually able to kill powerful enemies with his own hands. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would hardly have dared to recognize that this was my son.  "

    Ding Yuanzhao was indeed right about this. Ding Yunyi is really a different person now.

    Ding Yuanzhao continued: "What I mean is to put him in Penghu for another year to practice, so that he can become a good person in the future. He is only eighteen and three months old this year. He is very young. What can he do if he has to endure some hardships?  "

    "Brother Duan Ran, Brother Duan Ran." Zou Weilian shook his head repeatedly, saying that he had nothing to do with this good friend: "I will just follow you. If your wife comes to make trouble in the future, you must not blame me."

    As he spoke, his face straightened: "Ding Yunyi."

    "It's a humble job!"

    As soon as the word "humble position" came out, everyone burst into laughter. Ding Yuanzhao was so angry that he stared at his son.

    Even if Ding Yunyi becomes a patrol inspector, he is just a small ninth-grade official. How can he qualify to call himself a "humble position"?  But seeing everyone laughing, Ding Yunyi was confused and didn't know what he said wrong.

    Zou Weilian smiled and passed by. It seems that Ding Yunyi was too nervous in front of all the officials, so he said the wrong thing and didn't care: "Ding Yunyi, you have made great achievements this time and should have been heavily rewarded. However, I think you are young and lack the firepower, so  Are you willing to appoint you as a patrol officer in Penghu?¡±

    At this point, how can Ding Yunyi say he doesn¡¯t want to?  He gritted his teeth: "Thank you Fushuai!"

    In my heart, I scolded myself "I" thousands of times and brought myself to a desolate place like Penghu. What kind of peace of mind did I have?

    I don¡¯t know if the previous ¡°Ding Yunyi¡± offended this stubborn old man, causing him to treat his son like this.
