    "That's not enough." Hong Tiaoyuan shook his head and said, "Whether they are pirates or Ganrasi people, they all know that Penghu is the only place where they can get supplies nearby. Destroying this place is equivalent to destroying themselves.  There is no way to survive, so things like burning, killing and looting have never happened. However, sometimes it is inevitable to go crazy after drinking too much without paying for things. Sometimes we also do this.  Just bear with it.¡±

    ????????? In fact, there is another layer of meaning in his words that he has not said out loud, and they have to endure it even if they can¡¯t bear it.

    Before Ding Yunyi and the others arrived, there were only twelve soldiers in Penghu, including the old man and Lao Ji. How could they compete with pirates and foreigners?

    Ding Yunyi suddenly said: "Take advantage of them!"

    With one word, everyone stopped their movements and turned their attention to Ding Yunyi.

    "Rob? Rob what?" Hong Tiaoyuan asked as if he hadn't heard clearly.

    "Rob the pirates and the Westerners!" Ding Yunyi said viciously.

    "You're crazy, we are officers and soldiers!" Hong Tiaoyuan was stunned when he heard this.

    Ding Yunyi followed his third brother in society in another era. These things are commonplace to him, and he doesn't care about his current status: "Boss, brothers, why are pirates and foreigners so popular?  Do we have to live a hard life as fishermen on this island? Pirates and foreigners can rob, so can we! "

    "Brother, brother." Hong Tiaoyuan was frightened and interrupted him hastily: "Pirates are pirates, and officers and soldiers are officers and soldiers. If this matter is exposed, it will be a crime of losing one's head!"

    "Losing their heads?" Ding Yunyi didn't care at all: "If we rob them, who will report them? You? You? Or will the pirates report it to the officials themselves? It will be in vain if we rob them! Boss, you listen to me this time, otherwise this will happen  Sooner or later, there will be no one on the island. We only rob pirates and foreigners, and they don¡¯t come here clean anyway!¡±

    Hong Tiaoyuan's head was in chaos. Why did the superiors send him such an inspection?  My mentor, Ding Yuanzhao, had been honest and upright for most of his life, so why did he give birth to such a robber son?

    Although Hong Tiaoyuan is not very capable, he is cautious and cautious in doing things. He is not willing to do anything beyond the realm of thunder.  It is precisely because of this that after so many years in the army, he is still a small general.

    At the moment, Ding Yunyi actually proposed such a "method", which is nothing short of the most incredible thing in the world to Hong Tiaoyuan.

    Hong Tiaoyuan was determined not to agree, but the eyes of the brothers were all burning.

    The poverty on this island has fallen to the present, so it is easy to send such a "reasonable affection" and bold inspection, how can there be unhappy truths?

    When the brothers thought about it, Hong Tiaoyuan, the highest official, was left in the cold.

    Those soldiers were all very interested and asked what to do. Ding Yunyi answered every question, including how to select a target, how to carry out the robbery, and how to cover up the incident afterwards.

    The brothers¡¯ blood was boiling after hearing this, and everyone was eager to take action now.  Hong Tiaoyuan tried to speak several times, but was impatiently interrupted by his brothers.

    "That's enough, you bunch of bastards!"

    Hong Tiaoyuan finally couldn't bear it any longer and stopped the lively discussion with a loud shout.  Hong Tiaoyuan was so angry that the flesh on his face trembled. He pointed first at his subordinates and then at Ding Yunyi: "Ding Yunyi, Ding Xiangwen, after all you are from a scholarly family, how can you say such words? How incorruptible is my mentor?  Gangzheng, but gave birth to you, this"

    After all, he couldn¡¯t say the next words, but it was Ding Yunyi who helped him say it: ¡°The son of disdain, right?¡±

    "Yes, the son of disdain!" Hong Tiaoyuan sighed, and his tone was somewhat calmer: "Brother Ding, we are receiving salary from the imperial court and serving as officials of the Ming Dynasty. How can we do things that only pirates can do?  If this gets out, the officials of Ming Dynasty will be completely disgraced."

    "Boss Hong!" Ding Yunyi stood up, not afraid at all: "I only know one thing. The brothers are not clothed and have no food to eat. They are all living like beggars. How can we talk about it?  Defend Penghu? We haven¡¯t seen any of the money and supplies promised by the imperial court. If the Hongyi attack, what can we do with just fifteen people and fifteen swords?¡±

    Hong Tiaoyuan was stunned for a while, and then he said: "But we can't do this, we would rather starve to death"

    "Boss Hong!" Ding Yunyi smiled bitterly and shook his head: "What we robbed are pirates, silk dryers, and foreigners, not innocent people. Why can the Hongyi occupy Taiwan? Robbery of passing ships? Damn it.  It's the help of big pirates like Liu Xiang  Hongyi can assess the situation and use his strength, why can't we?  I don¡¯t know how to talk about big things. I only know two things. The first is to find ways to fill the stomachs of our brothers. The second is that we have to arm ourselves. The red barbarian sword is going to hit us on the head. We are hungry.  I can't even swing the knife anymore!  "

    Seeing all the brothers nodding frequently, Hong Tiaoyuan was so anxious that he didn¡¯t know what to say.  Although he felt that what Ding Yunyi said was reasonable, it was absolutely impossible for him to do this kind of business.

    Ding Yunyi sighed: "Boss Hong, brothers, the Hongyi ships are now equipped with cannons. One blast is very powerful. There are also Folan cannons, which are even more amazing. There is a method where each mother cannon is equipped with nine sub-cannons.  , fired in turns, known as "Zi Mu Gun", and some are even equipped with sights. These Europeansah, no, the Thais have them. They are coming with these things, so what can we do to resist them?  ? Knife, or stone?

    Speaking of these, Ding Yunyi really has to thank his father in another era. If he hadn't let him learn these things since he was a child, he really can't say it now.

    Hong Tiaoyuan and the brothers were dumbfounded.

    The firearm technology of the Ming Dynasty has been quite powerful and mature. The earliest Fo Lang machine cannon had been successfully imitated as early as the third year of Jiajing, and was even more powerful than European artillery.

    During the Jiajing period alone, the War Bureau, the Ordnance Bureau and the border garrison produced large-scale Folang machines, medium-type Folang machines, small-type Folang machines, cavalry Folang machines, Folang-type meteor cannons, and hundreds of Folang machines.  There are more than ten kinds of machine guns, Wansheng Folang machine, Renzhu Folang machine, Invincible general cannon, steel hair gun, etc. The total number reaches 30,000 to 40,000, which are used as naval guns, city defense guns, tank guns, field guns, etc.  Cannons, infantry guns, and cavalry guns became one of the main equipment of the Ming army.

    But the soldiers like Hong Tiaoyuan and Penghu had never seen such weapons.  When Ding Yunyi said it, everyone was surprised.

    At this moment, an angry voice suddenly came from outside:

    "Okay, you soldiers don't want to serve the court and protect the people, but you are here secretly discussing to become pirates. Let's go, let's go, I will go with you to Zou Weilian to fight this lawsuit!"
