Part One: Penghu Chapter 148 The Conflict between Missionaries and Missionaries

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After the Dutch occupied Taiwan, the earliest enslavement education was the spread of religious ideas.

    This started from the early days when they landed in Taiwan.  As early as the third year of Chongzhen's reign, Dutch missionary Candinius wrote to the headquarters of the East India Company, requesting the East India Company to legislate that the local mountain tribes in Taiwan must embrace Christianity.  However, the Dutch were worried that this move would arouse resistance from all ethnic groups, so they did not take action yet.

    In the years that followed, when the Dutch conquered the Alpine tribes, missionaries accompanying the army participated in each battle. These missionaries were usually "multi-purpose". Before the war, they mainly worked as spies and infiltrated into various tribes.  During the war, he mainly worked as a doctor, treating injured Dutch soldiers. After the war, he became a missionary and a part-time teacher. His main job was to induce the high mountain tribes to believe in religion and give lectures in the local area.

    However, although the Spanish influence in Taiwan was eliminated one by one by the Dutch, Spanish missionaries were still very active in Taiwan.

    The Dutch could drive away the Spanish, but they did not dare to drive out the missionaries for fear of being punished by God.  Because of this, there was a situation in Taiwan where Dutch missionaries and Spanish missionaries competed for each other's believers.

    Although they both believe in God, these missionaries also have ulterior motives for each other.

    The Dutch want to use missionaries to further expand their power throughout Taiwan and ultimately stabilize their rule in Taiwan.  Spain, which was unwilling to fail, had to use missionaries to accumulate strength and prepare for a comeback in the future.

    Although the Netherlands did not dare to openly expel Spanish missionaries, the fight between missionaries was the struggle between servants of God, and it had nothing to do with them.

    The Condinius Wu Hualong was talking about was the missionary who asked the East India Company to legislate that the local Gaoshan tribes in Taiwan must embrace Christianity.

    As for Marco, he represents the interests of Spanish missionaries.

    A loud quarrel was heard in the distance. Two men dressed as missionaries were arguing over something. They must have been Candinius and Marco.

    Ding Yunyi only took one look at another Chinese person who kept persuading him and recognized who he was:

    Thank God!

    That Xie Tian who came to Taiwan to spy on intelligence with three thousand taels of silver, but there has been no news since then!

    "Don't argue, don't argue, Mr. Guo is here."

    With this voice, the argument suddenly stopped.

    When he saw Ding Yunyi, Xie Tian's expression changed, and then he said calmly to Guo Huai: "Master Guo, you are here. If you don't come, I can't control it."

    "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Thank you for your hard work, Mr." Guo Huai walked over with a slight smile: "Candinius, Marco, what are you arguing about here?"

    The two missionaries immediately surrounded Guo Huaiyi, chattering there in fluent Chinese.

    The general meaning is that Continius robbed one of Marco's followers, which aroused Marco's dissatisfaction. He came here early in the morning to persuade the believer to join his church. As a result, Continius found out and rushed there.  came over, and a quarrel broke out.

    What surprised Ding Yunyi was that Xie Tian seemed to have a lot of weight among the Dutch and Spanish. Both missionaries rushed to ask Xie Tian to prove that the other one was wrong first.

    Xie Tian didn¡¯t say who was right or wrong, he just kept trying to mix things up with a vague tone.

    "Father Continius, Father Marco, I think you don't need to argue." Guo Huai smiled and said: "Continius, after all, that believer belongs to Marco first. Is it wrong for you to rob someone else? I  It¡¯s up to Marco.¡±

    As soon as Ding Yunyi heard this, he knew that Guo Huaiyi was biased towards Marco.

    Although Guo Huaiyi has local prestige, he does not know how to assess the situation.  At the moment, the Dutch in Taiwan have the upper hand, but he is helping the Spanish. It doesn't matter now, but in the long run, will it not make the Dutch jealous?

    Although Candinius was angry, Guo Huaiyi had already said this, and he was indeed wrong when he said it, so he could only suppress his displeasure in his heart for the time being.

    Seeing that this matter was over, I suddenly heard someone shouting: "Oh, isn't this Mr. Xie? What a coincidence, I met you here."

    Everyone looked towards the place where the voice came from, and it was Ding Yunyi who spoke.

    Without waiting for others to react, Ding Yunyi stepped forward quickly and took Xie Tian's hand: "Mr. Xie, I am Ding Shanna. We met in Quanzhou and had a very good conversation. Have you forgotten?  ?¡±

    At this time, Ding Yunyi did his best??Be prepared with both hands.  Once Xie Tian betrayed him, he took Xie Tian's life on the spot and then found a way to escape from Taiwan.

    ??

    "I'm sending a shipment of goods to Taiwan." Ding Yunyi said with a smile, and then he let go of Xie Tian's hand, but stood beside Xie Tian, ??so that if something happened, he could take the lead in attacking.

    "It turns out that Brother Ding and Mr. Xie know each other, and we are all on the same side." Guo Huaiyi seemed to respect Xie Tian in his tone.

    Xie Tian smiled and said: "Master Guo, Father Candinius, Father Marco, now that the matter is over, brothers don't stay here anymore. I met an old friend today, and I feel happy. Brother Ding, please stay at my place today."  ¡±

    Ding Yunyi couldn't get what he asked for: "Then I won't bother Mr. Xie."

    Guo Huaiyi originally wanted to invite Ding Yunyi to spend the night at his place, but seeing that Ding Yunyi and Mr. Xie "reunite as old friends," he couldn't say much.

    Candinius rolled his eyes and said enthusiastically: "Mr. Xie, congratulations on meeting you old friends. Tonight, I will treat you to dinner. Please thank me for your kindness."

    Before Xie Tian had time to answer, Ding Yunyi had already smiled and said: "Since it is the priest who invites you, I will not be polite."

    On the way back, Ding Yunyi said nothing. When he arrived at Xie Tian's residence, he first settled Duan Saner and A Hu, and then Xie Tian invited Ding Yunyi to his residence.

    Seeing Xie Tian close the door, Ding Yunyi's face suddenly darkened: "Xie Tian, ??you are so bold, you dare to take the money and run away. Do you really think that I don't dare to kill you?"

    Xie Tian did not have any panic: "Congratulations, sir, on your promotion to the garrison. I don't know what Xie Tian has done to be hunted down by you?"

    Seeing that the other party was still so stubborn at this time, Ding Yunyi sneered: "I gave you three thousand taels of silver, but you still don't contact me. Isn't this just running away with the money? Are you still working for me?"

    Xie Tian remained unhurried: "Xie Tian is doing something loyal to the defense."
