Part One: Penghu Storm Chapter 199 The Growth of the Pirate Alliance (Eighth Update)

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The situation among the senior officials was temporarily stabilized with the death of the Guo brothers.

    But things are still a mess.

    Although the privateering fleet has been dispatched, there is no money coming in yet.  Tax cuts, pensions, relocation, and the natural disasters that are about to come, this money can only go out, but God knows how long it can last for that little savings.

    We can only hope that the merchant fleet sent out for a trial voyage will be guaranteed by God to come back smoothly.

    Thinking about it carefully, being a Five Tigers guerrilla general is really not as carefree as being a pirate leader.

    Hongyi¡¯s military compensation has been paid in full, and the ship for their departure has been prepared.  Putmans and those Hongyi who no longer wanted to stay in Taiwan were ready to leave the senior officials.

    On the day he left, Putmans felt desolate in his heart.  Assigned by the East India Company, he came all the way to Da Yuan, but first he was defeated miserably in Liaoluowan, and then he lost Da Yuan directly, and his future was completely over.

    "Farewell, Relanje City." Putmans murmured. Although he knew that this place had been renamed "Golden Eagle City", he still preferred to call it Relanje City.

    "Farewell, City of Relancia." Someone next to him said exactly the same thing as him, it was Father Candice who had been expelled from the ministry.

    Putmans and Candice looked at each other and smiled bitterly, what can be done?  Luck is no longer your own world.

    "Governor, I have put your luggage away." His assistant Miles came out and said.

    Putmans nodded and asked casually: "Where is your luggage, have you packed it?" Miles hesitated: "Mr. Governor, I decided to stay here."

    Putmans was a little surprised. Stay here?  He couldn't believe that his assistant would actually say something like this: "Miles, do you think those people from the Ming Dynasty will treat you well if you stay here? No, come back with me. In the future, we will definitely have  The opportunity will come back again." "Mr. Governor, my grandfather was an excellent winemaker." Miles did not answer directly immediately, but suddenly said something incomprehensible: "I have learned winemaking techniques from my grandfather since I was a child.  I dreamed of becoming an excellent winemaker in the future. If I had not come here, maybe my wish would have been fulfilled. Now that we have failed, the Five Tigers guerrilla general is looking for useful talents everywhere. I told him this skill of mine uneasily.  As a result, he kept me without hesitation." Putmans couldn't believe it: "He kept you just because you can make wine?" "Yes, sir," Miles said seriously.  "It's very gratifying that he respects my skills," Putman said. "And you know what, being a winemaker here, he pays me a lot more than I did at my previous job."  Si smiled bitterly.

    What kind of world is this?  The salary of a winemaker is actually more than that of a scribe.

    "Okay, Miles, if you are still willing to continue your adventure in the East, then I respect your choice and hope that we can meet again one day in the future." Putmans said helplessly, and then looked around: "Rachel  Where is Lisa? Why hasn't my Rachel come yet?" Miles looked a little sad. He took out a letter and handed it to Putmans: "This is what Rachel asked me to bring to you?"

    An ominous premonition arose in Putmans's heart. He took the letter and looked at it for a few times before his hands began to tremble.

    Rachelsha didn¡¯t leave either, Rachelsha also chose to stay here.

    Major Swede, Second Lieutenant Mansoura, Miles, and now it is the turn of his beloved Rachelsha. So many people stayed here, so many people betrayed themselves.

    "The ship is sailing, the ship is sailing!"

    There were sounds of urging, and Candice said with a gloomy expression: "Let's go, Mr. Governor, this place no longer belongs to us." Yes, this place no longer belongs to us?  Putmans Gray Nose looked at the captain one last time, and then boarded the ship with heavy steps.

    Farewell, Putmans: Farewell, Hongyi!

    This place will truly become the land of Ming Dynasty!

    Standing high up, Ding Yunyi watched the two large ships leave with his own eyes.  Large ships would take them to Luzon and Java, and then they would return home with Dutch or dried wax merchant ships.

    Never come back again, because there is no place for you here.

    The flag of Ming Dynasty will fly here forever.

    "My lord, Xie Xuan and Sun Xiyu have accepted the invitation and will arrive at Golden Eagle City in the near future. My father will also come with them to see with my own eyes your immortal achievements in regaining Taiwan!" Cai Jiuzhou said from the side.

    "Oh, your father is coming too?"??Ding Yunyi was a little surprised.

    On that day, Oniohmaru invaded Penghu in a large scale. He had no choice but to go to the Cai family for help. He even made rude remarks that time, but Cai Qizhen didn't care. Instead of arguing with him, he even sent his son Cai Jiuzhou to help.  Own.

    ¡°If it weren¡¯t for the Cai family¡¯s boat, I wouldn¡¯t be able to achieve the feat that I do today.  In this sense, the Cai family is kind to themselves.

    This time I¡¯m here, I must give you a good reception.

    "It's just that Cai Qizhen suddenly came to Taiwan. I'm afraid the purpose is not as simple as just taking a look.

    "Sir, the pirates in Guangdong are like a tree, and the pirates in the southeast are like smoke. Please see me!"

    Duan Saner¡¯s words interrupted Ding Yunyi¡¯s train of thought: ¡°What are the origins of these two people?¡±

    Duan San'er had followed Oni Omaru earlier and specialized in spying on these pirates. He knew these pirates very well: "Sir, Yishu followed Liu Xiang back then. Later, he established his own business and owned eleven ships across the coast of Guangdong.  There is a person nicknamed "Xiao Liuxiang" who appears in Luzon and Java. His ships often have a word for "quick", and they come and go like the wind, so he got the nickname "Yuyan".  . I heard that the Ganrasi people organized several campaigns against him, but all failed, and a reward was offered specifically to capture this person. "

    Ding Yunyi became interested: "Bring them here to see me."

    Duan Saner hurriedly went to make arrangements. Cai Jiuzhou smiled and said: "I used to be a maritime merchant and heard the names of these two people. It seems that your majesty has been established. These two people came here because of their reputation."

    Ding Yunyi smiled lightly, fame plays a huge role in this era.  This is true in official circles, and it is also true among pirates.

    After waiting there for a while, I saw Duan San'er waiting for two people to come in a hurry. When the two people saw Ding Yunyi, they immediately knelt on the ground: "One tree for pirates, one smoke for pirates, meet the leader!  "Ding Yunyi suddenly became worried.

    Although the name of the leader of the Pirate Alliance sounds loud and majestic, as more and more people know about it in the future, sooner or later it will be spread to the court. What will happen at that time?

    Will anyone accuse him of being acquainted with gangsters?  What would Chongzhen think of himself?

    This may be a troublesome thing in the future.

    Putting these thoughts aside for the time being, his face sank: "That day I summoned you to a meeting in Penghu, why didn't you come? Do you have to wait until I fall out?" "Excuse me, leader!" Yizhishu boldly said: "That day we did follow  Brother Li Guo learned about the news of coming to Penghu, but I have been fighting against the government for a long time, and it¡¯s time to behead me a few times. I don¡¯t know the depth of the alliance leader, so I didn¡¯t dare to come.¡± ¡°I¡¯m afraid I thought at that time, this Ding Yunyi was the one.  What kind of Dongbi has the guts to summon you?" Ding Yunyi said with a straight face.

    "Don't dare, don't dare." The two pirates said hurriedly.

    "Stand up." Ding Yunyi said calmly: "It's better to come late than never. Are you willing to listen to my orders from now on?" Yi Yiyan took a step forward: "The leader first killed Liu Xiang, and he has become famous all over the world. Later.  When we heard that Penghu's navy was rising with great force, we were horrified to imagine how sharp the Hongyi artillery was, but they were wiped out by the alliance leader with the force of the autumn wind. I felt very depressed at that time."

    Zhishuo was also regretful at the side: "We also heard that the six people from Hainixiong followed the leader and actually made great contributions. What do people like Hainixiong and Fang Fenghuang mean? But just because they compare with each other.  We took refuge with the Alliance Leader earlier, and thus took away the credit that should have been given to us. If we arrived later, where would there be any place for us to stand on this sea? Therefore, we shamelessly came to join the Alliance Leader, and begged the Alliance Leader to take us in regardless of our past grudges.  !¡±

    "Yes, we will definitely follow the alliance leader from now on and be loyal!" A puff of smoke also quickly expressed our loyalty.

    Ding Yunyi's face was expressionless: "Now that you are here, from now on you are also considered my subordinates. Wherever my leader's flag goes, you will live and die without any complaints."

    "I am willing to go through fire and water for the alliance leader, and die without regrets!"

    Ding Yunyi immediately asked Duan Saner to take the two pirates to Qin Yun and take their ships,

    The crew members are registered and the rules of the pirate alliance are told to them one by one. The most important thing is the "Ten Iron Rules of Pirates" formulated by Ding Yunyi himself.

    Cai Jiuzhou cupped his hands and said: "Congratulations, sir! Taiwan has been recovered, and our banner has been fully displayed. I thought it was just the beginning for a number of trees and a puff of smoke to come to seek refuge with me. Once that Doshima Saburo was annihilated by Li Guo, I  It is expected that large numbers of pirates will continue to come to Taiwan. Your position as leader of the pirate alliance is now secure. "I'm afraid that the imperial court will find out. It will be very difficult in the future," Ding Yunyi said.  There was a hint of worry on his face.

    Cai Jiuzhou smiled and said: "When the time comes, you can become a real pirate.

      We brothers are willing to follow the leader.  "Ding Yunyi also laughed. Yes, when the time comes, you can become a real pirate. What's the big deal? If you can't be a guerrilla general of the Five Tigers, you can be a real pirate king.

    With the addition of Zhushu and Yiyiyan, the pirate alliance has been further strengthened, and this will definitely become a huge capital for Ding Yunyi in the future.

    Especially, it will play an extremely important role in the current confrontation with Zheng Zhilong!  !  ~!
