Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The people sent by Chongzhen became Ding Yunyi's people, and the initial threat to Taiwan has been lifted.

    What¡¯s even more gratifying is that Ding Yunyi has another person in Taiwan to help him look after his home and care for his home:

    Lu Qicheng.

    Ding Yunyi can leave Taiwan with peace of mind.  The only one who is dissatisfied is probably his wives and concubines.  My husband is always like this, running around here and there.

    But who made him a great hero?

    Ah Xi¡¯s belly is also getting bigger. I¡¯m afraid that when Ding Yunyi returns to Taiwan this time, he will be able to have more children.

    After teasing his son Xingsi for a while, Ding Yunyi handed him back to Han Xiaoxiao: "I'm going to be afraid for a while. You women stay at home and don't just play mahjong all day long. Lianyu  Please help take care of the disciples we have recruited."

    All the concubines were in attendance. Xiaotu was making noises on the side and wanted to go to the front line with his brother. Ding Yunyi said with a smile: "It is so dangerous to fight with the bandits. It is not the place for a girl like you to go. You should stay at home with your sister-in-law. Yes."  Now, didn¡¯t I allow you to form the Tiger Guard Female Army? Work hard and it will come in handy in the future.¡±

    Several women were reluctant to leave. After talking about it, they almost shed tears.

    Ding Yunyi stood up with a smile: "The love between children is not something a man would do. I will go on an expedition tomorrow, and tonight I will live with the soldiers who will go out with me. Don't worry about me. It's your honor for me to build achievements on the battlefield.  That¡¯s it!¡±

    "What your husband said is true." Han Xiaoxiao showed her strength as always: "My husband is only twenty-two this year. He has already been knighted. Becoming a prince or a prince is just a blink of an eye. This is my Ding family.  Glory, as wives and concubines, why do we cry so much that we disturb your husband¡¯s heart?¡±

    "Good!" Ding Yunyi praised: "There is a man named Duduo from Jinlu, who fought with me at the border. He is only twenty-four this year and has already been crowned king. Could it be that I, a great man from the Central Plains, am not as good as a barbarian commoner?"  If I don¡¯t kill him on the battlefield today and make great contributions, I won¡¯t be able to return to Taiwan again, so I¡¯ll go!¡±

    Picking up Qian Junyan, he glanced at his wife, concubines, children, and maids, and strode out

    ?¡­

    Ding Yunyi went to war again.  For his men, it has become a habit.  Everything seemed so orderly, and there was no confusion due to Ding Yunyi's imminent departure.

    This time, Ding Yunyi chose Huangfu Yunjie, Deng Changgui, and Hou Lu to go out with the cavalry. There were thirty-six cavalry in total. The generals were worried that there were too few people. What if the mistakes of Yingzhou were repeated?  Ding Yunyi smiled and said:

    "This expedition is very different from the previous one. That time it was Hong Chengchou, and this time it was Yang Sichang. When he takes office as a new official, he will inevitably supervise all the troops to fight. I talked with him carefully in the capital, and I expected thirty-six  You will definitely succeed if you ride it.¡±

    Seeing that the deputy town's determination was made, the generals said no more.

    Everything in Taiwan is on track, and Ding Yunyi is not worried. He just carefully explained to Qin Yun and Xie Tian that they need to pay close attention to the trends in Fujian and Lu Qicheng.  Whatever Lu Qicheng needs in Taiwan, he will send it to him.  Don't be afraid of spending money.

    Qin Yun also knows the importance of Lu Qicheng to Taiwan, and winning him over will not only make Chongzhen feel at ease.  And it can also become the most powerful amulet in Taiwan.

    "Third brother, this time is very different from before. Just go with peace of mind." Qin Yun said on behalf of the brothers: "Third brother, what will happen when you leave Taiwan this time? It will be better when you come back. However, I am worried about the imperial court.  Li refuses to let Third Brother go"

    Ding Yunyi nodded.  This was exactly what he was worried about.  Although Lu Qicheng, sent by Chongzhen this time, has been won over by himself, what if Chongzhen suddenly refuses to let him return to Taiwan?

    He thought there for a long time.  Let the generals go out first, leaving Qin Yun and Xie Tian alone, and discussed with them carefully.

    Qin Yun nodded frequently after hearing this: "Third brother, just go with peace of mind. When the appointed time comes, the two of us will always know what to do."

    "Then I'll leave Taiwan to you." Ding Yunyi breathed a sigh of relief: "On the military side, we have those brothers in charge, on the trade side, we have Xie Xuan and you, on the intelligence side, we have Xie Tian, ??on the local governance side, we have people like Su Yang Qiuyuan and Qi Yumu.  I¡¯m not worried. What I¡¯m worried about now is the voyage fleet.¡±

    The voyage fleet has been away for so long?  Where are they now?  Has it reached Mexico, or has the entire army been wiped out?

    Ding Yunyi doesn¡¯t know that the voyage fleet seems to have disappeared

    ?¡­

    The sound of drums sounded on the island.

    Those shirtless men and women wearing very little, accompanied by the sound of drums,Performing a cheerful dance.

    These brown-skinned women only use the simplest cloth to cover important parts of their bodies. If they were in the Ming Dynasty, they would have been imprisoned in the pig cage for immorality.

    But for the sailors of Taiwan¡¯s voyage fleet, they have long been accustomed to it.  Along the way, I can see women like this everywhere.

    "Where are we?" Chen Dong asked while drinking the unknown sweet water on the island.

    Poleman looked at the nautical chart for a while: "If the nautical chart is correct, we have already arrived at Cholco Island. If we follow this route, we will be able to reach Mexico."

    It¡¯s too long, this journey is too long.

    Along the way, you have to fight against the unpredictable sea and deal with pirates who appear and disappear.  Those small groups of pirates, in front of the powerful escort fleet, could only follow them for a while, but when they saw that they were not strong enough, they could only leave in anger.  Some large pirates did not dare to confront the voyage fleet head-on. After several negotiations, Poleman came forward to give them some gifts and then sent these people away.

    Only once did I encounter a group of desperate pirates and fought a battle with the Voyage Fleet. As a result, the Voyage Fleet sank a ship, so I fled in a hurry.

    Starting from Taiwan to here, the losses of the voyage fleet were not serious, only one escort ship sank.  A medium-sized merchant ship laden with cargo disappeared when heavy waves arose at night.  The only pity is.  There was a smart young man named Kong Hua. He was smart and hard-working, and was deeply loved by Chen Dong. He happened to be sent by Chen Dong to inspect the goods on that ship that day, so he stayed on the ship that night. Unexpectedly, he went with the ship.  disappeared.

    ¡°It¡¯s a pity, it¡¯s a pity that the possibility of surviving being lost at sea is too small.

    Arrive at Cholco Island.  I originally thought that the residents of the island would be as hostile as some of the islands I had passed before, but who would have thought that this did not happen.  On the contrary, after the doctors on board the expedition fleet cured some patients for them, the islanders expressed their gratitude in the form of strange songs and dances.

    "Mr. Sun, Father Marco. Have a drink of water." Seeing Sun Xiyu and Marco coming over, Chen Dong handed the water over to him, and then said curiously: "Father Marco, this island is Cholco Island, the same island as you."  what relationship?"

    "No, no." Father Marco said solemnly: "Marco is Marco, and Gyorco is Gyorco. They are completely different."

    Several people laughed "haha", and Sun Xiyu took a sip of water: "Captain Poleman, how long is the flight from here to Mexico?"

    "Mexico is very close to us. If everything goes well, I think we will be in Mexico by now next month." Poleman said, carefully observing the navigation chart.

    ¡°It¡¯s been too long since I came out, and I don¡¯t know how Taiwan is doing. I really miss Taiwan.¡± Sun Xiyu sighed.

    The longer you stay away from home, the more you miss your hometown.

    One sentence evoked everyone¡¯s homesickness.

    One of Poleman¡¯s men came over and muttered to Poleman. There was a complicated expression on Poleman¡¯s face, and after a while he shrugged:

    "Gentlemen, there is belated news, which is good news for you. But for me, a Dutchman, it is a tragedy."

    Everyone¡¯s curiosity was immediately attracted. Captain Poleman sighed helplessly and said:

    "After we left Taiwan, the Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, and the United Kingdom formed a combined fleet. They conducted a military operation against Taiwan, but unfortunately. This joint military operation was defeated by Ding, and the combined fleet suffered heavy losses.  "

    The sailors of the Ming Dynasty were startled at first, and then burst into earth-shaking cheers.

    Victory, the Tiger Guards have won again, the Tiger Guards are victorious in every battle!

    Sun Xiyu was a little uneasy: "Captain, is the news reliable?"

    "Of course it's reliable." Poleman pointed towards the dock: "A Spanish merchant ship returning from Luzon also arrived at Cholco Island. This is the news they brought. Oh, damn Spaniards, it is said that they  Nothing was lost this time.¡±

    This time it was Marco¡¯s turn to cheer.

    "Okay, okay." Chen Dong said with a smile: "They beat them, but we are still friends. I will ask someone to bring a barrel of wine down later, and we can have a good drink."

    Poleman suddenly made a serious face: "I want the bottle of wine you hid."

    "Shit." Chen Dong laughed and scolded: "That's my personal collection. Don't even think about trying to get rid of that bottle of wine."

    It caused laughter again.Several young girls from Cholco Island came over, pulling Chen Dong, Sun Xiyu, and Bolaiman with them while gesturing there.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT out of hand, Chen Dong also knew that this was asking them to dance together. At this time, when they heard the victory in Taiwan, everyone was in a good mood. Chen Dong waved his hand: "Let's go dance!"

    That lame dance posture constantly aroused bursts of laughter from the people on the island.

    Chen Dong and Sun Xiyu felt deeply in their hearts. No matter what the outcome of this voyage was, it was enough for them to have no regrets.  They saw territories outside the Ming Dynasty and saw all kinds of customs and customs that were completely different from the Ming Dynasty.

    When I was in Taiwan, adults always said that although the Ming Dynasty was very big, it was actually very small compared to the world. They didn¡¯t believe it at first, but when they saw it with their own eyes, they completely believed it was true.

    At night, the bonfires were lit, the singing and dancing continued, and the men and women on the island became more and more enthusiastic.

    Chen Dong asked people to carry barrels of wine from the boat and distributed them to everyone, which also caused even greater cheers.

    Almost everyone drank too much, and the openness and enthusiasm of the girls on the island also made the Ming sailors on the ship feel a different style.

    Three or three pairs of sailors from the Ming Dynasty, each with their arms around the girl they liked, or the girl they liked, went deep into the dense forest

    It is said that after the departure of the Taiwan expedition fleet, the number of pregnant women on Cholco Island increased significantly. Ten months later, there were many more mixed-race children on the island

    ¡°When these children grew up, they learned about their own life experiences through their mothers, and thus began a journey back to China to find their relatives.

    The sun was shining on Cholco Island, and after a night of fun, the time to say goodbye finally came.  Although the women on those islands are reluctant to leave, what can they do?

    "My lord, look, there is a boat!"

    Looking in the direction of the water's finger, Chen Dong saw a ship heading here through the telescope.  Gradually getting closer, Chen Dong looked very carefully. Suddenly his hands froze and he couldn't believe what he saw.

    What¡¯s flying on the boat is the flag of the Ming Dynasty!

    "Kong Hua! Kong Hua! Sir, it is Kong Hua who has brought the brothers back!"

    The wave of joy quickly swept across the voyage fleet. It was really incredible. Kong Hua, who originally thought he was going to die, actually came back with the missing cargo ship!

    "My lord! My lord!"

    As soon as he approached Cholco Island, Kong Hua jumped into the sea and rushed towards the island desperately.

    After rushing to the front, Chen Dong hugged Kong Hua: "Oh my god, we all thought you were dead. Come on, where did you come from?"

    Kong Hua laughed and teased, and it took him a long time to explain clearly what happened.

    It turns out that the big waves that night washed away Kong Hua's boat and fleet. The brothers on the boat were very panicked at first, but Kong Hua tried his best to calm them down.

    When the waves stopped after daybreak, Kong Hua took this lonely boat and searched all the way to here. It was also their good fortune. Not only did they not encounter any big waves on the way, they didn't even encounter pirates.

    Chen Dong suddenly felt a little strange: "How do you know we are here? How do you know the route?"

    Kong Hua touched his head and said with a smile: "While you were studying the navigation chart, I was listening and watching. I have remembered this route very clearly. I calculated the time and you should be here.  "

    "Genius! Genius!" Chen Dong was greatly surprised and said several times: "You have never had sailing experience before, and you can remember it just by listening and watching? It's amazing, it's amazing!"

    Sun Xiyu smiled on the side and said: "Since Kong Hua is back, Chen Dong, let's get ready to go!"

    "Yes, let's go, let's go!" Chen Dong nodded and waved his hand: "Brothers, let's go, don't lie in a woman's arms anymore!"
