Chapter 248: The Abominable Xiyi


Zhao Ming got off the boat, and Wang Dana and others greeted him."

Governor!"

Everyone walked forward in unison and saluted, each with a look of joy on their faces.At this time, everyone's concept was actually apprehensive about coming to Taiwan, feeling that they were exiled, marginalized, and far away from the world.When Zhao Ming came to Taiwan, they were naturally happy.In fact, everyone still doesn't understand that Zhao Ming regards Taiwan as a foundation to operate, and he actually attaches great importance to Taiwan.If Taiwan is well managed, he will be able to advance or retreat in the future.The English country is not much bigger than Taiwan, but it can dominate the world and dominate the world for hundreds of years.At this time, Zhao Ming was already preparing to build Taiwan into his rear, he just left the army and some craftsmen in Zhoushan, and almost all of his dependents were transported to Taiwan.At present, the population of Shangdao is about 700,000, organized into seven guards, distributed along the west coast of Taiwan, from north to south, they are Tamsui, Taipei, Nanchi, Taoyuan, Zhuyan, Xingang, and Miaosu.These seven guards, each of which has about 10,000 households, or nearly 100,000 people, is actually equivalent to a county.Zhao Ming came to Taiwan to colonize in the form of a guard, and the people were both farmers and soldiers, so that they could gain a firm foothold on Taiwan Island.From the beginning of 1646 to July 1647, Zhao Ming continued to send people to the island, and had already established a large colonization area in the northwest of Taiwan.The northeast of the colonization area is bounded by Tamsui Creek, the southwest coast is the Zhao Ming colonization area, and the northeast is a Spanish colony.The south is bounded by Dajia Creek, the north is the Han colonization area, and the south is the Da Belly Kingdom established by the indigenous tribes of Taiwan.The colonization area is bordered by the sea to the west and the snow-capped mountains to the east.The area occupied by Zhao Ming now is probably the vast area south of Taipei, north of Taichung, and west of Hualien and Keelung.On the entire island of Taiwan, the four major forces are now divided, the Spaniards occupy the northeast of Taiwan, the Dutch occupy the south, the potbelly kingdom occupies the middle, Zhao Ming occupies the northwest, and there are a large number of tribes that occupy the Central Mountain Range, the Snow Mountain Range, the Ali Mountain Range and other places.The island of Taiwan, as it can now be said, is a Warring States period.Zhao Ming saw the people who came to greet him, smiled and gave Wang Dana a punch, "Colonization is hard, but I haven't seen you thin!"

”Wang Dana followed Zhao Ming for a while, and was the chief flag officer of the Huotou Battalion before, and he was not very good at fighting, so he was not left in Zhoushan to lead the soldiers, but was sent to Wang Taiwan to manage the tunhu.Wang Dana scratched his head and said: "The governor doesn't know, in addition to the hot and humid climate, many mosquitoes, insects, snakes and rats, this island is actually rich in products, there are many wild fruits, birds and animals in the forest, there are several fishing grounds in the offshore, and the land is fertile, as long as you adapt to the climate, life is still very good." ”"It's better than that!"

Zhao Ming smiled and bowed his head, and then said, "However, since life is so good, why did you confiscate how much food?"

”Zhao Ming came here this time mainly to check the situation of Taiwan's colonization, and urged all the guards to open up more wasteland, a variety of food, and solve the problem of lack of materials.Wang Dana and the others listened to Zhao Ming's words, and their faces showed resentment."

Dudu, this has to blame those Xiyi!"

Wang Dana gritted his teeth."

Not bad!"

Yang Wenqi, the Tamsui Wei next to him, was also full of resentment and said: "Governor, we came to the island to tuntian, worked hard to burn the wasteland, reclaimed the land, sowed seeds for irrigation, and took care of them carefully, so that we could get the harvest."

These harvests are all our hard-earned gains, worthy of heaven and earth.And those Xiyi, who do not produce, want to get something for nothing, rob the grain we grow, let us pay taxes for them, and plunder our cantonments and serve them as slaves!

What kind of truth is this, it is simply shameless!

”Zhao Ming looked at him spitting and scolding, and knew that this servant was angry with the Spaniards.Most of the people in the West are like this, they are selfish and arrogant, and they also claim to be righteous.These white feudal lords rely on colonial plunder, do not know how many people they kill and hurt, enjoy the wealth brought by bloody accumulation to act as civilized people, and make rules in their favor, and want to enslave and exploit others forever, in fact, they are some barbaric bandits in their bones.Wang Dana was annoyed and said, "Dudu, those Xiyi are always attacking us.At the end of last year, he gathered 20,000 troops and wanted to drive them away, but he fought around Xiyi's fortress for three months, and as a result, he suffered heavy losses and had to retreat!

”Zhao Ming read the report that the Taiwanese army intended to drive away the Spaniards from the chicken coop and launched a counterattack, but was blocked by the Spaniards' fortress outside the city.Although the number of the tun army was large, they had no way to take the fortress, and finally not only gave up the attack, but also lost 7,000 houses on the east bank of Tamsui and lost a large area of cultivated land.Zhao Ming's face sank after hearing this, the bandits of Xiyi are indeed disgusting, it seems that if you want to develop in Taiwan, you must solve Xiyi.At this time, Zhao Ming comforted everyone a few words, saying that he wanted to clean up the Spaniards, and then asked, "What about Mr.

Xu?"

”Zhao Ming asked Xu Fuyuan, who was sent to Taiwan to manage the affairs of Tuntian."

Xiyi crossed the Tamsui Creek and destroyed several of our tunzhai, Mr.

Xu is handling this matter in the Acropolis!"

Dana Wang said.Zhao Ming had a calm face, and then immediately ordered: "This governor has brought you a batch of ploughing cattle and farm tools from Zhoushan, and you can arrange for someone to unload them and take care of them." ”"Humble command!"

Wang Dana hurriedly bowed down and clenched his fists.Immediately, he arranged for two people to be responsible for unloading, and Zhao Ming said: "Let's go, take this governor to the Acropolis to have a look." ”Zhao Ming ordered Ding Weiyue to arrange for the guards to disembark, and he rode a horse to the Acropolis surrounded by Wang Dana and others.Tamsui Wei is a David, with more than 13,000 households and a population of more than 110,000 people, which is barely a first-class county.In areas that have not been war-torn, a family may have dozens of people without a family, and hundreds of people are a family, but Zhao Ming was asked to divide the family here, and the war caused the family to be separated, so there are only about ten people in a family at most.Tamsui Wei has jurisdiction over more than 100,000 people, but the population is in Tuntian, scattered in the four fields, so the Tamsui Acropolis is not large, not even a brick and stone building, just an area surrounded by earthen walls and wooden fences.Because Taiwan has just been developed, lacks materials, and has a single economy, there is no commercial population in the Acropolis, only health officials, various warehouses, and a small number of dependents.When Zhao Ming came to the Acropolis, the officials and residents in the Acropolis had already received the news, and the officials, soldiers, and dependents flocked to the city gate, standing on both sides of the aisle to welcome Zhao Ming's arrival, and the atmosphere was extremely warm.Zhao Ming was surrounded by the stars in front of the Acropolis official hall, he turned around, looked at the faces full of respect and support for him, waved his hand, and the crowd immediately quieted down."

Everyone came to Taiwan Island to colonize and provide military rations for the front line, it's hard work!"

Zhao Ming said loudly, glanced at everyone, and then said in a solemn voice: "This governor heard that Xiyi often attacks you, this time this time the governor came over, and he will take you to throw all Xiyi into the sea!"

”The generals cheered together, "The governor is mighty, throw Xiyi into the sea!"
