201 Eye-catching
In any case, this conversation can be regarded as completely restoring the relationship between Li Tianyang and Li De. Although there are many complaints, as elders, after Li Tianyang said this, they are not unable to accept the consequences of Li Tianyang's actions.
In the end, when Li Tianyang took out an account book and a piece of information and handed them to Li De and Gan Xingzhi, the calculation of planning Li De and Gan Xingzhi to Bengang was really started.
"What is this?" Li De took the account book in his hand and couldn't help asking.
"This is the account book that our ocean-going fleet brought with us when we returned from trading with the Japanese country the previous month, and it records in detail every harvest of our ocean-going fleet this time." Li Tianyang smiled proudly.
"What about the third one?" Li De asked again.
"That is the deployment map of the troops under the jurisdiction of the three prefectures and eighteen counties of Qiongzhou, I think since my father and third uncle have a foothold in Qiongzhou, how can you also understand the actual strength of other people's governments in the three prefectures of Qiongzhou!"
"Oh, that's a good thing, how did you get it?" Li De shook his hand and snatched the information from Gan Xingzhi's hand, opened it, and examined it carefully.
"Hehe, now the Penghu garrison officer Cao Yongyi has a very good relationship with the child, as long as the child wants, he can get it, and he has never refused the child." Li Tianyang said it easily, but in fact, his heart was dripping blood, this piece of information was in hand, but Li Tianyang bought it from Cao Yongyi with real money, and the cost was really not small.
To tell the truth, with the narrow vision of Li De and the pirates and their poor network, after growing to the current scale, they never even thought to understand how strong the military power of the government was in their sphere of influence. It wasn't until Li Tianyang suddenly came out with such a piece of information that it attracted the interest of Li De and Gan Xingzhi.
The more closely they looked, the more solemn their faces became, and the number of officers and men of the contingent with a roster of more than 32,000 was the exact number of officers and men stationed in the three prefectures and eighteen counties of Qiongzhou. It does not include the township Yong who has been suppressed and incorporated over the years because of the rebellion of the Li and other ethnic groups, as well as the number of heads and arrests under the official government.
There is also the Penghu Naval Division close at hand, with more than 3,200 people stationed in the area, although it has declined, but there are still more than 20 warships under his command, which is also a force that should not be underestimated. The number of officers and men of the guard centers in Leizhou, Guangdong, and other places across the sea is not underestimated, and there are more than 23,000 of them.
Compared with the current strength of their own mad shark, once upon a time because of the expansion of strength, Li De and Gan Xingzhi, who no longer put the officers and soldiers in their eyes, had to be drenched in a cold sweat in front of this detailed information, and they couldn't help but be glad that they and others did not attract the attention of the government!
As for the account book that Li Tianyang took out, it made Li De and the others no longer interested.
"The child originally thought, if the matter of Zhao'an has been clear, if the father and the third uncle do not dislike it, I Hongtang and the wild shark will become one, and everyone will conspire for a good background, but I will wronged my father and the third uncle to be the child's subordinates......" Before Li Tianyang's words were finished, he was interrupted by Li De with a resolute tone.
"You stinky boy, fuck off! I want to think that when Lao Tzu galloped across the South China Sea, there was no you! Li De turned red with an old face, glared at Li Tianyang in shame, and looked like as long as Li Tianyang dared to say a word more, he would beat people violently: "I want Lao Tzu to give you a hand, unless Lao Tzu can't hold knives and guns with his hands and feet!" β
Reasonably, Li De, whose macho spirit is engraved in his bones, can't accept that when he is in the prime of life, he becomes a subordinate of his own son, even if it is just a formality.
Over the years, the reason why Li De has rarely been close to his son and the forces he created is, in the final analysis, not just to suppress his son's careful thoughts and wander in his heart, otherwise he will not be able to stiffen his waist when he appears in front of his son.
Even Gan Xingzhi heard about Zhao'an at that time, although his heart was moved, but he thought that he would have to be on an equal footing with his son when the time came, and he dispelled this idea. I have to say that this is the sadness and limitation of this era, but it is so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people that it is impossible to resist.
"Father, please listen to the child, okay?" Li Tianyang didn't care about the interruption of his words, and continued: "Of course, the child also knows that his father is a hero, and he will definitely want to gain the recognition of the imperial court with his own strength. β
These words barely calmed the anger of Li De and the others, so that they could continue to listen to Li Tianyang's story.
"But to be honest, father, third uncle, Qiongzhou is no bigger than me Yuan Island, which is the official and clear jurisdiction of the imperial court. At the beginning, you were able to get away with it until now, and it was Mr. Zhang who planned well for you, set the goal on the fleet that sailed to the South Seas, and you did a good job of secrecy, so that you can develop to this point. β
"Now, father, you must have begun to feel the heavy burden while enjoying the huge strength!"
Speaking of which, Li Tianyang's words can be regarded as speaking to the hearts of Li De and the two of them. Now that the mad shark team is inflated, there is no place like Dayuan Island to reclaim wasteland and support the pirates' families, so a few of their masters can't restrain their subordinates, and let them boast of the looting of the realm.
"The forces between the prefectures and counties of Qiongzhou seem to be scattered, but in fact, the non-stop riots in the prefectures and counties over the years have made the quality of the officers and soldiers on this island not as good as those in the interior, and all of them are good at experiencing the battle formation. In addition, there are Penghu Sailors and Leizhou and other local guards watching from the sidelines, father, if you want to develop in Qiongzhou again, in the child's opinion, the government will never tolerate it anymore. Moreover, with the current expansion rate of your Wild Shark's strength, there is no longer a place to stay, and I am afraid that before you instruct, your warriors will make a nuisance to the coast and attract the attention of the government. β
"For now, if you want to break this dilemma, the child can only think of one way." Speaking of this, Li Tianyang once again took out a cylinder wrapped into a four or five feet long and spread it out on the round table where they were talking: "This is the map of the four seas that the child got from the Franco man, which depicts in detail the land and continent that their Franco man has set foot on. β
"This is the boundary of our Ming Dynasty, and this is the Dayuan Island where we live now, and this island farther west than Dayuan Island is the Qiongzhou Mansion where your father and third uncle are located."
There was no time to marvel at the true face of this world, Li De and the two of them were already stunned by what Li Tianyang said next at this time.
"If the child is in the position of your father, in the face of the current dilemma, the child's choice will be to abandon the entire Qiongzhou sea area, and instead go south to run this island community that belongs to Luzon, but in fact no one is stationed!"
"Hehe, Tianyang boy, you said this lightly, but do you know how difficult it is to want us to give up the territory we have been operating for many years and run to a strange place to redevelop?" Suddenly, Gan Xingzhi smiled sarcastically at Li Tianyang in a weird manner.
"Third uncle, you have been a pirate for so many years, do you know why the development speed can't catch up with the development of the kid in the past few years?" Li Tianyang smiled and answered Gan Xingzhi's ridicule with a rhetorical question, and at the same time, his voice changed, and he answered the question he raised by himself: "Looking back at the reason why Xu Hai and Wang Zhi and their gang were able to achieve a belt of heroes, Li Dan, the king of thieves in the world, can have great strength, and people rely on a piece of territory that they can have the final say?" β
"Xu Hai and Wang Zhi's generation, one controls the trade of the South Seas, and the other sits on the Wa State and divides the territory of the Wa State. Li Dan is a maritime merchant, but he funded the Japanese shogunate, befriended the Dutch Yangyi, and mastered the trade route between the Japanese and the Ming Dynasty, which made him famous today. β
It was only after the boy went to the Wa Kingdom with his fleet that he realized Li Dan's ambition. And father, you, it's not that the children look down on you, if you cower in Qiongzhou, a place where there is no oil and water, the future way out will definitely not be too big, but the children are worried that you will be chased by the government because of your excessive power. β
"Then you mean that only by going to this Lu Zhudao to develop can you have a chance to develop and grow, right?" Li De has been pondering what Li Tianyang said, but Gan Xingzhi is unwilling to confront Li Tianyang: "But how do I think that your kid has come up with this strategy, but he has an idea about our territory in Qiongzhou!" β
"Third uncle, please see, the LΓΌ Song Islands have always been a necessary place for the Nanyang fleet, and now that Luzon is occupied by the Spaniards, the king has become their puppet, so there is no official power in the islands, it is an opportunity for chaos, and the huge land and territory are just for you to take advantage of." Li Tianyang had already done his homework, telling the movements of the Spaniards and Luzon Island, and every word he said was loud and powerful.
"As for the territory in the waters of Qiongzhou, my nephew is not shy about saying that he is indeed taken by his nephew!" Subsequently, Li Tianyang calmly admitted his intentions, but it was like a shock, shocking Gan Xingzhi, who was originally guessing randomly, on the spot, and looked at him in a daze.
"Hehe, I'll just say, your natural boy has never been able to afford to be early, where is it for our sake, it turns out that you have taken a fancy to the territory of Lao Tzu." Gan Xingzhi reminisced, full of indignation and anger that could not be concealed, and said to Li De in an unkind tone: "Big brother, look at the good son you raised, before we enter the ground, he is already thinking about inheriting our territory!" β
Li De still didn't speak, just raised his head and looked at Li Tianyang with a solemn expression, hoping that he could give them a satisfactory answer.
"Father, third uncle Rongyu, what the child did this time, not for anything else, just hoping to recruit An and shine on the lintel. The ancients once said: Men can't eat five tripods when they are born, and they should cook five tripods when they die! Li Tianyang is not like a young man who is only twenty years old at this time, the domineering and domineering momentum that emanates from him, with the words he said, made Li De and Gan Xingzhi couldn't help but be impressed: "Although the child is not very old, he also wants to follow the example of Xu Hai, Wang Zhi and other predecessors in the previous dynasty, and seek it to come out all over the world!" β
"Okay, it's my son!" Li De had to admit in his heart at this time that his son had already compared him as a father with this heart and courage alone: "Since you have opened this mouth, then as a father, I have not been able to help you before, and this time I will give you what you want, and this Qiongzhou sea area will be given to you!! β
"Big brother!!" Gan Xingzhi is in a hurry, no matter what, this piece of land that everyone and several brothers have fought together can't be handed over to Li Tianyang's son in a word, so where did he put these brothers!
"I'm the big boss of the Shark, and I still deserve this family!!" There is no doubt that stimulated by Li Tianyang, Li De also revealed his domineering spirit in the South China Sea for many years at this time, but the object was his own sworn brother.
