In a place that Li Tianyang didn't know, in fact, Li Dan and they had already done a lot of things, but they did it secretly and carefully, and Li Tianyang didn't know.

Previously, several medium-sized pirate gangs hooked up with the Dutch fleet of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, provided them with intelligence information, organized coalition forces to harass Jilong Harbor and Huludao, and tried in vain to delay Hongtang's support for Bengang's battles.

Later, the Japanese alliance army quickly gathered thousands of pirates, and Li Dan sent people to persuade each other and thread the needle in it, which is why the Japanese alliance brought so much harm to Hongtang.

But from beginning to end, Li Dan did not dispatch a single soldier, nor did he confront Hong Tang on the surface, and even took care of them in the trade of Qixintang's ocean-going fleet, so that Li Tianyang and them could not detect any malice at all.

It wasn't until Zheng Zhilong led the team to obstruct Wu Daofu and their pursuit of the Japanese people this time, which could be regarded as expressing his attitude on the surface, but even so, Li Dan did not mean to tear his face with Wu Daofu and them, although Zheng Zhilong's voice was a little tough, but in actual action, they were also very restrained from their actions, and they were not too aggressive.

Li Dan knows his own affairs, and his body has been deeply injured in these years of fighting, so I am afraid that time is running out.

He also has a son under his knees, Li Guozhu, who has watched his son grow up since he was a child, and he knows a lot about his son and ability. If this son is capable and courageous, he will not hesitate to use his old age, and is willing to do his best to remove all obstacles for this son, even if this Hongtang is strong, but in the eyes of Li Dan, who has been fighting for many years, it may not be impossible to get rid of it.

However, the tiger father and the dog son, Li Dan is a man who dominates one side from all over the world, but although his son has a small talent, he can be limited, and leaving him too much inheritance may bring disaster to their descendants. Lack of ability and possession of a huge wealth is in itself an original sin.

Therefore, Li Dan hopes to leave a stable foundation for his descendants in his lifetime, so that he can benefit future generations, rather than die like the Great Qin Kingdom.

Although for Hong Tang, Li Dan has a lot of small actions behind him, this is to suppress Hong Tang's expansion, and he has to do it to restrain their steps; But on the surface, he also took care of Hong Tang Li Tianyang and them, from his secret observation of Hong Tang over the years, he found that Hong Tang was not a pure pirate gang, they had more rules and morals, compared to the other pirate leaders that Li Dan knew, Hong Tang made him much more at ease.

For Li Dan to send people over to stop them from pursuing the Japanese fleet, to be honest, Wu Daofu and the others were surprised, but they also felt that it was reasonable, and they were about to kill the waters of the Japanese Kingdom, so if Li Dan, who regarded the Japanese sea areas as a forbidden sword, did not react, then he would be feared and admired by the pirates in the surrounding waters in vain.

"Since Li Da's stall head has said this, if we don't give the stall head this face, it won't be enough to be on the road." Wu Daofu pretended to ask for a moment, then smiled very heroically, hugged his fists and said to Zheng Zhilong: "But we sell Li Da's face as a stall, but we also ask Zheng Zhuangshi to bring a message to the Shimazu family, the lord of Satsuma, the Ryukyu Kingdom is a subject country officially recognized by our Ming Dynasty, and they invaded the Ryukyu capital for no reason and captured the Ryukyu King to Kagoshima for more than three years, which has offended the majesty of our Ming Dynasty." Now, in the name of justice, I, Hongtang, have been entrusted by King Shunny, the king of the Ryukyu Kingdom, to expel the Satsuma Japanese people from the five islands of Amami in the Ryukyus. ”

Wu Daofu's words are high-sounding, but after thinking about it, there is no truth at all, they Hongtang is not a regular army under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty, how can they represent the Ming Dynasty to aid the Ryukyu Kingdom!

Fortunately, this Zheng Zhilong is also an old Jianghu, and everyone may not know what Wu Daofu said, but at this time, although he is proud and confident, he is not stupid enough to laugh at him in the face of the leader of the Hongtang Division in front of him: "Okay, I will convey this to my father-in-law, as for whether my father-in-law will convey it to the Lord of Satsuma, then I don't know." ”

"Then there will be work!" Originally, Wu Daofu and they already wanted to retreat, but at this time, since even Li Dan, the lord of the sea, came to speak, Wu Daofu and they were still earning, and they could settle down with Li Dan: "By the way, please bring my young master and say hello to Li Da's stall!" ”

"No problem!" Pride is pride, the rise of Hongtang is now another legend in the pirate world after Li Dan, especially for Zheng Zhilong at this moment, the young man of the same age as him in the legend has achieved such a scene with his own strength, which makes Zheng Zhilong, who is also a young and vigorous young man, both envious and jealous.

Zheng Zhilong led the fleet to negotiate with the Japanese people in Samoto to negotiate in detail, and Wu Daofu and they returned with the team silently.

However, even if Shang Zhong was a fool, he would never dare to have the slightest complaint about Wu Daofu's retreat at this time. Don't look at them, the Ryukyu Kingdom is known as a country, but Li Dan gallops across the South China Sea region, and his strength is so great that even the Tokugawa Shogunate of the Wa Kingdom has to give him a little thin face, and where is it that they can be offended by a small country that can't even beat the daimyo of the Wa Kingdom.

It was Wu Daofu and them, who went to sea this time, and originally thought it would be another vicious battle, and the Hongtang team members didn't know how many people could go home in the end. But who would have thought that not only did the battle not start in the end, but they took advantage of it.

The materials replenished by the Ryukyu Kingdom did not lose a cent, and they also got 10,000 taels of gold for nothing, and Li Dan also sold a face and gained a favor, by the way, let Li Dan bring a message to Satsuma, at least it can ring the alarm bell for the other party, after this incident, they will not dare to act rashly.

Returning to Amami Goto, Wu Daofu asked his men to rest in the Amami Walled City, while he himself was to meet the Ryukyu King and discuss with him about the return of Amami Goto.

The location of Amami Goto is good, and there are more than 10,000 Ryukyuan and Japanese people living on the five islands under the management of the Japanese people for more than ten years, and the area of this Amami Oshima is not small, enough to reclaim a lot of land. To tell the truth, Wu Daofu really wants to occupy this place and not return it to the king of the Ryukyus.

But as soon as Li Tianyang had an appointment with King Shangning, and with the contract as evidence, Wu Daofu was really embarrassed to regret it.

Second, Huludao, the easternmost stronghold of Hongtang, is more than 600 miles away from Amami Island, and a round-trip trip is more than half a month.

There's no fourth update, and I'll make up for this one on Wednesday!
