"Don't think it's inappropriate for us to do this. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info" Chang Wei said: "Actually, this matter is divided into several layers. First, our sailors have to find people to train their troops, and we can't find a suitable opponent for the time being. Now our fleet is too early to challenge the Dutch, Spaniards, and even the Portuguese, and the strength is not enough, so it is just right to use warships to fight more pirates at sea and train the soldiers, which is a good thing. The second layer is, of course, to increase income, and it is estimated that more than one million expenses a year will be collected, and we will keep half of this financial source and send half to the military department, so that our side will be rich, and the military department will also reduce a lot of pressure. On the third level, small and medium-sized maritime merchants used to take risks when they went to sea, half of the danger came from the wind, waves and reefs at sea, and half of the risk was when they encountered pirates. If he and Yusheng continue to train with pirates to make this sea safe, do you think the merchants are willing to take a small half of the profits to buy peace, or do they want to venture on the sea as they did before?

Zhang Xuwen is also a top smart person, and he bowed at the moment: "I think left, it seems that we can indeed do this with great fanfare." ”

"The number of captains and sailors is enough, and the 4th Regiment has long been on board for training in batches, and this matter can be put on the agenda immediately." Chang Wei's face showed excitement, and he even swung his fist in mid-air.

……

Ma Rong chewed the grass roots in his mouth, and sat on the ground boredly waiting for the new military order.

The battle was over before dawn, more than half of the more than 1,000 pirates and sailors surrendered, more than 150 were killed, and dozens more were wounded, some of whom were afraid not to survive, and some of whom were probably disabled.

There is a ghost crying wolf on the side of the military hospital, since the other party has surrendered, the marching department will also show its benevolence appropriately, anyway, the medicine is ready-made, and there are some novice military doctors, it is good to practice with these unlucky eggs.

The soldiers were ordered to leave part of the camp to guard the Shizhai camp, and part of them to the beach to take care of the ships left by Yan Siqi, and most of them were ordered to withdraw to the base barracks, but before the disbandment order came, everyone had to wait cross-legged.

Lu Da and the others went to the canteen with the soldiers on duty to eat, and after dawn, the officers and sergeants on duty rushed back from the direction of the canteen with large buckets of food together with the soldiers.

The aroma of food wafted in, saliva flowed from people's mouths, and the soldiers began to move their butts in place.

"You guys did a good job last night." The thirty-year-old battalion commander pressed the saber and walked in front of the soldiers of the battalion, this person was not tall, at least in the eyes of Liaodong people like Ma Rong, he was a little short, and the bottom end of the saber was almost dragged to the ground.

"The marching division will ask for merit for everyone, and there will be a silver reward!" The battalion commander was not eloquent, and he blinked for a while, but in the end he did not say anything decent to boost morale, but fortunately, the military and political officers would come to record and check the battle exploits in a while, and at the same time they would say some warm words.

The silver reward is what everyone is looking forward to the most...... Everyone likes military and political officers, because generally military and political officers are picky and can speak well, and they are also kind-hearted people, and they are irritable or slippery, even if they can speak, they can't be military and political officers. Military and political officers are responsible for many things, ranging from writing letters for illiterate recruits to summing up military exploits, approving casualties, and ensuring the amount of silver and pensions...... These are the things that are most important to every soldier.

If there is no reward and no pension, what is the use of the military and political officer saying the flowers?

This time it was a serious battle, under the surprise attack, Yan Siqi's subordinates jumped and jumped, and they were vulnerable, and the fourth regiment did not have a single casualty figure at all, only a few unlucky people stepped on their feet in the dark night...... Everyone is worried, what if the marching division does not report the merits because the outcome of this battle is too disparity?

Now that the news came out of the mouth of the battalion commander, everyone was really and completely relieved!

Take the money, and win!

"A bunch of melon peels, eat it!" The battalion commander is a native of northern Shaanxi, Yulin Town does not accept himself at night, and he is very bold, this time he waved his round arm, as if commanding thousands of troops to rush forward: "Make it hard for the goose!" ”

Of course, don't say it, Ma Rong and the others have long seemed to be on fire in their stomachs, and they are already hungry.

"A large piece of venison stewed sweet potato pieces are enough, four taels of cakes per person, and you can line up for dinner!"

Everyone stood up with a hula.

When he first entered the camp earlier, he didn't know how many beatings these recruits had taken because of the queue, and Ma Rong was not convinced when he was beaten the first few times.

His mother's quilt should be folded into tofu blocks, and he must report when he eats and sleeps, and he must report when he goes to the thatched house, and he must have a sitting posture when he sits, and he must also have a standing posture when he stands, and he must clean his teeth and face to maintain his military appearance...... There are also military uniforms that have to be washed every once in a while, and military boots that have to be wiped every day, even if they are crawling in muddy water for a day, the first thing they have to do when they come back at night is to wash their clothes...... After all this time, queuing has become a part of everyone's physical memory, including folding quilts and polishing military boots.

Ma Rong has also adapted to it for a long time, Bo Zhuangzhi lined up in front of him, and muttered: "After running around all night and fighting, how can I give four taels of cakes, my stomach is hungry and I have to eat myself." ”

Ma Rong rolled his eyes and said, "Team officer, didn't you hear that the venison is enough?" The meat and sweet potatoes are enough for you to eat, and the four taels of bread are for you to eat, and you still plan to eat the bread without meat? ”

"Ah, I was hungry just now, but I didn't hear clearly." Bo Zhuangzhi smiled on his black face, after all, Taiwan's supply is not as convenient as the mainland, sometimes there is money and not necessarily sufficient supplies, the meat in the army is just enough, the ducks in the sea have not grown up, the number of chickens in the chicken coop is not enough, the pigs in the pig house are still very thin, and the number of sheep raised is not enough, in short, in terms of meat supply, it is estimated that there will be sufficient supply until next year, and of course there is some tension before that.

"This battle was not fought in vain." A gunner smiled and said: "Remember the merits, reward the silver, and eat enough meat, it's better to fight." ”

"It's good to fight."

"Training is a thief who dies every day, but it is easy to fight, carry a gun and walk, carry a gun and shoot two guns, and this is the end of the fight."

"That's also not a hard stubble, the twelfth regiment stayed on Phi Island, it was very bitter, I heard that I had to go to the forest to fight with Dongyu, that is, it was not so easy to fight, dead people are common."

Ma Rong's face showed boundless hatred, and he gritted his teeth and said, "If you can kill a Jianlu, you will be willing to die." ”

Bo Zhuangzhi's face, which has always been unashamed and heartless, also showed a similar look, although he was quick to hide it, but Ma Rong still found out.

Bo Zhuangzhi never said what happened in his family, but it is impossible for a man in his thirties to be without a family, but there is only one person in this house on Phi Island...... There are very few people who escaped from Liaozhen, but there are not many dead families.

"I'll go too." Bo Zhuangzhi turned around and said a word, then turned to Lu Da, who had straight eyes, and handed over the iron can in his hand.

"Holy shit." Lu scolded loudly, slapped a big spoon and poured it into the jar of the black-faced man in front of him, scolded in his mouth, and then said: "Come back and fight after eating, it's enough!" ”

……

"Why do Han people sit on the ground all morning?"

A few miles away, on the high mountains, a dense crowd of people crouched on the top of the hill or in the middle of the bushes halfway up the mountainside, a group of natives who were all the able-bodied men of a large shrine formed by several tribes.

Coincidentally, when the less fierce fighting broke out last night, this large shrine called "Dou Society" also convened a meeting before, and decided to gather the men of several societies such as Dou Society, Fonan Society, and Dairy Society, and come together to sneak attack those Han people wearing gray military robes.

In the early days of Fujianese immigration to Taiwan, it was inevitable to have disputes with the local aborigines, the territory was fixed, the Han people pushed further, and the aborigines had to take a step back, Tainan is a place where the plains are dominant, there are only a small number of mountains, and it is not entirely accurate to say that it is a mountain people, and most of the indigenous people from several communities who come today also live in the plains, but if they have a choice, they will still look for a place with mountains to settle down the foundation of the tribe.

Unlike Yan Siqi's Shizhai camp, He Yusheng advanced inland too quickly, and needed too many materials, which obviously made the invasion of the indigenous people more serious.

The two sides have fought several times in half a year, of course, without exception, these natives have suffered a heavy defeat, and the outer forts alone are enough for these natives to drink a pot, not to mention the more heavily defended base inside.

This time, several societies joined forces and dispatched more than 5,000 men, which is already the largest force in Tainan.

"Whether it is Han or Hongyi, they are all evil." A tribal leader said hatefully: "Defeat the Han people first, and then fight with Hongyi." ”

"Recently, dozens of people in our tribe have been captured by the red-haired people, and I heard that they are miserable, they do not have enough to eat, and they are abused and forced to serve hard labor every day." The other tribal leader had a gloomy face and his eyes were full of hatred.

For them, whether it is the Han Chinese, the Dutch, the Spaniards, in short, these foreign invaders really do not have a good thing, they are all a group of unreasonable, cruel and vicious invaders.

In contrast, the Dutch were much friendlier to the local Han people in Taiwan, probably because they wanted to attract Han merchants to come and trade, and the Han people were rarely bullied by the Dutch in Taiwan, even when Zheng Zhilong moved to Anping after recruiting An, and Taiwan completely gave up the same time.

The natives were the targets of bullying, whether they were Dutch, Spanish, Zheng, or later Qing government.

For hundreds of years, no matter how different the difference in strength was, these natives who lived by shooting and hunting and farming a small amount of land were unrelenting in resistance, even during the Japanese occupation.

"Kill, kill." The leaders stood up, and behind them were a group of people with feathers on their heads, deerskins, and longbows, and their weapons were very rudimentary, and some even had stone knives and stone axes, and their bows and arrows were very powerful, and like the equipment of all primitive tribes that lived by shooting and hunting, other things could be used, and bows and arrows must be well-made.

A large number of natives poured down the low hills, and thousands of people ran in scattered circles at first, and then in clusters.

The natives had not studied the formations, but they ran in a layered manner, with a small number of sturdy men running on the flanks and making strange shouts, a large number of archers running in the middle front, experienced and daring warriors ready to rush forward behind the archers for hand-to-hand combat, and behind the formation were some young newcomers with less physical strength or less experience between teenagers and youths.
