Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 305 Return of the Mountain Camp

After a battalion of marines arrived in Bengang, the troop carrier returned to Yizhou to transport the follow-up troops continuously.With the arrival of such a powerful new force, the people in the reclamation area did not dare to make any small moves.

As for the retreating pirates, some escaped from the troops and fled into the villages, and some fled into the mountains, where they were once again blocked by the soldiers of the mountain battalion who blocked the mountain road, and suffered heavy losses.

On the second day after Chu Yun arrived in Yizhou, Madman Cheng finally escaped from the forest with the soldiers of the mountain battalion, and he was also quite embarrassed.

When he found that Chu Yun had arrived in person, his jaw dropped to the ground in astonishment.

"Haha, Madman Cheng, you really look in a mess." Chu Yun brought people out to meet Madman Cheng, and saw that Madman Cheng was really disheveled. Body odor, it is estimated that it has not been washed for several days.

"I made the military master laugh. Look at me. I'm going to take a shower and then come to see the military master." Crazy Cheng was also a little embarrassed.

"It doesn't matter, you don't have to pay attention to your image when marching and fighting. You have entered the mountains and forests to encircle Zheng Zhihu this time, have you already captured him?" Chu Yun asked.

"Um, this..." Madman Cheng scratched his head embarrassingly, "Zheng Zhihu is too cunning, he escaped our pursuit many times, and finally let him escape. However, most of the troops he brought have been wiped out by us. There is no way to pose a threat to us. When I replenish supplies and go in again to encircle and suppress him, I will definitely be able to catch him."

"Stop encircling and suppressing Zheng Zhihu," Chu Yun said.

"The military master doesn't trust me to catch Zheng Zhihu? If it wasn't for the natives here to stop us, we would probably have caught him. Please also give us another chance at the mountain camp." Crazy Cheng thought that Chu Yun was right. Disappointed, the mountain camp hurriedly said.

"You don't have to be nervous. I'm not blaming you. Our front-line fleet has completely defeated Zheng Zhilong and occupied Xiamen Bay. Although Zheng Zhilong has not been captured yet, his Shibazhi's power exists in name only and cannot pose a threat to us. Soon our The fleet will bring back the captured pirates, and when the people here see the captured pirates, the news of Zheng Zhilong's defeat will spread, and even if Zheng Zhihu has more influence, his men will leave them one by one , and return to the village. We can disintegrate them without bloodshed." Chu Yun said.

"The progress of the Admiralty is so fast! So, those guys from the marine brigade..." Seeing Chu Yun's arrival, Madman Cheng knew that the marines protecting Chu Yun should also come along with him.

"Hey, Crazy Cheng, long time no see." Liu Wang said, "Originally, our marine brigade was responsible for the pacification of Yizhou this time. If the military leader did not appreciate you, your mountain battalion might not have the opportunity to participate in the battle. "

"Come on. Your marine brigade is just ordinary infantry moving and fighting at sea. You are as dumbfounded when you encounter mountains and forests. If it weren't for the arrival of our mountain camp, you would have died at least a large number of people." Madman Cheng retorted.

Although their marine brigade and mountain battalion also participated in the Yizhou battle, one was under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of the Navy and the other was under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War, and they were not at odds with each other.

"Wait, you said you met the local aborigines, did you have any conflicts with them?" Chu Yun paid attention to a problem that he was more concerned about.

Yizhou is different from Ryukyu.The predecessor of the Ryukyu Guards was the Ryukyu Kingdom, which was a feudal kingdom. The Ryukyu Kingdom had established a relatively complete management system before the arrival of the Liao Army, and it was very easy to take over.However, Ryukyu is basically still in a relatively primitive state of tribal form, and the language barrier makes it difficult to communicate effectively with them.

"Speaking of which, a conflict broke out with them. When our soldiers were chasing Zheng Zhihu, they accidentally killed the son of a tribe chief by mistake, and we were surrounded." Madman Cheng said.

The most feared thing still happened!
Chu Yun frowned slightly: "Killing someone else's patriarch's son is a bloody hatred, and they won't let it go so easily."

"Isn't that right? If we hadn't met noble people, how could it be so easy for us to come back. They put forward two conditions. The first is to hand over the murderer, and we will kill the captured pirates as a reward. We are our own people. The second condition is that we must not step into the mountains and forests, so I agree first, and everything is up to you, the military leader." Madman Cheng said.

"You, you still made a fool of yourself. Since you agreed to the second condition, let's do it first. We still have a lot of land that hasn't been developed. It's not a bad idea to keep the forest here as a reserve." Chu Yun thought for a while, His own forces do not have an urgent need for the mountains and forests of Yizhou, and there is no need to conflict with the aborigines during this sensitive period.

Liu Wang who was next to him noticed another important point: "Crazy Cheng, the natives in the mountains are all uncivilized savages. If you killed the son of their patriarch, are they so easy to let go?"

"Liu Wang is right. Generally, the wild people in the mountains tend to hold grudges and unite. They belong to the kind who don't touch the south wall and don't look back. You don't use rifles to deal with them and threaten them to agree to these conditions?" Chu Yun asked.

"The military leader was wronged, it's a long story..." Crazy Cheng looked innocent.

So he shared with Chu Yun what happened in the forest, including how he chased Zheng Zhihu, how he clashed with the Atayal people, and how he met the Atayal witch.With all these things, even a well-informed person like Chu Yun felt as if he was a world away.

"It's unbelievable that there is such a strange woman in the mountains." Chu Yun sighed.

"Crazy Cheng, you're making up stories to fool us. It's too bizarre." Liu Wang didn't believe it.

"I'm a martial artist. How could I make up such a bizarre story to fool the military leader. How about I send someone to the forest to invite her. If what I said is true, you Liu Wang will lose five taels of silver to me. If I What you said is false, I lost ten taels of silver to you, how about it?"

"Just bet, I really don't believe it." Liu Wang said.

"Master, you testify. If Liu Wang loses and refuses to accept his account, you can help me make the decision." Madman Cheng said angrily.

"Okay, I just want to meet this witch. Maybe we will communicate with the natives of Yizhou, and she will be responsible for teaching and integrating the natives of Yizhou into our culture," Chu Yun said.
