Chapter 164 Recovering Taiwan
It has been more than a month since the Dutch lost the battle, and the Spaniards in Taiwan also got some news.

But they basically don't believe that the Ming army has a big killer.

Most people believed that the Dutch must have been driven away by Da Ming, and felt ashamed to invent a very powerful weapon.

With one shot down, there were no living people in a radius of more than ten meters.

How can it be?

But soon Li Zicheng taught them a lesson.

Fort Santo Domingo is not big, and Li Zicheng only sent a hundred gunners.

After only one round of attack, the defenders at the top of the city raised the white flag.

do not fight.

The news is true.

Daming's cannon is really powerful.

If you pretend to be more aggressive, you will definitely die!
With a smile, Zheng Zhilong asked people to accept the prisoners and occupied Fort Santo Domingo.Then move on to the next goal:
Santicima - Fortress of Trinidad.

News of the fall of Fort Santo Domingo quickly reached Keelung.

The supreme leader of Spain in Taiwan, named Russ, was shocked when he learned that the Ming army had captured Fort Santo Domingo.Didn't the Ming army just drive the Dutch away last month, so they came to the north so soon?
"My lord, what should we do?" A subordinate asked in a panic.

"According to the news, the Ming army has very powerful artillery, is it true?"

"It should be true!"

"Can we beat it?"

"Can't beat it!"

"Run?"

"what?"

"Run! I don't want to stay in this place for a long time! If I don't run away, I'll be a prisoner like a Dutchman! I heard that the Dutch authorities were extorted millions of taels of silver for the redemption of Putesman. Our superiors are willing to pay so much for us?"

"My lord is right! Shall I make arrangements?"

"Go quickly."

Then, a foreign merchant ship docked in Keelung saw a miraculous scene.

Ruth took his family and belongings and hurriedly boarded the boat and set out to sea.Then came the Spanish soldiers, and finally the native soldiers from Luzon.Confused them.I sent someone to inquire and found out that the Ming army had called.

"Shall we run?"

"Run? What if the Ming people arrested us?"

"I don't think there is anything to be afraid of. We are here to do business, not to fight. Mingren is still very reasonable!"

"Tell me! Didn't you get snatched by Nicholas Yiguan?"

"I just snatched it once!" The person who spoke had a smug look on his face!
"Damn! You're proud, aren't you!?"

"Anyway, I won't leave! I can earn at least 5 taels of silver by shipping this batch of deerskins back to China!"

When Zheng Zhilong arrived, the entire Santissima-Trinidad Fortress had almost run away.

What about people?

While Zheng Zhilong was puzzled, a voice came from a distance.

"One official! One official!"

Zheng Zhilong turned his head, and saw a thin monkey running this way, speaking Chinese.

"Don't fire! Don't fire! I'm a Siamese businessman! We've met before!" Seeing that he was being targeted, the thin monkey shouted and raised his hands.

"come over!"

"Ugh!"

The thin monkey ran over with a happy smile, and made a Chinese salute.

"You know me?" Zheng Zhilong frowned and asked.

"I know! I know! My caravan was once snatched by Mr. Zheng!" The thin monkey nodded repeatedly.

Zheng Zhilong touched his nose slightly embarrassed.Damn it, you still laughed your ass off after I snatched you away.I thought I saved your life!
"What are you doing here? Where's the Frankie?"

"They heard that Mr. Zheng was coming, so they ran away early."

"Then why didn't you run away?"

"I'm a businessman, as long as I can buy the goods with the money. As for the owner of the goods, I don't care. What's more, the entire port is owned by Mr. Zheng. With our friendship, cooperation must be very pleasant."

"The goods at the port are not taken away?"

"No, the Frankies want to throw away their own women, how can they have the time to bring goods!"

"In this way, you are responsible for informing the familiar merchants that after we take over the Keelung Port, everything will continue as usual. In view of the inconvenience caused by this war, the unfinished transactions will continue. Those who need to pay to the wharf will pay [-]% of the original payment, Let them not panic!"

"That's a good relationship! Thank you Mr. Zheng! I want two shipments of buckskins. Can you ship them tomorrow?"

"Yes! I will order someone to quickly count the goods, and everything will return to normal tomorrow!"

"Xie Zongbing! That little one will leave!"

"By the way, what's your name?"

"The little one is called Basong!"

"I remember you. You will pay [-]% of the original price for the transaction tomorrow!"

"Thank you, Zongbing! Thank you, Zongbing!"

Ba Song ran away excitedly, and vigorously promoted the Ming army after returning.

After Zheng Zhilong's actions, within two days, Keelung Port became lively again.A [-]% reduction in price represents a [-]% increase in net profit.What businessmen focus on is profit. As for who owns the land and who does business with, is it important?

Besides, the things are all left by the Spaniards, and Zheng Zhilong didn't spend a tael of silver, so why not do it.

Zheng Zhilong swept around again and arrested all the people on the island who belonged to the Spanish forces.According to statistics, there are more than 1000 people on the island, of which only a few dozen are Spanish, and the rest are basically Luzon natives.

Zheng Zhilong let one person go and asked him to go back and report to his superiors and bring money to redeem him.He planned to blackmail the Spaniards again.But his wishful thinking this time was definitely going to come to nothing, and the Spaniards simply abandoned these people.

He stayed in Taipei for a few more days, and let Zheng Zhibao stay behind when everything stabilized.He took his soldiers on the way home.

So far, the entire island of Taiwan, apart from the aboriginals, has no external forces.

As for the aborigines, Zhu Youjian does not intend to exterminate them all.

As long as as many people immigrated to the island as possible, with the assimilation ability of the Han people, it is only a matter of time before they are Sinicized.

Whether it is productivity or social culture, it is inevitable to develop in a more advanced direction.In layman's terms, more and more people would not want to stay in the deep mountains and old forests if they could have food and clothing and no worries about food and clothing.

So he ordered the establishment of Taiwan's chief envoy to set up two prefectures, Taipei and Tainan.He also appointed Shi Bangyao as the chief envoy of Taiwan.

Shi Bangyao was also a loyal minister who accompanied the martyrdom after the Jiashen Incident.

After he learned that Chongzhen had hanged himself, he took off his belt.He yelled: "The king has died for the country, but the minister can live by stealing!" Then he hanged himself.

But he was rescued by the servant and failed to die. He scolded the servant, asked the servant to buy arsenic, and committed suicide after drinking it with wine!
If a person has the courage to commit suicide once, it may be a hot-headed thing.But if he committed suicide twice in a row, it should be that he really didn't want to live.

Zhu Youjian's selection of him as the left chief envoy was after careful consideration.

One is that he is upright and has dealt with Zheng Zhilong.

When Zheng Zhilong first returned to the imperial court, Shi Bangyao was the magistrate of Zhangzhou at that time.In order to win him over, Zheng Zhilong gave him a gift made of amber gold.

Seeing the excellent craftmanship of this gift, Shi Bangyao liked it very much, and immediately kept this gift.

But he left things just for viewing.In the early morning of the next day, he ordered someone to return the gift as it was.At that time, Zheng Zhilong thought that Shi Bangyao was also a corrupt official who accepted as soon as he was good.Unexpectedly, when he got up the next day, he saw that the magistrate's yamen had already sent someone to return the gift, and told Zheng Zhilong that the magistrate appreciated the gift very much, but he could only appreciate it and not accept it.

Since then, Zheng Zhilong has been deeply impressed by Shi Bangyao's personality.

Second, he is kind and kind.

He once bought a maid and asked her to clean the yard.Unexpectedly, when Shi Nu cleaned the east corner of the yard, she would cry against the corner with a broom.

Bang Yao just passed by, and asked her strangely why she was crying.The maid replied, "This used to be the residence of my ancestor Yu Shi. When I was young, I dropped earrings here when I was playing here. Now I feel sad unconsciously when I come here."

Bang Yao couldn't bear it, so he took out the money from his daughter's marriage and chose a scholar to marry her off.

Such an upright and kind-hearted person is very suitable to be the chief envoy in Taiwan.

As for the governor, he does not plan to set up one for the time being.The situation in Taiwan is special, and he is afraid that the people he sent will mess up.

Zheng Zhilong knew the news as soon as he returned to Tainan. He was very happy and personally ordered someone to bring Shi Bangyao to the island.

"Mr. Siming, let's meet again!" Zheng Zhilong bowed deeply when he saw Shi Bangyao.

"You don't have to be polite as an official! Your Majesty has high hopes for Taiwan. You and I will work together to govern Taiwan well. We must not disappoint His Majesty!"

The two returned to the city hand in hand, and they couldn't help feeling a lot of emotion.

Life is really unpredictable
At this time Li Zicheng had already embarked on the return journey.Wu Youke lived in Taiwan.

Taiwan has been taken back by the imperial court, and more and more people will move to the island in the future. He wants to stay here to practice medicine and spread medical knowledge.Bring out a few apprentices before leaving.

Xu Yan had already recovered at this time. Although his injury looked serious at the time, it was actually just a skin trauma.In view of his strong and unyielding character, after Xu Yanru woke up, Wu Youke formally accepted him as a disciple, intending to teach him everything in the future.

Everything is thriving and moving in a good direction.
