"The Dutch are extremely greedy, the army is tyrannical and unkind, the captive tax, tith tax, and agricultural tax have made us breathless. The good days of being a big brother Zheng from North Island are really annoying. In addition, they are in love with the indigenous people, join forces with the land to promote evil gods, disrespect Mazu, and treat my man like grass, which is intolerable!"

In front of the ancestral hall of Chichinjialuo Village, there are torches everywhere, and countless people are crowded. This is originally a Mazu temple, but with the completion of the city of Relanzha on Yikun ten years ago (1633), the Dutch's ruling constraints on the sphere of influence in the southern part of the island became increasingly strict. It is inevitable that the Western religion and the suppression of Mazu and other beliefs will be promoted.

Although Guo Huaiyi was very dissatisfied, his arms could not resist his thighs, so he could only convert the Mazu Temple into a ancestral hall. At least this is the case on the surface.

Guo Huaiyi and He Bin were even baptized and appeared to believe in the Western religion.

"Today, the eldest brother of the official has led a large army of water and land to force him to come. The navy is stationed in Penghu, just a stone's throw from Relanzha. The army has advanced southward and will soon kill the enemy Heliao Port. So what should we do? Should we continue to be the red-haired ghost and be good at being the red-haired ghost, or should we take up swords and guns and fight with the red-haired to death?

Do you want to continue to live a life of half-dead under the Red-haired Ghost, or are you willing to live a good life under the command of the First Officer?"

What kind of life did the Han people immigrated in Taoyuan live? Now no one of the Han people in the south of the island knows.

During the period when Zheng Lian negotiated with the Dutch, countless news had been heard among mainland immigrants in the south of the island, all of which were about Taoyuan.

In fact, Taoyuan is really good now.

From agricultural tax to commercial tax, it is cheaper than the high taxes of the Dutch. Not to mention that the Dutch still has heavy head tax and tithes, but there is no such thing as Taoyuan. This is definitely the first place in Chinese history to abolish the head tax.

In the south of the island, the Dutch took away at least 50% and 60% of the results of the hard work of the immigrants in the year, and even 60% or 70% of the results. But in Taoyuan, Zheng Zhilong only took away 10% of the results.

This is not as good as not knowing, but I am not indignant in my heart. Why do we have to farm, and we have no worries about eating and drinking, and we live a comfortable life, but I have to eat bran and drink thin, and live a tight life?

The crops in the fields are obviously growing well, but after harvesting them, there are very few left after paying the heavy taxes stipulated by the Dutch. How can a family and a young family handle food and clothing?

The family has few labor and many children, and the situation is even more miserable. If the harvest in the fields belongs to you, it will be difficult to ensure the food and clothing of the whole family. If the Dutch take away most of it, then how can there be a way out?

Why is Guo Huaiyi's prestige so high among the Han people in the south of the island? That is the result of his kindness to others over the past decade.

How many of the families present today have received help from him in the past?

Therefore, Guo Huaiyi could respond to the immigrants in the south of the island.

While Guo Huaiyi was speaking, Zheng Lian had already appeared behind him.

"In the Xia Zheng Lian, he was the nephew of Zheng Longtou clan, and was sent by Longtou. He has been negotiating and negotiating with the Red-haired Ghost in the city for many days. He withdrew from the senior official and made this senior official a happy place for our Han family. However, this red-haired man was really greedy. Zheng Longtou gave up many interests in order to change the senior official, but they were not satisfied. He was not satisfied with the human face and beastly heart, but he was not proud of it, so he fought back and almost ruined my life. This time, I, Zheng, would not give up."

Zheng Lian said three true and seven false, but is this important? This is not important. From the day when Guo Huaiyi's butt was done to the Zheng family, all this was just an excuse and a prelude.

"Everyone knows the usual behavior of Uncle Guo. He and He Tongshi have known my family's leader for many years. They are sworn brothers from the past. That will never deceive everyone. As long as the Dutch red hair is driven away, my Zheng family will treat the people in the south of the island and the Han'er in the north of the island equally, without distinguishing each other."

A sensation immediately erupted in the dark crowd in front of the ancestral hall. These people were not just from Jialuo Village. Recently, Guo Huaiyi also invited the village heads of many Han villages in the south of the island.

They all brought a large number of young and strong men, and they would be the island's southern Yi soldiers later.

Guo Huaiyi was appointed by Zheng Zhilong to guard the island south, and the banner has been set up.

However, humans are very complex creatures. Some people stand on Guo Huaiyi's side, and some people are interested in the Dutch.

Just when Jialuo Village was crowded and crowded, a man rushed out of the village in panic. After confirming that no one noticed it, he ran towards Heliao Port until the beach tens of miles away, looking back from time to time, for fear that someone would chase him.

The panicked person didn't even care about the puddle under his feet. He stepped into the puddle several times on the road and fell all over his body, so he didn't even have time to take pictures of the desalination mud.

The Dutch obviously would not easily let such an indecent person enter Heliao Port, but after being stopped by the sentry, the man only whispered a few words to the Dutch guards, and he was immediately taken into it.

This mud-covered man named Guo Bao, who is also the first home of a Han immigrant village. The Tumei Village where he is located is located is right next to Chichi Town. When he rushed to Jialuo Village from his own village, he did not expect that Guo Huaiyi would rebel. Now he is going to report Guo Huaiyi. The latter is preparing to rebel and respond to Zheng Zhilong's army.

Among the news brought by Guo Bao, the most important thing is not that Guo Huaiyi is going to invade, but that Zheng Lian and He Bin appear there, and that Zheng Jun will respond!

This means that Zheng Zhilong has sent troops and the war is really about to break out?

The Dutch were very surprised when faced with the sudden news. Major Ferbger, the Dutch officer stationed in Heliao Port, immediately sent people to Chichi Town to explore Zheng Lian's traces and control He Bin. As a result, they were empty!

The two of them used the excuse of the storm as a reason, left the Raranzha Castle and the Dayuan Town, and moved to Chichi Town on the shore, but now they disappeared without realizing it.

The Dutch then martial law imposed on the entire Dayuan Town and Chichai Town, but only captured some of He Bin's relatives. When the latter was arrested, he had no idea about the disappearance of He Bin and Zheng Lian. He Bin worked with the Dutch for so many years, so naturally it was not in vain, but he could only keep his closest people. Those relatives who made their fortune through him over the years could only give up no matter how good the relationship was in the past.

He Bin must ensure the absolute safety of his close confidant and Zheng Lian. There are too many people and a lot of noise. What should the Dutch do if they find out? Do you really think they are all deaf and blind?

The only thing he could do was pray that the Dutch would not do things so utterly, otherwise, he would not blame him for being as cruel and ruthless as he was.

In the castle of Geranzza, the chief Paul Duradnius could no longer maintain his aristocratic demeanor. As a senior employee of the Dutch East India Company and the descendant of a Dutch nobleman, although he was an unfamous illegitimate child, Paul Duradnius always looked at his father who had already gone to hell in terms of appearance.

This is a very aristocratic person.

But now, the sudden evil news made him furious.

"This is an infringement of the company's dignity and a damage to the company's interests. I think we must prevent any infringement of the company's interests from happening." This is what the scene said.

In fact, Zheng Zhilong's army had not yet arrived in the south of the island, and this was a good time to defeat them one by one.

First take down Guo Huaiyi, use the wealth and blood of the Han people to enhance the soldiers' will to fight, and use the wealth of the Han people to enrich the material reserves of the Relanzha Castle. It also makes the Han people in the south of the island realize the inviolable dignity of the company. Then they fight against Zheng Zhilong's army.

"I agree." Putmante raised his hand and said, "First eliminate the weak Guo Huaiyi army, from a military perspective, is extremely correct."
