Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 398 Big Belly Kingdom
The Ming army had just arrived, and they didn't know much about Taiwan's situation.

Seeing that the old man was a local, Zheng Chenggong immediately invited the old man and the other two into the Governor's Mansion for a talk.

In the past, Taiwanese were not eligible to enter the Governor's Mansion at all, and they didn't even have the opportunity to get close to it. Once someone approached, they would be immediately driven away by the red hair.

Now the commander-in-chief of the Ming army is not only very close to the people, but also personally invites them to enter the governor's mansion. The three were very moved and immediately nodded in agreement.

"Okay, thanks to the governor for looking at this old man, it's a great honor for this old man and others."

Zheng Chenggong smiled slightly:
"Old man, wait a moment, let's say hello to the folks before leaving."

After Zheng Chenggong finished speaking, he and Li Dingguo, Yan Yingyuan and Liu Wenxiu came before the people:

"Hello everyone, we are the chief generals of the Ming army, thank you for your trust in the Ming army, the red hair has been wiped out by us, no one will be able to bully our Ming people in the future.

The Ming Dynasty never forgot the people of Taiwan, and neither did the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. It was only because of the rebellion by the rogues, who captured the people of Taiwan from the east, that the Ming Dynasty had no time to take care of the people of Taiwan. We came late and made you suffer for so many years.

On behalf of all the soldiers of the Ming army, this governor expresses his deep apologies to all the people of Taiwan. Next, we are ordered to divide the land for you. Please disperse first and go home to wait for the good news..."

Zheng Chenggong usually doesn't talk much, but what he said today not only touched the people who came here today, but also made Li Dingguo, Yan Yingyuan and others admire him very much.

Li Dingguo couldn't help giving him a thumbs up:

"The governor is awesome, no wonder the emperor values ​​him so much, it turns out that he really has something in his stomach, I'm ashamed of myself!"

What is the situation of the people in Taiwan now? In their hearts, the Ming army is like Grandpa Mao who just liberated the whole of China. Can they not be moved?

Before Zheng Chenggong could finish his words, tens of thousands of people fell to their knees, and many of them had tears in their eyes:
"It's not too late, you came at the right time, as long as you can get rid of the red-haired ghost, it's never too late, thank you..."

"Yes, it's not too late. The Ming army will divide the land as soon as the Ming army arrives. We won't go hungry in the future. Long live the Ming Dynasty..."

After the people got up, they put the few grains and fruits in their homes in front of the governor's mansion, talked happily and left one after another. They all went home and waited for the Ming army to distribute their fields.

Taiwan is a region full of disasters and disasters in the history of China, and the people of Taiwan have also been invaded by foreign enemies.

In the 16th century, Western countries such as Spain and the Netherlands extended their tentacles to Huaxia Treasure Island.

In the 17th century, Dutch colonists invaded Taiwan at a time of internal and external troubles in Ming Dynasty.

Soon after, the Spanish colonists invaded the northern part of Taiwan.

In 1642, Spain and the Netherlands fought a war for Taiwan, but were driven away by the Dutch invaders after their failure.

The Dutch colonists implemented coercive rule, took the land as their own, forced the people to pay various taxes, and plundered Taiwan's rice, sugar, etc.

The raw silk, tea, porcelain, etc. purchased from Ming Dynasty were resold to countries all over the world through Taiwan to earn high profits.

Because of their brutal colonial rule, aroused the resistance of the Taiwanese people, the peasant leader Guo Huaiyi led a large-scale peasant uprising, trying to drive the colonists out of Taiwan, but ended in failure.

Historically, it took Zheng Chenggong nearly a year to subdue Taiwan. Later, Taiwan fell into the hands of the nothing-nothing Dongfang, and was finally occupied by the Japanese kingdom for 50 years.

Zheng Chenggong invited the three of them to the Governor's Mansion, and after their introduction, he found out that these three were all leaders of ethnic minorities in Taiwan.

Their ethnic group is in Taiwan, and it is also the main force that strongly resisted the colonists. They were very excited when they saw the arrival of the Ming army. They came to express their condolences to the soldiers of the Ming army as soon as the battle was over.

Zheng Chenggong and others also expressed their gratitude for their support for the Ming army, and asked them to learn about the details of Taiwan, and told the three of them about the land reform.

Although the three felt a little surprised, they did not express any objection. Their land was all in the hands of the Dutch, and after paying the rent and taxes every year, there was nothing left.

When the three left, Zheng Chenggong explained to them again:
"Thank you for the three visits. After you go back, you must explain the situation to the people. After the land is distributed to you, you will be exempt from tax for three years. After three years, you only need to pay a small amount of tax."

The three hurriedly bowed and saluted:

"Thank you for the Ming army's rescue, and thank the court for tax exemption. We will definitely not disappoint the court's expectations, and we will cooperate with you in land reform. You just need to pay attention to the Dadu Kingdom, and the other ethnic groups are not a big problem..."

Before they left, they specifically reminded Zheng Chenggong to pay attention to the Big Belly Kingdom.

Because the relationship between the Dadu Kingdom and Hongmao is good, they will definitely oppose the Daming Land Reform.

The so-called Dadu Kingdom is actually a cross-ethnic kingdom established by the aborigines of Taiwan, mainly based on the Babula, Bazehai and other ethnic groups. The tribal leader is called Dadu Fanwang.

The territory of the Dadu Kingdom is mainly in the current generation of Taichung County, Changhua County and Nantou County.

The natives of Taiwan are very powerful. They will oppose whoever rules Taiwan, whether it is the Ming Dynasty, the Southern Ming Dynasty, or the Eastern Captives.

In history, after Zheng Chenggong regained Taiwan, he fought against Zheng Chenggong many times, and was finally declared annihilated by Liu Guo.

Would the Ming army care about a big belly kingdom?Of course not, they are just a group of indigenous people who use cold weapons.

When they heard about the Dadu Kingdom, Li Dingguo, Liu Wenxiu and others all smiled contemptuously, not paying attention to him at all.

Seeing that Zheng Chenggong was lost in thought for a moment, Liu Wenxiu cupped his hands and said:

"Captain, Liu Wenxiu is willing to lead five hundred Dragon Banner troops to attack the Big Belly Kingdom, and promise that they will come to the door obediently within a day to apologize. If they are not obedient, let them taste the taste of grenades."

How could another kingdom exist within the territory of Ming Dynasty? Even if Liu Wenxiu didn't ask for a fight, Zheng Chenggong would make the Dadu Kingdom disappear.

But after hearing Liu Wenxiu's invitation to fight, Zheng Chenggong shook his head:
"Don't worry, we are new here, we can't touch the Big Belly Kingdom yet, at least we can't touch the Big Belly Kingdom without a reason, otherwise it will cause panic and distrust among the people of Taiwan."

Liu Wenxiu was so angry that she rolled her eyes and muttered something softly, but she could only shut up obediently.

"Hey, the governor is looking forward and backward when doing things. If they refuse to accept, we will fuck them. What's the big deal."

While they were discussing the Big Belly Kingdom, a Dragon Banner reconnaissance soldier walked into the hall:
"Report to the governor, there was news from a merchant ship just now, and they found a large fleet coming to Taiwan."

The four of Zheng Chenggong looked at each other and said almost in unison:

"It must be the red-haired ghost's reinforcements, but it's a pity they came too late."

The soldier hurriedly replied:

"Yes, they can judge from the flag that it should be the Dutch fleet."

Zheng Chenggong clicked, and immediately began to arrange the battle plan:
"Send an order to inform Zhang Huangyan, Huang Fei and Shi Lang to check their ammunition and prepare for battle."

"Yes"

After the orderly left,
Zheng Chenggong looked at Liu Wenxiu and Yan Yingyuan:

"Yan Yingyuan and Liu Wenxiu, you two lead the Dragon Banner Army to guard the island, and you must not let the red hair land on Taiwan Island."
