澎湖地名之旅Part64 緝馬 赤馬
清朝建國將近三百年，朝廷治理澎湖群島自順治末期開始規劃澎湖行政區域，共分為十三「澳」（相當目前十三個鄉），其中以屬「西嶼澳」的「緝馬灣社」（目前的赤馬村）這個地名的掌故最多，那些掌故多是由高齡長輩口述，文獻上未曾記載，於此就年代較久遠之一段述說。
相傳，在元朝末期、明朝初期的政權交替年代，澎湖的社會秩序混亂，在澎湖做官的蒙古人忙著撤回大陸，漢人則以戰勝者姿態來到澎湖，在古代，不同民族的官僚要辦理政權移交，彆扭情形可想而知。
蒙古人治理澎湖的時間雖然不長，但是因為他們喜愛騎馬，因此在澎湖養了一百多匹馬，兩個民族的地方官吏在辦理地方政權及財產移交時，蒙古人故意將百多匹馬放走，但明朝派到澎湖來接管的武官吳禎，卻知道澎湖有不少馬，可是在移交時居然不見一匹。
此時，因為「倭寇」（日本海盜）趁元、明兩個政權交替的空隙，占據澎湖作亂，於是吳禎將軍一邊派兵驅逐「倭寇」，一邊到處尋找蒙古馬，果然，吳禎的一支小部隊驅逐倭寇到了西嶼鄉南部時，突然發現有一群數十匹的蒙古馬，聚集在一個小村落東側坡地下躺著休息，距離坡地東邊約幾十步路遠的港灣。
吳禎將軍的部屬將馬匹馴服後，將這一群馬帶回「媽宮」（今馬公市），部隊臨走前，就將這個小村落取名叫做「緝馬灣」，因此一直沿襲到現在，目前老一輩的西嶼鄉民仍然不叫「赤馬村」，而叫「緝馬灣」。
吳禎將軍部屬取名「緝馬灣」的時間，約在明朝洪武七年前後（1370），在清朝時代，「緝馬灣社」屬「西嶼澳」管轄，迄今已有六百多年歷史，光復後改稱「赤馬村」，赤馬與棕紅色蒙古馬頗吻合。
