Warring States Eagle

Chapter 288 Recruiting Samurai

"Yes, this island is divided by Huzi Bay. The bay can be used as a safe haven for ships to park, and the station of the second standing ashigaru squadron is not far from here, and they can provide support at any time. Usually, the bay is maintained by our navy. On the island, some farmers and soldiers temporarily recruited by the family can maintain the law and order." Hearing Akabane Shinnosuke's question, Masara nodded and said.

"The location here is indeed an ideal place. Not far from here is the maritime trade route currently controlled by the Matsuura Navy. There will definitely be a lot of merchant ships stopping here, and the family can use this to collect some money. Tolls," said Akabane Shinnosuke, fanning his red fan.

"Everyone, the defense has been arranged. After today's assessment is over, everyone will go to the station to perform their duties immediately." After deciding on the final arrangement for the navy, Zheng Liang said, "As for the construction of the territory, in addition to speeding up the promotion of the territory's laws, we also need to Quickly organize the people to reclaim the fields and repair the water conservancy, and strive to stabilize the entire territory before the arrival of spring farming. In addition, there are several marching avenues that need to be built here." Zheng Liang pointed to the map and said.

"These are the four marching avenues from Anyue Castle to the west of Dongsongpu Peninsula, Karatsu Bay, Rizai Castle, and Lion City, and the avenue from Ye Gaoshan along Tangchuan to Karatsu Bay, and the avenue from Karatsu Bay to Qishan Castle , a total of six avenues, which need to be paved immediately, and the newly captured slaves will be the main force of this work, and paid corvees can be organized when necessary,” Zheng Liang said.

"Your Highness, with so many tasks at once, the one thousand shi allocated last time may not be enough food," Dongxiang Heiji said with a frown. (First issue)

"Another five thousand stones will be allocated from the food reserves, which will be used for the compensation and rewards of this battle, and for the construction of the territory in the next few months," Zheng Liang said with a big wave of his hand.Six thousand shi of grain is enough to toss the territory for a period of time, except for this part of the grain.At present, there are [-] civil grain reserves and [-] shi military grain reserves in the territory, plus the grain that is continuously purchased through the Shenwu family.Enough for the time of the Luo family.It can be said that the territory has no food worries for the time being.

"As for the severed heads and corpses of the enemy, they will be incinerated," said Zheng Liang. Will collect the captured heads.The heads and corpses of these enemies are the source of disease. In order to avoid post-war diseases or even plagues, they must be disposed of uniformly.

"Heiji and Liu Le will be responsible for the above matters," Zheng Liang ordered.

"Yes, Your Highness."

"Your Highness, how should we deal with those wandering warriors?" Akabane Shinnosuke reminded at this time.

"Post up recruiting announcements throughout the territory. Let these people sign up at the recruiting station at the foot of Yegao Mountain. At the same time, set up a recruiting point in Tangjin Bay, where there are the most wanderers," Zheng Liang said.For these ronin who wandered in the territory but were forced to stay in the territory because of the territory blockade policy, we must be careful.

Now Zhengliang has imprisoned these people in a disguised form, and has not provided relief, so they must be given a way to survive.It just so happened that this large-scale recruitment of ashigaru and samurai could not meet the needs simply by selecting from the only remaining ashigaru of the Luo family.So these people can also be recruited as an exception.

That day, after the evaluation was over, all the retainers who got the task started to act one after another.

December 23rd, Tianwen Ninth Year, was a special day for the wandering warriors in Karatsu Bay.

In a tavern in Tangjin Bay, there are many wanderers sitting at the moment.

"So, there is not a single ship going out at the port?" said a ronin warrior.

"Yes, I have already gone to the port to inquire about it this morning, but it is still blocked, and there are not even boats going out to sea for fishing," another warrior said.

"Let's wait. Maybe it will stabilize soon." The samurai who originally asked the question said, "It's just that the Luo family is really powerful. They drove Bodo out of Karatsu Bay in an instant."

"Haven't you heard of it?" At this time, a ronin sitting next to him suddenly said, "Haven't you heard of the name of the Eagle of Matsuura?"

"The Eagle of Matsuura? Could this be the power of the Eagle of Matsuura?"

"Not bad," said the ronin proudly.I also admire the arrangement of the Patriarch in my heart, thinking to myself.This kind of task of publicizing the prestige and history of the family is the easiest to complete, and you will definitely get a lot of rewards after you go back.

"Quickly, tell us about the Eagle of Matsuura." The ronin around him also gathered around.Many of them have just arrived in Tangjin Bay, and they are going to stay for a while to see if they can find a job. If they can’t find a job, they will continue to wander to other places. There, they suddenly encountered a war that almost enveloped most of Matsuura County. In the end, I had to stay here temporarily.

"Okay, just listen carefully and you'll get to the bottom line," the detective from Luo's family, who was pretending to be a ronin, said calmly.

At the same time, similar scenes played out everywhere in the newly occupied territory of the Luo family.This is the method formulated by Zheng Liang to stabilize people's hearts, sending a large number of scouts to various parts of the territory, and then publicizing the outstanding achievements of the Luo family.Don't underestimate the power of this method. Due to the lack of entertainment, this kind of propaganda method is the most popular folk entertainment method in this era.With the spread of the outstanding achievements of the Luo family, not only did the new people gradually accept the new ruler, but also made some people with small thoughts completely give up.

"Quick, there are recruits outside, come quickly!" Just as everyone was listening to the outstanding achievements of the Luo family with relish, someone suddenly ran in and shouted.

"Recruitment?"

"Yes, the treatment is good, come quickly." The person who called out ran out first after finishing speaking.

With a sound of "coaxing", the people in the whole wine shop immediately ran out.What are they wandering around for?Don't you expect to be appreciated by a certain lord, and then roll out as a soldier to fill your stomach with it?Now I suddenly heard that someone was recruiting soldiers, so of course I couldn't wait to go there.

An open space on Tangjinwan Street was already surrounded by people on three floors inside and outside.

I saw that there was an empty space among the crowd, and a judgment was pasted on a wooden board.An ashigaru from the Luo family was standing in front of the judgment and loudly preaching the content of the judgment.The content of the judgment is mainly: After becoming an ashigaru or samurai of the Luo family, he will be provided with food, shelter, and equipment, as well as a generous salary and a piece of land cultivated by his family. citizenship.Of course, there is an additional condition, the priority is to bring your family to settle in the Luo family's territory or apply for a job to settle down.

"My lord, use me! My archery skills are amazing!"

"My lord, I once claimed the heads of two warriors in a battle!"

As soon as the ashigaru had finished preaching, the people around couldn't wait to join him.Where can I find such good treatment?

"Take your time, register here first, and then take the token to the recruiting station in Nodaka Town to take the test and practice. Those who pass can become the ashigaru or samurai of the family," the ashigaru who was in charge of recruiting shouted.
