477. Expedition to Japan

epydz ("Huaxia Shangguo recruits Lifu to carry, and provides two meals a day plus white rice three times; Huaxia Shangguo recruits Lifu,"

Although the townspeople who had no time to escape from Edo cowered and hid in their homes, the japanese from the alley still found a way to penetrate their ears. Although this was a trap ensnared by the Xia army, people are iron fans It's steel, and I was so hungry that I didn't eat a meal. The Edo residents who were used to buying food on a daily basis didn't have much savings. recruitment point""

"Currently, our army controls a total of more than [-] captives, and the instructions of the general town have been disrupted to serve as auxiliary troops."

After taking over Edo Castle and Edo Town, an unimaginable golden mountain was displayed in front of the Chinese soldiers. Among other things, there are about three taels of Daikin Judgment in the general's inner library in Edo Castle alone. 15 pieces of small gold pieces weighing about three coins were sentenced to 25 pieces. As for the rest of the gold and silver treasures, pearls, jade, tortoiseshell, famous paintings and rare books, there are countless. There are dozens of times as much property as the general's internal treasury in the other courtyard of the shop. Gold and silver alone may exceed 500 million taels. As for copper coins and bronze wares, dozens of large ships with thousands of materials are filled

In addition to gold and silver treasures, another major harvest of Xia Jun is rice. Although it is said that the autumn harvest in various places has not completely ended, more than 50 shi of rice were transported by land and water during the interval between Xia Jun's two blockades. Edo, a metropolis with a population of nearly one million, ended up falling into Xia Jun's hands as expected.

With so much wealth, Xia Jun will naturally have to send it back to the country one by one. However, Xia Jun has several restrictions on transporting spoils. The first is the shortage of transport ships. It will take about [-] days to go back and report first, and wait until the rear organizes a large-scale fleet. Secondly, it will take a lot of manpower, mules, horses, vehicles and even transshipment to transport things from Edo Town, Edo City, to the big ships parked in the sea. boat

Of course, mules, horses, vehicles, and small closed fishing boats can still be found in the huge Edo, but the manpower is relatively troublesome. Naturally, it is impossible for Xia Jun to use most of his strength to carry out the task of Jingjie, so Using captives and recruiting local people has become the only option

"In addition to the auxiliary army, Master Qin immediately recruited more than 1000 Edo citizens to serve as labor labor."

"More than 3000 captives and more than 1000 people in the city are gathered together, and it will be troublesome if something happens." Even so, in fact, because there are warriors and rogues among the prisoners, the affiliation of warriors is also different, and there are also civilians. In the meantime, the possibility of a collective rebellion is still low. Of course, the cautious Yang Bokang is not willing to capsize in the gutter, so he looked around and called out, "Fu Dujian, take the second regiment of soldiers and horses along the way to suppress "

Fu Shaolin understood that this was for him to gnaw his bones, but he had already obtained the military merit of being the first to reach Edo Town, so he naturally had to give his colleagues some meat, so he could only promise with a wry smile: "Decree!"

After Fu Shaolin retired, Yang Bokang thought about it again: "Private looting is strictly prohibited in this dynasty, and the order outside the city should be stabilized."

Fu Shaolin, who is in charge of military discipline, has been assigned by Yang Bokang to guard the auxiliary army, so Yang Bokang called out by name: "Ye Fentong, you take a regiment of soldiers and horses to patrol the city, and if you find a disorderly army, capture it on the spot."

Ye Zuowei, commander of the [-]st Brigade of the [-]th Division of the Longxiang Army, had just stepped back after receiving the order. It was rumored that Gong Tian would meet him, so he broke up the military meeting and greeted him personally.

"Tianze, why didn't you notify me when you went ashore?" Yang Bokang said to Gong Tian with some complaints, "You still have to hand over the manuscript yourself. Could it be that the crows of the Overwatch Council are going to impeach this old man, don't they know the dignity?"

"Teacher said that," Gong Tian shook his head, "how dare the students, alas, speaking of it, it's not because of money."

"Troubled by money?" Yang Bokang frowned. "What's the matter? Come on, come in, let's talk later." While speaking, Yang Bokang led Gong Tian to a hall. Sit, so there is no chair, so I can only make do with Maza.”

Gong Tian was not in a hurry at the moment, he just scanned the interior layout of Bai Academy, and asked with some doubts: "Is this the general's administrative office? Why is it so low, it makes people feel a little restrained?"

"The Japanese were originally short, and it is said that today's generals are even more like boys," Yang Bokang explained casually, "You and I feel restrained, but the Japanese feel extremely open."

"That's true." Gong Tian nodded, sat down on the saddle, and then got down to business, "The envoy of the army branch sent someone to spread the word, saying that there are millions of taels of income, and the students thought that they would be sent back to the country as soon as possible. Lu also wanted to ask Teacher Fan, when the shipment will be completed, and the students will be personally escorted back to China."

"I'm afraid a few million taels is not bad, but it's not easy to clear them up so quickly if they are scattered in the city, let alone ship them." Yang Bokang stroked his beard, naturally he had some speculations in his heart, so he seemed to ask casually, "What's the use?" Don't be in such a hurry"
