Yang Chendong expressed his understanding of the excitement of the generals of the army, and also put forward a request, that is, not to capture the entire Ryukyu Island at one time, but to take the Red Castle first, and use it as a base to expand to the entire island little by little, in order to make them obey by means of slow assimilation.

To make such a decision, Yang Chendong naturally has his plans.

In the final analysis, Ryukyu is still a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty and belongs to the list of non-conscripted countries. In the vernacular, it is said that Ryukyu is respected by the Ming Dynasty and is the boss, and will pay tribute on a regular basis every few years. As a condition for payment, if someone attacked them and threatened them, the Ming Dynasty also had the obligation to send troops to help them.

I don't want to be the enemy of the powerful Ming Dynasty today, Yang Chendong naturally won't do this kind of thing on the surface, more importantly, for the future development, he needs a large population, and while he can't snatch the population on the mainland of the Ming Dynasty, he can only use the natives of Ryukyu Island first, then every life here is precious, unless it is absolutely necessary, otherwise he can't kill at will, after all, the country is people-oriented, without strong population support, it will be even more difficult to do anything.

What Yang Chendong wanted was to take over the Ryukyu Island peacefully, and for this reason, he made three more decisions.

First, in order not to show the rumors, this time the attack on Chichicheng will be carried out in the name of the bandits. In this way, even if someone really leaks the news, it has nothing to do with him for the time being.

Second, it is necessary to strengthen control over this area of the sea, and only allow entry but not exit of Ryukyu Island. Anyone who goes out of the island is strictly inspected. In the event of suspicion, the means of detention were adopted, and in short, no one should be allowed to spread the news of the attack on the Ryukyus.

Third, when conquering Ryukyu Island, you can combine civil and military forces. That is, to use force to play a deterrent role, such as when attacking Chichicheng City, you can use cannons and modern firearms, and you can capture it with lightning speed to deter people's hearts. After that, the political instructors began to work, mainly to persuade and persuade them to surrender, and factories began to be built one by one, and water conservancy projects were built, and cement horses were built, and prosperous commerce was created, so that everyone could have something to do, food to eat, and money to take.

When a person is well fed and drunk, he will become accustomed to this peaceful life, and his thoughts of rebellion will be much lighter, which will be more conducive to management.

As for the issue of everyone having enough to eat, Yang Chendong has already made relevant arrangements. He took out a lot of potatoes from the big warehouse and prepared to plant them on Ryukyu Island. At that time, the yield of crops was very low, but it was only two stones (each stone is equivalent to about 188 catties now), but potatoes could indeed reach a minimum of fifteen stones, and as high as twenty or thirty stones. With this thing, it will not be difficult for the people to feed their stomachs.

Everyone has a job, and the problem is easy to solve. Roads need to be built on Ryukyu Island, and new concrete houses need to be built, and many men are needed for these. In the future, it will take a lot of manpower to build a glass factory and a granary.

As for women, they can work in garment factories, become teachers if they are educated, learn new songs to join the propaganda team, or enter the health center after learning, whether they serve the army or the people. As for those who are uneducated and uneducated, they can work as cleaners, maintain the hygiene and cleanliness of the entire island, and even contribute to the protection of the island as a female militia.

Even the children, Yang Chendong has an arrangement, they can enter the school to study, while joining the children's group, it is okay to stand guard and sentry, and it is also possible to conduct military-style training, so that all the people are soldiers.

This is a rainy day, when many people were still excited about attacking Chichicheng and occupying Ryukyu Island, Yang Chendong did take the lead and came up with enough solutions to the problems that would occur in the future.

Of course, the reason why Yang Chendong was so cautious was precisely because there were too many Han people on Ryukyu Island, which were his own compatriots, and they must not be killed casually. On the contrary, if it is a Japanese country, I am afraid that there will only be horizontal pushing, and those who do not accept it should be killed.

After various attacks and solutions were worked out, and even the specific person in charge was arranged, the award ceremony officially began.

April 28, 1447, 11th year of Orthodoxy.

On this day, the wind was beautiful and the sky was clear. The beach in front of the black pier is crowded with people.

The entire Black Wharf military and civilians have arrived. From the elderly over 60 years old to babies and children who have only been born for one or two months, they have all been mobilized here, and the population has reached nearly 10,000.

This is what Yang Chendong specially emphasized, how solemn and formal the award ceremony is, it naturally needs to be watched by everyone. Now there are still very few people under him, so it must be fully mobilized, and it should be enough to wait for the next time the title is conferred, and there is no need to mobilize the elderly and children.

Even the people, under semi-military administration, also stood neatly, and there was no commotion, except for a few babies crying because they were hungry.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, on the temporary cement award platform, Yang Chendong, dressed in military uniform, was the first to walk up to the stage and walked to a vertical microphone obtained from the big warehouse, connected to four huge speaker speakers, which was enough to ensure that his every word was transmitted to everyone's ears.

Yang Chendong, who was dressed in military uniform, was dressed in a marshal's uniform (the commemorative reservation in the Okura was found).

Generalissimo's epaulettes are golden yellow, the sides are red, 14 centimeters long, 5.8 centimeters wide; the epaulettes have a circle of silver-white pine branches, the two national emblems on the epaulettes are pure gold, the star emblem and the pine branches are embroidered with silver thread, and the layer of golden yellow on the epaulette panel is drawn out of pure copper wire and then gilded.

The cockade, star emblem, symbols, etc. of the generalissimo's uniform are also made of pure copper, and the golden-yellow places are gold-plated, and the silver-white places are silver-plated, and then painted. The generalissimo's uniform was decorated with a golden ribbon and tassel on the chest, the cuffs and collar were embroidered with golden trim, and the trousers were decorated with golden and bright red stripes on the edges, all embroidered with pure gold silk thread.

The blue military uniform is worn on his body, which makes Yang Chendong's posture even more upright and tall. With shiny leather shoes and a majestic big cap, it suddenly gives people a feeling of looking up.

Walking in unison to the microphone, Yang Chendong, who was wearing white gloves, first solemnly raised his right hand and saluted a very standard military salute. Then he decisively put it down, looked at the people in the audience, and said excitedly, "Today, all of us will be here to witness the arrival of a sacred moment, that is, the military award ceremony." ”

"Soldiers take it as their responsibility to protect their families and defend the country, and their existence is to protect the lives and property of all of us, in order to complete this mission, they need to give their youth, even their lives, so soldiers are glorious and sacred."

"Soldiers take care of everyone and forget their small family, they can't be desecrated. However, since ancient times, no country in history has had a holiday about soldiers, which is unfair and unjust. I, Yang Chendong, here, announce that in order to show respect and gratitude to the soldiers, August 1 of each year will be Army Day, which is a festival for the soldiers and a festival unique to them, and that day belongs to them, and the glory and glory will only bloom for them! ”

"Long live the Sixth Young Master!"

"Long live the Sixth Young Master!"

For the first time, the status of a soldier was raised to such an extent, and for a while, the excited soldiers below began to shout loudly and roar with all their might, in order to express their feelings of dying as a confidant at this moment.

In the crowd, Xiaoyu was also moved to tears by Yang Chendong's words, seeing that everyone's morale was so high, she was excited, and suddenly sang loudly: "Dongfang is red, the sun is rising, the country has a Yang Chendong, he is for the people..."

As soon as Xiaoyu started singing, the song was loud, and the other fifty teachers who knew the song were all singing loudly and excitedly at this moment, so as to express their feelings.

And the other soldiers, at this moment, can only widen their eyes and can't interject, if nothing else, they haven't learned this song yet? But even so, the singing of fifty-one people, no! It should be fifty-four people, as well as Qiaoyin, Yang Er, and Yang Si, who also came from Jianning Mansion.

Fifty-four voices shouted loudly, but it was also a lot of momentum, and the first time it was successfully sung, and the lyrics were also heard by the other soldiers. He Yang, Song Dacheng and other five instructors felt the significance of this song, and they made up their minds that after the award ceremony, they would immediately go to Xiaoyu and them, and they must learn this new song first.

After Dongfang Hong finished singing, the scene quieted down again, Yang Chendong's eyes were blazing, and his voice was like a flood of voice: "Next, please invite the awarding personnel to take the stage, and the awarding ceremony has officially begun!" ”

As soon as the voice fell, the sound of neat footsteps sounded on the award stage, led by Hu Mang, followed by Kaohsiung, Leng Song, Yue Guang, Tengshan, and Xiao Feng, who were also neatly dressed in military uniforms.

Among them, Humang, Leng Song, Tengshan, and Xiao Feng are all pine branches green, which is more calm and solemn.

Kaohsiung and Yue Guang were dressed in white naval officer uniforms, showing so dazzling and radiant.

Six neat sets of military uniforms are worn on people, which looks so neat and competitive. With a large cap with a Bayi cockade, it looks even more energetic and temperamental.

The feet are uniform black leather shoes that everyone has never seen, and a pair of white and clean white gloves look so capable and imposing. As soon as this costume came out, it instantly made many big girls and little daughters-in-law in the audience widen their eyes, and some of the bold ones already had a blushing expression, and they didn't know where to put their hands.
