After having dinner, after watching Chen Yumo's mother and son and Mrs. Wu fall asleep, Li Tianyang went out and went to the Bengang Government Building, where someone had been waiting for him for a long time.

The person waiting for him is naturally none other than An Xianguo and Wu Hu, who are the political personnel of Bengang after Yumo was forcibly conceived by Mrs. Wu.

The lights in the conference room on the third floor of the government building were bright, and from the moment Li Tianyang entered the door, An Xianguo and Wu Hu's mouths did not stop for a long time, and at the same time, Li Tianyang's hands and eyes did not stop.

While listening to An Xianguo's report, Li Tianyang flipped through the paper documents in his hand, and it took more than two hours for Li Tianyang to have a preliminary understanding of the changes related to the Bengang forces in the past six months.

"I really didn't expect that I would miss such a good show!" Compared with other things, Li Tianyang is naturally more interested in the death of King Shangning of the Ryukyus, and the palace drama that happened when the new king succeeds him: "If we can choose to support Shang Zhiwu's arrogant man, I'm afraid we will have more interests!" ”

Of course, Li Tianyang would not be angry with Wu Daofu and Zhao Xingdou because of this, thinking that they did not seize the opportunity, but he was very sorry, if he was there, he would really take a great risk and support Prince Shang Zhiwu, who was even less favored and easier to control.

Moreover, Wu Daofu and Zhao Xingdou did not make a mistake in their choice, not only won the unanimous approval of the Ryukyu Kingdom, but also regarded them as real allies, which was not a small profit.

It's just that compared to the return of speculating Shang Zhiwu, it seems to be a step worse.

"My father wanted to convince Uncle Zhao that they chose Prince Shang Zhiwu, but young master, you also know that now my father is no longer a member of the Hongtang, but the Admiral of the Ryukyu Navy, and his opinion can only be regarded as a suggestion to Uncle Zhao and them." Wu Hu has also gained a bit of eyesight in the past few years, and he is not a personal participant, so when he is thinking in his head, he naturally does not have the same pressure as Zhao Xingdou and Wu Shu, so he is more inclined to his father's advice.

"It's no wonder that Captain Zhao and them, their choice was actually what I told me before I left, and now it doesn't seem to be a wrong thing, but it is much more secure!" Li Tianyang shook his head, and the regret on his face gradually subsided.

The captured warships of the Japanese sailors had been packaged and sold by Zhao Xingdou to the newly appointed King Shangfeng, but the silver money in exchange was just enough to make up for the expenses they had to spend when they entered Beijing this time.

With the gradual finalization of the "Yang Fan-style" warship, in Li Tianyang's vision, their Hongtang sea warships will be reequipped one by one, and the previous main force of 400 warships will be replaced with "Yangfan-style" warships, so not only the captured pirate warship Hongtang is no longer needed, but even Hongtang's own warships will be slowly eliminated in the following years!

The only regret is that Li Tianyang and his team have mature design drawings of the "Yang Fan" warship, but their own logistics cannot keep up, not to mention that the wood suitable for the keel of the warship is difficult to collect, and even the shipwrights who built these warships are not enough.

Therefore, if you want to really replace the warships of the entire Hongtang fleet with "Yang Fan-type" warships, I am afraid it will take almost five years.

Of course, in addition to selling the useless warship in his hand, King Shangfeng did not forget to compensate and repay the Hongtang soldiers who fought bravely for their kingdom after he succeeded him, so when Zhao Xingdou came back, the silver money carried by the ship was too much than a sea-going trade!

"Now after the change of guard, Wu Shu estimates that he will have to stay on the Ryukyu side for a long time, so Wu Hu, you will temporarily replace Wu Shu's vacant position as the head of the shark department. You have the burden of the security bureau and the defense force in Bengang, just leave it to the dogs, and let them exercise! After a general understanding of the team's situation, Li Tianyang began to sort out the affairs of Bengangzhong.

With Yumo giving birth to her daughter, it is impossible for her to be unable to preside over the affairs of Bengang for at least half a year, and Bengang also needs a host.

And when the daughter was born, at this time, Li Tu would definitely not want to separate from Yumo and their mother and son, at least in the short term, it was impossible, so at this time, Li Tianyang decided to take over Yumo's burden.

"Okay!" Wu Hu responded excitedly, compared to life such as being on duty in Bengang and managing the security in the port, Wu Hu still prefers life at sea.

At this time, the fleet that Wu Shu brought to Ryukyu was drawn from the two divisions of the Shark Department and the Leopard Division, so at this time, the Shark Department still had more than 2,000 soldiers in the Bengang base camp, but for Wu Hu, it was also a good scene for him to experience a hundred responses.

"And Xianguo, you let a carrier pigeon go out, let Yuegang Qisan and them hurry up the time to recruit manpower, and let our cargo ships cooperate with Qisan and them to recruit at any time, and it is best to replenish our lost manpower within half a year!" Subsequently, Li Tianyang turned his head and instructed An Xianguo: "On the way back to Beijing, we saw bad homeless people in Beijing, I heard that the area of Guanzhong suffered a natural disaster, if necessary, it is also possible to let Qi San and them go inland to recruit people, it is a big deal that we can hire a boat to transport these homeless people!" ”

"Okay!" An Xianguo nodded in response.

Battle damage is Hong Tang's eternal pain now, after every battle, leaving Hong Tang with nothing but victory, is the corpse of a companion, for Hong Tang, who has always been short of manpower, replenishing manpower has always been their most important thing.

And as the people of Bengang and Jilong Hong Kong gradually saw through the high risks behind Hongtang's high welfare benefits, let Li Tianyang talk about the welfare benefits to the sky, and there were very few people in the two places who were willing to join Hongtang.

Even the former pirates who were once placed in the two places because of their poor physical fitness, because Bengang and Jilong Harbor had a superior life, and after their physical fitness improved, they were not willing to return to Hongtang.

"I don't know if there will be a huge change in their thinking after taking these natives to Beijing this time!" Thinking of the source of soldiers, Li Tianyang's mind finally turned his mind to the huge source of soldiers around him, the aborigines.

If the patriarchs of this group of indigenous tribes could change and no longer strongly resist the Bengang team, and no longer suppress the clansmen's desire to defect to the Bengang team, then Li Tianyang and their recruitment of warriors would not be as uncomfortable as they are today.

Moreover, in contrast, the farmers and fishermen recruited from the interior want them to learn to pick up swords and guns and fight hard, and know how to fight, which is much more difficult than the natives who are born to be warriors!
