Chapter 319: Pole Mineboat Battalion

During the day, the Ming army won a great victory, and although Kuroda Masao's own ship sank, and only three of the ten comrades on the same ship came back, the victory should be celebrated. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

This was not only a victory for the Ming Dynasty, but also a victory for their ashigaru, and Kuroda Masao survived, but also made a military exploit. For those comrades who died in battle, Masao Kuroda did not feel uncomfortable, but felt honored for them! After all, they were killed on the battlefield like a samurai!

Just as Masao Kuroda and his comrades were drinking, a long shout came from outside: "Miss Takaji has arrived!" ”

A group of brightly clad Ming soldiers surrounded a cute Japanese little Lori wearing a kimono and appeared at the gate of the pole mineboat camp.

"See the mother!" All the Japanese saluted.

Although Takashi Nobuko is only Wang Xinyu's concubine, she is also the wife of the prince, and the most important point is that she is a Japanese, and the more favored she is in the prince's mansion, it means that the higher the status of the Japanese mercenaries. Similarly, the Japanese mercenaries can make greater contributions, and they can also make Takashi Nobuko more favored in front of Wang Xinyu.

"Everybody, get up!" Nobuko Takashi said in Japanese.

Kuroda Masao has great respect for Takashi Nobuko, in his eyes, if it weren't for Takashi Nobuko to envoy Daming and borrow rescuers, then even if the Tokugawa shogunate was not wiped out by the Dutch, it would have suffered heavy losses, and they didn't know how much the reparations would be, so their lives would be even more miserable. As a result, Takashi Nobuko not only moved in to rescue the soldiers and rescue the people of Edo, but also won the opportunity for the Ming army to hire the Japanese, giving them these ashigaru a good life.

Nobuko Takashi's eyes looked around, and every Japanese person felt like she was looking at herself. When Nobuko Takashi's gaze swept over Kuroda Masao, Kuroda Masao felt a burst of excitement in his heart.

"Ladies and gentlemen, our army has just won a great victory! You have also made great contributions to my Ming Dynasty! Although I, Nobuko Takashi, am Japanese, but I am married to a native of the Ming Kingdom, so I am proud of the victory of the Ming Dynasty! At the same time, this is also an honor for you! As long as you make great contributions, promotion is secondary, and the key is to expand the territory of Japan for us! Nobuko Takashi spoke loudly.

Kuroda Masao respects this housewife very much, you must know that Nobuko Takashi is actually a master, and her martial arts are not lost to any of the big men present! Such a woman is the pride of Japan.

Sakai Tadanao heard the words "opening up the territory", and his heart was boiling, you must know that there are few people in Japan, so there is not enough land at all! Otherwise, why would the Japanese be so active when Toyotomi Hideyoshi called for an attack on Korea?

"May I ask Niangniang, where are we going to expand our territory?" After all, the strength of the Ming Dynasty is too strong, and the current Ming Dynasty is equivalent to the suzerainty of Japan, so the Japanese can't fight the idea of the Ming Dynasty.

Takashi Nobuko asked someone to take out a world map and spread it out on the table: "Everyone, please take a look at it, how big this world is!" And we in Japan, there is only one point of it! Even if it is Da Ming, there is only a small piece in the world! There are so many lands in the world, all of which are worth exploring! ”

Seeing the world map, Tadanao Sakai, Masao Kuroda and others gasped: This world is so big! I thought that Da Ming was already big enough, but it was only a small piece in the world! On the map, in the lower half of the Pacific Ocean, there is a huge island, but Sakai Tadanao and they don't know, in fact, it is not an island, it is a continent. And on the other side of the ocean, there is also a vast land!

"I didn't expect that there are so many landmasses in this world!" Masao Kuroda said.

Sakai Tadashi smiled and said, "Kuroda, you're lonely!" We, the Yamato people, have already gone to the opposite land, and I already knew about it, but I didn't expect the land on the other side to be so big! I thought it would be two or three times bigger than our Japan at most, but when I looked at the map today, I realized that the world is so big! ”

Masao Kuroda asked, "Is that piece of land on the other side inhabited?" Why does it seem like it was just a pioneer in the past? ”

Pointing to the location of the United States on the map, he said, "That land is already manned!" General Zheng Jing of the Ming Dynasty has already brought people over, and there are also a large number of aborigines over there. This piece of land will henceforth belong to General Zheng Jing. As for us, Japan, just north of General Zheng Jing's territory, such a large piece of territory, vast and sparsely populated, will be ours in the future! ”

Sakai Tadanao said excitedly: "Then why don't you hurry up and expand the territory, what are you waiting for?" ”

Takashi Nobuko said: "No hurry! It's a cold place, and the natives are weaker, so since you're mercenaries, you should help your employer get things done! When the battle is over, it will naturally be judged and rewarded at that time, and everyone who has made great contributions will be given a share of the land! In addition, the families of the soldiers who died today will also be able to share the land! The families of the fallen can also come as mercenaries, and when the next ship goes to Japan, another group of people will come out. ”

Being a mercenary for Daming has now become a good profession for the Japanese. In addition to the most dangerous pole minecraft sailors, there are other mercenaries, and among the army divisions, there is currently a battalion of Japanese, and the military salary is also one tael of silver per month.

Eagle Nobuko said, turning his head: "Come on, bring up the silver!" Today, the pole mineboat sailor battalion has made a great contribution, and the prince has spoken, saying that the pole mineboat has sunk the most Tartar ships! Most credit! Bonus to everyone! ”

Forty-seven ships, including 14 Dafu ships, 18 Haicang ships and 15 Cangshan ships, were sunk by the Qing army, of which 90% were sunk by pole mineboats controlled by the Japanese people! The sailor battalion of the pole mineboat sank a total of thirteen Dafu ships, sixteen Haicang ships and eleven Cangshan ships, which can be said to be the nemesis of the Qing army's big ships.

The reward given by the Ming army to the mercenaries was according to the fifty taels of silver for sinking a large ship, and if a pole mineboat sank a large ship of the Qing army and retreated, it would be worth ten taels of silver, and each sailor under his command would receive four taels of silver. If a person dies in battle, he shall be given a pension of ten taels of silver.

Sakai Tadanao was the general manager of Yingqian, and he was rewarded with three hundred taels of silver. If these three hundred taels of silver are taken back to Japan, it is indeed not enough, the prices in Japan are high, and daily necessities are extremely expensive. But these three hundred taels of silver are very valuable here, you must know that many Han people back then could not use one or two taels of silver a year! Three hundred taels of silver, you can eat the best restaurant, go to the best place, the top card in Changsha City may not be able to play, but you can still find a beautiful girl.

As for Kuroda Masao, although he only had four taels of silver, because of the death of Shicho, he was automatically promoted to Shicho, which was already very satisfactory to him, because he had changed from Ashigaru to a real samurai. (To be continued.) )
