"There aren't enough people, are they? This is really easy to do, and in the previous battles, the family had nearly 15,000 prisoners in Shikoku, Maori, and Tamba. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoBecause the two-year work period of the previous group of captives has expired, they will become ordinary people of their own family, so half of these captives will be devoted to the construction of roads and various facilities in their own homes, and the other 2,000 will be devoted to the mining of their own gold and silver mountains. Then there will be 6,000 people left, and I haven't arranged them yet, so I'll leave them all to my uncle. ”

"Six thousand! Coupled with the people of Zhou and Changzhou, as well as the existing men and horses of the legion, it should be enough. Matsui Shigetaka said.

"And uncle, this time the Inhata Nation Legion, plus the soldiers who surrendered everywhere, there are already nearly 6,000 (excluding the 2,000 elites of the Kuroda family led by Sanada Masayuki), they should all be here!" Kuroda asked.

"Hmmm! The number is indeed 6,000 people, but among these people, in addition to the original 3,000 people in Inaba Province, the strength of the other people in the Boqi Province and Iwami Province is really indescribable! In Zhou and Chang, my brother and I have already accepted nearly 4,000 people. ”

"That is 10,000 horses, in that case, based on the 3,000 elites of the Inaba country, and then from the remaining 7,000 people, select the elite who dare to fight, and expand the 3,000 people as appropriate, and form a 6,000-strong elite army to guard this week and Chang Liangzhou."

"Then what should we do with the remaining 4,000 people, should we just let them go back? They are all soldiers of various wealthy families and countrymen, and if they are put back, it will preserve their strength! Since I have already put these soldiers in the hands of our Kuroda family, how can I put them back! Matsui asked.

"Hmmm! Uncle, you are right, since you have come here, it is not a dinner invitation, you must have a good time. In that case, it is true that they cannot be let back, but how should these people be placed? Kuroda asked.

"Isn't that the question I want to ask you?" Matsui Shigetaka said with an embarrassed smile.

"Doom...... Let me think, let me think about ......"

Kuroda thought for a long time, thinking about whether there was the same event in history, at least to think about whether there was a solution in the same situation, and finally he suddenly said: "I know, uncle, you can let these people go to Tuntian!" ”

"Tuntian?" Matsui Shigetaka asked with some confusion.

"Even if it is Tuntian, the remaining 6,000 people, they will not be disbanded and sent home, all of them will be used for Tuntian, and the loss of these people will be compensated by the family in the form of land or money." Kuroda said with a smile.

"You are very cunning!" Shigetaka Matsui also laughed.

"How cunning am I?"

"Isn't it cunning that you got so many people with some money and land? You must know that population is priceless wealth now, once they lose these populations, even if they get the so-called corresponding compensation, how long will it take for them to be able to regain these populations, no matter how you look at it, the family will make a lot of money! ”

"Uncle, and you still missed one point, that is, these people were originally soldiers of each family. Although they exist as tuntian soldiers, they must not neglect their military training. ”

"Do they need military training too?"

"Hmmm! The family also needs to conduct regular military training for them. At least in case the big friends come over, these people can become the fighting power of their own family, and they won't all flee because they die a little. ”

"What does the possible attack of the Otomo family mean? Do you say that the Otomo family will attack the family when the family already occupies the western country? ”

"As I said before, the Otomo family is now the overlord of Kitakyushu, and there are many capable ministers and fierce generals in the family, and it is when it is in full swing, and this family must not take it lightly. If the family can't gather the soldiers in time, in the case of surprise, it is likely that the army will be defeated! Kuroda said.

"The Otomo family can gather 20,000 elites, it is indeed an opponent that cannot be underestimated! In this case, it is true that the training of these Tuntian soldiers cannot be put down, and I will order someone to pay close attention to this matter, you can rest assured of this. No matter what, I will try my best to ensure the safety of Zhou and Changzhou, who told me to be sent here! ”

"Uncle, since you are here, you are facing such a powerful opponent, you still have to be as cautious as possible, you must not have any luck mentality, and you still have to really develop these two countries well!"

"Kan Gongwei, it seems that I'm too optimistic, since I want to guard against the Otomo family, is my family's navy going to give me some support!" Shigetaka Matsui asked.

"A troll, is it? I'm also thinking about this matter, the navy must definitely be arranged, otherwise Zhou and Changzhou are like no fortifications, which is absolutely not allowed. The Honke Navy is currently composed of the original Honke Iho-gun Ming Navy, the Hidden Ambi Nation Akino Navy, the Nojima Navy, the Innoshima Navy, and the Tosa Nation Navy. One of them will be assigned to stay at Akama Pass for a long time until the family attacks Kitakyushu. Their mission is to monitor the movements of Kitakyushu and serve as the first line of defense for the circumference and longevity of the family. ”

"If the navy is stationed in Akama Pass, there is no suitable military port here before, and the port is used for trade with Kyushu, so for the arrival of the navy, it is necessary to find a deep-water harbor for them nearby and help them build a water barrage. And because of commercial reasons, it is absolutely impossible for the water army to be kept secret. ”

"Even if it's a secret matter, it's impossible to keep it secret for such a big move, as for the matter of the military port, this is what my uncle needs to worry about, and it has nothing to do with me."

"Kan Guard, you kid is really good! I have a feeling that you have calculated it. Matsui Shigetaka said with a smile.

"Uncle is joking, how dare I calculate you! You're my elder, and at most you've been assigned some difficult tasks. And my uncle, it's the current Akama Pass, which is a little too small compared to our possible actions in the future, and when the time comes, this will be the base camp of Kitakyushu, and the current little one is definitely not worthy of this task. ”

"That's why it fell on me!"
