Chapter 730

After more than 100 years of war, Japan has cultivated a large number of samurai and ashigaru with rich combat experience, as well as generals who are good at commanding operations. Although the Far East's death armies were all composed of wandering samurai from all over Japan, their individual combat effectiveness was among the best among all units of the Far East Army.

The samurai class in Japan, as a professional military group. Combat is the first mission of the samurai. The greatest fighting feature of the Japanese samurai is that they wear unique armor and have their own fighting skills. Because of his courage and tenacity, he is an extremely difficult professional soldier to deal with. In the Ming Dynasty's aid to Korea and the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the combat ability of Japanese samurai in individual soldiers and small groups was significantly higher than that of ordinary Ming troops. In particular, the samurai's sharp long knives and strange knife skills often defeated the Ming army, which was several times their size.

According to later statistics, at the beginning of the Tokugawa shogunate's pacification of the world, the number of Japanese samurai reached nearly 2 million, and even at the end of the Edo period more than 200 years later, the number of Japanese samurai was still nearly 500,000.

These Japanese samurai, after the settlement of Japan in the Far East, were definitely a factor of instability. Although the Far Eastern Army could concentrate on slaughtering a group of people in the regulations of the Japanese campaign, and then after pacifying Japan, it was trying to use various means to attack and destroy a group. But how could nearly two million Japanese samurai be killed.

Therefore, when Gao Jianguo, Li Ming, and Zhou Billy were formulating plans, they also put forward a lot of ideas on this issue. The first was to recruit a large number of samurai in Japan. The Military Commission left two independent battalions of the Death Army on Tanegashima in Japan, and Kenji, the deputy commander of the Death Army, trained the two newly recruited Death Army units in Japan.

Over the years, the Ministry of Intelligence has recruited a large number of wandering samurai in Japan, and this year they have been sent to Japan one after another, and two new wings of death troops have been formed. And that's just the beginning. In the coming months, two daredevils wings will be formed. Before the Military Commission launched the Japanese campaign, the number of troops of the Dare to Death would reach more than 20,000.

After the start of the Japanese war, the Military Commission will continue to recruit Japanese wandering samurai, gradually form more death army units, and strive to form a Japanese death army force of 100,000 people before the end of the war. They will be with a cavalry corps formed by the natives of the Outer Northeast of the Western Military District. As the main force for next year's attack on India.

During the Japanese War, the Shimazu family of the Satsuma Domain, the dogleg of the Far Eastern Company, would also spare no effort to eliminate the armed forces of the daimyo in various places. The company can also take advantage of this to help the Satsuma clan wipe out some of the daimyo as much as possible.

The death army units under the rule of the Far East will also massacre cities and kill prisoners all over Japan, forcing other daimyo warlords to have no way to survive and can only fight to the death with the Shimazu family.

Japan's hell is small, and the so-called pacification of the world is nothing more than a few islands. Where the fart is big. However, there are many warlords, and a township and county dare to call itself a country. During the Warring States period, there were more than 100 years of warfare, and even the Tokugawa shogunate did not really control all the territory of Japan.

This time, the company decided to completely solve Japan, which was to consume as much as possible the armed forces in various parts of Japan, uproot the Japanese samurai class and the daimyo in various places, and leave only the Japanese civilians at the bottom.

If you want to achieve such a goal, you have to make good use of the Satsuma Domain and borrow the sharp katana of the Shimazu family to go on a killing spree. Let the whole of Japan flow blood, and turn it into a purgatory on earth.

Even so. It is not realistic to completely wipe out all the samurai class in Japan. In the future, the company will try to eliminate the samurai class loyal to the Tokugawa shogunate and the daimyo in various regions, and co-opt the wandering samurai scattered throughout Japan. Strive to make them loyal to the Far Eastern Company.

The military committee's death army unit has been established for several years, and both combat effectiveness and loyalty have made the company very satisfied. Many of the daredevils had already married and had children, and considered them to be part of the Far East. In the future, the army of the daredevils will be built with them as the backbone. It will also be the backbone of the company's foreign wars of the Far East Company.

In the next few years, the military commission will launch the conquest of India, Indochina, New Guinea, New Zealand, Australia and other countries and regions, and a large number of military forces will need to be mobilized. The Japanese death army, the indigenous cavalry of the Outer Northeast, and the Mongolian cavalry will all participate in the battle as the main force.

In particular, the environment of Indochina, New Guinea, New Zealand, Australia and other countries and regions belongs to the tropical rainforest climate, and there are still many undeveloped primeval jungles in this era. The conditions are extremely complex, with poisonous snakes and mosquitoes everywhere, accompanied by various types of malaria, and the mortality rate is very high for people from other regions except the local indigenous people.

In the future, if the daredevils are allowed to develop there, it is estimated that some of them will be consumed. The samurai of the Japanese Death Battalion will also be scattered in the overseas territories of the Far East to assist the Overseas Corps of the Military Commission in maintaining local law and order.

As for the low-level civilians of Japan, they will gradually settle in the various areas under the rule of the Far Eastern Company, and they will become serfs in the farms of the Far East and coolie miners in the major mines, just like the Koreans.

As the work in Korea gradually unfolded, the Military Commission also began to prepare for the next phase of the Japanese campaign. However, before the main force is transferred out of the DPRK, it is necessary to form the DPRK security force to maintain law and order in the DPRK.

The Military Commission has drawn some troops from the various mountain militia brigades of the indigenous people in the northeast and the cavalry of the militia brigades to form a number of Korean garrison brigades, which are stationed in Bado, Korea. A number of key militia members have been selected from among the DPRK Escort Militia and armed police units have been formed in various parts of the DPRK. In addition, it cooperates with the militia escorts throughout North Korea as the main garrison force of North Korea.

In order to ensure the security of the DPRK, the CMC also left an overseas brigade in the Hanyang area of the DPRK as a rapid reaction force to deal with the sudden emergency situation in the DPRK.

After arranging the defense of the Korean region, the main forces of the three corps of the Korean Theater of the Military Commission also began to gradually move southward and station troops in Busan, in the south of Korea. Some of the troops withdrew from North Korea and were stationed on Jeju Island and Tanegashima Island.

Now that the Japanese civil war has entered a phase of stalemate, the Kyushu coalition led by the Tokugawa shogunate, the Satsuma domain, the Nagasu domain, and several other daimyo coalition forces are fighting fiercely in Honshu, Shikoku and other places in Japan.

The main warring parties were the Kyushu coalition and the Tokugawa shogunate's armies, and the two sides fought several battles, and the battle was in a stalemate. Several other coalition forces also took the opportunity to expand their territory and continue to encroach on the surrounding land, but they all tried not to participate in the war between the Kyushu coalition and the Tokugawa shogunate.

While the Kyushu Coalition and the Tokugawa Shogunate were fighting, both sides were also sparing no effort to win the support of several other coalition forces, hoping to expand their camps and achieve the final victory in the war. But the other forces are waiting to see which side will not hold on, so as to take the opportunity to intervene in the war and obtain the greatest benefits. (To be continued......)
