Chapter 164: Candidates for the Einsatzgruppen
The leader of this thousand-person team is the Kuroda family elder Otani Moriji, who has not fought for a long time, and in addition to the thousand-man team handed over to him by the Kuroda family, there are also those Miao characters in the Kuroda family's territory that he has collected over the years, and those Miao characters in the Kuroda family's territory are the countrymen lords of Otani, and now these people are his retainers. These Otani clans, together with their relatives and the strength under their command, reached more than 600 people, which was also the largest number of people in the Einsatzgruppen this time.
When the samurai of the Kuroda family went to war, the soldiers were basically not owned by themselves, and the soldiers were raised by the Kuroda family, and the samurai generally only had the ownership of the land, but they did not have the right to use the land, which means that they were issued a "State-owned Land Use Right Certificate", but they told you that we would give you rent for this land, but you don't have to care about what this land is used for when it is there.
Although this system is completely contrary to the ideas of many traditional samurai, when they find out that the Kuroda family will really pay the full amount of the land's stone high (in this case, the table height), and they do not need to manage the land, and most importantly, such land income is also hereditary, they can accept it more or less.
Previously, the Kuroda family gave Shimazu Tadashige a choice between acquiring land and just owning land, and Shimazu Tadashige, who wanted to live comfortably, chose the land ownership system commonly practiced by the Kuroda family.
However, this did not mean that the traditional samurai did not have their own retainers, but rather that they were able to earn a profit that corresponded to the height of the land (the Kuroda samurai were free to choose whether they wanted food or money, or the proportion of both), which also represented an increase in their actual income.
After having money, the samurai will still carry out some enjoyment activities, after all, the business in the Kuroda family domain is very developed, and they can spend as much money as they want.
However, as a samurai, especially a famous family like the Kuroda family with a lot of combat opportunities, even the retainers who are already very high in the samurai must constantly think of ways to obtain merit, and the most direct way is to hire capable samurai retainers and buy powerful weapons and equipment.
The Kuroda family's longhouse area is already very large in Kuroda Castle and Himeji Castle, and thousands of ronin, wild samurai, various craftsmen, and craftsmen from all over the world live in the longhouse area all year round, hoping to be favored by the Kuroda family or the Kuroda family's retainers, and beg for a bite to eat.
If it is the people in the territory of the Kuroda family, it is naturally easy to say, because the population registration system of the Kuroda family basically eliminates the possibility of them becoming traitors. If it is a person from the outside world, these people must go through an identity verification before coming to Kuroda's house, of course, it is just a simple interrogation.
However, after these people enter the territory of the Kuroda family, they will be forcibly arranged to live in a random place in the longhouse area for a period of time, which can be regarded as monitoring them.
After the surveillance period, they had some freedom in their lives in the longhouse area, but there were also soldiers of the Kuroda family who had suffered various major injuries in the war and could not continue to serve the Kuroda family, and monitored their movements in the longhouse area.
These veterans are very loyal to the Kuroda family, not that they have no possibility of being rebelled, but the Kuroda family has given them a stable job, and their families are in the Kuroda family and can live a stable life. If they were tempted by the desire for profit and accepted the enemy's offer and did something unfavorable to the Kuroda family, then their families would also be implicated, which was something they had to consider.
Therefore, there have been cases of plotting against the Kuroda family before, but as soon as the matter appeared, they told their superiors, or the leaders of the concentric people on duty, and then together they caught the spies on the spot, and executed them after asking for the information they needed.
It's not that there is no rebellion.,There was an administrator who was rebelled by the Oda family at a large price.,It's just that after that, he was found out along with the Oda family's spies.。 Because he was the first, he was sentenced to behead for rebellion, which was considered an example to the monkey.
The samurai of the Kuroda family will basically recruit a certain number of subordinates according to their own abilities, of course, these people are all found out of the tall among the short people, and basically the capable retainers are all recruited by the relatives of the Kuroda family, and even directly recruited by the Kuroda family, and occasionally one or two fish that slip through the net, and they are generally not good at martial arts, but their intelligence and internal affairs are not bad. However, due to the income limit of each person, there is also a limit to the number of such retainers.
Responsibly speaking, there is not a single number of Miao characters in the Kuroda family, and there are more people in the Otani family. Even if the hundred people of the Kuroda family have been absorbed, the number of people in the head of the Kuroda family is not as large as that of the Otani family. What's more, the hundred people of the Kuroda family in China are only regarded by the Kuroda family as ordinary wealthy families and countrymen, and they are just a little better at taking care of them.
This time the opportunity to play is rare, Kuroda Vocational High School deliberately let Otani Yoshitsugu play with his father, with Ohtani Moriji, at least his father should not have any private collection or the like, Kuroda Vocational High School is very much looking forward to the future of Otani Yoshitsugu.
The leader of one of the other three thousand-man teams will be Katsumasa Shima and Kazuki Aoki as the vice; One is Masaaki Masuda, and Miyake Ieyoshi is the vice; One is made up of Kisasa Keiyan, and Takemori Jizhen is the secondary.
There is a reason for Kuroda Vocational High School to arrange this, and the candidates for the main generals of these four special teams are basically people who have a certain relationship with the young samurai of Kuroda Rigao who went to fight before, or even close relatives.
These people must think that their relatives or friends are very worried, and it is precisely because of this that they may go to fight with the Otomo family for the safety of their companions, regardless of their own lives.
At the same time, the main generals and lieutenants of the four people sent out are basically the more outstanding samurai of the Kuroda family, and at least one of them is a candidate who can serve as the main commander of a thousand-man team.
Speaking of which, it was a special team sent out by the Kuroda family, and together with the Kuroda family's army, they attacked Takase Castle in front and back. But in fact, you have to consider that behind the Kuroda family rangers, there are also the wealthy families and people of Fengzen Province, as well as the people of the castle town, which is not very safe.
