The purpose of literature is to help man to understand himself, to increase his self-confidence, to stimulate his search for truth, to fight against the vulgar behaviour of men, to be good at finding good things in men, to awaken shame, anger and courage in their souls, and to do everything that makes man noble and strong, and enlivens his life with a good and holy spirit.

For the reward arrangements for the various armies of the Yanhuang family, Bai Feng only needs to draw up specific orders, and the subsequent bonus distribution and exchange of good land, as well as the pension of the fallen soldiers and the placement of the wounded soldiers, will be handled by special officials, and Bai Feng does not need to bother more.

However, the captured Mogami and Uesugi soldiers had to be dealt with by Hakumine himself, and the more than 50,000 Uesugi prisoners, all of whom were outright prisoners of war, did not need to make special arrangements, just order a force to escort them back to Oshu.

The total number of Mogami prisoners exceeded 40,000, and the arrangement was much more complicated, because among the more than 40,000 Mogami prisoners, only the more than 26,000 Mogami soldiers from Yuzawa Castle were actually captured in the battle, and the remaining 15,000 or so Mogami Ashigaru were all the most senior soldiers in Hasedo Castle who took the initiative to surrender to the Yanhuang family, and to some extent they were not among the prisoners of war.

If the Yanhuang family treats the soldiers of the Supreme Army who voluntarily surrendered as ordinary prisoners of war, then in the future wars, there will never be any troops of other families who take the initiative to surrender to the Yanhuang family;

After careful consideration, Bai Feng decided to let Assam on the front line lead his Second Aceini Legion to escort more than 60,000 prisoners of war of the Uesugi Army back to Oshu, and the Second Essini Legion was accompanied by more than 40,000 soldiers of the Mogami Army who went to Oshu to be reorganized.

Hakumine, who decided to accept the surrender of the Mogami Army as a matter of money, not only regarded the more than 15,000 Mogami soldiers who voluntarily surrendered as the object of reorganization, but also the more than 26,000 Mogami soldiers who were forced to surrender in Yuzawa Castle.

Not only the more than 40,000 soldiers of the Mogami Army who surrendered, but even the generals of the Mogami Army were also left in their army by Bai Feng;

The Rokuta family's governor, Yunari Rokuta, and the former lord of Hasedo Castle, Shimura Mitsuyasu, had to evaluate their abilities and loyalties before appointing them because of the peculiarities of their status, and they were accompanied by the captured Uesugi generals Ando Daiki and Miyazaki Yuya, who were the confidants of the escaped Uesugi Keitora, and Shiramine was interested in persuading them to surrender.

Uesugi Keiho, who can pose a certain threat to Uesugi Kenshin within the Uesugi family, is naturally not an incompetent person; Ando Daiki and Miyazaki Yuya, who were personally raised by him, according to the assessment of the Yanhuang spy army, will not be worse than Kunohe Yasuma and Izumiyama Koyasu.

The current Yanhuang family, the real first-class general is Sanada Masayuki alone, Sanada Masayuki's two sons Sanada Nobuyuki and Sanada Nobuyoshi are indeed very talented, but after all, the combat experience is still too little, and now he is barely a second-rate general.

The number of second-rate generals of the Yanhuang family was not large, and the number of second-rate generals in the Yanhuang family was not large, and there were only four people, Sanada Nobuyuki, Sanada Masayuki, Nanbu Nobuyo, Kunohe Yasuma, and Quanshan Koyasu; the reason why Iwasiczu Yoshikyo was able to lead an army alone was not because he had the ability to command troops, but because he knew the times.

With the expansion of the size of the army and the increase in the number of soldiers, the Yanhuang family's demand for generals is becoming more and more urgent; it is not difficult to train ordinary ashigaru generals and generals, but it is not easy to train generals who can lead an army at the level of subordinate generals.

Under the premise that there is no way to train high-ranking generals on a large scale in a short period of time, it is not a bad choice to recruit and appoint some captured high-ranking generals; you must know that Cao Cao, who has always been highly respected by Bai Feng, has done a almost perfect job in this regard.

In addition to the arrangements for the reorganization of the army and the many prisoners of war, Bai Feng also made specific arrangements for the defenders who remained at Hasedo Castle and Yuzawa Castle; the two brigades of the 3rd Division of the Yanhuang Standing Army would be stationed in the two cities respectively, and the other armies would need to continue to move south after resting.

The total annihilation of the 100,000-strong army under the command of Uesugi Keihu, and the 50,000-strong army that forced the Mogami family to surrender in the battle, and the capture of Hasedo Castle and Yuzawa Castle of the Mogami family, all of this was just a foreshadowing;

With the Uesugi family, which had lost 100,000 troops under Uesugi Keito, it would not be easy for them to organize a sizable army in a short period of time, unless Uesugi Kenshin wanted to fight the Yanhuang family to the death, otherwise he knew what he should and should not do.

The Mogami family, which had lost the 50,000 troops on the border and Hasedo Castle and Yuzawa Castle, was no longer as strong as before, and although there were fourteen counties in Ueno Province, the Yanhuang family only occupied four of them, but the Yanhuang family occupied a vast area.

Because of the fall of these four counties, the territory and population of the Mogami family have directly shrunk by one-third, and the other ten counties, which have a total population of less than 1.5 million, how many troops can they provide for the Mogami family? According to Bai Feng, this number will not exceed 200,000.

The information sent back by the Yanhuang Ninja Army and the Yanhuang Spy Army showed that the Mogami family's existing standing army was only 30,000, and even if the 70,000 peasant soldiers they had recently recruited were added, the number of troops that Mogami Yoshimitsu could directly use did not exceed 100,000.

Of course, as the dust settles on the battles of Hasedo Castle and Yuzawa Castle, Mogami Yoshimitsu will definitely carry out a larger-scale military expansion war, and neither Hakumine, who is sitting firmly in the rear, nor the generals commanding at the front, are all fearless.

How strong can the fighting power of the Mogami Army, which was formed with 30,000 standing troops as the core? The southbound Yanhuang Army was centered on the three main army corps of the First Banner Army, the Second Banner Army, and the Third Lucy Army, plus the two divisions of the Yanhuang Standing Army, the Jiuhe Standing Army, and the Sanada Standing Army, Bai Feng was completely sure that he would see his family's Yanhuang Tangling banner planted at the head of Yamagata Castle within a month!

Sanhe Castle is a fortified city in Oshu, and it is also the current capital of the Yanhuang family, but the location of Sanhe Castle is still too remote, which is extremely unfavorable to the future expansion of the Yanhuang family, so Bai Feng is now considering moving the capital.

Yonezawa Castle, the capital of the Date family in Shimono Province, Meisheng Castle, the capital of the Osaki family in Hitachi Province, and Yamagata Castle, the capital of the Mogami family in Ueno Province, are all objects for Hakumine to choose from.
