The grass and trees that were cut down began to grow again, and Wei Dafa walked behind unhurriedly, Sawai Liang was kind, and the most important thing was that he would still want to cooperate in the future.

There are not many injuries in the ronin camp, only a few people are estimated to be feverish after being drenched in the rain, and the situation is under control, not to mention the bonuses that the elders will give later, the gold and silver jewelry that they grabbed this time alone is enough, these tribes usually have no aesthetics, and the proceeds of trade with the main island are basically used for the purchase of this luxury, and there are no carvings, and they are all gold bumps.

Wei Dafa, who escorted the indigenous girls back to the city, naturally tried his best to maintain order, this was the first time he had captured so many, to be honest, he still didn't have much experience, he was still very loyal in a hurry, fortunately, more than a dozen brothers were uncles and brothers from his own family, and some of them were brothers who were bare-butted in the river pond together, and naturally the hearts of the people were also a little bit of unity.

Although they stumbled and divided into several teams, but at night, in the end, they also arrived at the seaside a few miles away, and at this time, a small boat that Wei Dafa had already contacted was already waiting there, but the hull was not big, and Sawai Liang could easily see that not long ago, it still belonged to a fishing boat, and it was still difficult to squeeze hundreds of women into it.

These things naturally didn't need to worry about Ryo Sawai, it took three days to go back and forth, and when he came back, he found that the port had changed a little, there was one more wharf, and there was more ongoing construction, and there were more ships entering the port, and it seemed that they were all newly transported new immigrants.

That vigorous action and subjective initiative, even if you just look at it from a distance, it can be understood that as a Japanese samurai, he knows how barren the land of Japan is, at least, the small island with only a few thousand people just knocked down, that land can almost watch the sprout and grow, and such islands are said to be countless in the South Seas.

This time back,Sawai Liang's ronin camp has a nice name.,Stand up camp.,And the camp and various treatments are also formalized.,It seems that the previous task is a kind of trial.,Sawai Liang was awarded the position of battalion commander.,Of course,The political commissar is temporarily vacant.,Their food is also more anxious.,According to the young people in the town guard's house,,It's really a shortage of people.,So someone sends ingredients every day.,Cooked by people from low backgrounds in the stand-up camp.,Of course,The biggest surprise is,Some wine is also served every week.。

The remuneration was sent down, including the "special commodities" settled by Wei Dafa, the bonus issued by the town guard, and the military salary, everyone got the first money of about 300 yuan, of course, Sawai Liang honestly and unceremoniously carried more than 10,000 into his pocket, and his heart was already crazy, if he was in Japan, this was almost money that he could not earn in his life, more than a thousand taels of silver, which did not sound much, but it was possible to go to the poorest countryside and cover all the flower girls in a village.

As a low-level samurai, a month's worth of food is worthless, and it can only be exchanged for a few taels or even less than one tael of silver.

Of course, there are no idlers in Yada City at this time, and the sad guards are actually wounded soldiers, of course, the private economy is still very hot, as the ultimate of full food and thought, Sawai Liang and others naturally quickly found their goal.

There is a "bar" nearby, as a sign to attract pleasure seekers, there are many posters posted outside, a little samurai seems to have seen something strange, immediately report him, of course, the reason is that the woman on the poster is too real, is it some evil method, fixing people's souls on it?

Ryo Sawai had seen a magazine from the imperial capital in Edo, and knew that it was the so-called printing paper and photos, and at this time, this kind of high-end goods had begun to enter the hands of the daimyo and generals, and the Council of Elders was still very supportive of using this kind of thing to corrupt the upper echelons of other countries.

The bar is separated by a few streets, easy to find, but at night, it is very lively, after Sawai Ryo entered, he saw that the interior was very newly decorated, and on the front stage, a black and thin woman was wearing a revealing head scratching posture, of course, there was a railing in the middle, otherwise those ruffians would have to explode.

When Ryo Sawai first entered this kind of place, he didn't dare to make a mistake or make a fool of himself, but he saw that there was a place at the bar, so he took his two younger brothers over.

The guy seemed to be very talkative and came to ask what he wanted.

The sake that the Japanese love to drink is too low, which is inseparable from the special rice cultivation environment in Japan, just as the most popular rice wine in China at this time is rice wine.

In the end, he still ordered the kind that the most people here ordered.

Beer.

The beer was very cool, and after only taking a sip, Ryo Sawai was very surprised, and thought that someone had harmed him with poison, but seeing that the others looked as usual, he didn't worry too much, but this ice cube can appear here.

Even in Japan, ice cubes are an expensive thing that only a few people can consume, but before coming to Nanyang, at the home of a figure in the shogunate, he was fortunate enough to see the globe that showed the location of Yada Castle and the fact that it had never snowed here.

In a place where it never snows, there can be ice, and he immediately made up the ice by a sea ship, which was transported from far north, and the consumption in it can be said to be against the sky.

He glanced at it uneasily, this beer was not expensive, it was just one yuan, and one yuan could actually drink a drink with ice, which made him a little confused.

Then he began to straighten his waist, and now he is also a loyal lackey of the dignified Chinese adult, such a little thing is nothing.

Thinking of this, I began to try other wines, a glass of white dry two yuan, a barrel of rum ten yuan, it can be said that they are all high-quality and inexpensive masterpieces.

The three Japanese started drinking, but after a while, they found that many people were holding a thin black woman in their arms, or drinking for fun, or putting their hands up and down, but they were clamoring, but Ryo Sawai wanted to ask.

"If you want a woman, you have to speak first, there is a place to pick in the back, go quickly, and when the guy who changes the shift arrives, there will be no picking."

Only then did Sawai Liang know the subtlety, the soldier who spoke had a glass of wine in his hand, commanded Xiao Er to come over, and asked at the same time: "Ask for a good price, women are different, of course, they are all average, really good women, I have already picked them." ”

Sawai Liang remembered the woman who was bought by Wei Dafa before, and talked to this soldier named Hu Sanqi.

Hu Sanqi had just arrived in the south and fought a battle with the Tuwang of Nanyang, and the effect was not bad, so he withdrew to repair, although the Tuwang who was still in the tribal stage was not strong enough, but the most annoying thing was that his younger brother was all over the place, and the roads were not smooth, so it became a mushroom battle, and the research of the town guard house found that as long as there were three battalions on the front line, 1,500 firearms troops, it was enough to crush the natives who were armed with bamboo sticks, and other logistical resources could support more road repairers and hunting personnel, Who knows where and how many natives are hiding in that trader.

This seems very simple, but it is necessary to be highly concentrated at all times, and under the sun every day, all kinds of nutrients must be replenished at all times, otherwise the new troops will fall apart.

Fortunately, at present, the logistics are fairly supplied.

Hu Sanqi is also very depressed, in the process of the campaign, his troop attrition rate and meritorious service are good, but with the acceleration of the battle process, the veterans are constantly being sucked away, and the recruits also begin to make him depressed, but this kind of round war, most of the time for a middle-level cadre means fatigue, so he just came here to drink a drink, and at one o'clock he went back to rest.

Zejing Liang is very interested in Hu Sanqi, a soldier in the imperial capital who uses firearms, and the two began to chat, Hu Sanqi also has some memories of Zejing Liang's exploits, in his troops, a considerable part of the capture can be distributed in his troops, of course, to be open and fair, many times it is very complicated, and he will leave it to those showmen to manage.

Ryo Sawai obviously just tasted the sweetness, and the matter of destroying a small island is nothing in front of people who have already experienced the war, of course, Hu Sanqi is also cautious to express friendship.

The two Japanese ronins came back one after another, their faces full of red light, and Hu Sanqi's companion obviously took longer, and Ryo Sawai felt as if he had noticed something and talked about what had happened before.

"The imperial capital is merciful, for the women here, they are generally not allowed to be abused, sold back to their homeland or left in Nanyang, to those bachelors, of course, the fastest and most are actually Cantonese people, no wonder, Guangdong is too close, and the freight cost to ship back is more than one-third less than that back to Tianjin, you said Wei Dafa, I guess it is also a guy from Guangdong, these people are mixed in."

Sawai Liang didn't care about these women, but listening to Hu Sanqi's introduction, his 100,000 yuan seemed to be less?

He questioned it, but Hu Sanqi said it very clearly: "Let's fight and get money, they still have to take care of those women's food, drink and Lazar, or transport them back to Guangdong or other places, they have to have their own ships and their own ways, who do we know, it's difficult." ”

"The profiteers here are just as bad as the profiteers in Osaka."

Hu Sanqi was noncommittal, the profiteers naturally had their own calculations, but they did help a lot, relying on the republican Tongbao issued by the Presbyterian Church, as well as several credit cooperatives, after the initial financial system construction was completed, commerce also flourished, and it is currently in a period of crazy development, a large number of originally idle land to the hands of industrious Chinese farmers, all of which have become fertile land for the production of various fruits and grains in just one year, not including the sale of various rare numbers and animals, At present, China itself presents a situation of several systems in one country, Guangdong because the emperor is far away, there is no military threat around, so his small life is very happy, and the Jiangnan region gradually has seventeen roads against the king, the chaos of the war of the five kings, those upper-class families are more chasing and enjoying it.

At present, Jiangnan is too strong because the power of the gentry is too strong, and before there is no advantage of 100,000 troops, the Council of Elders has not planned to really start, but for the upper and lower strata of Guangdong, in the face of huge interests, all kinds of perverse behaviors in the legend of the imperial capital, the identity of the rebels, are all drizzle, and once they take these benefits, it will be difficult for them to leave the rule of the Presbyterian Council.

There is no need to even have any hesitation and embarrassment, the Guangdong customs and tax collectors can automatically be called the reactionary republican Tongbao as one of the sources of tax collection, quite after the Opium War, to 1949, although the government is also pretending to issue its own goods, but the people for all kinds of overseas currencies are never refused, from the beginning of the acceptance of Yinyang, to the end with the help of several masters of the country after the end of the broken fiat currency, the US dollar and the pound are the hedging currency.

Therefore, when it comes to money, the Chinese, who have the upper hand in pragmatism, will not make mistakes.

Hu Sanqi and Saki Liang chatted very happily, he was touted a few words at first, this bar itself was opened by wounded comrades, it is good to take care of business, of course, he doesn't look down on those vulgar fans.

The two chatted happily, although the vocabulary was insufficient, but soon they also talked about the next battle, according to Hu Sanqi, in this place in Nanyang, the musket may not be as good as Sawai Liang's long knife, the most important thing is the annoying jungle, he fought for a while, wanted to set fire to the forest, but he couldn't light it at all!

Of course, when it comes to how to fight the red-haired people, he is very proud, after rushing into the castle, many soldiers have already collapsed and surrendered, but many businessmen are very strong, continue to fight against the elder army with advanced equipment, even before they are killed in a row, Hu Sanqi is also full of respect for them, knowing that they will die and can charge, it can be said that they are very admirable warriors.

Of course, when it comes to women, another topic has opened up again: "Now in Nanyang, those families with daughters at home are all shaking, there are more men and fewer women, serious Han merchants, those who have survived the previous slaughter, the bride price of daughters is from 1,000 yuan, as for this kind of bar or those baths, they are basically local women, so, things are very complicated, you have to take care of your brothers, you know, this kind of place, the epidemic is easy to spread, as for the willow disease, it is with these red-haired people, be careful, I heard that the formation of the military club has not been going well, so we can only wait for news. ”

Non-combat attrition has always been greater than combat attrition, which was already in the prediction of the Council of Elders, so that Hu Sanqi is not a trivial matter, the morale of the soldiers is one of them, and the combat effectiveness is the second.

Recruiting personnel from unliberated areas into the army is of positive significance to the liberation of the localities, and this is normal in any era, but the regular training battalions are all in the north, and transporting people from the Liangguang region to Hebei to complete training and then to Nanyang in a panic is obviously a very low-cost and inefficient operation.
