Tanaka saw that Matsuda had finished eating the relief food in his hand, and began to lean against the big tree and close his eyes to recuperate, knowing that Matsuda had opinions about himself, and that his dog-headed military achievements were not enough and more than defeated, and no one would feel comfortable in his heart.

"Tanaka! Is there really a good thing, would you still say? ”

Tanaka looked around, what he said just now was like a fart, and no one paid attention to it at all, so he could only continue: "When I passed by the dock of the shipyard just now, I heard several shipbuilders talking about it, saying that the owner of the island is preparing to recruit a group of assistants among the Japanese auxiliaries, with a number of 3,000 people, and the news will be announced soon, brother!" Are you ready to sign up? ”

"What did you say?" Matsuda opened his eyes suddenly, stared at Tanaka, and said word by word.

"I said I'm going to recruit the Associate Army!" Tanaka was a little proud, and said in an accentuated tone: "Really, I heard that the island owner has sent people, and this time three thousand people will be selected from all the auxiliaries, and they will be trained in the military camp for two months, and then assigned to garrisons in various places!" ”

Matsuda could have joined the Kyoko Army, but at that time he just wanted to live a peaceful life, so he refused the invitation to join the Kyoko Army and became an auxiliary soldier in Yakushima.

Because most of the auxiliaries are Japanese people, it is often mistaken that the auxiliary soldiers are Japanese people, and most of the Japanese are auxiliary soldiers.

However, this auxiliary soldier is not a soldier who goes into battle to kill the enemy, nor is he a person who provides logistics services in the back, and his work is almost the same as that of ordinary craftsmen, and he is a little similar to the engineering soldiers of later generations, but the treatment is very different.

There are more than 8,000 auxiliaries on Yakushima Island alone, more than ninety percent of whom are Japanese people, who usually build bridges and pave roads, cut down trees and build houses, and where a lot of labor is needed, there are auxiliary soldiers.

Most of the auxiliaries join the auxiliaries because they can't survive, and they are not allowed to leave within three years, if they work in the auxiliaries for five years, they can leave freely, and they can be allocated 20 acres of land, and after five years, they can continue to stay in the auxiliaries and receive a salary, which makes these auxiliaries have a little motivation.

However, after a long time, there were some active people in the auxiliary army, and I heard that the soldiers under the island owner were divided into three categories, auxiliary soldiers, auxiliary soldiers and soldiers, the treatment of auxiliary soldiers was not as good as that of the auxiliary army, and the treatment of the auxiliary army was not as good as that of the regular soldiers.

The treatment of the soldiers is the best, but the treatment of the co-enslaved army is not bad.

It is difficult to become a soldier all at once, most of the soldiers are Tang people, and there are also a small number of Japanese people, Silla people and Tatar people, but these people are also transferred from the co-army to the war soldiers because of their military exploits, so if you want to become a war soldier, in addition to the Tang people, you must first join the co-service army.

The treatment of the assistant army is not higher than that of the auxiliary soldiers, and becoming the assistant army is the second-class household registration, eating white rice for three meals a meal, and having a good salary every month, and after three years, you can get 50 acres of land, if you can make war achievements, you can not only turn into a soldier, but also be assigned a house .......

Many Japanese people who have worked as auxiliaries now want to join the co-enslavement army, as long as they become co-conscripts, there are Japanese women who are willing to marry them, and if they become soldiers in the future, the children born are the first-class household registration.

However, the conditions for becoming an assistant army are very harsh, and the conditions for not most of the Japanese people are difficult to meet, and they even have to examine how they behave in peacetime, whether they have a bad record of murder and arson, rape and adultery, and plunder, and at the same time, treacherous and ruthless people have no chance to become an assistant army.

After the attack on Sekaido from Silla, more and more Japanese fled from Seikaido to the Goho Islands and other places, from more than 10,000 people per month at the beginning, to 30,000 or 40,000 people per month now, there are more than 40,000 Japanese people in Yakushima alone, most of them have become auxiliary soldiers, and a few craftsmen with craftsmanship are treated the best, as long as they pass the assessment, they can immediately get a second-class household registration, and there are countless Japanese women vying to marry craftsmen, so that countless Japanese people are envious, jealous and hateful.

Matsuda originally wanted to do his part in farming, but the reclaimed land was either distributed to the Tang people or leased to craftsmen with craftsmanship, and Matsuda was not qualified to allocate land at all, or he would live with the Tang people and become a long-term worker or tenant in the Tang family, and Matsuda was naturally not willing.

After three or four months on Yakushima Island, Matsuda also figured out a lot of things, and if he wanted to get ahead here, he would either become an apprentice or join the Cooperative Army.

Matsuda is already in his twenties this year, long past the age of an apprentice, and only one way left is to join the army.

"Really!"

"It's more true than gold, maybe there will be news tomorrow", Tanaka saw that Matsuda was a little moved, and added fuel and vinegar: "Brother! I also heard that the co-operative army recruited this time is to return to Saikaido to fight, if only they could really return to Saikaido? ”

Everyone has a homeland complex, and Matsuda is naturally no exception, turning his head to his companions around him and saying, "Do you want to join the Cooperative Army, or let's sign up together!" ”

Matsuda usually treats these people under him, and when he heard that Matsuda wanted to sign up for the co-enlistment army, he was naturally willing to follow Matsuda, but there was a good one to take care of.

"Brother! Can I participate too? ”

Matsuda looked at Tanaka, who was a little thin, and didn't want to hit him: "Let's go together, it's not up to me to decide whether it's okay or not, show a little cleverness, maybe you'll be chosen!" ”

The news that Tanaka inquired about was not entirely correct, and this time as many as 8,000 co-enlisted troops were recruited, of which 3,000 were recruited by Yakushima, 3,000 by Tanegashima, and 2,000 by other islands, making a total of 8,000 co-enlisted troops.

And not all of the 8,000 Kyodo troops returned to Saikaido, only 3,000 of them were sent to Saikaido, and the rest were sent to Qiumei Island, Keelung Harbor, and Sakata.

The reason why it is necessary to recruit so many co-operative troops at once is because there are too many Japanese people, and some bad signs have begun to appear, and many places are basically full of Japanese people, and the unstable factors are becoming more and more prominent, and the stewards of many islands have begun to complain, if they continue to let the Japanese people gather together for a long time, although there will be no major turmoil, but disobedience to management is certain.

The matter has aroused Zhen Qian's great attention, but there is not much good way to deal with this kind of thing now, who made the number of Tang people too small?

The establishment of a Japanese alliance is the only feasible method at present, and now it is indeed necessary to have a Japanese army to charge for the Wufeng Islands, so let the Japanese people fight in all directions for the Wufeng Islands.

Sure enough, at noon the next day, Yakushima announced the news of recruiting the Cooperative Army, which caused a thousand waves for a while, and nearly 20,000 people signed up to join the Cooperative Army.
