Chapter 946: The Battle of Kyushu Eliminated (4)

Rodelni and his mercenaries were of course very willing to be 'fostered' by the crown prince of the Song Empire for a long time. Because they know that this crown prince is a big money lord and very rich!

If you are with this rich local tyrant, maybe when the aura of wealth will be touched by their dicks?

Anyway, let's be friends with local tyrants.

That's what these guys are saying.

Of course, being friends or something is just talking, that's impossible.

After all, the differences and gaps in identity are impossible for them to cross.

But it's still okay to be 'fostered'.

And the crown prince promised that there would definitely be a war in the future, that is, according to the contract agreement, he would get money once he fought a war, unlike on the European side, which had to settle the bill on a monthly basis.

This clause is very beautiful for mercenaries.

Moreover, when there was no fighting, they could still receive the salary of five dragon oceans a month. This kind of salary is also very good in Europe, which is a full tenth of silver.

Therefore, when the news spread, it even attracted many ronin samurai near Nagasaki to join in.

Don't look at Zhao Hongyu, they can be regarded as invaders strictly speaking, but for these ronin warriors, it is not a matter at all.

Ronin are lawless, they have no national beliefs and national ideas.

As long as there is money, then they can work for you.

This is completely contrary to the spirit of bushido.

However, Roderni would not care about this, because he was the leader of the mercenaries, and believed in fighting wars and getting paid.

This is very much to the appetite of the ronin.

What's more, as mercenaries of the Song Empire, what they received was white silver.

You must know that Lu Dao, on the side of the Wa Kingdom, silver is expensive and gold is cheap.

And without the words of the fight. The salary of five dragons a month is five taels of silver, which is much higher than the salary of less than one tael of silver for soldiers on the side of the Japanese country.

At the very least, it's also a head in charge of fifty people's salary.

So, how could the ronins of Kyushu not be impressed.

In this way, in addition to the 2,000 European mercenaries under Rodernier's command, he also formed a legion dominated by the Japanese ronin samurai, and its size also reached 2,000 people.

Under normal circumstances, it would cost a lot of money to feed so many mercenaries.

Basically, it's on the side of the Wakoku. No daimyo would do that.

Even if it was placed on the side of the Ming Dynasty, it would not act like this.

But for Zhao Hongyu, there is no problem, not even a little pressure.

The mercenaries of 4,000 people are now only 20,000 taels of silver a month.

The price of industrial silver on the other side of the virtual world has plummeted, and now it is four cents a gram.

If converted into one tael of silver, it is only thirteen yuan, and at most fifteen yuan.

Of course, the Eastern weights and measures at this time were hexadecimal. That is to say, one tael is equal to sixteen coins.

That is to say, one tael is almost forty-eight grams.

If you save trouble, it will be counted as fifty grams.

Then fifty times four cents, it's only twenty dollars.

According to this algorithm, a mercenary gets paid when there is no war on his side. It's only a hundred dollars.

That's a hundred dollars!

Put it in the virtual world world or the world world where Zhao Hongyu was originally located, even temporary workers and interns will not take so little.

Therefore, when Rodderny proposed to Zhao Hongyu, he agreed to Roddelny's suggestion without even thinking about it.

400,000 virtual world realm celestial coins a month. Feeding 4,000 cannon fodder who are ready to die, how can this matter be cheapened.

Now I am waiting for Li Xiang to see if he appears, if he does not appear for three days, Zhao Hongyu will leave Kyushu and go to the Ming Dynasty.

Take these mercenaries with you when the time comes. Take the time to see and see 'I Daqing', these people are definitely the best cannon fodder, aren't they.

It's like 400,000 virtual world realm celestial coins a month, and he hired a group of actors who use their lives to interpret them, so that they can watch movies with real people in real combat.

Human life is really worthless.

This is what Zhao Hongyu is most emotional.

However, he did not have the slightest burden of employing Europeans and Japanese.

Don't look at raising them alive now, but if there is a war, then they will be the first to rush to the front.

As for whether their combat effectiveness is guaranteed, Zhao Hongyu has no worries in this regard.

Because the contract agreement between Zhao Hongyu and Rodelni makes it clear, when these mercenaries fight, they will pay a high salary for every battle, and at the same time, they will also take out a part of the spoils of defeat against the enemy.

Therefore, there is no need to worry about mercenaries not fighting to the death.

After all, it was a matter of their own loot and purse.

So, these mercenaries must be very willing to fight, and they will also burst out with great enthusiasm for fighting.

Kyushu was initially decided, but Nagasaki had a very smooth transition here.

Yuji Kawabe and Yoshiyo Tokugawa, as well as Hattori Kizo and Iguchi Shuzo, also began to implement their own development plans within their own territories that had been newly divided into Koro, while stabilizing the people's hearts.

Because of the large amount of materials, as well as the tax-free policy, and various welfare measures, Kyushu quickly stabilized.

And with his strong combat effectiveness and reputation for fierce slaughter, Shikoku and other daimyo who were close to Kyushu did not dare to act rashly.

At the same time, the turmoil that broke out in the shogunate because of the shogun's position was now becoming more and more intense.

Therefore, even if the general Ishida and the emperor were released, they would have no experience to retaliate against Zhao Hongyu and them.

Today's Wa Kingdom has been divided into three major groups attacking each other.

Among them, with the former general as one faction, the general's younger brother as one faction, and the general's original favorite concubine as one faction, the three parties have already fought.

Chaos like this. It can't be calmed down in a short period of time.

If you want to decide a winner or loser, you can't do it without a few years.

It's not good, because of Zhao Hongyu's relationship here, it is even possible to fall back into the environment of the Warring States Period.

However, these have little to do with Zhao Hongyu.

Anyway, Zhao Hongyu had already entered Kyushu and achieved his goal, so he didn't want to waste any more time conquering the Wa Kingdom. Of course, this is for the future, at least not for now.

And the turmoil in the Wa Kingdom is also good for them, after all, it can give them a few years. Isn't it possible to develop yourself steadily in Kyushu.

With Zhao Hongyu's support, it only takes two years to think that Kyushu can make great changes. At that time, even if the Japanese regime was re-stabilized, they would not be able to pose any threat to Kyushu.

Everything is very beneficial to Zhao Hongyu's side.

What Zhao Hongyu has to do now is to wait here in Nagasaki, Kyushu for three days to see if he can receive a response to the kindness he released to Li Xiang.

If after three days, Li Xiang has no reaction. Then he won't be waiting any longer.

Zhao Hongyu will not do the thing of sticking a cold ass with a hot face.

He doesn't have to need Li Xiang.

Zhao Hongyu, who has a cheating device against the sky, is quite confident.

If it weren't for the hassle of saving yourself a little more time. In fact, Zhao Hongyu wouldn't use his eyelids to Li Xiang at all.

Now, it depends on whether Li Xiang can grasp this opportunity.

If you can't grasp it, then the Sea Dragon King of this time and space is estimated to be the same as him in another time and space. finally became Zheng Zhilong's stepping stone, and was annihilated in the long river of history-

Dividing Line –

There are five contiguous islands to the southwest of Nagasaki Port, and the place where the Nagasaki naval division was originally garrisoned was called Goto. Now the defenders of the five islands have surrendered. completely took refuge in Zhao Hongyu.

Even half of their defenders were transferred.

Half of the new Imperial soldiers and generals came to manage the five islands.

As the gateway to Daming, Taiwan and Southeast Asia, the five islands are very special here.

Under the control of Kyushu, apart from Goto, only Amamijima and Naha are the most important.

It's a pity that because the water division of the Japanese people is not very strong, Amami Island is now controlled by Li Xiang, and Naha, which originally belonged to Li Xiang, was seized and controlled by Zheng Zhilong.

Because Goto is close to Nagasaki and belongs to the important land of Kyushu, Li Xiang did not dare to make a move, which ensured that Goto was still in the hands of the Japanese people.

In winter, the sky is blue, and the skua is hovering in the sky looking for a target in the sea.

Standing on the lookout on the coast of the five islands, two Japanese defenders and a genetic soldier noticed that three Ming-style warships had appeared on the sea.

"This is a Ming-style warship, we need to report it to the garrison general immediately, and I don't know if Lu Dao is a naval warship on the Ming Dynasty side, we must not delay."

After discovering these three ships, the two Japanese soldiers, who were auxiliary, hurriedly suggested to the genetic soldiers.

From the faces of the two Japanese soldiers, this genetic soldier saw nervousness and panic, which showed that the Japanese were still afraid of Da Ming from the heart.

However, the Gene Man soldiers did not leave immediately, and also stopped the departure of the two Japanese soldiers.

"Let me see first, how can there be a Ming Dynasty ship coming here at this time? What's more, these three ships came from the south at first glance, and if it was a sailor of the Ming Dynasty, why did they have to come from the west. ”

After speaking, the genetic soldier took out a monocular, and looked at the past under the envious expressions of the two Japanese soldiers.

A large banner embroidered with the word 'Li' in black appeared in the telescope...... (To be continued......)
