In the Fujihiro Conference Hall.

"Your Highness, although our family has harvested thousands of stones of grain this time, the territory is currently Shigao, and it can only barely maintain the expenditure of 2,200 people. We need to continue to reclaim the land," said Heiji Togo.

"Yes, according to the consumption of 1.8 s, each person, the territory will be incredibly small. This is how, from tomorrow, you will organize the promotion of the territory laws of the newly occupied land, and speed up the organization of personnel to carry out corvee labor for reclamation. The labor labor expenditure is tentatively 500 s. The newly reclaimed fields will be fully promoted to the crops in my test fields." Zhengliang replied, "In addition, for the one who died in this battle, he will give his family a pension of 10 s at one time. If the family is in trouble, he will give him regular monthly relief. The male person who has not been in office for the first time, arrange it as my little surname. Since the two injured petitioners can no longer participate in the battle, they will be arranged to be in the village as the head of the village to assist in the daily management of the village. The salary is the same as when he is in the petition."

"Yes, Your Highness, my subordinates are very grateful to Your Highness for your kindness," said Heiji Togo.

"Your Highness, will you deal with this regulation in the future? I'm afraid the burden on the territory will be greatly increased in the future," said Daxi Kuoji in a low voice.

"Well, Heiji will increase these to the territory laws; as for the issue of increasing the burden on the territory, it will indeed exist, but doing so can greatly boost the morale of the samurai and improve the combat effectiveness of the soldiers, which is worth it." Masayoshi nodded, affirming the doubts of the Oxi Kuoji, and at the same time analyzed, "Everyone, although our territory has been expanded several times, it has attracted the attention of the surrounding powerful people, so please be sure to stay alert. Let Guoji talk about the defense situation of the territory below."

"Yes, Your Highness," Osaki Kyuji bowed and said, "After two days of repeated inspections and publicity, the newly occupied territory has been basically stable. A total of 36 samurai from nearby powerful men and three former loyal relatives have been captured. Among them, those samurai have been cut and killed, and there are still 30 samurai from other powerful men who need to confirm how to deal with it."

"Everyone is demoted to slaves," Masarara decided directly without thinking. Among these new slaves, 20 people were reported by the people. For this reason, Masarara distributed a reward of 100 stones of miscellaneous grains according to the standard of rewarding 5 stones for each report. Masarara felt very painful for this, so Masara had made up his mind that if these new slaves could not generate 200 stones of income, they should not plan to return to freedom. "At the same time, all the leaders of Fujihi Castle Town now were forced to move to Notaka Village, and the refugees recruited were arranged to be recruited one after another. Each of the leaders of Fujihi Castle migrated will be given a certain compensation, and the seeds will be provided to them immediately after settling in Notaka Town."

"No, Your Highness, this may cause these relocated people to turmoil," Donggo Heiji immediately advised him.

"Hmph, all those who participated in the turmoil were demoted to slaves, and severely cut and killed them directly," Masayoro said harshly, "Of the 30 sergeants, 13 of the captured sergeants were from Fujihiro Castle, which was inseparable from the intentional shelter of these territorials. In order to avoid causing a worse impact, they could only cut the mess quickly." The retainers looked at each other and felt once again that their territory was not as stable as they seemed.

"The Nagakura family and the Oda family, which border the territory of the Honda family along both sides of Fujihiro Lake, have always been interested in invading the territory of our family. The Toho family on the other side of Fujihiro Lake has a marriage relationship with the Oda family, so they should not be taken lightly," said Kyoshi Osaki, who went on to the south, "The Takara family in the south has even gathered the peasants and soldiers of the territory to form a confrontation with the Honda family at the border."

"Hiss" everyone's excitement as their territory expanded immediately dropped to the bottom.

"Everyone, in order to deal with the bad situation that my family may face in the future, I decided to recruit another 103 squads and form a 200-person squad team with the original 97 squads and 200-person squad team. As for the question of how to recruit new squads, it should be based on the last selection method. Priority should be given to the peasant soldiers who have surrendered to this battle." Zhengliang paused and saw that the retainers had no objection, and then continued, "200 squads, 40 long spear squads and 10 archery squads were divided into four teams. The first team was located near the residence of the Lord of Yetaka Mountain, and together with 40 cloaks, they were used as territory.

The motor force of the second team is directly led by me; the second team is located at the junction of the territory with the Tsunoya family, led by Kyoji Osaki and responsible to me; the third team is located at the shore of Fujihiro Lake, led by Hirozo Tsuda, and responsible to me; the fourth team is located at the junction of the border with the Donoya territory, led by Tadajiro, and responsible to me. Tadajiro, iron tools are built there, you must strengthen supervision over others at the same time to ensure the supply and maintenance of the territory's agricultural tools and weapons." In this way, after the adjustment, the Luo family has a total of 40 intermediate samurai (cloak), 160 spears and 40 bows and arrows and foots.

"Yes, Your Highness", the four people who were arranged immediately bowed and accepted the order.

"The original 97 foot lights were broken up and distributed to four teams to drive new foot lights to speed up the training speed," Masara continued to instruct, "The spring plowing time has passed, and the original semi-regular training method of returning to the farmland in the first half of the day of training in the second half of the day, adopt the same full-time regular training method as the samurai, and then adjust it separately during the autumn harvest. The original training method of the territory has been proven to be obvious in several battles. Take this time to quickly defeat the three powerful families and lightning blockade of the territory's borders as an example. The leaders have no time to respond at all, and each team must strengthen the training effect. Sahararo and Kissararo."

"Your Highness", the two who were called out immediately responded loudly.

"I now appoint Sahararo as the second and third squads, Kissararo as the first and fourth squads; I am responsible for the military merit records, rewards and punishments confirmation and calculations of each squad, and the ideological education of the team; the salary is 25 s. Stay behind after evaluation, and I will personally guide you in detail how to implement it," Masarara appointed. In fact, Masarara plans to establish a system similar to political commissar in later generations and strengthen the army's loyalty education to himself.

"Yes, Your Highness," the two immediately replied in unison. They were very grateful at this moment, and were both grateful for their value and excited about their salary. With these salary, the family's concerns about food and clothing due to the lack of main labor force were solved.

"Yinnuo", just as the two were still distracted, Masayoshi issued another order, "Immediately form a 20-person sergeant team with Daxi Kyuji, responsible for infiltrating into the powerful territories around the family, and responsible for inquiries. The salary of these sergeant players is 10 stones."

"Yes, Your Highness, I will definitely complete the task." Yinuo didn't expect to get such an important task when he participated in the assessment for the first time. He was also ups and downs in his heart, and he thought to himself, is the spring of Yinuo coming?

"Your Highness, forcibly demanding that the stakes change from half-day training to full-day training, and not being able to return home for most of a month will probably cause stakes dissatisfaction," said Daxi Guozhi at this time. "At present, most of the stakes in the territory have family members. With a salary of 4 stakes alone, even if the stakes of the family work hard, it is obvious that in the absence of the main labor force in the family, a household cannot guarantee the annual food needs of a household, so the stakes of the territory need to return to the fields to manage the farming."

Masara frowned and pondered. Indeed, according to the calculation that a person needs 1.8 stone a year, a family of four will need at least 7 stone a year. "Now is the most important period for the family to gain a foothold. All the salary of the stakes will be increased from the original 4 stone to 7 stones, but from the original half-standing stakes to the stakes will be changed. According to the military system of samurai, there are four days a month to return to his own farmland to manage farming." Masarara finally decided, "Except for samurai and stakes, the remaining males aged 15 to 40 in the territory need to participate in one day training organized by the village head in the middle of each month." According to Masarara's idea, the military strength of the territory is mainly divided into three levels. The first level is the standing stakes, the second level is the standing stakes, and the last level is the peasant soldiers who are reserved for troops. After all, once foreign enemies invade, all peasant soldiers need to be mobilized.

"Your Highness, this will greatly increase the grain burden of the territory," Dongxiang Heiji immediately opposed. Based on the salary of a young man of 7 stones, if he recruits 200 ounces, the military expenditure for a year will be 1,400 stones, which is equivalent to the current annual income of the territory. In addition, the salary of warriors and retainers, the expenses of the lord's mansion, and the daily expenditures of the territory's construction? The harvest of the territory this year is only about 1,600 stones. According to the average agricultural tax of the seven ministers and the three rural areas, the tax of the territory is only about 1,100 stones. Such income cannot even afford a small salary. This means that more than 4,000 stones placed in the warehouse (deducting the food consumed just arranged by Masayoshi) will continue to be consumed.

"Pingci, the salary this year has been allocated from the seized food. At present, it only needs to be allocated to increase the salary, which is about 700 stones." Zhengliang first corrected his mistake, "Of course, if the territory still has such a harvest next year, there will be problems. But as long as you go through this difficult period and wait until everything in the territory is on track, it will improve."

"Will it get better?" The retainers looked at each other. What else could they do except rely on the seized food to survive this period (but no matter how much food is, it will be consumed for a day).

"Haha, just expand the scope of the territory." Seeing the expressions of the retainers, Zhengliang didn't intend to keep it in a silence, and said with a smile on his face.

"What? Lord Lord is still ready to continue to expand?" The retainers were stunned.
Chapter completed!
