Warring States Eagle

The people are easy to get along with, as long as you let them see the benefits, they will firmly follow your footsteps no matter what decisions you make in the future.

In Japan, houses with brick and tile structures are generally only seen in temples (the temples are mostly brick and tile structures, and there is a lot of space inside, and the wooden floors of the monks’ rooms are all suspended buildings away from the ground. The rooms of the abbot and other eminent monks are even more It is covered with tatami mats), but now there are a large number of houses with brick and tile structures scattered around Nogayama in Matsuura County, Hizen Country, Kyushu, which is indeed rare in Wa Country, which is dominated by mud houses and wooden houses.

After nearly ten years of development, this area has also become the wealthiest area in the Luo family's territory (because it benefited early, it naturally developed faster than other areas), so it is also the first to build a more solid and beautiful house. Area of ​​brick houses.

And it is precisely because of the benefits of seeing a lot in previous attempts, so this is also the place where the new measures of Luo's family business are the smoothest.So on the way forward, Zheng Liang saw not only the magic melons, corn and other crops, but also two other new businesses that were about to be carried out in the territory.

One is the pigsty.Next to the houses of some local residents, Zheng Liang found some pigpens.In other words, these people are already raising pigs.These pigs naturally came from the Luo family's slave farm at the foot of Yegao Mountain.

When Luo's family made a fortune, it was Zheng Liang who led some of the leaders into the forest and took away a litter of wild boars that had been harassing the village's fields for a long time. He killed the big wild boar and harvested several small wild boars at the same time.Zheng Liang kept these young wild boars in the pigsty of the farm at that time.Since then, some leaders have successively captured wild boars and put them in this pigsty (at that time, due to cultural and food and clothing reasons, no leaders were willing to raise these small wild boars alone). After nearly ten years of development.This pigsty has grown into a pig farm with more than 150 pigs.

And those piglets born one after another were also domesticated into domestic pigs, and then distributed to slave farms throughout the territory to establish new pig farms.And some of the piglets were sold to them at the request of the local residents of Yegaoshan to be raised as domestic pigs.

These domestic pigs are treasures, and besides waiting for these piglets to grow up, they can be sold back to the cabinet of the Luo family, the most important thing is.The manure of these pigs can be used as fertilizer to increase the fertility of the fields.It can be said to kill two birds with one stone, so it is very popular among the people.

In addition to the pigsty, Zheng Liang also saw vegetable gardens and mulberry trees on the foundations of some fish ponds.This is the mulberry fishpond planting method that has been practiced in the slave farm of the Luo family. Unexpectedly, the people here have already started to imitate the planting. [

Especially mulberry.At present, in the territory of the Luo family, only the textile workshops near Anyue Mountain City and the slave farms around the territory are growing this crop.As for other places, the popularization of mulberry trees has not yet started due to fear that the local people will not be able to accept this new crop for a while and lack of planting technology, but the local people here have become the first to eat crabs.

The team went all the way, and soon arrived outside Nogo Town under Noko Mountain.As the former daimyo residence of the Luo family and the place where the Luo family originated, the level of prosperity here is definitely not inferior to the castle town of Kishidake Mountain Castle.

Before Masara moved his residence to Kishigatake Mountain Castle.The remodeling has already started here.After the renovation, the town was divided into two by a marching avenue running from north to south, with commercial streets on the west and residential buildings and some official institutions of the Luo family on the east.

Because this is the distribution center for the Luo family's snow salt business, and it is also the most prosperous area in the country before the Luo family, so in the commercial street, Zheng Liang saw various commercial houses such as Shenya and Luo's house.Dozens of commercial houses independently opened by the local residents were even found.Being able to gather such a large number of commercial houses in one place is already the place where Zhengliang has seen the most commercial houses since his inspection.

On the side of the commercial street, Zheng Liang also saw a market with an area of ​​more than ten acres.At this time, the market was crowded with people, and a large number of citizens who had heard about the Luo family's name and came to inspect it poured out one after another and came to watch.Seeing the heels rubbing shoulders in the crowd, Masara felt as if he was visiting Sakaimachi.

On the east side of the town, there are residential houses and some official institutions of the Luo family.There are several institutions that are well-known in the territory of the Luo family and attract a large number of people from all over the world to visit here every year.

The recruiting office is a standing institution for the Luo family to recruit and reserve soldiers.Almost every day, citizens (including ronin samurai) come to sign up, and the recruitment office is responsible for registering the information of the registered subjects and conducting corresponding tests.The content of the test is mainly the basic movements of daily training of peasants and soldiers, such as lifting stones, dancing with knives and guns, archery, long-distance running, and queue drills (the law of the Luo family’s territory stipulates that each town or village is responsible for the training of peasants, soldiers and boy scouts) There should be at least four days a month for intensive training of peasant soldiers and boy scouts. These peasant soldiers and boy scouts can be said to be the lowest-level source of soldiers in the Luo family, while the soldiers recruited by recruiting are the second-tier Luo family They will receive free training with food and lodging on a regular basis. Whenever the Luo family enters the stage of war mobilization, these reserves will be first recruited to fight. The third tier of soldiers are standing soldiers).

Although there are many items in the test, basically only one item among the leaders who participated in the test is outstanding.will be hired.Then those who are selected will be concentrated in the new barracks in the wild mountains and forests for training.

There are dozens of recruiting stations similar to this in the Luo family's territory of Hizen, Chikugo, and Higo. They send a large number of qualified reserve soldiers to the Luo family's military force every year.In the next step, Masarai plans to establish such institutions in Bungo and Chikuzen.

Similar to the function of the recruitment office, there is also the execution office in the town.These offices are specially used to recruit talents with special skills in occupations such as civil affairs, farming, and craftsmen.After passing the special test, the information of these talents will be registered, and then those talents with expertise in civil affairs and agriculture will be sent to some small villages to try out their talents.During the trial period, there are special personnel to track the trial situation of these talents.After the probationary period is over, the Cabinet will decide whether to stay or not based on the person's performance.as the last remaining ones.They are still sent to serve at the grassroots level in various places, but they will regularly go to the training organized by the cabinet to strengthen their expertise.

Although there are still many imperfections in this process, such a move is already the first of its kind in this era.It is also through this method that a large number of grassroots personnel have been accumulated for the Luo family.These people will gradually replace the role of the lords and noble families.It slowly penetrated into various places of the Luo family, forming the exclusive management network of the Luo family.

The remaining craftsmen will be handed over to the iron workshop and wood workshop on Yegao Mountain for further arrangements.

The canyon on Yegao Mountain that used to be Zhengliang's residence has now become the headquarters of the iron and wood workshops.There are a large number of craftsmen and their families living in it.However, Zhengliang's mansion is still preserved, and there has always been a special person in charge of taking care of it.In his free time, Zheng Liang would also bring his wives, concubines and children here to relax.

For these craftsmen recruited from the enforcement office, as the general workshop in charge of all folk iron workshops and wood workshops in the Luo family's territory, there is also a strict trial process.In short, if it weren't for the direct promotion of Zhengliang.The newly recruited craftsmen have to work at the outskirts of the main workshop for at least three years before they can get in touch with some secret techniques of the Luo family.

In the forest near the main workshop, there is currently the only recruit training camp for Luo's family.This recruit training camp is mainly responsible for training the reserve recruits that the Luo family always has.It is precisely because of such an important task that the hundreds of instructors in it are all standing troops who have retired from the standing army for various reasons. [

As a reserve of the Luo family.They are enjoying the free training treatment of the Luo family on a regular basis, as well as the treatment of their family members who have upgraded their status because they become reserve soldiers (the Luo family law stipulates that after becoming a military force of the Luo family, the status level of their family members will also increase. Increase. Will enjoy lower taxes and military pensions, etc.), but also need to pay the following price:

One is, after receiving the mobilization order from the Luo family, they must rush to the assembly point within the stipulated time limit to assemble, and then go out with the army (these are the main sources of farmers and soldiers for the Luo family every time they fight).

The second is to regularly participate in at least two territorial border guard missions and other missions with the training camp instructor as the chief general every year.This is also the main source of peasants and soldiers stationed in various standing teams.

The third is to spend at least half a month every month participating in the training of the boot camp.

Compared with the general peasants and soldiers who are only led by the head of the village to train for four days a month.The physical fitness of these reserve farmers and soldiers is higher, the training time is longer (basically in a half-time state), and the quality of training is higher.They are also the main source of soldiers for the Luo family to fight and an important source of soldiers to supplement the battle losses of various teams.In the future, after the official opening of the Roche Academy in Hizen Country, this recruit training camp will also become a branch of the Roche Academy Military Academy.

Now that there is a full-time training camp for the reserve forces, Zheng Liang plans to build another training camp for the reserve forces of the Navy.The location has also been decided, which is in Karatsu Bay.

At present, in the Luo family's navy, the sailors and general farmers and soldiers are temporarily recruited from the fishermen along the coast.Although these fishermen will also conduct water and land training for four days a month under the leadership of the village head, their combat power is still uneven, and not all of them may be credible.After all, the navy is different from the army.Once the ships are carefully controlled by the enemy during the war, basically at least one warship will be lost, which will cause greater losses.That's why Zheng Liang came up with the idea of ​​setting up a training camp for naval recruits.

Of course, here in Ye Gaoshan, except for the boot camp.There is also a horse training camp.That is currently the only ranch owned by Luo's family.

The ranch is located in the wooded area between the Nodaka Mountains and the Jodaka Mountains.In that forest, there is a lake formed by the collection of forest streams, and the lake is surrounded by a flat grassland.It used to be the habitat of a herd of wild horses, but after being discovered by the Roche family, they transformed it into a pasture.Since then, the horses captured and purchased by the Luo family from various places will be gathered here.

After screening these horses, some of the horses suitable for war horses will continue to be trained until they become qualified war horses.They will serve as mounts for the standing cavalry of the Roche family.Since it is the precious war horse of the Luo family, the treatment is naturally not bad.The daily food used for them is the best feed.Even the stables where they live have the best environment, and they are taken care of by special personnel.

The other part of the horses that are not suitable as war horses will be domesticated into draft horses responsible for transporting supplies and communication horses for messengers and scouts to ride.For reasons of saving materials, their treatment is relatively poor, but at least they will be able to eat enough.After all, every horse is a precious resource to the Luo family.
