Wanli 1592

Chapter 253

Since sending the battle report back, Xiao Ruxun has been staying in the Ming army camp in Shi Jian to deal with the future stationing of the Ming army.

According to the scheduled plan, Xiao Ruxun will leave 1 people stationed in Iwami, Oki Island and Sado Island. As a buffer, Xiao Ruxun only arranged for 1000 to 2000 people to be stationed on the island at most, and because Sado Island had gold mountains, it needed to arrange a large number of captives to mine, so it needed about [-] troops to maintain stability.

The Iwami area not only needs to mine but also to be stationed in case of accidents, so a maximum of about [-] troops are needed to garrison, manage the captives, and manage the mining.

However, even so, Xiao Ruxun felt that these troops were not enough. His original idea was 2 people, but considering the homesickness of the sergeants and the high cost of supply transportation, Xiao Ruxun still chose the minimum of 1 people. These things can be obtained by local farming in Japan, but gunpowder, matchlock, muskets, artillery, etc. have to be transported from the Ming Dynasty. If there are too many people, the burden on the court will be heavy, and the resistance will not be small.

Xiao Ruxun has traveled all over the Iwami Silver Mountain these days, seeing hundreds of large and small mines, and knows that this silver mountain has already been dug up by the Japanese before, and the remaining mine production is not sure if it is enough for 50 Nian fiercely dug, anyway, Xiao Ruxun didn't intend to stop, digging to death, and didn't intend to cherish manpower and material resources, anyway, he used all Japanese things, and used them directly to death.

After the war, the whole Ishijian can collect about 12 young and middle-aged people, and [-] old and weak women and children. This is the approximate number calculated by the Ming army documents who have traveled all over Ishijian these days. Xiao Ruxun waved his hand, All [-] young and strong were sent to various mines to start mining. The women gathered to wash, cook and sew clothes for the Ming army.

Of course, if the labor force of these people is squeezed in this way, and the Ming army uses violence to drive them to do things, these people will inevitably rebel. The general plan of the day.

The Ming army only arranged a small number of soldiers and horses to monitor the various construction sites and fields. The people who were mainly responsible for driving the Japanese to do things were also Japanese, and they were Japanese traitors carefully selected by Xiao Ruxun. There were more than 300 Japanese traitors in total, and the leader was A Japanese with no surname named Goro.

This man has been an honest farmer for generations. When it was his turn, Japan went to war against North Korea. He was conscripted into the army and went to North Korea, but he did not land in North Korea. He stayed on Tsushima Island and was captured by the Ming army on Tsushima Island. Then he surrendered to the Ming army, and because he was familiar with Shi Jian's road, he became a glorious leader.

After the Shi Jian war subsided, when Xiao Ruxun was selecting the person in charge of the puppet army, Goro entered his field of vision, so he summoned Goro and other 16 hardcore Japanese traitors, and commended them with his own hands. They were rewarded with military caps and military trousers of the Ming army.

As a result, they became honorably "our own people" who wore the same trousers with the Ming army. From then on, this group of people became more energetic and efficient, driving their compatriots to be even more ruthless than the Ming army!

Holding a whip in his hand and a Ming army saber on his waist, these 300 people were divided into ten groups and wandered around various construction sites. Except for the Ming army soldiers who were in charge of guarding, they were mainly responsible for maintaining order. Moreover, Xiao Ruxun also told the guarding soldiers of the Ming army not to beat up those Japanese, and not to curse at them, just watch them, and these Japanese traitors will help them do the rest.

At the beginning, the generals of the Ming Army didn't quite understand Xiao Ruxun's intentions, until one day, when Li Rusong was taking a break, he went to inspect the mine on a whim. Then, a short man wearing a Ming army cap and Ming army trousers rushed out of the mine, ran up to Li Rusong and kowtowed, then nodded and bowed to welcome Li Rusong in flatteringly.

Before entering the mine, Li Rusong heard the sound of ghosts crying and wolves and whips whipping. Li Rusong was still very puzzled and didn't know what happened. He went in and took a look. A man is waving a whip and beating a group of Japanese.

Li Rusong was dumbfounded. He pointed to the Japanese who were tied up in a row, hung up and beaten, and asked the chief of the Ming army who was in charge of the mine. When managing the Japanese, they don't intervene, they don't beat or scold, they just watch from the sidelines, and then all the things are really done by the Japanese, and they do it much more thoroughly than the Ming army.

Li Rusong looked at Goro's obsequious smiling face, and those who were swearing and waving their whips, and seeing his compatriots bruised and battered with abnormal smiles on their faces, Li Rusong seemed to understand something.

After he went back, he told about this matter in the army, and after that, generals of the Ming army continued to "inspect" these mines. After witnessing these scenes with their own eyes, one or two admired Xiao Ruxun. —These Japanese are really ruthless. They are even more ruthless when dealing with their own people than the Ming army. Sometimes the ruthless Ming army can't stand it. The Ming army officers who are in charge of monitoring the mines often take action to stop those people's excessive behavior.

That's it.

"Once they lose their way of retreat and sell their soul and dignity, they have no choice. In order not to be abandoned by their master, even their own family members, sometimes they can do it. They are more ruthless than the enemy when dealing with their own people. is the basic characteristic of a traitor.

This is not the idea of ​​landlords and rich people domineering, but a completely sick way of thinking. They know that only by doing so can they not be abandoned. In order not to be abandoned, they can only do more and more ruthlessly, because they know that once they are If the masters abandon them, they will die without a place to bury them. "

"But if we do this, will it harm the harmony of heaven?"

Yuan Huang also went to see the hell-like scene, and escaped with an uncomfortable expression on his face: "If you squeeze those Japanese people like this, they probably won't work honestly. Let's..."

After all, Yuan Huang is old, and he has a kind heart, but Xiao Ruxun's heart is as hard as iron, and he doesn't care at all.

"It's not us who did it, but the Japanese traitors. We are the arbitrators, not the violent ones. Soon, those Japanese will understand this. I have more ways to make those Japanese divert their hatred. They will definitely not think of doing something against Daming, absolutely!"

Yuan Huang looked at Xiao Ruxun, but he didn't know what it was like in his heart.
