The New Arrangement of Ezo
Chapter 263 The New Arrangement of Ezo
For traditional Japanese samurai, knowledge and practice are their lifeblood.For a piece of knowledge and practice, not to mention brothers who have separated, even father and son will fight each other.
In the end, the Xiu family couldn't stand it anymore, and stopped the dispute between the two of them and made a decision, "You don't need to argue anymore, what Guan Bingwei said is right, he has more experience in military strategy than you.
Therefore, I decided to hand over the land of Quanxiang to you, and you will use Quanxiang as the base to occupy the city and continue to explore north.There are many swamps in the area east of the Chitose River, and it is difficult to open up wasteland.
But as far as I know, they have built three settlements in Wuhe in the northwest of Quanxiang, Yamada in the northeast and Matsuura in the southwest.Among them, Yamada and Matsuura are both run by the samurai of the same family. I allow you to control them both for your convenience. "
In Ezo, the division between cities and settlements is very clear, that is, the division is based on the number of residents.
A settlement with more than 1200 permanent residents, including the Ainu, can be called a city, while a settlement with less than 1200 people can only be called a colony.
In order to prevent wind and cold, and to prevent the invasion of wild beasts and savages, even the settlements with a small number of people are built with walls, and the lords or escrow warriors live in the enclosed courtyards in the center of the city.
Such a building structure rarely exists in Japan.
Japanese castles are similar to European castles, and are separated from the villages under the castle. They usually use the structure that surrounds the castle town as the general structure.
The construction method of the general structure is usually to use the soil excavated from the outer trenches to build a 2-meter-long earth mound, on which a screen board or a wooden wall directly made of tree branches is used as a shelter.
The definition of this simple city wall in China is roughly equivalent to the semi-permanent outer wall of the camp built when the two armies confronted each other during marching and fighting.But such a building, which is definitely not a city wall in China, has become an extremely rare city defense structure in Japan.
Is it because the way the Japanese dodo-style building conflicts with its nature?Obviously not.
In fact, there have been Chinese-style city walls in Japan in history. According to the latest archaeological discoveries, the Heian-kyo in Nara was built by the city wall. According to speculation, it should be about 13 meters long.
Even the Jixuan City built on the mountain and the Ono City built on the seaside have a circle of rammed earth walls around them, especially the Jixuan City, the walls are built around the mountain, and the mountain platform can form an efficient defensive crossfire.
The reason why this kind of city wall was abandoned later is simply poverty and chaos.
The imperial court as the center cannot build city walls because the place is too chaotic, and the local tyrants cannot build city walls because they are too poor. Local tyrants living in the mountains can dig mountains into fortresses for a lifetime without worrying about the central government attacking them, while local tyrants living on flat ground can only pile up. Build a layer of soil to build their own home on the artificial hill, the so-called Pingcheng.
However, the Japanese did not give up the idea of building in the main structure. When the power of the daimyo expanded to a certain extent, its core stronghold would form a certain ring-gathering effect.
The residents of the castle town have more economic value than the natives in the countryside, so it is necessary to protect the residents of the castle town.Therefore, regardless of the Xiaotianyuan City, Junfu City and other cities, there are rammed earth structures, but the strength of the structures varies according to the strength of each family.
But without exception, these cities are all regional central cities, and in Ezo, settlements with hundreds of people will be built by local people several times. This kind of city wall is not exaggerated in winter. I'm sorry, it's on par with the Stone City.
Hearing that Hideka bowed slightly to Ukita Sokatsu who had been arranged by him, expressing his acceptance of the appointment, the only one who was not arranged in the end was Ukita Hidei.
"Kitami is indeed inferior to Ishikari and Hidaka, but Kitami's development is the easiest, because the local Ainu population is the smallest, and the difficulties required are relatively easy.
As far as I know, there is only one settlement in Kitami, so I will tell you to manage Fumei City.I know that your family background is not rich, and you are the least active. (3000 stone)
I will give you Jijimoto samurai to go with you. In addition, you can also borrow some samurai from Ukita Dazaiden. It should not be difficult to think about it. "
Ukita Kane is one of the few samurai in the family who knows that Hideo is developing Ezo.
As a core member of the Yuxi family, Xiujia has great trust in Quanjia. Xiuyi borrowed someone from him with her own order. Xiujia believed that he would know the stakes, and selected some warriors who were strict and cautious. Give it to Xiuyi to act.
After distributing the three people's spheres of influence, Xiujia took out three booklets from the back and handed them to them. It was the "Ezo Raiders Handbook" that Xiujia had written for Xuanzhu.
"After you go back, read it carefully and understand the mystery. You still have to return it to me before you leave. When you arrive at the Ezo Xuanzhu City, the Xuanzhu Master will teach you a lesson or two, so that you can understand how to effectively and quickly develop the Ezo region. Territory, how to coexist with the local Ainu people.”
"The preferential treatment I give you is no different from that of others. All the territories you open up will be counted in your meritorious service. When the land is established and divided into feudal states, 7% of the opened up territories will be included in your knowledge and action. You only need to hand in 3%. Can.
The team of retainers prepared after returning must be smart and capable, and not too bloated.Everyone remember to bring more iron cannons and ammunition, which are very useful when you arrive in Ezo. "
"The number of Japanese people I migrate to Ezo every year is not large, so you must make good use of the local Ainu population so that they can fully integrate with us and work for our family.
Of course, there will still be immigrants in the Ezo region, but they are all Koreans, and they will also be the main people farming in your territory.There may be some language barriers with you, so after you go back, you recruit some people who can speak Korean and bring them to the team. "
Xiujia carefully recalled what he had to explain, and after confirming that it was correct, he said to the three of them, "If you have any questions, let's bring them up now."
It was the first time for the three of them to really understand Ezo, and they were still ignorant of the arrangement of the Xiu family. In the end, the veteran Jiang Yuan asked the Xiu family for the first time, "It seems that settlements have been developed in the Ezo area, and food has been planted." , Then may I ask if we have to prepare large-scale materials such as grain seeds by ourselves?"
"I still need to bring some. I will order someone to prepare thousands of stones of grain for you to press the ship. When you are questioned at the port, you only need to say that you are a grain merchant who sells grain to the north. This will prevent you from being suspected.
But these grains are not seeds. Ezo is located in the northernmost part of the country, and the climate is cold. There is only half a year of chemical cultivation. The real cultivation time is only more than 4 months. It is too late to grow rice. They cultivate cold-resistant wheat locally, which is also the local main food.
When you arrive in Ezo, someone will distribute the wheat seeds to you. As for the rice, you are asked to bring it to the samurai people in Ezo to satisfy their hunger. You must know that rice is a rare commodity in the local area. "
After answering this question, Xiujia looked at the three of them and said, "Any more questions?"
"Can you take the female family members with you? After all, as His Highness said, Ezo is too far away from Bizen. I'm afraid I won't see you once a year." Ukita Hidei who spoke, he was newly married for 2 years and his son was born. , I really can't let go of my family.
"After the development situation in Ezo is stable, you are allowed to bring the family members who were strangled in Ezo to reunite, but not now.
In fact, you don’t have to worry when you arrive in Ezo. You are all city lords, and some of them are local Ainu women, so you should be afraid that your things will not be enough. "
"Eh~hahahahahaha"
When men talk about women, it is always the happiest topic. After realizing what Xiujia said, all three of them laughed heartily.
When the three of Xiuyi heard that Xiujia was obviously a 13-year-old virgin, but she was joking with them here, they all laughed, and even made dirty jokes with each other.
After this question, the three of them didn't ask any more questions, so the Xiu family ended the meeting, "Don't go back to participate in the banquet, go directly to the city and go back to the city for reference and get ready. We will be leaving next month at the latest."
"Yes, I will leave." Waiting for Wanxiu's family to arrange orders, the three said to the Xiu's family to leave.
Just when the three of them were about to get up and leave, Xiu's family stopped Ukita Hidei, "Xiu Bing, wait a moment."
The three of them exchanged glances. Although they were full of curiosity about Xiuyi being stopped by the Xiu family alone, the other two resigned and left. Only Xiujia and Xiuyi were left in the hall.
Before Hideka opened his mouth, he turned his head to look at Iemitsu and others who were waiting on the side, and said, "Kenjiro, go outside to watch the wind, and ask the attendants to leave this room for 15 steps to wait. Changyoshimaru, you also go out first, there are people in the hall. Just a half-guard."
The two left with their lives, and soon the sound of footsteps was heard around them.
The Xiu family didn't speak to Ukita Hidei until the surroundings became quiet again, "Do you know why I put you in Kitami?"
Xiuyi had long been a little curious by the Xiu family's mysterious gesture, and now she was a little confused when asked about it by the Xiu family, and said, "I don't know, please show me the hall master."
Xiujia spread out the map again, rubbed his fingers back and forth on the Zaobie River not far from Fumei City, and said, "This river is called Zaobie River, and it is an extremely common small stream, not even comparable to the Xiangdong River in Sanuki. Sichuan."
Kotogawa is a river on the west side of Hideka Sanuki Fengshan Castle. The water flow is very small, only waist-deep.
"But there is something here that has great economic value." Xiujia said, paused here, and spread out his hands to show Xiuyi, "It's this thing, Jinsha."
The gold sand in Xiujia's hand shone brightly under the sunlight, constantly stimulating Ukita Xiuyi's eyes. Although the light was a little bit like this, Xiuyi still stared intently at the small handful of gold sand in Xiujia's hand until Xiujia His hands were closed again, and the gold was covered in it.
"These gold sands are produced in the Zaobie River, so I assert that there must be a gold mountain in the upper reaches of the Zaobie River, and the reserves are not small. Don't you wonder why I left Ishikari and Shichuan without developing it, and went to the north to see the distance? Develop a new finality point?"
"Actually, His Highness did feel that something was wrong when he first interpreted it. Now that I think about it, it must be because of the gold." Xiuyi said after sorting out her thoughts.
"That's right, the matter of gold is related to the lifeblood of my Uki family, and there is absolutely no room for loss. I placed you in Kitami because you are calmer than Kanbei, and you will not miss the business because of the Ainu affairs.
After arriving at Fumei City, I will transport most of the Japanese people and Koreans to you to pan for gold.Kitami where you are located is different from other neighboring countries and treats the Ainu and us as differently as possible.
First of all, the Ainu are tall and not suitable for mining, so it is useless to let them come to Hongzhiwu.
Second, Kitami is the northernmost point of Ezo. The Ainu people here have never seen the world, and they are still using stone weapons. They cannot bring iron tools to their tribe. This will make our future strategies difficult. Facing difficulties. "
"So your core task when you arrive in Kitami is not to open up new settlements and develop fields, but to find the Konomai Mine as soon as possible and organize mining.
Regarding the matter of the gold mine, apart from the Rangers who had been sent to Kitami, only Xuanzhu and the Seto family knew about the matter in Ezo, and no one else could communicate with it.
This matter is even more confidential than the development of Ezo.
If you encounter any difficulties, communicate directly with Xuanzhu, including the organization and transportation of miners, and he will help you organize them.You just have to mine the gold as fast as possible for me.
After the gold is mined, it will be smelted into gold on the spot, and you are allowed to keep 2% in Kitami for your own use, 3% to be used by the Seto family for business, and [-]% to be shipped back to Okayama. "
"Yes, I understand." Xiuyi looked at Xiujia's eyes, and deeply felt the seriousness of Xiujia. He also understood that the matter of Hongzhiwu Gold Mine was extremely important, and even guessed that this might be the reason why Xiujia opened up Ezo s reason.
Seeing that Xiuyi had confirmed her order, Xiujia also nodded, asked him to open his palm, poured the small handful of gold sand into his hand and said, "This handful of gold sand is for you. When you arrive in Beijian, you can return it to me." There is a hundred times, a thousand times the gold waiting for you, and I am also waiting for the news of your victory."
At this point, the Xiu family's arrangement with Eizo was truly over. Before Xiu Yi left, the Xiu family reminded again, "You should know that the matter of Hong Zhi Wu's gold mine must be kept secret. If the officers and soldiers ask you at that time, You know how to answer."
"I know, just say that His Highness kept me here to explain my assignment to Beijian."
Xiuyi's answer surprised the Xiu family, but after thinking about it, they realized that Xiuyi was a real ancient spirit elite. Once this answer was told to Futian Zongsheng, this brother would definitely feel that he was ashamed of his younger brother and owed him The younger brother is a favor.
Xiuyi is pulling her tiger skin to plot against her brother~
Xiujia smiled, shook his head helplessly, as acquiescing to his answer, and sent him away, "Let's go, that's all for today."
Ukita Hidei was ordered to get up and leave, and until he left the house, Samukawa Iemitsu and Nagayoshimaru dared not approach him.
