For example, Kawasaki Kengan, who is still hunting down, if he escaped, he was shuttled by the postman of the shogunate. In the village where he hides, there are policemen from the shogunate. Then he fled out of Edo, and the possibility of escaping from the sky will be greatly reduced.

It was because he hid in Shibuya and Meguro on the outskirts of Edo, where the shogunate's ruling power began to weaken, and he could not fully grasp the information, which gave him the opportunity to run away.

Strengthening the grassroots is urgent!

"And I have arranged the staff." Matsudaira Qixuan patted Chuemon's hand, his eyes bright.

"Where?" Chuyouemon thought that Matsudaira Qixuan had such an idea, and it would take a long time to implement it, but what he never expected was that he even helped the shogunate find a good one. .

"It's right in front of you! Chuanxi soldiers who have not rebelled before the age of 20 are excellent!" Songping Qixuan gave an answer.

An unexpected answer!

Previously, the Chuanxiu team launched a large-scale mutiny, involving more than 3,000 people. Except for a few witnesses, all the masterminds were cut off, and all the accomplices were exiled to the north. But there were still nearly a thousand people who did not participate in the incident at that time, or were injured and sick, and were treated in the hospital. Either stick to their original intentions, be loyal to the shogunate, and refuse to participate in the mutiny.

According to Naobi Ii and the opinions of many shogunates before, these remaining people also need to retire and let them get out. Don't contaminate the training team who are all samurai and Miao swordsmen who are qualified to be soldiers.

You guys should have an impression of this.

However, Naobi Ii, who came to deal with this matter, was assassinated and died. Second, the people who made a big fuss about this matter at that time were mainly to attack Naobi Ii, and this incited public opinion, not really worrying about the country. Worry about the people or something.

So one after another, those wounded soldiers who had been cured and those who did not participate in the mutiny were placed in the barracks between Yokohama and Edo, waiting to be disbanded.

But since they are loyal to the shogunate, and they have also experienced actual combat and mastered the killing skills, is it inappropriate to throw them home without giving them a livelihood?

Now they are loyal to the shogunate. When the severance payment is over and their lives are difficult, will they change?

At the beginning, Chuemon also considered this matter, but it has been dragged all the way to this day, but he has forgotten such a thing. Now that Songping Qixuan mentioned it, it was very reasonable.

Can the lame be a police officer? Even if you are not lame, does the shogunate count on you, a small police officer, to prevent any major chaos? Impossible, all the shogunate needed was a tentacle to re-enter the countryside.

With such a person in the village, the shogunate will no longer be smeared in the village in the future!

More importantly, raise these people at the price of five taels of gold or eight taels of gold a year. With an iron rice bowl, it is difficult for them to change their position of loyalty to the shogunate. The shogunate does not need to spend much money, and can stabilize such a team, why not do it.

"In addition, the earliest veterans should also be retired." Songping Qixuan continued.

More than ten years ago, the shogunate began to prepare and train new troops. At that time, young people from seventeen to eighteen to twenty-five were required. Anyway, they are strong young men, and it is best to be a soldier. But in the past ten years, some people have already passed 40 years old, or will be 40 years old.

There is no other meaning, although the veteran's combat skills may be very skilled, but in terms of physical strength and reaction ability, it should be no better than a twenty-year-old boy.

Following this line of thinking, Songping Qixuan planned to abolish the veterans over forty years old in the army and make them retire. In the same way, these people have been soldiers for more than ten years, and I am afraid they will no longer be able to farm. In order to settle them, instead of making them become unstable factors when they return to their hometowns, it is better to make up the police in the village.

It can not only reflect the kindness of Marshal Songping Qi Xuan and caring for the soldiers, but also let the soldiers of the training team know that the shogunate stands with them. As long as they are armed to defend the shogunate, the shogunate will control them to the death of old age.

Even if you have old arms and legs, and you are over forty, you can no longer carry a gun for the general. The general still finds you a job as a police officer, and you get a salary every year, so that you can eat enough and be decent.

Isn't it nice!

The soldiers of the training team can also continue to be replaced, and the veterans who have been dismissed also have a place to go. Connecting up and down, without any obstruction, is very convenient.

Simple calculation, there are at least 2,000 people in the team, which can be converted into military police immediately. Although there is no way to have one police officer in one village, there is no problem in relocating one person in ten villages and eight villages.

In the future, when there is enough staff, we can expand and increase it. Anyway, the army will continue to retire personnel, and some will be replenished.

Or to be more direct, didn't the shogunate have a lot of "Sanyi servants" who were about to starve to death, and they directly added five or two stipends a year and sent them to the countryside to work as police officers.

To put it a little deeper, if there is a war in the future, right? These veterans who are still in the shogunate's establishment can all return to the team with a whistle. It's no better than spreading them all out and leaving them in unknown places.

They are a little older, but they are still a lot stronger than weak chickens who are powerless, or ordinary people who are afraid even listening to gunshots. If he insisted on giving him a name, he was also a militia reserve soldier.

See if Songping Qixuan is right or not, if the idea is feasible. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

If you dismiss people or retire, they will become a factor of social instability when they return to their hometowns. It is better to have them stay in the establishment of the shogunate in another way.

Good for the shogunate, and a way out for them!

"This proposal is very good, very good!" Chuemon immediately agreed, Matsudaira Qi Xuan thought of an idea.

He, the head of the shogunate, didn't do it in vain. After more than ten years of old and middle school, at least he has his own experience in managing the mess of the shogunate. And he was able to think of a way to do things according to the actual situation of the shogunate.

Let's talk about it, it's much stronger than some of the previous policies that worked behind closed doors, or slapped the forehead, and thought that it was a one-off policy.

This alone has solved the two major issues of strengthening the grassroots and retiring veterans for the shogunate. Not only is it in line with Chuemon's intentions, but it can also ensure the maintenance of the capital of the shogunate, that is, the stability of the training team.

"Shangqi is so approved, then it can be implemented slowly." When Songping Qixuan came to power, he also wanted to burn three fires, and this first fire was burned first.
