Chapter 343 Arrangement of surrendering troops
Although Qu Mao gave Xuande enough time to deal with the resettlement of prisoners of war for the second batch of invasion fleets of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance at the southernmost tip of the outlying island, but in fact Qu Mao also knew very well that there were a total of 18,000 surrendered Anti-Yi Villagers. It is a very large project to properly handle the naval fighters of the alliance's second invasion fleet.
In the temporary camp where the landing forces of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance confronted each other in the territory of Yi Village, Qu Mao called together several major heroes to discuss the matter overnight.
Yi Village's territorial navy has trained several batches of soldiers, and the size of the navy is now around 15,000.
But with the addition of the naval hero Shanks Reid, Sylvia Ocean reset the size of the naval warships to 14 medium-sized warships, 60 small warships, and a total of 74 warships.
After the second batch of invasion fleets of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance finally surrendered, they directly obtained 4 medium-sized warships and 26 small-scale warships. These 30 warships can be directly installed in the navy, so Sylvia Ocean is basically There is no shortage of warships.
This plan means that the number of naval fighters needs to reach 26,400. There are no problems with warships, but there is still a shortfall of more than 10,000 naval fighters.
Combining the warships salvaged from the bottom of the sea when Sylvia Ocean expanded his war results, although all of them are currently being repaired in the naval port or shipyard, this number of warships will push the total number of warships in the territory of Yi Village to more than 100 anytime and anywhere.
Among the existing 15,000 naval fighters, nearly 3,000 were recruited from the leaders of the second batch of invasion fleet of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance, and 4,000 were directly recruited from the previous 8,000 prisoners of war. In the middle, there was no process of removing the military post.
In fact, at least 5,000 of the original 8,500 old navy soldiers were recruited from the leaders of the first invasion fleet of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance.
During the negotiations, one of the conditions put forward by the heroes of the second batch of invasion fleets of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance was to keep the military positions of these naval fighters.
Qu Mao gave an overview of the situation, and then said to Sylvia Ocean: "Sylvia, the hero who surrendered has mentioned this request. I think that if you want to keep the status of surrender as a prisoner of war, it can only be navy too.
There is still a shortfall of 11,000 personnel in the navy. It is reasonable to say that 11,000 soldiers can be absorbed, but considering the composition of your navy and safety, I suggest that this ratio should be reduced. "
Zhao Pan said: "My lord, the army can still solve the quota of 500 soldiers, but the navy has 26,400, the army has 5,000, a total of 31,400 soldiers, even if we eat all the 18,000 people, we only have 62,000 people, soldiers More than half of it."
Su Yan said: "My lord, of the 18,000 new prisoners of war, at least 10,000 must be converted into free citizens..."
Zhao Pan interrupted: "Lord Su Yan, you are clear about the situation of the territory of Yi Village. We only have more than 30 villages in total. This is the number of villages planned according to the 20,000 population limit. Counting the upgrades of Yi Village and Yi Village, As well as the Di Village and Di Gang that are to be built now, they will arrange 30,000 local residents.
Therefore, maintaining more fighter status is in line with our needs to resettle the citizens. "
Kong Ming waved his goose feather fan and murmured: "In order to settle the 10,000 free names that Lord Su Yan said, at least 20 new villages must be built. Is it enough?"
Sylvia Ocean said: "My lord, my subordinates will follow your orders, and all of them will be assigned to the navy. The navy can also find a way to subdue these surrendered soldiers. At most, they need a little more senior naval soldiers. "
Qu Mao said: "Okay, the navy's 6 epic heroes, let's eat more than 7,000 surrendered soldiers step by step, the army will eat 500 surrendered soldiers, and the rest will be turned into free citizens, and unified arrangements will be made for those who are on duty for construction or production. The work task persists for three months, and we will talk about it later.
We were able to go out for trade three times in three months, and we were able to get almost 5,000 people back. Although the number is not large, the difference can always offset the influence of a soldier leader. "
Kong Ming said: "My lord, as you said, the navy has six epic-level naval heroes, and a few surrendered troops can naturally be suppressed. The remaining naval soldiers in the navy can be filled by surrendered troops. The subordinates feel that there is no problem. "
Sylvia Ocean said: "That's right, Master Kong Ming is right. My subordinates think that it is no problem to convert them all to the navy. It is nothing more than equipping a few more warships. Anyway, we have plenty of warships."
Qu Mao was almost tempted. After all, it goes without saying that the six heroes of the navy are all epic-level aptitudes. At the same time, they also have two loyal heroes, Sylvia Ocean and Fur Swamp, but Qu Mao still rolled his eyes at Kong Ming and said, "Sylvia, we still have to sell some warships in exchange for the gold coins necessary for the development of Yi Village's territory."
Kong Ming waved his goose feather fan, pretending not to say anything.
Zhao Pan said: "My lord, there is no problem at all for the army to eat 500 surrendered soldiers.
Qu Mao waved his hand and said, "This is not a big problem, you can arrange it yourself.
Sylvia, if you want to eat 7,000 soldiers, what are you going to do? "
Sylvia Ocean thought for a while, and said, "My lord, Lord Shanks Reid has just joined the navy, and his rank is still low. Therefore, the navy must keep the traditional hunting repertoire.
As for the others, the subordinates are going to directly pull on the warship and take it directly to the sea for a long time of fishing activities. After a while, there is a high probability that the loyalty and loyalty will increase faster.
I just hope that the third batch of invasion fleets of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance will not come so fast, and at least give us three months to digest this batch of surrendered soldiers, prisoners of war, and surrendered leaders.
Although the Anti-Yi Village Alliance gives away every time, but giving too much at one time is always easy to choke. "
Su Yan said: "Sylvia, we fought more simply this time, and none of the enemy's warships were let go, so the lords of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance must not know about their second batch of invasion fleets now." The entire army has been wiped out, and this time we will most likely have more time to prepare."
Qu Mao said: "Su Yan, don't be blindly optimistic. This time they all surrendered, and these heroes will definitely no longer appear on their lord's territory attribute panel, and this news will definitely be passed on to the lords of the Anti-Yi Village Alliance.
I only hope that the destruction of hundreds of their warships and the capture of 30,000 to 40,000 naval soldiers will hurt them and make it longer for them to gather their forces again. "
Several people discussed for a long time in the temporary camp where the army faced each other, and finally Qu Mao concluded: "Well, we don't have to continue to struggle with this issue, the six epic naval heroes, the plan of the warship follows the plan of Sylvia, 14 With a medium-sized warship and 60 small warships, the navy has a fixed personnel of 26,500. Sylvia controls the source and training of naval soldiers by itself, but the second batch of anti-Yi village alliance invasion fleet landed in the advanced base, and at most 8,000 people were used. , others need not be considered.
It is enough for the army to absorb 500 surrendered soldiers, and the others are free. With the increase of population and the increase of our villages, we will consider whether to increase the army's establishment.
The rest of the surrendered troops and the transferred freedmen will be arranged by Su Yan, and all arrangements will be made for the city wall of Yi Village, the dam of the Lihe Reservoir, and the dam of the Lihe River. "
Sylvia Ocean said: "My lord, if there are 74 naval warships, then our Isle of Yi Naval Port will not be enough. The Tier 0 Naval Port can accommodate 50 small warships, plus In the berths of the shipyard, we can barely berth 65 warships, and now there are 74 warships, which means that we still have 9 warships to occupy the civilian docks, or berth on the temporary docks of Di Port."
Qu Mao thought for a while, and said: "Sylvia, we don't have the architectural drawings for upgrading the military port to the first level, so we can only build a second military port.
There should be no place to build a second military port on Yi Island. You can find it on outlying islands, or on islands in the southern sea area to find a place to build a new military port.
Maffei Trani is about to return from Yancheng Port, and it is estimated that he can bring back 30,000 gold coins, which should be enough to build another military port by then. "
Sylvia Oshen said: "My lord, the construction of the military port is not something that can be done in a day or two, so I should look for it as soon as possible. I don't have to wait for Lord Maffei Trani to bring back the gold coins before starting."
Qu Mao said: "You can look for it first, but to resettle nearly 10,000 free people, we have to build at least 20 villages. All of these will cost gold coins. Just don't blow up our accounts in the territory of Yi Village."
Su Yan said: "Sir, as you said, we need to build 20 new villages. Whether it is new construction or expansion, you should also give a charter."
Qu Maodao: "The cost of newly expanding villages will be lower, and the cost of building new villages will be higher. Among the 20 villages, I think at least 5 or more villages need to be built. Of course, considering the subsequent increase in population, we may not Must only build 20 villages.
Outlying islands try to build three more villages between Dicheng and Yicun, and divide the 20 kilometers of virgin forest between Yicun and Dicheng into virgin forests about 5 kilometers apart.
Kong Ming, we still have 8,000 prisoners of war who have not surrendered. You arrange these prisoners as soon as possible, and build the water-blocking dam and the river embankment as soon as possible, and strive to complete these two projects as soon as possible. "
Kong Ming said: "Yes, my lord! The subordinates will make arrangements as soon as possible.
We have exceeded the population limit of 60,000. The current establishment of the army should remain unchanged until the total population reaches 100,000. Other prisoners of war, surrendered troops, and subordinates of the surrendered soldiers will be slightly coordinated. "
Qu Mao glanced at Zhao Pan and said, "Zhao Pan, recruit 5,000 troops to the army as soon as possible."
Zhao Pan said: "Understood, my lord."
