"Badashun? Can their private soldiers be used?" Almost at the same time, the same thoughts emerged in the minds of several people.

Badashun is eight business names under Zhang Shun's rule. Because each of them has the word Shun, it is called Badashun. They each have their own specialized business, and they all have shares of Zhang Shunjun, so they have always supported and assisted each other and entered various markets. It is very simple to have Zhang Shun's continuous wars in such a short time because of their strong support.

Because these eight businesses have close ties with the army, they have always been the first choice for soldiers after retirement. Many soldiers usually enter these businesses after leaving the army for various reasons. However, as Zhang Shun's sphere of influence becomes larger and larger, the expansion of these eight businesses is also amazing, which makes them increasingly need their own military power. You should know that in many places, it is difficult for Zhang Shun's army to protect them. If you want to protect themselves, you must rely on your own strength. Fortunately, they have recruited a large number of military talents before. With these people in their hands, it is not difficult for them to form private soldiers. So far, the number of private soldiers in the hands of Bada Shun has exceeded 50,000, and there are more than 30,000 troops in Fuzhou and other places. The most important thing is that the weapons in their hands are not much different from the regular army of Zhang Shun, so some people half-jokingly say that these people are trading armies.

"It's not impossible to let the people of the trading army go to battle, but the problem is that most of them are men, not soldiers, and they are also hired by Badashun. Among them, there is a question of who will give them wages, as well as food, supplies and pensions after death. These are practical problems before us, and we cannot ignore them. Besides, they are all businessmen and have always been profitable and cannot afford to get up early. If these people say that they have nothing, although they can fight, their enthusiasm is still a little less." Someone immediately raised a question.

Zhang Shun had actually thought about this a long time ago, so he just smiled and said, "I have thought about this a long time ago. Tell Bada Shun people that Japan has the best iron ore, a large number of silver ore, and a few countless slaves. As long as they want to eat, they can eat at any time." Hearing them say this, everyone knew that Zhang Shun had made up his mind. Even if he had thought about it, what else could he have not thought about it?

"Xiao Wuzi, when you went to Fuzhou this time, you brought all the supplies here. Although there was an arsenal there, they had already handed over everything to Xu Ning before. Even if there were some, it wouldn't be much, so take everything over."

Shi Jin frowned when he heard this, "If this is the case, what should we do here? We have no way to fight again? But the river is there?"

Zhang Shun smiled slightly, "You don't have to worry about this. Our side is still very close to the base camp. We can replenish some necessary supplies in less than a month, and then we cross the river, so you still take them away, and you don't need to worry about it. There is also a requirement for Badashun to take out all the things they secretly prepared and bring their weapons to the battlefield to give them the greatest benefit. There is another thing that needs to be specially explained to Qian Bin, telling him that this battle is just a piece of territory, stabilize that place, build a new base, and wait for our side to completely solve Kublai Khan before going back and completely solve Japan, so there is no need to underestimate the enemy and enter.

.It is easy to defeat the Japanese army, but it still takes a lot of energy and time to completely control the place. It is not something that can be completed overnight, so don’t worry about it, you have to advance slowly.” He was silent for a moment, then looked at Xiao Wuzi who was staring at him with all his heart, and continued, "You should also bring a letter to Polu and tell him everything I said today. He and Ma Xiao went to Nanyang, but I believe he should already know the situation there now and are rushing back. He should have arrived when you arrive, so he must tell him everything I said."

"Okay! Don't worry, brother-in-law, I will repeat every word you said. But who should I use to build Japan? The local people of Japan?"

"They can be used on some periphery, but the core cannot be used! Let Polu bring all the people he has prepared, and the indigenous people from Hainan Island and Yizhou also moved in. After the past two years, they have become more and more towards us. As long as it is our own people, we believe it. By the way, the monkeys in Jiaozhi can also be used as laborers and can also maintain public order, but they must choose those who are loyal to us. The same is true for the people in Japan. Those who are loyal to us can use them, but they cannot be reused. Let Polu take care of this."

"I must bring all the words to you."

Zhang Shun nodded, and suddenly remembered something. "At the beginning, when Qian Bin was in the naval army school, he led a group of students to make a Japanese strategy plan, but due to various problems at that time, I ordered the plan to be shelved forever. In fact, I was able to let the General Staff Department perform deductions in private, and the result was that this plan could meet our needs. So you tell Qian Bin that it is time to implement that plan. For the Japanese, don't have any forgiveness or other ideas, especially those soldiers. Since they have picked up weapons, they have already given up their right to be a human being, so they can be dealt with at will. However, the people in this place should still be distinguished. After all, we will not fight them in full swing for the time being, so we should pay attention to temporarily winning people's hearts, but don't be kind to them. As long as the people who dare to resist us are not humans."

Zhang Shun's words really made many people feel clamor. How long has his father been thinking about Japan? Not only have he thought about how to fight, but it seems that he has even thought about how to manage it. He doesn't know how to offend the father-in-law, but he doesn't know how this damn Japanese offended the father-in-law?

At this time, Zhang Shun ended his chant, "Okay, go and prepare and set off as soon as possible. Notify our army here and enter the rest stage. We are waiting for the next batch of supplies to arrive to prepare for crossing the river, and notify the General Staff Department to come here immediately. Fatty Dong also comes here quickly. I need them to plan for us after crossing the river. The land there is vast and sparsely populated. After we fight, we have a lot of things to do. Now it is time to come up with a plan."
