"The vassal lords such as the Yamagata, Aizu, Yonezawa are gathering troops from the Bashi country, and they are likely to attack our Edo Castle along the eastern route."

"Many samurai on Kyushu Island, including Fukuoka, Kumamoto, and many other samurai also broke out, and there were constant turmoil in other places except Edo Castle."

After the desecration of the sword order was issued, the originally ended civil war in Japan once again sparked war. The samurai group, whose interests were damaged, took the lead in attacking, gathering the most unwilling samurai in the Imperial Kingdom. Small-scale samurai rebellions occurred one after another in other places. Even the areas led by Daimai, the Nishikoshi, who supported the Kyushu army, also had samurai rebellions.

The new government officials were Daming and the upper samurai, while the middle and lower samurai not only did not get any benefits, but instead lost a series of privileges. The dissatisfied warriors gathered together to complain, and then opposed the new government's rule over them.

"There were lower-level samurai in the former Satsuma clan who occupied an arsenal and held the next retainer to rebel." Shimazu Kokusa was appointed as the deputy general of the provincial government. However, as soon as the "Baoku Order" was announced, even the Shimazu family, which was the earliest rebellion, had lower-level samurai in rebelling.

"The situation in various places is not optimistic. These samurai are not dandy children living in peaceful and prosperous times. They are all descendants of samurai during the Warring States Period. They have participated in civil wars for several years. They have been through the battlefield for a long time and are rebellious. It is very difficult to tame them." In the temporary government office in Edo Castle, the newly appointed officials gathered together to mark which areas had rebellion, and the rebels' march route and scope of influence.

Shimazu Kokuha, Yamauchi Tadaeyoshi, and Mori Hide also participated in the discussion, and they were more familiar with the local terrain.

"First put down the rebellion of the Hayashi country, and the Muro country. Boko Masaino was the grandson of Tokugawa Ieyashi and had some reputation among the samurai group. After Tokugawa Ieki was arrested, many samurai soldiers were led by him, and warriors from all over the country also went to the Hayashi country to gather. If the rebellion of the Hayashi country could be put down, other samurai groups that were waiting and watching would definitely not dare to rebel again." Tateya Soshima, an old man in the Warring States Period, proposed a strategy of first deciding the northeast and then deciding other regions.

Zhang Yuan, Nelson, Sun Xu and other officers from the Jiuzhou Army Department gathered in front of the map and nodded when they heard the opinions expressed by the local Tachibana Somamasa.

Now Japan is full of warriors resisting the new government. In the northeast, the Iwai country and the Muao country have the most powerful rebellion. In other places, there is no Daming leading the way. If the rebellion in various places is suppressed at the same time, the manpower and material resources consumed will be difficult to calculate.

"Shoot the horses first, capture the thief first, capture the king first. We need to form an official army to attack the warriors who rebelled out of the Feather Kingdom." Zhang Yuan and others agreed with Tachibana Somashita's suggestion.

"Who should be the commander of the government army?" Shen Youlong also had some understanding of military affairs. He was the highest official of Japan's province, so he naturally had to inquire about the use of military force in Japan.

"I am temporarily general of the Japanese province, so I will serve as the temporary commander of the government army, and Deputy General Shimazu Kokuha as the deputy commander. The government army is dominated by the Red Turban Samurai. In addition, I will also invite the infantry brigade of the Second Corps and the Fourth Fleet as support troops to march towards the Exodus Kingdom." Zhang Yuan said.

Although he had just taken office, he had already taken the checks and balances of using samurai to attack samurai.

"The peasant uprising army on Shikoku Island will be pacified by officials from Shikoku Island, including Yamanuchi Tadaeyoshi. During the rebellion, the forces of the various vassals will not be disbanded for the time being. After the peasant army has fully attacked the pacification, the forces of the various vassals will be disbanded and the security forces will be formed. The Zhili Fleet will assist you." Nelson said to Yamanuchi Tadaeyoshi.

"With such warships and artillery, we can easily force the landing of the peasant army on Shikoku Island." Tadonico Yamauchi was not worried about the issue of attacking the peasant army because of the involvement of the Zhili fleet.

"The warrior rebellion on Kyushu Island also asks the newly appointed prefectural magistrates to win over or suppress them." Chen Youlong said to Tachibana Soshima and others who are about to take office as the prefectural magistrate of Kumamoto Prefecture.

Although there are warrior rebellions everywhere, the warriors are still full of awe of Daming. These daming counties established as county magistrates can suppress middle and lower-level samurai to the greatest extent.

"Leave the matters on Kyushu Island to our Tachihua family." Tachihua Soshima was full of energy, as if he had returned to the Warring States Period of fighting for hegemony.

After the deployment of suppressing rebellion in various parts of Japan, Zhang Yuan immediately summoned the red-weaver warriors such as Taro Ono and summoned the samurai in Edo Castle to form an official army. Although the samurai group was hated by the Chinese Association, there was no doubt that the samurai group that could fight the most in Japan was the samurai group, and he dared to invade Goryeo. Some samurai who were suppressed by the Chinese Association were temporarily released because of the war and were charged into the government army to act together to make meritorious service.

The number of people in the provincial security forces was 3,000. In order to conquer the samurai country, Zhang Yuan temporarily formed a musket team of more than 5,000 people, and formed a crusade army with the forces of an infantry brigade of the Second Corps. The total combat personnel were 8,000, and marched towards the crusade country along the eastern coastline. The Fourth Fleet replenished the crusade army along the coastline and blocked the coastline.

Yamauchi Tadaeyoshi and other daimyos from Shikoku Island returned to Shikoku Island on the schooner sailing ships and troop transport ships from the Zhili fleet, where there were peasant uprising troops waiting for them to clean up. These peasant uprising troops were all peasants who had no food to eat because of the years of Osaka War. As the war ended, their collapse would be a matter of time.

Daming from Kyushu Island, such as Tachibana Soshima, returned to Kyushu Island to serve as a post to suppress the local warrior rebellion.

There are big figures in several important places, while Shen Yulong is busy restoring the order in Edo Castle and first began to implement the new policy in Edo Castle.

Edo Prefecture is the core of the six Japanese prefectures established, and Edo Castle is also positioned as the location of the provincial government. After Edo Castle is well managed, other places can follow suit.

At the peak of the Samurai Rebellion, there were still naval soldiers on the streets of Edo Castle, and the police were patrolling.

After the Edo referendum, the people of Edo Castle were able to abide by the establishment and management of the new government. Since the grassroots officials in the new government had activated a large number of shogunate clerks, it would not have made ordinary town people feel inconvenient. If it weren't for soldiers wearing Kyushu Navy uniforms standing guard on the street, they would still feel that they were living in the Edo era.
