Since Prime Minister Prim has already given his stance, it is now time for Carlo to express his position.
Carlo nodded, looking quite in agreement: "Let's proceed according to the Prime Minister's plan. Expanding the colonial armed forces is indeed important, but we must not forget the development of Spain itself.
Additionally, when forming the colonial army, we have to consider the thoughts of the indigenous soldiers to a certain extent. We can appropriately increase the salaries and benefits of these indigenous soldiers, distinguishing them from the ordinary indigenous people in the colonies.
In this way, we can ensure that these indigenous soldiers will be more loyal to us, rather than finding ways to collaborate with the other indigenous people."
Clearly, Spain, like other European countries, does not have enough forces to guard the colonies. Their approach is to form armies composed of indigenous people in the colonies to maintain colonial order.
