Add the AutoConnect option.

Browse source 
When set to a non-zero value, tinc will try to maintain exactly that number of
meta connections to other nodes.  If there are not enough connections, it will
periodically try to set up an outgoing connection to a random node.  If there
are too many connections, it will periodically try to remove an outgoing
connection.
