Chapter 1028: Students in Junior Officer Class

In addition to planning to set up multiple furniture factories and wooden craft workshops in the Netherlands, Marin suddenly remembered that he seemed to lack oak barrels ...

Europe in this era is a time when wooden barrels dominate. In current Europe, everything is in barrels. Even if you use oak barrels for wine and beer, gunpowder is also barreled, otherwise how about gunpowder barrels? Bacon is also used in barrels, sucrose is also used in barrels, and flour is also in barrels. Even table salt and stinky salted fish are also in barrels ... this is really an era of barrels ...

This is actually a matter of no way. In this era, European linen is scarce, let alone weaving sacks, even if weaving clothes is not enough. Don't even think about the hide pocket, that is more expensive. Marlin's use of oil paper bags to sucrose cannot be imitated by other European countries. Because, nowadays, European man-made paper still uses Cai Lun papermaking with rags and fishing nets. The European cloth is expensive, the poor people are reluctant to throw the cloth around, they always sew and continue to wear it. Therefore, the raw materials are difficult to find, resulting in expensive European paper prices. Other European countries, want to use oil paper as packaging, is definitely a luxury. Not to mention, the oil used in bubble paper is also very scarce ...

Therefore, in this era, the demand for wooden barrels in Europe is very large, greater than furniture. When Marin realized this, he immediately made up his mind-be sure to invest and build a number of wooden barrel factories in the Netherlands, specializing in the manufacture of oak barrels. In the first place, it consumes the limited oak resources in the Netherlands; then, it can also meet the huge market demand ...

Therefore, the Netherlands, which was slanted by Marin, was not only known as the "home kingdom", but also the "barrel kingdom", supplying high-quality oak barrels to all of Europe ... and the barrel manufacturing industry has become one of the pillar industries of the Netherlands. One ... Then, you walk on the streets of Amsterdam, during the commute rush hour, just throw a brick at the crowd, you can easily hit a hoop smith ...

But the wood in the Netherlands alone is obviously not enough to create furniture and hoop oak barrels. Therefore, Marin eventually organized the shipment of oaks purchased from the forests of Norway and southern Sweden to the Netherlands for furniture factories to create furniture and hoop hoops. But in order to prevent the Dutch from using oak for shipbuilding, Marin stipulated that all wood shipped into the Netherlands must be short wood. Long timber that can be used for shipbuilding is not allowed to flow into the Netherlands ...

...

This is not enough. In order to completely cut off the future of the Dutch sailing, the big devil Marin also sent fishing boats to fish in the waters near the Netherlands and competed with Dutch fishermen for herring resources.

Moreover, Marin also introduced a piercing knife that the Dutch were proud of to scrape the intestines of the herring, processed the herring and smeared the salt, and sold it to Europe to compete with Dutch fishermen.

Although everyone's fish are the same, they are from the North Sea. But salt is different ...

The Netherlands does not produce salt, mainly because of the lack of firewood for cooking salt. Dutch fishermen who want to marinate herring have to import sea salt from the UK or import inferior mineral salt from Germany.

And Marin itself is a salt-producing tycoon, with too much salt in his hand. In order to overwhelm the Dutch fishermen in the competition, Marin did not hesitate to lower the salt price, so that his Frisian fishermen could sell salted fish at a lower price to achieve the purpose of dumping.

Marin's move is very ruthless, the quality of the salted fish on both sides is similar, and the price of salted fish in the Frisian fishermen in the North Sea country is lower, and the fool knows who to buy. Dutch fishermen cannot cut prices arbitrarily because they buy salt at a high cost. If the price is reduced, the cost may be difficult to recover. Then, the Dutch fishing industry slowly began to decline. More Dutch fishermen gave up fishing and entered the city, working in woolen factories, furniture factories and hoop workshops, becoming workers ... And as the number of fishermen decreased, the source of Dutch sailors also decreased, and the voyages became more Can't do it ...

...

Marin spent too much time calculating the unlucky Dutch. The Dutch did not know that the great devil Marin came up with all means to smash the Netherlands as a great maritime empire. This has made the Netherlands very mediocre in the European history for hundreds of years, and its presence is as weak as the declining Denmark ...

If the Dutch knew that all were caused by Marin, maybe they would attack Marin in anger, and would rather use a fish-sharp knife to scrape Marin's intestine ...

...

Over time, it turned to mid-to-late September. Because of the application of phosphate fertilizers, the crops in the North Sea East Friesland, West Friesland, Oldenburg provinces and other areas where new agricultural technologies and "three fertilizers" are used have matured and are early. The autumn harvest began.

However, in the face of the golden harvest of harvest, Marin missed the autumn harvest. Because he wanted to go south to Italy, preparing for the attack on the Republic of Siena early.

As the old saying goes, "Know yourself and know each other, you can't fight a hundred battles." In order to successfully defeat Siena, Marin naturally needs to pass early and make adequate preparations, so as to avoid losing ground due to insufficient preparation after the launch.

Failure is a trivial matter. The key is not to let the army lose too much. Most of the soldiers under Marin are now experienced veterans. They are very valuable, and they are incomparable to those temporary conscripts used as cannon fodder. If a large number of professional veterans are lost, Marin is estimated to cry in the toilet.

Therefore, Marin intends to take advantage of the autumn harvest season to go south early, and quietly go to the Siena area to observe the terrain. After the official start, it will be more confident.

In addition, in order to prevent the desperate situation of food shortages, Marin also plans to buy some houses outside Siena and hide some food in the house. In this way, even if the attacking Beihai country's mountain infantry ran out of food, they could use these pre-hidden food for a while, and wait until the Fourth Army arrived with its weight and grain ...

...

Just when Marin was about to leave, Gustavo, the instructor of the junior class of the Junior Officer, suddenly found Marin and asked to take his trainees south to Italy to join the war ...

All in all, in the past few years, Marin almost forgot the crash course of the young officer he had established. Because, in order to hone those young people who participated in the junior officer rush course, Marin specially put the place of this officer class in the "Longxing Land", the capital of Texel Island, where he started.

Where is Texel? It is on the westernmost side of the West Frisian Islands, and it is almost connected to the northern end of the Dutch province of Netherlands in the Habsburg family.

Because it was too far away from the local area, and Gustavo, this guy was not very likely to drill camp, causing Marin to forget that he still had a crash course for young officers on Texel Island ...

This crash course for young officers was established in 1502, and it has been almost six years now. When the class was first established, Malinte selected 200 clever and brave 16-year-olds, and also compiled a simplified infantry training outline for it, compressing the vocabulary to 800 professional military-specific terms (mainly those teenagers are illiterate At that time, it was difficult to find someone who was not illiterate).

Originally, Marin planned to make the students of this junior officer's crash course quick and then they were recruited into the army. But later, Marin changed his mind. While teaching the basic military knowledge of the students in the crash course of young officers, they are also teaching them literacy and mathematics in earnest, and intend to train them as regular officers.

And the learning cycle of cultural knowledge is long, and then Marin's time is long, almost forgetting the teenagers in the junior officer class.

Until now, the youngsters of Gustavo and the officer class felt that they had learned a lot of cultural knowledge and almost reached the level of elementary school graduation before coming to Marin. At this time, after 6 years, the students in the junior class are already 22 or 33 years old, which is a good time to go to the battlefield.

As it happened, Gustavo heard that Marin was quietly transferring troops recently. So he began to inquire about the news ...

Gustavo was also an officer who followed Marin very early, and his military literacy was good. Otherwise, Marin will not be arranged to manage the junior officer rush classes. Even, Gustavo's status in the East Frisian army was still relatively high, and many relatives and friends in the army were old.

However, this product is not good at drilling camp, burying his head to train those 200 teenagers, causing Marin almost to forget him. Fortunately, the old relationship before him was still there. After inquiring, he learned that the Beihai Kingdom was transporting troops to Italy, and there was obviously a big move. So he simply went to Marin and asked the young reserve officers to join the battle ...

"Let that group of teenagers participate in the war ... Is it reliable?" Marin hesitated ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ This is a brutal war. It seems too risky to let the children who have not been on the battlefield ...

"Dagong, please allow me to correct your opinion. They are no longer children, but young people aged 22 or 23. After all, the students of the 'Junior Officer Crash Course' have been studying for 6 years!"

"It's been 6 years!" Marin sighed with emotion, and all the youngsters selected at the beginning had grown into young people.

Originally, Marin still intended to reject Gustavo's request. However, he suddenly remembered the "Huangpu Student Army" in the history of previous life. It seems that the student army of the Huangpu Military Academy participated in the war of rebellion and Chen Jiongming's rebellion for the first time. I just don't know if my 200 young reserve officers can grow and shine like the Huangpu Student Army.

Marin is full of expectations for this. You must know that these young reserve officers are different from those in the army. Those officers in the Marin Army now stand out from the brutal fighting on the battlefield. However, these people are generally vulgar, and many officers do not understand even the military orders. They also need to send the soldiers to verbally convey the military orders, which makes Marin helpless. Moreover, let them read and read, they can't read it.

Therefore, Marin is looking forward to these junior trainee officers who have been educated and trained for several years. Therefore, he learned the method of Jiang Guangtou in those years, and organized the graduates of these officer classes into a teaching group, independently organized and followed him. Of course, it's not that they charged. After all, it was the first battle, Marin only asked them to learn more from their side. Then, find an opportunity for them to see the blood so as to accelerate their growth ... ()
