Chapter 1114: 6th Army

Originally, Marin planned to send the 61st to 1ooth places of the contest to Rome to replace 4o middle-ranking officers. However, not all 4o wandering knights agreed.

After all, joining Marin ’s garrison stationed in Rome is mercenary in nature. Moreover, it was an infantry officer. The most important thing is-that is not a cavalier knight. Therefore, some people are reluctant to go.

Finally, it was Marin who assured them that as long as he performed well, he could be sealed by the Holy See as a church knight recognized throughout Europe, and only 25 of them were moved.

After all, the Holy See is the most authoritative institution in Europe. The knights recognized by the Holy See have noble immunity in all European countries. Although the knights enshrined in the Holy See may not have a land, they do not need to serve the Holy See for a lifetime. As long as they have served for 1o years, they have a great chance of being sealed by the Holy See as guardian knights. In the future, they will wear the knight's title all their lives and go wherever they want. Even if there is no field, they can do business like those of the Teutonic Knights and Livonia Knights. The nobles are privileged if they are engaged in business. For example, general tax officials are afraid to exploit the noble caravans indiscriminately. Some taxes, such as city entry taxes, can be exempted by nobles. Therefore, being a noble businessman is also a good idea.

...

The reason why he wants to exchange 25 middle-level officers, Marin is planning to form the Sixth Army ...

Right now, Marin already has 5 legions and a total of 50,000 troops (not including soldiers and horses stationed in Rome). It stands to reason that so many soldiers and horses are definitely among the best in Germany, and Marin does not need more soldiers and horses.

But the problem is that the 20,000 troops of the Fourth and Fifth Legions now need to be based in England and Scotland, and are not in the homeland at all. Marin was anxious to go to the Ming Dynasty, but he worried that after he left, the North Sea Congress would be attacked by the enemy. After all, Marin has many enemies. Even though there are currently three legions in the local area, Marin is not at ease.

Because these 30,000 people will be dispersed and stationed in the entire Beihai country, and their military strength is relatively scattered. Once attacked by the enemy, it is likely to be surrounded by division.

At that time, the soldiers and guards guarding Durich may only have 10,000 people in the First Army. Such a force, if faced with multinational coalition forces, is not enough to ensure safety. The Second Army needs to stay in the Ruhr area to ensure the security of the southern territory. The Third Army is stationed in Schleswig to guarantee the safety of Jutland Peninsula ...

Therefore, Marin needs to form a new legion to assist the First Legion to ensure the safety of all. Even if this new legion could not catch up with the three old legions, it should not be a problem for them to hold Aurich. At that time, if the Second Army or the Third Army is attacked or blocked, the First Army can safely rescue or respond. Unlike now, because the First Army needs to guard Aurich, they dare not leave. Even if the Second Army and the Third Army were attacked, they could not help.

The intention of Marin to form the Sixth Army was to liberate the First Army so that it could rescue and respond to the other two local legions at any time. At the same time, when the enemy concentrates its superior forces on the siege of Aurich, it can also defend the city with the First Army. There are two regular legions to defend the city, plus the second legion and the third legion can also return, the local can guarantee security.

...

To form a new legion, you first need a legion chief and a group of capable middle-level officers.

The new commander-in-chief Marin has long been looking for-he is the young officer Heinx who followed Marin south to Italy ...

This is a child of a knight from the mountain region of the Principality of Württemberg in southern Germany. He has good abilities and is good at using his brain. Moreover, although this guy comes from the cavalier family, he can also be spared, and actually moved the whole family to the North Sea country, including his dad who is a caiqi knight ... and this way, it is obvious that Marin has treated him More at ease.

At first, Marin noticed him because of his name. After all, in later generations, the German marshal "Duke Hai" is also the No. 1 character and a Bayern marshal.

And because the name paid special attention to this person, Marin now found that this young officer was really good. At a young age, he has become the leader of the square formation by virtue of his ability. Further up, but it is the head of the legion ...

So, when he went south to Italy, Malinte took him to cultivate ...

Today, Marin is about to leave Beihai to go to Daming. It is estimated that it will take more than a year. Marin was afraid of an accident, so he decided to form a new legion to ensure the safety of the homeland. Then, Heinkes, which Marin had planned to train, was so lucky to be the candidate for the new legion ...

Heinks was already the leader of the square after the head of the legion. He was successful in the battle of Lübeck and was named hereditary knight. Plus this time he went south to Italy with Marin, and made another contribution. Therefore, Marin promoted it as the new head of the legion, most people have no opinion.

...

Of course, it is not enough to form a new army corps, and only a group of middle-ranking officers is needed.

As it happens, the army stationed in Rome usually has nothing to do. Many middle-ranking officers were bored and asked to be transferred back to the local area.

Of course, they are not belligerent. Rather, with the local legion, there are more opportunities for war and it is easier to make war achievements, and then be promoted and promoted to the rank of knight and granted more land ...

Therefore, Marin simply pushed the boat down the river, taking advantage of this contest to plan to select a group of wandering knights to send to Rome to replace those middle-level officers who wanted to be transferred back to China.

Originally, Marin planned to transfer 4o individuals back. However, the 4o people in his picture did not all accept his solicitation. Therefore, Marin did not force, only recruited 25 people.

Moreover, not only the Roman legion was available. In the three local legions, he can also select a group of people from those deputy heads and deputy captains to jointly form the sixth legion ...

There are still many talents in these deputy team leaders and deputy company captains. Otherwise, you will not be promoted to this position. In principle, once their lord is killed, they, as adjutants, are going to take over the commander's position.

So, generally speaking, the abilities of these lieutenants are not bad. Even if it is not as good as the general, it still works. At least, helping to train and build a new legion is absolutely capable.

As for the legionnaire in Rome? There is usually no battle to fight ... After all, who dares to take the world's worst and attack the Holy See? Therefore, the officers of the Roman legion felt very idle ...

Both Stadt and Steindorff had served as the regimental commander of the legion, but because they had nothing to do when they were idle, and Marin needed to hire people, they were transferred back to their homeland. Now ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ is the old knight named Hitz, who is the head of the legion. This man was originally a cavalry knight in the Old Kingdom of Oldenburg. After Oldenburg was destroyed, he surrendered to East Friesland. His ability is okay, mainly good at defense. Therefore, Marin simply sent him to Rome for retirement. After all, he is not Marin's heirloom and is not valued by Marin. Coupled with the older age, it is not bad to send to Rome to take charge of the city defense.

...

After preparing the candidates for the regimental commander and middle-level officers, the next step is to recruit. But most of the soldiers are already ready-Marin and Edward have reached an agreement before, selecting six or seven thousand Scottish highland soldiers from tens of thousands of Scottish prisoners of war ...

At the time of selection, Marin deliberately eliminated all Scottish officers, leaving only ordinary Scottish mountain soldiers. Now, Marin arranges his own officers, which is just conducive to control this soldier.

In addition, in order to facilitate the control of this Scottish army, Marin will not only arrange his own middle-level officers, but also recruit three thousand elite veterans from the second and third legions, and join the Sixth legion with Heynx and other legions. In this way, even if the early Scottish highland soldiers had a change, they could still suppress it.

According to the agreement with Edward, these Scottish highland soldiers will be taken to East Friesland, to avoid staying in the country as a hidden danger.

After leaving the country and coming to East Friesland, these Scotsmen could not make trouble. After all, this is not their home court. Coupled with the fact that there are already three thousand elite veterans in the Sixth Legion, and that they are the most powerful First Legion next to them, Marin is not worried about their tricks.

As for the losses of the 2nd and 3rd Legions, Marin asked them to select outstanding supplementary soldiers directly from the militia ... ()
