Chapter 1294: King of Black Pot
In fact, Marin also knows that this is very kind. However, he had no choice. Although it is necessary to pretend to be miserable and to be defeated, it is really a big problem if the soldiers and horses of the Beihai country are defeated.
What big problem? That is-the invincible self-confidence of the Beihai army!
A person's self-confidence is very important, and a military's self-confidence is even more important. With self-confidence, soldiers can charge forward without fear, without fear. If you are not confident, it is easy to frighten the battle and even defeat.
Just like the Ming Dynasty frontiers and Mongolian cavalry, is there really such a big gap between them? As long as the Ming soldiers dare to work hard, even if the infantry can't beat the cavalry, but the number advantage is there, as long as they dare to change their lives, they will definitely consume the other party.
Accountability is not so calculated. On the battlefield, the confidence to win is often more important than the number advantage. The Mongolian cavalry is confident that it can completely abuse the Ming soldiers, so even if there are few people, they dare to charge forward. The Ming Dynasty frontiers had lost their courage because of the many failures. Even if more than a hundred Mongolian cavalry rushed over, thousands of Ming troops could be overwhelmed.
The most exaggerated is that the Japanese invaders invaded Jiangnan during the period of Jiajing, stunned to frighten the tens of thousands of soldiers and soldiers of the Jiangnan army. Can those guards beat those dozens of pirates? Certainly impossible. The point is that there were rumors at the time that the Japanese pirates were bittersweet and demonized. Then, he was so scared that Jiang Nanming was afraid to move. But after the reaction came over, they sent someone to chase the sea and find face ...
Therefore, the army cannot lose self-confidence if it loses anything. The confidence of the military is an important part of the so-called military soul, and it is indispensable.
Because self-confidence is so important, in later generations, whether it is the Germans, the devils, or the People's Liberation Army, they are desperately promoting their "invincible", and they will never say they cannot win. Lao Mei is also, in the recruitment video, various aircraft missiles frequently appear, telling you-our weapons are advanced, you can beat people, not be beaten ...
Therefore, although Marin wants to cheat and let the enemy relax his vigilance, he is unwilling to break the myth that "the North Sea army is invincible."
So, how to solve this problem? Very easy to do, find someone to bear the blame ...
Looking at Europe, who else is more suitable than the Italian mercenaries to bear this blame?
...
In fact, Italian mercenaries are not as bad as Marin imagined. Saying that they are bad is also compared to the German mercenaries. However, the Italian mercenaries of this era are by no means as funny as the Italian mercenaries during World War II ...
The Italian mercenaries of this era may now be a little disciplinary, and the quality of individual soldiers is not as good as that of German mercenaries, but they are not so bad that they can not beat the African blacks during World War II.
Moreover, before this, French King Louis XII had also hired more than 20,000 Italian mercenaries and the Spanish War. If the Italian mercenaries are too poor, the French will not hire them.
However, in that war, the French army was defeated because Gonzalo de Cordova applied the Marin phalanx (Spanish phalanx) and a large number of muskets.
After the war, in order to shirk responsibility, Louis XII threw the black pot on the head of the Italian mercenaries, thinking that they dragged down the French army. After all, the French have to protect the self-confidence of the French army. Therefore, only Italian mercenaries can be used as a cover ...
After that, the Italian mercenary's reputation dropped sharply, and business was much worse. The Swiss mercenaries were captured by many because they lost to Marin's army. Then, as the Habsburg family invaded Switzerland, the Swiss mercenaries temporarily fell silent. After all, people are also busy resisting the Habsburgs.
The Italian mercenaries carried a huge black pot from the French, and the Swiss mercenaries were busy fighting the Habsburg family. Therefore, during this time, the most moisturizing one was the German mercenaries.
...
Marin did not want to destroy the "invincible" personnel of the North Sea army, but he also had to be defeated. Then, anyway, the Italian mercenaries who had carried the French in a spit, just took it back-anyway, they have lost to the Spaniard once, and then to the German again, nothing ...
Moreover, if this group of Italian mercenaries lose, Marin can not only rely on subsequent commissions. At the same time, the collapse of the self-confidence of the North Sea Army can also be avoided. After all, it was not the army of the North Sea that defeated it, but the notorious Italian mercenaries ...
...
Out of guilt, before the Italian mercenaries drove to Oldenburg, Marin entertained Pargani and his Italian mercenaries at a grand banquet. Of course, it was Schwartz who came forward to entertain.
Then, Schwartz also promised on behalf of Marin-the materials that Oldenburg had hidden in Oldenburg, and they called them. This commitment surprised Pargani and his men.
However, they did not expect that this promise would be useless at all ...
Because once the city of Oldenburg is broken, these materials will be taken away by the eight-nation coalition and will not be left to the Italian mercenaries. So, this is a short check. However, before the city broke, it could give Italian mercenaries a lot of encouragement. After all, guarding the city of Oldenburg is equivalent to guarding their property ...
...
But as soon as he turned around, Marin arranged for spies to inform the princes of the Eight Kingdoms ...
Tell a secret? Naturally, the bottom of Pargani was shaken ...
Marin was afraid that the Eight-Power Allied Forces had abandoned the city of Oldenburg where the Italian mercenaries were stationed and ran to attack the East Frisian land. Therefore, he will arrange for spies to tell the eight princes-this Pargani is a "permanently defeated general in Italy ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ very scum. And, the city of Oldenburg has accumulated Oldenburg Most of the materials and treasures of the berth ...
In this way, the princes of the Eight Kingdoms can come down to die with the Italian mercenaries in the city. Then, get Marin a lot of time ...
While leaving the Italian army, Marin hid in the carriage and watched the Italian mercenaries head for Oldenburg.
Among them, an interesting picture attracted Marin deeply-the 800 mercenaries of the "Gentleman Mercenary Corps" of Pargani, it seems that everyone is wearing a black iron helmet, and the one with the brim Kinds of iron helmets, somewhat like the steel helmets of later generations.
However, at the time of departure, the 800 mercenaries of the "Gentleman Mercenary Corps" did not wear those black iron helmets on their heads, but used straps on their backs ... after all, the iron helmets were heavy and worn The head is pressed against the head, and the back is on the back, it can be much easier ...
"How is this a bit like a black pot, and it's on his back ..."
If Marin realized, then he laughed and laughed in the car ...
"Princess, what's so funny? They have a neat military appearance. Although the combat effectiveness is not good, it looks good ..." Kohler was puzzled. However, apparently Kohler didn't know the stubborn "scumbag" and naturally couldn't get a laugh ...
Then Marin saw Pargani carrying a "black pot" on his back. However, his "black pot" is more gorgeous. Moreover, it seems that there are gorgeous bird hairs on the top of the hat ...
"Hey, let you carry such a **** pot, really worthy of" King of Black Pot "..." Marin looked through the window of the carriage and looked at the vigorous Pargani ...
