Chapter 1377: Post-war reconstruction
Sieg was right. No one really thought that someone would send troops to do things at Christmas this year. In addition to Marin, who has a pope as a backer, it is also the case that a powerful country such as France who dares to kidnap the pope is so chaotic.
Therefore, the local nobles in the Principality of Brabant will not expect that there will be an enemy attack this evening. Many people are so drunk as they celebrate Christmas and sleep like dead pigs.
When the passers-by killed the target manor, they basically did not encounter any resistance. Only a few noble loyal dogs came out and called a few times, and then they were stabbed to death with spears by the murderous Swiss mercenaries.
Later, the Swiss mercenaries who had not eaten meat for a long time actually left people to treat the stabbed dogs on the spot and then put them on the grill ...
The Europeans of this year are not as hypocritical as their later generations, and there are no animal protectors. It ’s good for people to survive, who will protect the dog? And there is no canon for not eating dog meat in Christianity, so a group of Swiss mercenaries who have n’t eaten meat for a long time ate a delicious meal of roasted dog meat.
As for the nobles and attendants in the noble manor? In the face of 500 fierce and experienced Swiss mercenaries, there is no resistance at all ...
Fortunately, officers know to hurry, otherwise, this group of villains who have not been drinking and eating meat for a long time will rely on drinking and eating meat, and then harm women ...
Before leaving, these Swiss mercenaries snatched all the gold and silver coins from the manor and took away a lot of food and clothes. As for the captured nobles, although they cannot be killed because of European common practice. But these Swiss mercenaries beat the captured nobles hard to vent their anger. Even some noble ladies and noble ladies were scourge ...
...
In one night, more than 2,000 Swiss mercenaries looted a dozen noble estates and seized 200 horses and hundreds of weapons. Of course, there is a lot of food and clothes.
Early the next morning, Sieg summoned everyone and distributed food and clothes. Then, let everyone make a team and follow the 7000 French Cavaliers south.
The French knights are also chicken thieves. In order not to give the Holy See any words, they deliberately shot the black bear flag in the Swiss canton of Geneva. In this way, the rescue of Swiss mercenaries makes sense-the Swiss rescue the Swiss ...
Originally, Louis XII wanted to display the banner of the Habsburg family. But that's too nonsense, and ghosts don't believe it. Although Louis XII was not afraid of the Pope, it was really troublesome to anger the Pope for being punished. Therefore, he simply let his men play the flag of the Swiss canton of Bern. In this way, even if the Pope is angry, they can throw the pot at Christmas ... and the Holy See certainly does not want to completely fall out with France, so the Holy See will eventually go back to the back ...
As for the cantonal Berne? How does the Holy See punish? Severely punish everyone in a state? It seems unlikely ...
...
As the army went south, Sieg continued to divide troops and ransack the manor along the way. The French knights also sent cavalry to help, mainly to **** the horses along the estate. With horses, the march can be faster. Also, you can get some weapons and food ...
In addition to the manor, the small towns along the way were also attacked by this army. Especially those small towns along the way without walls, all were looted without a spare.
By the time the army passed through the Principality of Brabant and entered the territory of the Namur State, the weapons of the army were basically equipped-most of them were long-haired. In addition, they also grabbed 4,000 horses. Although they are all horses, but the food and materials used to carry the army along the way, it can't be better ...
After entering the Namur State, this Swiss mercenary who gradually recovered his fighting memory also tried to attack a small city. As a result, they were really beaten down ...
While they were raging in the Namur Kingdom, Ghent's handsome king Philip didn't make any movement ...
No way, at this time the Habsburg family had only 6,000 soldiers left in the Netherlands, and only 5,000 in Ghent. According to reports from spies, as many as six or seven thousand cavalry came to the prison. And 70,000 Swiss veterans were rescued. Unless he is crazy, he will send a 5,000 Gent garrison out of town to die ...
Therefore, Prince Philip could only watch more than 20,000 enemy troops heading south all the way into France ...
...
As for Marin who can intercept them, Prince Philip sent someone to ask for help. However, Marin did not want to rescue. So, Marin wisely fell ill ...
Of course, it was estimated that almost all of the group had left the Netherlands, and Marin only shot two thousand cavalry to go to the Netherlands. At the same time, I brought some gifts of condolences, and it was considered to be confessed ...
Although Prince Philip was very angry, he did not dare to flip his face with Marin. After all, the Habsburg family can't afford the consequences of turning over the Beihai Kingdom ...
...
After sending the handsome king Philip's messenger, Marin immediately "healed" and began a very important work-post-war reconstruction ...
In this war, as the Oldenburg region, the North and South Münster region and the Ruhr region, which were mainly affected by the military disaster, the local social order and economy were severely damaged by the coalition forces of the eight countries. Many houses in the manor were burnt down by the coalition forces, and many people were also persecuted by the coalition forces of the princes of the eight countries ...
Therefore, what Marin has to do now is to appease the people and help the disaster-stricken people to rebuild their houses to survive the cold winter.
To this end, Marin now mobilizes food while distributing relief in the Oldenburg area. Then, Marin also forced the tens of thousands of captured coalition soldiers and civilians to help the disaster-stricken people build adobe houses in this cold winter ...
The construction of the adobe house is very simple-as long as you mix the yellow mud ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ with some weeds as "bones". Then, using the method of building, press the agitated yellow mud between the two plywood to cover the grass bar, and then compact it |, the fire pile is dried ...
The cost of such a house is very cheap. After all, it only requires yellow mud and weeds to build a house. At most, some wood is needed for doors, windows and house fixtures.
The only trouble is that building such a house requires a lot of labor. But fortunately, after Marin won this war, he got tens of thousands of captives, which happened to be used in the construction of adobe houses.
In addition to the post-war reconstruction in the original North Sea region, Marin also attached great importance to the newly annexed Principality of Braunschweig-Wolfen-Bitter, Principality of Brunswick-Lüneburg, Principality of Saxony-Lauenburg, Post-war reconstruction of newly annexed areas such as Ravensburg, Schaumburg, Lipper and Tecklenburg. After all, these areas are now regarded as the ruled areas of the Beihai Kingdom. They are no longer foreign countries, so they have to be treated the same without discrimination. Otherwise, it will be difficult to get the local people to ...
