Chapter 1538: Viscount John Rafi
Why does Marin think that "the poor mountains and evil waters produce elite soldiers"? Because of the poor mountains and poor waters, people can't afford to read books, which is relatively foolish. The stupid people are relatively stupid. Because they have no cultural basis for thinking.
Such people often go forward bravely regardless of the consequences when fighting. The army, exactly, likes these stunned soldiers the most. Those rich and educated people refuse to take their golden bodies and people desperately. Therefore, since ancient times, the north has sent troops, but the rich south has always been beaten by the northern army.
The most obvious contrast is the northeast of later generations. In the past when China was still very poor, in the northeast, the bears and children were fighting from small to big. At that time, everyone was poor and had no entertainment activities. Such bear children, when they grow up, are elite soldiers, because they are used to doing things. Especially those stunned people who are often opened and still insist on working with people, are among the elite soldiers ...
However, with the development of China's economy, there were fewer fights in Northeast China. Why? Can't afford it! How dare you try it? Lose you! Then, compared with their predecessors, the Northeast boys after 00 had too many fights. When I grow up, it is not much different from people in other places. Of course, this is also related to the standard of living. They have more recreational activities. Unlike their poor seniors, they can only spend their spare time by fighting and bragging ... And there is too much reading, and it is not easy to get **** ...
Of course, there is no absolute thing. There is another way to make soldiers brave, that is-brainwashing!
As long as he instills the idea of being brave and fearless of death every day, even the scholars from Jiangnan Water Town will be enthusiastic and desperate. Before being shot, he can also shout "Kill XX". Such an army can often be invincible, and it is a challenge to leapfrog. Because the soldiers are honored by the death of war ... Just like a terrorist of a certain religion, after being fooled, he was willing to be covered with bombs and then clicked ... It seems that in the early Tang Dynasty, the Persian Empire, one of the world ’s powers, was A group of poor ghost fanatics armed with scimitars in the Arabian Peninsula were chopped off. In front of the brainwashed fanatics, even the Erzongzi who were born with excellent arms must retreat from the Sanshe-Erzengzi is just not afraid of death. People are willing to die, can it be compared?
...
Although Gonzalo de Cordoba was about to leave, he left his adjutant Francis to give the Spanish aristocracy to take over the military. After all, those who have just arrived are unfamiliar with the situation. With the help of Francis, you can get started quickly.
Before these Duke and Earl came, Ferdinand II still gave an explanation-try to be as stable as possible and continue the tactical tactics of Gonzalo de Cordoba ... after all, Ferdinand II Shi is only worried about Gonzalo de Cordoba ’s self-respect, but he still believes in his ability and vision ...
But Ferdinand II did not think that these Spanish nobles who came to take over the military power would willingly "slightly rule Cao Sui"? They all hold their breath and want to win. How can they continue to use Gonçalo de Cordoba's previous conservative tactics? In that case, even if they win in the end, they will not be credited.
Therefore, these big nobles promised Ferdinand II, but they already had other ideas in their hearts ...
Of course, no matter what thoughts in mind, they just came to the Spanish camp outside Naples, they are still relatively low-key, did not randomly order. Because, when they first arrived, the first problem they faced was to master the military power!
As newcomers, they know nothing about this army, and naturally they ca n’t talk about control or control. Therefore, from the beginning, they needed to use Francis, an adjutant familiar with the situation, to slowly take control of the army. Only then can other ideas be implemented.
So, for a while, everyone was at ease and together. However, in private, it was an undercurrent. After all, this time Ferdinand II sent 5 Duke and Earl to come to control the military power.
However, in the end, if you want to make a contribution, you still have to distinguish between the superior and the secondary. Therefore, a few people are hardworking and want to take the lead and become Ferdinand II's true confidante ...
...
Gonzalo de Córdoba ’s request for the selection of 10,000 people and the application for the removal of a group of officers and 1,500 musketeers were quickly returned to Spain by the carrier pigeons. Ferdinand II was a little guilty about leaving Gonzalo de Córdoba and agreed to Gonzalo de Córdoba ’s request and quickly passed the pigeons back to the city of Naples. .
Then, the civilian camps outside the Spanish camp vigorously held a "competition meeting."
The strong men from 60,000 peasants came up with no sticks on their heads to compete with their opponents one by one. Someone was eliminated without stopping, or someone was winning and entering the next round. After a few rounds, in the end, there were 10,000 of the strongest and most powerful Min Zhuang who won the competition and were added to the new army.
After choosing the right people, Gonzalo de Cordoba and the 10,000 recruits, as well as officers and musketeers, left the port of Naples in batches by boat.
...
In the city of Naples, Louis XII, who had been anxiously waiting for a few months, learned that Gonzalo de Cordova had been transferred away, and immediately jumped up happily, and took a feast, attracting a group of confidants to celebrate.
At the banquet, Louis XII said to all his confidantes:
"You guys, that **** Gonzalo was finally transferred by the Spaniards. Our opportunity comes, and soon, we will defeat the **** Spaniards and monopolize this treasure of the Kingdom of Naples!"
A group of people raised their glasses to echo Louis XII ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~
Halfway through the drink, Louis XII finally remembered the biggest contributor to the success of the plan-John Rafi. So he stood up, picked up the glass and said to John Rafi:
"Come on, our hero, Viscount John Raffy!"
There was a moment of silence at the banquet, and everyone looked at John Rafi in astonishment—is this a promotion of the title?
However, this is not common sense. Generally speaking, rewards for merit and demerit will only be discussed after the war is over. However, at this moment, before the war is over, will the title be promoted?
Of course, Louis XII had his intentions. I saw Louis XII's intentions:
"I will not treat every servant with great merit. Baron John Rafi has repeatedly made critical and correct suggestions in this war with great credit. Therefore, I have decided to promote it to Viscount now. If there are good suggestions, or anyone who can bravely kill the enemy for me, I will not treat him badly! "
After a pause, Louis XII raised his glass and shouted:
"Great titles and territories are waiting for you, everyone, what are you waiting for? France will win!"
Then all the French officers present stood up and toasted:
"Long live the King, France will win!"
...
At this point, an outsider of John Lafite has finally successfully entered the core circle of the French aristocracy. After all, in Europe, Viscount actually means "Vice Earl". Although this knighthood is not really a big noble like Earl, it is also eligible to enter the core circle ...
The main task of John Lafite's lurking in France is to be mixed into the noble circle in the core of France. Then, grasp the whereabouts of Tudor Margaret, so that Marin sent them to get rid of them. At the same time, it is also convenient for Marin to secretly influence the French church ...
