Chapter 1791: Set up Guantanamo "set"
♂ ?,
"Your Majesty, all blame Kleiman for doing things recklessly! If he could take the manpower in batches and prevent the output of the silver mine from fluctuating, there would be no such thing ..." Kohler said with shame.
Marin is indeed a bit unhappy, but he also knows that it doesn't make sense to hold accountable at this time. Moreover, from the process point of view, Clayman is actually not wrong, at most it is not confidential. But the problem is that he didn't tell him to keep secrets before ...
Therefore, Klayman can't be investigated. To hold accountable, you also have. Of course, although he was not held accountable, Kleman's credit this time was no more.
After learning about Marin's attitude, Kohler was relieved. Kleiman is his younger brother after all, it doesn't matter if the credit is gone, he and Kahn will help him later. But if it is punished, it will be affected. There are bad stains left on the archives, and even if you make a contribution later, it is easy to be questioned. A cold treatment like Marin is actually a good ending for Kleiman.
In fact, Marin only looked at Kahn and Kohler's face in helping him to be born and died, and did not pursue it. After all, Kleiman didn't make mistakes intentionally. What if I try another person? Even if it is true, it is necessary to bear the blame for the monarch. Just like Qin Hui, Song Gaozong carried the black pot for 800 years ...
If Beihai is a country that intends to close its doors and play with itself, Marin can actually ignore these rumors. Anyway, with the Holy See backing, no one can take him. After all, anyone who violates the canon or something and wants to punish or condemn it, only the Holy See has this right. It doesn't matter if other people are slamming.
However, Marin's Beihai country needs to recruit immigrants from various places and also recruit mountain people from the southern region to serve as soldiers. Therefore, Marin cannot ignore this smear and must take countermeasures. In the words of future generations, this is called "crisis public relations". This kind of public relations is usually seen after a star is burst into black material, and is usually completed by a professional team.
Of course, the crisis public relations in this era is not so complicated, and there is no such a convenient channel. The easiest way to deal with this is to put on a legal and reasonable "coat" for the arrest of the Taino labor force and then publicize it.
To this end, Marin summoned all the generals who had better brains under his command to discuss the countermeasures together. Officials, Prime Minister Jeffrey, and Deputy Prime Minister Mikel (formerly Danish Prime Minister), Prime Minister Heidel and the Governor of Oldenburg Not far away, Marin was also invited to discuss. The military official is naturally dominated by Schwartz, Stade and Wagner. In addition, Kohler and Sauer, who is responsible for intelligence, also attended, plus a Kahn as a mascot ...
At the meeting, Jeffrey first spoke:
"There is nothing more to say here, just to say that it is to recruit peasants in the territory (the beautification of the serf), and firmly denies that it is a slave!"
Mikel shook his head:
"If I say this, I am afraid that others will not believe it, but will cause more criticism."
Mikel, as the prime minister of the Danish kingdom, has rich experience in dealing with similar things. He knew that unilateral interpretation of this rumor was useless. Once someone doubts, they will never listen to the words. Unless, there is an official certificate that proves that there is no problem.
But in later generations, even official rumours are useless. Those conspiracy theorists will always find all kinds of wonderful reasons, saying that this is something to hide. In short, the sunspot is black all his life and will never listen to the explanation.
Fortunately, there is no such brainless sunspot in this era. Moreover, there is no extra-legal place like the Internet for the black spots to play. Basically, as long as there is an official investigation, rumors can be dispelled.
But the question is, how to come up with the results of the official investigation?
"Or, let the Holy See send an investigation team to investigate this matter is rumor?" Schwartz suggested.
Machiavelli shook his head and said:
"I am afraid that the unilateral investigation of the Holy See is difficult to convince the public. After all, everyone knows the close relationship between His Majesty and the Pope. If it is a unilateral investigation by the Holy See, it may be difficult to convince the public."
"Then invite envoys from other countries to join the investigation in Haiti?" Jeffrey suggested.
"No!" Marin stood up and vetoed. He firmly said:
"You should know that I have been describing the terrible America, that I do not want people to know the richness of the Americas. If the emissaries of powerful countries like France and Spain set foot on the land of the Americas and see the fertile soil over there, it is impossible to guarantee that they will give birth to **** Thoughts! "
Haiti Island is not big, but it's really big. The area of 76,000 square kilometers is larger than that of the Kingdom of Naples. Not to mention the Spanish side, if the French, who were extremely greedy for the land, saw it, wouldn't they still play the idea there?
Therefore, Marin desperately did not want the French messenger to go to Haiti to participate in the survey, and he was not happy at all!
Kohler kept silent beside him. At this moment, he suddenly said:
"Since Your Majesty does not want the messengers of France and Spain to pass by, then, just don't invite them to pass ..."
"If you are not invited, the persuasion is not enough ..." Wagner said.
Kohler thought for a while and explained:
"That being said, but, as far as I know, these rumours that discredit the North Sea have nothing to do with France and Spain, but are rumors created by the dissatisfaction and jealousy of some princes within Germany. In this case, why do n’t we directly target these rumors , Let them send messengers to monitor the investigation? "
"Your Majesty fears that France and Spain will be greedy for seeing the land of the Americas, because France and Spain are powerful and have great potential for sailing. However, if we invite the messengers of the German landlocked countries that rumored to oversee in the past, even if they have seen the Americas The vastness of the land, how about that? They are small inland states, and even if they are greedy for those lands, they ca n’t send ships to grab ... "
"Good idea!" Marin snapped the table after hearing it.
Indeed, the few small states that ruined Malin were all inland states in southern Germany. Even if they were asked to send envoys to see Haiti, it would be fine. Anyway, those few small states have no possibility of developing navigation. After all, who calls them landlocked states?
Even if they let them see the huge island of Haiti, they are powerless. Of course, in order to prevent them from spreading the beauty of the American colonies. Therefore, Marin decided to only take the investigation team to the small coastal castle besieged by the indigenous people in Santo Domingo, rather than to the Cuban Havana colony that had been developed into fertile land.
Even when the investigation team went, Santo Domingo had to pretend that it was unavailable. For example, the usual very good food, instead of eating sweet potatoes, eat sweet potatoes three times a day. At most, send a boat to the sea to order some fish. Then, find a cook with poor cooking skills to make some seawater boiled fish, even if it is an extra meal to entertain the investigation team.
Compared with the fact that the investigation team had seen Tiantian sweet potato rice in the past, after the occasional boiled fish in the sea to improve the bad life of the food, those envoys of the German state would definitely preach it. In this way, it fits the theme of Marlin's deliberate denial of America.
Of course, you can't just take them to visit the besieged city of Santo Domingo, but you can also take them to visit Lower Cuba Island. However, it cannot be the colony of Havana in the west of the Cuban island, nor the colony of Moa in the northeast of the mine.
In accordance with the principle of proximity, Marin intends to temporarily build a fake Cuban colony in the undeveloped places on the Cuban island and invite the investigation team to visit.
This fake Cuban colony must have a certain degree of development, and must have a castle and farmland. However, the conditions cannot be too good, and one cannot see the superiority of the Cuban island.
Therefore, after thinking about it, Malin finally came up with an idea-in the area closest to Haiti Island on the southeastern coast of Cuba Island, choose a place and build a fake colony like the posterity to build a studio to flirt with the envoys of the mission.
And this place was selected by Marin in a very, very famous place in the later Cuba-Guantanamo!
Guantanamo is an excellent harbor on the southeastern coast of Cuba, but Guantanamo is not well known for its city and harbor. What is really famous is the "Guantanamo Prison" on the east bank of this harbor exit.
That's what Lao Mei used to imprison one person and one child, and it also caused a prisoner abuse scandal, which is a famous ball. The place where Marin wanted to build a deceptive "studio" is the place of Guantanamo Prison in the later generations, about 117 square kilometers.
Marin intends to build a small castle on that land ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ stationed two hundred soldiers. Then, mobilize the horses and horses to reclaim a large area of sugar cane around the castle, creating the illusion that “it has been reclaimed here for a long time”.
This is of secondary importance. Marin also plans to dispatch 1,000 of the 2,000 puppet soldiers of the Havana colony in Cuba to disguise themselves as barbarous indigenous warriors. When the investigation team visited Guantanamo Castle, they deliberately besieged the castle and caused " It ’s dangerous here. Then, through the mouths of the spectators, back to Europe, let everyone see the "terrible place" of colonization in the Americas ...
To do what he said, Marin immediately mobilized a large number of engineering personnel, carrying a lot of materials, and moved to Guantanamo to build a castle. At the same time, he ordered Tara to send 10,000 Cuban indigenous serfs to the Guantanamo area, cut trees and make fields, get a piece of sugar cane field, and fool the investigation team ...
It can be said that Marin is equivalent to setting up a huge studio in Guantanamo. It works, not for filming, but for the bystanders of the princely countries in the acting flicker investigation group ...
Although building such a large studio, the cost is slightly higher. However, if it is through the mouth of those unfriendly messengers to promote the "terrible" of the lower Americas, this investment is still worthwhile. At least, within a certain period of time, the coveted competitors can be dispelled ...
