Chapter 2037: Don't fight, change flicker

[网] The rise of the European Emperor Marin was actually right. At the beginning, he sent silver mine craftsmen into the Aztec Empire to help the Aztecs open silver mines. Today, the Aztec Empire has indeed ushered in a major explosion of silver production.

With the help of the craftsman Sukh sent by Marin, the Aztec Empire discovered a large silver mine in Sutipico near the capital Tenochtitlan (Mexico City). The Aztec Emperor Montezuma II was also embarrassed. He directly launched a war and looted 100,000 young men from the surrounding nations to help him mine the Sutipiko silver mine. In just two or three years, tens of thousands of pounds of silver were produced. With silver mining on the right track, this year's silver mine output is estimated to reach more than 100,000 pounds.

Kohler went to the Overseas Intelligence Department to check the archives and found that the newly sent intelligence mentioned these.

"100,000 pounds of silver!" Marin's eyes narrowed...

That's 45.3 tons! It is equivalent to 1.216 million taels of silver, which can cast ten thousand standard pfennig small silver coins! This is more than 1 million gold coins!

Not only that, the silver mine engineer (also a special spy) sent to Tenochtitlan also reported a news that shocked Marin-the Aztec Empire had a lot of gold, only Tenochtitlan. Here, the gold owned by palaces, temples, and powerful chiefs amounted to 20,000 to 30,000 pounds.

Among them, royal palaces and pyramid temples have the most gold. In addition to being worn by nobles, another important occasion for gold to be used is temples. The high priests of the Aztec Empire, like Indian women, like to be covered with gold ornaments. They are extremely dazzling and clanging.

The nobles also like gold ornaments, but they are not as large as the number of palaces and temples. Of course, there are many nobles, and together they are also considerable.

With so much gold and silver, Marin was almost so excited that he wanted to learn from Cortez, start a war, and grab all the gold and silver! Moreover, he also has the ability to do this.

According to the original history, Cortez would start a war three years later. Not to mention that Cortez only brought more than 600 people ashore, but then the colonial army sent by the Governor of Cuba to arrest him was incorporated by him, bringing him to as many as 2,000 people. In addition, some local chiefs who opposed Emperor Montezuma II were also deceived by him and attacked Tenochtitlan with him, totaling tens of thousands.

In addition, there is a very important point, and that is the issue of religion!

The unlucky Aztecs circulated the myth of the "White God", mistakenly thinking that Cortes and his party were envoys sent by the so-called "White God", thinking that their party was the **** Curtis in the Aztec myths. A messenger sent by Quesac. Therefore, at first Emperor Montezuma II was not hostile to their group.

It was only afterwards that the Spaniards exposed their ugly faces, looted gold and silver, and even forced them to sell, that aroused the resistance of the Aztecs, and the so-called "night of sorrow" appeared.

Regarding this religious issue, in fact, Clive, a silver mine engineer and spy sent by the North Sea State, was initially regarded by the Aztecs as an envoy of Curtissac. At that time, Clive looked dumbfounded and explained that he was not an envoy because he was not a church member and could not communicate with the gods.

But in the past few years, Clive helped the Aztec Empire find the Sutipiko silver mine, and guided the Aztec empire craftsmen to establish a large-scale mine, and introduced the blast furnace for smelting silver in the North Sea country. In this way, the output of the Sutipiko silver mine broke out.

Montezuma II was very satisfied with Clive's work. He believed that even if Clive was not an envoy, he was sent by the White God to help the Aztec Empire. Clive had an idea at the time. He didn't admit it, but he didn't deny it either. He only said that it was God's guidance...

Having said that, Marin suddenly had a new idea...

"Perhaps, we can send someone to pretend to be an envoy to influence this country. In this way, we don't need to send out a large army to conquer. At least, we don't need to..."

Marin thought so for a reason. The Aztec Empire had a large territory. It is easy to defeat the Aztec Empire alone, but long-term stationing afterwards is troublesome. Then, people will resist too.

For a powerful monarch, he is never afraid of being upright, but he is afraid of endless rebellion. For example, the powerful Qin Dynasty had just fallen from the Six Nations frontally, but in the end it fell into the hands of the Six Nations Rebel Army.

Marin doesn't think that the Aztecs, who don't even have steel weapons, will be able to defeat the North Sea State army, but now is really not the time!

Before defeating France, the North Sea country was not suitable for sending large-scale troops to the Americas. It is not only easy to leak secrets, but also easy to cause domestic emptiness. If France joins the German vassal state to take the nest, it will not be worth the loss.

Therefore, at least until the situation in Europe stabilizes, troops cannot be sent.

Originally, Marin planned to learn from Cortez and send a small number of troops to perform this task. However, Clive’s report gave Marin a reminder—maybe, he could use religious methods...

The so-called religious methods are naturally to use foolish means to pretend to be gods, and then influence the Aztec Empire and successfully obtain gold and silver...

Moreover, Marin is not a novice in this field, and his rank is relatively high. You know, he has long used Taylor, the Archbishop of the North Sea, to help him fool the soldiers and the people across the country. Now, churches in all parts of the Beihai Kingdom are full of the disciples and grandchildren of Taylor Fudge, who are working hard to fool people into believing in God, as well as... the children who are loyal to Marin and Marin...

Obviously, Taylor is the Grand Master, and Marin is the master of the Grand Master...

Therefore, Marin gave Kohler the task of choosing a disciple of Taylor who had a strong ability to fudge, a good language talent, and a less fanatical and firm belief. Of course, be reliable...

Then, the person will first learn the Aztec language, which must be Tenochtitlan accent. Once you have learned the language, you will pretend to be an envoy and go to Tenochtitlan to perform tasks...

Let me tell you, the novel app I'm using recently, [\\mi\\mi\\read\\app\\\\] Android and Apple phones support it!

Reliability is easy to understand, and it is easy to understand with strong ability and language talent. But Kohler was a little bit puzzled about his belief in not firmness.

You know, many big flickers, because of their too strong ability, flicker, not only fool others, but they are also fooled into. After telling a lie a thousand times, it becomes the truth. Huyou's words have been said thousands of times, and I believe a little bit...

Therefore, many of the disciples and grandchildren of Archbishop Taylor really fooled others, but they were fooled into. After all, if you pretend to be too similar and the atmosphere is too good, you will inevitably have some tricks.

There is another problem. Those big fools with too good acting skills and too strong business ability can't tell whether an intelligence chief like Kohler is really a fanatical believer in God...

In this regard, Marin has a way to distinguish:

"It's so simple. According to the rules, Catholic priests should not have women, nor should they be greedy for money. You only need to find out which Taylor's disciples and grandchildren like women and money, and you can find a large number of big huyou priests who are actually not firm in their beliefs! "

Kohler was right to think about it, but he suddenly thought of Marin’s father-in-law, Pope Julius II. People also love women and money, but they are also very superstitious...

Kohler politely pointed out...

Marin was right to think about it, but he was not incapable:

"This is a problem, let's go. Find a Taylor disciple and grandson who is capable but loves women and money, and then tentatively sends a spy to deliberately question the gods in front of him, to see if his reaction is fierce. The person who is sent to test, ask for one. It looks very fierce, and ordinary people can't afford that. If the other person is angry and defends the gods, then he is a fanatic. If you swallow your breath, you only care about your own safety... Available..."

...

Why did Marin choose the Fudge priest who is not firm in his beliefs? The reason is simple, he intends to learn Ricci!

Matteo Ricci was sent by the Holy See to China during the Ming Dynasty to preach, but his predecessors and companions ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ do not know how to work, only allow believers to believe in God, and do not allow sacrifices to heaven, ancestors and holes to touch. The bottom line of the Ming dynasty made it difficult to preach.

Therefore, the flexible and flexible Matteo Ricci put on Confucian clothes, respected the Han tradition, engaged in a combination of Chinese and Western, and the result was not bad. No, Xu Guangqi and other big guys were fooled in.

Of course, Matteo Ricci cannot say that he is not firm in his beliefs, but he is indeed very flexible.

But Marin’s mission was different from Ricci’s simple mission. Marin didn’t even want to spread Catholicism. At least, there are no missions yet.

He sent Taylor’s disciples and grandchildren to fool you, purely to fool the Aztecs to give him gold and silver. In order to cater to the Aztecs, Marin even planned to make the priest performing the task pretend to be the messenger of the gods believed by the Aztecs. Then, under the pretext of "the instructions of the gods", the Aztecs took the initiative to take out the gold and silver to Marin...Of course, it was a deal, not a free gift. Aztecs are not fools, and Bai Ge must not be happy. But, just ask them to trade, then there is no problem...

However, the pricing power lies with Marin. How to trade is not the final decision for Marin...
