Chapter 592: Black Forest Recruitment
The effect of rye Erguotou was gratifying. After Marin summoned the ministers of culture and martial arts, he went directly to the rye Erguotou at about 40 degrees.
Civilians do not like this kind of spirits very much, and they don't seem to like it. However, those vulgar officers liked this kind of spirits very much. According to the elder Mr. Kahn-"The soldiers must like this strong spirit". Moreover, this kind of liquor doesn't drink yet ...
Although civil servants do not like to drink, Marin is eager to know the effect, so he desperately persuaded him to drink. As a traverser who is used to drinking 56-degree Erguotou in later generations, Marin is still very comfortable with this kind of spirits. Moreover, he, the chicken thief, added some boiled water to the wine he drank to dilute the degree to about 20 degrees.
Just like this, Marin used a 20-degree weakened version of rye Erguotou to toast his officers and soldiers. In the face of the boss's toast, the civil servants were no longer happy and had to do it. And the generals, there is nothing unhappy, Kahn's fool, even more happy.
Then, after a few patrols, the civil servants took the lead on the street, lying down one after another, and a few became crazy. However, the drunken civil servant was unlucky and was knocked out by Uncle Kahn with a swift hand knife ...
Generals continue to drink, but they are no better than civilians. Then they lie down one by one. There are also drunken people who are still hit by the violent Kahn knife on the back of the neck ...
Finally, only zuòbì's Marin and Kahn were still standing. But at this time, Marin was actually a bit drunk. Seeing that Kahn's animal still didn't care, Marin gave up himself ...
The test results are gratifying. Marin has concluded through testing that most people can be put down by rye Erguotou ...
The next day, Marin also made an enhanced version of Erguotou — Erguotou with honey ...
After, he took the brothers to drink again. Then, those generals liked it very much. Rye Erguotou with honey, that is the legendary honey wine (in the legend, the heroic hall of the Nordic supreme **** Odin, those ancient Germanic heroic warriors fight in the day and drink honey in the evening) ... … Then this group of fools didn't use Marin to persuade the wine, and they immediately drank it one after another. Only Bacchus Kahn, and Schwartz with better self-control, did not fall. Kahn is because he is not drunk, and Schwartz is because Marin did not force drink, he controlled himself not to drink too much ...
With this experiment, Marin finally firmed his mind-rye Erguotou added honey, and drunk the indigenous people ...
However, the price of honey is very high, and Marin intends to use sucrose instead of honey in the future. However, at this stage, what makes Marin cry is that the prices of honey and sucrose are similar in the European market. Even the price of sucrose is even higher. Probably, because honey can be produced locally, and sucrose can only be produced in southern Europe ...
Marin tried it and added brown sugar to the rye Erguotou, it seems that the effect is also good. Anyway, for Europeans of this era, no matter what sucrose is unhealthy, nobles rarely eat sugar. Everyone likes the sweetness. As for the indigenous people, it is even more so ...
Marin's plan is to let his men bring wine to the indigenous people. However, all his men drank low-alcohol mixed with water, while the indigenous people drank genuine spirits. Just as he zuòbì dealt with his generals, he was not easy to get drunk, but he was easy to get drunk. After getting drunk, let them adjust ...
……
Of course, these are Huairou's means. If Huairou's method fails, it also requires fighting. Therefore, Marin still needs strong military strength.
But the problem is that on the plains, tens of thousands of troops under Marin are invincible. But in the jungle, the number of troops is useless. There are no people familiar with the jungle, and many people can only be hit by the cold arrows and traps of the enemy.
However, the areas that Marin will conquer next, whether it is the Cuban island or the east coast of North America, and the future foothold in Daming, Taiwan Island, are all densely covered with jungle. If you want to conquer these areas, you must train an elite army that adapts to jungle warfare.
Otherwise, we can only learn the British way to colonize North America-by slowly cutting down the trees, we moved forward into the jungle. But this method was very passive. In the early days, the British colonized the east coast of North America and had to cut down trees and then build castles. Then, it was shrinking in the castle, waiting for the Indians in the jungle to sneak attack ... very passive ...
If there is an army proficient in jungle operations, then they can successfully clear up the powerful Indian tribes such as the Iroquois Alliance and march inland early.
In fact, in the 17th century, the British colonization was limited to establishing a foothold near the estuary on the east coast, and could not go deeper. It was not until later that the number of immigrants was over one million. The large number of militiamen spontaneously formed by the immigrants gradually defeated the Indians.
However, this also brought about a very serious problem-the habit of Americans holding guns began at that time. And it was those militiamen who were used to fighting the Indians who finally overthrew the British colonists. Even the quick-loading method of muskets wrapped in greased rags and buckskin was also invented by the militia of the North American colonies.
The strong force of the local colonies eventually led to the emergence of rebellious forces. Therefore, Marin ’s intention is to limit the colony ’s own force in the future. Even local hunters are only allowed to have a backward arson gun, or bow and arrow, and individuals are never allowed to own advanced wǔqì such as flintlocks and clockwork firearms, so as to maintain the advantages of guānfāng over civilian equipment and avoid colonial independence .
Moreover, with the jungle combat troops, the colonial army can take the initiative to attack and clean up the Indians hiding in the jungle. In that way, there is no need for the colonial site to form militia to defend itself. In this way, the people of the colony did not have a large number of reasons for holding guns.
Right now, Marin only has 300 gunmen from the Black Forest hunters and 300 swordsmen from the Black Forest residents.
Such armed forces, because of the advantages of equipment, can certainly defeat a tribe. However, there are many tribes on the east coast of North America. Do you expect all 600 people to be swept away?
Not to mention the east coast of North America, that is, those Taino tribes in the jungle on the island of Cuba, these 600 people have no time to clean up. After all, they cannot divide troops. Otherwise, there is not enough strength to crush the opponent. With this team, it is difficult to clean up the indigenous tribes on the entire Cuban island in a short time.
Therefore, after thinking over and over again, Marin decided to let Kohler send people to the Black Forest, recruiting those strong hunters to serve as soldiers, and let them deal with the indigenous people hiding in the jungle-the Tainos in Cuba, the Indians on the east coast of North America People, and the alpine people on Taiwan Island ...
Right now, the Black Forest is not the Black Forest of later generations. In later generations, because of the explosion of the German population, many forests have actually been reclaimed into farmland. The last thing left is mainly the Black Forest in the mountains. But even so, by the 21st century, the total area of the Black Forest had reached about 6,000 square kilometers.
And now, because Germany has a population of only a few million people, it is not as exaggerated as 80 million in the future. ~ Www.wuxiaspot.com ~ leads to many plain areas, which also belong to the Black Forest. So, now the Black Forest,
The estimated area exceeds 10,000 square kilometers. In the jungle, avoid a large number of mountain people who escaped the oppression and exploitation of the nobles. They mainly live by hunting, but they dare not easily enter the town chūshòu prey, so life is more difficult.
The conditions for Marin's opening are-if any young man with rich jungle hunting experience joins the army if he wishes, the daily salary is as high as 5 Finney, which is 25 times that of ordinary people ...
As long as they can recruit thousands of hunters from the Black Forest, Marin can form several (or even a dozen) colonial army teams, go deep into the jungle, and enter those indigenous peoples.
Among them, those who are not afraid of heat are sent to Cuba Island and Taiwan Island. If you are afraid of heat, you can stay in the temperate zone on the east coast of North America and deal with the Indians there ...
These jungle hunters in the Black Forest use rich forest survival and hunting experience. From them, the Indians living in the jungle are hard to resist. After all, regardless of tactics or equipment, those indigenous people are at an absolute disadvantage, coupled with the drag of the old, weak and sick, it is difficult to think about failure ...
Moreover, Marin intends to let those experienced hunters bring some soldiers from the plains as apprentices, and teach them the skills of jungle survival and hunting, so that more soldiers can fight against the jungle Indians. experience. Only when there are more such talents can Marin use the fastest speed to conquer the dense and pristine jungle on the east coast of North America and seize more fertile and fertile land ...
