Marlin is not a stingy person. He heard that everyone averaged more than 80 gold coins per person (the officer got more), and I felt sorry for everyone. As a result, he took out 30,000 gold coins again, and everyone got 100 gold coins.
In fact, the reason why this money goes down is also to appease the army. After all, the fact that this group of people followed them and captured 4,000 people is clear to everyone. Although, Marin could also make up lies to fool them. However, if you don't give the benefit that everyone is satisfied, maybe someone will think more. Once someone is unhappy and walks with news that is not good for Marin, it's over. Therefore, take out some money, let everyone rate it, first smash this bunch of soiled buns with money, they will be immersed in joy and have no energy to think wildly. After all, this group of mercenaries, most of whom came from serf families, rarely saw gold coins before ...
But Marin is also worried that this group of guys will get away if they get the money. So he had to do ideological work for everyone and tell them not to run around. Because it is dangerous for a person to carry 100 gold coins on the road and it is easy to be robbed.
At the same time, Marin promised to return to the country after the war and agree to leave with those who wanted to leave. This group of old men is not clear where the missing captives and horses went, and how much they sold. And the educated military officers who can roughly estimate the value were bought. Therefore, no one is in trouble.
This is also because they have no culture and don't know how to calculate. Otherwise, if we know that Marin received the huge benefit of 1.25 million gold coins, this group of people may be "paid" ...
As for how the money came, Marin had already thought about it, saying that it was a trophy that was obtained by the way when the French were captured. Even Marin insisted that the Venetian cooperate with them to complete the ambush against the French. Although, it seems that everyone did not see the presence of the Venetian army. But the leader of Marin said so, and the other four company captains also said so, so that the soldiers believed. In their opinion, the Venetian was out of their sight and cooperated with everyone to complete the ambush ...
In the days that followed, Marin used these two lies every day to brainwash everyone. The lie was told 100 times, and everyone believed it, let alone Marin said dozens of times every day. Even Marin himself almost believed the lies he had made up and was brainwashed by himself ...
Alas, something unpleasant happened in the middle. For example, the knights sent by the three emperors and counts did not seem to meet the profit of 30,000 gold coins. They found Marin privately and asked for more benefits.
Marin was also worried that they said that he had missed it, but Marin had a mind when he traded with the Venetian before. For example, when communicating with these three guys in private, Marin lied that the captives and weapon armor were sold at low prices. In this regard, the three have no doubt. Because stolen goods are usually sold at very low prices. However, they did not know because the "goods" were so significant that the Venetians were desperate to obtain them, and they did not lower the price too much. Therefore, the three people's valuation of "goods" only looked like three or four hundred thousand gold coins. Because this is also the tradition of selling stolen goods by medieval thieves. Moreover, they are only a little cultural martial arts. They can't understand the strategic value of this batch of goods. They only treat them as ordinary thieves ...
安 In order to appease the three, Marin "gritted his teeth" and added 10,000 gold to each of them. So all three were satisfied. After all, the three of them earned a total of 120,000 gold coins. Combining their own estimates of the "total value" of the three or four hundred thousand gold coins, they also think that Marin is more generous. Because, Marin has taken out 130,000 gold coins evenly. Counting the 120,000 gold coins they got, Marin himself, they estimate that they can only get tens of thousands of gold coins, up to no more than 100,000. But Marin was the largest officer in the operation, and they could not ask for more if they were assigned "this point." As a result, the hidden dangers in the army were eliminated after "second division of the loot."
After dividing the stolen goods, Marin planned to rush back to the imperial army station ...
带着 He took a huge team of 6,000 people and slowly moved towards the station of Count Alfred. At the same time, after hearing about the outbreak of war in Italy, Emperor Maximilian I hurriedly rushed to Italy from Worms convened by the Imperial Parliament.
Maximilian I was a visionary. He knew very well that if France were to become strong, then the Holy Roman Empire, as a neighbor, would surely become the target of the French. Especially the Principality of Burgundy under his control will inevitably become the target of the French.
Therefore, his idea is to unite the Italians and completely defeat the French army, it is best to seize Charles VIII. In this way, the arrogance of the French can be eliminated, and the French can be weakened. For example, Charles VIII can be exchanged for a large amount of ransom. It can even be exchanged for the Principality of Burgundy taken by the French.
In addition, the kingdom of Naples had better be taken from the French. If you get it, it's perfect ... Maximilian I hurried on the road, YY arrived ...
In short, the strategic goal of Maximilian I was to drive the French out of Italy and weaken France as much as possible ...
不久 Shortly after he reached the station of Count Alfred, Marin's large forces also returned to the station ...
"Stop coming!" The guard in charge of the Shenluo army saw five or six thousand people coming to the imperial army station, and was shocked, hurriedly shouted, and warned the inside of the camp. And Maximilian I thought that the French came to attack, probably knowing that he was here ...
But after the team approached, everyone was relieved. Because Marin's people are too distinctive-they all wear black cross white vests ...
"No, isn't there just over 1,000 people in the Black Cross Square, why are there three or four thousand people wearing black cross vests in this group?" Count Alfred standing on the tower and observing was a little confused.
"Be vigilant first, and ask questions when you are near."
When the team arrived at the camp, Marinze stepped forward and spoke to Count Alfred on the high wall:
"Master, I'm back! Yeah, Her Majesty the Emperor is there? We've seen His Majesty the Emperor!" Marin hurried off the horse, took off his hat, and bowed to Maximilian I.
"Master Marin, what is going on? Why are there so many people behind you?" Count Alfred asked cautiously.
"This, it's very simple. I temporarily hired 1,000 mercenaries in Italy, and took them with about 2,000 Venetian soldiers to ambush the French king's army and captured 2000 French captives ..."
什么 "What? Didn't you say that the coalition had a draw with the French army in the battle of Fornovo?" Emperor Maximilian I asked in confusion. He was informed that the French were repelled at the battle of Fornovo. But the emperor knew better that the Italians were killed and injured 2,000, and the French were killed and injured 1,000. Obviously, the Italians are bragging, and they are at best tied with the French.
"Oh, that's true, but after we merged a Venetian army, we ambushed the retreating French army south of Piacenza, captured 2000 French knight captives, but unfortunately let Charles VIII go ... Marin's tone was full of pity.
It was this tone that made Maximilian I take a breath. Arrest the king, what a big deal? In particular, Charles VIII was accompanied by 8,000 French knights. He knew that it was quite difficult, at least, the emperor asked himself that he couldn't do it.
Alas, the knight in front of him was so talkative. However, the captives they held, the thousands of war horses, and the plate armor on a row of carts showed that this was true. Because, Marin's origin is very clear. This poor knight cannot have so many warhorses and armors. Even in the case of looting by Italian civilian soldiers, they can only grab money, not war horses and armors ...
The emperor then ordered Marin in. As for the others, the emperor was cautious and let them temporarily camp outside the camp.
"Hurry up and talk about what's going on?"
Marin ambush the French, because there is no external publicity, everyone basically does not know the situation.
Alas, Marin propagated the ambush with jealousy. The other plots are fine, but Marin added something. For example, he encountered Venice's 2000 troops on his way south. Their commander Pasiano (a real person who also came to the Empire camp with the team) seemed to admire Marin, went on the road with him, and cooperated with Marin to complete the beautiful ambush-this In order to respect Marin's merit, the Governor of Venice specifically recognized Marin as the head ...
什么 "What? 4,000 French knights were captured, and what about the other 2,000?" The emperor stood up in excitement. This is absolutely a big thing. Captive 4000 French knights, generally only tens of thousands of troops can do it. In Marin's mouth, they only used a few thousand people.
"Being taken away by the Venetian, we said before the war, the trophies were evenly divided ..." Marin said innocently.
"Why are you so many people?"
"Oh, that was a temporary call. In addition, 1,000 people were lent to me by the Venetians, who were under the command of the Pasiano Regiment. After the captives returned, the Pasiano Regiment had to take them back to Venice. What about ... "Marin and Agostino Barbarigo discussed, and Pasiano will represent Venice and bring back the 1,000 Italian farmers trained in the queue, let them pretend to be heroes, and avoid the lies being broken .
"What are the combat effectiveness of these Italian soldiers?" The emperor was also a little tempted, thinking that those Italians were very powerful, otherwise how to defeat the French ...
"Your Majesty, IMHO, the fighting power of the Italians cannot keep up with the Germans ..."
"Did you not defeat the French 8000 Cavaliers?"
"Your Majesty, we were a sneak attack! It was a night attack! The French were anxious to run away. We ambushed halfway and smashed down the hill with stones, killing a lot of French people. Otherwise, if it was on flat ground, maybe I would have been caught The French killed ... "
"Is this ... OK?"
"Yes, this is my Eastern tactics taught by my teacher!" Einstein came out and carried the pot again ...
"Oriental? That great empire?"
"Yes, the ancient military tactics of that mighty Eastern Empire."
"So powerful?" Maximilian I was very tempted.
His Majesty, "Your Majesty, it's not too bad. Mainly, the timing is too coincidental. The French ran away in the middle of the night and happened to hit the minister's ambush ... After all, in the middle of the night, they could hardly detect the minister's ambush ..."
"This is also ..." Maximilian I was not someone who did not understand the military ~ www.novelhall.com ~ He knew that the French army who had fled in the middle of the night did fall into the blood mold for eight lives before he could be seen by this little knight , Seized the loophole and hit a beautiful ambush. On another occasion, the French will never be so unlucky. It might even kill Marin, as the Cavaliers said ...
但是 "But how did you know that the French would run away from you?" Maximilian I was not a fool and felt the problem.
"Uh ... Actually ... Chen is not sure. He just felt that the French would not fight. So he just laid an ambush. I thought the French would retreat the next day. I didn't expect to come in the middle of the night. But the French were more hasty, and, apparently scared by our ambush, they defeated ... "Marin specifically pointed out that this was a coincidence in order to describe reasonably. Otherwise, he couldn't explain how he knew the French would run away in the middle of the night ...
这 "This ... Marin Knight ... your luck ... really bad ..." Maximilian I opened his mouth wide and wanted to say, but didn't know what to say. As for Marin's anticipation of the Frenchman fleeing in the middle of the night, Maximilian I did not believe it. Because Marin happened to ambush to the French, which makes it more reasonable ...
"His Majesty, the harvest of this minister is the boss. Among the 2,000 captives, there are one Earl of France, six Barons, and two 200 Cavaliers. The others are territoryless knights, but they are also French royal knights ... Marin didn't want the emperor to struggle with this question that he couldn't answer, so he began to shift the subject.

Even in the case of looting by Italian civilian soldiers, they can only grab money, not war horses and armors ...The emperor then ordered Marin in. As for the others, the emperor was cautious and let them temporarily camp outside the camp."Hurry up and talk about what's going on?"Marin ambush the French, because there is no external publicity, everyone basically does not know the situation.Alas, Marin propagated the ambush with jealousy. The other plots are fine, but Marin added something. For example, he encountered Venice's 2000 troops on his way south. Their commander Pasiano a real person who also came to the Empire camp with the team seemed to admire Marin, went on the road with him, and cooperated with Marin to complete the beautiful ambush-this In order to respect Marin's merit, the Governor of Venice specifically recognized Marin as the head ... "What? 4,000 French knights were captured, and what about the other 2,000?" The emperor stood up in excitement. This is absolutely a big thing. Captive 4000 French knights, generally only tens of thousands of troops can do it. In Marin's mouth, they only used a few thousand people."Being taken away by the Venetian, we said before the war, the trophies were evenly divided ..." Marin said innocently."Why are you so many people?""Oh, that was a temporary call. In addition, 1,000 people were lent to me by the Venetians, who were under the command of the Pasiano Regiment. After the captives returned, the Pasiano Regiment had to take them back to Venice. What about ... "Marin and Agostino Barbarigo discussed, and Pasiano will represent Venice and bring back the 1,000 Italian farmers trained in the queue, let them pretend to be heroes, and avoid the lies being broken ."What are the combat effectiveness of these Italian soldiers?" The emperor was also a little tempted, thinking that those Italians were very powerful, otherwise how to defeat the French ..."Your Majesty, IMHO, the fighting power of the Italians cannot keep up with the Germans ...""Did you not defeat the French 8000 Cavaliers?""Your Majesty, we were a sneak attack! It was a night attack! The French were anxious to run away. We ambushed halfway and smashed down the hill with stones, killing a lot of French people. Otherwise, if it was on flat ground, maybe I would have been caught The French killed ... ""Is this ... OK?""Yes, this is my Eastern tactics taught by my teacher!" Einstein came out and carried the pot again ..."Oriental? That great empire?""Yes, the ancient military tactics of that mighty Eastern Empire.""So powerful?" Maximilian I was very tempted.His Majesty, "Your Majesty, it's not too bad. Mainly, the timing is too coincidental. The French ran away in the middle of the night and happened to hit the minister's ambush ... After all, in the middle of the night, they could hardly detect the minister's ambush ...""This is also ..." Maximilian I was not someone who did not understand the military ~ www.novelhall.com ~ He knew that the French army who had fled in the middle of the night did fall into the blood mold for eight lives before he could be seen by this little knight , Seized the loophole and hit a beautiful ambush. On another occasion, the French will never be so unlucky. It might even kill Marin, as the Cavaliers said ... "But how did you know that the French would run away from you?" Maximilian I was not a fool and felt the problem."Uh ... Actually ... Chen is not sure. He just felt that the French would not fight. So he just laid an ambush. I thought the French would retreat the next day. I didn't expect to come in the middle of the night. But the French were more hasty, and, apparently scared by our ambush, they defeated ... "Marin specifically pointed out that this was a coincidence in order to describe reasonably. Otherwise, he couldn't explain how he knew the French would run away in the middle of the night ... "This ... Marin Knight ... your luck ... really bad ..." Maximilian I opened his mouth wide and wanted to say, but didn't know what to say. As for Marin's anticipation of the Frenchman fleeing in the middle of the night, Maximilian I did not believe it. Because Marin happened to ambush to the French, which makes it more reasonable ..."His Majesty, the harvest of this minister is the boss. Among the 2,000 captives, there are one Earl of France, six Barons, and two 200 Cavaliers. The others are territoryless knights, but they are also French royal knights ... Marin didn't want the emperor to struggle with this question that he couldn't answer, so he began to shift the subject."Count ... did you catch the count?"
