Chapter 1922 Arrangement
To be honest, among the four brothers Suha, Barhu, Yadan and Muren, Malin is the most optimistic about Muren. Because Muren is the smartest and loves learning the most.
However, it was precisely because he was most optimistic that Marin was unwilling to let him go back to be Sauron Khan. Muren, the child of Sauron Savage, began to learn German culture after coming to Beihai Kingdom. Among the four brothers, Muren knew German and could also write German. The other three brothers, including Bai Geri, could only speak some simple Chinese. These Chinese were learned from the court doctor Bartel.
Both Morigen and Bater understand Chinese, and they are also Mongolians. The Soren people have a lot of dealing with the Korqin tribe of Mongolia, so they naturally understand Mongolian and Jurchen. In addition, Bater is enthusiastic. When he sees the fellow villager Soren who understands Mongolian, he is also willing to communicate with them and teach them Chinese. As for Morigen, he is too lazy to pay attention to these Soren barbarians...
Because someone took the initiative to teach, all the five Saurons learned a lot of Chinese. However, Mu Ren often asked Batel for advice by gestures and asking others, and actually learned German by himself. Although he was stuttering, he might have taught himself this, which was surprising enough.
Obviously, Mu Ren's IQ is not low, or very high. But because of his high IQ, Marin is not willing to let him go back to be Sauron Khan.
Such a smart person can easily get out of control after he goes back. Even if he doesn't get out of control, he will make small moves privately, reducing the control of the North Sea country over the Sauron region.
Suha is different. This honest boss is stupid, obedient, and hardworking, and is an excellent puppet Khan.
Moreover, he is the boss of the four, with the highest prestige, and Mu Ren has no intention of competing with him. After confirming Suhasoren's future status as Khan, Marin began to further arrange how to control the foreign Northeast region...
"Suha, look, this is Nuergan City. I plan to send 500 troops to escort you to occupy the city first. Then, I will recruit two thousand civilians from Taiwan, bringing cement and bamboo to help you strengthen the city with bamboo reinforced concrete, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack..."
"Shan, what is bamboo reinforced concrete?" Su Ha asked honestly.
Marin waved his hand:
"It's hard to explain this to you clearly. Go and see, Orich's wall is concrete..."
"Oh, now I understand, that's almost the same as a stone... But why do you need concrete? Just just mine stones to repair the city?" Suha said in confusion.
Marin rolled her eyes and said:
"It doesn't take time and labor to mine stones? There are also many stonemasons that need to polish stones into stones. How can I send so many stonemasons to you? You just need to know that cement can repair cities very quickly."
Marin plans to send Suha back in a few days, because it only takes three months to go to Taiwan from Panama, which is much faster. Therefore, you can get there in a few months.
Then, in April and May next year, after the northeast and Tatar Strait thaw thawed, Kong Tai sent a fleet to escort Suha and 500 musketeers, as well as migrant workers and pruning city supplies to the north, arrive at the mouth of Heilongjiang, occupy and rebuild Nuergan City.
Then, using Nuergan City as a trading base, we began to purchase mink fur. We used wool fabrics, salt, iron and other scarce supplies to exchange mink fur with the locals.
At present, the residents near Nuergan City are mainly Qilie, which is what the Russians later generations call the Nevhe people. At present, they are still very strong and widely distributed in the lower reaches of Heilongjiang. However, after the Russians came, they massacred them in various ways and deliberately spread diseases. In later generations, there were only four or five thousand people left in the Nevhe people, which was much less than this era. It can be seen how miserable the locals were after the foreign northeast was occupied by the Russians.
However, Kong Tai's men are all from the south, so it will definitely be difficult to adapt to the cold climate of the extreme north. Therefore, they are stationed for a maximum of one year. After a year, Suha would be better off recruiting a team of the Sorens. Moreover, it is also possible to recruit nearby Qili and the savage Jurchens in the south.
But at the beginning, in order to ensure Suha's safety, it is definitely best to recruit the Sorens of Suha's own tribe. Only when the Sorens occupy the dominant position can the Suha's leader be safe. Otherwise, he will easily be overthrown by the charming and Jurchens.
However, it is more than 2,000 kilometers to the Daxinganling area from Nuergan City along Heilongjiang. It is also a difficult problem to recruit Solon warriors in Daxinganling.
"Well, two or three thousand miles..." After thinking for a long time, Marin decided to send 5 galleys back for Suha to use.
Of course, it is a sailboat without diesel engines. After all, diesel is very scarce now, and it is difficult to use it for diesel engines. Moreover, mechanics who know how to maintain diesel engines are the most precious. Marin is reluctant to accompany Suha to a bitter and cold place like the Northeast.
Moreover, the sailboats are also very suitable for inland sailing on Heilongjiang. Marin plans to buy five galleys and a group of Russian paddlers from Italy. Those Russians are slaves bought by Venetian merchants and Geneian merchants from the Crimean Khanate. Moreover, most of them have been castrated, very honest and obedient, and strong. Most of them are adapted to the bitter and cold climate in the northeast. After all, the hometown of the Russians is also a bitter and cold place.
Then, on these five galleys, Marin equipped a musketeer and installed a few small franc cannons, which was enough to walk across Heilongjiang. The birch bark boats of the locals could knock over a large area of one or two hundred tons of galleys, not to mention the muskets and franc cannons on the ship.
Then, these five galleys will escort Suha to Daxinganling to recruit Soren Warriors. According to what Marin knows, ordinary galleys that have not been converted into Calais ships will have an average speed of about 4.5 knots during long voyages, which is 8.33 kilometers per hour, equivalent to 16.66 miles. From Nurgan City to Mohe north of Daxinganling, there are about 2,800 kilometers. At the speed of galleys, it takes about 336 hours, equivalent to 14 days. However, galleys are driven by manpower after all, and paddlers row 10 hours a day is the limit. Therefore, it takes about one-way one month, and two or three months to go back and forth.
Marin calculated that if the sailboat could arrive in Keelung early, it would still be time to go north and go to the Greater Khingan Mountains. However, if the sailboat had to go to the Far East, it would have to bypass the South American region first. Therefore, it might not have been possible to arrive within the specified time that year.
So, in the first year, Marin's only choice was to buy several inland boats in the Ming Dynasty and escort Suha back to Daxinganling to recruit warriors of the same clan.
Only when Suha has the protection of the warriors of the same clan, the subsequent actions can be carried out one after another. Then, Marin will send him civilians and military officers to help him train the Soron Warriors.
For the fierce Soren Warriors, their physical fitness is strong enough. Moreover, they are also very savage and brave. Therefore, there is no need to be trained in this regard. For Soren Warriors, what they need to train the most is discipline and tactics. With the already strong soldiers, with discipline and tactics and advanced weapons and equipment, their combat effectiveness will definitely increase by a factor of a factor.
The reason why Nurhaci was able to defeat the troops of tens of thousands of Ula tribes with 3,000 Eight Banners soldiers was not that the Jianzhou Jurchens were more brave than the Haixi Jurchens, but that the same brave men and horses were both sides. Nurhaci's Eight Banners soldiers had discipline and battle formations, and they were also equipped with a large amount of cotton armor and the Central Plains iron weapons purchased from Shanxi merchants, which was naturally much more powerful than the Ula tribe of the Haixi Jurchens.
Marin sent officers to train Soren Warriors, who were already braver than the Jurchens, with modern discipline and tactics, and then distributed them cotton armor and steel weapons to them. The combat effectiveness would not be overwhelming?
Cotton armor is easy to use in the Ming Dynasty. Now it is the middle of the Ming Dynasty. Except for the border troops, the garrisons in other places have long been decayed. Kong Tai was willing to spend money, he could even buy cotton armor in the Ming army-style style. Or, he could buy a group of craftsmen and build cotton armor by himself.
After thinking about it, Ma Lin felt that the number was needed, so he still bought a group of military craftsmen from the Ming army and went to Taiwan to help make cotton armor.
At that time, the Soron soldiers under Suha not only received modern military training, but also wore cotton armor, holding steel knives and recurve bows made by the Beihai Kingdom, and would be strange if they did not drive other forces in the Northeast...
