Chapter 2059 Young version of the black-shirt knight
Nearly 25 million pounds of papermaking potential are used to make kraft paper every year, which seems to be a waste. After all, Beihai Country's current industrial production capacity does not use so much packaging paper. It can even be said that Beihai Country's industry has not really started yet.
However, these potentials cannot be wasted. So, Marin thought about it and replied to Tara. Not only did he issue a reward (Tara also had a reward), but he also gave a task - to study the use of sugar cane bagasse to make light straw paper.
As for straw paper, everyone knows it, it is used to wipe PP. In Europe, paper is expensive and tight. Therefore, when people go to the toilet, they also use wood chips. However, when using wood chips, they still use it repeatedly, and even share... Therefore, there are many people who have hemorrhoids in ancient times, and there is even a saying that "nine out of ten people have hemorrhoids". It is said that Zheng Jing, the son of the great hero Zheng Chenggong, died of hemorrhoids and suffered from hemorrhoids. After his death, the Zheng family army quickly fell and surrendered to the Qing Dynasty... It can also be said that Kang Mazi unified Taidao by hemorrhoids. Of course, this is indispensable for the help of Feng Xifan and other two five-year-olds...
For the safety of the chrysanthemum tribe, Malin thought it would be better to produce straw paper in large quantities. It would be a waste to make straw paper with wooden pulp. Of course, Malin's family and the nobles of Beihai are currently using this paper as toilet paper. After all, no one wants to have hemorrhoids. You can imagine that if a general riding a horse has hemorrhoids, it will be a waste of life and can't even ride a horse...
Therefore, Marin gave Tara a dead order - he had to make soft and unharmed straw paper as soon as possible. He packed it in a kraft paper bag, and after production, he would be transported back to China by ship.
After writing the reply, Marin came to the conference room with kraft paper made from sugar cane bagasse, so that his controversial subordinates could take a look.
When everyone saw the sturdy kraft paper, they stopped talking. Then, they learned that the Cuban sugarcane land had expanded to 100,000 mu, and the annual output of 40 million pounds of sugar sugar was expected to produce 40 million pounds. You should know that when the sugarcane land was only 10,000 mu, they produced 4 million pounds of sugar sugar. They didn’t think anything was there. But when it increased to 40 million pounds, everyone was shocked - no wonder Marin had the confidence to distribute sugar-added biscuits to the soldiers!
However, in normal times, the ministers still think it is better not to be so extravagant. Therefore, the final resolution is to provide sugar-added biscuits to the soldiers during wartime and high-intensity drills. Other times, only ordinary compressed biscuits are provided. Or simply eat black bread. After all, compressed biscuits are only used during marches and wars.
In addition to the kraft paper made from sugar cane bagasse, Marin also happily took out the authentic spirit made from sugar cane - caramel-flavored rum!
The civil servants didn't think anything was there, but the military generals loved the authentic caramel-flavored rum. Then, the officials present were divided into two factions - the civil servants supported the low-degree Erguotou with maple syrup, which was the royal salute; while the military generals supported the authentic caramel-flavored rum...
Afterwards, the two factions started arguing like the sweet party and the salty party of Tofu Brain. Fortunately, both sides were more restrained and did not take action...
However, the proposal to expand sugarcane planting was unanimously approved. However, the starting points of civil servants and military generals are different - civil servants think that making kraft paper in sugarcane bagasse is good for preservation of materials; while military generals simply like caramel-flavored strong rum...
Just in time, because they were preparing to accept immigration from the Grand Principal of Moscow, the Beihai Kingdom stopped making wine. The generals were obviously unhappy with the suspension of production of spirits. Although the reserves of spirits are still sufficient for the time being, they may not be short of spirits one day. Therefore, having a new source of spirits production is also a spiritual comfort for them, and they will not feel the crisis of "no spirits will be drunk in the future".
Beihai Kingdom started with mercenaries, and Marin had bloodshed the old aristocratic forces. Therefore, in Beihai Kingdom, the grassroots of military generals were dominant. The civil servant group was relatively weak. Therefore, after learning that Cuba could produce a large amount of rum, at the strong request of the military general group, Marin formulated a plan to expand the area of Cuba's sugarcane planting to more than 500,000 mu and use a large amount of sugarcane to brew rum.
In fact, Marin didn't realize that his plan was still conservative. Because he allocated 100,000 to the Cuban colonies who had originally immigrated to the North American continent. As a result, these 100,000 Taino people, plus the original tens of thousands of immigrants and black slaves, opened up more than 1 million acres of sugarcane land in Cuba. Then, countless sugar and rum were produced.
...
After unifying the thoughts of his subordinates, the most important thing for Marin was to start training. In addition to the dragoons formed by the three thousand musketeers, Marin also mobilized 5,000 Cossack cavalry and 2,000 black-shirt knights for joint training.
These 2000 black-shirt knights are not the 2000 black-shirt knights under Steindorf, but are the descendants of the 2000 old black-shirt knights.
Most of the 2,000 black-shirted knights of Steindorf's Third Legion are now in middle age. Their tactical level is naturally top-notch. However, their physical fitness and endurance inevitably decline a lot.
This long-distance raid has a range of more than 2,500 kilometers. It seems that the intensity of a group of middle-aged uncles is too high for them. Therefore, we can only choose the younger generation and recover quickly, and the requirement is not to exceed 30 years old.
Finally, Steindorf, the commander of the legion, came up with a move - to let the 2,000 black-shirted knights come to the juniors!
These black-shirt knights are generally over 40 years old. Many of them have their sons around 20 years old. Even if their sons are still young, some nephews are over 20 years old, which is the year of fighting.
Moreover, because they are well-fed and their hometowns are very poor, their families and even their brothers have basically moved to Beihai Country. Moreover, they all live near their residence.
As children or nephews, these old black-shirt knights must have taught them their own combat skills. Therefore, when they heard that Marin asked to train a group of young black-shirt knights, the younger generations of these black-shirt knights were pulled out and sent to Marin.
These veterans who have been with Marin for a long time know one thing well - it is very stable to fight with Marin!
Why? It’s not how brave and good at fighting, but Marin is... It’s very stable... This is the official statement...
Well, to put it another way, I'm afraid of death...
People who are afraid of death like to leave billions of hands when fighting, and make complete preparations before the war. It is difficult to defeat and die if you fight with such people...
Moreover, these veterans knew very well that the Beihai Kingdom had kept too many secrets of military technology. Once it was taken out during the war, unfamiliar opponents would definitely suffer a great loss!
Therefore, if you follow such a monarch to fight, you will not have to worry about your life or military achievements!
After hearing about such a good thing, these veterans broke their heads and wanted to send their nephews to Malin, so that they could make a military career.
Then, the 2000 young version of the black-shirted Knight was sent to Marin at an extremely fast speed. What even made Marin feel exaggerated was that these children even prepared their own war horses and chain armor...
Except for the guns strictly controlled by the Beihai State Law, the children directly prepared war horses and chain mails. At that time, Marin just gave them carbines and ordinary riding horses to transfer.
In fact, although the sons and nephews of these old black-shirt knights do not own military clockwork ignition carbines, they often mingle in the military camps and often go to the Third Legion shooting range to train in the name of "Third Legion Preparatory Army". They use clockwork ignition carbines on horseback and can also have a good hit rate while riding a horse, saving the trouble of training.
So, Marin picked up 2,000 young black-shirt knights in one go. Their only disadvantage is probably that they lack practical experience. So Marin took them to the Beihai Kingdom, with the Dragoons and Cossacks, for long-distance training.
