Chapter 235: Woolf Esbrand

Woolf Esbrand has followed Marin to East Friesland for half a year. During these six months, he spent most of his time in the army, studying the Marin Phalanx and East Friesland. Military training methods.

During the holidays, Woolf Esbrand also rode around in East Friesland. Except for the period of the autumn harvest, most of the soldiers of the whole army were sent to the border to protect the security. At other times, as long as the holiday, Woolf. After all, he was once the leader of the military and political affairs in the Dietmarschen area.

But after turning down, Woolf Esbrand was taken aback. Because, he found that the life of the people of East Friesland was too good ...

Although it is said that the people of East Frisian may eat very little meat. However, ordinary East Frisians, even the lowest-level serfs, can usually eat good brown bread. It's not a kind of black loaf that hasn't been fermented and is mixed with a lot of wood chips, mud and stones, but it's a softer loaf. This kind of dark bread can only be eaten by rich people in a good family in Dietmarschen. But in East Friesland, serfs usually eat soft brown bread. How can you not surprise Woolf Esbrand?

In fact, the black bread eaten by the serfs was not pure black bread, but it was also mixed with some wild vegetables and grass bran. However, these two additives do not affect the softness of the bread. Moreover, these breads are fully fermented, so they are relatively soft. The taste of straw bran is actually similar to wheat bran. During this period, Europeans made dark bread, mostly with wheat bran. So, adding a little straw bran, although coarser than flour, is not too much to eat. Moreover, even grass bran is digestible, unlike stones and mud, which cannot be digested.

In addition, in East Friesland, near the residence of each manor, Marin divided some "reserved land". These reserved plots are used for farmers to grow vegetables, and all the grown vegetables are for human consumption in the manor.

Of course, in the vicinity of each city, Marin will also arrange a few specific estates, all of which will grow vegetables to meet the needs of the city. Fortunately, there are not many cities and few urban residents, so it is easy to meet the needs.

In addition, because East Friesland is a coastal country with many fishermen, naturally there are many salted fish. In order to take care of fishermen, Marin also implemented the policy of "food for salted fish". With the equivalent of rye, a large amount of salted fish was exchanged with the fishermen, and then distributed to various estates as the main meat of the serf.

The cost of salted fish is low, but the nutrition is no worse than meat. Therefore, salted fish became the main source of meat for the poor in East Frisian Lambert. Basically, ordinary serf families can distribute salted fish every week to supplement various nutrients.

Fish meat is not only rich in protein, but also rich in vitamins A, D, and E. People who eat fish often will not suffer from night blindness. Because night blindness is a manifestation of vitamin A deficiency. Because one or two tons of salted fish can be eaten every week, the prevalence of night blindness in East Friesland is very low.

At the beginning, Woolf Esbrand thought that the living conditions of the people near Aurich where he was stationed were better. As a result, he rode away and ran to some remote areas, the same is true.

Of course, some serfs in the nobles' land enclave were relatively close. After all, some nobles are stingy. However, those stingy aristocrats did not starve the serfs, only that they did not receive a good treatment from the manor under the name of Marin.

In the manor under the name of Marin, the serf life is basically good. Although everyone's food has less oil and water, but the nutrition is basically sufficient, people's mental state is very good.

Seeing this, Woolf Esbrand finally returned to Marin. He believed that under Marin's governance, the citizens could live a good life.

So he began to ask Marin the legendary "Orient Art of War" ...

As a matter of fact, Marin is not a military officer with a serious background. Where can he learn how to fight? However, in the past life, he also learned a lot of military theories from the Internet and read many classic battles. At the same time, I have also read "Sun Tzu Art of War", read CCTV version of "Sun Tzu Art of War and Thirty-Six Strategies", "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and so on ...

This level is an amateur military enthusiast in later generations, but in this era, it is no problem to fool Woolf Esbrand.

Bored, Marin told Woolf Esbrandt classic examples such as "Burning the New Field" and "Flooded Seventh Army", which made Woolf Esbrandt fooled:

"Oh," Burning Xinye "is so wonderful. This Zhuge Liang is too good. I adore him ..."

"God, I did n’t expect the East to have such classic battles as the" Seven Flooded Army ". This general called Guan Yu was so good! I was complacent about the battles overwhelmed by the Danish army. I did n’t expect China to be 1,300 years ago. There is a general plan for this. It ’s my short-sightedness ... "

Marin wiped his sweat, and said with heart, my "Flooded Seven Army" is the version of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", exaggerating Guan Yu's ability. In fact, the real "Flooded Seven Army" in history was that Cao Jun killed himself and set the barracks in a low-lying area, and happened to encounter a storm. Guan Yu just took advantage of this situation instead of the version of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" That was deliberately planned.

But when it comes to using flooding, in fact, when the three families divided into Jin, Zhi Boyao once flooded Jinyang. However, in turn, they were overwhelmed by Zhao, Wei and Han, and then defeated. Moreover, that was more than 1900 years ago ...

Woolf Esbrand has never seen the world, and Marin picked up some plots that appeared on TV, and he made him laugh, making people laugh.

After Marin told him the TV drama version of "The Art of War and Thirty-Six Strategies" and "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Woolf Esbrand digested for a long time and took a lot of notes before he could barely grasp.

However, this kind of Woolf Esbrand is enough. If he was taught more, Marin wouldn't worry about him.

As it happens, Woolf Esbrand is now attentive, so Marin decided to let Woolf Esbrand take control of the 10,000-strong army of the Principality of Schleswig to guard against the Danish counterattack .

Next, Marin must win the Bishop of Münster, and it must be a mess for a while. Marin worried that the Danes would take the opportunity to attack the Principality of Schleswig. Therefore, he intends to send Woolf Esbrand to control the army of the Principality of Schleswig against the Danish invasion.

Will Woolf Esbrand collude with the Danes? Marin had never thought about this. Because ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Woolf. Esbrand and Denmark are not common enemies.

In addition, Marin arranged for Kohler to assign a team of guards to Woolf Esbrand to protect his safety. These guards actually work as spies and also monitor Woolf Esbrand. If Woolf Esbrand is loyal, nothing will happen. However, if Woolf Esbrand is antisense, these guards will cut off his head and bring it to Marin ...

Cage, the strongman who originally followed Woolf Esbrand, was left by Marin and was responsible for the training of a team of special forces.

Now, Marin's "inside and outside" tricks have been used, and the art of bombarding the oak city gate + blasting has also been used. In the future, other countries must be prepared.

Therefore, Marin intends to train a group of special soldiers who will "walk the walls" to cooperate with the main army to attack the city. At the same time, you can also be responsible for attacking enemy camps and assassinating enemy generals at night.

Cage has good skills and a flexible head, which is the best candidate for the captain of the special forces. In addition, this guy is so fierce, put him next to Woolf Esbrand, if Woolf Esbrand has a rebellious intention, those guards may not be able to face the powerful martial arts Cage Kill Woolf. Esbrand ...
