Chapter 275： Pointing Albert

After selecting Albert as the new governor of Twin Islands, Marin called Albert into his office, spread out a map, and began his work.

"Albert, you ’re good to see, here are the twin islands, Amerigo Island on the right, and Columbus Island on the left. After you pass, you have to go west, arrive here-Long Island, then west, enter Had The Sun River. Well, the island in the river is called Manhattan Island. The area is called New York (Marin is lazy, and the names are too lazy to change). If possible, you can buy this island with some beautiful glassware ... "

"Is it possible to buy this island with a little glass?" Albert is puzzled-how can there be such a stupid person in the world?

"Well, you don't understand. This area called New York, including large areas to the west, belongs to the area controlled by a clan alliance called the Delaware (or Delaware). This alliance is a clan alliance of a matriarchal society. ... "

"What is maternal society?" Albert puzzled.

"It means that a woman is headed!"

"Uh ..." Albert was dumbfounded, which exceeded his cognition.

"Women like beautiful things, so I let you bring some good-looking glass ornaments to change the land with them! If it is a man, it will not be so easy."

"Otherwise, I'll bring some cloth?" Albert asked.

"Flower cloth?" Marin thought for a while. It seems that East Friesland has also established a weak woolen industry. Although there are only a few wool spinning factories, woolen fabrics can be woven. Of course, dyes are expensive and are imported.

Remembering the nature of women who naturally like gorgeous things, Marin nodded and said:

"Yes, you can bring some fabrics to try. After buying Manhattan Island, you will build a castle on it. Then, trade with the Indians on a regular basis."

"Aren't you attacking the Indians?" Albert puzzled.

"Stupid, must we fight? And, even if we want to attack the Indians, we need to lead the party!"

"Leading party?" Albert was puzzled.

"It's the locals who are familiar with the terrain. Remember, Albert, the jungle on the wild continent is dense. If you don't need it, you can't easily send troops into the jungle. Those Indians are masters of jungle ambush."

"Moreover, the Drava people I picked are the friendliest among the Indians. You can win them through trade. You can even help them grow land and then sell some cattle to them. Usually, you need to hire more The Indians are doing things for you. "

"When you want to expand in the future, you will draw the Delaware warriors to help you deal with other tribes. With them as the lead party, you can easily find the opponent's village, and it is not easy to be in the forest. ambush……"

After thinking for a long time, Albert nodded and said:

"I get it, Brother Marin, does that mean what you said before to say" pull one pie, fight one pie "?"

"Yeah, it's quite talented. That's right, that's what it means!"

"We took the Delaware to expand together, and when the site became bigger and bigger, the Delaware became more and more scattered. They totaled thousands of people. Once dispersed, there were few people in each place. It is no threat to us. And we can rely on them to rule the Indians. "

"Brother is really clever and deserves to be a Daxian disciple!"

"Okay, do n’t flatter. Remember, when trading in New York and the Delaware, a large amount of oak, especially whole oak, should be acquired. Later, shipbuilding will need to use it. The oak over there, there is a kind of red oak In autumn, the leaves turn red. When you go, Tara ’s men will tell you. In addition to white oak, red oak is also needed. After the timber is purchased, build a shed on Manhattan Island to let it air dry. One or two It can be used for shipbuilding in years. Remember, this is one of your main tasks after landing. "

"Yes, I understand!"

"One more thing, after landing, you must use more cattle and mules, and you are not allowed to land with horses. Horses must stay on the islands of Amerigo and Columbus. Even if you really land with horses, you must be castrated. Horses! In addition, selling horses to the Indians is absolutely not allowed, only cattle and mules! "Marin remembered the terrifying Indian cavalry of later generations and decided to give Albert a vaccination in advance.

"Why?" Albert puzzled.

"The Indians are brave and warrior, they don't have horses over there. If the Indians had horses and out of cavalry, would you expand a P? Wait to be beaten!"

Albert thought about it, really. The opponent is already good at jungle warfare, and if he has a horse, he will be a god.

"So, Brother Marin, the Indians are so powerful, can we fight?"

"Yes, as long as the Delaware archers cover the flanks, you can organize a strong soldier to wear a full set of plate armor, you are not afraid of the Indians' broken bow and arrows. As long as they are close to each other, the other party can only wait to be hacked! "

"It really is a good way!"

"One problem with this tactic is that the soldiers wearing plate armour consume too much energy. It is inconvenient to run horses in the jungle. Only infantry wear plate armour. Therefore, a group of very strong soldiers like Kahn and Ad Le-like perverts. Otherwise, ordinary soldiers will get tired and lie down after running for a while. But perverts like Kahn are hard to find. I ’ll show you a few. It ’s estimated that there are few people. However, the number of Indians is also small. .As long as dozens of plate armoured infantry rushed forward, it was enough to defeat them. "

Noble nodded, waiting for Marin to help him select dozens of animals to serve as a vanguard. Faced with the soft bows and arrows of the Indians, it is obvious that the soldiers wearing plate armor are invincible. The only weakness of the plate armoured infantry is physical problems. Therefore, this unit needs to act abnormally ...

"Try not to let the horses go ashore, lest the Delaware ask for it. If the officials really need to mount, they use mules. The mules can also carry pigs and carts. I will send a lot of donkeys and mares to Columbus Island. In the past, you set up a mule breeding base on Columbus Island, dedicated to the needs of the mainland. "

"If you really need horses to go ashore, remember that they must be castrated. Whoever takes the uncastrated horse to the land, immediately arrested and jailed, no pardon!"

"Understand, I will write it into the laws of Shuangdao!"

"That's the best ~ www.novelhall.com ~ By the way, you bring some sheep and domestic pigs over there and raise them there. This can be sold to the Indians and can also guide them how to raise them."

"The Indians are brave because they often hunt during the farming season. They were taught to raise pigs and sheep, and they usually go to herd and they don't have time to hunt. The savage temperament cultivated by hunting will also subside. So You can sell sheep to them without restriction. However, I ca n’t give them the kind of British semi-fine wool sheep I make, which is a good thing and the wool is very valuable. If you sell to the Indians, just use ordinary sheep! "

"Also, get some salt from the salt base in Cape Breton Island and sell it to the Indians. This is hard currency and can be used to hire Indians to help us cut down oak. Unlike glass ornaments, it is impossible to produce large quantities for a long time. Goods. "Glass ornaments are" luxury goods "among Indians after all, and Indians cannot buy them every day. And table salt is different, this is required every day. North American Indians are backward in civilization and are not very good at making salt. Therefore, it is definitely hard currency to get salt in North America.

Uh ...

Just like this, Marin called Albert into the office and guided for a long time, instructing Albert's work direction after going to the North American islands, lest Albert had no experience, and when he got there, he messed up things ...
