Chapter 546: Your majesty, do you want 2 armor armor?

()

() & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp When a group of princes gathered in Worms to hold the "Heroes Conference", the fighting in Switzerland did not stop at all.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp negotiated with the Danish King Hans about the timber trade. Marin received the 10,000 troops of the Habsburg family from Switzerland sent by Kohler that night, led by the former general of Marin in Frensberg In the Swiss region with empty troops, the situation is like breaking through.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbspFrenzberg led the army, not only quickly captured the Habsburg family's long-rising Aargau, but also seized the opportunity to occupy the western half of Zurich, Switzerland's largest canton. Even, it seems that the city of Zurich will be conquered.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp At the same time, Franzberg also split troops south and attacked Lucerne in the south of the Aargau. It is said that Frensberg is also planning to send troops to attack Berne, which is no less than Zurich. Unfortunately, his strength is not enough. After all, Maximilian I only gave him 10,000.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp Swiss mountainous terrain, and there are also many fortresses built on the mountain. If you want to sweep Switzerland, you not only have to overcome the rolling terrain, but also need to conquer these fortresses.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbspFrenzberg followed Marin for a long time, familiar with Marin's style, and admired Marin's tactical tactics. Therefore, although he was sent to serve the emperor, Frensberg never stopped studying and imitating Marin's novel tactics.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp For example, this time, Frenzberg specially brought most of the artillery and ammunition in Austria. As for what to do with artillery? Naturally imitating Marin's tactics, bombarded the city gate.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp Moreover, the Swiss region did not switch to iron gates like Denmark and Saxony. Because the Swiss never thought that the homeland would be attacked. In addition, this is a mountainous area, and the news is relatively blocked.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp So, using the Swiss news to block, before the opportunity to replace the city gate, Frensberg learned Marin's tactics, formed a large-scale artillery unit and a professional blasting team, specializing in the Swiss oak city gate And fortress gate.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp is like this, relying on advanced tactics, and the weakness of the Swiss military emptiness, Frensberg led troops to sweep across the northern region of Switzerland. By the time the intelligence officers under Koehler had sent a message, Franzberg was about to capture Zurich. In fact, when Marin received this information, Zurich was already on the slopes

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp However, Marin knew that this was not the end, but the beginning.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp Why? Because the Swiss are not so good to conquer. In addition, the Habsburg family also took advantage of Switzerland's just empty military strength.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp Not to mention the 80,000 Swiss mercenaries captured by Marin, even in France and the Principality of Geddes, there are more than 10,000 mercenaries.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp The Swiss mercenaries captured by Marin may have no chance to participate in the war against the Habsburg family. Because, Marin has decided to sell them to the emperor.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp However, the more than 10,000 Swiss mercenaries employed by France and the Principality of Geddes will surely resist the occupation of the Habsburg family. They are not guerrillas, nor guerrillas, but super-regular regular army formed.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp According to intelligence sent by Marin ’s spies in the Principality of Geddes, the Zig mercenary led by the head of the Zig mercenary who had previously fought for the Principality of Geddes and several other Swiss mercenary regiments have packed up. The preparing country has entered the war.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp counts thousands of people in France, if they go all over, they are more than 20,000 elite troops. Moreover, France will definitely provide them with assembly points and logistics supplies.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp Because the French never want the Habsburg family to control the entire Switzerland. Otherwise, once this happens, the French will not want to recruit powerful Swiss mercenaries from Switzerland under the control of the Habsburg family.

Marin concluded that the French will definitely work hard to support the Swiss mercenaries this time and hope that they will defeat the Habsburg family army.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp Therefore, the current army of the Habsburg family is obviously not enough to fight against the Swiss mercenaries who returned home. Even if the army is doubled, it may not be victorious. Therefore, Marin concluded that Maximilian I will definitely expand his army. At least, another 10,000 troops must be added to withstand the Swiss counterattack

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp After sending King Hans away, Marin took the initiative to visit Emperor Maximilian I, who remained in Worms

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp Of course, Marin is not just to remind the emperor, he also has a very important mission to sell arms

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp is erroneous, it should be said that it is marketing armor

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp These years, most of the military equipment is still cold weapons, without fire. Therefore, it is more appropriate to refer to military equipment as weapon armor.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbspMarin won the war this time and caught so many captives. Naturally, he would not be polite. It is needless to say that he took off the weapons and armor on the captives.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp Although they reached a peace agreement with Brandenburg and Saxony, as long as the other party had a ransom of 1 million gold coins each, it was only enough to ransom. As for war horses and weapon armor, naturally it is not among the ranks of redemption. Of course, the two electorate states are not far behind that weapon armor. Especially for Saxony, it is not difficult to equip the soldiers. But the electorate of Brandenburg is relatively poor, and it is a bit difficult to get another set. Fortunately, Marin reduced the other party's ransom by half. Otherwise, Joakim I couldn't even get the ransom.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp Both Saxony and Brandenburg are traditional princes who respect the plate armoured knights. Therefore, their plate armoured knights are many. In the last decisive battle, the electorate of Brandenburg dispatched more than 3,000 plate armoured knights. Saxony has more electors than 4,000.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbspAlthough Frederick III eventually ran away with a few hundred Saxony knights, in order to lightly go into battle and facilitate the escape, the hundreds of Saxony knights took off both the plate armor and the armor, and were eventually sent by Marin's pursuers Picked it up.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp So, in that decisive battle, Ma Linguang was plate armor and horse armor, and seized 7,000 sets. As for the remaining types of weapons, there are piles of piles.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbspMarin is not very happy that his army uses these backward weapons and armor, but he is not happy, does not mean that others are not happy

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp For example, the Austrian side will definitely be interested. You know, in history, Maximilian I was known as the "last knight", and he also created the famous and the most extreme plate armor Maximilian armor.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp Therefore, this knight emperor is definitely interested in the plate armor and horse armor. Marin's search for His Majesty the Emperor this time, not only came the news of ventilation, but also meant the promotion of second-hand weapon armor.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp After all, the war is imminent, and the Habsburg family must definitely expand. People are easier to recruit, but weapons and armor may not be in place all at once. Marin's second-hand weapon armor, such as plate armor, is not as advanced and easy to use as the "Maximilian armor" designed by Maximilian I, but it is also a popular commodity seized from the two electoral countries. of. The most important thing is that it can be used.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp, war is imminent, but there is no time for Maximilian I to order the Royal Arsenal in Innsbruck to produce enough Maximilian armor. Therefore, the second-hand plate armor delivered by Marin is the best choice.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp After all, the Swiss are good at using spears, and moving is just not afraid of spears. Although the Warhammer is also used in Swiss mercenaries, it is specifically used to deal with plate armor. However, that is a minority after all. Also, the warriors wearing plate armor are not stupid. Standing there and letting you smash them will definitely fight back. When the number of warriors wearing plate armor reaches a certain number, the Swiss spearman will also feel very tricky.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp came to the emperor's temporary residence, Marin easily saw the emperor. After learning of Marin's information, Maximilian I was not too surprised. Obviously, he also received relevant information.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp As Marin thought, Maximilian I also felt that the troop strength was not enough and decided to expand the army by tens of thousands. However, the source of weapon armor really became the emperor's heart disease. The war is imminent, there is no time to produce weapon armor

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp weapons are good to say, such as a spear, it is nothing more than a spear head in front of a wooden stick, less iron, and short working hours. The plate armor is different. It takes a long time for a skilled craftsman to make it. The production efficiency is not high, otherwise it will not be so expensive. It is not possible to mass-produce quickly.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp In fact, what Maximilian I wanted most was to let the army under Marin help him fight. The combat effectiveness of Marin ’s army is there. As long as Marin ’s army is used, victory will be certain. But where is Marin?

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp Not to mention that Marin did not want to jump into the war quagmire of Switzerland. Marin himself wanted to use the quagmire of Switzerland to drag down the Habsburg family.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp As an excuse? Wasn't the princes oppressing Marin at the Empire Conference? What the princes are most worried about is that Marin became the thug of Maximilian I. It would be sad if Marin had promised that he would not become the thug of the emperor's unification of Germany.

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp If Marin turned his head to help the emperor fight in Switzerland, is this unknown to play with the princes?

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp Therefore, Marin has every reason to refuse to send troops to fight for the emperor. For this, Maximilian I had no choice. After all ~ www.novelhall.com ~ He also knows that if Marin really promised to help himself to fight, he might be beaten by the group as soon as he turned around

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp Just when Maximilian I was a little worried, Marin suddenly said:

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp "Your Majesty, do you want second-hand weapon armor?"

& nbsp & nbsp & nbsp & nbsp Uh, double eleven, obviously Singles Day, a sad day, for Mao said to be high in the sky? What's the joy? Perverted merchants, just look for the reasons for fooling people
