Although the Senegal fur company is named by Marin, the main employees are also provided by Marin, but, legally speaking, it is a legal representative for Jorge de Rencastre, Duke of Coimbra, Portugal. Portuguese company.

In other words, without the support of Jorge de Rencastre, Duke of Coimbra, Marin ’s hunting of rhinoceros in Senegal will not continue. After all, Senegal is Portugal ’s colonial sphere of influence.

Therefore, Eschwein's psychology is very clear, they have to make concessions. Moreover, at the beginning, the two sides agreed that all rhino horns and ivory belonged to Jorge de Rencastre, Duke of Coimbra. Rhino horns and ivory are also the most valuable things in the West African savannah of Senegal. Although it was only Mido ’s threat, Eschwein knew that Duke Jorge de Rencastre, Duke of Coimbra, would support this decision. Because this decision is very beneficial to the Duke of Coimbra, Jorge de Rencastre.

However, Eschwein has no right to decide. After all, the steel ball bullets needed for hunting elephants need to be produced by local craftsmen. Therefore, he can only report to Marin, requesting more steel ball bullets.

Before the new steel ball bullets allocated by the local government arrived, he continued to hunt the West African black rhinoceros to obtain enough rhinoceros.

In fact, because of Maximilian I's request to postpone the offense, Eschwein may not be able to keep up with the local demand for rhino hunting. After all, Marin was scheduled to launch an attack in September. However, in that case, the supply of rhinoceros armor may not keep up. This is because it takes a long time to peel the rhinoceros from the rhinoceros and make it into a leather armor. And Maximilian I postponed the time to November, which gave Eschwein enough time.

The skins of the first batch of more than 400 West African black rhinos have been peeled off and preliminary processed. They are ready to be shipped back to China and handed over to crafted leather craftsmen to make them. However, the skin of a rhino can only make a few sets of rhinoceros armor. The skin of more than 400 West African black rhinos can only make more than 2,000 sets of rhinoceros armor.

But this is also impossible, because the chassis range of the West African black rhino is too large. A rhinoceros has a land area of ​​10 square kilometers, and more than 400 heads are more than 4,000 square kilometers! If it were not for a hunting team riding a Pueblo horse, it would be impossible to hunt more than 400 West African black rhinos in the short term. You know, more than 4,000 square kilometers are more than the area of ​​the native East Friesland.

Fortunately, Royce divided the 100 Musketeers into three groups of 33, which greatly expanded the hunting range. Otherwise, the efficiency is slower. Even so, it is a difficult task to hunt rhinoceros enough to make the rhinoceros armor worn by 15,000 people by November.

However, fortunately, Marin also expected the entire army to be equipped with rhinoceros armor. For example, in order to cope with the possible shortage of rhinoceros armor, Marin also prepared a lot of "mahjong mat" wood chip armor. The mahjong mat wood chip armor is also lightweight, making it easy to cross mountains. Moreover, the Siena defenders did not become a musketeer. To deal with Siena's crossbowmen, mahjong mat wood chip armor also plays a role. Moreover, during the war, Marin will put the warrior wearing a rhinoceros armor in front. The soldiers wearing wood-chip armor are arranged behind. In this way, casualties can also be greatly reduced.

...

While Marin was preparing to go south to Italy to attack Siena, at the end of July, the hottest part of the year, a shock occurred on the outskirts of Pamplona, ​​the capital of the Kingdom of Navarre in the northeast of the Iberian Peninsula The assassination in Europe ...

The target of the assassination is naturally the famous Caesar Pogia ...

At the signal of the Pope's father-in-law, Marin sent people to the Kingdom of Navarre to investigate the movement of Caesar Pogia a few years ago.

However, what makes Marin depressed is that Caesar Pogia has been very low-key since he arrived in the Kingdom of Navarre. Moreover, the most depressing thing is that this product is as afraid of death as Marin. Every time he goes out, he wears a chest plate armor and a helmet ...

Fortunately, this product is not like this all year round. Because, summer in Spain is very hot. If you wear plate armor on a hot day, you have to be hot. After all, the summer temperature in Spain is over 30 degrees. How can you wear it so thick in such weather?

And at the end of last year, Marin had already decided well-to hire an assassin to take advantage of the summer to assassinate Caesar Borgia ... and the way to assassinate was a flying knife ...

The reason why I choose to use a flying knife is not because of how powerful the flying knife is, but because it is convenient to use and easy to hide ... After all, an assassin can insert a flying knife in his own. If you use a crossbow, it is easy to expose.

This is because the only chance of assassination of Caesar Borgia is to return to church every Sunday morning for Caesar Borgia to worship. How to hide the bow and crossbow in the bright day? Therefore, only the flying knife with good concealment can be used. As for the short musket, it is also a good tool. But the problem is that there are currently very few countries using short muskets, and Marin's Beihai State is one of them. If you assassinated Caesar Borgia with a short musket, would n’t you tell someone else-Caesar killed me?

Fortunately, because of Henry VII, the popular darts sport in England made a large number of dart masters appear in England ~ www.novelhall.com ~ And this time assassination, Marin hired a group of English dart masters. Darts to assassinate Caesar Borgia.

Moreover, this time it is the killer organization called "Assassin's Creed" that is responsible for hiring these masters of darts ...

In fact, the leader of the Assassin's Creed, known as Altaïr, was just an ordinary Italian spy of the North Sea Chamber of Commerce under Kohler, whose real name was Ezio.

With the support of the North Sea Chamber of Commerce, Ezio recruited a group of veteran assassins in Italy and Spain in the name of Altaïr and planned several successful assassination charges. Then, Ezio sent people to England to recruit a group of dart masters, let them repeatedly practice the technique of using darts to assassinate.

Until the end of July, the hottest year in Spain, the group of English dart masters was finally ready ...

However, instead of immediately assassinating Caesar Borgia, they learned the Spanish Navarre dialect for a long time. Then, half a month earlier, came to the road that Caesar Pogia took outside Pamplona. Moreover, before they started, they also played with Kaiser Pogia's team a few times ...

When I first met with Caesar Borgia's team, Caesar Borgia inexplicably felt dangerous, but nothing happened. Even the vigilant Caesar Borgia let his men search the few English dart masters. However, nothing was found. Then Caesar Borgia was relieved.

Afterwards, Caesar Borgia also asked his men to investigate the origins of these people and found that they were porters from other places. But after a few days of surveillance, no suspicious areas were found.

Then, after waiting for half a month, until Caesar Borgia relaxed, the group of dart masters really started the assassination ...
