Chapter 1295： You fight, I get some royal water

Speaking of that, Pargani is actually reluctant to get this ugly "black pot" helmet. However, because the mercenary group's business is not good, the funds are difficult. The original helmet of the "Gentleman Mercenary Corps" is to get a spearhead on the top of the helmet, and then add some feathers. That way, it looks more handsome. Moreover, it is also a popular style in Europe.

Unfortunately, because he had no money, Pargani ordered an iron helmet without a spear on top of the hat. Because it saves a lot of money. After all, helmets are now hand-made by blacksmiths. If you want to put a spearhead on the iron helmet, the cost is very high. Only a few officers opened their eyes and could insert feathers. Therefore, when Marin saw 800 "spitfires", it was purely because the "gentle mercenary regiment" lacked money, and the spearhead on the top of the helmet was cut corners. However, this is more like a steel helmet in later generations. If it is worn on the head, it is actually quite handsome. But on his back ...

Marin also realized that in the future, the helmet of his own army must never be dyed in pure black. Otherwise, it ’s like a scumbag on your back ...

"Ah, I don't know if this group of Italians will survive in the end ..." Marin said with emotion.

After all, he deceived these 10,000 Italian boys into Germany. And, send them to die ...

However, Marin still underestimated the cunning of the Italians. Italy has a strong business atmosphere, and ordinary people are smarter and more profitable than the simple and honest German people. Therefore, compared with the Germans, the Italians are a bit hesitant and do not want to suffer.

This quality, used in doing business, is an excellent quality. However, when used in the military, it is very unfortunate. Because the small businessmen who care about things are most afraid of losing money. The death toll is very bad. As a result, business-minded Italians are often reluctant to die with their enemies. If they see the signs wrong, they will surrender happily ...

In other words, Italians are like the city people and smart people that Qi Jiguang refused to recruit. This kind of person can easily escape to protect himself on the battlefield, which leads to the defeat of the army.

The Germans are somewhat honest and straightforward. Such a person is most suitable for being a soldier. Because, even in the face of difficulties, the honest German soldiers will persevere and are not used to speculation.

Therefore, Marin ’s concerns about the Italian mercenaries are unnecessary. Because, under adversity, this group of "smart" Italian mercenaries will choose to surrender, and will not be stupid desperately ...

...

Of course, the Italian mercenaries will not surrender casually until there is no defeat. After all, people are lucky, especially those who think they are clever-maybe ... if ... can win ...

Therefore, before there is no despair, the Italian mercenaries will not easily recognize the plant. Only when you can't beat it, will you give up.

In addition, as Italy's famous "generally defeated general", in fact, Pargani has a magical talent-escape ...

After all, on the battlefield, it is also a skill to survive after losing and not being captured. And Pargani is precisely the best at escape. Moreover, he escaped with his men.

Pargani is not good at finding fighters, so it is difficult to win the battle. However, he has a talent-he can capture the weak points of the enemy when he is defeated, and escapes with his men ...

Therefore, even if the battle is often defeated, because of this ability, there are still many Italian mercenaries willing to follow him. After all, when Pargani escaped, he brought his brothers together and did not abandon his men. And the mercenary leader who only cares about his own escape, as long as this is done a few times, no one will follow him ...

...

From Aurich to Oldenburg, it is only seven or eighty kilometers away. Therefore, although the Italian mercenaries did not march fast, they would still be first arrived by the eight-nation coalition. Because the coalition of the eight princes had just arrived in Osnabrück. In accordance with established practice, the coalition forces entered the city and ransacked. Because of the busy robbery, the coalition march must not be fast.

Therefore, Malin did not worry that the Italian mercenaries arrived in Oldenburg later than the coalition forces of the eight countries.

Moreover, Marin has left behind-2000 Cossack cavalry, already lurking halfway from Osnabrück to Oldenburg.

If the coalition of the eight princes marched slowly, the four Cossack cavalry regiments would ignore it. However, if the coalition forces speed up their pace, then the Cossack cavalry will take the initiative to attack and harass, instead of confronting each other directly, just to delay the march. Only in this way can the Italian mercenaries arrive in Oldenburg first.

And this arrangement of Marin really worked. The coalition forces of the Eight Kingdoms sent a 200-person squadron of light cavalry, which was easily eliminated by the Cossack cavalry regiment.

The move really caused panic among the coalition forces of the princes of the Eight Kingdoms, and countries all sent scout cavalry to investigate the news. However, at this time the Cossack cavalry ran far away and ran away at night.

Because the Cossack cavalry did not let go of an enemy cavalry, it made the princes of the Eight Kingdoms a little uneasy. In this way, they are more cautious. The marching speed, which was already very slow, was slower. A few days later, the coalition army continued to go north because it was okay. At this time, the Italian mercenaries had already entered the city of Oldenburg and were armed in their way ...

...

And at this time, what is our traverser Marin doing? Alchemy ... Abu, really engaged in chemical production ...

Some of Marin's production this time is a bit of a blast. Because, it has a very bullish name-Wang Shui!

Yes, that is the royal water that can dissolve gold and silver!

Of course, Marin does not want to use aqua regia to dissolve gold and silver or engage in any wet alchemy. He engages in Wang Shui to deal with the big iron gate of the capitals of the princes of the Eight Kingdoms ...

As long as Marin "returns", he must quickly beat the coalition forces of the eight countries. However, it is not easy to destroy the eight vassals.

Those little uncles are okay and easier to fight. Among the eight princely states, the rich Principality of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel and the Principality of Brunswick-Lüneburg, the capitals were all replaced with large iron gates that could not move. Even Gelden, the capital of the German capital, is also the gate of four large iron gates. Of course, when Geldenbo was the Principality of Geddes, it was built as a pure iron gate because of its financial strength. As for the other small uncles, including the general Saxony-Fort Laurn, the capital is also the oak gate ...

For the Oak City Gate, Marin had already prepared-burn the city gate with gasoline ...

In the past two years when Marin was absent, Kohler's men did not stop going to the Wisla Valley in the Galicia region of Poland to purchase oil. In two years, many barrels have been stored.

Before launching Wang Shui, Marin extracted 30 barrels of gasoline. Then, according to the old rules, deliberately put in the red dye, add something that smells bad, so that people can not ask its origin.

In this way, as long as you attack the cities where the city gates are oak doors, you can burn the city gates directly with gasoline. Then, the door burned out and sent someone to blast ...

...

But for the steel gate, it is not easy. If sulfuric acid is used, the reaction speed of dilute sulfuric acid is slow, and concentrated sulfuric acid easily reacts with iron to form a thin film, causing the reaction to stop.

Therefore, it is better to use hydrochloric acid. But Marin suddenly remembered-if there is hydrochloric acid, why not just prepare the fastest-reacting aqua regia and use it to corrode the steel gates? After all, aqua regia is made by mixing concentrated hydrochloric acid and concentrated nitric acid.

Marlin concentrated nitrate has been produced for a long time. It is to use concentrated sulfuric acid to react with saltpeter to obtain nitric acid. The preparation of hydrochloric acid is not difficult, just use concentrated sulfuric acid and salt to heat the reaction.

So, while Ma Lin was bored, while others were busy fighting, he refined hydrochloric acid and configured aqua regia in the laboratory ...

...

After the Wang Shui was deployed, it was really powerful. But when the test destroyed the iron gate, there was a big accident-the soldiers used were poisoned ...

It turns out that after the reaction of nitric acid and iron in aqua regia, toxic nitric oxide gas that can cause fainting is generated. Soldiers using glass containers filled with royal water are leaning against the Iron City Gate while holding the containers. As a result, the nitric oxide gas floated up, and after the soldiers inhaled the gas, they were comatose. Then, the glass in his hand fell to the ground and poured directly on the foot ... Then, the soldier's right foot was severely corroded and burned. Although his life was saved, the right foot was crippled ...

...

"This ... using Wang Shui is so dangerous, it seems that you have to get a gas mask ..." Marin was stunned ... Fortunately, he didn't do it himself this time, otherwise, the disabled is himself ...

"Dangerous goods are not so fun, no wonder that later generations of countries strictly control these things ..." If Wang Shui splashes people's faces, it is much more serious than splashing sulfuric acid ... After all, Wang Shui is the legendary "corpse water" ... …
