King of German Mercenaries

With the resolution of legal issues, Marin is also in a good mood. He then gave back to Lady Mary some of the documents he had stolen from Mrs. Mary.

While flipping through the notebook in the room at night, Marin remembered something...

Before, in order to prevent some historical events from being forgotten, Malin specially found a notebook and recorded some historical events in retrospect. The entire notebook is made of sheepskin, which is thicker, but not easy to break.

Moreover, the text used for taking notes, Marin also used Chinese characters, or simplified. Even if someone peeked at his notebook, he couldn't understand what it was. At least, in this era of Europe, no one can understand.

In fact, after Marin transmigrated, he didn't know what was going on. Many memories of his previous life were very clear. Of course, because the amount of information is too large and too complicated, many things are displayed in a chaotic manner in my mind. However, as long as Marin recalls a reason and retrieves relevant memories, some information he has seen in his previous life will be fully displayed. Even some of the things he had forgotten in the previous life, as long as there is a reason, they can be retrieved like a search directory, and the original memories can be restored.

For example, Prince John of Spain, after Marin focused on this person in his mind, he quickly remembered the relevant information - this unfortunate prince, who died on October 4, 1497...

Also, when Prince John died, he appeared to have a high fever and was said to have had lung disease. But Ferdinand II, who was holding his son, was not infected, so Marin inferred that Prince John's so-called lung disease was probably just a secondary disease such as bronchitis caused by a cold.

Of course, the specific situation needs to be confirmed. For example, did Prince John start coughing every day a long time ago or just recently. Perennial cough, may be lung disease. But if you cough after you have a cold and a fever, that's bronchitis or something.

To heal Prince John, Marin naturally needs to make some preparations. To treat high fever, it is natural to first apply alcohol to the body to reduce the fever.

To this end, Malin specially sent someone to buy a batch of high-priced Scotch whisky. Of course, the whisky at this time was not called whisky, but "water of life", and it was used as a kind of potion to ward off cold. And its alcohol content is only more than 30 degrees. Compared to beer and red wine with very low alcohol content, this is already a real spirit.

However, this kind of spirits brewed with grains is relatively expensive because the grains are expensive, so the production is relatively small, and the price is also very high.

Whiskey with more than 30 degrees can also be used as a coating to reduce fever, but the effect is not very good. Therefore, Marin found a steamer, purified it again, and added quicklime to absorb water. As a result, the whisky was purified to about 80 degrees of alcohol, which is already higher than the later medical alcohol requirement of 75 degrees.

Marin filled a few bottles and brought them with him, ready to give the prince a fever. In addition, he also sent people to buy a lot of cane sugar. Next, Marin used fluffy charcoal and put it in the sucrose water to absorb impurities. Then, he got higher purity sucrose.

As for these high-purity sucrose, it is actually intended to be used to make "Bingtang Sydney". If Prince John has a common cough and trachea inflammation, then rock candy Sydney will be a good choice.

If it is really a lung disease, then Marin will choose to use a remedies he has seen in his previous life - using aloe vera, white vinegar and rock sugar. Aloe vera is the origin of the Mediterranean region, and Spain must have it. Rock Sugar Marin just made a batch of high-quality white sugar, which can be substituted. As for white vinegar, Marin didn't have it and didn't know how to get it. Therefore, it can only be replaced by the popular apple cider vinegar in Europe, which can also be used.

As for the ginger and brown sugar for colds, they are available everywhere in Europe. Although European ginger is still very expensive these days, it is still available. There is no shortage of brown sugar, but the price is also a bit high, 1 pound of brown sugar can be sold for 2 shillings in Europe (after Spain opened up sugar cane plantations in Central America,

Sugar prices will drop a bit).

After preparing a few items, Marin set off for Spain.

Originally, the most convenient is to go to Spain by boat from the sea. However, to go to Spain you have to go through the Strait of Calais. Marin was afraid that the French would know the news and sent warships to intercept it. Now, after Marin sent four main warships to India, there are only three or two small boats at home. If he encounters the main French fleet, he is afraid that it will be more fortunate than for luck. And if the French know that they are going to Spain by boat, the chances of sending a fleet to intercept are also very high. After all, that time in Italy, the French suffered too much in the hands of Marin. At sea, anything can happen. Even if the French kill Marin, they can still argue that the pirates did it...

If Marin was not on board, the French would not necessarily intercept the ship in the Wadden Islands, but as long as they heard that Marin was on board, not to mention Charles VIII, who hated Marin to the core, even other French local officials would probably think of something to do it. himself, to please his own king.

Therefore, Marin rejected the plan to go to Spain by boat and went by land instead. Of course, the overland route through France will never be taken, although it is the best overland option.

After thinking about it, Marin finally decided to start from Germany and head south to Italy. After arriving in Italy, he would go to Sicily or Sardinia first, and then take a Spanish ship to Spain.

Once in Spain, Marin doesn't have to worry about someone getting him. Because Spain and France are mortal enemies, and they are fighting over the ownership of the Navarra region. Spaniards, it is impossible for nobles to besiege themselves in order to please the French king. Whoever wanted to do this, Ferdinand II had to cut him to death.

Not to mention Spain, Italy is also relatively safe. Because, except for the two states of Genoa and Savoy, all other states in Italy are hostile to France. And Pope Alexander VI, who is simply a Spaniard, is hostile to France from the standpoint of Spain.

However, some local nobles in the northwest region of Germany, because of their close relationship with France, may be bribed by France to deal with them.

But this is not difficult for Marin, this time out, Marin himself did not plan to show his flag, but decided to disguise himself as an ordinary soldier and act with 100 men. Even, in order to hide his traces, Marin, who basically didn't have a beard, even got a fake beard and put it on, dressed as a big beard...

This was also inspired by the last time he took Angela out of Italy. Last time, Marin put a fake beard on Angela and easily escaped the inspection of the Borgia family. This time, in order to ensure his own personal safety, Marin also planned to disguise himself as a middle-aged bearded man to avoid the sight of the French and his allies, in order to arrive in Spain safely and smoothly.

In order not to attract attention, Marin also divided the 100 guards into three batches, and each batch was separated by a certain distance, so as to avoid too many people in the team and too conspicuous.

And the three groups of people are not too far apart, and they can join together quickly. If you are in danger, you just need to ignite the double-shot cannon made by Marin. The firecrackers exploded in the sky, and the other two groups not far away could quickly get the information and rush to reinforce. Marin, on the other hand, accompanied the team in the middle, accompanied by a fierce general like Kahn and more than 30 of the most elite.
