The Rise of the European Emperor

Chapter 824 America is very dangerous, don't go grab it!

The 300 coffins were built quickly, after all, the New York Colony now lacks wood. Moreover, Marin also made it clear - this is a fake coffin, not for human use. Therefore, how rough the workmanship comes. The most immoral one was a carpenter who sawed logs directly into the shape of a coffin. Then, add a cover on top and you're done...

Anyway, the cover plate is to be nailed to death, who has the leisure to pull out the nail to see if it is solid? With such rough workmanship, 300 coffins are naturally made quickly.

During this time, Marin asked Albert about the New York Colony and the Mohican Wars. Albert also told the truth - he has only driven the other party away from the upper Hudson River area. The Hudson River has a total length of about 500 kilometers, that is to say, New York's colonial army has penetrated 500 kilometers into the Hudson River. This record is still quite good.

You know, North America in this era is full of deep mountains and old forests, and there are basically no roads. In such an environment, being able to penetrate 500 kilometers inland is already a rapid progress.

But Albert told Marin that the colonial army did not go 500 kilometers deep on land, but rowed north along the Hudson River until it landed in the upstream area, just attacking the territory of the Mohicans...

Marin was stunned, then relieved. Because that's what makes sense. It would be strange if the team of more than 1,000 warriors who were not very familiar with jungle warfare could really penetrate 500 kilometers into the jungle on land. Being able to play 500 kilometers away on land means that you have the strength to control the territory within this 500 kilometers range. But it is obviously impossible for those more than a thousand soldiers who are not very familiar with jungle warfare...

Fortunately, after many encounters, the more than 1,000 warriors, led by dozens of Black Forest hunters, were basically familiar with the environment of the primitive jungles of North America. Now, they are very comfortable with the Mohicans. It's just that Marin repeatedly emphasized that he should not kill the people, just drive away the Mohicans, which made the occupation seem to be deadlocked. Marin's real purpose is actually to let the army take the opportunity of chasing the Mohicans to occupy all the territory along the way...

However, the more than 1,000 colonial troops alone are not enough. Marin plans to mobilize thousands of people to help after returning to China, so as to completely control a large area near New York. Of course, the new army will certainly not be able to adapt to the North American jungle. Fortunately, the more than 1,000 colonial soldiers who came first were basically familiar with the local environment. With them, new soldiers can quickly adapt to the local environment...

...

After the coffin was laid, Marin began to board the ship. However, before boarding the ship, Marin called Albert and said:

"Albert, come back with me!"

"Go back?" Albert's heart tightened. Could it be that his brother wants to remove him as the governor?

But Marin's words reassured him:

"Don't be nervous, I'm just asking you to go back and get married. Miss Gust has feelings for you this time after hearing that you were injured, and strongly requested to come to America with the ship to see you. Therefore, she passed the inspection of the family, It's suitable to be your wife. Just as I announced to the public that you were shot by Indians. So, you just took this opportunity to go back to Europe to 'recover'. At the same time, you and Miss Gust got married..."

Albert was relieved after hearing this, but blushed quickly. So, he twisted and said:

"Okay, listen to the second brother..."

Because Albert was going back to Europe, in order to prevent Albert from having any accidents, Marin simply asked Albert to recall all the more than 1,000 colonial troops, so that they could safely guard Manhattan Island so that nothing could go wrong.

On the return journey, the fleet passed Cape Breton Island, and Malin landed and snatched all the 100 barrels of maple sugar collected and purified by Garland. Maple syrup is a healthy sweet treat for the elderly, children and women. So Marin grabbed all the maple syrup and brought it back to his family. Although 100 barrels may seem like a lot, there are many people in the Marin family.

Besides, a loyal subordinate should be rewarded, right? The Pope's father-in-law will also send it... Therefore, 100 barrels is really a drop in the bucket...

Garland was a little depressed, but also a little happy—Marin was able to grab his maple syrup without saying a word, proving that he wasn't an outsider. As long as Marin treats him as his own, he will maintain his wealth. As for a little maple syrup... Nimad, be sure to prepare for next year. The sugar maple trees on Cape Breton Island alone can extract thousands of barrels of maple sugar, and that's not even counting the sugar maple trees on Newfoundland...

...

When returning to the voyage, the sailboats are all hung with horizontal sails. The return trip was downwind and along the North Atlantic Current. Therefore, the use of horizontal sails is the most efficient. A month later, the fleet arrived at the port of Emden. Moreover, the battleship formation did not fall behind this time. Because, if you use the horizontal sail, it will be the appetite of the battleship. So, this time, the battleship formation did not lag behind the formation of 250 armed merchant ships.

As soon as Marin came back, he was surrounded by envoys from various countries. They demanded that Marin vowed not to take part in the internal German war.

But Marin ignored them at first, but held a grand state funeral for the "300 martyrs" who "died" in North America...

Even Marin himself had a sling on his arm, as if his arm was broken...

In fact, it was Marin's idea to put a sling on his arm. In order to show the fierceness of the North American Indians, Marin felt that he should be injured a little. Originally, he wanted to disguise the scar on his face. However, it is not easy to explain after that. Because, in this era, there is no technology to remove scars. If there is a scar on the face, it may be with you for a lifetime. Therefore, the scars on the face are dressed up, but it is difficult to explain after the fact.

To this end, Marin finally came up with a trick to disguise his broken arm, wrapping a bandage on his left arm, in a posture of "my arm is broken"...

As for how the arm was broken? Marin explained to everyone—this was a brave savage chief named Grom Hellscream in the "Wild Continent", who jumped down with an axe and smashed it... Of course, the stone axe used by others broke Marin first. The wooden shield in his left hand smashed into Marin's left arm, which was wearing an iron arm guard, causing a fracture...

It is said that Marin's guards shot the wildling chief named Grom Hellscream at that time, severely wounding him and dying. But the valiant savage chief cried before his death:

"Orc... Abu, a savage will never be a slave!"

...

If there are future World of Warcraft players, they will definitely spray - Nima, steal the plot of the glass slag, be careful people sue you for infringement. However, Marin has traveled hundreds of years ago, and there is a kind of glass slag chasing after him...

...

With a serious expression, Marin, despite his crippled left arm, insisted on holding a grand state funeral for the 300 "warriors who died in battle" in the wild continent. And the envoys of various countries who stayed in Aurich were all present to watch.

Through the mouths of these envoys, the whole of Germany will soon know that Marin, who is rampant in the European continent, has suffered a great loss in the hands of the natives of the wild continent. Not only did 300 people die, but he also took his own arm...

Marin kept emphasizing to everyone that those people came and went without a trace in the dense virgin jungle, and were good at hiding and releasing cold arrows. In terms of head-to-head combat, they are by no means the opponents of Beihai soldiers. However, the other party likes to ambush in the jungle, which is extremely difficult to deal with... Anyway, it can be summed up in one meaning - the natives of the wild continent are very insidious and vicious, and it is very dangerous...

To put it more explicitly, it means - America is very dangerous, don't rob it!

...

After publicizing the danger of the "Wild Continent", Marin seemed to be severely hit, and his mood was very low. He also agreed to the unreasonable demands of the envoys from various countries to swear that he would no longer participate in the war for hegemony within Germany.

However, when taking the oath, Marin specifically stated that if someone took the initiative to attack Beihai Kingdom, he would also fight back. At the same time, if someone is disrespectful to the Holy See, he will also send troops to defend the Holy See...

In fact, Marin participated in the religious wars to ambush after his reign. But the princes didn't know, and they didn't know that there would be Protestantism in the future. Therefore, they did not care about Marin's emphasis on maintaining the Holy See. Because, at present, they have no intention with the Holy See. Anyway, as long as Marin does not support the unification of Germany by the Habsburg family, they will be satisfied...

In the end, Marin felt that there was a loophole and added another condition - if someone wanted to destroy his allies (such as the Principality of Clifford), he would also send troops to protect...

There is no denying this condition. Anyway, as long as Marin didn't help the Habsburgs unify Germany, the princes would be satisfied.

In the end, Marin and the envoys from various countries agreed to pick a day, probably at the regular meeting of the Worms Empire Conference in July this year, to sign a written agreement in public. Marin will swear in public that he will not easily send troops to destroy the German state, and at the same time will not help certain forces to unify Germany... These will fall on paper to prevent Marin from repenting... The common method for the nobles to go back is to kill the oath. Witnesses, if you die without a witness, you will not be afraid of being accused by others. However, if it falls on paper, there is no way to go back on it. Unless, he doesn't want to hang out in Europe...
