The Rise of the European Emperor

In fact, it is not that Africans cannot be trained as soldiers who can fight. For example, Tanzania in later generations, with the comprehensive help of China, is very good, known as Africa. In the war with Uganda, Africa defeated the Ugandan army, including Libya's Soviet-style reinforcements.

After all, the funny black army of later generations is mainly because they have a group of funny officers. Those black troops who ran out of bullets without hitting a single shot were often tribal troops, not regular troops. At least, the regular army knew it was aiming for a fight. As for the tribal black army, the AK exchanged for gold sand or oil is basically a mess, just like those actors who don't understand guns in Hong Kong movies. It's a pity that they don't have the sharp guns that the actors in Hong Kong movies can't run out of bullets. Once they run out of bullets, they will be slaughtered...

Moreover, even the regular army in Africa is actually better than the tribal army. They know how to aim and shoot, but once ambushed, they tend to lose control of their emotions and collapse, and then run away. In other words, many African regular troops can only fight with the wind, not against the wind, and have poor fighting will.

Besides, Africans are really badly disciplined...

Regardless of ancient or modern times, black people are free and undisciplined. Although they have a strong body, it is a pity that they are not very obedient and always like to express themselves, just like the brain-dead youths of later generations, they love to show off. In other words, the mentally handicapped youths of the later generations are completely derived from the black culture in the United States. It's like hip-hop music, made by old black people in the ghetto. And young people who have learned this set are often difficult to control in various ways. Moreover, this group of people is similar to black people, some of them are out of line and like to make trouble. However, I still feel good about myself...

At the beginning, when Marin sent people to help train the 3,000 black slave soldiers, many things happened. The 3,000 black slave soldiers are not bad, at least, they are all strong and honest. In this way, it caused the officers a headache at first, and many whips were broken. For ordinary black youth, it is even more difficult to manage.

In other words, according to Qi Jiguang's selection criteria, normal black youths belong to the first of the "four don'ts"—disobedient urbanites...

Of course, there is a difference between the two. Qi Jiguang doesn't want people from the city because they have seen a lot of the world and have their own ideas. Therefore, do not obey orders. Black youths, on the other hand, are purely itchy, and just don't listen to you... But the two have one thing in common, that is, it is difficult to manage. Therefore, Qi Jiguang simply did not recruit such people...

The 3,000 black slaves that Marin selected were okay. After all, the disobedient ones were killed by the black compatriots who had captured them as slaves. Those who can survive are obedient and honest. At least, it is relatively obedient and honest.

Therefore, although many whips were broken, in the end, the 3,000 black slave soldiers at least walked in a decent line. If you don't play, you can't see any weaknesses.

also,

On Ezo Island, these black people also had the opportunity to practice their courage and eventually become elite soldiers - beating those Ezo people is the best way to train soldiers...

The Ainu people are said to be a fishing and hunting people, but there is a huge gap in combat effectiveness between them and the fishing and hunting peoples in the Northeast. They can't even beat the famous village troops of Japanese village chiefs, so they are suitable for training.

Moreover, during the battle, those fierce Saurons can also stand aside to prevent the black slave soldiers from being defeated and collapsing.

Because of their strength, Malin specially designed a suitable combat unit for them - sword and shield soldiers...

Sword and shield soldiers don't need powerful weapons, as long as they hold a shield in one hand and a single sword in one hand. But holding the shield with one hand requires a lot of arm strength, so many people are not suitable. However, these 3,000 black slaves are all strong and strong, and they are capable of fighting with a single-handed wooden shield.

Facing the Ainu who used earthen bows and arrows and didn't even have iron arrows, these black slave soldiers who held wooden shields with one hand and wore wooden armor were barely able to resist. Moreover, every time a battle is played, there are Saurons on the sidelines, so they don't worry about failure.

In this way, after a few fights with the Ainu tribal fighters, these black slave soldiers will gradually adapt to the battlefield and develop the courage to fight. In addition, he is honest and obedient, but he is also a good defender and guard soldier.

And with these 3,000 "Kunlun slave warriors" as a facade, they can also fool the Japanese court, which is the envoy sent by the Muromachi shogunate to verify the situation.

Although the prestige of the Muromachi shogunate in the "Onin Rebellion" was completely lost, the whole of Japan fell into an era of melee. However, the Kyoto area, including the puppet emperor, is still in the hands of the Muromachi shogunate.

Of course, the Muromachi shogunate is not currently in the hands of the Ashikaga clan, but in the hands of the Hosokawa clan and Ouchi Yoshiko, who supported Ashikaga Yoshine's seizure of power. But the emperor was even worse. He had been on the throne for more than ten years, and now he has no money to hold the enthronement ceremony. Originally, in history, the current Emperor Go Kashiwahara ascended the throne in 1500, and it was not until 1521 that he had the money to hold the enthronement ceremony. The reason why he was able to hold the enthronement ceremony was because the Asakura clan, the daimyo of Echizen, donated 500 kan, so that Emperor Kashiwahara, Empress Kashiwahara, had the money to hold the enthronement ceremony.

And how much is five hundred guan? It is equivalent to five hundred taels of silver. For a local tyrant like Marin, he can easily come up with 10,000 taels of silver...

Therefore, in order to be recognized as the emperor of Qibi, Marin prepared 10,000 taels of silver, so that Emperor Kashiwahara would not be tempted. As long as he is willing to issue the imperial edict, Gan Fu Nobunaga will be able to obtain the legal status of Ming Dynasty, and then have the capital to participate in the feudal hegemony.

In addition, several bigwigs of the Muromachi Shogunate who also controlled the Kyoto area also needed to be bought. After all, Emperor Go Kashiwahara's imperial edict could not be issued without their approval.

Therefore, Marin also prepared a lot of gifts and money for Hosokawa and Ouchi. For the Muromachi shogunate, who couldn't afford hundreds of money for the ceremony, any amount of money that Marin could sell could make them tempted.

In fact, money can't impress them, and Marin can also provide a batch of leather armor inlaid with iron sheets made of old Northeast leather in exchange for their approval.

You know, although the Muromachi shogunate has declined, it can no longer control the daimyos from all over Japan. However, the bigwigs of the shogunate still have the ambition to command the world again. Giving them a batch of leather armor inlaid with iron pieces that is convenient for fighting is also a good idea.

...

In all kinds of thinking, Marin sent Suha, Balhu, Glock and others on the ship to Panama. They will go overland from Colon Port on the north coast of Panama to Panama City on the south coast, then transfer to Keelung by boat, and then be escorted north by the Comte fleet...

After sending away a few people, before Marin had a sip of water, Kohler personally reported that the shipyard in Cork, Ireland was completed...
