The Rise of the European Emperor

"Hey, that's not right... Isn't Albert on Amerigo Island? How did the Indians hurt him? Did the Indians attack Amerigo Island in a canoe?" Marin asked with some doubts road.

Albert's squire Welch quickly explained:

"Your Highness, that's right. Didn't you ask Prince Albert to buy Lower Manhattan?"

"Yes, there is such a thing. Could it be that Albert was injured on Manhattan Island?"

Welch nodded and said:

"Yes, after Prince Albert bought Manhattan Island, he built a trading market on the island to trade with Indians. The local Delaware people are very friendly to us, so Prince Albert this time Went to inspect the trade market in person. But suddenly a group of canoes came from the upper Hudson River, about a few hundred Native American robbers, ransacked the trade market, and shot and wounded Prince Albert..."

Marin frowned and said:

"You can't beat hundreds of natives? How did you do it?"

Welch said aggrievedly:

"We're not ready, Archduke! You know, our arquebuses don't ignite when they're not in combat. Those native robbers came in canoes, and we thought they were there for trade. No Thinking of it, they came to rob. When our soldiers lit the arquebus and were ready, they had already robbed the supplies and boarded the canoe to escape..."

Marin is also speechless. Indeed, the trading market is good, and the Delaware people are very friendly. The soldiers under them are full of food and want to light the match? That's the bad thing about arquebuses, they need to be lit before a fight. Now I don't have a lighter, so I can't ignite it right away. I have to use flint to ignite it first. When the fire starts, I can ignite the match rope... It will take a long time to complete this set...

And this time, the native Indian robbers are trying to snatch goods, especially staring at salt and metal tools. They ran away after robbing them, and before the arquebus could show their power, they ran away without a trace. Moreover, the arrow that was shot at Albert's side before he left, actually hit Albert, which is too coincidental...

Fortunately, the gang of native Indian robbers did not have metal arrows, and the arrow that hit Albert was made of hardwood. Otherwise, Albert is already lying in the cemetery now...

Speaking of which, old Hoffman was full of fire:

"What the heck, a mere savage, dare to hurt my son! Marin, I want you to send troops to destroy that Indian tribe!"

Marlin nodded.

Then go on to ask Welch:

"Have you found out which tribe did it?"

"It's clear, it's a tribe called Wild Wolves, not Delaware, but the Mohicans who live in the upper reaches of the Hudson River..."

"Mohican..." Marin touched the mustache on his chin, and suddenly Xiao Bei's Mohican hairstyle appeared in his mind...

When I was in middle school in my last life, Beckham had his whole hairstyle done because of the heartthrob, and he had many fans. In order to gain the attention of those fans like Xiaobei, many Erbi young people have followed suit with this hairstyle. Of course, the ugly can't blame the hairstyle. Beckham's Mohican hairstyle is very handsome, and the imitators do it, that's funny...

In fact, the Mohican hairstyle is not a Mohican hairstyle, but a popular hairstyle of another Indian tribe, the Mohawk. It's just that Xiaobei's culture is not high, and he thought it was a mohawk hairstyle, and his fans also spread the truth and regarded it as a mohawk hairstyle. Then, it would be wrong to be wrong...

"Are they strong?" Marin asked.

"I heard from the Delaware that this tribe is considered to be a very powerful tribe among the Mohicans, with four or five hundred warriors. Although the fighting strength is not great, they are very familiar with jungle warfare and are good at hiding behind trees and shooting arrows. More difficult. If they lived in the plains with few trees, the army of Twin Isles alone would be enough to pacify them."

"How is Albert's injury?" Marin had long guessed that Albert should be fine. Otherwise, Welch's face was not so calm. But Marin still wanted to confirm.

"It's not a big deal. The main reason is that the alcohol and gold sore medicine you provided, Grand Duke, are very effective. Prince Albert has no infection, so he has recovered."

"Well, that's good. After you go back, you tell Albert to at least wear a breastplate and a helmet when he goes to see those Indians to avoid accidents!"

This time, if Albert was as cautious as Marin and wore a breastplate and a helmet when he went out, even if he was hit by an arrow, he would be blocked by the breastplate. After all, indigenous bows and arrows are weak and difficult to shoot through chest plate armor. It's a pity that Albert, like Marin, are both delicate civil servants and don't like to wear plate armor. Because that's too heavy.

Although they were not physically strong enough, Marin was much more cautious. Having died once, he treasures life very much. Therefore, when going out to public places, Marin usually wears chest plate armor to avoid accidents. And Albert has never experienced the dangers of the world, and he has no precautions. In addition, the Delaware people are really friendly, and they don't wear chest plate armor (in fact, he is afraid of the weight of plate armor)... I didn't expect it, but it happened to happen...

In addition, on the twin islands of North America, although there are also an army of one or two hundred people. However, the combat effectiveness of these people is similar to that of the militia. If you face the Indians on the plains, maybe you can win. However, many people in the wolf tribe will not fight with you in an upright manner at all. They will play hide-and-seek with you while using the terrain to engage in guerrilla warfare.

In this way, even if the firepower is dominant, it is useless if you don't know how to fight in the jungle.

Coincidentally, Marin recruited a group of hunters from the Black Forest...

So Marin commanded:

"Well, I will send dozens of black forest hunters and 1,000 warriors to accompany the Mohican tribe to revenge. With these hunters who are familiar with the forest leading the way, it must be enough to hunt down the wolf tribe..."

Experienced hunters are not only good at tracking, but also can identify traps and avoid the enemy's hunting traps in the army. With them leading the way, the team will be much safer.

But old Hoffman shook his head and said:

"I have to bring a few Alsatian wolfdogs over there. It's easy to find someone!"

Old Hoffman had seen Marin's subordinates breed Alsatian wolfdogs and conduct tracking training. The dogs have strong noses and strong ears. Old hunters are actually better at finding enemies and traps based on footprints and appearance. The most important thing is to find traps.

However, if the enemy is ambushing in the forest, the old hunter may not be able to detect it. After all, those indigenous people who have been in the primitive jungle all year round do not understand disguise and concealment. Hunters looking for enemies and prey also need to infer from clues, and can't see all directions. Therefore, old hunters are also easy to ambush.

But dogs are different. They can detect hidden enemies nearby by smell and sound. If found, an alert can be issued.

However, the dog's brain is not so bright, and it may not be able to detect the traps laid by the enemy. After all, with a dog's IQ, it's hard to understand the trap.

But finding traps is the specialty of an experienced forest hunter. Therefore, it is a perfect combination to combine an old hunter who is good at spotting traps and tracking according to clues and a dog who is good at detecting whether there is an ambush nearby.

With the old hunters around, the traps don't work. And there are wolf dogs, and it is difficult to ambush the scene. Therefore, in later generations, the police used a large number of police dogs, and the army also used a large number of military dogs. Because dogs are really good at searching and finding. Better than humans, except for the insurmountable lack of IQ to understand ingenious traps...

A group of old hunters led a few Alsatian wolfhounds trained in search to explore the path in front, followed by hundreds of musketeers and hundreds of shield soldiers who covered them. The wolf clan with only a few hundred warriors could not imagine it. It's so hard to fail...

With Marin's order, a group of old hunters and Alsatian wolfhounds, as well as 1,000 seasoned warriors, were gathered and prepared to board the ship for New York. When they got to New York, they would go upstream along the Hudson River to find the tribe called the wolves, and then destroy it...
