Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty
Chapter 885 Mercenary Regiment
Chapter 885 Mercenary Regiment (Second Change)
Earl Kane spoke righteously, as if the Kingdom of Poland could fight against Prussia for Ming as long as you were willing to sell them those powerful firearms.
"Then may I ask your Excellency, are you willing to sell the territory of the Kingdom of Poland to this king?" Liu Hongjian did not answer directly, but asked a strange question.
"How is this possible, respected Lord Daming, the territory of the kingdom is the foundation of our existence, and His Majesty John cannot sell the territory." Earl Kane answered hastily.
"Yes, you still know this, but firearms are also the foundation of Daming's reputation. If you want to buy Daming's foundation, shouldn't you at least take out your own foundation to buy it, so that it will appear sincere, right? ?" Liu Hongjian was not angry, but argued with reason.
In fact, a normal king would not agree to the matter of buying and selling land, unless this person is a bit tough, such as the former emperor of the Raksha Kingdom, who sold the huge territory of Alaska to the rice guy for 800 million beautiful knife.
"This..." Earl Kane didn't know how to answer the question.
He is also a sensible person, so he naturally knows what a powerful firearm means.
At present, almost all musketeers in the European countries use large square formations, and the power of firearms among the countries is also similar. If the two countries want to win or lose, it depends on discipline and the courage of the soldiers.
Originally, this situation would continue for at least 200 years. It was not until the American Civil War that this large square formation was slowly eliminated in the final bloody.
However, the emergence of Ming howitzers and bolt-action rifles broke the original balanced situation. As long as Daming is willing to sell these firearms to Poland, Poland will be confident enough to train a stronger army to destroy its strong neighbor Prussia.
Liu Hongjian was still very calm in his heart. This was a kind of calmness from the superiors. His meaning was very clear. Perhaps Poland had not thought of using these weapons to attack Ming Dynasty at this time, but what about in the future?
Just as the State of Poland refused to lend a loan to Daming, Liu Hongjian's statement existed, which left Earl Kane at a loss as to how to answer it.
"Actually, it's not impossible at all. If we want to protect your country, we still have the opportunity to cooperate." Liu Hongjian's words broke the awkward silence like the sound of nature.
"Oh? Please tell me, my lord." Kane was surprised, but immediately corrected his expression and asked.
"My lord once met a group of dark-skinned people in the land of Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty. May I ask His Excellency Kane if he knows where these dark-skinned people came from?" Liu Hongjian asked.
"My lord, of course I know that all these black people are from Levia, and the people living there are all black-skinned. I don't know why the lord asks this?" Kane was very puzzled. He didn't know what these black people had to do with buying arms. .
"Oh? I just wonder if your country of Poland can get some for this king." Liu Hongjian said again.
As a five-good young man who has received nine years of compulsory education, he certainly knows where these black people come from, but the Beiyang Navy of the Ming Dynasty is now overwhelmed, and the outer seas are blocked. Time is a bit difficult.
"That's easy to say. What do you mean, as long as I can get these black people for you, can I exchange them for arms?" Earl Kane said calmly but secretly delighted in his heart.
The triangular slave trade has been going on for hundreds of years, black people are the least valuable, as long as you have money, Ming can buy them from most European countries.
Kane was secretly delighted that Daming had found him first, and he might be able to get those powerful arms at a very low price. If this matter is settled, His Majesty John might be able to promote his title. After all, powerful arms are a thing of the past. Great credit.
"Hehe, Your Excellency Kane, you may have misunderstood. This king cannot sell arms to your country. Even if I agree, the Ming court will not agree. In Poland, without your Majesty's permission, what is the crime of selling arms without permission? ?”
"Of course it's a capital crime, you're going to be hanged!" Earl Kane would rush to answer.
"Yes, you also know that it is a capital offense, do you want me to die?" Liu Hongjian glanced at Kane to see his displeasure.
"No... no, my lord, you are a friend of Poland, how could we have such an idea? It's just that I really don't understand what you mean, what do you want black people to do? Servants? They can't do it with their clumsy hands Serving you tea and water." Earl Kane hurriedly explained.
"I don't need them to serve tea and water. To tell you the truth, I want to form a mercenary army, a mercenary army composed entirely of black people." Liu Hongjian said lightly.
This idea came about after the Kremlin was taken down. The situation in Europa is very complicated. There are many conflicts between many small countries, and there will be a fight every now and then.
Although Daming's army is powerful, it is very difficult to transport supplies and troops from the faraway pass, and this land actually has no population, so he doesn't know how the imperial court will deal with it.
But what is certain is that the imperial court should not send heavy troops to guard so far away, and even if there is a garrison, it is impossible for Ming Dynasty to easily interfere in the internal affairs of other countries.
But mercenaries are different. They have no nationality, and they can fight for whoever is willing to pay, and they don't have to worry about pensions.
The key is that the employers are all European countries, which means that this legion can travel among the European countries.
And the reason why Liu Hongjian didn't hide it from Kane was because it was unnecessary. As long as they saw the firearms and equipment of this mercenary, anyone with a discerning eye would immediately know the source of this mercenary group.
But so what?Strong is strong, if you don’t hire, your enemy will hire. The Europa people may be delighted at being able to hire such a powerful army, no one cares about the source, as long as they can beat their opponents.
"This king will start to train this army to be no less than the expeditionary army. Of course, this army will not train in the territory of Ming Dynasty. It is an independent organization and has nothing to do with the court of Ming Dynasty. If your country needs He, you can hire him to fight for you!" Liu Hongjian said seriously.
"Of course, as an insider and contributor, this army can give priority to protecting the security of Poland, and I can give you a [-]% discount on the hiring price, how about it?" Seeing Kane's silence, Liu Hongjian looked at Earl Kane asked.
"This..." Kane seemed to be weighing the pros and cons, frowning slightly.
"Hehe, even if you, the Netherlands, are not willing to help, other countries will help, and it's not that this king refuses to pay." Liu Hongjian laughed.
He was telling the truth. In addition to Poland, the countries in Europe he had dealt with were Franchi, big and small. These two small countries had always guarded the favor of Ming Dynasty, and they were relatively close to Levia.
But in line with the principle of not putting all eggs in one basket, Liu Hongjian will still give priority to the Kingdom of Poland. First of all, this country is close enough to the Raksha Kingdom. Even if something goes wrong, Liu Hongjian will be able to deal with it.
The big deal is to destroy Poland directly. Anyway, the neighbors are so close. Hitler is not the only one who can fight the blitzkrieg. Liu Hongjian is also fine.
"I think there should be no problem, but I need to report to His Majesty John, you should understand, and I need to know about how many blacks you want?" Kane immediately figured out the pros and cons.
This is a business, black people can sell it for money, and get a favor from Daming, and indeed, as Liu Hongjian said, even if the Kingdom of Poland is not doing business, there will be people doing it.
"I need 2 people. In addition, the supply of this army temporarily needs the support of the Polish state. Of course I will pay for it."
