King of Mercenaries

Chapter 36: Personnel Arrangement

After becoming the proxy leader, Marlin was very excited. The number of people in a phalanx is over a thousand, and it is later, equivalent to a group. In other words, Marin became the middle-ranking officer equivalent to the head of the team. Prior to this, Marin was just a poor wandering knight without inheritance. We must know that according to the level algorithm of later generations of China, the head of the group is equal to the county magistrate. This made Marlin, who had never been a squad leader in the past, excited. But he soon knew that there was no free lunch in the world. Soon, the Emperor and the Earl of Hohenzollern both brought sand to his square. Marin's phalanx is composed of four companies, each with a team of 250 to 300. And even the captain, not civilians can be. Under Marin, there is no knight suitable for this level. Therefore, the emperor sent two knights from Austria, who were directly affiliated to the Habsburg family, very kindly, indicating that they would serve as company commanders. At the same time, the Count of Hohenzollern, Frederick II, also sent a knight from his count to serve as the company commander.

In other words, the company commander of the four company, the emperor and the count will have to go three, leaving only one to Marin himself. In fact, doing so is already a face for Marin. If you don't give face, the four captains' positions will not be left to Marin. The emperor, in order to express his support, allowed Marin to use the penalty if the company leader did not listen to the order. Of course, if you want to dismiss or execute, you must negotiate with the Habsburg family.

In fact, the emperor and the count are not trying to control this small square. Instead, the two amnestys are interested in how Marin has trained a group of people in a more than a month. They sent people to actually "stole the teachings." You must know that in the empire, there are many people in the empire. If Marin's training method is known, you can immediately pull out tens of thousands of people and train like the 100 people of Marin's men. Who can compete with the Empire?

Marin thought for a night and seemed to figure out the truth. Therefore, he decided to leave a hand for a while. Since the Spanish phalanx has been taken out, there is no need to hide it. As for discipline training, look at it. Anyway, people of this age are less concerned about the requirements of discipline. They are more concerned with personal martial arts, similar to the ancient Chinese. After all, the benefits of strict discipline have to be seen on the battlefield. The personal bravery can be seen when comparing. As for the number of captains that the emperor left for Marin himself, Marin thought about it and decided to hand it to Schwartz. Schwartz is a descendant of aristocrats with surnames. Although it is not a nobleman, it is also known as Edler with a surname. Unlike serfs who only names have no surnames. Moreover, Schwartz himself has a good martial arts, and in his own training, he learned riding and horse fighting. Now, Schwartz's horse fighting ability is no longer under Marin. Said that he is a knight, basically no one doubts. Because the Cavaliers are not blowing out of their own. The knight must first have a good martial arts. The civilians want to wear the knight.

In addition, the most important thing is that Schwartz is a literate person. As a descendant of the knight, although Schwartz did not have a horse, he did not have a horse battle, but he also accepted the family's cultural education from an early age. Even the basic theoretical education of some simple military commanders was accepted. And this is something that Marin does not have.

To this end, Marin declared that Schwartz is a knight apprentice recruited by himself and belongs to the trainee knight. Then, Marin personally saved the money, bought a set of half-old plate armor, and equipped Schwartz. As for the horses, Schwartz is still riding the horse. Anyway, Marin is letting him become the captain of the infantry. It is not to let him go to be a cavalry. The problem of horses is not noticeable. Marin and Schwartz in secret made the servant and master ceremony and changed to apprenticeship. At the same time, Schwartz swore allegiance to Marin and signed the contract (Marin as a modern man, does not believe that the swearing of the mouth, but more trust in contracts and contracts).

After arranging his identity for Schwartz, Marin announced that his company's first team leader, Schwarz Lange. Then, Marin successively appointed Bowen Gardner, Hite Basque and Piaget sent by the emperor to be the captains of the second, third and fourth company. As for the following captains (25 players per squad, all bats totaling more than 40 squads), Marin is also a crony, and selected 25 outstanding guys from the previous 100. In addition to the 10 captains belong to the first company of Schwartz. The remaining 15 people were noisy in other companies. Basically, the other three company leaders can only appoint half of the captains.

This method can not only ensure that the other three companies do not deviate from their own control, but also enable these experienced "old people" to "help" (torture) the newly formed company to complete the training. After all, these 25 people are already familiar with the "Marvin training method". In addition, with the square array, it is necessary to select the standard bearer. The standard-bearer is very important on the battlefield. Otherwise, there will be no saying in the ancient times that "the cricket will capture the flag." Marin originally intended to make Kahn the flag bearer, but Kahn himself was not happy. He said that it is still a messy stick that makes it easy. Take a flag that can't beat people, he will feel itchy.

In desperation, Marin had to choose the honest and strong attendant Garland to serve as the flag bearer. Marin's several attendants, Schwartz became the company's captain, Sauer became a scout, Tara became the squad leader, and Kahn had to fight, and Garland had nothing to do. Moreover, although Garland is not in good condition, it is honest and reliable. Moreover, this little guy is also courageous. And, in the previous training, Garland has been the flag bearer. Therefore, let him be the standard bearer, it is just right. As for the second man, Kahn, Marin thought about it and decided to stay with him as a bodyguard. This man has a strong ability to fight, and the mace is so hot that Schwartz can't afford it. Specifically, he can be made into a kind of bodyguard like the Dian Wei of Cao Cao.

As for the quartermasters of the phalanx, it is natural that Kohler has the job. For others, mathematics is not good. However, my mathematics has reached a very high level, but I personally went to account, and some of them fell.

After completing the personnel arrangement, Marin went to the recruitment site and personally selected the soldiers. Of course, as a younger generation, those veteran Imperial officers must choose a warrior before him.

In desperation, Marin had to follow the previous method to select those brave young people who were "honest and sturdy", not afraid of injury, and not easily admit defeat. Marin first selected 800 people, and then he planned to pick the archers. But what made him depressed was that many archers were happy and came back after the last time, and there were not many hunters to apply this time. Even if he is a regular leader, he is a formal official, and he only recruits 80 archers in total. Count the original 20 people. In other words, Marin's hand is only has 100 archers.

He is also helpless, even if he goes to the Earl of Hohenzollern, it is useless. Because there are not many archers in the German region. The hunters who shoot so badly can fully support their own family and there is no need to be a soldier. There are not many young people who apply for shooting. After all, they were disappointed last time, and is no longer coming this time. The emperor, no longer because of the division of Marin, the archer of the district, will once again make an order. Therefore, Marin can only make use of the 100 archers first.

Then, Marin went to the contest, and selected more than 200 people, and added the number of squares to 1,100.

After the number of people was added, Marin summoned four company leaders to divide the soldiers together. Starting from the first company of Schwarz, several company captains went to pick soldiers. Of course, Schwartz naturally took advantage of the pick and pick because of the first pick. The other three, although unhappy, are nominally subordinate and cannot be said.

As for the 100 archers, a bow and arrow brigade was set up separately, and the best hunter named Kovacs served as the captain, also known as the chief of the sergeant. The reason for this arrangement is that there are very few nobles who are skilled in archery. Only those hunters are proficient in this. After the team was built, Marin applied to the emperor's quartermaster for a batch of white cloth, all made into a vest, and painted a square black cross. In this way, the black cross white vest became the biggest feature of Marin's square. Marin's phalanx was later called the "Black Cross Array". After the recruitment of all the second batch of mercenaries, all the phalanxes, lined up, and held a grand oath of allegiance at the South Gate Square in Vienna. Everyone used the oath that Marin had made before the Emperor's flattering, and in the presence of the emperor, completed the oath of allegiance. After the ceremony, Marin arrived in the mountainous area of the south of Vienna in accordance with the arrangement and trained. Only after the emperor and other countries negotiated, they all marched into Italy.
