However, when making specific arrangements, Marin discovered a very serious problem - these officers seemed to be brainwashed enough...

No wonder, when Marin was founding the crash course of young officers, he did not fully cooperate with Bishop Taylor, a brainwashing expert, to help him train brainwashing priests like political commissars. Therefore, there were no brainwashing priests who were specifically responsible for political work propaganda in the officers' schools on Texel Island. And because Marin almost forgot about the officers' schools in this remote area, they did not equip them with propaganda missionaries. Therefore, the "ideological education" of these officers was very insufficient and they did not have fanatical worship of Marin. Unlike those primary school graduates, because of brainwashing every day, they were excited and even burst into tears when they saw Marin.

Looking at the 200 calm officers in front of him, Marlin suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. So, he selected two political propaganda missionaries who had the strongest deception ability and personally taught by Bishop Taylor, and joined the officer students' teaching group, responsible for "reasoning" these officers and students every day and promoting Marlin's greatness...

If these officers are impatient in their lives, then I feel embarrassed. Even if this person is talented, he will not be able to stand out in the future. Because it is unreliable...

However, these young people are only about 22 years old and are still very young, and are very easy to fool. Therefore, Marin thinks that most of them should be able to "save". If they are stubborn, they cannot be used...

Even their instructor Gustavo must participate in this kind of "political propaganda" every day to "correct his thoughts". If the more ill-behaved, the more abilities it is, the more harm it will be...

It is because of this "correct thinking" problem that many heroes and generals have fallen into trouble throughout the ages - Han Xin was ordered by Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang, to kill Empress Lü because of his arrogance, although he was extremely capable; the famous general Zhou Yafu was deliberately killed because of his arrogance and was worried that the prince could not surrender to him; Zhu Yuanzhang was even more amazing, and in order to worry that his grandson Emperor Jianwen could not accept those heroes, he directly started a massacre and slaughtered all the heroes...

Although Marin is not as ruthless as Zhu Yuanzhang, he does not like his subordinates who are "not well-thought". Although he will not kill them, he will never reuse them. Why can Schwartz, Kahn, Kohler and Schor be valued by Marin? Except for their earliest followers, they have always regarded themselves as Marin's servants. Although they became generals and ministers, these people still do not change their original intentions and regard Marin as their masters. Therefore, they can continue to reuse Marin.

Marin later recruited many officers from the Knights family, such as Frenzberg, the father of the German-Yiyi-Yi mercenary in history. Some people have even higher talents than Schwartz, such as Frenzberg. However, Frenzberg is not loyal enough. Maximilian I waved his hand and immediately came over happily and shook Marin away.

It was because he was broken by Frenzberg that Marin attached so much importance to the issue of loyalty in the future. Some generals in the army were more talented than Schwartz, but because they came from a noble family, they valued the family very much and gave priority to the interests of the family rather than Marin's interests, just like those aristocratic families in China. Therefore, Marin could not fully trust them. He even planned to use those students who were still in school to replace their status in the future. In this way, Marin could truly control the army. Unlike now, Marin has always been worried about defeating the battle. Because when fighting a battle with the wind, many people will come to the battle. But when you even lose, those who are not loyal enough will leave one after another. Only those who are brainwashed enough and loyal to fanatic will continue to follow Marin regardless of victory or defeat.

...

Of course, it is too early to say those things. Because if you can think correctly, even if you let Taylor's outstanding students fool you, it will take some time to see the results.

Nowadays, Marin still needs to further examine the talents of these officers. Whether they can be used will take some time to see. Before seeing it, Marin did not mind examining the basic skills of these people.

Therefore, on the way to Rome, Marin decided to bring these 200 officers. In addition, Marin would bring 100 guards and 200 scouts to protect the safety along the way.

In this way, Marin brought 500 soldiers under his command, including 200 officers, and set out on the way south to Rome.

Whether it is Marin's guards or Scouts under Saul's command, they are familiar with riding horses. And 200 officers are also familiar with them. Because the officers of this era are all riding horses. As reserve officers, although they are born as civilians, they also have to practice riding skills. Although they cannot reach the level of riding horses like cavalry, there is no problem riding horses on the road.

In order to further examine the level of the 200 officers, Marin ordered the 500 troops to be divided into two parts and camped separately - 100 guards and 200 scouts were in groups with Marin, while the 200 officers were camped independently and did not go with Marin and the others. Moreover, the eight veteran captains were not allowed to guide them.

The reason for this is that Marin wanted to cultivate these officers to camp and deploy defense during the march. In the future, they may lead troops to fight independently. Crack camping and guard against enemy attacks are the most basic abilities. This time, the way to Rome is a good opportunity to exercise.

Therefore, Marin asked these 200 officers to camp independently and gathered with Marin's main business for 500 meters. Not only that, Marin would also send scouts to harass them in the middle of the night. If the scouts were found, praise them. If there was no response, let the 8 veteran captains scold them...

...

Sure enough, these young officers were still too young. In the middle of the night on the first night, the scouts sent by Marin easily covered the mouths of the night guards who were responsible for guarding the camp gate... Of course, they did not wipe their necks, after all, they were their own people...

Then, because there were loopholes in the camp, the scouts sneaked into the camp... If there was a real war, it would be tragic. Maybe a "beheading operation" would be...

Along the way, these young officers were fooled by the group of experienced scouts under Saul and almost cried. At this time, they realized that the things they learned in the school were just the most basic, many things that had to be accumulated by themselves...

Fortunately, it is not harmful to be hit by this group of reconnaissance veterans. At least, it can make them put away their pride and complacency. They can also be more cautious in future wars.

In fact, these officers who were hit hard did not know that the 200 old scouts brought by Marin, with their ability, most of the European troops will suffer losses at this time... There is actually no shame in losing to them...

However, Marin would definitely not tell the truth about the officers. Otherwise, it would not have been effective in attacking them.

In this way, while Marin marched, the old scouts attacked the young officers. Along the way, Marin actually had fun with this, and did not feel the boredom of the journey at all, and even participated in the night attack test himself...

As they walked, the young officers grew up and grew. In the later stage, they could actually resist the infiltration of most old scouts. Moreover, they were used to the use of secret whistles, greatly improving their early warning capabilities in the middle of the night.
