Chapter 1787 Tara asks for battle
Because he was a support player, Marin didn't even plan to equip the 2,000-Mr. Ma Lin had a single sword. He planned to directly equip the 2,000-Mr. Ma Yuan shield with a single-handed short stick like a baseball bat. In addition, cloth strips would be wrapped around the short stick.
In this way, the equipment of the 2,000 Mao Gonggong's equipment is actually like the riot police in later generations, specially used to suppress and resist. These Mao Gonggong's shield players do not need to worry about war. What they have to do is to be responsible for arresting local indigenous people after victory. At the same time, they use short sticks wrapped with cloth strips to beat those disobedient indigenous people to make them honest.
It was perfect for 2,000 Mao Gong, like the riot police, holding shields and short sticks, to catch people with the colonial army and to watch over the arrested natives. After all, these Mao Gong Gong Gong Gong Gong looked strong and a little scary. Moreover, they were only dealing with unarmed Taino civilians. As for the huge profit-taking rebels holding weapons, there were 500 soldiers wearing rhino leather armor to solve the problem.
In addition, regarding the command of the 2,000 Eunuch Mao, Marin and Schwartz, who was in charge of military affairs, decided to select a group of veterans who married Mao Mei to serve as the commander of the team.
Beihai Kingdom has introduced more than 10,000 Maomei. Except for some of them sent to Las Vegas to engage in special service projects, most of them were married to soldiers without wives and young male serfs who performed well.
Many veterans, because of their outstanding combat performance, were assigned to the young and beautiful Maomei. After living with Maomei's wife for many years, under the influence of her wife, many veterans could already speak Rose language. Although they were not particularly fluent, there was no problem communicating with the Russians and commanding them.
So, Marin selected 100 Ross-speaking veterans to serve as instructors and officers of the 2,000-year-old Mao, and directed them to use short sticks and shields to suppress the Taino people's rebound.
Of course, these 2,000-year-old Mao are a perfect newcomer and have no skills. Therefore, they still need to train well. Fortunately, those veterans are very good at training new recruits and can also use Ross, which is really a very suitable commander candidate.
Marin then asked the 100 Ross-speaking veterans to take 2,000 Mao's elder brother-in-law to train. Then, he began to select 500 reinforcements. After one month, the Mao's elder brother-in-law had almost finished training, and then boarded the ship and transported it to Santo Domingo on Haiti Island.
But at this moment, Tara, the governor of Havana in Cuba, learned about Haiti from somewhere, so she sent a ship back to her country and submitted an application to Marin, applying for reinforcements from the Cuban colonial army to participate in the counterattack battle.
The island of Cuba, where the Havana colony of Tara is located, is just west of Haiti, so it is not surprising to know the news. After all, a lot of the food supplies in Santo Domingo were transported from the Havana colony nearby.
As for why Tara took the initiative to fight, it was related to Tara's current situation. Because her ability was the lowest among Marin's first five servants, Tara always felt a sense of crisis, fearing that she would lose favor.
In addition, it is the dying childbirth of the Cuban Governor...
Logically speaking, Cuba should have a governor. After all, this is also an important colony of the North Sea Kingdom. But because Tara's mediocre ability, Gashang Del's younger brother Wiltz did a good job in the Moa colony in the eastern part of Cuba Island, providing Marin with a large amount of nickel ore and sulfuric acid. So Tara was a little nervous.
Although Tara was one of Marin's earliest "members of the Dragon", Wiltz is also very famous. Wiltz's brother Heidel is the governor of Oldenburg under Marin's rule, and it is said that after the old Prime Minister Fat Jeffrey retires, the next Prime Minister is likely to be Heidel. After all, although Heidel was only born in a business family, he was the first medieval college student to join Marin and has a very old qualification.
Therefore, Tara has always been worried that the position of the governor of Cuba will fall on the leader of his competitor Wilts. After all, he is not only capable, but also a brother who has appointed the next prime minister. No matter how he looks, he is more promising than his former servant of Marin.
Then, if you want to compete with Wilts for the position of governor of Cuba, you can only make contributions from other aspects. Obviously, military achievements are a very good option...
You should know that military achievements are the most hard-core contributions from ancient times to the present. No matter how great the contributions of civil governance are, it is difficult to be granted titles and land. However, military achievements are good and they are hereditary.
In terms of cultural knowledge and ability, Tara, a former servant of Marin, who was born as a serf, must not be as good as the engineer Wilts. Therefore, Tara could only find a way out of his military achievements.
But the problem is that the conquering the indigenous people of the Havana colony was his job as the governor of Havana, and even if he won, he would not make much contribution. After all, the local indigenous people were too weak in combat.
However, the rebellion on Haiti this time was different. Because of the indigenous youth Carlos who knew how to make recurve bows, the combat effectiveness of the indigenous people soared. The 500 colonists brought by McCas only had 200 of them had some combat effectiveness, while the remaining 300 were actually the masons responsible for repairing the castle. But the 200 militia-level colonial team was killed more than 40 people. In other words, McCas now has less than 160 armed forces. So McCas is so panicked now...
The natives were not good at siegeing cities, so with the remaining 150 militias, McCas was able to barely defend the Castle of Santo Domingo. However, don't think about going deep into the inland.
Unlike Cuba Island, Tara has been transferred here for ten years. In these 10 years, Tara expanded the number of troops in the Havana colony of Cuba to as many as 2,000. Otherwise, she would not be able to conquer the 100,000 indigenous people on the island.
In addition, Tara also recruited "puppet troops" among the indigenous people and formed a puppet army unit composed of 2,000 Guanahadabei and Sibone.

These "pseudo-army" were given food and clothes by Tara, and they also lived in houses provided by the Beihai Kingdom, enjoying the same treatment as ordinary colonists. Their task is to serve as supervisors of various plantations and supervise the work of the 100,000 indigenous people...
With the help of these "pseudo-army soldiers", Tara and his 2,000 colonial troops were idle. They went around to sweep the territories and expanded their territory with no need.
Just in time, I heard that a rebellion broke out on Haiti Island. So Tara came and asked Marin to fight directly, asking for troops to lead his troops into Haiti Island, and eliminated the thousands of rebels of the indigenous young man named Carlos...
Moreover, Tara said in his letter of request that although the local army of the North Sea Kingdom is powerful in combat, if you want to fight in the tropical rainforest, the adaptation of climate is a big problem.
Although Beihai Kingdom is now well-developed in medicine, it not only has artemisinin for treating malaria and flower dew for preventing mosquitoes, but also has betel nuts that specialize in treating tropical miasma. However, this can only ensure that the local colonists do not die, but it cannot guarantee that the local colonial troops will immediately adapt to the local climate.
Generally speaking, because they cannot adapt to the tropical climate at once, many people will suffer from minor illnesses that are not adapted to the local climate. Although they are not in danger of life, they will definitely not be able to form combat effectiveness in a short period of time. Just like Tara's first colonial army, after arriving in Havana, it took several months to recover and gradually adapt to the local climate.
Now, Tara and his 2,000 colonial troops have fully adapted to the local climate of Cuba and are very proficient in fighting the enemy in the rainforest. If the army is mobilized from the local area, a lot of food will be consumed in vain after a few months of adaptation...
After reading Tara's letter of request for battle, Marin Xin said it was correct. However, what should we do if the local indigenous people rebel? How should we deal with it if the local indigenous people rebelled?
