Chapter 1789: Using the smelter to train your subordinates at high temperature

He was responsible for selecting Hungarian prisoners of war who were willing to go to Cuba and Haiti to go to the Goslar Silver Mine, and handed over to the Knights of Kleiman. It should be noted that this Kleiman is Kahn and Kohler's younger brother. Marin visited Kahn's house for the first time and had seen this guy.

However, Kleiman was a little sad. He could not catch up with his elder brother Kahn, and his mind was not as good as his second brother Kohler. Then he became a half-baked guy who could not make a difference. But his family was very prominent in the Beihai Kingdom. The eldest brother Kahn and the second brother Kohler are now all third-class earls of the Beihai Kingdom, that is, the Earl (the earl is divided into Earl, the Deputy Earl and the Earl of the Earl, and the other titles are the same. Of course, there is only one level at present and no opponent has been opened to the right of the enemy). Although the Earl of the Earl of the Beihai Kingdom is the lowest-level earl, he is also the Earl.

Two counts in one family are both honor and pressure for Kleiman, a guy who is not as good as a martial artist. With the support of his two brothers, he has only barely become a hereditary knight, and his status is 100,000 miles apart from his two brothers.

It’s not that Kahn and Kohler refuse to help him, but that he doesn’t have enough credit…

This time, Kahn went to the Goslar Silver Mine to select the Hungarian prisoner of war army, and Kahn won this opportunity for Kleiman. If he performed well, and then went to the colony to fight two more battles, he might be able to make a lot of military achievements. When the military achievements have accumulated to a certain level, and with the help of two brothers, a baron can still make it.

Before Kleman left, Kohler, his smart second brother, told him about his fate for a long time. Kleman also listened to it, after all, he was not stupid either.

After arriving at Goslar and entering the Lammersberg Silver Mine for inspection, Kleiman suddenly discovered that this seemed very simple!

What is the simple method? Because Kleiman discovered that in the Lammersberg silver mine, in addition to those miners who went down to mine, there was also a smelting area with concentrated smelting furnaces on the surface, which was responsible for putting the mined and screened silver ore into a blast furnace to smel into silver.

There were as many as 7,000 Hungarian prisoners of war helpers responsible for the smelting of silver...

In addition to hundreds of skilled craftsmen who are truly responsible for controlling the blast furnace, most of the smelting areas are responsible for carrying the screened concentrate ore and climbing a ladder to pour the ore into the furnace on the top of the blast furnace. These coolies have been handed over to them since the Hungarian prisoners of war came. In addition, after the smelting is over, they will carry the silver melt in the container and pour it into the model, and cast it into silver blocks and silver bars...

These work not only requires great effort, but also the working environment is quite hot, which is similar to the temperature in the blacksmith shop. High temperatures of forty or fifty degrees are common, and can even reach 60 degrees. Therefore, most of the Hungarian prisoners of war who work in the factory in the smelting area are shirtless, sweating all over their bodies, and they look very greasy.

"It's OK!" Seeing this scene, Kleiman snapped his fingers happily.

Before, Marin and Kohler had told him to investigate who were more heat-resistant. Now, it was obvious at a glance that the prisoners of war who had worked in the smelting area for a year could still be afraid of heat? He had heard that the temperature in the blacksmith shop was higher than that in Cuba. The more than 7,000 Hungarian prisoners of war who had worked in the smelting area for a year must have adapted to the high temperature environment.

Moreover, these coolies who have been carrying ore on the furnace top for a long time are generally of great strength. Otherwise, they would not be selected as coolies in the smelting area.

Therefore, Kleiman directly selected 4,000 more honest Hungarian prisoners of war from the coolies in the more than 7,000 smelting areas and took them back directly. These Hungarian prisoners of war who worked in the coolies in the smelting areas were also willing to serve in Cuba Island. After all, it is very hard to be a coolies in the smelting areas that are hotter than the tropical areas every day. Why not do it if you can go to the colony to be a master?

As for the problem that the mine has lost 4,000 coolies in the smelting zone at once? Kleiman said - choose another batch of top...

Kleiman said it well, after all, when these Hungarian prisoners of war first arrived, didn’t there be so many coolies in the smelting area? At worst, I can choose another batch...

Kleiman's method of choosing coolies to adapt to the tropical climate also made Marin more appreciated. After all, those who can work in the smelting area must not be afraid of heat, and they will not worry about the problem of not adapting to the environment in the future.

Of course, this does not mean that they can adapt to the local environment after going to Cuba Island. After all, the high temperature in the smelting area is dry and hot. Cuba Island and Haiti Island have tropical and humid climates. After arriving there, they still have to adapt to the local climate for a while. At most, they are easier to adapt to the local climate than those who are afraid of heat, and the adaptation time will be greatly shortened.

"Maybe, we can follow this method and cultivate soldiers who adapt to the tropical climate?" Sauer suggested.

Saul believes that people who are used to high temperature environments such as blacksmith shops and smelters will definitely be easier to adapt to tropical climates. Moreover, this method can also be used to test who cannot adapt to hot climates. After all, some people who are afraid of heat cannot stay in blacksmith shops and smelters.

"Okay, that's it!" Marin felt that Sauer's proposal was good. First, through the hot climate of the blacksmith shop and smelter, people who really couldn't adapt to the hot climate could be selected, so as not to change people at the same time. You should know that Marin had replaced more than 200 people in the colonies of Cuba, Grenada and Panama. There was no way, those people were really not adapted to the tropical climate and were very afraid of heat. After arriving in the tropical colonies, although they would not die of bad habits, they were weak and weak, and looked very uncomfortable. This was related to human physique. Some people were afraid of cold, some were afraid of heat, and some were afraid of cold and heat, and there was no way...

After making the decision, Marin further improved the plan and decided to choose coolies in the silver mine smelting area in the future, and all the Hungarian prisoners of war who were honest and obedient and willing to learn German. Because, those people, Marin may continue to be incorporated in the future...

The world is so big that Marin will not stop conquering. Although the scale of the 7,000 colonial army is already large enough, it requires more manpower to conquer and develop more areas.

In addition to selecting honest, obedient and willing to learn German Hungarian prisoners of war as coolies in the silver mine smelting area, Marin also planned to recruit some situations that were willing to serve him from German serfs, and go to the silver mine smelting plant for training. Then, he was sent to the tropical colony.

After all, Marin was a German after all, and he dared not fully believe the Hungarians. What is truly reliable is his own family. He asked the German youth under his control to go to the smelter for several months, and then sent them to tropical colonies such as Cuba and Panama, and served as the core and main force of the colonial army, so that Marin could feel at ease enough...

In fact, the blacksmiths are very adaptable to the hot climate. Moreover, the blacksmiths are very strong and have strong arms because they make irons all day long. Moreover, they are familiar with swords and swords. When they go to the battlefield to fight, the blacksmith is definitely a elite soldier! For example, the powerful general Yuchi Gong of the early Tang Dynasty was born as a blacksmith and was very powerful.
