There were more than 7,000 "Indigenous Rebels" surrounding Guantanamo Castle, of which 3,000 were previously helped Tara manage the "pseudo-army" of Cuban natives, and the leader also gave him a very German name - Hans.
During the siege, the people who went to the village to destroy were basically 4,000 natives who were not puppet troops. However, there were puppet military officers who commanded them to "blame and loot in an orderly manner"...
Yes, smashing and looting in an orderly manner. This is not the real indigenous barbarian army on Haiti, but the puppet army with a strict organizational structure.
When the indigenous people outside the more than 4,000 puppet troops were "killing, smashing and looting" in the village, the 3,000 puppet troops were lined up in an orderly manner and staring at the direction of the castle. The posture looked very much like a regular army...
"This... the indigenous people also have an army?" Baron Mosen from Lorraine was shocked when he saw the situation.
Because, in Santo Domingo, although there are many indigenous troops, they are basically noisy, like a mess. If there weren't only a few hundred people in the castle and the number of people was too large, it would be easy to be swallowed by the opponent by relying on the advantage of the number of people, the defenders could have fought back.
But the "indigenous rebels" outside Guantanamo Castle obviously looked like an army. Especially the 3,000 indigenous people standing in the front row, although the weapons used were very backward, most of them were simple spears made of sharp wooden sticks and earthen bows and arrows. However, when the other 4,000 people went to several villages around the castle to loot and set fire, the 3,000 people stared at the castle motionlessly, obviously afraid that the defenders in the castle would counterattack...
With Baron Mosen's doubts, several other representatives also turned their attention to Tara.
Tara pretended to be helpless and said:
"That rebel leader was once my slave..."
"Your slave? How could he train his army? You must know that those who can train two or three thousand people in a good manner can usually be achieved by the children of the Knights." Baron Mosen said in confusion.
Tara covered her face helplessly and said:
"When we first came to Cuba, my servant named Wanshi (Hans's original name), because he was very obedient and loved to study, I brought him with me. Moreover, because of the lack of manpower to supervise the indigenous people, I asked Wanshi to recruit 100 young and strong indigenous people and train them to use spears and bows to guard against those indigenous people who might be ill-intentioned..."
"But unexpectedly, he learned the means of military command because of this... He was also loyal, but a few months ago, the guy named Carlos there sent someone to drive a canoe and secretly contact Wanshi. Under the instigation of Carlos's subordinates, Wanshi defected from the castle with more than 100 of his subordinates. Then, he also formed a team of thousands of people..."
"Fortunately, I didn't teach them to use muskets, nor did I give them muskets. Otherwise, 'Havana City' would be dangerous..." Tara pretended to have a look of surviving disaster.
After learning after Marin for a few years, Tara's performance can definitely reach the level of a supporting role in Hengdian. In this era, this level is enough...
"In other words, Carlos on Hispaniola was trained by the Spanish, and you trained the stubborn stone leader on Cuba?" Baron Mosen concluded.
Tara continued to pretend to be embarrassed and said:
"It seems...it's like this..."
At this time, Baron Mosen and several other representatives of the German anti-Mark states almost burst into laughter - it was so cool, the colonies of the Beihai Kingdom were really not peaceful! But the more this happened, the more they felt happy!
Tara pretended not to see them laughing and said seriously:
"But it's okay, I have applied for reinforcements from the local area. Our Majesty Marin also decided to send tens of thousands of troops to encircle and suppress these two rebels. However, it is difficult for most Europeans to adapt to the local hot, humid and harsh environment. If we are in the wild, we can easily defeat them. However, if they hide in the forest, it will be difficult..."
Regarding Tara's words, the representatives of the vassal states present nodded in agreement. After all, Germany is currently a densely packed place. Many robbers and rebels found it difficult for the official army to wipe out them after hiding into the black forest.
But no matter how understanding is, they were still very happy to see the Beihai Kingdom's colony becoming messy. After all, it was also very comfortable to watch the enemy's unluckyness.
Seeing several representatives of the vassal states who were very happy but had to control their expressions, Tara pretended to be unaware of it and said "comfort":
"You don't have to worry, my great-grandson, our Majesty has decided to mobilize tens of thousands of troops from the land. Not only can we defeat the rebels, but we will also stay and cut down trees and cut them all down. In this way, those rebels will have no place to hide. One day, Cuba and Hispaniola will settle down. Moreover, our Majesty has decided to save 100,000 healthy indigenous people from Hispaniola, which is severely ill. Then, they will develop them all into believers of the great Lord..."
Tara was like a fool, chattering about the future "plan". Bishop Rugani and several people from the Holy See were "people". He also heard that the Beihai Kingdom really wanted to develop 100,000 indigenous people as promised as possible, so he was naturally overjoyed and nodded and praised.
Baron Mosen and several German representatives rolled their eyes suddenly - Damn, how could we tell that we were worried about him? We were afraid that he would not die! However, the Beihai Kingdom was really willing to invest and wanted to develop 100,000 Christians. This big move simply put the Holy See's flattery to the extreme...
In this time of the Holy See, even if the representatives of several states were unhappy, they had to keep smiling and echo Bishop Rugani from time to time. Especially the two representatives from the bishops were people within the church. Although they were hostile to Marin, they had to pretend to be very happy when they heard the plan to develop 100,000 Christians. In fact, they were very conflicted in their hearts, and they were indeed happy about the increase of 100,000 Christians. However, the person who did this was their boss's rival, Marin, and they were very unhappy...

Seeing the expressions of several people not knowing whether to cry or laugh, Tara felt secretly happy. He remembered a very annoying thing that Marin once said - he liked to see you want to kill me but you can do nothing to me...
In order to prove the achievements of missionary work, Tara was ready a few months ago. Under the witness of Bishop Rugani and other representatives of the investigation team, Tara called 100 local teenagers and recited a large passage of the Bible in Latin in front of the investigation team, which made Bishop Rugani and other church representatives so happy that they all beat their hands red.
So, with these 100 children who can recite the Bible in Latin, Bishop Rugani can completely make a positive evaluation of the colonial behavior of the North Sea...
In fact, Tara also wanted to find more indigenous people to recite the Bible, but few indigenous people could learn the language of Europeans. Tara could find 100 indigenous teenagers who could recite the Bible in Latin, all of which were all done.
In addition to 100 teenagers who can recite the Bible, there are two German-speaking native priests in the church in Guantanamo Castle. These two are geniuses among the natives, and Tara didn't know how to use them.
In theory, such a genius should be very useful to go to the government to help. But Malin was worried that such a person was too smart and really became independent after mastering a lot of skills.
So, later Marin thought of a very unethical method - all the indigenous geniuses were sent to the church as priests. In this way, after these geniuses entered the church's cage, they could not even get married and have children. Even if they were smart, they could only recite scriptures every day and pray to God...
In this way, the genius of the indigenous people was wasted in the church. However, this move could greatly please the Holy See, why not do it?
Sure enough, after two indigenous genius missionaries were communicating with the representatives of the investigation team in fluent German and Latin, Bishop Rugani characterized the missionary work on Cuba Island - it was effective, I hope to continue to work hard...
