Strictly speaking, Marin's approach is very inhumane. The ancient northern nomadic peoples were also called "grassland barbarians" because of the common "grassland jungle law". But no matter what, this is indeed a quick way to grow, simple, fast, and effective.
The population under Marin's rule was still too small. More than one million people occupied a corner of the Americas, let alone annexing the entire America? If it weren't for Christianity's monogamy, Marin even planned to buy Maomei and equip each Beihai man with 10 Maomeis to make people crazy. In this way, the population of Beihai could expand several times in more than ten years.
But this is unrealistic. Unless Marin doesn't want to be in Europe...
Therefore, Marin plans to - it's not possible in Europe, is it not possible for me to go to America?
If there are not enough women, I will rob the Indians. The Inca Empire has a population of 20 million, which is more than Japan, and the Aztec Empire also has tens of millions of people. As long as snatch 2 million women from the Inca Empire and the Aztec Empire and make them all pregnant, millions of young and strong people will be added in more than ten years...
Moreover, the white Europeans in this era were more than discriminating against yellow people like Indians. Because Europeans were not confident at this moment. From the young Indian girls on Columbus XX Haiti, it can be seen that Europeans are not opposed to yellow women. As for the noble mentality of Europeans in later generations, it was purely arrogance that grew after beating the whole world. But in this era, Europeans obviously had not developed that kind of arrogant mentality. Moreover, in the original history, the Portuguese imported a large number of women from Japan to Europe to engage in pornography. Many Japanese Warring States poor names had no money to buy iron cannons and other weapons, so they exchanged weapons with women and Portuguese merchants...
Marin planned to collect more than 200,000 young and middle-aged people from Germany to the Americas, and then plunder more than 2 million women from the Inca Empire and the Aztec Empire. Then, let these women be pregnant...
In this way, even if only half of them are boys, one million German young men will appear in more than ten years. Then, Marin trained them militarily... One million German young men who were armed could not occupy the entire America, but it would be enough to control the coast of those rich areas. In this way, they could also be wary of other countries taking over.
Faced with an army of millions of young and strong people, no country in Europe can resist...
Moreover, women introduced from the Inca Empire and the Aztec Empire did not only have fertility functions. Usually, they can also help with farm work and herd sheep. This will also increase productivity.
Of course, in the face of two or three million people, the source of food will also become a huge pressure. Therefore, Marin decided to expand the fishing volume of Newfoundland fishery and reserve enough salted fish. At the same time, he would also introduce enough farmers from India and Japan to help cultivate more land to provide enough food.
In addition, the prairie in central North America will also become an important base for Marin to raise the population.
Why? Because there were tens of millions of North American bison living on the prairie in central North America. In the early days, Marin obtained so many people, so it was definitely not too late to supply food for millions of people. Therefore, Marin planned to simply let the hunting of North American bison. There were tens of millions of North American bison for hunting, and as long as there was enough salt-cured meat, there was definitely no shortage of food.
What? You say you want to capture North American bison as a plowing ox? You definitely don’t understand the character of North American bison. North American bison is strong, fast (can run to 60 kilometers per hour), and has a more ferocious temperament. Such a bison is not suitable for plowing oxes. Otherwise, the farmer will be killed by the plowing oxes.
Therefore, Marin's attitude towards North American bison is to hunt bulls and only retain cows...
Cows can be bred with European cattle and produce new breeds. This cattle was called "Pifro" in later generations. Moreover, the original hybridization method was to breed bulls from European beef cattle and North American bison cows. Of course, at the beginning, people tried to cross with North American bison bulls and European cows, and there were few offspring. Later, they were crossed with European bulls and North American bison cows, but they were successful.
North American bison has a large number and the base of cows is also very large. Therefore, this kind of reproduction has great potential.
Moreover, North American bison has an important characteristic - cows and calves gather together, while bulls gather together. Only during the breeding season will bulls go to find cow herds.
In this way, it is easy to distinguish when hunting - as long as it is not the breeding season, there are calfs and calfs, there are bulls. Then, hunt the calfs and calfs and do not have calfs and kill the calfs and calfs and do not...
A strong North American bison bull weighs up to one ton. After being killed, he can obtain hundreds of kilograms of beef. After being marinated, it can be eaten for half a year.
Therefore, in the early colonial period when food was lacking, Marin could make people hunt North American bison and get enough food. On the one hand, they hunt North American bison bulls, and on the other hand, they obtained enough North American bison cows by driving and putting traps. Then, using the huge base of cows, they introduced European hornless bulls for breeding to obtain hornless piflo cattle. One bull can breed multiple cows, so that more strong piflo cattle can be obtained to alleviate the lack of calves.
Moreover, Marin does not need immigrants to hunt many North American bisons, mainly to survive the years when the early stages of immigration are most lacking in food. When a stable source of food is available in the middle, there is no need to hunt North American bisons on a large scale.
In addition, it should be noted that the distribution area of ​​North American bison is also very close to the Aztec Empire, which has a population of tens of millions. After obtaining women from the Aztec Empire, they can take them to the North American prairie to help herd sheep, while the immigrant men use the beef from the North American bison they hunted to feed these women and their children.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! As for the women who plundered from the Inca Empire, they must have been sent to the Pampas Grassland, after all, there is also close to the Inca Empire. However, the prey on the Pampas Grassland is not as rich as the North American prairie. So... let's plant potatoes there. Anyway, those Inca Empire women are also used to planting potatoes... The potato yield is high and they can support people...
In this way, with potatoes in the south and bison meat in the north... Using natural resources, Marin can obtain two major population breeding centers...
There are many species of wild animals on the Pampas grassland, but there are no excellent varieties like North American bison that can provide a large amount of meat. Therefore, you need to grow some potatoes there, otherwise there will be insufficient food. Fortunately, the potato yield is very high, and the Inca Empire is a country that is used to growing potatoes, so Inca women will definitely grow potatoes too.
The conditions on the North American prairie are much better. Before European colonists arrived, there were almost 60 to 70 million North American bisons on the North American prairie. Even if Marin needs to feed 2 million people, hunting more than one million is enough. Compared with its huge number, this does not affect the survival of the bison. Anyway, so many of the bisons themselves will die every year.
The colonists could hunt and drive away other carnivores while hunting bison. In this way, the number of bisons can be ensured is sufficient. When the population stabilizes and there are enough males to cultivate land and produce food, Marin will stop hunting North American bisons to avoid waste.
In history, after obtaining muskets provided by Europeans, Indians in western North America launched uncontrollable hunting in order to obtain more cowhide and white people, resulting in basically all the North American bison being killed. However, hunting North American bison for carnivore alone has little impact on the number of North American bison.
Of course, cowhide is also a good thing. You can make leather armor, leather bags, leather shoes, leather jackets... It is precisely because of the huge demand for cowhide that the Indians in western North America have started a massacre of North American bison, which almost led to the extinction of North American bison...
Marin will not make such a mistake again. In addition to hunting enough North American bison in order to solve the problem of immigration rations in the early stage, when the food supply stabilizes, he will control the hunting of North American bison and implement a hunting license system to avoid random killing.
