Chapter 292: I almost forgot, I'm still a big chief

Don't read this chapter first, I'll use it first, in order to mix it up and use it diligently. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info I'm coding words, and I can't finish the code until 12 o'clock, maybe until 1 o'clock. If you can't wait, you can get up tomorrow morning and watch it.

Cultivating wasteland for arable land requires a lot of labor. However, herding sheep does not require much labor. While recruiting immigrants to develop the North MΓΌnster region, Marin did not give up the development of animal husbandry.

For example, last autumn, Marin organized 1,500 ewes of semi-fine wool sheep in England to go to Laayoune in Western Sahara to find male merino sheep there to "borrow", and after nearly half a year of pregnancy, these ewes gave birth to lambs.

After the identification of professionals in the wool industry, it was found that the wool of this mixed breed sheep was finer and better than that of the British semi-fine wool sheep. However, it has not yet caught up with the wool quality of merino sheep.

It's not fixed, though. Some lambs have coarse wool, close to the mother English semi-fine wool sheep. The wool of some lambs is on the thinner side, closer to the merino sheep of the father.

Marlin even breeds to choose the best, so those lambs with finer wool and close to the quality of Merino sheep wool are individually selected and recombined.

The parents of these lambs are marked. Marin ordered breeders not to allow inbreeding between lambs of the same father. Others, as far as possible, let the fine-wool lambs, when they grow up, pair up and breed with each other to breed a stable fine-wool breed.

After selection, 1,500 ewes of British sheep were born, 2,800 lambs were born, and a total of 700 fine-wool lambs were selected for the development of new fine-wool breeds. The remaining 2,100 lambs, although the wool weight may not be as good as the other 700 lambs, is not bad. At the very least, the quality of their wool is better than that of British semi-fine wool sheep.

After that, Marin raised the 700 mixed-breed lambs with very fine wool and reached the level of fine wool sheep in a separate enclosure, and specially hired two disciples of Mo Rigen to take care of them, so as to ensure their health. When they reach 12 months of age, they are selecting rams and ewes of different sire lines to breed in order to obtain a stable breed of sheep. In the case that both parents are fine-haired, it is easy to breed a stable breed of fine-haired. Mixed-breed breeds are unstable and may be more like their mothers or more like their fathers. But two hybrids that are more like the paternal line, and if they continue to breed, there is a great possibility that a breed that is more like the paternal line will be bred.

However, with only 700 fine-wool lambs, Marin felt that it was too few......

As a result, the 10,000 ewes that Van Goley transported back through the Beihai Chamber of Commerce were loaded onto the ship and embarked on the journey to the Laayoune Merino sheep breeding base to "find a husband......

Because there were 10,000 Merino sheep, Marin seemed to take it very seriously. Therefore, he transferred most of the ships of the shipping company to transport the ewes to Western Sahara to "find her husband". At the same time, in order to ensure the safety of the fleet, Marin sent all the warships to escort the sheep convoy south.

As a result, the size of the sheep transport fleet has reached a huge 85 ships. Among them, 50 sheep carriers and 35 ships (10 500-ton warships and 25 250-class armed merchant ships) were escorted.

When 85 large ships of more than 200 tons passed through the English Channel, the British Navy and the French Navy were taken by surprise when they were facing each other across the sea.

In particular, the British Navy, at this critical moment of life and death, thought that this new fleet was a helper found by the French, and almost launched an active attack. Fortunately, Johnson endured in the end and did not attack rashly, otherwise, the 35 East Friesian warships would definitely teach the British Navy how to behave in minutes. After all, they were all gunboats with full ammunition.

However, unless it is absolutely necessary, the fleet under Marin will not take the initiative to provoke the British fleet. Although it can be won in battle, the consumption of gunpowder in naval battles is too great. After a sea battle, although it can be won, the gunpowder will also be consumed about the same. Marin, who was accustomed to planning for a rainy day, had long ordered the navy to exercise restraint.

Therefore, when this fleet passed through the English Channel, it sailed along the median line of the Channel, impartially, and expressed its attitude of not wanting to enter into the conflict between Britain and France.

After seeing Marin's fleet choose to sail in the middle, the British finally breathed a sigh of relief. At least, that's not the enemy's fleet. You know, the current British Navy has only more than 100 warships. And on the French side, there were also fifty or sixty warships. If this fleet of eighty or ninety ships were on the side of France, the British Navy would have to be in the cup. If the British Navy has a cup, then the United Kingdom is also a cup. Because, if the main force of the British navy is finished, the English Channel will be undefended for the French. When the time came, the French transported the main forces of the army to the opposite bank......

At this time, Britain was at its weakest. Because the main force of the army is on the island of Ireland, as long as the main force of the French army can cross the sea and surround London. Destroying Britain is a piece of cake.

The French, on the other hand, feel sorry for it. Because, if only the British had a conflict with this huge fleet. In this way, this fleet and the British navy will lose both, and the French fleet will be able to take advantage of the bargain and destroy the British fleet. However, the British seemed to be very restrained and did not dare to take the initiative to provoke. And this fleet, also very honest, ran directly to the middle line to sail. And then, the fleet, just like that, disappeared into the English Channel......

At this time, thousands of miles away, the Laayoune Oasis in Western Sahara now contains more than 800 Merino sheep. Western Sahara has a dry climate, which is ideal for the breeding of merino sheep. Therefore, in the past three years, the 100 pairs of Merino sheep in Western Sahara have expanded to more than 400 pairs. The number of rams reached 408.

However, at this moment, these 408 merino rams do not know that they will usher in a new batch of "British girlfriends...... Moreover, this time, the number of these "British girlfriends" is somewhat large, and the total number reaches a terrifying 10 thousand......

In other words, these 408 rams, on average, can get 24.5 "**" per sheep. It's just that I don't know, after the end of this breeding, will there be a merino ram X sheep to die...... After all, it is really difficult for a ram to breed with 24 and a half ewes...... Moreover, breeding is not a one-time success. Often, rams and a ewe have to try a few more times......

Maybe those single sheep will envy them. However, if there is too much, it is not necessarily happiness. Anyway, whether those rams have their eye on those English ewes or not, they have to go. Whether it is Bingbing in the sheep world or Sister Feng, they must all be on the ground without leaking......

Think about it, if the ewes are all ice in the ewe world, then the ram may be enjoying. But if it's not a coincidence, all the people who are assigned are Sister Feng in the ewe world, and at least 24 rounds will come, and anyone will have to collapse......

Therefore, this kind of breeding that is not selected for the object may not be enjoyable......

"10,000 British Girlfriends (**)" is coming, and I don't know if the 408 merino rams in Western Sahara are ready...... At that time, will the kidneys still be enough......
