Chapter 1223: The Great Purge Plan

Of course, it was not only these two princes who sought the secret of the high grain yield of the Beihai Kingdom, but also other people. The main ones were revealed by some wandering knight officers of the Beihai Kingdom when they returned to their hometowns to visit relatives. Most of it was unintentional, but their father and brother were obsessed. After all, if you get this kind of means, you can develop your own family. If it is dedicated to the respective monarch, a hereditary baron cannot escape.

Although Marin has repeatedly ordered that leaks secrets are strictly prohibited, it can't stop some wandering knights from being greedy. Someone talked nonsense as soon as they got drunk and accidentally leaked the secret.

For example, the current unlucky company captain who was caught by Kohler's spies in front of him was spying on the fertilizer processing plant, and that's how he leaked the secret in the first place. Then, under the coercion of his father and brother, he began to explore the secret of fertilizer.

Marin suddenly had black lines on his head, and then gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth:

"Thoroughly investigate all the wandering knight officers, and all those who have the habit of talking drunk and nonsense, and examine them all! I'd rather kill by mistake than let go! ”

Marin knows that people are different when they are drunk. For example, Marin himself likes to fall asleep when he is drunk, for example, he will fall under the table, but he doesn't talk much.

And some people are drunk, they will get drunk and go crazy, and they will smash indiscriminately, which is the legendary drunken madness. This kind of person is very harmful to society, but Marin doesn't care because they don't leak secrets.

There are also people who like to sing and cry, and Marin doesn't care. What really makes Marin care is the ones who like to brag when they are drunk. These people, when drunk, will inadvertently leak some secrets by bragging.

Therefore, Marin asked Sauer to cooperate with Kohler and jointly investigate the officers in the army who were born as wandering knights. All those wandering knights who are drunk and love to brag and return to their hometowns to visit relatives more often will be included in the investigation list.

Of course, Marin gave them a chance. If the secret was leaked inadvertently and the secret was not inquired about afterwards, Marin planned to persuade his father and brother who knew the secret to move to Beihai Country with their whole family. Otherwise, they will be destroyed.

And those who find out the secrets of fertilizer afterwards will be executed, and Ma Lin, who knows the news, will also send someone to assassinate them, who knows who will die.

As for those who deliberately leak secrets in a sober state, then not to mention, there is absolutely no forgiveness. Even the nobles of the enemy countries who contacted him had to die, even the princes......

"Go, pick a bunch of spies who are proficient in assassination and escape. This time, I'm going on a killing spree! Marin instructed Kohler.

Then he turned to Schwartz and said:

"Tell those officers who were born as wandering knights - either bring all their families to the North Sea Country, or cut off contact with them......"

Schwartz was stunned:

"Wouldn't that be bad? You know, there are many officers in the army who are wandering knights. If they don't cooperate, we don't have officers to replace them......"

"Have you forgotten about my Junior Officer Crash Course?"

As early as seven or eight years ago, in order to solve the problem of insufficient number of officers, Marin founded a crash course for young officers with a scale of 200 people.

Now, seven or eight years have passed, and these children have long since graduated, and they are all in their twenties. However, because of the speed of Marintu later, he recruited a group of wandering knights who came to defect, resulting in not many positions in the army. These 200 young officers will hardly have a bright future. What's more, this crash course is not one, but three, with a total of 600 people. At present, most of them have no place to arrange, so they have to arrange for them to fight in the militia camp first.

Although these people are inexperienced, they have solid basic skills, and middle and high-ranking generals are certainly not good, but it is still possible to replace some middle- and lower-level officers.

And according to Sauer's intelligence, it seems that there are no people among the middle and high-ranking generals who want to take refuge in other countries. After all, the life of middle and high-ranking generals in Beihai Country is very good, and the land given by Marin is enough and the income is high enough.

Basically, the income of the middle and high-ranking generals of the Beihai Kingdom is too much to spend. Because, the output of their estate is very high. Unlike the nobility of other vassal states, most of them are in deficit. That's why fools want to change jobs.

Only those middle- and lower-level officers who are not as mixed up as they want will want to change jobs. Because they have little land in their hands, it does not bring them a very rich life. Moreover, their titles are not high, and they have not even been mixed up through their exploits. Therefore, they will have the idea of "finding another job".

……

Therefore, this time, Marin plans to use fake death to clean up the army, so as not to have accidents in the future.

He still overestimated the discipline of some people, and thought that people from the knight family were honest. But in fact, when other princes offered such conditions as a baron, there were still wandering knights who succumbed. After all, the baron's territory is large enough, his status is high enough, and he can be passed on.

Fortunately, Marin kept his hand and set up a fertilizer processing plant to hide secrets, so that the secret of fertilizer was not spread everywhere. Otherwise, it is estimated that all of Europe will know by this time.

Therefore, those middle- and lower-level officers who want to betray now, although they know the magic of fertilizer, they do not know much about the composition of fertilizer. And the 400 veterans who had seen Marin use manure and fish bone meal in the early Qing Dynasty, because they were born civilians and their families had moved to Beihai Kingdom, they had no idea of betrayal.

Moreover, the other princes never thought of wooing those veterans. Because, the European princes who cling to tradition look down on those veterans who are from civilian backgrounds. Even if they are wooed, they will choose to woo those wandering knights from aristocratic families, so as not to be dragged down and forced into qualification......

But in this way, it narrowed the scope of reconnaissance for Marin. Because, the total number of wandering knights in the North Sea Country is fifteen hundred, and there are a thousand in the ranks of the lancers. But the lancers were resident in Aurich and were heavily defended and difficult to touch. Therefore, Marin only had to check the other 500 men, and focus on the Third Army stationed in Schleswig and the Sixth Army in the Ruhr area. In this way, it also saves a lot of trouble.

Even if half of those 500 people were purged, Marin still had three or four hundred graduates of the crash course for young officers in his hands and no place to arrange them, but he was not afraid that there would be no one in his hands.

Although, those who were purged must have better combat experience than those young children of the crash course for young officers. However, a person with two minds, even if he is experienced, Marin still has to prevent them from stabbing in the back on the battlefield. Just like in the "Battle of Weishui", the general Zhu Xu shouted "the Qin army is defeated" behind the formation of the former Qin army, which shook the military spirit of the former Qin, causing the retreat to become a rout, and the former Qin army, which had an absolute advantage in numbers, was defeated...... Such an example is in the forefront, and Marin has to guard against ......

Therefore, Marin would rather replace the capable but double-minded wandering knight officers with the less capable but loyal enough teenage crash course officers. Although the combat effectiveness will decrease, it will not cause problems on its own.

Besides, their lack of experience can also be tempered through combat training.

Of course, Marin did not fail to give those officers who were born as wandering knights a chance - if they could bring their fathers and brothers and other relatives to Beihai Kingdom, or cut off contact with them, they could still continue to be reused. Only half-hearted people will be purged......

But after passing the lessons of this incident, Marin will no longer easily recruit wandering knights from outside. Unless, the other party can bring all the family members to Beihai Kingdom. Moreover, as the teenagers in the school run by Marin grow up, Marin does not have to worry about the problem of talent replenishment......
