In fact, it's not just animal husbandry that Marin has to change to a "quantity first" route. Even for the population, Marin intends to follow the policy of "quantity first".

In the past, Marin paid great attention to Germanization, hoping that the nation would be relatively pure and homogeneous. Even if England was annexed, it was mainly Germanic.

However, as a result, the population growth rate is too slow. It took more than ten years for Marin to introduce people everywhere in Beihai Country, and it only took the population of Beihai Country to exceed 2 million.

Perhaps, this can indeed be ranked among the top in Germany, which has a total population of only 12 million. However, Marin knew that this population was not enough to develop the mainland, let alone develop the huge Americas. Not to mention 2 million people, even 20 million, thrown into the American continent, it can't make waves. In later generations, Lao Mei had a population of more than 300 million, but the land was still very empty. Why? People are good!

Although the land area of Lao Mei is smaller than that of Huaxia, the land area that people can use is large! The large plains and countless large rivers in the eastern part of the country are very suitable for agriculture. Only the western Rocky Mountains are difficult to exploit due to topography. Moreover, there are very few deserts in Laomei, only a small number of deserts in the southwest, near Mexico.

And what about Huaxia? Only the eastern coastal areas are suitable for development, as for the vast western areas...... The Tibetan Plateau accounts for more than a quarter. Then, the northwest is a large area of desert and the Gobi Desert...... Don't look at the area is larger than the old United States, but the cultivated land area is much less than that of the old United States, which is not as good as India. Moreover, the old beauty family disdained to cultivate those barren lands, and only cultivated on fertile land. In China, much of the cultivated land is obviously barren areas, but it has also been forcibly reclaimed into farmland......

Therefore, not to mention the whole of America, even the old beauty of the later generations, Marin can't reclaim it. Even the thirteen state colonies on the east coast that Britain reclaimed back then, Marin did not have enough manpower to reclaim them. You know, when the United States became independent, the total population of the thirteen states was 3 million!

In this way, the Beihai country still has a long way to go when it comes to population growth. How to break the game quickly? Increase women!

Whether it's increasing livestock or population growth, the key to breaking the game is women. The more women there are, the more children there are. If there is a lack of women, no matter how many men there are, it is useless. Because, men do not get pregnant and have children......

Therefore, the best way is to bring in women from abroad. For example, Mao Mei or something...... This is easy to get, as long as you give enough rye two pots, the Crimeans will definitely be happy to help go to Maozi's side to grab Maomei.

And then there's the Indian woman......

There are not many Indians in the North American jungle, and they are not easy to mess with. Because, they are good at hiding in the jungle. But the Mexican Aztec Empire had a population of more than 10 million. As long as one or two million women are snatched from Mexico and have children with men from the North Sea country, the population can be rapidly expanded......

However, it seems that the Aztecs on the Mexican side were particularly afraid of smallpox and other infectious diseases of the Old World. Therefore, before the Aztec women could be taken captive, Marin had to prepare enough cattle. Then, cows were deliberately infected with smallpox, cowpox, and planted for Indian women. Otherwise, once those women contracted smallpox, the mortality rate would be high......

So, cowpox or something, you have to start secretly researching it. However, it can't be released all at once. After all, Marin was still thinking about using smallpox to fight a dozen biochemical wars. For example, sending people to spread smallpox in the city of Paris......

Or, the next time there is an imperial council, smallpox will be spread directly among the princes and all the princes will be exterminated?

The idea was crazy, but Marin held back. Because, if the princes of the Imperial Diet were really wiped out all at once, it would not be Marlin who would really benefit, but France. Because, Marin now does not have the ability to annex Germany at once. And France, as long as it is willing to fully mobilize, can swallow a lot of German territory. Even, when the time comes, Poland will be able to come to Germany and bite a large piece of meat. And Marin, at most, annexed North Germany at that time. Then other regions will be cheaper for strong enemies such as France and Poland. Even, the south side may be cheap Turkey...... When the time comes, it will be very bad......

In order not to make a wedding dress for others, Marin could only press this crazy idea. However, before attacking the Aztec Empire and capturing Aztec women, the issue of cowpox had to be solved. It is necessary to solve not only the technical problem, but also the quantity problem. After all, every Aztec woman had to be planted with cowpox, otherwise she would easily contract smallpox and die......

……

Marin was in his office, thinking about it, making plans for the future. At the same time, the Duchy of Württemberg in southern Germany, the Duke of Ulrich and his nobles fought for the inheritance left by the fallen nobles......

In the past few months, under the guidance of the Chapman knight, who had served as an intelligence officer for the Duke of Württemberg, the peasant rebel army of "poor Conrad" broke through more than 500 large and small estates in the territory of the Duchy of Württemberg. Among them, there are more than 200 noble manors alone, a total of hundreds (some nobles have more than one manor).

Moreover, at the instigation of Wolfe and Chapman, the "poor Conrad" rebel army led by Casbar adopted the terrifying method of "exterminating everything" against those nobles and their families.

As a result, the Duchy of Württemberg suddenly had hundreds of nobles without heirs, and there were no living people......

Then, the more than 200 aristocratic estates left behind after they were killed became fragrant and sweet, attracting the frenzied competition of the living nobles!

Not only the premeditated Duke of Ulrich took the lead, but the other nobles were not far behind. After all, this is a rare opportunity to expand its strength.

Of course, the Duke of Ulrich did not take the same position as the nobles. Duke Ulrich's position was that since those noble families were gone, it would be better to take back their titles and fiefs......

The so-called "reclaim" naturally belongs to the Duke of Ulrich......

Now the nobles of the Duchy of Württemberg are gone-the benefits are all for you to swallow alone, and we drink the northwest wind? Therefore, the living nobles of the Duchy of Württemberg also joined the ranks of the competition.

What name do these nobles have? Blood relation!

The aristocrats of Europe liked to marry each other. Moreover, it was the frequent marriage of aristocratic families of equal status. Many of the murdered small and medium-sized aristocratic families were related by marriage to many families of the same status in the Duchy of Württemberg. There were even some murdered nobles who had marriages with noble families outside the Duchy of Württemberg.

According to the rules, after a certain family dies out, it is supposed that the side branch or the aristocratic family that marries should inherit the title and fief......

The general rule is that if a daughter of the heir family marries, the daughter's son can inherit the title and fief of the grandfather's family (Salic succession law). If there is no daughter, then the brothers inherit according to the rank. If a brother dies, the eldest brother's family inherits the ......

Of course, in some countries, Salik's inheritance law is stricter, and the succession of brothers and nephews will be higher than that of daughters and sons-in-law. For example, in the Kingdom of France, after the death of King Charles IV, according to the relatives, the nephew King Edward III of England should succeed to the throne. However, the French chose Charles IV's cousin Philip VI to succeed to the throne, which led to the "Hundred Years' War between England and France".

Therefore, the matter of inheritance seems to have rules, but in fact, it can also be done. The main thing is to make a different choice between grandchildren and nephews.

But this time the Duke of Ulrich wanted to annex the property of the dead nobles, so he did not want the relatives of the nobles to inherit the estate.

For this reason, he declared that the foreign in-laws of the slain nobles could not inherit the titles and property of the slain nobles. As for domestic relatives...... The branches that have been separated are not allowed to inherit titles and property, and only brothers and nephews who have not been separated are allowed to inherit......

But the problem is that if you don't split up and stay in a noble manor, you will be killed nine times out of ten. Even if Casbal didn't kill them, Wolf and Chapman would have quietly killed them, so as not to leave a disaster......

Therefore, the Duke of Ulrich did this, in fact, he made it clear that he wanted to annex the estates of those nobles who were killed and take back those titles......

However, the living nobles of the Duchy of Württemberg were not vegetarians. It is difficult for them to fight against the Duke of Ulrich alone, but when they unite, the Duke of Ulrich will have to back down three points. Then, the Duke of Ulrich and the united Württemberg nobles fought fiercely over the inheritances of those nobles......
