Marin was not familiar with this Hungarian peasant uprising. In his previous life, he had only read the historical materials of the German Peasants' War and did not pay attention to the materials of the Hungarian peasant uprising. After all, Hungary is not a German region. In fact, he didn't know that this peasant uprising was also written into the book by the two bearded men of Marne.

Moreover, this peasant uprising, more than 80,000 peasant rebels, 50,000 were executed by the aristocratic army, and almost killed Hungary to the blood.

But now it's different, because Marin has taken a fancy to these prisoners of war......

Why did Marin fall in love with these prisoners of war? This starts with the origin of the Hungarians. In this era, Hungarians were not called Hungarians, but Magyars.

(The Hungarian nation emerged only after the European Revolution of 1848, and there were no Hungarians before that.) The Hungarians after that were actually a new nation created by Hungarian nationalists with the theme of Magyars. ）

The Magyars, on the other hand, are not indigenous to Europe, but nomadic people who migrated from Asia. In the Middle and Early Middle Ages, the Magyars, as a fierce nomadic people, brought great disasters to the people of the southern German frontier.

In the early years, the Magyars were all good at horseback, and they could be warriors on horseback, much like the nomads in northern China. But after the Magyars were defeated by Otto the Great in 955, the Magyars began to settle down on the Hungarian plain, turned to farming, and converted to Catholicism.

Of course, although the Magyars have changed to farming, not all of them are farming. After all, the descendants of this nomadic people still retain many nomadic habits. So there are still a lot of militants in this nation. They were skilled in horsemanship and fought on horseback with sabers. Even in the time of the war, the Hungarian hussars (Hussar) have always been the model of European light cavalry, and they are the strongest group of light cavalry in Western Europe.

Because the people were warlike and warlike, the Church easily recruited 40,000 crusaders here. But because of the destruction of the aristocracy, these crusaders turned into peasant rebels.

Marin didn't care whether the Hungarian aristocracy was doing the right thing or not, he only knew that these Hungarian peasant rebels would eventually fail. Once the peasant uprising failed, a large number of prisoners of war would inevitably appear. And these prisoners of war, who were proficient in horsemanship and even horse warfare, were excellent fighters. Rather than let them be killed by the coalition of Hungarian nobles, it is better to be a thug yourself.

Of course, Marin also knew that the German aristocracy would never allow themselves to recruit tens of thousands of Hungarian hussars. Therefore, he had to find a suitable excuse......

Halfway through, Marin came up with excuses – one was that it would take a lot of miners to develop the Rammelsberg silver mine in Goslar; The second excuse is that he needs a large number of immigrants who can protect themselves, while reclaiming the wild continent, while resisting the local brutal barbarians......

These two excuses can prevaricate the German princes. After all, whether it is going down to the mine to mine, or going to the legendary and extremely dangerous wild continent to reclaim the wilderness, it is the end of nine deaths. Therefore, the princes should not rebound much.

If he dared to say that it was to obtain tens of thousands of hussars, it was estimated that he would be beaten by a group in an instant......

Of course, even if he could get tens of thousands of prisoners of war, he would not all be suitable to be a Hungarian hussar. After all, over the centuries, the Magyars have been influenced by the German regions, and many have become real farmers. Only the people in the southern region, because of the border with Turkey, they still have a strong fighting power in order to protect themselves.

Therefore, even if Marin gets tens of thousands of Magyars prisoners of war, it is estimated that there will not be too many people suitable to be Hungarian hussars, at most 10,000 people.

However, even if there are only 10,000 people, it is a very scary force. Marin planned to get enough Magyars suitable to serve as light cavalry, so that he would secretly hide them in the Americas, and let them print the natives while they were educated in Germanization, and eventually become his reliable thugs.

Thinking of Germanized education, Marin instructed Kohler to send people to the northern region of Hungary to find young priests who knew both German and Magyals, abducted them to the theology department of Aurich University, and let the old Bishop Taylor teach them, and then, following them, went to North America, brainwashed and educated those Hungarians every day, and finally turned these people into his diehard troops......

……

However, considering that it would take a lot of money to buy prisoners of war, Marin was running out of cash. So, before going to Hungary, Marin first went to Augsburg and again found Jacob Brown, the head of the Fugger family. Fugger, asking for money......

"What? Are you going to buy Hungarian mob prisoners of war as miners and pioneers of the Wild Continent? "Jacob. When Fugger heard Marin's words, he was first taken aback, and then, with a twinkle in his eyes, asked:

"I don't know, can I buy some too......"

Marin was startled, and waved his hand again and again:

"No, you have to think about it, your Tyrolean silver mine is in the foothills of the Alps. Once those Magyars have fled into the mountains, your men will be hard to find. Moreover, the Magyars had to flee into the Alps and take the mountain road all the way east. Once you have passed the Alps, you can escape back to Hungary. In that case, you're losing more than you'......"

"The Rus' were not the same, they had been transported from far away Eastern Europe, and they had nowhere to escape but to stay in the mines. Unlike those Hungarians, you can return to your homeland as long as you climb the mountains...... But if they had arrived at my Goslar silver mines, it would have been different. It's the German hinterland, they can't escape if they want to, and my cavalry can easily catch them! ”

In fact, these are all fools, and the point is, Marin doesn't want the Fugger family to rob the Magyar hussars with him! Of course, it's not all nonsense.

Jacob. Fugger thought for a moment and felt that Marin did have a point. The Tyrol region is indeed not far from Hungary, and it is not difficult to reach Hungary as long as you are good at walking mountain roads and crossing the Alps. Moreover, entering the Alps, it is also difficult for his people to search and track. However, he always felt that what Marin said was not true......

Seeing his suspicious gaze, Marin didn't intend to hide it completely:

"Well, Count Jacob, please give me face. I need these Magyars prisoners of war to go to the Savage Continent to fight the barbarians. As you know, there are a lot of barbarians on the Savage Continent, and they are also very brave and good at fighting. And the Magyars are a brave and warlike people, and I plan to take some people to the wild continent to fight the barbarians. After beating the barbarians, you can still farm for me! Marin explained half-truthfully.

Seeing Marin so "candid", Jacob. Fugger didn't want to rob Marin. Marin said so, and if he intervened one more time, it would be to turn his face with Marin. Besides, it is indeed safer to buy Rus slaves than Magyars. After all, the Rus' who were far from home were much easier to control than the Magyars who were closer to home.

So, he agreed to a loan for Marin to buy Magyar prisoners of war. As for the interest, he gave a standard of 15% that is neither high nor low......

After negotiating the loan agreement, Marin and his men left Augsburg and headed to Prague, the capital of the Kingdom of Bohemia, to the northeast to find Vladislas II, who was also king of Hungary. After all, he is the official monarch of the Kingdom of Hungary, and when the time comes, he will definitely take the lead in suppressing the peasant rebellion. Talking to him about buying Magyar prisoners of war is the right person.

Moreover, it is too dangerous to go to Hungary at this time. If he encounters tens of thousands of peasant troops, the cavalry around him may not be able to protect him. Instead of venturing to Hungary, why not go to the Kingdom of Bohemia and talk to Vladislas II, the real boss, about cooperation......
