116 The Five Great Powers
"Zhao Ritian, are you the representative sent by the Divine Favors?"
Schwarzenegger, who was bare in his muscles, looked up and down Zhao Ritian, who came to talk to him, with a scrutinizing gaze.
From time to time, Schwarzenegger's eyes glanced at the convoys that were constantly entering the territory of another space, and the scale of this wave of convoys was beyond imagination, and there were not so many logistics convoys of 10,000 troops that Schwarzenegger had seen!
Of course, this is the internal affairs of the gods, and Schwarzenegger is well aware of the mission he has come here, so naturally he will not say much.
Unlike Cole's freelance mercenary captain, Schwarzenegger is an international mercenary leader with extensive connections in the five major military powers in the all-out war game scenario: the French Empire, the Kingdom of Prussia, the Russian Empire, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and the Holy Roman Empire under the Austrian-dominated Habsburg rule.
In fact, Schwarzenegger was only the spokesperson who was pushed to the forefront, and obtained additional war funds through transactions with the gods.
The Magic Stone Gold Coin has an extraordinary attraction to all the countries in the other space, and Wang Ziming already knows this!
Even Wang Ziming once guessed that the magic stone was one of the energies maintained by the other dimension!
However, after Wang Ziming destroyed several towns of different space forces and harvested a large amount of magic stone gold coins out of thin air, he became suspicious of his own speculation.
Of course, this does not affect the fact that Wang Ziming has affirmed that the magic stone gold coin is the hard currency of the other space now and even in the future.
Of course, Schwarzenegger came here to earn magic stone gold coins from Wang Ziming, a god.
"Yes, Dear Mr. Schwarzenegger, can I now know what team you have here for me to recruit?"
"Of course, the Divine Favor behind you wants to recruit teams from which of the 5 countries do you want to recruit?
As a friendly and qualified mercenary captain, I can give you some common sense information for free.
The British mercenaries were more disciplined, and the efficiency of both the queue and the battlefield formation was slightly higher than that of other countries, and the accuracy of the guns and weapons used in the firing frequency was good, but the British soldiers were more inclined to use the fire to break the enemy's formation before charging, and the bayonet technique alone could only be regarded as average.
The most skilled with bayonets were undoubtedly the mercenaries of the Russians, but their army was of no good use for anything else, and one could not expect a high level of discipline from a group of serf-trained soldiers.
On top of that, the Russians' weapons were the worst, so much so that the Russian GIs had to intensify their bayonet training to increase their combat effectiveness, and if you need a group of fierce men who charge hand-to-hand combat, consider the Russian mercenaries.
It's not that I prefer any country, the glory of the Habsburgs is unquestionable, but the Austrian army really has no merit among the five countries, and because the Austrian army soldiers come from different nationalities, the morale of the Austrian army is the lowest among the five countries.
It can be said that the Austrians are not very good except for the light infantry, but the Austrians can make up for their disadvantage with the number of troops.
Considering that the mercenaries of the five countries are about the same price, the choice of mercenaries from Austria is undoubtedly a loss-making deal.
From the perspective of fairness and justice!
It is inconceivable that such a small country can become one of the great powers by military theory alone, although it is only the tail of the crane, but any country that can enter the club of great powers should not be underestimated.
The soldiers of the Prussian army were trained to the most rigorous, especially in the use of muskets, so the Prussian soldiers had the fastest rate of fire in the world, and the best of them could even shoot 5 buckshot in a minute with a flintlock pistol!
Because of this, the army of no country, except for the French, who did not want to die, was willing to shoot at the Prussian army for a long time, which undoubtedly meant death!
However, perhaps because the Prussian army placed too much emphasis on shooting training, their bayonet melee ability was not outstanding, of course, on the premise of comparing it with the Russians and French.
If only against the army of the Austrians, the Prussians were still good in hand-to-hand combat with bayonets.
Finally, I would like to introduce the French army established by Napoleon the Great, which is the most cost-effective and combat-effective.
From the perspective of a bystander, no country in the world could confront Napoleon's army alone, so much so that the four powers had to unite to form an anti-French alliance to curb Napoleon's development.
The qualitative gap can only be made up for by quantity.
The soldiers of the French, under the teachings of Napoleon, could fight even to the last man, especially the elite units of the French, and I can vouch with my reputation that you will never see a deserter in Napoleon's guards and grenadiers!
Even the most ordinary line infantry of the French are better than other countries, because they joined the army with enthusiasm, and under the excellent military training code formulated by Napoleon, they experienced a lot of wars and transformed into elite units.
Perhaps the French soldiers did not have the same rate of fire as the Prussian musketeers, but other than that, the French regular army had no other shortcomings, high morale was their characteristic, and the brave bayonet charge was also the pride of the French, and at the same price, the French army was the most cost-effective mercenary, not one!
Oh yes, you'd better pick a country to recruit mercenaries, you know, if you suddenly change countries, I'm going to have a hard time here, because when you choose a country, you're going to be blacklisted by the enemies of that country.
As a simple example, if you choose the most cost-effective French soldiers, you will not be able to hire troops from Austria, Great Britain, and Russia, and the price of hiring troops from Prussia will double.
After all, now that the anti-French alliance has been established, Napoleon was not besieged only because the countries were busy embezzling the wealth and land of the backward countries that had been obsolete by the times.
However, the anti-French alliance is not unbreakable, for example, if you choose Austria, you will not be able to recruit mercenaries from France, and the other three countries can also recruit mercenaries, but the price will be doubled!
Only the first country you choose will sell mercenaries to you at a fair price, and any change of country will attract hostility, after all, the country is looking for a long-term partner.
If your chosen country is destroyed, then unfortunately you will no longer be able to recruit mercenaries from the destroyed nation.
Of course, the 5 big countries are very strong, and you won't have to worry about any country being wiped out for a long time! ”
