Chapter 409 (1/2)
Stone bear and Felisa reached a very simple condition, five hundred Ferguson rifles in exchange for five hundred horses!
This condition, if placed with colonel Jones, must be a condition of blackmail. But Felisa was very happy and agreed.
If you don't agree, you can't do it. The big leader made it clear that the 500 horses included the redemption money of Felicia Fernando and the remaining 103 Spanish soldiers.
That's right. Now Felisa, they are equivalent to being captured by the stone bear. Well, it's not equivalent to, but it's the fact.
According to the current rules in continental Europe, prisoners can redeem themselves with money.
Felisa and these Spanish soldiers, although they have no money, can entrust others to redeem themselves.
After all, Felisa is the first successor of Fernando's family. Even though his father is still in the prime of spring and autumn, if there is no accident, the title of count Fernando will be inherited by Felisa in the future.
He can't succeed. Now he is the only man in the Fernando family
Felisa had two younger brothers, but one died of cold soon after he was born. As for the other brother, he was seven years old. As a result, smallpox killed him. Feliza was already a second lieutenant in the Royal Spanish Navy at that time.
Now, Felisa is the only man left in the Fernando family. His sisters are obviously not qualified to inherit the title of count Fernando. Therefore, in order to redeem Felisa, the Fernando family certainly does not mind paying more ransom.
After all, the Fernando family is really rich.
Five hundred horses are nothing in the eyes of the Fernando family.
It is no exaggeration to say that the territory of the Fernando family in the new Spanish Viceroy (the colony established by Spain in 1535, which governs new Spain (now Mexico), Central America and the Caribbean Islands) can easily provide so many war horses.
Felisa is destined to take over the entire Fernando family, and he has trained in the Spanish Royal Navy for such a long time, naturally we can see the excellence of this Ferguson rifle. As far as he is concerned, it is definitely a good deal for him to exchange 500 second-hand rifles with 500 horses and 104 Spanish soldiers including himself.
This is also because the stone bear doesn't understand Felisa's position in the Fernando family. If he knows, this guy alone can exchange 500 horses!
Spain is not Britain. Spain, which is struggling to rise for the second time, is far more receptive to new things than Britain and France. In particular, this new rifle, which can change the situation of the battlefield, will definitely be popularized in Spain as soon as it is taken back.
Ferguson rifles can not be promoted in the UK, that is because a group of brown Beth rifles vested interests in the crazy exclusion of the emergence of new rifles. But it's different in Spain. With the promotion of Fernando family, the top three arms manufacturer in Spain, Ferguson rifle will be promoted in Spain quickly.
Spain and Britain don't deal with it, and the stone bear, who is familiar with history, knows how terrible the future empire will be. Although the sun never set empire lost North America, it still had large colonies all over the world, including Canada.
So it's necessary to bleed America with the help of the British, but it's also necessary to bleed Britain with the help of the French and the Spanish.
The stone bear doesn't want the sun never sets in the future, and the Empire will do something similar to the civil war to the new continent of North America.
