Although it was just a remnant formation, Marin had to play with it, otherwise, it would be difficult for people to be attracted to him with his background. In order to make himself noticed, Marin specially changed his name from Marin Hoffmann to Marin Hoffmann. Because Europe at this time valued his background very much. "Von" was only found in the names of German aristocrats, and at least a hereditary aristocrat.

Generally, the knight family does not add the word "Feng" to their names. Only the hereditary baron family generally begins to add the word "Feng" to their names. However, a small number of knights arrogantly add the word "Feng" to their names.

The so-called "Feng" actually means to indicate his origin, just like the Chinese people say, "I come from the Wang family of Langya, Cui family of Boling, Li family of Longxi". Generally speaking, the surnames behind Feng are all noble titles, family names, or fiefs and place names, indicating their origin.

For example, "Veng Hohenzollern" means that you come from the Hohenzollern family. "Veng Neumann" means that you come from the Neumann family. There are also places that indicate the place name. For example, when William II was still a prince, he was called "William von Hohenzollern" (omitted in the middle part). After becoming the king of Prussia, he changed it to "William von Prussia". After becoming the emperor of the German Empire, he changed it to "William von German Will".

Marin called himself "Marin Von Hoffman", which was obviously an arbitrary person. Because Hoffman Manor was not hereditary. But no one in the empire has done this. Moreover, there was no online query of ID cards in this era, and information exchange was not smooth. I just added the word "Feng" to my name. Do you bite me? If you have the ability, go check it...

Moreover, if he did not add the word "Feng" to his name, the officials in charge of recruiting soldiers would probably not pay attention to him. Because, at this time, people habitually believed that only nobles were qualified to be officers. This rule lasted until the 19th century. The famous British general Wellington once relied on his aristocratic status to become an officer and even bought a colonel.

In addition to spending some thought on his name, Marin also spent some effort on the residual formation. In addition to previous tactical training and queue training, Marin also practiced the very beautiful whole line formation steering.

Specifically, it is illusion that the enemy did not face the front of his line, but went to the side. What should I do at this time? Marin asked the two men in the middle of the second row of spearmen as the axis, and the entire team "want to go to the right and look at it" and took the two as reference to it and began to turn clockwise or counterclockwise. The outermost step was larger and the innermost step was smaller, achieving synchronous steering... In the end, the entire queue turned neatly at a faster speed.

In fact, there is more than one line array on the battlefield, and there are often many line arrays distributed in fan shapes or other shapes. Generally, special line arrays will be arranged to deal with the flanks of the army. Therefore, there is no need to turn the line array head-on, and it will turn so coquettishly.

But Marin's original intention was not to fight, but to attract the attention of the boss. Therefore, when he plays like this, the performance is more natural than practical. When he is really fighting, who is in a mood to use this performance change? Simple and practical is the truth.

In addition, Marin also created another more practical array change-the hollow square array...

This is assuming that the line array of this side is surrounded - especially when surrounded by cavalry, continuing to maintain the line array is definitely a death. Therefore, in this case, Marin will keep the 10 rows in the middle, and the people on the edge will start, approaching 5 rows in the left and right in the middle, and when the archer moves first, run back quickly and form the backside to form the backside. The 10 rows in the edge will move quickly to form the left and right columns in a square.

At this time, the spearmen were facing all directions, the first row squatted down, and the second row of spears was placed on the shoulders of the first row of spearmen. The archers, in the middle of the hollow square array, shot through the gaps, and shot those surrounding the square array.

At this time, the hollow square formation is like a hedgehog, protecting itself well. If it is a strong rush, there will be great casualties. Moreover, the archers in the middle of the hollow square formation can choose which side of the enemy to hit according to the situation. As long as they enter within a hundred meters, they will be within the range of the archer's attack.

Speaking of which, these two formations have very high requirements. However, the 100 mercenaries who were abused by Marin for more than a month were already a little numb and the people became a little mechanical. Therefore, they actually completed the two formations very well. Of course, it was only possible to complete without interference from foreign enemies. When encountering a real enemy, it depends on the will of God.

Of course, it is also because they have few people. There are only 100 people in total, so changing the array is of course simple. If it is replaced with 1,000 people, it will not be that easy. However, even if 1,000 people are trained to get home, it can be completed. However, it will take a lot longer.

After solving the problem of name fraud and array change, Marin began to consider dressing again. His 100 mercenaries were wearing all kinds of clothes. Although they were not as fancy as real mercenaries, they had already begun to learn the strange costumes of real mercenaries.

To be honest, Malin really wanted to customize a beautiful military uniform for each of these two-person guys. Because, dressing neatly can also give people a deep impression. However, clothes are too expensive now, and Malin himself is too poor. So he had to give up this idea.

Finally, Marin thought about it and thought of a very saving method - he made everyone a piece of white cloth, cut it in half, and sewed it into a white vest that is more cost-effective because of its material and simple workmanship, so it is relatively cheap, with only 8 Finneys per piece. Then, Marin found ink and drew a black cross in front of each white vest. Originally, Marin wanted to draw the iron cross used by the Second Empire and the Third Empire. But it was a bit troublesome to draw the iron cross and it was difficult to draw it. Later, in order to save trouble, Marin directly referred to the square red cross that was easiest to draw in later hospitals and drew a square black cross...

When he saw 100 people in a neat queue, each of whom had a white vest with a square black cross on his chest, Marin wanted to laugh a little because, he felt that the 100 people in front of him looked like temporary medical workers in the hospital. However, this looked much neat than before. At least, it looked like an army, not a group of mobs...

Afterwards, Marin began to think about other flatteries...

For the sake of glory and wealth, Malin didn't care about any shame. Anyway, he would do whatever he liked. If it were in the Ming Dynasty, he would definitely be called a slander...

Through inquiry, Marin learned that Emperor Maximilian I was quite vain. For example, in 1490, he asked the first batch of imperial mercenaries to collectively swear allegiance to him. In fact, most of the mercenaries were for money. Who really worked for you, a poor emperor? He didn't give much money. However, Maximilian I loved this formalism, and everyone could do nothing. Moreover, in the Middle Ages, there was indeed a little binding force to swear allegiance, which was for those who kept their promises.

"Since you like this tune, then I'll play with it!" Marin said confidently.

Then, he began to recall the oaths he had read in his previous life, such as the oath of joining the league, the oath of joining the party, etc.

But after choosing, I finally found that the most irritating thing was the oath of the Third Reich SS on the Internet to pledge allegiance to Hitler...

The oath is as follows:

“I am a brave and loyal SS fighter for my life,

Every comrade in my army is my brother and sister, regardless of origin or status.

Swear allegiance to the Head of State!

The will of the head of state is above everything else!

The head of the command,

More than all truth and law!

Hi Hitler!”

This oath is said to be created by Himmler, the super flatterer of the Third Reich. It not only flatters itself, but also has a very touching number (mainly the first two sentences).

Marin thought about it, changed the oath and became:

“I have been glorious for my life as a brave and loyal Holy Roman Empire warrior,

Every comrade in my army is my brother and sister, regardless of origin or status.

Swear allegiance to the emperor!

The emperor's will is above everything else!

The emperor's order, (This sentence was said by the officer, the original version was said by Himmler, so naturally Marin said by this)

More than all truth and law! (Soldiers shout collectively)

Hi, Holy Rome! (Continue to shout)”

When Marin released such a big move, everyone present was excited. People with culture like Schwartz were deeply infected and shouted with everyone.

"Damn, the head of state is Niu Bi. These grandsons are like chicken blood. No wonder the Germans dare to challenge the whole world in World War II. Their feelings are all over the blood!" Marin thought speechlessly. However, on the surface, he was still shouting with these soldiers. Who can't act? Anyway, Marin felt that he must act like a super loyal minister, like an emperor's brainless fan... At that time, the emperor would give him a small gold man, preferably a 24K pure gold. Then, he could sell it to himself...
