The Rise of the European Emperor

Chapter 143: Mass Wedding

After publicly signing a treaty allowing Dittmarschen autonomy, Marin was finally free. However, this freedom did not make Marin too happy. Because he lost face once before 15,000 hands, which greatly reduced his prestige.

Before, Marin felt invincible. However, this time, he was actually captured, which is really a blow to his prestige...

In order to find the stairs for himself, Marin solemnly introduced his brother Cage to his subordinates, and instigated Cage to compete with his subordinates.

As long as Cage defeats his subordinates and makes everyone realize that "it's not that he is incompetent, but the enemy is too powerful", then Marin's face will look better.

Cage is smart and seems to be able to think of Marin's ideas. However, he had just joined the Marin Army, and he also needed to establish his own prestige, so as not to be underestimated. Therefore, he does not reject this kind of competition, and even intends to play it well.

Then, the officers of Marin's men had their cups...

Saul and Cage were singled out, but they didn't react, they were subdued by Cage's move, and were skillfully knocked unconscious...

Marin quickly explained to his subordinates:

"Did you see it? This guy is too fast, it's too late for me to draw a gun..."

Stade stepped forward and failed to survive a single move, and was subdued and knocked unconscious by Cage using the same technique...

Schwartz was on guard with all his attention, but he managed two more moves, but he was still knocked unconscious by the uniform...

When it was the turn of Kahn, who is also the brother of the fierce general, the fight became exciting...

Kahn is a master of strength, his speed is not very fast, but he is not satisfied. At least, much faster than Marlin. Cage's fast break made Kahn a little embarrassed, but he resisted it.

Cage's strength is not comparable to Kahn's, but his movements are very agile. He swam around Kahn, was it a slap in the face. Kahn was engrossed in it, but he blocked it all.

However, Marin has also practiced. He can see that Cage's physical energy consumption is more than that of Kahn when he swims around Kahn like this. Over time, Cage will eventually be defeated by Kahn because of his lack of physical strength.

But this time Marin asked Cage to challenge his generals in order to help himself find the steps. If Cage is defeated by Kahn, his face will not look good. So, Marin quickly came forward to smooth the game, saying that the two sides were tied.

After the challenge was over, the disdain for Marin in the hearts of the soldiers onlookers dissipated. Because, they saw Cage's metamorphosis with their own eyes. Replacing yourself with oneself is also a move to be knocked unconscious...

Moreover, Cage was able to draw a tie with Kahn, which really shocked those fighting enthusiasts in the East Frisian Army. You know, Kahn, a pervert, has never lost to anyone in a single-handed battle. Even if someone wants to tie it, they can't do it. If Cage can draw a tie with Kahn, it can definitely be called a pervert. It doesn't seem ashamed to be caught by a pervert...

Seeing his goal achieved, Marin was very happy. However, he intends to further distract everyone, lest they keep talking about his disgraceful history of "captured".

After thinking over and over again, Marin decided to fulfill his promise immediately and hold a mass wedding for about 16,000 bachelors in the army in Schleswig.

If these over-energized big bosses go to their wives, where will they look at themselves? At that time, everyone is busy making villains...

In order to hold the wedding smoothly, Marin subordinated more than 3,000 married soldiers to the northern border and replaced those bachelor soldiers. Then, those bachelor soldiers, in the barracks outside Schleswig, began to follow the markings on their vests to look for the Danish girl they had stolen...

This is a very complicated job. Those big-headed soldiers are basically illiterate. They have to find their daughter-in-law and take the clerk to help, and check the camp division according to the roster.

Marlin is lazy,

He can't be bothered to build new houses and places for ceremonies for his subordinates. So, he simply let people knock down some obstructive houses outside the north gate of Schleswig and built a huge square.

At the same time, women from the Principality of Schleswig made 16,000 sets of wedding dresses using the white cloth in Marin's hands. As for the flowers held by the bride... Roses are not enough, so use wild flowers instead...

In summer, wild flowers are everywhere in the wild. Just pick them up and tie them together with ropes to become a bunch of flowers. Of course, it can also be tied into a wreath...

As for the wedding ring, Marin organized all the silversmiths in the Principality of Schleswig, knocked out some silver coins, and began to create the simplest silver wedding ring. Although it is said that the silver content of silver coins is not high. However, those big-headed soldiers dare to pick on gold and silver issues? It would be nice to have a wedding ring. Only those officers would take out some personal property and ask a silversmith to help them create a gold wedding ring.

However, the sewing of the wedding dress and the making of the wedding ring are so slow. It is very difficult to equip every couple with a wedding dress and wedding ring.

It took about 10 days of busy work and a lot of manpower, and we only managed to get together 5,000 wedding dresses and 4,500 simple wedding rings...

In desperation, Marin gave up the plan to make 16,000 couples swear marriage together, but divided 16,000 couples into three waves and swore their marriage together in the square.

When the first wave of newlyweds get married, they will take off their wedding dresses and rings, and then hand them over to the next group of people to use...

All the priests of the Principality of Schleswig were invited to the square to lead the new people to read the oath...

Of course, the mass wedding organized by Marin was not a purely religious wedding, but mixed with a lot of private goods...

Malin remembered that in that special era, young people married without worshiping heaven and earth, worshipping high halls, or worshipping gods and Buddhas... but swearing to the portrait of Taizu... to get married...

For Medieval Europeans with a low level of education, Marin felt that this trick was very good, so he applied it...

In the square, his portrait was hung high up...

Of course, Marin didn't dare to steal God's limelight. Although, new people need to swear allegiance to themselves. However, after the oath to God, the new people will swear allegiance to their own portraits...

On the day of the mass wedding, seeing thousands of newlywed couples swear allegiance to their portrait hanging high in the square after swearing to God, Marin suddenly felt extremely painful...

In fact, Marin himself was standing behind the high platform. Wouldn't it be better to swear allegiance to himself than to a portrait? But Marin was not so confident after all, and dared to run up to the stage to accept thousands of oaths of allegiance to the newcomers... So, let them swear allegiance to the portrait... It seems that he will be shy when he comes to power... After all, his skin is thin. Point, not a qualified politician...
