The Rise of the European Emperor

Because Pope Alexander VI suddenly died suddenly, and Julius II was elected as the new Pope in a very short time. Therefore, what happened in Rome made other European countries not react for a while. By the time they reacted, they had already received an invitation from the Holy See to participate in the Pope's enthronement ceremony.

In fact, no matter who the Pope is, most countries and regions don't particularly care. However, the following countries are different, they are - France, Spain, Portugal and Shinra...

France and Spain care who the Pope is, for one simple reason. Because, both countries need the Pope to rule on the ownership of the kingdom of Naples.

Before, France had the upper hand. Whether it is military or political, France has the upper hand. Because, in the last few years, Pope Alexander VI abandoned his native Spain and instead formed an alliance with France.

The reason for this is because France promised that, after taking the kingdom of Naples, a large tract of land would be given to Caesar and Geoffrey, the illegitimate sons of Alexander VI. Therefore, Alexander VI decisively abandoned his native Spain and mixed with the French King Louis XII.

It is a pity that the ownership of the Kingdom of Naples has not yet been finalized, and Alexander VI suddenly died, which made the French very depressed.

Speaking of which, the new Pope Julius II was once a staunch ally of France. As early as the time of Charles VIII, Julius II, then Bishop of Rovere, regarded Paris as his home. At that time, Julius II was an ally of France, while Alexander VI was a sworn enemy of France and an ally of Spain.

However, after Louis XII came to power, the French themselves abandoned the then abject Archbishop of Rovere and instead formed an alliance with Alexander VI. In this way, the archbishop of Rovere, who was originally close to France, became hostile to the French, and was almost kidnapped and sent to Rome.

In this way, because of the coming to power of Louis XII, the allies of the two great powers changed. However, the Archbishop of Rovere did not seek refuge in Spain. However, his relationship with France is not good.

The French are actually very depressed. If they had received the news earlier, they could have sent troops to demonstrate in Rome. Before the new pope was elected,

Intimidate the Roman cardinals to elect a pope close to France. After all, although the French army was defeated by the Spanish army, it is still guarding the northern front line of the Kingdom of Naples, very close to Rome.

Unfortunately, it's too late now. A new pope has been elected and announced to the world. Even the French would not dare to kill the new pope. Unless, it wants to be beaten by a group all over Europe. What's more, he trusted Pope Julius II and brought 7,000 soldiers and horses, enough to defend the city.

Compared with the depression of the French, the Spaniards were more happy than worried about the election of Julius II.

The Spaniards were happy that it was difficult for Julius II to come together with Louis XII because of the change of allies. In this way, Julius II may be more partial to Spain when it comes to deciding the ownership of the kingdom of Naples.

What the Spaniards worried about was the Treaty of Tordesillas signed when Alexander VI supported Spain in the early days, and the license to allow Spain to trade with India later, and whether the new Pope would recognize it.

According to the original historical development, Julius II must have re-declared the legitimacy of the Treaty of Tordesillas. Because, in the original history, Spain did not blend into the real Indian trade. Portugal is also making a fortune in silence. Therefore, in the original history, the two teeth had no objection to the Treaty of Tordesillas.

However, because of Marin's crossing, things have changed dramatically. Spain had not yet discovered gold and silver in America, but was seduced by Marin to the real India and began to compete with the Portuguese for business.

Well, here comes the question, the Portuguese naturally wanted the Treaty of Tordesillas to remain in force, but the Spaniards changed. Because the huge profits of the Indian spice trade have made the Spanish kings breathless. So, the Spaniards were unhappy with the Treaty of Tordesillas...

Because the rich America was deliberately called the "Wild Continent" by the wretched guy Marin, and the syphilis incident happened, the Spaniards became somewhat less interested in America.

On the contrary, the huge profits brought by the Indian route are real. Therefore, for now, whether it is Portugal or Spain, they all hope that they can dominate the Indian trade routes, while excluding the other party to the "Wild Continent".

Therefore, Spain will no longer insist on the Treaty of Tordesillas, but Portugal will insist on it unilaterally. Sooner or later, these two countries will have to fight for this.

In the past, Julius II might have made a choice and muddled the mud, trying his best to mediate the contradiction between the two countries. However, before leaving East Friesland and returning to Italy, Marin found Julius II and had a long secret conversation with him.

After this secret conversation, Julius II has already made up his mind...

Following Marin's advice, Julius II would not jump to conclusions. However, when it comes to the interests of India's routes, it will choose to favor Spain.

However, Spain cannot take all the benefits. As the price of gaining India's trade qualifications, at least half of the interests of the American continent must be given up. As for who does this benefit go to? Do you still need to ask? It must be for Marlin...

As for the grandson of Portugal, it is natural to let Spain clean up. Portugal is indeed tyrannical at sea, but Marin once gave the two kings of Spain a bad idea to go abroad - once there is a conflict between Spain and Portugal, don't pay attention to the provocation of the Portuguese at sea, and directly organize tens of thousands of troops on land to surround Lisbon...

It's true that I can't beat you at sea, but I can kill you on land...

Therefore, in the end, Portugal must suffer. And when that time comes, Marin just needs to hide behind and pick up a bargain...

As for the last big guy who cares about the change of the Pope, it is the Emperor Maximilian I of the Holy Roman Empire. As for why care? It's because he, the Emperor of Shinra, hasn't been crowned in Rome yet...

Therefore, Maximilian I especially hoped that the new pope would be on his side. In this way, it is also easy for the Pope to crown him.

Before, although he bought the throne of the Eastern Roman Empire from Andres Pariologos. However, that was just an empty title, without any real meaning. Because, Maximilian I did not get any territory of the Eastern Roman Empire. Moreover, the territory was basically occupied by the powerful Turkey, and it was extremely difficult to get it back.

Therefore, in comparison, it is still the throne of Shinra, which is more realistic. At least, after the coronation, it is more justifiable.

In this case, it would be strange that Maximilian I didn't care who the Pope was and what his political stance was...

To the delight of Maximilian I, although this Julius II may not be close to himself, he is certainly not close to Louis XII of France. As long as it is not an ally of the French, it is easy to handle, and there is a great hope of his own coronation.

However, what Maximilian I didn't know was that his trusted general, Marin, quietly proposed to his father-in-law-don't let Maximilian I be easily crowned, at least, let the emperor help himself, more After acquiring a few territories and supporting yourself politically, you can get his coronation as he wishes...

If Maximilian I knew that Marin was such a stumbling block for his coronation, he would probably be so angry that he would immediately bring a knife to Orich and chop Marin into eight pieces...
