The Rise of the European Emperor

When Frederick III heard Marin's words, his face changed. But after all, he was the top IQ man among the German princes. If Marin had not had the knowledge of several hundred years ahead, he would not be able to match him at all. He thought about it and quickly replied:

"Are you righteous? Which war did you lose? Every time you win, you make a lot of money. Not to mention the counties of East Friesland, after you became count of East Friesland, How many years has it been? You have occupied Oldenburg, Schleswig, Münster and Osnabrück. This area is bigger than my electorate of Saxony. A lot. If you are righteous, you shouldn't want the other party's compensation!"

In his previous life, Marin had been the second and third debater in the university debate competition. Although he had never been the main debater, he was very eloquent. So he quickly replied:

"You need to correct the errors in your words - the Bishopric of Münster and the Bishopric of Osnabrück were rewarded by the Holy See after I sent troops to help the Holy See unify Florence. This is not what I sent troops to snatch, come here. Honest and honorable!"

"Where's the Duchy of Schleswig? What about the Earl of Oldenburg? I remember, the Earl of Oldenburg is still under your control for no apparent reason!" Frederick III pointed out a very fatal question— —Marin is now occupying the county of Oldenburg for no apparent reason. Moreover, because of the importance of Oldenburg's position, Marin did not want to let go.

Marin was unwilling to answer Oldenburg's question, so he avoided the Oldenburg question and directly answered the Schleswig Duchy:

"It should be noted that I am a peace-loving person and don't like to use force against others. But at the same time, I am also very disgusted with the enemy's use of force against me! I asked Denmark to cede the Duchy of Schleswig to me in order to teach Denmark a lesson. , so that people can understand - I am not to be provoked. If Denmark unites with Oldenburg, forcing me to cede Jever and I will not fight back, and teach the other party a very unforgettable lesson, all the princes will feel that in the future. I am easy to bully. In this way, today there are princes who want to cede my Aurich, and tomorrow there are princes who want to cede my Emden, and in a few days, I will have no land..."

"Anyway, I, Marin Hoffman, don't take the initiative to attack others. But when others attack me, I have to pay a heavy price. Otherwise, if I don't need to pay any price for attacking me, those who want to attack me will probably be able to get from Wall. Muss is in Aurich!"

"Haha..." Some neutral religious princes laughed. Obviously, Marin's words also make sense.

"That Or..." Frederick III wanted to talk about Oldenburg.

Seeing this, Marin hurriedly interrupted:

"I am much better than some people, and some people are vicious. If I lose the battle, let alone places like the Principality of Schleswig, I am afraid that East Frisian will not be guaranteed. Perhaps, I am a prince, Maybe it will be reduced to a miserable situation of begging on the street. Because some people are black!"

Frederick III was instantly annoyed, and he shouted:

"Don't call me black, how about yourself? Oldenburg Counties did snatch your Yevre, but now? Didn't you also occupied all Oldenburg counties? Are you not black?"

Seeing that he couldn't avoid this topic, Marin had no choice but to answer:

"The reason why I am still stationed in Oldenburg is because the Counties of Oldenburg and I are enemies. The Counties of Oldenburg and East Friesland are next to each other and send troops to attack from the border. Orihi's words, the troops will arrive in less than half a day, it is too dangerous! Therefore, I will now send troops to stay in Oldenburg to supervise the military movements of Oldenburg. Until the Oldenburg family completely gives up with me Hostile until..."

This explanation is far-fetched, but Marin has to give it an explanation. It is impossible for the Oldenburg family to give up their hostility to Marin. Therefore, Marin has an excuse to control Oldenburg for a long time.

"Also, I didn't treat the Earl of Oldenburg's family slowly, their treatment was no different from usual,

Even better! "This is true. In addition to the restriction of freedom, Marin is not stingy with the members of the Oldenburg family in terms of food and drink expenses, and the treatment is favorable.

"But their freedom is restricted, and even the Imperial Council can't send people to participate!"

"Freedom is restricted? No. In the past, members of their family stayed in Oldenburg City and didn't go out very much. Now, they can still move freely in Oldenburg City. Moreover, I recently planned to Invite them to have fun in Las Vegas, a bustling new town at the mouth of the Elbe! Las Vegas is a lot of fun, with beautiful women from the Ross area providing thoughtful and gentle service, and all kinds of excitement (the church is against gambling, so Marin can only say it vaguely)... In short, the Earl's family will live a happy life..." While explaining, Marin did not forget to give his casino Las Vegas has a soft ad...

Frederick III was also speechless, and Marin's face was no less thick than him. He accused him of annexing Oldenburg, but Marin kept talking about him without changing his face, and even promoted his gambling city and silver nest, it was like...

Marin then made up the knife and said:

"Well, my dear Lord Frederick, I'm still a good man. If I think you are so dark, I took everything from Denmark when I beat Denmark last time. As you do, I The king of Denmark and Norway by now . . . do you think so, Her Majesty Hans?"

King Hans, who was sitting in the carriage, snorted and turned his face away, and Frederick III was so angry that he was speechless...

Marin was too lazy to continue fighting with him, so he waved his hand and said:

"Okay, I'm too lazy to argue with you. That's it, let's go to the city!"

Frederick III calmed down and said:

"Entering the city? Yes, your army has to stop outside the city, and you can only bring a small number of guards into the city!"

Marin turned his head and said:

"Who made it? Is there a law that says that no one is allowed to bring the army into the city?"

Frederick III was startled, thinking that there was really no such decree. But everyone agrees, and everyone knows that you can't bring an army into the city. Otherwise, what if someone brings an army into the city and coerces others to agree with his point of view? So, Frederick III calmed down the anger in his heart and said:

"There is no specific decree, but no one has ever brought a large army into the city when an imperial meeting was held! This is a customary rule..."

"Oh..." Marin responded, and then said:

"That is to say, which imperial law does not violate the laws of the empire that I lead troops into the city? That's right, we all enter the city..."
