The Rise of Iceland - Vol 3 Chapter 439

The Olafmin people invited their own think tank to the room to discuss the plan to annex Denmark and gradually integrate the Nordic integration.

Heine, who had just returned from the governorship of Wenlan, was naturally the chief military adviser, followed by Song Qinghe and other Ming literati and several missionaries of the Church of the God King.

Heine first went back to Iceland and arrived in Stockholm the day before yesterday. Olaf hadn’t arranged anything for him yet. Except for the welcome banquet last night, this was the first time the two had a chance to talk.

Holding Heine’s hand, Olaf looked at it carefully and said emotionally, “My cousin-in-law, you have worked so hard for you, you see that your temples are white.”

Heine originally had pale yellow hair, but at this time it was almost silver. His eyes were deeply wrinkled, and his body was extremely thin, but he looked a few years older than his actual age.

“I live up to the heavy trust, I finally handed you a well-developed Wenlan.”

Heine said with a smile: “Everything is running normally in the Grand Governor’s Palace now. It is most suitable for you to have Kalm as the governor. He is calm and sophisticated, so I can rest assured.”

Olaf patted the back of Heine’s hand with a smile, and said in a low voice: “You haven’t shown up in Sweden, so I can’t give you too much of an official position. Be a member of the Privy Council first, and you will be promoted later if you have the opportunity, Heine, you can’t. mad at me.”

“I understand the truth. Ten years ago, who would have dared to think that we would make this career under your leadership? I am very satisfied.”

Heine smiled very open-mindedly, and then asked: “The clerical missionaries from the Grand Governor’s Palace and your imperial literati from the Ming Kingdom have arrived. Let’s discuss the topic.”

Song Qinghe was nearly seventy years old, but he was still in high spirits. He stroked his beard and said: “Master Hai, you and His Highness Godfather are relatives, and they are the most trusted adults. The old man has long heard that you have far-reaching strategies and superb ingenuity. Today about to be taught.”

Heine was no longer when he was dealing with the literati of the Ming Kingdom. He knew that the people of the Ming Kingdom were talking about the same as the rotten politicians and nobles, and because they would speak modestly, they smiled and nodded, and did not refuse. He said directly: “Since Master Song asked, I’ll talk about my thoughts first.”

“The godfather means that Russia has the largest population and land in Europe, and high-yield crops such as potatoes will allow them to solve the food problem and develop rapidly. I think Poland should also pay attention to this problem. Our Nordic region does have less arable land and slow population growth. , it is necessary to suppress Russia, and the integration of northern Europe is also what it should be.”

Heine’s words made Olaf very satisfied. He could always grasp the most real thoughts in his heart, and when he saw the corners of Olaf’s mouth twitching slightly, Heine became excited.

“There are two big countries in northern Europe, Denmark and Sweden. Denmark is an old and powerful country. No matter it is an influence or a city, its national strength should not be underestimated. Just as the Ottoman Empire turned the Mediterranean into an inland lake, we can also turn the Baltic Sea into an inland lake, so that our national strength will instantly become the No. 1 in Europe, and one or two generations of development may even agree with the whole of Europe.”

“Guys, just imagine that we unify northern Europe, and then form a system of Vinland, Greenland and northern Europe, we will be a true empire on which the sun never sets, and the most powerful empire, by then We will surpass all our predecessors, surpass Caesar, Canute, Charlemagne, **** and other great figures, and become the greatest empire-builder in the world!”

Heine’s ability to deceive people has been perfected in the nine years he has been in control of Wenlan, and a few words have left most people in a trance and excited.

Several young clerks who graduated from Vinland University shouted excitedly: “Long live the godfather.”

So that the meeting was instantly taken away, and everyone raised their hands and cheered the godfather.

Olaf waited for more than ten minutes before saying, “Heine, tell me what to do.”

Heine also seemed to have learned the bad habits of oriental literati counselors, smiled mysteriously, stretched out three fingers, and said, “I have three strategies, upper, middle, and lower. I don’t know which strategy do you want to hear, Godfather?”

Song Qinghe and the others suddenly widened their eyes when they heard the words, secretly exclaiming fiercely.

Olaf said angrily: “Don’t make a fool of yourself, just say it.”

Heine shrugged and said: “Well, annexing Denmark by war is the most inadvisable way, because now Denmark is already under our control. If we annex it again, it will arouse strong opposition from the Danish people. We are now in Poland and Russia. In war, from resources and money, we don’t need to spend on Denmark, if Denmark is destroyed, the money is gone, and it will be meaningless to occupy it.”

Olaf nodded, and Mihir, a young Polish serf and second-generation Vinland immigrant adviser, hurriedly asked, “My lord, if we don’t use force, is there any other way to annex Denmark?”

Heine smiled: “Yes. I think Lord Song is smiling, maybe he has an idea?”

Song Qinghe is an old man, he knows Heine’s position in Olaf’s heart, so he doesn’t want to compete for favor, but he doesn’t want to be despised by Heine and Olaf, so he got up and saluted Olaf respectfully, and then said: “Since Mr. Hai After asking, the old man will simply talk about my thoughts.

In fact, with the current strong national power and influence of our Swedish Empire, plus control of Denmark’s political arena and maritime taxation, and the popularity of the Viking concept, it only takes two generations, that is, thirty or forty years, to annex Denmark. It will be very easy, but we can’t wait now. Fighting is the most inferior method, so I think Mr. Hai, you may be thinking of marrying, but Lord Chitose obtains the Danish inheritance, and then asks Christensen to give him the Zen throne. Godfather, right? ”

Heine couldn’t help applauding and praised: “Mr. Song is worthy of being the godfather.

^0^ Your Royal Highness’s military advisor, what you said and what I thought were correct. ”

Brahe, the only Swede in Olaf’s confidant think tank, looked a little ugly and whispered: “Godfather, I heard that Christensen has three daughters. The eldest daughter is only twelve years old this year. It has been betrothed to Carl, and the second daughter is only 11 years old, if you marry her, would it be too…”

Song Qinghe kept his beard silent, while Heine smiled and said, “Your Excellency Bracher, you misunderstood. Christensen’s daughter is not the only daughter of Denmark’s princess, can’t the daughter of Christian IV also be okay?”

“Oh?” Brahe frowned, “But hasn’t Christian IV been abolished from the throne, so he can retire in Iceland with peace of mind?”

Heine smiled lightly and said: “Christensen will not obediently give the godfather the position of Zen, but Christian IV has lived very well in Iceland for many years and will definitely listen to our opinions. I know that he has several others. The daughter who has just grown up, Princess Margaret is just 19 years old this year. Although she has a marriage contract, she is not married yet, and not many people know about it. The important thing is that Princess Margaret is very beautiful and can be used as a godfather. marriage partner.”

Song Qinghe clapped his hands and said with a smile: “Do you want His Highness to marry Margaret, and then put Christian IV back in Denmark to support the restoration of the old king, and then do the practice of meditation? This is really more secure, and It can make European countries unable to interject and participate in the affairs of the Danish royal family, brilliant!”

Dear, this chapter is over, I wish you a happy reading! ^0^
