The Rise of Iceland - Vol 3 Chapter 467
The Swedish Empire changed the national system to the Viking Empire, and the countries were changed to provinces. At the same time, the first imperial examinations of the Viking Empire were implemented to select talents for the empire.
The establishment of the Viking Empire has become the top event in Northern Europe, and it is also the biggest news in Europe.
European countries sang the Viking Empire one after another, belittling Olaf for nothing, and at the same time inciting the nationals of Denmark, Sweden and other countries to rebel.
However, Olaf had been prepared for this for a long time, so the establishment of the Viking Empire and the plan to change the national system were announced as early as January, and the Viking News has been publishing the discussion content.
Therefore, the establishment of the Viking Empire was obtained with the unanimous consent of five million people in northern Europe. How to reform the system and divide several provinces was decided after the public opinion gathered and discussed in the Privy Council. It was also because the Ministry of Naturalization consciously mobilized Norway, Sweden, and Finland. The north and south are opposed, and the east and west of Denmark are divided, so that the two provinces can be successfully divided.
Because the public opinion must be respected, the name of the province is also the public opinion, and several plans proposed by Olaf, Song Qinghe and others were naturally rejected.
Olaf also understands that people of various countries have used the names of Finland, Norway, Sweden, etc. for hundreds of years, and it is definitely unwilling to suddenly push them all down. , divide the people of different countries into opposition, and then divide the power of the original countries. After the division into provinces, the power will also be divided and weakened. In the future, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark and other countries will not be able to restore their countries.
Olaf is not stunned. He has always cherished his life very much, so he also understands the danger of reform. A little carelessness will subvert his rule.
Wang Mang in Chinese history gave Olaf the most vivid example. A dynasty changer just took too big a step in reform, which led to the tug of the egg and his own throne.
Therefore, although the restructuring of the Viking Empire was successful, it was only half successful in changing the country and returning home. However, because of the open, fair and just implementation of this reform and restructuring, the five million Vikings were very satisfied, which also led to Although other countries continue to incite the people of the original countries to rebel and rise up against the tyrant Olaf, who usurped the throne and seized power, very few people really have an idea.
Olaf is very satisfied with the response of the provinces of the Viking Empire. Since Oros became the Minister of Naturalization, the intelligence work in Northern Europe has grown by leaps and bounds. In the past two years, Olaf has no longer worried about any intelligence in the Swedish Empire, not only information in all aspects. It can be grasped effectively and in a timely manner, and it can even guide public opinion through the Ministry of Naturalization.
Oros also because of his good leadership, after the establishment of the Viking Empire, Olaf was the first to seal Oros a “Duke of Waterfall” and rewarded him with 10,000 marks of gold.
The establishment of the Viking Empire is equivalent to the addition of Olaf’s real imperial robe. The first thing he did was to promote the Viking standard sound, the second thing was to open the imperial examination, and the third thing was to amnesty the world and reward the group. minister.
The first two things are to maintain the rule and strengthen assimilation, and the latter thing is to reward the ministers and reward the many ministers and minions who follow him.
The leaders of the older generation are still alive, such as Hoskuld, Hagrid, Kedir, Nilanhu, etc. The others have died of illness. Olaf gave each of the leaders of the older generation a duke, but the fiefs are all It’s all over Vinland.
The younger generation of Thom, Sollak, Kalm, Carl Tiger, Ulav, Half, Gairny, Yiluki, Harry, Val, Song Qinghe and others are Olaf’s most trusted confidants. The marquis was made, but the fief was not in Vinland, but in the eight provinces of Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and Finland.
As for the high-ranking officials and generals who are loyal to themselves in the Swedish imperial system, they also have their own titles, but all their fiefs are in Vinland.
All the fiefs of the nobility have no autonomy, but their nobility is hereditary and can be passed down from generation to generation. Olaf cleaned a large number of Swedish nobles before, and now he has promoted more than 40 great nobles and more than 100 nobles in an instant. A small noble, the nobles in the Viking Empire system instantly became huge.
By this time, the ruling class of the Viking Empire had added new noble groups from kings, ministers and five-colored Leidang, and the rule of the Viking Empire was destined to be more stable.
The Sun King of France, Louis XIV, the Tsar of Russia, the Emperor of the Habsburgs, the Prince of the Netherlands…
Whether it is a country that has hatred with Olaf or a country that is afraid of Olaf, all the kings, prime ministers, generals and marshals look nervous when they talk about the Viking Empire and the Viking Emperor Olaf, as if they are facing a big enemy.
The “Nordic Dragon” became the sword of Damocles that overwhelmed all European countries in 1652.
Although the population of the Viking Empire is not too large, all the factors such as the land area, the number and strength of the army, the economic strength, the development of the navy, and the existence of Olaf make all countries fearful and even more fearful.
Louis XIV and Ferdinand III united all the countries that wanted to overthrow the Viking Empire. Two Catholic filial sons established the “Anti-Viking Alliance” and began to secretly plan various conspiracies.
As the most feared and even feared existence by Louis XIV and others, Olaf has added the title of “Nordic Controller” in addition to “Nordic Dragon”.
With the capable Olos in his presence, Olaf quickly knew the plans and tricks of the two Catholic dutiful sons.
However, Olaf was in no hurry. He knew that although the English Republic would not try to help him, it would definitely not help France and Habsburg, because if the two defeated Northern Europe, they would be a greater threat to the English Republic.
For the interests of the United Kingdom, it is best to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.
^0^ Yes.
If Britain does not take action, Portugal can help itself contain some of Spain’s power. It is purely a dream to defeat itself with the power of France and the Habsburgs alone. Poland is now disabled, and Russia has to guard against it~www.mtlnovel. com~ Olaf is most worried about Russia. When he took the “provincial examination” in the provinces of the Viking Empire, he called all the generals, senior officials, ministers, ministers in the Privy Council, and top honors to the Three Crown Castle, targeting Catholics and The “Anti-Viking Alliance” formed mainly by Orthodox countries has made a special discussion and is ready to come up with the best response plan.
All the courtiers expressed their opinions, and 90% of them were impassioned and put forward plans to send troops, but some wanted to attack southern Germany first, and some wanted to continue to take the Netherlands, and then use the Netherlands to contain France. There are many tactical plans, but the strategy The purpose is one – “offensive is the best defense”.
Olaf listened to it for a long time. He felt that the Viking Empire’s martial and courageous atmosphere was too strong. If Heine was still alive, he would definitely be able to suppress it and come up with a better plan.
After a long time, everyone unified their opinions, and then looked at Olaf. Olaf’s current status and prestige, no matter what orders are issued, everyone will unconditionally implement them.
But Olaf looked at Song Qinghe, who was sitting in the corner without saying a word, and asked, “Mr. Song, what is your opinion? But it doesn’t matter.”
