The Rise of Iceland - Vol 3 Chapter 470
Friedrich Wilhelm is the current duke of the Principality of Prussia. He has admired Hadar and Olaf and his son since he was a child, and he supported him unswervingly on the road of Olaf’s rise.
Therefore, after the end of the 25-year war, although the Principality of Prussia failed to expand its territory, it obtained the preferential rights of the Viking firm, and it was considered to have mastered the code of wealth.
Over the years, Friedrich Wilhelm was watching how Olaf cleaned up in Stockholm, gained power, and became the emperor with a yellow robe. He was even more shocked by Olaf’s Nordic five-color thunder, Viking standard tone, and imperial examinations. people.
Therefore, although Duke William still has ambitions to bring the Principality of Prussia to a strong path, such as the rise of the Principality of Iceland, he also understands that he has no resistance in the face of Olaf and can only be a loyal servant.
Therefore, William has lived on the Baltic coast almost all the year round, sometimes in Szczecin, sometimes in Memelburg, and sometimes in Stockholm. After serving in the Congress these years, he has been fully engaged in his own work, which has attracted unanimous praise and praise from Tongliao. Olaf’s appreciation.
At a meeting on sending troops to the Far East and guarding against an anti-Viking alliance, Olaf ordered Duke William’s generals to speak.
William is also over forty years old, but he runs around all day and never rests. He looks energetic and his eyes are like electricity. Standing in front of the round table, he speaks impassively about his envisioned military strategy against Russia and France and how to deal with it. The deployment arrangement, in which the focus is on the lightning attack on Russia, as long as an army arrives under the city of Moscow, with the Jewish operation for many years, in the southeastern region of Russia, a rebellious Cossack can completely appear in the southern hinterland of Moscow, Let Russia be attacked by the enemy, and it is difficult to resist.
Russia is a big problem for the Viking Empire, which is not only emphasized by Olaf many times, but also all the high-ranking officials and nobles are aware of this.
Especially in recent years, with the spread of high-yielding crops such as potatoes, sweet potatoes and corn to Europe from Vinland and even other countries, farmers in most countries have lived a happy life of hunger and a full meal, and they are no longer the same as before. It’s time to starve.
And countries such as Poland and Russia, which have black land in Europe, have also begun to exert their strength. Each grain-producing region has continued to produce high yields and harvests. Perhaps the Little Ice Age has entered the end, and there are even fewer natural disasters.
Therefore, in recent years, Russia’s national strength has made rapid progress, which has raised the vigilance of promising people in the Viking Empire.
Stefan Andersson stood up and said: “Your Majesty, I think Duke William is right, we should take the lead, whether or not to send troops to the Far East, Russia must be trimmed.”
The young member Stefan Andersson, who was newly promoted to the Privy Council, was the first B-level candidate in the imperial examination, Stefan Andersson.
He has been working diligently for ten years, always fighting to maintain Olaf’s reputation and status. Before he knew it, he entered the cabinet at the age of 28 and became a member of the Privy Council. A member of the Privy Council is equivalent to being a candidate for the Prime Minister. Stefan Andersson has also become a hot new star in the political arena of the Viking Empire.
Stefan Andersson has always known that he has come step by step by relying on His Majesty’s gift, so he is also the best at figuring out opinions. Seeing his own words, His Majesty touched his beard, and Stefan was secretly delighted. , continued: “I think that the Far East must be dispatched, because our time in the Far East is too short. If the Ryukyu Kingdom can stabilize the situation, we can be stationed in the Far East for a long time. Nanming has already counterattacked to Yanjing, and this year may be able to conquer the North. Qing rushed back to Manchuria, and Ming is no longer very obedient, we must support a new spokesperson for the Far East, and the Ryukyu Kingdom is the best candidate, so helping Ryukyu is helping ourselves.”
Stefan Andersson is known for his quick wit and eloquence, and everyone thinks it makes sense.
After a pause, Stefan Andersson continued: “Duke William is the field marshal of our Viking Empire and a famous general of Europa. If His Majesty’s Holy Inquisition also thinks that Duke William’s plan is feasible, then we can march from the east. The front line is attacking Russia, and there is an undeclared war.”
“How can you say anything about the war in advance?”
“That’s right, soldier, tricky way.”
…
Olaf looked at everyone’s discussion, laughed and said: “Okay, then Duke William will be the commander-in-chief of the attack on Russia. The Ministry of War and the Ministry of the Navy will discuss together and show me a detailed battle plan. Let’s The Viking Empire has been recuperating for ten years, and it’s time to shake the axe and remind the world of the fear of being dominated by us.”
“Your Majesty said that you still need to set the tone for this battle.” Stefan Andersson glanced at William and immediately understood, and hurriedly stepped forward and bowed.
Olaf tapped the handrail with his fingers and said, “It’s called preemptive strike.”
Soon, less than a day after this meeting, important ministers such as Friedrich Wilhelm and Prime Minister Oren asked Olaf with a pile of clan warfare plans.
After reviewing the plan, Olaf adjusted some details, and finally said: “Our steel mill and arsenal will be fully operational from today, and the steam furnace will no longer need to be tested. Isn’t there anything wrong? Put it in the factory, our Viking Empire now wants people, money and money, and we are afraid that we won’t be able to win Russia?”
All the ministers agreed in unison, Olaf looked at Oros, and said: “You also cooperate with William to share information, and the matter of instigating the Cossacks in Russia must be done quickly, and the forces of the Jewish Federal Kingdom must also be used…”
Olaf instructed repeatedly, and everyone took out their notebooks and hurriedly recorded them. After about an hour, the discussion in front of the king would be over.
Dear, this chapter is not over, and there is another page ^0^ Olaf rewarded everyone for dinner in the palace after seeing the sky. After a dinner party, the leadership core of the Viking Empire entered the tense and orderly preparations for the war inside.
Eight thousand Viking Legionnaires, led by twenty troop carriers and ten frigates, left Copenhagen Port on March 22 and went to the Far East to support the Vasa royal family of the Ryukyu Kingdom, which was in a bitter battle~www.mtlnovel.com~month On the 25th, the 120,000 Viking Corps arrived on the east coast of the Baltic Sea on a troop carrier after more than half a month of preparation. Such a big news could not be concealed from the Russians, but they did not give the Russians time to spread the news to Moscow. 12 Wan Dajun tore through Russia’s weak line of defense after only three days of renovations, and marched toward Moscow in a mighty way.
It was only in early April that European countries learned that the Viking Empire was undeclared war and invaded the Russian Empire in accordance with the request of the Viking Emperor Olaf to “pre-empt”.
Many small countries immediately remembered the Netherlands, which was ravaged more than ten years ago, and the United Republic of the Seven Provinces of the Netherlands is still half-dead. These small countries are unable to resist the Nordic dragon, and can only send messengers to Stockholm tremblingly. I hope to know whether His Majesty Olaf is only ready to deal with Russia as a country, or is intent on sweeping the European continent.
Louis XIV of France was both excited and nervous. He immediately contacted Habsburg and Spain and other countries, began to form a coalition in the name of the Catholic Union, and sent Prince Condé to lead 50,000 cavalry to attack Magdeburg first. In cooperation with the vanguard of Bavaria, the purpose is to directly seize the two provinces of Pomerania of the Viking Empire and seize the largest port of the Viking Empire on the south bank of the Baltic Sea.
Dear, this chapter is over, I wish you a happy reading! ^0^
