Chapter 137: Start planning East Frisian

Squinting that the Republic of Friesland is no longer his own, Marin is not reconciled to being trapped on several islands. So he set his sights on Frisian's neighbouring country, and also the home of Mrs. Mary-East Frisian.
Mrs. Mary is the heir of the Bullock family, and has the theoretical possibility of inheriting East Frisian. Although Mrs. Mary's mother was not an aristocracy, the marriage of his parents belonged to "unique marriage". Jurisprudentially, Mrs. Mary should have lost the possibility of inheriting East Frisian. This is also an important reason why the current Count of East Frisian States did not continue to hunt down Mrs. Mary.
Alas, it's hard to beat Marin. As a traverser who was accustomed to false evidence in later generations, Marin knew that although Grandpa Mary was only a merchant, Madame Mary's grandfather, who was the Count of East Frisian at the time, was eligible to grant Lady Mary Grandpa is a noble.
Marin remembered that Mrs. Mary had collected many official parchment papers signed by Count Brock. As a master who is good at imitating other people's handwriting, Marin can imitate the signature of Earl Brock and make fake documents. As long as Marin forged a document that Count Brock authorised Madam Mary's grandfather, the Savannah family to be promoted to baron, and let everyone recognize it. Then, the marriage of Mrs. Mary's parents is no longer an intermarriage of your grandmother.
As for how the instrument can be believed, it's simple. In addition to making the writing on the documents exactly the same as those of the old documents, Marin also knows the aging and old techniques. For example, you can put the fake documents in a high temperature and low temperature environment for a period of time, and you can also take the documents to a place with a lot of wind and sand for a period of time ... In short, after a period of toss, as long as the documents look very worn, That's it.
Even, Marin can simply buy old parchment paper. In this way, it is easier to get old, and it is more difficult to distinguish authenticity.
As long as the handwriting is the same, the instrument looks very vintage. Even if someone comes to identify, it's hard to tell the truth. With such a document, Mrs. Mary is qualified to inherit East Frisian. Then, as the son of Mrs. Mary, she was legally qualified to use East Frisian.
The only trouble is that I have a big brother ...
Adler is a bit silly, but he is the eldest son of Mrs. Mary. According to European practice, even if Mrs. Mary is qualified to inherit East Frisian, her first successor is Adler, not Marin.
Marin was very worried, he worked a long time, but ended up making clothes for Adler. Although Adler is his own brother, in the battle for hegemony, there is no family relationship to talk about. Lao Li killed two brothers in order to become emperor ...
If he can't get absolute inheritance, Marin would rather not attack East Frisian. Because, East Frisian is not too easy to mess with.
You must know that a small country like East Frisian Lambo, with a population of more than 60,000, has good fighting power. Although they are the same Frisian people as the Frisian aristocratic republics, the fighting powers of the two countries are quite different.
Because East Friesland faced the ungrateful German princes, the people of this country have been fighting basically. A small state with more than 60,000 people was able to mobilize 8,000 troops. In medieval Europe, this is basically the whole people. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are fighting nations of this era.
The Frisian aristocratic republic has East Frisian blocking to the east, and the relatively mild Archbishop of Utrecht to the south as a barrier. Therefore, the Frisian aristocratic republic is not dangerous enough, and the people's sense of crisis is not as strong as that of East Frisian, nor is it almost as popular as East Frisian. Therefore, they were easily conquered by the Duke of Saxony.
Marin read such a passage in the history books-in 1516, Maximilian I gave East Frisian Land to George the Duke of Saxony. Then, Duke George of Saxony gathered 24 lords and brought together a total of ten thousand coalition forces, but was defeated by Friesland.
Of course, East Frisian is the defensive side and naturally has the advantage. Moreover, this small state can mobilize 8,000 troops, which is very powerful. What's more, its standing army is a heavy armored swordsman army of 1,000 people, also called a straw hat swordsman. Because of this group of heavy armor swordsmen, only the upper body is wearing breastplate armor, the lower body is without armor, and the head is wearing a Frisian local straw hat. In general, the number of East Frisian heavy armored swordsmen was twice that of the Frisian aristocratic republic with a population of more than 200,000. In addition, East Frisian's straw hat swordsman is better trained and more effective.
In fact, it was George Duke of Saxony who killed himself. You hiccup, you have tens of thousands of troops, and East Frisian usually has only 1,000 troops. If you do not declare war and launch a sneak attack, the other party will definitely not have the time to mobilize the whole country.
In the end, this one was better. He asked the emperor for help and let the emperor publicly issue the edict. The jurisprudence was correct, but East Frisian had enough time to prepare.
Before the Saxony army had arrived in East Friesland, the East Frisian land country had completed national mobilization, mobilized 8,000 troops, relying on the solid city walls, and waited ... Then the Saxony coalition tragedy ...
For Marin, it must have been a direct attack on Emden, the capital of East Frisian Land, and directly took the Sexner family who ruled the country. Then everything is OK.
As for jurisprudence, wait until the Sequner family is captured, and then slowly explain and contact the locals. The original count were gone, and no one called them to resist. Other regions cannot be mobilized.
Then again, of the 13 tribes of East Frisian, the area controlled by the formerly largest Bullock family was most likely to fall to Marin. Because, according to the spies report, many people there still miss the Brock family. As long as someone responds, it shouldn't be difficult to win over East Frisian yourself.
Then, I also learned to study Li Yuan into Chang'an, and come to "Three Chapters of the Law" or "Amnesty the World" or something, which can dissolve the resistance of East Frisian people. All have lived a good life. Who is willing to resist? Moreover, the descendants of Mrs. Mary are indeed orthodox heirs. In addition to the overwhelming loyalty of the Seksner family who was overthrown, and the Ukner family who betrayed the Brock family at that time ~ EbookFREE.me ~, it is estimated that other families will lose their determination to resist to the end.
As for the 1,000 Straw Hat Swordmen of the East Frisian Standing Army, Marin was not worried. This group of warriors wearing breastplates was usually troublesome when the cold weapon forces encountered them. However, there are many musketeers in Marin's army, which are best suited to fight these armored heavy infantry.
In fact, the biggest trouble comes from Adler ...
After much deliberation, Marin finally figured out a way-that is to go home and sign an instrument with Adler, and let Adler give up in writing to give East Frisian the right to inherit. Of course, as a compensation, after winning the East Frisian State, Marin would also seal Adler a baron and give him a good place.
If Adler is not willing to give up the right of inheritance, then Marin would rather not attack East Frisian, so as not to break things in the future and cause family strife ...
If that is the case, Marin will have to wait for Pope Julius II. By then, relying on the ace of Angela and collaborating with the pope, he could still obtain the identity of an earl.
I must know that although Maximilian I claimed to be emperor, until now he has not been crowned by the pope. Historically, it was not until 1508 that the Emperor followed the Pope to massacre Venice, which threatened the Papal State, and Pope Julius II formally agreed to let the Emperor crown himself.
The emperor now is, but his name is not right. If Julius II is willing to support himself and use a formal coronation as a condition for negotiation, let alone change the count with the emperor, the duke is possible. Of course, the official crowning is an important chip for the Pope to deal with the Emperor, and the Pope will not easily use it ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Welcome the book readers to read, the latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all in ~ www.mtlnovel. com ~ mobile users, please read.
