The Rise of the European Emperor

( )[92zw] Marin didn't understand that Denmark chose to use 20,000 recruits to join the war. why? Because pure recruits are entering the war for the first time, it is best to fight with the wind. Otherwise, you will fight against the wind as soon as you come up, and it will be easy to collapse.

However, the second piece of information that was sent next solved Marin's doubts...

It turned out that the Danish king Hans was scared by the previous city of Copenhagen and was forced to sign a humiliating treaty. Therefore, while considering sending troops, King Hans prioritized his own safety. If Copenhagen breaks down again, it will be a lot of fun. Chances are, a lot of land will be cut off.

Therefore, the original 12,000 veterans of Denmark, King Hans put 2,000 in Oslo, the capital of the Kingdom of Norway. Another 10,000 main force, all placed in Copenhagen.

The reason for this choice, in addition to King Hans becoming less timid, was the loss of sea power, which was also the main reason why King Hans made such a choice.

Because, in the last war, the Danish navy was completely plundered by Lübeck and Hamburg, making Denmark, the original maritime power, completely lost its navy.

Not only that, Lübeck and Hamburg also sent fleets to be stationed in Sweden on the other side of the Oresund to monitor Denmark and prevent the Danish navy from rising again.

However, Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark, is on the edge of the Oresund...

In the case of losing sea power, if Copenhagen does not leave enough troops to garrison, it is really easy for the fleets of Lübeck and Hamburg to fight a landing battle and a city-breaking battle. At that time, Denmark will still have bad luck.

Therefore, King Hans finally chose to use 20,000 recruits to fight. Moreover, these 20,000 recruits were all trained with Swiss mercenary instructors, and after a year of training, presumably their combat effectiveness is enough...

And, according to the intelligence, the Danes' strategy was - to hold back at first. After the allied forces of Brandenburg and Saxony besieged Lübeck, the Danes estimated that the 10,000-strong army of the Duchy of Schleswig would be divided south to rescue. After all, there are too many coalition forces in the south. According to the information from the Danish nobles, the total number of coalition forces in the south this time is about 50,000. In addition to the 20,000 Swiss mercenaries, the Electorate of Brandenburg and the Electorate of Saxony each sent 15,000 soldiers. With 30,000 strong people, there are 80,000 people in total.

With such a huge army, the Danes believed that Marin's troops were insufficient and must be sent south for reinforcements from the Principality of Schleswig.

At that time, the Danish army of 20,000 suddenly invaded the Principality of Schleswig. With the remaining troops of the Principality of Schleswig, it should not be an opponent of 20,000 troops...

I have to say that this strategy of the Danes, under normal circumstances,

Not really wrong. However, he still underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Marin army.

Moreover, the Danes believe that of the 20,000 troops in Marin, Marin can bring out 12,000 at most. After all, the homeland has to be guarded. Only, they ignored the presence of the East Frisian militia.

The wrong estimates in these two aspects made the Danes make a wrong decision-to use 20,000 recruits to attack the Principality of Schleswig, where 10,000 elite veterans were stationed...

When Marin received this second piece of information, he immediately rejoiced. So, he decides to count on...

Marin wrote a secret letter to Woolf Esbrand, ordering him to recruit 8,000 strong people in the Duchy of Schleswig. Then, make 8,000 pieces of black cross vests on a white background...

The purpose of doing this is to make these 8,000 people strong, pretend to be the main force, and swagger "south to rescue Lübeck"...

After the war began, if the Danes learned that the 10,000-strong army of the Principality of Schleswig and 8,000 people went to reinforce Lübeck, they would definitely not miss this "good opportunity". At that time, the 20,000 Danish army will definitely take the opportunity to raid the northern cities of the Principality of Schleswig, such as Ribe City. At that time, the fighter plane will come...

...

Then, a third piece of information came from Copenhagen. This information shocked Marin...

why? Because the person who sent the information was Jim, the king's spy under Marin's command...

After Jim bought the poison "Cantrella" from Spain, Mikel soon arranged Jim into a general's house as a follower through his personal relationship when he was the prime minister of Denmark...

This is not the most important, the most important thing is that this time Denmark sent troops, this general is the adjutant of the Danish coach...

Moreover, the coach of Denmark is the Crown Prince of Denmark, Prince Christian, who is the target of Jim's poisoning...

Jim's information is to ask Marin for instructions - when to start...

Marin thought for a while, and gave the answer-hands on the battlefield...

As for the specific time, it was a few days after the Danish army besieged the city of Ribe. Why choose this time period? Because, at that time, the English army led by Saqqara was almost able to arrive near Ribe City.

If the Danish army coach suddenly died of poison at this time, the military will definitely be in chaos. At that time, the defenders in the city and the 10,000 English mercenaries outside the city will take the opportunity to attack again, and they will not be able to destroy the 20,000 Danish army...

Of course, the medicine must be taken in advance. Because, Cantrella is a chronic poison, it will only attack after a week. Therefore, before the Danish army arrives in Ribe City, it is necessary to calculate the time to poison. Then, a few days after the battle of Ribe City started, Prince Christian suddenly died of poisoning... The Danish army will definitely be in chaos...

However, Marin emphasized in his reply that Jim must escape from the barracks before Prince Christian's poisonous attack, and bring accurate information to Saqqara.

And, before escaping from the Danish barracks, Jim needs to "inadvertently" reveal to those around him the fact that he speaks Swedish...

In this way, as long as Jim escapes, the Danes will deduce from these details the "fact" that the Swedes poisoned Prince Christian...

At that time, let the Danes and Swedes tear it apart. Anyway, Marin will never admit to the fact that he poisoned the Danish crown prince. After all, this kind of thing is too bad, it is better to let the Swedes take the blame...

In any case, the Swedes and the Danes are fighting very hard over the issue of sovereignty and independence, and it is not wrong to have hatred for each other. Put the pot on the head of the Swedes, and outsiders will be more convinced.

Moreover, Marin had specially left clues on the Spanish side before, making people believe that the Swedes had indeed visited Caesar Borgia.

Then, based on this information, the Danes will also get the inference that "it was indeed the Swedes who poisoned Prince Christian". In this way, the Swedes can't do it if they want to...

When the time comes, let the Danes and Swedes tear it apart... No, there may be no time to tear it apart... Because, once the allied forces of Brandenburg and Saxony are defeated, Marin will not give Denmark If there is a chance, I will take the army to Denmark for a walk, and then tear a large piece of "meat" from Denmark...

It's just that everyone else is a slasher before the battle, so is he considered a "dead handsome before the battle"?
