At this time, the coalition of princes had completely given up the plan to live in peace with the Habsburg family, and decided to unite France to destroy the Habsburg family at once. In this way, it would be possible to get through once and for all.
But the problem is that they cannot defeat the Habsburg family's army alone. Without the support of the French, they will be unable to support themselves. If the French support them fully, they will indeed be sure to defeat the Habsburg family. After all, the French have great potential for war. Moreover, coincidentally, Spain, an important ally of the Habsburg family, was busy "hiding and seeking" with the Moroccan rebels, and a large number of troops were trapped in Morocco and could not be transferred.
After all, the Vatas dynasty in Morocco has not perished. If Spain withdraws its troops at this time, it will be a waste of all previous efforts.
In addition, the North Sea Kingdom, another powerful ally of the Habsburg family, was unable to support them because of Marin's "missing".
Taking advantage of this opportunity, if the coalition of princes can unite with the main force of France, it will indeed destroy the Habsburg family, which will make the Habsburg family unable to relieve it for decades.
However, the confident coalition of princes was hit by the head - Louis XII actually refused to cooperate and gave up this great opportunity...
...
In fact, Louis XII also had his own considerations. The Spanish army was trapped in Morocco, which was an opportunity to destroy the Habsburg family. But from another perspective, isn’t it a good opportunity for France to invade Italy?
More than half of Spain's troops are currently trapped in Morocco, and Italy is naturally short of troops. If the French take this opportunity and suddenly head south to Italy, they will naturally have an advantage.
As for the conflict in Switzerland, Louis XII believed that the confrontation between the two sides would be the best for France. With the coalition of princes restrained the Habsburg family, the Habsburg family would definitely not be able to withdraw troops to support the Italian battlefield.
In this way, what the French had to do was to dispatch a large army, drive straight into, and go straight to the Kingdom of Naples...
In order to annex the Kingdom of Naples, which had many volcanoes, France planned to compromise with Venice...
How to compromise? It is to give up the complete annexation of the Principality of Milan!
Previously, the French invaded Italy was to first annex the Principality of Milan, and then head south to attack the Kingdom of Naples.
But this time Louis XII decided to go the other way - he planned to unite Venice first and make a move to annex the Principal of Milan. Then, the Venetian army stayed outside the city of Milan to confront the Principal of Milan. The main force of the French army quickly moved south and occupied the Kingdom of Naples before the Spaniards reacted...
At this time, the Spaniards had limited military strength in the Kingdom of Naples, and even famous generals like Gonzalo de Cordoba were not present. As long as the French moved faster, they could quickly occupy the entire Kingdom of Naples.
When the Spanish reacted, the French army had already controlled the entire Kingdom of Naples...
...
In addition, Louis XII also intends to change his tactics - not to fight against the Spaniards, but to fight against the city...
The Spanish army is now popular with the Marin phalanx (Spanish phalanx) that Marin "invented" by Marin. It has strong field combat capabilities and even some restraints the French knights.
Therefore, Louis XII believes that a decisive battle with the Spaniards is not very cost-effective. There are many French knights, and they can reach up to 20,000 knights. If they directly attack the Spanish musket array, the losses will be huge.
However, if these knights brought infantry to guard the city and fortresses, they would be very strong. Horseless knights are still masters of skill. Half of the ship is equipped with plate armor, and they also suppress ordinary infantry on the top of the city.
With the blocking of the city wall, the Spanish muskets had no advantage. After all, the distance between muskets in this era was only forty or fifty meters, and it would be useless if they were farther away. Louis XII planned to let the French knights hide behind the battlements on the city wall and see whoever climbed up... In this way, the Spanish would definitely be helpless...
In addition, the French also prepared the iron gate for the enemy's door-blasting tactics, waiting for the Spanish to attack...
...
In this case, France certainly had no energy to take care of Switzerland's affairs. However, Louis XII was kind and did not withdraw the elite French troops in the "Swiss Resistance Army". If those people were withdrawn, Frenzberg could do his best to deal with the coalition forces of the princes...
When France was unwilling to increase its troops, a temporary balance appeared on the Swiss plateau - the vassal coalition had not sent full support and did not dare to attack rashly; the "Swiss Resistance Army" mainly in the elite French army also suspended its offensive due to France's inaction; and Frenzberg's army, because it needed to absorb and digest the newly recruited mercenaries and the mercenaries recruited before and after being captured, was unable to provoke two enemies in a short time... Therefore, the three forces have suspended hostilities and stared at them...
...
Compared with the calm in the south, the Beihai Kingdom by the North Sea caused huge waves - Ma Lin, the grand duke of the Beihai Kingdom who was rumored to die in a shipwreck, actually returned to Emden alive...
According to witnesses, their grandfather was very embarrassed when he came back - his hair was not cut, his beard was not shaved (Malin deliberately left it long), his whole body was messy and dirty...
Moreover, when he landed, his legs seemed to be a little weak - that was scared. After all, before landing, Marin experienced a shipwreck accident...
Therefore, Marin didn't have to pretend, and directly acted in the embarrassing appearance when he landed on the shore.
...
After Malin landed, Emden City suddenly became lively. Many people's originally panic-like mentality instantly calmed down. Because, they knew that the God of War was back...
The title of "God of War" was a title that the people of the North Sea Kingdom spontaneously gave Marin to Marin. It was mainly because since Marin became the Earl of East Friesland, he had never thought he had won every battle. The only mistake was the time when Diet Marshen was captured alive because of his arrogance. But then Diet Marshen announced that he had the conditions to surrender to Marin, so that was not a failure, and he could only say that he had no victory.
Therefore, Marin, who is almost invincible, is naturally called the "God of War" by the people of Beihai. Although this God of War is vulgar, shameless and cunning, and not so decent...
...
The news of Marin returning alive reached Orich, and Angela immediately drove to greet Caesar with Little Caesar. Schwartz and other regents also came to greet him. Of course, Angela, Schwartz and others knew the inside story and were not excited at all. However, for political needs, they all pretended to be "I'm very excited"...
Only Little Caesar, that's really exciting...
Caesar, who is only 10 years old, has experienced great ups and downs this year, which is really exciting...
Earlier, he learned that his "omnipotent" father had encountered a shipwreck and had a slim chance of survival... This made him mentally collapse at one point.
After despair for a while, Caesar remembered Marin's instructions before departure. He realized that he, a young man, should shoulder the important tasks of the country and the family...
So, Caesar, who once took his younger brother to play wildly all day long, disappeared. Instead, it was a little Caesar who worked hard to learn, grow up, and strived to be a qualified heir to the grand duke. After learning about the bad news of his father's "died", Caesar has not laughed for several months...
