Chapter 48： Post-war

The woman lying on the bed in the main room is obviously the wife of Edo Wilmken, the younger sister of John V, Earl of Oldenburg, and the cousin of the Danish King Hans ...

I saw this woman. She was stabbed in the chest with a wound, bleeding a lot, and red the bed sheet. And lying beside her is a baby who has not breathed ...

"Asshole, who killed them?" Marin jumped like thunder. In his plan, the two women, one big and one small, are both alive. He doesn't care about the small life and death, but the big one must live alive!

"Yes ... It was Baron Edo who killed himself ..." A surrendering Jevre soldier replied tremblingly.

"What? This guy is crazy? Actually killing his wife and daughter?" Marin couldn't believe it, but the dozens of surrendering Yevre fighters in the room testified that Edo Wilmken killed him.

Marin suddenly remembered Chongzhen, the king of the Ming Dynasty, who was also killing his wife and daughter ... However, that was because Chongzhen did not want his wife and daughter to be humiliated after his death. After all, ancient China was an era of great prestige. However, in Europe ... there is no such worry at all, OK ...

The most important thing is that Hedwig is the princess of Oldenburg and the cousin of the Danish king ... Even if he catches them, he will not treat Hedwig ...

So, the final conclusion is-Edo Wilmken is crazy ...

Edo. Wilmken was crazy, but left Marin with a huge problem-how to deal with Denmark's blame ...

As for Oldenburg, Marin did not look down on them. In this kind of garbage country, just send two or three thousand troops to destroy him. But the problem is, there are Denmarks after others ...

Therefore, Marin now has to face a very serious diplomatic incident ...

Hedwig is after all a distinguished princess. Although Marin was depressed and her death, she had to deal with her body. So, Marin immediately asked the doctor to dispose of her body, and looked for the finest coffin to collect.

As for Edo Wilmken, who was beaten into a sieve, Marin hated him now, and decided to drop his body in the city to show the public. The crime was rebellion, plus the murder of Princess Hedwig ...

The Battlefield Hospital began to be busy, accepting the large number of wounded who had been evacuated from the battlefield. In this siege, Marin's men killed 14 and injured 30.

Moreover, these deaths and injuries were basically caused by forcibly impacting the city gate and the main fortress gate. The most depressing thing is that the death of the five musketeers was basically hacked to death. In addition, four of them died from bleeding.

And the other 30 wounded people basically survived. This is because Marin formed a modernized battlefield medical team, all using cooked white gauze and alcohol to disinfect the wound. Coupled with the gold sore medicines configured by Morzhan and Battle, the wounded basically survived without infection.

If you switch to another army, at least half of the 30 wounded will die. But because of the medical treatment of the battlefield medical team, except for the four wounded who suffered too much blood loss, the rest were all rescued.

Of course, this is also because these wounded people all suffered from sword injuries. If the opponent has a musket, it is a problem. The wounded who were hit by muskets and artillery were called life and death, and were extremely difficult to treat. After all, the lead shot of a musket will roll over into the body, causing serious internal injuries. And the cannonball, needless to say, is definitely a serious injury with missing arms and legs ...

Fortunately, the Jever army was a cold weapon force, and with Marin letting the subordinates wear chest armor and helmets, the loss was not much. The sword wound, as long as it is not fatal and there is not much bleeding, can still be saved.

After dealing with the wounded, it is the issue of prisoners of war. Marin was too lazy to deal with it, so he handed it to Schwartz, chose a location, and detained them. But the 40-odd soldiers who had stayed in the main castle room of Jever Castle were asked by Marin to be kept alone. Because they are all witnesses to the death of Hedwig. If necessary, they are required to give a certificate to prove that Hedwig was not killed by Marin, but by Edo Wilmken.

Even Marin planned to choose four of the 40-odd people to **** Hedwig ’s body to Oldenburg to explain the situation.

Of course, for the death of Hedwig, Marin also made plans for bleeding. No way, Hedwig died after all during his siege, and he was also responsible for Hedwig's death.

Now Denmark is in a big situation, especially the maritime power is too strong, and it is not something that it can resist. Therefore, when admitting counsel, you must admit counsel. So, Marin is ready to be blackmailed ...

……

There was news from Wangland in the north, and the defenders there also surrendered. After all, the East Frisian army fought a blitz, and the opponent was unprepared. Although hundreds of soldiers retreated into the castle in the city, the other party did not have time to prepare the grain supplies. Food supplies are actually stored in warehouses not far from the castle. However, the defender had to retreat hurriedly, too late to take it ...

So, after being hungry for a few days, the defenders in the castle couldn't stand it anymore and surrendered ...

The North Road Army's casualties were not large, mainly concentrated when the army first rushed into the city. A dozen people were killed and injured, and then several were injured after entering the city. Later, Stade did not attack the fortress in the city. Because he learned that the other party hadn't had time to bring food into the castle, he directly besieged, cooking every day in front of the castle, and enticing the soldiers in the castle to be cheap. Finally, the soldiers in the castle became infighted because of hunger, and finally surrendered.

Marin is very satisfied with Stade's approach. This kind of insignificance has already won his true story ... So, Marin wrote a letter in praise of him. Then, instructions were given-members of the Wilmken family in Wangerland, there is no need to stay ... especially male members ...

However, in the letter, Marin requested that the male members of the Wilmken family be killed in battle ...

After all, although these people are members of the family of the rebels, the Malingdong method of hacking and eradicating roots will inevitably be criticized. Therefore, "death to war" is the best choice. In this way, the reputation of both parties is not affected ...

To be honest, Marin is both appreciative and opposed to the Western rule of not killing nobles. The appreciation is that it is indeed more civilized. At least, the nobles are more civilized. The objection is that it is too stupid to do so. If you don't cut the grass, the opponent will have the opportunity to oppose you in exile, which will make you restless.

The British side is the best example. The York family and Lancaster family have experienced a hundred years of war. The two have changed several leaders and continued to fight for hundreds of years.

If Marin did not intervene, this war would end with Henry VII killing the last male member of the York family, Earl Edward ~ www.novelhall.com ~ So, the choice of Henry VII was right, After killing the male members of the York family, no one will fight him for the throne. If the unspoken rules among the nobles are adhered to, the Red and White Rose War will not end.

Of course, because of Marin's intervention, Count Edward escaped, and the "Red and White Rose War" will continue, and Britain will have to be chaotic ...

This example shows that weeding is the best option. Although **** and inhuman, it is the best choice to get things done.

In history, after Henry VII killed Earl Edward, the country gradually stabilized. By the time of Henry VIII, Britain had begun to rise gradually, and eventually became a power.

Without Henry VII ’s cruel heart, Henry VIII could not enjoy domestic peace. Not to mention the rise, it is estimated that he must continue to fight the endless "Red and White Rose War" ......

……

The troops on the southern side did not encounter the reinforcements of the Old Kingdom of Oldenburg. Because Marin's army was moving too fast, the Wilmken family had no chance to send a messenger for help. Even the South Road Army intercepted many of the Oldenburg businessmen who were doing business in Jever and intended to send back messengers to the country, cutting off the spread of the news.

Now, the war is over. Marin now has two main tasks:

First, we must digest the fruits of war, send troops to stay here for a long time, and at the same time take over local government affairs. At the junction with the Old Kingdom of Oldenburg, a number of bunkers need to be built to guard against the Old Kingdom of Oldenburg. Of course, Jaffre Castle and Wangerland also need garrison positions.

The second task is naturally to deal with the diplomatic difficulties caused by the death of Hedwig. This is what really makes Marin headache ...
