Chapter 136： Dietmarshin

When Marin was in a dilemma, he suddenly thought of it-before, he seemed to use the southern business city of Lenzburg in the Principality of Schleswig, and Hamburg to exchange the Dietmarschen area on the Elbe Estuary and the east coast of the North Sea , Which is the later Ditmarshen County.

Dietmarshen County occupies the estuary in the western part of the Principality of Holstein. It stands to reason that it should be a very important place. Hamburg will not give up so easily.

However, there are a group of sturdy residents in Dietmarschen County, who can defeat more than 10,000 troops in Denmark and almost drowned Danish King Hans ...

Therefore, Hamburg, which has always been weak in the army, was a little bit stunned about it ... Hamburgers never felt that their army was stronger than the army of the Kingdom of Denmark ...

In fact, although Marin has figured out the specific course of the Battle of Hemingstedt that year, others may not be clear. Marin knew very well that in the battle of Hemingstedt, Dieter Marshen ’s rebel commander, Woolf Esbrand, clearly overwhelmed the Danish army with the method of breaking the dike.

Such a strategy was used many times in ancient China. But in Europe, it is very new. Moreover, in this era, because of the power of the Holy See, Europeans are still superstitious.

When Marin sent people to investigate this matter, some people even said that it was God's will that prevented Hans from gaining control of Dietmarschen.

And Marin was surprised that there are still many supporters of this dog P theory ...

In fact, this fallacy is basically a rumor that Woolf Esbrand sent people to quietly spread. However, this rumor is very marketable. why? Because this is amazing. When the 1000 militiamen of Dietmarshen and the 10,000 Danish troops battled, a sudden flood broke out and destroyed the Danish army, but the defenders of Dietmarschen lost nothing ... This is not God helping Dietmarshen, what is it?

In order to deter the Danes from invading again, the Dietmarshmen sent 3,000 people to block the upper reaches of the river and dig the levees, and gave credit to God to scare the Danes.

And after the Danes failed, they also had to make excuses for themselves. After all, more than 10,000 troops attacked 1,000 militiamen, and as a result, most of the casualties must have an appropriate excuse. You can't tell anyone-is King Hans, who leads the army, a pig?

Therefore, for the Danes, "God prevents Denmark from obtaining Dietmarshin" is also a very acceptable statement. At least, King Hans' face will not be lost ...

The reason why Marin can quickly determine from the intelligence that the Dietmarshin defeated Denmark by water attack is because he has seen too many similar battles in ancient China in his previous life, and he can judge at a glance. The Europeans of this era had never seen such a battle, and the Dietmarshens were confused, spreading rumors, and they were immediately confused.

Therefore, the Hamburgers were very reluctant to move to the Dietmarschen area. They are also afraid that Dietmar Marshal's "protection of magical skills", if forced to attack, will cause huge losses to himself.

Therefore, after discussion, the Hamburg parliament simply exchanged the Dietmarchen area with Marin and exchanged the important commercial city of Lenzburg that had been beaten down.

Although the area of ​​Lenzburg is much smaller than that of the Dietmarschen area, the commercial development there is the junction of the Principality of Holstein and the Principality of Schleswig.

Therefore, the acquisition of Lenzburg will largely obtain the opportunity to open the market of the Principality of Schleswig. What's more, the Hamburgers were originally business starters and were not good at farming. Obtaining Lenzburg, which is conducive to starting business, is obviously more in line with the appetite of Hamburgers who are good at doing business.

As for Marin, he was very happy to get the Ditmarshen County area. Of course, on the surface, a "I'm too big" emoji should be shown to the Hamburgers.

Although in the short term, in the Dietmarschen area, about one county, the tax revenue may not be as high as Rendsburg. However, that is a temporary situation.

Marin has always looked at the problem from a development perspective. Therefore, I do not care about the temporary backwardness of the Dietmarschen area. After all, the Ditmarshen area is now lagging behind, but its location is so good ...

Dietmarshen not only owns all the coastal areas of the North Sea of ​​the Principality of Holstein, with an area of ​​up to 1400 square kilometers, but also occupies the north bank of the mouth of the Elbe River, is a key area for land and water transportation.

As long as Lincoln is willing to invest, build a port here and build convenient roads ... This kind of convenient transportation area is very fast to get up ...

Actually, inside Hamburg, no one sees this. However, the leader of Hamburg City is a group of businessmen. An important feature of businessmen is that they pay more attention to short-term gains.

So, even if someone in Hamburg sees the long-term benefits prospects of the Dietmarschen area, they cannot persuade other Hamburg-born members of the businessmen.

In fact, we should not blame those parliamentarians for their short-sightedness. It is because the position of member of Parliament is not hereditary. The parliamentarians in Hamburg City all paid a lot of money to get the parliamentary post, and the term of office was only a few years. During this term, these parliamentarians of course have to desperately earn enough benefits for the family and the chamber of commerce, how come quickly. As for long-term benefits, that risk is too great and the wait is too long. Therefore, they would rather choose short-term benefits. After all, this is more stable and there is no risk ...

Meanwhile, in this era, cities and villages are strictly separated. The city is the site of merchants and handicraftsmen, while the village is the site of feudal nobles.

Even if Hamburg won the Dietmarschen area, there was no interest in farming. Because the Hamburgers are mainly commercial and handicrafts, no one wants to go farming. Coupled with the current low agricultural production in Europe, farming is not profitable at all. Moreover, in this era, the collection of agricultural taxes was not popular in Europe. No matter how big the Dietmarschen area is, it cannot provide stable taxes.

Under such circumstances, the Hamburg Parliament will naturally choose the commercial city of Lenzburg, which is important in location and can provide tax, and give up the Ditmarshen area, which is large but has no stable tax ...

Marin had been worried that if the Las Vegas city was built into the local area, it would corrode the local nobles, officials and military officers. However, if you put it in the Principality of Schleswig, you are not at ease. Because the Principality of Schleswig is the old nest of the Schleswig nobles who are about to be "closed" ~ www.novelhall.com ~ is put there, it is easy to get out of control.

After consideration, Marin suddenly discovered that the Det Marshen area is a very good area to establish Las Vegas City ...

First of all, the Dietmarchen region is neither in the territory of the Marin-ruled area nor in the newly controlled Principality of Schleswig. Moreover, the location is excellent. If the new Las Vegas city is built on the north bank of the Elbe estuary, there is a huge advantage of convenient transportation.

Because, Las Vegas City can not only be used to ban the nobles of the Principality of Schleswig and Oldenburg, and let them enjoy. At the same time, the city can also be open to the outside world, attracting the big merchants of Hamburg to come to "Hipi". There are so many entertainment projects, and there are Mao girls ... I do n’t believe those rich Hamburger merchants will refuse to smash the silver ...

At the same time, not only the merchants of Hamburg, but also the merchants of Lübeck and Bremen nearby, heard that such a place would also be attracted. Of course, some nobles nearby are indispensable ...

As long as these people come, Marin can completely let the service staff of the newly built Las Vegas City take the posture of receiving God to make these rich people happy, and they are not afraid of returning customers ...

When the time comes, Las Vegas City can not only be a place to circumvent and corrupt those untrusted surrendering nobles, but also be used to operate foreign businesses and make a lot of profits.

Thinking of this, Marin immediately made a decision to take the Dittmarshen area immediately. Then, on the north bank of the Elbe estuary, the later Blensbitel at the mouth of the Kiel Canal, the new Las Vegas city was built, and it became a famous entertainment center in the North German region, attracting large merchants and noblemen nearby Spending huge sums of money, prospering the local economy, and at the same time, in exchange for a large amount of profits for Marin ...
