After hearing the inquiry from Count Antonios, both Henry Duke, who was drinking Earl's milk tea, were stunned, but after glancing at each other, they did not immediately answer, as if they were thinking about something.

At this time, Magnus I, Duke of Saxony-Lauenburg, who was sitting in the second seat, suddenly raised another question:

"Everyone, war pay attention to 'famous division'. We have gathered 40,000 troops this time. It stands to reason that there is no problem in dealing with 10,000 people in Beihai. The question is-what name should we use to attack Beihai? "

Hearing this, several other princes were stunned for a moment-yeah, the war is always famous, especially the big nobles, who are most particular about this. You ca n’t say publicly that Laozi just wanted to ransack the Beihai Kingdom, right?

Several other princes were a little stunned, but Charlie, Earl of Gelden, was confident and seemed to be confident ...

Brunswick-Henry, Duke of Wolfenbüttel, saw Charlie's face and couldn't help asking:

"Count Charles, what do you think?"

Charlie took a sip of milk tea, and then said slowly:

"It's definitely not possible to fight without declaring war, but we can't find an excuse for declaring war. After all, the Beihai Kingdom didn't mess with us. So, I thought of a good way ..."

"What's the solution?" Six eyes looked at Charlie Earl Gelden eagerly at the same time.

"Cut, a bunch of waste, can't even come up with an idea!" Charlie, now the Earl of Duke of Gordes, thought contemptuously.

Of course, on the surface, he dared not say so, but said indifferently:

"We can use the name of bandits to lead our troops into the North Münster area ..."

"Suppress bandits?" 6 people were in unison, but all were in doubt.

"Yes, bandits!" Count Charlie said affirmatively.

"Right, even if we are gangsters, how can we go to the North Sea country? This doesn't make sense ..." Otto VIII, Earl of Tecklenburg wondered.

Count Charles rolled his eyes and explained:

"We certainly shouldn't go to the bandits in other countries, but the bandits from our own country have fled to other countries? Isn't it good for us to lead the army?"

"But the bandits don't need 40,000 troops? Besides, where are the bandits?" Asked Simon V, Earl of Lipper.

Earl Charlie wanted to lift the table-really a group of pig teammates ...

But he patiently explained:

"There are no gangsters, we can 'make'-from now on, we will specially select a group of light cavalry, let them pretend to be horse gangsters, wandering in the northern regions of Ravensburg and Lipperber ..."

"Then, Master Antonios and Simon, you deliberately openly asked for help from several of our countries ... In this way, it is reasonable for us to gather 40,000 troops to come over soon? We are here to help the bandits ..."

"But the bandits don't need the 40,000 army ..." Simon V said depressed, the child was too sincere.

"How many people do you control? We just need to find a reason. There is an excuse, it's reasonable or unreasonable!" Count Charles was not good.

At this time, Henry, Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg, also nodded:

"Yes, whether it is reasonable or unreasonable, we just need a decent excuse. The reason is unreasonable, don't worry. Because most of the princes of the imperial court do not look at the North Sea country, and they may be unlucky. If it was n’t for Friedrich of Saxony who led his troops to Baden, maybe he would take the lead in finding troubles in the North Sea Kingdom. After all, they had hatred before. But if Lord Fredrik took the lead to send troops, it might be nothing for us. Now ... "

In fact, Henry the Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg had a great relationship with Frederick III. Because his wife, Mrs. Margaret, is the sister-in-law of Elector Frederick III of Saxony. Therefore, Henry, Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg, was the brother-in-law of Frederick III, the elector of Saxony.

If it weren't for this kind of relative relationship, even if the seven-nation coalition took advantage of the Beihai State University, it might be liquidated by Frederick III afterwards. After all, the benefits of the North Sea country, Saxon electorate also want to account for ...

Moreover, from the map, the Principality of Brunswick-Lüneburg is the closest to the Principality of the North Sea. Its western border is close to the North Münster area, and the northern border is close to the provinces of Oldenburg and Bremen.

When it comes to the division of the North Sea, the Brunswick-Lüneburg principality is the closest to the North Sea, and it is also the most convenient for annexing and dividing up the land of the North Sea.

But first of all, the most important thing for the coalition forces of the seven countries is not the land of the North Sea, but the secret of high yields in agriculture ...

As neighboring countries of the North Sea, several princely states have more or less discovered some anomalies in the North Sea. For example, the North Sea State has never worried about food issues. Even the serfs in the manor can eat soft bread that does not contain unpleasant impurities such as soil, stones, wood chips (actually doped with straw bran, but not hard).

This discovery surprised several neighboring princes. You know, these princely states are not too poor, but the serfs can not reach this standard of living.

Generally speaking, serfs can only eat black loaves of bread mixed with a lot of impurities such as earth, stones, wood chips, and wild vegetables. Because of the addition of soil and stones, the black loaf is extremely hard and can be used as a brick. In many records of the Middle Ages, there are records of sturdy peasants who killed or injured thieves with black loaf ...

Moreover, many serfs couldn't even eat this bad black loaf, they could only use rye grains and wild vegetables to cook porridge. That taste is completely pig-grade.

But what the spies of several princes saw-the serfs of the North Sea Kingdom, not only can eat softer bread, but also enough ... this kind of life, I am afraid that only the noble little nobility can live ...

You know, it's not easy to grind rye into flour. Because, the mill also collects the flour. In this era, most of the mills are in the hands of the lords, and they are important noble property. Most people want to use the mill, and the fee is very high.

Therefore, in this era, the serfs who could eat black brick loaf as hard as bricks were considered good. Poor serfs can't eat flour-made food, they can only use rye directly to cook with wild vegetables, and also have less salt (salt is too expensive). Rye has a bitter taste, and less salt ... that taste ...

...

Through the life of the serfs on the border estates of the Beihai Kingdom, several vassal states reached a conclusion that the Beihai Kingdom is not short of food, and even has a lot of food ...

Then, they each sent spies to investigate in Beihai. Although most of the spies were killed or injured, the core secrets were not obtained. However, the seven princes all confirmed one thing-the Beihai country did master a high-yield food technology, the core of which is fertilizer ...

...

Therefore, the main purpose of the formation of coalition forces by the seven princes this time was to capture a fertilizer processing plant and obtain the secret of fertilizer, that is, the secret of high agricultural production. With this secret, even if they cannot annex too much land in Beihai, they will certainly be able to make a fortune in the future. After all, food is very expensive in Europe ...

And the seven princes chose this time as the hands-on target, which is the North Münster area ...

Because ~ www.novelhall.com ~ The North Münster area is very close to the Principality of Brunswick-Lüneburg, the Principality of Ravensburg and Lipperber, and the Principality of Braunschweig-Wolfenbiter Not too far.

As for Saxony-the Principality of Fort Launce and Geldenberg are far apart, but these two countries are small countries, they have no right to speak, and naturally listen to the arrangements of the big brothers ...

...

After deciding on the plan to "bandit the bandits and chase into the North Sea", seven princes selected 2,000 light cavalry from each army, disguised as horse bandits, and began to be in Ravensburg and Lipper. Activities in the north, and really ransacked some villages and towns, to act more realistic. Of course, no murder.

Then, the states of Ravensburg and Lipper openly asked for help from five other countries and asked them to send troops to help the bandits ... But in fact, the 40,000 troops had already gathered in the territory of Ravensburg ...

Seeing that the time was almost running, the seven vassal states started their army and began the hunt for the 2000 "horse bandits" ... chasing and chasing, they entered the territory of the North Sea State of North Münster ...
