Chapter 7 The Holy and the Holy

The Norman Empire, its full name is the sacred Northern Norman Empire, or it is called the Supreme Empire. It is an extremely powerful and terrifying country born with the wishes of tens of millions of Normans.

However, there is a little problem here. That is, becoming, Egil is known as the noble northern emperor, and his empire is also the noble northern empire.

So what is the concept of "north"?

Compared with continental Europe, Scandinavia and England are considered the north. Compared with Italy, Germany, France, Bolan and other countries are considered the north. Compared with North Africa, the entire Europa is also north and even divided from a geographical location. The northern hemisphere north of the equator is considered the north...

Therefore, "North" is indeed a very easy-to-operate word. It can be adjusted over time, momentum, strength and even mood. This may be one of the reasons why Emperor Frederick hurriedly challenged the Normans. Because he was not sure whether the "North" mentioned by Egil included the entire Germany. As a group of Germans, the strength shown by the Normans in recent times has also made many Germans fascinated. Seeing that their country is becoming increasingly difficult for poverty and political struggles, the Norman Empire in the north is becoming more and more prosperous under Egil's governance. German Germans say they are envious, jealous and hateful, and they also have a little fantasy: It would be great if it was my emperor.

This is the so-called people living in barbaric countries and yearning for the lives of people living in civilized countries. The strength of the Norman Kingdom, especially the strengthening of agricultural technology, has made the country's agriculture developed and its food reserves full. People will basically not endure hunger, and even can eat a full meal most of the time.

Eat full.

This was an extremely rare, extremely luxurious, and extremely capable condition in the Middle Ages, when agricultural technology was backward and productivity was low.

What's more, there is no so-called overpopulation in this era. The population is largely linked to national strength - each country has a large amount of wasteland suitable for cultivation but not reclaimed. As long as it is properly organized and has sufficient material reserves, refugees from other countries can be accepted into the country without limit. In this way, it can strengthen national strength.

In fact, it is better to say that the Holy Roman Empire launched an attack because of the other party's title. It is better to say that the emerging Norman Kingdom absorbed too much population from the Holy Roman Empire, causing the national strength of the Holy Roman Empire to plummet. This caused dissatisfaction among Frederick and the nobles of his command.

The conflicts between the two sides were irreconcilable. The monarchs of both sides did not want to reconcile. Although they suffered a defeat at the hands of the Eastern Romans, Frederick's arrogant wiseness did not change. In other words, the older the emperor had exhausted his energy, and his decisiveness and courage when he was young gradually became stubborn and brave.

However, although the opponent chosen by the Holy Roman Empire was not very good, the time he chose was quite good. Frederick was considered a wise ruler at least, and the opportunity was very accurate. Norman's two armies, and Egir's army was crowned in Rome. If he wanted to attack the German land, he would have to cross the Alps. He would definitely not be able to get through for a while.

The distance between Queen Artoria was even further apart. At this moment, the Queen of Britain was leading a large army to kill and kill in the old place where Novgorod was originally. It seemed that she would not give up if she chased her all the way to Moscow.

In this way, Norman had an army of 200,000, but he could not quickly enter the battlefield.

Before the Normans reacted, the Holy Roman Empire had enough time to completely regain its territory, Hamburg, Lübeck, Bremen, the so-called North Saxony, as well as the territory that was originally ceded to the other party, Bo Melania, and the Jutland Peninsula. After that, Frederick decided to concentrate his efforts to defeat Artoria first, and completely annex the opponent's territory on the Europa continent. Then he went south and cleaned up Egil.

Frederick's plan... is actually quite good. If it can be implemented, it will mobilize all the power of the entire Holy Roman Empire and use its superior forces to fight against Norman's two armies respectively.

This seems to have a lot of good nose.

However, Frederick ignored a little.

Time difference.

Frederick's plan...is completely based on the time difference. That is, the opponent's 200,000 troops cannot quickly enter the battlefield. He suddenly declared war and then raided the territory that originally belonged to the Holy Roman Empire. In this way, he would complete this strategic goal before not many enemies knew about it and reacted. Everything that followed was still based on the ability to quickly defeat the Artorian army.

But what if? I mean, the other party's reaction was much faster than Frederick imagined. Egil's army quickly mobilized, crossed the Alps, and then attacked Bavaria, which was the most reproached for Zhentrell, and even the entire Southern Germany. Before Frederick occupied Northern Saxony, Bo Melania and the Jutland Peninsula, he disrupted the entire Southern Germany. In this way, after receiving the news, the Bavarian army, that is, Frederick's own direct troops, would collapse due to the raid of his hometown.

So after all, it is still a matter of time. The speed of hands is fast and slow. The competition is the right assembly speed, marching speed and offensive ability of both sides. The reason why Frederick dared to declare war was because he had such an advantage. He believed that after the other party received the news of his declaration of war, it would take several weeks or even more. By then, he had probably stabilized the entire North Germany form. The strategic initiative was in his hands............

However, things were not as simple as Frederick imagined. In fact, the day after the announcement of his declaration of war, he had already sent a letter to Egil's case through Fei Ge.

After being surprised by Egil's "Oh?!", he exclaimed again: "I really have imagination." Finally, he commented: "What a pity."
