Chapter 861 Land for Sovereignty

Although there are some justifications, Erik. Johansson isn't a silly white sweet little young either. He knows that the more this time, the more he can't be coaxed, even if he messes around, he has to fool the past. Otherwise, you will not be able to stand up for yourself when negotiating.

So, he forced himself to put on a disdainful posture and said:

"Are you the rightful king? Then why are 550,000 Swedes and 300,000 Finns against you being King of Sweden? This shows that God is not on your side, and you are doomed to be expelled by the Swedish people! ”

This struck Hans in the sore foot—yes, why was he so hostile to the people when he was the rightful king?

So Hans jumped up and said angrily:

"It's not you devilish minions who are bewitching the people, otherwise, Sweden is still mine!"

Seeing that Hans was enraged by himself, Erik. John Song's heart was secretly happy. But he still pretended to be righteous and said:

"God hates you, so he expelled you by the hand of the Swedish people. And now, God has chosen me to be the king of Sweden......"

"Stop!" King Hans of Denmark shouted:

"Can you get a face? Rebels and thieves! You say you are the king, where is the legal basis? A king that no one recognizes? Don't tease me, okay? ”

……

In this way, as soon as the negotiations began, it became the scene of a quarrel between the two kings......

Ma Lin was leisurely drinking milk tea at this time, and he was not in a hurry to mediate. In his opinion, Denmark and Sweden are both holding their bells of anger at this time. Therefore, it is better to let the two monarchs vent at once. When they have quarreled enough, or even tired of arguing, then it will be the time for Marin to mediate. Now interfering in their quarrel can't suppress the anger of the two. Only when they are tired of arguing and calm down can they talk about things well.

So, Marin sat on the side and drank tea slowly, silent. And the two big speakers, Tag Facht and Heisenberg, did not come forward to mediate, but allowed the two to quarrel so much. So much so that the two kings almost started fighting. At this time, the Grand Council of Lübeck, Tagfacht, asked the guards of Lübeck to isolate the two kings......

In this way, the first day passed in a fierce quarrel between the two kings. At the end of the day, Marin didn't say a word, either drinking tea or being in a daze. Of the two speakers, only the host of the Speaker Tagfacht, made an opening speech......

The next day, the two sides quarreled for a while. It was only then that Marin interjected:

"Are you two done arguing? If you don't finish arguing, then continue to ......."

Then King Hans and Eric. Johansson was silent. After arguing all day yesterday, they were also a little tired. Moreover, both sides are running out of words, and it feels like they have all the trash talk sprayed yesterday......

Marin glanced at the Grand Speaker of Lübeck, Tagfacht, who understood it. As a result, Tagfacht, as the host and moderator of the negotiations, spoke:

"Since it's a negotiation, then, please make your terms...... And then we went on to talk ......"

At this time, the newly promoted King of Sweden, Eric. Johansson quickly stood up as if he were rushing to answer:

"The condition of our Kingdom of Sweden is that Denmark, the invader, should withdraw all the invading troops on Swedish soil and apologize to our country!"

Then, the cold field was ......

Everyone looked at Eric like a fool. Johansson - didn't you wake up? Why is it so beautiful?

The Danes dispatched 15,000 elite troops this time, how can they retreat because of your words?

Of course, Eric. Johansson was not unaware of this. Rather, he was planning to ask for a sky-high price. It's just that his asking price is too ruthless. It's like haggling with a hawker, you come up and say, "Brother hawker, you can give me your stuff for free"...... Isn't that?

However, Eric . Johansson, as a veteran Swedish aristocrat, is not ordinarily thick-skinned. In the face of everyone's caring eyes for the mentally handicapped, he didn't seem to see it......

King Hans of Denmark was also killed by Eric for a time. Johansson's conditions were stunned - Nima, where did the two fools come from? Are you opening a condition? This is a provocation...... Bar......

After being stunned for a long time, Hans reacted, then stood up and spoke:

"We in Denmark are peace-loving, so our condition in Denmark is to maintain the status quo...... Later, the border was bounded by Stockholm, Sweden to the north and Denmark to the south...... In addition, we also want the Fayilun copper mine, which is already controlled by our army......"

The Danish demands are more conservative - people only want to swallow the meat that has already been eaten in their mouths, unlike Eric. Johansson's offer was so unreliable......

However, Denmark's request was unacceptable to Sweden in any case. Because, if the southern part of Sweden and the Faylon copper mines are all given to Denmark, then what is left of Sweden? Basically nothing......

So, Eric . John Sson stood up angrily and said:

"You don't want to get an inch!"

"I have to inch in?" Hans, King of Denmark, sneered, and continued:

"I was the rightful king of Sweden, and it was you rebels who started a rebellion. Now, I only take back a part of the land, and I don't want to go back to the whole of Sweden, which is simply conniving at you rebels and thieves, what do you want me to do? ”

"You're leaving Sweden's agriculture-friendly southern region, and you're leaving Sweden's main source of revenue, the Faylon copper mine, so what's left in Sweden? Is it snowy? "Eric. Johansson said angrily.

"No, you still have southern Finland ......"

"Can southern Finland compare to southern Sweden? The southern part of Sweden is much bigger than the whole of Denmark combined! ”

"Not convinced? Alright, you gather your army to fight us! As long as you can win against the Danish army, you will have the final say. The premise is that the Swedish army dares to come out from behind the tall walls of Stockholm......"

Eric. Johansson suddenly rolled his eyes - if Sweden is so fierce, will it negotiate with you? Solved by direct force......

……

Seeing that the two sides quarreled again, Marin suddenly became a little impatient:

"Two, we're not here to listen to your quarrels, don't waste any more time. Please listen to my little opinion......"

"Listen up!" King Hans said with a very face-saving face.

"My opinion is that the southern coast of Sweden goes to Denmark, after all, it has always been like this before. As for the dividing line between the two families, whether it is Stockholm or the more southerly area, you can discuss and exchange views with each other. However, I hope that both sides will take into account the actual situation before drawing conclusions...... implication is that the conditions given by Sweden are too unreasonable......

"As for the Fayilun Copper Mine......," Malin paused......

At this time, the Danish king Hans immediately said:

"If the Fayilun Copper Mine belongs to Denmark, our Kingdom of Denmark will permanently recognize half of the shares of the Grand Duke of Marin! We only need the other half! ”

Truth be told, Marin was so satisfied with Hans's terms that he almost wanted to agree.

However, this is not in line with Marin's strategy of balancing diplomacy in Northern Europe. Therefore, such a huge copper mountain that can be used as a financial cash cow, Marin has no choice but to give up his greed. In fact, even if it is returned to Sweden, Sweden is smart this time and does not dare to openly annex Marin's interests......

For such a scenario, Erik. Johansson was clearly hard to accept. After all, if these two pillar industries are lost, Sweden really won't have anything...... So, Eric . Johansson fussed unconvinced......

Marin knocked impatiently on the table and said:

"What's so bad about that? You know, you make a lot of money by exchanging land for sovereignty! After all, the Kingdom of Sweden is still an illegal country......
