Earlier, in order to unite against the then powerful Kingdom of Denmark, Marin formed a four-party alliance with Lübeck, Hamburg and Sweden to unite militarily against the Danish Kalmar alliance.

As a result, this quadripartite alliance really defeated the Danish Kalmar Alliance, which seemed to be extremely powerful before. After that, the Quad alliance all reaped huge benefits. Marin received a reparation from a principality, and also took control of the Count of Oldenburg by the way; Lübeck and Hamburg not only divided the Duchy of Holstein, but also wiped out the Danish navy and controlled the collection of toll taxes on the Øresund. Not only that, but because of the outright Piovan of Denmark, a rival in the maritime trade, Lübeck and Hamburg controlled the bulk of the Baltic trade, and the economic benefits were enormous. Strictly speaking, Lübeck and Hamburg were the biggest winners of that war.

As for Sweden, the gains are also very large. The southern part of Sweden, which has been under the direct control of Denmark for hundreds of years, is also the best part of Sweden. Even, because of hundreds of years of rule, the southern coast of Sweden was outnumbered by Danes.

According to the habit of names, there are more Danish people called XX Sen. The Swedes and Norwegians, on the other hand, are more called XX pines. Actually, pine and forest are just the difference in pronunciation between the Scandinavian and Danish names, but the meaning is actually the same. For example, Larsson, a famous Swedish footballer in later generations, is actually of Danish descent. Larsson was born in Helsingborg, and Helsingborg is across the sea from the Øresund Strait and the Danish island of Zealand, before the rise of the ancient second master to recover the whole of Sweden, Helsingborg and other southern coastal areas of Sweden have been under Danish rule, and there are many Danes.

However, Sweden's reclaim of the southern coast was also the time when Sweden began to take off. Because, with the southern coastal areas, especially the southwestern coastal areas, Sweden can break through the Danish naval blockade and participate in the vigorous voyage.

In later generations, after Sweden acquired the southern coastal areas, it did engage in great voyages. For example, the famous sailing ship "Gothenburg" is the most powerful proof of Sweden's participation in the great maritime trade.

Therefore, helping Sweden get the southern coastal area and eliminating the Danish Navy is obviously to unlock the Great Navigation Skills for Sweden. Therefore, Marin was very remorseful afterwards. What's more, Sweden also got the island of Gotland, in the center of the Baltic Sea, which can be said to have made a lot of money.

In other words, in the previous military operation to defeat Denmark, Marin sent the most troops and contributed the most, but he was the one who gained the least......

After all, the Duchy of Schleswig is only 9,200 square kilometers in size, and commerce is not well developed. Lübeck and Hamburg not only carved up the Principality of Holstein, which covered an area of tens of thousands of square kilometers, but also eliminated the maritime trade capacity of commercial rival Denmark, and controlled the Øresund Strait, which had the greatest economic benefits. Sweden, on the other hand, has the largest land area. After all, the vast area of southern Sweden also has tens of thousands of square kilometers, including valuable access to the sea.

Now, seeing that Denmark's decline has become inevitable, Marin regrets that he was too good to Sweden in the first place. Moreover, Marin also foolishly helped Sweden unearth the great treasure of the rise of the entire Swedish Empire in the Faylon copper mine......

Speaking of which, Marin was so depressed that he wanted to die. It is conceivable that when Marin developed the Faylon copper mine to the extreme, perhaps the Swedes would pick peaches and squeeze out their own power. Of course, while he was there, the Swedes might not dare. After all, Marin is a powerful man with a large army. But in the future, when the country ruled by Marin's descendants is in trouble, the Swedes may take the opportunity to turn around and take back half of the Faylon copper mine.

Of course, if Marin doesn't develop the Fayilun copper mine, the Swedes will develop it themselves. Throughout the 17th century, Sweden's most glorious time was to rely on the financial resources provided by the Faylon copper mine to supply Sweden to fight for hegemony.

It's a pity that Second Master Gu is a military genius, but he chose the wrong direction to fight for hegemony. If he hadn't fallen into the big hole of Germany and hadn't met Wallenstein, his old enemy, he might have lived for a few more decades. Decades is enough time for the second master Gu to pack up Poland and Russia as grandsons. As long as the Polish hinterland, which is rich in agricultural and mineral resources, or Russia, is obtained, Sweden flies for sure. Moreover, at that time, Poland was beginning to decline, and Peter I, the founder of Maozi's empire, had not yet been born, and Maozi was not very strong. It's easy to get a lot of land from these two countries. But Gu Erye's heart was too big, so he had to get involved in the huge pit of Germany, and as a result, his life was ruined......

However, these are the history of the previous life, and there is nothing to say. For his part, Marin now could foresee the decline of Denmark and the rise of Sweden. Moreover, the rise of Sweden worries Marin even more.

So, when he was in Worms, Marin hinted to King Hans of Denmark that he would not care about the conflict between Denmark and Sweden. In fact, it was tantamount to secretly encouraging Denmark to retake the southern coast of Sweden. Marin felt that it would be much better for a declining country like Denmark to control Sweden's most prosperous southern coast than for Sweden's hidden heroes to control the southern coast.

In addition, Denmark's return to the southern coast of Sweden will lead to endless wars between Denmark and Sweden, affecting the development of both countries. At that time, Marin will be able to influence the conflict between Denmark and Sweden like a referee. If you can't see who can't do it, you can help whoever you want. In short, it is to encourage the two countries to fight each other, so that neither country can develop.

In fact, Marin had long been preparing to contact Sweden with the military alliance of the "Quad Alliance". Because, if this alliance is not dissolved, once Denmark attacks Sweden in the future, Marin will passively have to stand on the side of Sweden and send troops to attack Denmark because of the alliance......

However, Marin obviously did not want to intervene in the military conflict between Denmark and Sweden, so taking advantage of the opportunity to be suppressed by the nobles at the Worms Imperial Conference, Marin decided to take the opportunity to dissolve the Quadripartite military alliance. In this way, even if Sweden and Denmark fight to the death in the future, they will have nothing to do with Marin.

Well, it's easy to find a reason - those princes don't want to see what other military ambitions Marin has......

It's just that Marin had been busy fighting and negotiating before, and when he came back, he met the autumn harvest immediately, so he delayed this matter.

Now that the autumn harvest is over, Marin has time and naturally thinks of dissolving this four-nation military alliance......

So, now that Marin was free, he immediately began to write to Lübeck, Hamburg, and Sweden, stating that he wanted to cease the activities of the Quadruple Alliance, in order to prove his determination to make peace to the outside world. In this way, the German princes could be relieved and justifiably freed from the quagmire of Sweden.

The problem, of course, is that Marin has withdrawn, but Lübeck and Hamburg have not. Marin was worried about these two wealthy cities and continued to form an alliance with Sweden to fight Denmark together. In this way, How else can Denmark be bigger than Sweden?

Therefore, Marin not only wrote to the two speakers of Lübeck and Hamburg, announcing his withdrawal from the Quadripartite Alliance, but also implicitly suggested that Lübeck and Hamburg should also withdraw from the military alliance of the Quad.

Of course, Marin was reluctant to give up the two powerful political allies of Lübeck and Hamburg. Therefore, Marin wrote to Lübeck and Hamburg that although the military alliance of the "Quadripartite Alliance" was dissolved, Marin could allow the Grand Duchy of North Sea to establish a political and economic alliance with Lübeck and Hamburg.

As for Sweden, it's better to go somewhere. The reason is also simple - Sweden is not a German prince......

In this way, Marin will be happy to remain neutral in the future, laughing at Denmark and Sweden tearing each other apart......
