Marin didn't mean to spread the flooding method, because it wouldn't do him any good. Such a means similar to a strategic weapon can only be the greatest deterrent when it is held in the hand and not thrown out. If it is exposed, it will not be good for Marin.

After all, Lübeck and Hamburg, although rich, have little potential for development because of their small territory. If they were fighting for territory and wanted to compete with themselves for land supremacy, Marin wouldn't mind spreading the flooding method.

And now, seeing that Lübeck and Hamburg have been relinquished, they have given up their land claims, and they will be needed politically in the future. Therefore, Marin did not intend to spread this tactic, which was very terrifying for the two Hanseatic cities. So, in front of the two Speakers, Marin swore with his Bible in his hand that as long as the two cities did not compete with him for territory, he would never tell the law of flooding, and he would not forbid Woolf. Esbrand rambled......

In addition, Lübeck and Hamburg agreed that all the prisoners of war would be taken back by Marin to dig the Münster Canal before the enemy ransom was paid. As for the food, it was borne by Marin himself.

In this regard, Marin naturally has no opinion. For other countries, the amount of food it took to feed the 73,000 captives was staggering, but for Marin, it was not a problem. It just so happens that he still has a lot of food to consume. Even if each captive was given 2 pounds of rye per day, it would be only 146,000 pounds a day. Over the course of a year, although the food consumption will reach a super staggering figure of 53.29 million pounds, the grain in Marin's granary is stored in hundreds of millions of pounds, which is completely affordable.

Moreover, 73,000 laborers are wasteful to dig a small canal. Therefore, Marin plans to change the original small canal plan to a medium-sized canal, which can accommodate two 200-ton cargo ships traveling side by side. Of course, this kind of inland river boat must not be used as a wide boat, but must be made a little more slender to be more suitable for inland river navigation. In the future, the power of these ships will be steam engines......

It can be said that this canal is of great importance to Marin. Because, it will connect the Emes and Lippe rivers. The Lippe River is a branch of the Rhine, and connecting the Lippe River is equivalent to connecting the Rhine and the Ruhr River. In this way, the coal can be transported north smoothly in the future.

Of course, this is not to say that Marin is going to do industry by the sea. In fact, the industrial area of Marin is still located in the Ruhr area, and he will definitely annex the Ruhr area in the future.

However, the canal carried coal to the coast to supply the coal needs of seafaring ships. After all, it will definitely be the era of steamships in the future. In the future, Marin plans to convert his warships and ocean-going merchant ships into sailing ships. Turn off the steam engine when the wind is downwind and use the sails to drive the boat. When there is a headwind or no wind, the steam engine is turned on. Of course, during naval battles, in order to facilitate the pursuit of enemy ships or escape, it is also possible to start the steam engine. In this way, a lot of space can be saved for storing coal, and more other materials and goods can be loaded.

Although after entering the age of the steam engine, air pollution was inevitable. However, this is the price of development and it is difficult to avoid it. In addition, Marin could have placed the industrial zone only in the Ruhr area. If a capital district like Aurich doesn't have industry, then there will be no pollution......

Marin is not like some hypocritical sluts in later generations, while enjoying the fruits of industrial civilization, he also hypocritically shouts about environmental protection, and he especially wants to deindustrialize...... Deindustrialization, is that to bring people back to an agrarian society? Europe and the United States deindustrialized because of the new manufacturers in China, which provided them with enough cheap industrial products. If we go to industrialization again, who will provide us with industrial goods? Counting on Ah San or African Black Uncle? Can it be reliable?

Despite the crossing, Marin rushed to catch the IQ of those who shouted "de-industrialization...... Therefore, Marin decided that before he died, he would write in his suicide note - whoever clamoured for "deindustrialization" would throw him or her into the primeval forest, not give him any industrial products, and leave him or her to fend for himself...... As long as he dares to make a fire to cook and pollute the atmosphere, he will be smoked to death...... Banning it from eating cooked food means starting a fire and air pollution......

……

After discussing the issue of the division of interests, the next step is to discuss the next action plan. After all, now that Sweden, the tripartite alliance between Marin and Lübeck and Hamburg, did not participate in the war, naturally they did not have any benefit, but only won the decisive battle. But in fact, Frederick III, the Elector of Saxony, is still at large, and Denmark in the north has not yet had time to pay attention to it because of the war in the south.

So, a very important question is in front of everyone - next, is it going south or north?

Naturally, he went south in pursuit of Frederick III. After all, this guy ran away with a few hundred knights. If you can't catch him, the war won't end.

And to go north is to go to Denmark again. Then, land on Zealand and attack Copenhagen one more time. This time, Marin said that he was going to cut off an oversized piece of flesh from the Dane's body.

Marin had already thought about it in his heart - after this battle, he would be truly famous in Europe. Having defeated 50,000 elite enemy troops, no matter which country's monarch you are, you must be impressed with yourself. At this time, the time is ripe to snatch a crown from Denmark......

After all, the Danish royal family occupies the two crowns of Denmark and Norway, which is a waste, and it is a waste to score one for yourself......

Thinking about what it's like to be a king, Marin can't help but get his blood boiling. Duke Marin, after all, he is not as domineering as His Majesty Marin......

"I support going south!" Speaker of the Lübeck Parliament, Tagfacht, said:

"If you can't catch Frederick III, Elector of Saxony, it's not over yet. Moreover, if we catch this guy, we can also ask for hundreds of thousands of gold coins! You know, that's an elector, comparable to the existence of a king! ”

Obviously, the Electorate of Saxony was rich. Originally, Saxony was divided in two according to the Treaty of Leipzig. It seems that the Duchy of Saxony is not much smaller than the Elector of Saxony. But in reality, the Electorate of Saxony was much richer. Because, when choosing the land, it was the eldest son, the Elector of Ernst, who chose it first. As the first picker, it is natural to select areas with more cities and more developed economies.

So, although the whole of Greater Saxony is well developed, the Electorate of Saxony is certainly richer than the Duchy of Saxony. The Duchy of Saxony had paid Marin a ransom of one million Gulden gold coins, which was a lot of money, although it was a lot of money. If you change to another duke, you can't make up so much money even if you borrow it. And the Elector of Saxony, it is estimated that if you take out a million gold coins, you don't need to borrow much money to get it......

After all, the Saxony business district is the second largest business district after the Wende business district. What's more, Saxony has always been a region with a relatively developed handicraft industry. Before the Industrial Revolution, Saxony's handicrafts were a major economic event and brought a lot of tax revenue to Saxony's finances.

Therefore, unlike the cities of Lübeck and Hamburg in the Wende district, which relied on maritime transport and trade, the Hanseatic cities in the Saxony district were responsible for selling goods made by the developed handicraft industry in Saxony to all parts of Germany in exchange for money...... This model makes the Saxon business district second only to the Wende business district, which monopolized the profiteering trade in the Baltic region, and the second place among the four major business districts of the Hanseatic League, which is richer than the Rhine business district, which has developed shipping......

The Electorate of Saxony and the Duchy of Saxony, although the terrain is not flat and the arable land is not very fertile, is still one of the most developed regions in Germany. It can even be said that the German region does not include the Flemish region and the Milan region, which belong to the Netherlands of the HRE, where the handicraft industry is most developed...... It wasn't until the advent of the steam engine in the 19th century that Saxony's status as the industrial leader was suppressed by the Ruhr region, which was rich in coal......

It is precisely because of Saxony's developed economy that there is a lot of oil and water to be fished. Therefore, the meaning of Tagfacht is obvious - let's go south, chase it to the territory of the Electorate of Saxony, and rob him...... Then, in making the other party pay a huge amount of compensation......
