Time passed in no order, and at the same time as Constantinople was famously called the "Calis case", the Holy Roman Emperor Frederick III was plotting to remove the new Pojbrad from the throne, Izh Georg.

The Hussites are the earliest Catholic heretics, and the Hussite Wars are a manifestation of the rise of nationalism among the Czech people, but unfortunately, the Hussite Church created in the early days to oppose the Holy See was burned to death by the Holy See, and its successors split in the process of struggle. This faction is mainly composed of low-level people, small craftsmen, small nobles, and low-ranking clergy, the Taborists have no power and no financial resources, relying on this war to change their courts, change their backgrounds, and become the ruling class, while the Holy Grail faction is just a simple crying child with milk to drink, and wants to attract the attention of the Holy See and the Holy Roman Emperor, after achieving the goal, they are naturally unwilling to stand with this group of barefoot peasants of the Tabor faction, and in this way, the vigorous Hussite movement came to an abrupt end,

After the war, the Holy Grail faction that held the power was naturally proud, and Izh Georg of Pojbrad, as the leader of the Holy Grail faction, was promoted as the regent by the nobles of Bohemia, and then successfully ascended the throne of Bohemia under the promise of Laszlo, becoming one of the three crowns under the name of the Holy Roman Empire - the King of Germany, the King of Italy, and the King of Bohemia, and the status of the Holy Roman Empire is second only to the emperor.

Georg was happy to ascend to the throne, but for the Holy Roman Emperor Frederick III, this was simply unacceptable, the throne passed down from Laszlo's father Albrecht II was handed over to Laszló in this way, which made Frederick III very dissatisfied, in his opinion, the Bohemian throne should belong to the Habsburgs, Georg was neither canonized by Frederick III nor allowed by the Holy See, Frederick III could of course not recognize the promise made by Laszlo.

Indeed, from a very early age, Frederick III was planning for war, and now, the preparations are basically ready, Frederick III wants to snatch the Bohemian crown from Georg and put him on his head, not to mention that Frederick III can be said to be a foundational figure for the Habsburgs, who began to monopolize the throne from Frederick III and gradually grow.

The Royal Palace in Nuremberg, where Frederick III watched the steady stream of knights,

Nuremberg's terrain extends in all directions, located at the node of more than a dozen important trade routes, connecting Eastern and Western Europe, Italy through Germany to Northern Europe, from Krakow to Paris, from Milan, Florence to Berlin, the Hanseatic League, from Constantinople to Antwerp, the Netherlands, extending in all directions, making the city a very important trade node in the Holy Roman Empire, where the crown and sword of the Holy Roman Empire are stored, which is both a free city of the empire and one of the several cities that the emperor toured.

A characteristic of European politics, the political center is always constantly moving, drifting, especially in places with loose political structures, among them, especially in the Holy Roman Empire, the central government is traveling around, while most of the other countries are the central government does not move, but the local government is wandering, with the magistrate as the center, but in this case, the monastery stops in one place, which has two advantages and disadvantages, the wandering political center can effectively save costs, and the judge usually deals with the contradictions in the countryside, The disadvantage is that the control over the local area is greatly weakened, after all, no one is watching, and the prestige of the government is difficult to establish, which is why nationalism is needed, so that the people themselves are concentrated and not by the government, so that they can exert more power,

The monastery will not move if it is built there, so some decrees are usually issued through the monastery, in this way, the monastery has a high prestige in the local area due to its stability, and the long-term contact allows the people to know more about the low-ranking priests of the monastery, the disadvantage is that the cost is higher, land, food, transmission of decrees, and teachings, all of which require costs,

Then some people may ask, why can the church exist in every village what the central government cannot do? Why do people say, "I'd rather have no government than no church"?

Then we have to talk about the economic resources of the government and the church, the government mainly relies on taxes, whether it is agricultural tax or commercial tax, or war tax, and the church is different, the church has a fixed tax - tithe, which can be roughly offset with the government's agricultural tax, the church has land, itself is a large landowner, and this part of the land is basically tax-free in various countries, the church often gets donations from the nobility, and even includes the royal family and royal family of various countries, which the government cannot get, in this way, the church still can't make a balance of payments, So the church began to sell indulgences, and by this means to make a lot of money, no government in any Christian country could compare with the church, and the church was the richest unit in the first place.

To put it a little further, why was the King able to rely on his territories against his princes? In terms of land area alone, the current French king and the princes are basically the same, but the French king controls the church, which makes the French king the only large country in Europe today with an income of more than one million ducats, the Duchy of Burgundy is 900,000 ducats, Constantine due to the years of war, coupled with the nobles' private pockets, Constantinople can receive about 800,000 taxes every year, this figure is about the same as the tax of the Republic of Venice, compare the area of the country controlled by Constantine and the area of the country controlled by the French king, You can see how rich His Holiness really is.

And since the Holy Roman Emperor needs to patrol between several cities, the palace where the emperor settled cannot be left unattended, and in this way, such a special title as the Count of the Palace appeared, and the most classic is the Count of the Palatinate Palace, he is not only the Count of the Palace, but also the Elector, so the popularity is much higher,

At this time, in the Nuremberg Palace, the Holy Roman Emperor Frederick III was receiving Frederick II, Marquis of Brandenburg.

"On this expedition, I am willing to hold the flag for Your Majesty and capture Georg alive."

The Marquis of Brandenburg saluted meticulously, and his tone was full of fighting spirit.

Frederick III smiled slightly, pleased with the performance of the Brandenburg Domain,

"How many soldiers and horses did you bring with you?"

"I have brought five thousand, together with the Duke of Bayreuth and the Duke of Ansbach, a total of about ten thousand, and I am willing to die for Your Majesty."

The Marquis of Brandenburg, the Duke of Bayreuth, and the Duke of Ansbach, all of which were the domains of the Hohenzollern family, but after the death of the previous generation, they were divided into three parts to inherit to his sons, according to the European inheritance system, generally speaking, if there is only one title, then it is the primogeniture system, if there are multiple titles, they will be distributed to the sons, of course, this is not an iron law, in general, there is no one law, basically it depends on the mood of the successor.

"In that case, then this time you will go to the front! If you are successful in the war, I will give you some land from the Pomeranian region. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

In the past, the people who stood at the front of the queue were the brave and warlike Swabians, so that the imperial battle flag was always in the hands of Swabian, but unfortunately the Duchy of Swabia has disintegrated, and those small countries are obviously not enough to support the status of the original Duchy of Swabia.

"Your Majesty, the Count of the Palatinate Palace has returned to raise funds."

Fighting a war is fighting money, no matter how well prepared it is, no one will dislike having more money, and this is also a war tax collected before the war, and the nobles have no way not to pay it.

"Okay, let him in! Marquis of Brandenburg, you have come to meet the Earl of the Palace, you two have not met since your coronation, have you? ”

A short time later, a thin but in good spirits, with a neatly shaved beard, walked in and saluted Frederick III.

"Your Majesty, the fundraising here has been a great success, with a total of more than one million ducats in war taxes and donations, enough for the army to use for a year, here is the list of donors, please take a look."

As he spoke, the Count took out a parchment dossier from his bosom, and Frederick III took it to look at it, and sure enough, the church donated the most, and the nobles of some wealthy regions such as Frankfurt and the Low Countries also donated a lot, and even more so they contributed money and efforts, so they wanted to take this opportunity to cross the class barrier.

"Well, these people are all strong supporters of the Empire, the Empire will not forget them, and when Georg spits out what does not belong to him, everyone will be compensated by the Empire, don't worry, in this regard, the Count also needs to communicate, don't let the Imperial knights chill."

Frederick III immediately made a promise, Bohemia is unfamiliar, Frederick III really needs some of his own nobles to settle down in the local area, to help him better stabilize the local situation, so it is also good to release some news to boost the morale of the army.

"Before the war, I would like to reiterate the imperial ban, that from this day onwards, all trade between Bohemia and the Empire should be terminated, that no goods should be allowed to flow into the Bohemian market, and that the market in Prague should be completely closed."

"I obey your orders, Your Majesty."

The Count of the Palatinate Palace looked very humble and bowed slightly in reply.

Some people died, but not completely......
