After completely rejecting the surrender of Bavaria and Austria. The four armies of the Norman Empire dispatched together. It is very simple to eliminate the last bit of so-called "rebellion". Theresa, the Duchess of Bavaria, fought with fire, and Henry of Bavaria died fighting.
With the death of these last two anti-Norman alliance members. This war that lasted for nearly a year was finally over. The empire gained all the territories of France, Germany and Italy. Completed the conquest of the Europa continent. After the demise of the Frankish Empire, Europe, which had fallen into chaos and warlord rule, finally ushered in unity and peace once again. .
For the newly acquired territories, the emperor divided them into three provinces. He merged the Northern Saxony originally owned by the empire with the two duchies of Hesse and Brandenburg that the empire had just conquered. Named the province of North Germany. Combine southern Switzerland, Swabia and Bavaria. Named the province of South Germany. Union of Austria and Bohemia, named the province of East Germany.
In this way, the Holy Roman Empire, which represented the highest power in medieval Europe, became a thing of the past. His main body, Germany and Northern Italy, was split into four completely different provinces. Then he was swallowed by the Normans. At this point, the war in Europe came to an end. Although the Norman emperor was planning to attack the Eastern Roman Empire. But before that, it would take a certain amount of time to make military preparations and appease the newly conquered territories. The Norman Empire will not move out again until these things are completed.
After wiping out the anti-Norman alliance, the empire also gained another benefit. That is, the political structure of the empire became more complete. All imperial territory was divided into provinces. The three-level administrative division of provinces, counties, and counties implemented by the Norman Empire. Completely implemented.
From north to south, from west to east. The Norman Empire's millions of square kilometers of territory were divided into thirteen provinces. They are the province of England with London as its capital, the province of Flanders with Paris as its capital, the province of South Flanders with Toulouse as its capital, and the province of Scandinavia with Oslo as its capital. , the North German province with Hamburg as its capital, the South German province with Munich as its capital, and the East German province with Vienna as its capital
The province of Lombardy (including Corsica) with Rome as its capital, the Two Sicilies (including Sardinia) with Naples as its capital, the Polish province with Krakow as its capital, and the Rus' with St. Petersburg as its capital Provinces, the Lithuanian province with Vilnius as its capital, the Ukrainian province with Kiev as its capital
In addition, the empire also has two quasi-provinces under construction. They are the West Siberian Province (or Kazan Province), which began to be gradually developed through immigration, and the Egyptian Province, which is located in Egypt and can only actually control half (Upper Egypt fell to Ethiopia).
After completing the division of these provinces, Egil looked at the latest map of the Norman Empire drawn by the system that he had just exchanged. I couldn't help but feel a little intoxicated.
"I, under the age of thirty, have accomplished what the Roman Empire took hundreds of years to accomplish. This kind of greatness cannot be described in words, except for Egils Kalagrimson. This noble name, Apart from noble words, there is no other word to describe it. This world is really, why, why does a great and perfect person like me appear? It is really incredible",
"Of course, all this is not enough. I have other, new plans." In my plan, I should add ** more provinces to my empire. Spain, Hungary, the Balkans, Greece, Asia Minor, Morocco, North Africa, Syria and Palestine Next, I want to unify the entire Mediterranean coast. Only in this way can I truly claim that I surpass the Roman Empire in the traditional sense. That decaying, **, empire that should be swept into the garbage heap of history should not have existed long ago hum"
It took the Normans nearly half a year to consolidate their newly acquired territory. Send officials to gather refugees, enforce laws, and organize security forces. In addition, more time and money will be spent to wipe out the remnants of hostile countries. And the bandits and bandits who took advantage of the situation to cause trouble. In fact, when several new provinces of the Norman Empire were formally established, officials were dispatched and effectively governed, the combined number of bandits and rogues in these places would still exceed 10,000.
However, even so, these things are irrelevant. The emperor ordered his four newly recruited generals to lead troops to attack in these areas. It cannot be said that all the bandits and bandits were eliminated. However, at least they were driven into the deep mountains and forests, and peace was restored on the main roads. That's enough. Under the empire's combined tactics of suppression and appeasement, I believe these guys will make the right decision.
So, on the eve of the New Year¡¯s banquet, Ers, Walter, Farr,Four German generals returned to Krakow. to meet their emperor. And received praise from Egil. The emperor called them his arms and the pillars of the country. And make it a point to have dinner with them. Improved their title. Promoted all four generals to counts and field marshals of the Empire. And give them the privilege of not being punished for ten crimes.
The emperor's generous gesture, as well as his touching speeches and praises, made several generals think - no, he is a marshal now. It made several marshals burst into tears. They repeatedly swore oaths of loyalty to their emperor.
"Okay, let's not say any more polite words. The key to allegiance is to see your actions." Egil said these words with a smile on his face. When the marshals heard what the emperor said, they knew it was time to get down to business. So everyone sat upright and looked at the emperor with eager eyes, hoping to get a better position in the next military operation.
"You have also seen that because of our common struggle, the territory of the empire has grown to this extent, but it is not enough. What I want to see is that in this world, all the territory under the sun belongs to my empire! For this reason, We have to work harder and fight harder! Because of the raging Black Death, other countries have lost a lot of national power. This is the best time for us to take action, launch a war, and seize territory!"
¡°I will swear allegiance to my lord to the death!¡± Several newly promoted marshals shouted excitedly.
Egil nodded with satisfaction, and then began to describe the mission: "First of all, Farr." The emperor looked at the general he recruited first: "I have said before that I want you to lead an army to attack Spain. And the Western Mediterranean Fleet and Atlantic Fleet.
We are all ready to cooperate with you. First, my fleet will sink all the opponent's pitiful, toy-like navy. Then, it comes down to your performance. Whether you want to cross the Pyrenees Mountains or use the power of the navy to land and fight, it's up to you. I want you to conquer the entire Iberian Peninsula in the shortest possible time! "
"No problem at all, my lord, my subordinates will do their best to dedicate the Iberian Peninsula to you!" Marshal Fall stood up and saluted. Then he said this.
"Very good." Egil nodded again, and then looked at Marshal Winde: "Then you, Winde. The task I give you is to develop the Western Siberian Province. There are tens of thousands of border guards in the Ross Province now. All join your command. I want you to conquer all the nomadic tribes in the lower Volga area as soon as possible. Expand the territory of the empire to the Ural Mountains and Caucasus Mountains, as far as the Caspian Sea. I want you to conquer the Ural Mountains and The Caucasus Mountains become the city wall of the empire, and the Caspian Sea becomes the moat of the empire! Do you understand?!"
"Yes, Lord! I will integrate those nomads as soon as possible! And build the strongest defense system for the empire!" Marshal Wende also responded excitedly.
"Well, very good. And remember, I have a premonition that in the near future, the empire will once again start a war with the nomads coming from the east. If they don't come, it will be up to us to attack them. Okay! And whether it's offense or defense, you will bear the brunt!"
"I will make all preparations, Lord!" Marshal Wende also nodded in agreement.
"Then, next, Ess. The task I give you is in Egypt." Egil then named Marshal Ess: "This task is very difficult. I think only you can complete it. The Suez Canal is the most suitable for the empire." The importance is self-evident. You must defend the Egyptian cities at all costs and ensure the security of Lower Egypt, especially the Suez Canal. The Eastern Mediterranean Fleet will help you."
"Yes, my lord. As long as I am here, Lower Egypt will not give up an inch of land." Marshal Ers said in a hoarse voice.
"You have to face attacks from three sides. Ethiopia in the south, Mongols in the east, and Moors in the west. I estimate that their combined strength is likely to exceed 100,000. You must be very careful. .¡±
"I understand, my lord." Marshal Ers saluted again.
"Finally, it's you, Walter." Emperor Egil said at the end: "The order I give you is the freest, and in a sense, the most difficult. I want you to lead the army to the New World."
"Yes, that's no problem at all. Lord." General Walter nodded in agreement, and then asked: "So, what should I do in the New World?"
"Everything that is beneficial to the empire can be done." The emperor's words made General Walter even more confused.
"Create colonies, attack the local indigenous people, plunder the local wealthand, you are unfamiliar with the place there. But what you have to face is a huge army like the Aztecs.??Empire. So one thing must be remembered. Use the indigenous people against the indigenous people. Use your affinity, got it? ¡± (To be continued)
