Chapter 1936: No Connivance Listening to Hurd's words, Zhu Houzhao nodded.
Now Zhu Houzhao already knows some of the history of the Franco.
Speaking of which, it's really true, my Emperor Taizu fought to the death, killed Chen Youliang, killed Zhang Shicheng, and beat the Northern Yuan, which led to the Ming Dynasty, but this Habsburg family, specially, inherited Spain, the Two Sicilies, Naples, and countless territories for nothing.
The great thing about this family is that there is no one in the entire Franco who is not his relative, and the men in the family all choose those women who have the right to inherit.
Thinking that he was desperate, staring at the map for half his life, and thinking about how to expand the territory, Zhu Houzhao had a feeling that a mouthful of old blood was almost spurting out.
Zhu Houzhao calmed down, and then said: "What do his parents mean after all, it is the words of the matchmaker of his parents, and this rule can't be messed up." ” Hurd said with a smile: "The minister said earlier, she lost her mother since she was a child, her father is now the regent of Spain, in view of her sister because of mental problems, she has deposed the queen, I believe that it will not be long before she can inherit the throne, and at the same time, because her father is the son of the Duke of Austria, therefore, if she can get the support of His Majesty, there is great hope for inheriting the Duke of Austria, and Austria has always been the old Holy Roman Emperor, once Your Majesty is united with her, then the Electors of Germany, Inevitably, will be subjugated to His Majesty. ” After a pause, Hurd said firmly: "They don't dare not choose Your Majesty." ” "You still need to choose" Zhu Houzhao sneered, if they didn't choose me, I would sweep away these German princes.
Hurd continued: "The Spanish regent is the heir of the pseudo-Holy Roman Emperor that His Majesty defeated, the Holy Roman Emperor has collapsed, the Habsburgs are very worried about this, and the Spanish King is also afraid of war with His Majesty's Great Ming Naval Division in the Spanish fleet, and the Austrian Double-Headed Eagle family has always disliked to solve problems through war, they prefer to solve problems through marriage, so they try their best to promote this marriage. ” Zhu Houzhao understood that the HRE had collapsed, and the Spanish regent also felt precarious, especially the regent from Austria, who was not very harmonious with the local Spanish nobles, and was able to control the national affairs of Spain, not only from the title of the husband of the late Queen Isabel, but also because of the strong support of the Busburg family of the Holy Roman Empire, and now, the HRE is dead, and the Busburg family is now under the iron hooves of Zhu Houzhao, and his position has begun to be unstable.
Because of this, he urgently needs to get Zhu Houzhao's support through marriage.
For him, the newly rising Holy Roman Emperor, though of a foreign race, had now embarked on a crusade that had gained great legitimacy, and had proved to be powerful enough to secure the regent's position in Spain.
And in exchange, it is reasonable for the first heir of the Austrian regent to marry Zhu Houzhao.
As for the Habs in Austria, it is clear that they are also in danger, and they have always maintained their noble position in Francois through marriage, and if they can arrange this marriage, it will obviously be beneficial to their present disadvantageous position.
In fact, for them, it really doesn't matter who they marry, and the most important thing is whether they can maintain their own interests.
Zhu Houzhao was quite satisfied, and said without hesitation: "This matter will be handed over to you to continue to negotiate, and as for this wedding date, you will talk to them after discussing it." ” Hurd smiled and said: "However, there are some small troubles, the French seem to have always wanted to make trouble with this marriage, they have always been not in harmony with the Habsburgs, Your Majesty, you see, should we find a way to appease them" Zhu Houzhao knew that when he arrived at Franco, the main axis of the entire Francophone continent was that France was surrounded by the entire Habsburg family.
To the south, Habsburg-controlled Italy, to the west, Spain, and to the east, the HRE Emperor, who had been elected by the Electors.
It is said that before, the regent of Spain had already intended to marry the princess Catherine to the king of England, which was obviously also intended to besiege France.
But no one expected Zhu Houzhao to come, and his arrival broke this balance.
Of course, history, after France fell into this embattlement, it did not hesitate to collude with the Ottomans and establish an alliance with foreign races.
It can be seen from this that these Franco-monarchs only think of their own interests, and in order to consolidate their rule, they will do anything.
Zhu Houzhao squinted, revealing a deep expression, and said: "Don't pay attention to him, I am the king of Franco, whether he is happy or unhappy, if he dares to take the lead, I will punish him for the nine clans, if he can be interesting, it will be fine." ” Zhu Houzhao has his own criteria for dealing with this kind of monarch's complaints, and he will never condone it.
It's not that he doesn't want to use Huairou's means, but since he was a child, he has learned the art of the emperor, although this level, placed in the Ming Dynasty, must be worrying, but here, it is quite like a fish in water.
Zhu Houzhao knew very well that in order to deter these monarchs, the best way now is to create a sense of tension for them, and only when they are nervous and anxious, they will scramble to bribe themselves.
Zhu Houzhao held his chin and set his eyes on the map, if it is said that getting married is just a political means to recover these Francois people, then at the moment, how to attack Istanbul is the most important.
The Ottomans fought in a way that he probably already knew, and now he was in Franco, and he could mobilize 300,000 military horses.
But he knew very well that except for the sailor, the rest of the people had their own ghosts.
This kind of improvised coalition is actually okay to expect them to fight a tailwind battle, but once there is a headwind, they may kill each other, or everyone will rush to get out of the way.
And the Ottoman Empire is indeed strong, if the country fights, the army that can be mobilized, there will be fifty or sixty people, this does not include a large number of auxiliary troops have been people, if they are added together, the number will reach one million, the most important thing is that the Ottomans fight all year round, most of the army is well-trained, and it is by no means a group of weak chickens that are about to collapse. aa2705221:
