Warlock Royal Family

() While Ladislaus was cleaning up the city of Augsburg and trying his best to attract investment, more and more intelligence was gathered in Augsburg from all directions. Everyone other than Dislaus also clarified.

Most of the pastors of Suni have lost control of the rebel army. Although "Zi You Love Long Live" and "Arranged Marriage to Die" have controlled several rebel armies with thousands of people. Under the order, they had reluctantly gathered together and even defeated the troops of the Archbishop of Trier, and surrounded the dignified religious elector in the castle.

There are countless other Cyric religious princes who were destroyed by them.

However, it is clear that Sune's divine power is limited, and it is impossible for her to exercise costly direct control by issuing oracles for a long time. Destroyed by the allied forces of Zetze and Baden.

The religious elector who believed in Cyric saved his life with the support of his followers. The electors of the three major religions finally managed to keep their castles under the coordination of the special envoy of the Roman Church.

But other minor religious princes could not survive. The castles of several dignified archbishops were conquered. Some were lucky enough to escape after paying a huge ransom, and those who were unlucky were naturally executed.

Then these religious territories were either liberated by the Saxon or Brandenburg Army that happened to feel, or they were directly occupied by the rebel army controlled by Pastor Benn.

Ms. Firehair's efforts destroyed the original Dark Rik rule, but most of the results fell into the hands of the black hand Bane.

The uprising increasingly became a tool for Bane to expand his influence.The support of the Electors of Saxony and Brandenburg for Martin Luther and Bann is being rewarded, and of course the orthodoxy of Anri has not yet collapsed.Therefore, only a few extremely small religious territories directly announced their annexation, and in most cases a roundabout method was adopted.

Some members of the Witting and Hohenzollern families claimed to be supported and requested by the people, declared themselves bishops or archbishops, and then began to take over these religious territories that had lost their old masters.

Bane's church only asks for tithes, as a support for the electors, it does not intervene in the actual rule and does not require sovereignty. These territories have been incorporated into the electorate from the administrative system.

The legality of these territorial changes requires another round of wrestling.

As the monarch of Austria with a special status in the Holy Roman Empire, Ladislaus' attitude is also crucial. Although he wanted to intervene, Ladislaus still restrained his desire.

This power is insufficient.The symbolism is very strong, and it is better not to steal the limelight from His Majesty Ferdinand. After all, although he is far away in Madrid, he is a legitimate emperor of the empire.

Of course, Ladislaus' attitude is also crucial to His Majesty Ferdinand, so Ladislaus can still expect certain benefits from all parties.

However, before the offers from these bigwigs arrived, an insurgent army fleeing from the Saxony region approached Ladislaus first.

The leader of this rebel army was a self-awakened priest of Barbarossa named Thomas Münzer.

When he saw the legendary Lord Habsburg with his own eyes, he was so excited that tears filled his eyes, in order to receive this fanatic.Ladislaus deliberately changed into the uniform of an Austrian general, instead of the uniform of a Roman cardinal.

"The warlock royal family, I saw a warlock royal family with my own eyes, and I will die without regret." Facing Ladislaus, the priest of Minzel couldn't help himself with excitement. "Please take a look, this is the program I got in a dream."

It was this program that led Ladislaus to decide to personally interview a man officially recognized as a traitor, at great political risk.

Just like what I said at the beginning of the introduction of the fate of the uprising.Some of the rebels were actually dissatisfied with the great nobles and the Roman Church. Their slogan during the uprising was to ask for grace, to ask for the emperor's grace. They believed that the emperor was good, but they were deceived by the people below.

They demanded the abolition of all lords.Only the authority of the emperor is recognized.

The content of this program that impressed Ladislaus is as follows: abolish all alliances of the princes, and only the emperor is responsible for the protection of all places.All religious miscellaneous taxes other than the tithe tax were abolished, and priests and bishops in various places were appointed by the emperor after being elected by the people.

That is to say, establish a centralized monarchy.

To this end, the program further stipulated that, except for the "emperor's tax", all customs duties, miscellaneous taxes and taxes required by the princes should be cancelled, laws, currency systems and weights and measures should be unified, the separation of administration and education should be implemented, and land rent should be cancelled.

Moreover, their demands have a certain limit. Pay attention to treating enemies differently, compensation will be given to the nobles, and the property confiscated from the church will be given to those nobles who are willing to accept peace.

In the final analysis, it is necessary to use a method similar to modern redemption, that is, a method that is beneficial to the nobility, and change the feudal land ownership system into a bourgeois land ownership system.

And it is obvious that the spearhead of this uprising is directed at the Holy See, which is objectively extremely beneficial to the unification of Germany.

Such a program is not very beneficial to His Majesty Ferdinand, who needs to maintain a vast territory, because he cannot fully accept this requirement. On the one hand, during the reconquest process, the Church of Cyric strongly supported the former king of Spain, so in the political territory of the Kingdom of Spain The middle weight is huge, and more importantly, on the one hand, this kind of nationalism will make the bureaucrats and bishops sent by Spanish origin to other ethnic areas unable to survive at all, which threatens the foundation of his rule.

For Ladislaus, who is mostly German-speaking residents in the territory, this is simply [-] cents for his own dry food. Although he values ​​​​the taxes of Milan and Friuli, since the Austrian army is basically composed of Germans , then he can accept this German nationalist.

For the simple peasants who hold such loyal and patriotic ideas, Ladislaus must of course receive him cordially.

These farmers and low-level priests only have an intuitive feeling for the current situation of the Holy Roman Empire, and do not know the situation of the neighboring countries at the same time.They miss the history passed down by word of mouth, the honor of conquering foreign countries in the heyday of the Hohenstaufen family.I am very disappointed that my motherland has become a battlefield.

In fact, the problem facing the Habsburg family within the Holy Roman Empire was not being "blinded", but the great nobles openly confronting the imperial family, whose imperial power had been destroyed in the Hohenstauffen era.

In fact, this fragmented country should have been destroyed by centralized neighboring countries like France or Poland long ago.

It was just because when it was at its weakest, France was pinned down by England in the Hundred Years' War, and Poland was pinned down by the Teutonic Knights in the Northern Crusades. During the most dangerous period of the empire, perhaps the God of God accidentally favored the people from The Habsburgs of the Swiss mountains.So things have changed again.

The reason why the current Holy Roman Empire not only survived, but still looks majestic, is only because of the unexpected and firm ally Spain brought by the royal marriage, and Spain is in its heyday, and those glory and prestige are only Spain. Just a reflection of the empire.

Although the Habsburg family had held the position of emperor for several generations before obtaining the Spanish throne, Austria was essentially just a super prince, and it was only because of the marriage that it obtained the Spanish throne, one of the top powers today, that it was extremely powerful and worthy. On the throne of the emperor from Charlemagne.

This is to abolish the great princes.The rebel army with the slogan of establishing a centralized state basically concentrated on the two electoral states of Saxony and Brandenburg, where the nobles oppressed the most.

In the beginning, they revolted under the instigation of Pastor Benn and successfully captured many castles. They didn't know that they actually helped the big princes they wanted to oppose.

After several peasant leaders formed the program that represented the direction of nationalism, Priest Benn, who was loyal to the Elector of Saxony, and Priest Barbarossa, who was naturally awakened, fought fiercely for leadership. The chaotic rebel army of course Unable to deal with the elector's army, the rebel army, which once numbered up to [-], was destroyed by the Saxon and Brandenburg troops.

Along with the rebel army, some knight territories and free cities that were originally owned by the rebels were also destroyed, and they all fell into the control of the big princes.

Counting the old, weak, sick and disabled, the number of people who fled to the central and southern regions was less than 1.Although the leading priest, Thomas Münzer, had received the divine spell, he had no idea where his organization was until they fled all the way south and met Priest Barbarossa based in Augsburg, namely Most cordially Mr. Odd Kessler.Because of this credit, he has been able to use seventh-level divine magic, and has become No.[-] in the Church of Barbarossa.

For these, they were abandoned after being used by the Saxony elector.Then they fled to the rebel army nearby, and Ladislaus gave them a bite to eat, and announced that the warlock royal family would not ignore them, would protect them with all their strength, and settle them properly.

Sarzastan has just quelled the uprising in the Württemberg region. The Württemberg region, which has been plagued by wars for many years, is now empty, and it is not a problem to resettle a few thousand people there.

Although there are men, women, old and young among the people who can escape here, the proportion of young and middle-aged men is very high. Although the gender imbalance will bring certain social problems, it is cruel to say that there is no burden on the old and the weak is not good for the recovery of the economy. Bad thing, Ladislaus' hands were clean in this matter anyway.

And they were lucky enough to meet Ladislaus, and they even had the hope of becoming yeoman.

There is another difference between the uprising in the Württemberg area and other areas, that is, the former ruler, the Duke of Württemberg, took hundreds of Swiss mercenaries to take advantage of the chaos to restore the rule here, and many local nobles support him.

After Sazhastan destroyed the Restoration, a large amount of land was confiscated, and this time not many people would be willing to buy these areas that had been ravaged several times in a few years, and Ladislaus desperately needed farmers to cultivate these lands.

At the same time, they also hope to obtain land ownership, of course not for free. The good thing that they can obtain ownership after cultivating the land for a few years can only belong to the rapidly expanding empire.

They can't become soldiers for the time being, but they still have to be reclamation soldiers, that is, mobilized soldiers.

Ladislaus will establish a military settlement on unowned land in the Württemberg area. After farming for Austria for 20 years or dying in a battle, the land will belong to the reclamation soldier or his heirs.
