"BOSS, how about it? What's the price for me?" After the banquet, everyone's teasing came from the team channel.

"You guys are really heartless!" Xu Mo pretended to be angry, but after pausing for a moment, he laughed instead. "Earl Larson is different from me, the heir of the Anderson family. This is a big family with family origins. Before Sweden became independent from Denmark, they were the great nobles of the Swedish Principality, and the family history can be traced back to the Teutonic Knights in the Middle Ages..."

"Teutonic Knights? They don't seem to be Vikings?" The medieval history of the Sea Power era is very similar to the earth's world. As Germans, Max knew very well the composition of the Teutonic Knights.

"Yes, Count Larson's ancestors are indeed not Vikings, but in Sweden so many years, they have merged into the Swedish upper class." Xu Mo said lightly, "In order to help me, my future son-in-law, Count Larson is still willing to invest at a large price."

"Oh? BOSS, what did he give you?" Dinah asked curiously.

"He allocated a private guard of the Larson family for me!" A smile appeared on Xu Mo's face, "There are about 30 members of this guard, all from the retired Swedish Army. They are well-equipped, use muskets and knight scimitars, and have strong combat power."

"Murder team? Isn't it gold coins?" Everyone was surprised. They thought Xu Mo would ask Earl Larson for some financial assistance. After all, do you have to marry a daughter? You have to give a dowry.

"What's the use of asking for gold coins?" Xu Mo was a little amused and crying. "When he arrived in Stockholm, His Majesty Gustav from Sweden will naturally prepare funds and warships for us. Do you want me to take you to the enemy port to grab one!"

"But a musket team of more than 30 people cannot control ships, and their close combat and artillery skills on the ship may not necessarily have the strength of those Viking sailors. How much can they play? It's better to buy more gold coins and buy another armed merchant ship." Dinah asked in confusion. She was different from Serna and others. The beautiful reporter had witnessed those powerful Viking sailors on the Vistalos.

"Haha, if it was on the deck of the ship, this musket team could only deal with thirty to fifty Viking sailors, and they would be crippled in two battles of the platoon. However, I will not use this precious musket team for the platoon battle. They have two functions, and you will know in the future." Xu Mo blinked and said sly.

"Earl Larson is very concerned about you, your future son-in-law, because he is afraid that you will die on the battlefield if you accidentally do not know how to do it!" Dinah's words were filled with a strong jealousy. "Didn't you give you any other help except the guard?"

"The Count is a general. He has given the greatest sincerity to provide a private guard. He can't ask for more!" Xu Mo rolled his eyes helplessly, "However, I received some wealthy businessmen from Uppsala..."

"Oh, are there gold coins?" The surprise voice of business negotiators sounded in the team channel.

"Selna, you, a financial fan, knows you want money!" Xu Mo slapped his forehead, "These wealthy businessmen are not philanthropists, so how could they give me gold coins? As for a little bit of money, I don't like it. These people have big or small chambers of commerce. I use the potential escort rights of the future to ask them to provide me with intelligence support in the chambers of commerce branches of major seaports in the world."

"BOSS, I'm afraid this is your biggest gain tonight!" Serna's eyes lit up.

"Haha, you're right! It's getting late, so let's get off early! We'll rush to Stockholm tomorrow morning..." The talks in the team channel slowly fell down.

...

"Baron Anderson, I'm very happy to see you, please sit down!" When Xu Mo entered a study room in the Swedish palace, unexpectedly, the person who met him was not Gustav II, but a young nobleman in his thirties.

The young man had a harmonious smile, elegant manners, and looked energetic. However, the gorgeous palace dress on him surprised Xu Mo. Through the replica memory, he learned that this seemed to be an official uniform that only the prime minister of the empire could wear.

"Are you... Earl of Alexander?" Xu Mo asked tentatively with a flash of eyes.

"Looking at these piles of documents, I really hope I am not, but unfortunately, I am indeed the unlucky prime minister!" The young imperial prime minister shrugged and said a playful word helplessly, "Sorry, Baron, His Majesty Gustav cannot meet you now. He is in Riga, Poland!"

Looking at the young prime minister in front of him, Xu Mo's eyes added a little respect. The history of Sweden in the era of sea power reflects the earth's world. If Gustav II was Qin Shihuang in Sweden, then the young prime minister in front of him was Li Si. When Gustav II led the new Swedish army to sweep half of Europe, all domestic government affairs were handed over to the Earl of Alexa Oxenzena.

Compared with his age, this young Count showed rare sophistication and diligence in internal affairs. In the modern history of the earth, he was a famous Swedish prime minister and formed a golden partner with Gustav II. If this young prime minister was not available, Gustav II's historical achievements would have been discounted.

"Prime Minister, did you send that letter in your name?" Xu Mo frowned slightly and asked seriously.

"No, that order of conscript was the order of Your Majesty, but the subsequent affairs were handed over to me!" The Prime Minister of the Empire seemed to see Xu Mo's doubts and explained with a smile.

Xu Mo secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although the Prime Minister was also a Swedish real power, if it were not for the conscript order issued by Gustav II himself, he would have received much less support.

"So... what does Your Majesty Gustav need me to do for Sweden?" Xu Mo raised his upper body slightly and looked straight at the young prime minister with bright eyes.

"Haha, Baron, don't be impatient!" The Prime Minister of the Empire raised his palm and pressed down with a smile, "When the other two people come, we will start the negotiations!"

"There are other people?" Xu Mo was slightly stunned.

"It's your two old friends!" The young prime minister showed a mysterious smile.

"Bangbangbang!" While speaking, a knock on the door outside the Prime Minister's study room was heard.

"Please come in!" As the door opened, two tall and heroic young men appeared outside the door.

The person on the left has a rigorous face, meticulous appearance, and holds the hilt of the sword around his waist. In this palace, he still looks alert and does not slacken at all. The person on the right has put his broad admiral suit on his shoulders like a cloak, and naturally has a heroic spirit between the dragon and the tiger steps.

"You guys?" Xu Mo stood up suddenly and looked at his comrades who had met again after a long time.

"Haha, Gehrhart, see who is here!" The heroic young admiral's eyes lit up and turned his head to smile at his companion beside him.

"His Excellency Alfred, I'm glad to see you again!" A smile flashed in Gerhardt's eyes, but he greeted him hard.

"Haha, Alfred, don't pay attention to this German wood. He has been nagging you a lot on the boat!" Hedram stepped forward and gave Xu Mo a strong hug. "Go to drink with us tonight, those kids will definitely be happy to see their storm captain again."

"Ahem!" Seeing the three young men who seemed to have completely forgotten their existence, the Prime Minister of the Empire coughed twice helplessly.

"Haha, my admiral, let's listen to the reprimand of the Imperial Prime Minister first, and then go to the bar!" Xu Mo happily let go of Hedram, regardless of Gerhart's warning eyes, gave him a hug, and then sat down again.

"It's okay, if it weren't for this pile of documents waiting for me, in fact, I would love to drink with you, the refreshing sailors!" The Prime Minister of the Empire made a joke and slowly closed his smile, "Gentlemen, Sweden is now time to need you again..."

...

"Alfred, it seems that Uppsala's noble life has not made you lose the physique of the storm captain!" After leaving the prime minister's office, Hedram punched Xu Mo hard in the chest.

"Upsala is very bored, the sea is my destination!" Xu Mo replied with a smile, "His Majesty Gustav, I should keep staying in the privateer fleet."

"Haha, don't you really understand Your Majesty's intention?" A glimmer flashed in Hedram's eyes, "You are different from us. You are the only one in the Anderson family. Your Majesty asked you to return to Uppsala, just to keep you behind your descendants and serve the empire without distraction. You kid, can't you have no heirs yet, right?"

"Before I came out this time, I decided to have a marriage. The woman was the Larson family of Uppsala!" Xu Mo said with a wry smile.

His replica was restricted by space and could only live in seclusion, and he would never marry and have children. If he had not returned to the era of Haiquan, once Gustav II's conscript order came, the replica would have "dead unexpectedly" and then be recycled by space.

"Fiancée... that is to say, you have no heir yet!" Gerhardt, who was next to him, turned his head and looked at Xu Mo with an expressionless face.

"You kid are really..." Hedram shook his head helplessly, "Maybe I should find the Prime Minister and change our mission!"

"Do you look down on me? Admiral Hedram!" Xu Mo spread his hands helplessly and complained dissatisfiedly.

In the office just now, the Prime Minister of the Empire, Earl of Al-Oxenzena, informed the three of them of Gustav II's decision. With the reform of Gustav II, Sweden has become rapidly becoming stronger in the past few years. In particular, the huge benefits of the North Sea hegemony and whaling ships have given Sweden a powerful privateer fleet in the era of sea power, which is much stronger than the Vasa dynasty on Earth.

As Sweden's national strength increased, Gustav II finally no longer needed to suppress his ambitions. The northern lion planned to use force to continue to expand its territory for Sweden. This time, Gustav II's opponent was a behemoth - the Habsburg dynasty of the Holy Roman Empire.

The dispute between German princes between Protestantism and Catholicism gave the northern lion the best excuse to intervene in religious wars. Gustav II planned to use this war to allow Sweden to enter Central Europe from a remote place in Northern Europe and gain North Germany, which has a large population and fertile land.

However, his opponent, the Habsburgs, not only controlled the entire Holy Roman Empire, but even Philip III of Spain was also a member of the Habsburgs. Gustav II's enemies occupied most of Europe and were powerful.

Gustav II's march route was not through land. The roads along the Baltic Sea were rugged and mostly muddy dirt roads, which was not conducive to the passage of a large army carrying a large number of heavy artillery and materials. Gustav II planned to use sea ships to directly land his army in North Germany.

The mission of Hedram and Gerhart is to cover and defend the Swedish Army's maritime traffic lines, while continuing to control the hegemony of the Baltic and North Seas. And Xu Mo's mission...
