Sweden AAR, I Part:
In a quiet but cold morning in the frozen north, the members of the Unionsrad were in the royal Castle of Stockholm dicussing important matters that would affect greatly the economy of Sweden, a new Taxation system had been created, but the members were uncertain about how would it work. After a long discussion it was decided that the system was flawless and that it would be implemented all along the nation, of course this would create a void in the Swedish treasure, but at the long run this would prove convenient.
With a part of the remaining money a gift was sent to the Crown of Norway, expecting to improve relations to ensure Norwegian support in the forthcoming campaign. A plan had been presented to the Unionsrad from part of some Swedish generals, the plan offered an attack to Novgorod, now, a weakenned Novgorod, Sweden counted with support from Muscovy in the campaign. The plan was approved but war would start only when Novgorod was at war with Muscovy, the nation must avoid to lose people in a war.
On April 5th of 1420 agressions started between Muscovy and Novgorod, it was the perfect time to strike.
The 7th war was declared to Novgorod, counting with full support from part of our allies the Army of Finland (6,000 Inf, 4,000 Cav) mobilized to take Savolaks, while the Army of Sweden (10,000 Inf, 5,000 Cav) was being loaded into the Swedish Navy, with Ingermaland as destiny. 1 month before war was declared a Reserve Army was created, counting with 7,000 Infantry and 3,000 Cavalry, this Army had as objective to capture the colonies of Kola and Karelia and then move to face the Army of Novgorod, wich counted with 20,000 man ( I know it seems like a suicide, even for me).
But the operations turned to be a succes, Ingermaland and Savolaks surrendered to Sweden, and the Reserve Army killed 10,000 man in a battle that will be mentioned for a long time, Kexholm fell after a long siege. And Muscovy had conquered already the capital, Novgorod, Archanhelsk and Olonets, this was a great victory for Sweden, Novgorod offered Sweden the cities of Kola, Karelia, Savolask and Kexholm and 100 ducats, this was accepted of course.
