How much do you get from the reashearched treasure? Because if you ransomed every city you wouldn't get the 47.5K required, not even close, so you'd need to get a lot from treasure. I'm wondering if I need to go down a level to make it easier or if you get a ton of gold from the treasures.

Spoiler:Not really. Ransoming gives you 200 gold per population point, and at the start of the game there are about 200 non-Viking population points on the map, giving you theoretically 200*200 = 40k gold. Of course, you lose some pop when attacking cities, but the AIs also found new cities and cities grow over time (quite a few size 3 cities are size 5 before you get get a proper army near them and towards the end of the game some cities can be size 10 or larger). You also get some gold for merely conquering a city, regardless of whether you ransom, raze or keep it. And you can get gold for pillaging as well (if you allow cottages to grow to towns you typically get over 100-200 gold for each one, which adds up fast). So you can probably win the game based on war income alone.
On top of that you can get a lot of gold from your own economy if you optimise commerce output (i.e. build lots of economic buildings and cottages). In earlier versions of the scenario I was able to win the game just by turtling. That should no longer be possible, but you can probably still get 10-20k from your own economy (depending on the difficulty level), even while maintaining a sizeable army to raid Europe with and hunt treasure.
So in summary, it should be easily possible to get the required 47.5k gold.
