Conquer the Dawn of Heaven
Vol 7 Chapter 162: The destiny of celebrities
Gonzalo looked gloomy at the letter in his hand. He didn't expect to receive bad news that disturbed him early this morning.
A doctor next to Isabella secretly wrote to Gonzalo and reported to him about the Queen's recent illness.
The matter seemed terrible, just a few days ago the queen fainted again, and the letter recorded some descriptions of Isabella's condition at the time.
"The feces are diluted and cannot be condensed like muddy water. This is not the first time. It makes people worry that your majesty may be in danger because of non-stop diarrhea ..."
Looking at the letter, Gonzalo looked dull into the city of Burgos in the distance.
Gonzalo Cordova was an arrogant and defiant person. Before he was 20 years old, he was a scourge in his hometown. Fighting and fighting are commonplace. Sometimes, he and some fox friends are arrogant and arrogant, and even just for fun. It's not uncommon to rob robblers.
Such a person will often only become a tyrant in his territory in the future, except for the brutal rule and the taxation of the squeezing of the people, there will be no profit.
But Isabella saw something valuable from Gonzalo's rebelliousness, that is, the man's perseverance under the impulse of the status quo.
Not long after he was sent to the court to receive "re-education", Isabella began to reuse the young nobleman who was considered by many to be a bad nature.
And Gonzalo did not disappoint Isabella. In the following two decades, he became a famous player in Iberia by virtue of the great achievements he made on the battlefield, and became a pinned by Isabella. Highly effective man.
Isabella's trust in Gonzalo is enviable. She allows him to train and even adapt his army with her own mind, and at the same time gives peace of mind to the hands of him.
This kind of trust is not available to others, and in return, Gonzalo almost put the smile on the queen only before the belief in God and everything else.
Even in the face of Ferdinand, Gonzalo is always false, which makes his relationship with Ferdinand very tense. If there is no Isabella mediation, both regard their dignity as The inviolable person may have long regarded it as incompatible with fire and water.
It was only when Isabella was alive that these contradictions were naturally covered up under the majesty of the Queen, but now Isabella's condition is getting worse, which makes Gonzalo start to worry.
Gonzalo was obsessed with the battlefield, but that did n’t mean he did n’t care about what happened in the court. He knew better than anyone that Isabella was his biggest backing, but now this backing seems to be unreliable. .
Gonzalo was very worried about the Queen's condition, but he knew he could not return to Barrialdo at this time.
The general holding the heavy soldier suddenly returned to the capital when the king was seriously ill, which was intolerable for any heir to the monarch.
Even though Isabella ’s heir is Juana, Ferdinand, who will be the regent in the future, is also unlikely to allow this to happen.
Even Gonzalo secretly speculated whether it was Isabella's idea to send him alone to the north at this time to fight the French.
And what makes him care is that he is not commanding the training of himself, and he is regarded as a trusted new army.
Thinking about Gonzalo now, I suspect that there may be a reason for Ferdinand, but the war situation in the north does need a person who can deter the two enemies of France and Portugal to deal with them. This makes Gonzalo have to work hard to Go to the northern battlefield.
The doctor ’s letter about the Queen ’s condition certainly made Gonzalo worried, but another worse situation made him feel quite depressed this morning.
The southern rebellion, where negotiations had been smooth, had an accident, and the Andalusian nobles who agreed to and opposed the negotiations with Bariaridod had serious differences because of different opinions.
This disagreement eventually led to the division of the Andalusian rebels, the nobles who agreed to the negotiations occupied Seville, and the opposition entrenched in the Guadalala Fort not far from Seville.
This was originally a good thing for Bariari Dodd, but Don Bavi, who was already at a disadvantage, cunningly used the division of the southern nobility.
While showing a posture of genuine peace talks, he sent people to actively contact Bariari Dodd, but at the same time strongly supported the obviously disadvantaged opposition, he sent a large number of troops and large sums of money to support melons. Dara Fort, while negotiating with Bariari Dodd, his cronies under the banner of the opposition frequently dispatched in Andalusia to attack the king.
Gonzalo's forces had to delay the time for reinforcements north, which was obviously a very bad result for Gonzalo.
Regardless of whether the French were eventually driven away, Gonzalo was now more concerned about whether his troops could rush to the north as soon as possible.
Gonzalo vaguely had a bad hunch, which was so different from the almost inflated confidence that he vowed that he could not fall as long as the queen was alive a few months ago, and even looked at the seal in his hand. Believe, he felt for a while that it seemed to have been a long time ago.
Gonzalo is still very confident about taking the city of Burgess, and from the perspective of the troops sent by the French, they are more of a response to the Portuguese than to occupy the land of Castilla.
However, the Portuguese have just retracted to the west bank of the Coa River due to the fiasco of the recent defeat. It is believed that Manuel has no courage to initiate the war for at least a period of time.
Then the next thing to deal with is mainly Burgess City and the French army that has penetrated into the Galicia region in northwestern Castilla.
Like other Iberian cities, the Burgos city left Iberia with a large and unusually strong castle, and the defense of Burgos was also very strong, because it led to the north. The traffic route of Navarra, there are various large and small sills near Burgos, and the fortifications. These dotted fortifications form a rather strong defense system with the main city of Burgos. Gonzalo caused some trouble.
The French retreated to Burgos after the defeat, which made Gonzalo unable to capture the city immediately, and compared to the French in Borgos, he was more concerned about the depth. French army of Galicia.
The inextricable relationship between the Galicians and the Portuguese, the son-in-law of the Portuguese earl Henry, and later the founding monarch of Portugal, Alfonso I, tried to incorporate Galicia into the Portuguese territory when he founded the country. The strong opposition of King Alfonso VI of Castile, and then under the mediation of the Holy See, Alfonso I had to give up his appeal to Galicia.
However, this also planted the seeds for later disputes between the two countries. Many Galician nobles and Portuguese secretly negotiated songs. If not the center of power of Castile has been in the north, the powerful monarchy has caused great pressure on the northwest. Perhaps there has already been rebellion in this area.
But now it ’s different. The French ’s intervention plunged Castilla ’s north into war. At the same time, the Portuguese could not take the opportunity to incite the dissatisfaction of the Galicians. This is really a good opportunity for them, even before the departure. Shabella also dragged her weak body to summon Gonzalo and repeatedly told him to watch out for the situation in the northwest.
This is why Gonzalo is not in a hurry to attack Burgess. He must first grasp the movement of the French army in the Galicia region before he can determine whether to destroy the French army in Burgess City regardless of everything.
After all, once the battle is in full swing, it is impossible to arbitrarily decide whether to stop the battle. His troops will be firmly attracted to Burgess, and at this time the French activities in Galicia become the key.
When he first came to the north, Gonzalo sent a lot of people to inquire about Galicia. Some of these people came back, and some still have no news so far.
However, he only learned from those who came back that the French army started to loot locally after entering Galicia. At the same time, the Portuguese also sent a small scale to Galicia, but it was quite influential. Army.
Gonzalo is now waiting. He is waiting for more detailed information about the Northwest. After all, if he sends troops to Galicia, he is likely to face not only the "French-Portuguese Allied Forces", but also the local nobles.
If so, it is not much different from fighting in an enemy country.
Fighting on the enemy's territory is not so optimistic with the current army.
Gonzalo was dull. He had to face not only the enemies on the battlefield, but also to guard against secret calculations from behind. The contradiction between him and Ferdinand could not be resolved at all.
Gonzalo couldn't help feeling annoyed for as long as he thought about the day when the Queen was not alive, and what was waiting for him.
Gonzalo is not afraid of being hurt and retaliated against by Ferdinand. With his prestige, Ferdinand would be too stupid if he did it too obviously.
But as long as one day had to think about the Aragonese who bowed and bowed, Gonzalo had the urge to destroy everything.
For Juana, Gonzalo didn't actually have much thought. In his eyes, Juana was a spoiled little girl, although he didn't hate her rudeness and even hysterics like other people, but this also Just because she is Isabella's daughter.
Gonzalo is only loyal to Isabella, she is his queen, his confidant, he is the most trustworthy person.
As for other people, no matter who wears the crown of Castile, he or she is just a monarch who makes him do his duty.
A cold wind blew, and Gonzalo stretched the collar of his cloak, stroking this valuable cloak on his body, a bit of bitterness floating on his face.
Arrogant and arrogant, arrogant and arrogant, this is the impression of many people on Gonzalo.
In the eyes of many people, Gonzalo Cordova is a very polite knight most of the time, but sometimes it is unreasonably unbearable asshole.
A cloak worth hundreds of florins is an extravagant luxury for anyone, but Gonzalo did not hesitate to purchase such a thing for himself, even the king is too luxurious Of the line.
This made him highly criticized, and many people even accused him of embezzling a large amount of loot when he occupied Naples.
Faced with such accusations, Gonzalo was still doing his own thing, and what made people feel unbelievable was that Isabella had not rebuked him even once.
Did the queen indulge him only because of blind trust?
Gonzalo sighed secretly, knowing that the Queen must be very clear about why he did this.
It is impossible for a greedy, arrogant and arrogant person to accomplish anything, and Gonzalo is now playing such a nasty guy.
Because he knew him well, even if he did more absurd things, Isabella did not punish him.
And his pretentiousness was never intended for the queen.
But, does all of this make sense now?
Looking at the Queen's condition in the letter, Gonzalo's heart was very heavy.
A scout drove the horse from afar, and the splashes of mud that the horseshoe stepped on the ground were like waves breaking on the water.
Gonzalo immediately stood up and waved to the scout who ran in the distance.
"Sir, letter from Galicia."
The scout rushed in front of him and quickly took out a bundle of tightly bound letters from his carry-on bag. Gonzalo immediately took it in, pulling away the tied string, and Gonzalo quickly watched those coming from Galicia Intelligence.
After entering Galicia, the French army looted a lot along the way and immediately went on the road. Their purpose was to merge with the Portuguese in Galicia.
Despite guessing this possibility, Gonzalo felt the troubles once proved.
Gonzalo knew exactly what Isabella was really worried about in the war in the north. The invasion of Portugal and the French did not actually make Isabella feel much crisis, but the situation in Galicia made her worried.
Isabella had always hoped to be able to regain power from the nobility, but this road was not smooth. Even with the prestige brought by the movement to regain the lost ground, there was still great resistance.
At this time, a war seems to be the only good way to break the deadlock.
War destroys the old order, and new rules emerge at the historic moment.
Gonzalo knows what Isabella wants him to do, and when he thinks about it, only he is best suited to do such a thing.
Gonzalo glanced again in the direction of Burgess. He knew that the Frenchman there should be waiting for him to attack the city with fear and fear. Although the walls of Burgess were strong, Gonzalo believed that as long as he was given time, Can capture this city.
But now that he has new plans, the French move in Galicia must be stopped, and this is also a good opportunity to re-establish the new order in northwestern Castilla.
Gonzalo then ordered to evacuate Burgess.
His order caused great repercussions. The officers and the local nobles who were hoping to expel the French quickly hurried to Gonzalo. They could not understand why they left Burgos at this time. When they heard that they wanted When marching towards Galicia, the look of many officers became hesitant.
Just as the Catalan mercenaries of Aragon are known to the European continent, as the last descendants of the Visigoth dynasty on the Iberian Peninsula, the Galicians inherited the brutality and brutality of the ancient Goths. They were Cass The most famous warrior of the Kingdom of Tiriya, but also the first choice for recruiting guards of past kings.
It was only with the intricate relationship between Portugal and Galicia that caused all kinds of fears in the royal family that the Galician warriors gradually fell out of favor in the Castilian court.
But the brave and sturdy style of the Galicians is impressive. At this time, when they heard that they were going to enter Galicia, the officers couldn't help but worry about the upcoming future.
"The new army should still be transferred to the north as soon as possible." Gonzalo thought secretly. He knew that these officers' concerns were not unreasonable. If the Galicians really participated in the rebellion, then they are likely to be trapped again. In the vast sea like Andalusia.
However, unlike Andalucía, Galicia does not have developed water transportation and rich land that can provide food, so for the relatively barren Galicia, if they want to participate in the rebellion, unless they are supported from Portugal or the French, Otherwise, it is difficult to persevere.
This gave Gonzalo a rough plan. He intended to use a "Gonzalo-style" deterrence to intimidate the local aristocracy.
Gonzalo believes that as long as the locals understand the terrible consequences of Hu Lai, it should be able to eliminate a possible rebellion.
As for Burgos, Gonzalo did not give up this northern city.
He intends to first cut off the connection between the French and the Portuguese, while besieging Burgess with a force, and then waiting for his new army to go north for reinforcements.
This plan may be very risky if it was before, after all, it means that he must divide the troops into three different parts, and confront three enemies in two directions in the northwest.
But the previous victory over the Portuguese on the east bank of the Coa River relieved him a lot of pressure, and the unique terrain of the Coa River also ensured that he only needed a small number of troops ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ to keep those A ferry that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
"God is on my side." Gonzalo said to the chaplain following the prayer. Although he was severely reprimanded by the chaplain, he just laughed but did not regret it.
Gonzalo would say this naturally because of his reasons. If the Portuguese did not rush to attack first and lead to bleakness, then the situation may be different now.
"I'm optimistic about Burgess. She's the girl I like, but now let her be aggrieved in the arms of the French," Gonzalo told the general who stayed and besieged Burgess. "The French will not leave the city for the time being. Any trouble for you, so all you have to do is stare at them firmly and wait for my new army to arrive. "
After Gonzalo commanded, he ordered the army to prepare for departure as soon as possible. Time was urgent for him. Both Isabella's condition and the situation in Galicia urged him to act as soon as possible.
But what Gonzalo did not expect was that just before he set off, the arrival of a lame man slipping out of the city of Burgess interrupted his plan.
