Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

In April, the Guadalville River became turbulent and rapid with the arrival of the spring flood season, mixed with a large amount of sediment brought from the upstream, and the river became turbid and turbulent.

Gonzalo stood on the shore and watched the rolling river twitch his eyebrows tightly. The situation in front of him worried him a lot, or that even if he failed in the initial expedition to Italy and suffered setbacks, he was not as worried as he is now. .

Earlier, when I heard that the Sevillas sent cavalry and seemed to be attacking a Sicilian army that penetrated near the city of Seville, Gonzalo was very happy. He judged that it should be the one that allowed the two parties to cause conflict. The best opportunity, so he sent an army to wait for the opportunity, hoping to catch some oil and water.

But the result made him very disappointed. His troops did wipe out a large number of Seville cavalry. This was a big blow to the already noble coalition of nobles. It was just a big blow to the Sicilians. His behavior surprised him quite a bit. They did not join the battle, nor did they take the opportunity to fight back, but instead let the troops that had crossed the Kovones River retreat to the other side of the river.

The Sicilian Army's actions were beyond the expectation of both parties, and what happened next made Gonzalo unexpected.

A mercenary with a population of more than 10,000 suddenly arrived in Seville. These mercenaries, said to be composed of Catalans, soon became the trump card in the hands of Don Bavi, Andalusian nobles Because of the arrival of these reinforcements, the army's heart was greatly boosted, and it seems that Seville, which was already in hand, has become somewhat difficult to deal with for various reasons.

Although he always gives the impression of being arrogant and arrogant, Gonzalo is not a reckless person, even many times he has experienced more than most people, especially on the battlefield, he is often more than others Early discovery of some clues that other people have not yet noticed, and he was able to quickly grasp the fleeting fleet. It was this keen observation that made him achieve an enviable record in the Italian War, and it was also him His flexible mind made him realize what a great significance it had for the establishment of a new army that was completely different from the army that used to be.

Although he is more willing to show his talents on the battlefield, Gonzalo is not the kind of person who is completely ignorant of the court conspiracy, otherwise he would not rather fall into the infamy and the hatred of Ferdinand, but also dress himself as a daunt Untamed swing soldiers and playboys like bad boys spoiled by Isabella, he just hopes to be able to stay away from the court and devote all his energy to his favorite military technology, but now it seems that the world Things are always unsatisfactory.

Ferdinand sent him an order, in which Ferdinand forced him to take down Sevilla as soon as possible, and at the same time expel the Sicilian from Castile, of course, if possible, the best The result is to simultaneously destroy this invading Sicilian army on the Iberian Peninsula. If this can be used to force the usurped Queen of Sicily to defeat and renounce the throne, it will be more perfect.

This order does not seem harsh. After all, Sicily ’s invading army is not large, and the Castilian army is a local operation, no matter whether it is the strength or the source of the troops, they do n’t have to worry about it. Moreover, they are still known as the model army. The new army of Gonzalo, and the Andalusian noble coalition, from the present situation hardly need to consider their threats.

So Ferdinand's requirements are not high, or can be said to be reasonable, after all, the advantages are in the Castilian side in all aspects.

However, Gonzalo, the highest commander on the front line, was not so optimistic. The sudden intervention of the Sicilian had to reconsider how to arrange his own troops. He did not despise the queen of Sicily, Gonzalo, even though he was not in Italy. But he has been paying attention to the movements on the Italian battlefield. From Siena to San Giraniano, Gonzalo noticed a lot of things that surprised him. These large and small battles made him look at him The Naples army, which was unable to reach, had a new understanding, and the process of conquering Sicily gave him a deeper impression of the bold and meticulous actions of the Queen of Sicily.

When the Sicilian army defended in the middle of the Kovones and Henil rivers, and then faced the Castilians across the Guadalville river, Gonzalo had a strange idea, he thought the queen seemed It was more like deliberately tempting himself to take the initiative to attack her. It was precisely because of this idea that he rejected the request of his generals to attack immediately, but ordered the troops to build fortifications on the north bank of the Guadalville River and wait for opportunities.

And now the situation in Seville has also changed, and the situation on the battlefield has become complicated, but Ferdinand asked him to take the initiative to attack at this time, which made Gonzalo feel as if he was suddenly tied up.

Gonzalo did not like this feeling. He hoped that he would be free on the battlefield. At least the army could be mobilized according to his intention instead of the needs of a small country king far away in Bari Lidod. That would definitely make the battlefield The situation has become very bad.

In addition, he has been staring closely at the Portuguese.

Gonzalo knew that Alexandria was now in Lisbon, and he had never looked down upon that young man, and now even regarded him as his strong enemy.

There is a more important reason why Gonzalo did not immediately attack the Sicilian army. He did not know whether it was Alexander ’s arrangement, but whether it was planned or not, if he was engaged with the Sicilian, then he was likely to Trapped in Andalucia, and the Portuguese are likely to take the opportunity to attack at this time.

Although Gonzalo is not interested in the politics of those courts, this does not mean that he does not have a long-term vision.

The threats made by Portugal and the French to Castile are obvious. At this time, if we rashly engage the Sicilian again, it will likely bring unexpected and dangerous consequences.

"All this is really well planned." Sitting on the other side of the river, Gonzalo threw a stone into the river, listening to the mumbling of the tom, the stone stirred a splash on the riverside, tribute Salou shook his head enviously.

The results of the scout investigation from near the Sicilian camp also made Gonzalo vigilant.

According to the scout report, the Sicilian fortifications on the other side of the Guadavier River were very solidly built, as if to wait for him to take the initiative to attack, not just to guard against his sneak attacks during rest.

"I want to solve everything here?" Gonzalo flashed the thought, and he was faintly excited. This was not to say that he was eager for war, but because of the stimulus generated by the upcoming fierce battle.

He found that he had not felt this way for many years. Although he played with Ottomans with the same advanced weapons in Crete, he did not feel that way at that time.

A strong enemy.

This is Gonzalo's idea of ​​today's Sicilian army, or at least the commander of this army.

Gonzalo beckoned and called a follower in the distance, asking him to take Ferdinand's orders with him, and he was going to read it again.

"I think it ’s a good time to launch an offensive at this time. I ’m doing the final rounds with the Portuguese. Although I do n’t know what the outcome will be, I want to have an answer soon, and at this time, an offensive can be Give the Portuguese a very strong warning. In fact, if you could capture Seville before all this, maybe the situation is different now, but even now it ’s still not too late, just You need to prove yourself with a victory that you work harder for. "

Looking at the wording on the order, Gonzalo smiled, touching his beard under his jaw.

Compared with the past, although this order is still a condescending tone, Gonzalo clearly felt Ferdinand's embarrassment.

Whether the Portuguese will attack at this time is not known, but he can be sure that the negotiations between the two sides will not be so smooth.

This can be seen from Ferdinand's desire to deter the Portuguese by quelling the Andalusian rebellion.

As for Manuel, Gonzalo believes that he is just a fox in the court like Ferdinand, not a jackal on the battlefield, so unless Alexander leads the Portuguese army to attack Castilla, Gonzalo I don't worry about what kind of threats others might pose.

Only in his view this is obviously impossible.

If he did not publicly announce that he was Prince of Castile, perhaps Gonzalo would also worry that the Alexandria would take advantage of his rebellion in the south to send troops from Portugal, but now he certainly will not make such a controversy. Move.

So why did Ferdinand so urgently demand an attack on the Sicilian?

Gonzalo pondered a little, because he didn't know much about the current situation of the court of Barialido, and he couldn't understand Ferdinand's intentions for a moment.

He did not know that if Alexander was here, he could easily guess what Ferdinand wanted to do.

The messengers sent to Vienna have been away for a long time. Ferdinand believes that this time is enough for the emperor to prepare for the mobilization of the army. Perhaps even now the Austrian army has entered northern Italy. After all, because of the belonging of Lombardy and Milan, the Austrians There has been a small army in northern Italy that can be put into battle at any time.

So now the Queen of Sicily has led troops to land in Iberia. This may seem to be an adventure, but once it succeeds, it will definitely reward a rich feat, and it is precisely because of this opposite that the Sicilians are willing to follow their queen.

But what if Italy was attacked by the Austrians at this time?

Even if the Austrian army expedite Naples because of the main force of Naples?

This idea is enough for Ferdinand to eagerly want to drag the Sicilian expedition to Iberia on the peninsula, even if Gonzalo is not ready yet.

"Send someone to cross the river to give the Sicilian a final warning," Gonzalo twisted his beard with his fingers. "Limit them to withdraw their troops within two days, otherwise we will attack."

The followers who heard the order looked at Gonzalo somewhat unexpectedly, and as cronies they certainly knew what was written in the king's letter.

And they also knew that the immediate attack on the Sicilian army was clearly contrary to the Andalusian battle today, and it was precisely because of this Gonzalo that he seemed to be very worried.

But now the general suddenly asked the Sicilians to withdraw their troops, which obviously had a great conflict with the king's intentions.

Seeing the unexpected look on the follower's face, Gonzalo made a "hum" in his nose: "Do you think the Sicilian would withdraw because of my warning?"

"Of course not adults, but why do you still violate the king's order, you did not attack according to the order and still contact the queen," the entourage asked with some concern. "This will make Ferdinand think you and the Sicilian There is collusion. "

"Don't you think that if I follow his orders, it won't arouse his suspicion?" Gonzalo asked ridiculously. "I was listed in those crimes, and I even shipped a large number of treasures from Naples privately. The guilt of famous paintings, but everyone knows who most of those things are packed into their pockets. "

The entourage stood a little anxiously and listened. He knew that his general had an arrogant personality, but he still made the entourage feel terrified in this way.

"I have to let Ferdinand know who he is dealing with, to know that I am loyal to the Queen, but it is not a coward who wants to steal the Castile throne by marriage, so if he wants me to do it for him To serve, you must follow my method. "

After Gonzalo got up from the stone, he stepped forward into the water, letting some cold river water flow into the boot this season, feeling the cold temperature, Gonzalo turned back to his back The men gave orders: "Let the various brigades be prepared, maybe we will soon have a battle to fight."

While the Castilian army was actively preparing for war, the pre-war tensions shone over the Sicilian army barracks on the other side.

The depressed qi feeling can't be relieved even with many intense trainings. Everyone sees the same uneasiness when they meet the eyes of others.

Gonzalo was like a huge shadow over all Naples.

As long as you think that the French army of Charles VIII had easily defeated the Naples army and occupied Naples, but such an incomparable French king, but was beaten by Gonzalo and had to throw the army and escape to France alone, you can imagine How terrible that Gonzalo.

That was in Naples, and now in Castile, in Gonzalo ’s own country.

And his army is also different from that time. At least the Sicilian officers have heard of the model army of Gonzalo.

Ruosha sensed the tension in her hands, but she knew that there was no way to do it. Even even she was vaguely about to face Gonzalo directly.

Especially after receiving Gonzalo's ultimatum, Zuo Sha was insomnia for the first time before the war.

The night of April was still cold, and Ruo Sha walked outside with a thick cloak.

She looked up at the stars in the dark night sky above her head, and suddenly felt an indescribable loneliness and melancholy.

From Bucharest to Sicily, unconsciously, the original Countess of Cosenza became Queen Sicily, and at that time the beautiful and somewhat intelligent and arrogant noble girl also became the military commander of Europe.

All these changes are simply not guessed by the most imaginative people.

So when did all this change?

After Alexander appeared.

When the thought flashed over her, Ruo Sha's lips could not be lifted up slightly.

"There is no one in the world who knows and can help me as much as you do. I can't even imagine what I would do without you."

Thinking of these words in Alexander's letter, Ruosha felt faintly proud.

In the middle of the night before the war, Luo Sha suddenly felt that she seemed to have nothing to do.

Barenti is now the Duchess of the Principality of Romagna-Tuscany, and she should be content.

Lucrecia, she can completely guard her territory of Pisa and the Duke of Florence and become part of the future Alexander empire.

As for Sophia, thinking of her, Ruo Sha couldn't help but shake her head, she would become a wayward Queen of the East, and for a long time in the future she would be driven by ambitions and busy in the disputes in the East away from Western Europe.

Unless Alexander's call, she probably will spend the rest of her life in the Balkans.

The last thing left is only my brother and sister.

Thinking of this, Luo Sha couldn't help laughing, but then was hit by a burst of exhaustion.

The brothers and sisters have worked hard for a few years, and finally managed to reach this stage in the past few years.

After a decisive battle with Gonzalo, after defeating the main force of Castile, the soldiers entered Barrialdod.

This is undoubtedly a crucial battle, and even the victory or defeat of this battle has different meanings from the war being fought in Italy.

Even if it is a defeat in the battle of the Austrian army, there is still room for maneuver, and if necessary, a truce agreement can be concluded with the Austrians.

Of course, it is bound to face all kinds of harsh conditions, but it is not unmanageable.

But in Iberia it is different.

Defeat means completely losing everything before, and those waiting for their siblings are bound to be a miserable end ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ The starry sky above is lonely and cold, the mysterious and dark sky dome seems to appear at any time A terrible vortex trap engulfed the human body and soul together, looking at Lao Sha above his head and could not help but slightly wrap his cloak.

"Brother, where are you now ..."

Ruosha whispered to herself, she felt uncomfortably alone at this moment.

A pair of powerful arms suddenly came from behind, and Ruosha instinctively wanted to pull out the short sword hidden under the waist skirt.

Until I heard a familiar voice whisper in my ear: "I am here, I am here."

In April 1503, Alexander led about 300 Balkan hunting guards from the port of Lisbon, via the Atlantic Ocean at the port of Jerez de la Flote in southern Spain.

Immediately afterwards, the boat was changed to go upstream along the Guadarville River, passing through the city of Seville a few miles from the south of Seville, and entered the Sicilian military camp on April 15.
