Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Another heavy snowfall came in Rome. This snow was bigger than the one before the winter. Looking at the snowflakes floating in the window, Alexander rolled the thick blanket over him and looked at the lazy cat As Sophia turned her head to his arms, Alexander couldn't help smiling. (Biqiwu's Pinyin)

I never imagined that the always lively Sophia became lazy after entering the winter, especially as the weather became colder, she began to collect all kinds of food like a winter squirrel, then she curled up Like a large cat, he squeezed himself in Alexander's arms and would never leave again.

Even at night, she ran across the door in the room between the two and ran to Alexander's bed next to him, warming herself with his body.

The result of this was that Alexander had to spend a lot of effort in the morning to struggle to get out of bed, and he was blind for the whole day.

Sophia apparently didn't know how great she was for Alexandria, nor did he know that every day he looked at her curled up against her chest and slept, tempting him while making him have to be patient And how afflicted.

However, Alexander still hopes that this winter will never pass, especially in such a snowy day, which is so cold that people do not want to get up from the bed, the more appointments are made.

Perhaps God heard Alexander's prayer of prayer, and the snow never stopped.

On the first day, nobody cares about snow,

The next day, people braved the snow to come out to do business,

On the third day, there were only a few snowmen playing snowball fights on the street.

Finally, starting from the fourth day, people in the city of Rome panicked.

When a servant of the Order meeting stepped on the knee-length heavy snow to reach the Marino Palace, Alexander was taking Sophia to sit in the hearth of a pile of dry wood to warm up.

Alexander held a spoon in one hand and wrapped Sophia's waist in the other, pouring something that looked dark into Sophia's mouth.

Sophia's flushed face shook her head nonstop, her face was a little unsightly, but she still insisted that she would not drink the spoon.

"Sophia's good boy is obedient and a cold is a terrible thing." Alexander coaxed him. He was a little worried. Although he believed that a common cold and fever could completely deal with it, and Sophia's cold was not serious, he did not dare. To the point, after all, a headache and brain fever in this era may kill lives. Considering the doctors who are really unreliable, Alexander really dare not take it lightly.

"It's not difficult to eat with honey." Alexander said with a soft sip. After seeing Sophia hesitated, he closed his lips. He sighed helplessly and drank the potion that was just cooked and a little hot.

Then he lowered his head and kissed Sophia tightly because of feverish lips.

The spicy hot **** soup crossed Sophia's lips. To prevent her from struggling, Alexander held her waist with her left hand and held the back of her head tightly with her right hand. Her lips were tightly blocking Sophia's lips to prevent her from taking the **** soup. Spit it out.

Sophia struggled to kick in Alexander's arms like a cat, and her hands pushed him hard. Her extraordinary strength forced Alexander to hug her even harder.

Sophia made a dull "hum" in her throat, which sounded very strange, so that Alexander, who had just wanted to prevent her from spitting out Jiang Tang, began to feel inexplicably feverish.

Slowly, Alexander felt that Sophia had slapped his hands instead of holding him tightly on the shoulders, and her head no longer swayed, but lifted up slightly, allowing Alexander to kiss her constantly. Lips.

Because a large pile of wood was burned in luxury, the room was not cold. Alexander felt that his throat was dry and his head was wet. He lifted his head slightly away and looked down to see him nest in his arms. The big eyes on Sophia's red flapping face were staring at him without blinking. Alexander's heart was hot again, and he lowered his head to prepare to kiss Sophia's lips again.

It was at this time that the servant of the order meeting followed a maid to the outside of Alexander's room and knocked on his door.

Alexander walked to the door to open a narrow gap, and when he saw the servant, he immediately recognized that this man was a personal follower of Caesar.

Caesar was very clever. After occupying the position of chief of the order meeting, and having occupied many seats by Borgia and the nobles who supported them, Caesar wisely did not arrange himself for the important position of the order meeting. He was very generous He reserved those seats for other nobles, which earned him a very good reputation. Some even thought he was more generous than his father.

But in fact, Alexander knew that Caesar had placed a large number of celebrity servants and servants in the order meeting to take orders, so he secretly controlled a large part of the power of the order meeting.

Although unwilling, after receiving the order summoned by Caesar, he took Sophia to the bed and covered her strictly. After instructing her to take the medicine on time, otherwise she would have to "punish" her as before, Alexander Kissing Sophia, who had started sweating, wet her forehead, and then left the Marino Palace with the servant.

The streets are full of white scenery, which should have been a pleasing beauty, but now it is disturbing, especially when you see the mirror-like gray sunlight on the frozen Tiber River Reflecting the cold ice, Alexander knew that things might be much more serious than he thought.

Sure enough, when he saw Alexandria, there was a moment of relief on Caesar's face.

"We need something for the winter," Caesar's first sentence seemed a little anxious, and even vaguely corrupted. "Maybe you shouldn't be allowed to sell all the food to the French. Now it is our turn to face difficulties."

"The city of Rome is short of food?" Alexander looked at Caesar with some surprise. He felt that this was somewhat incredible. Although Rome did not have a large production area like Agri, the fertile and Direnian Sea in the Lombardy region Convenient maritime transportation, there is no possibility of the dilemma of food shortage.

The main thing is that this is Rome!

Unlike the French who had robbed all the grain stored in the granary in Naples before leaving, Rome as a holy place in the Christian world, even Charlie, the king of the aggressor, did not destroy Rome in a trace, so how could there be a shortage of grain.

"Not just food, but a lot of things, the whole of Rome is in trouble because of this heavy snowfall."

Caesar walked back and forth anxiously, saying that although he had always had extraordinary ambitions and had a priesthood from a very young age, he had become a cardinal at a young age and would even be a cardinal soon, but Everything so far has been arranged for him by Alexander VI.

This is the first time he has given orders completely on his own.

"Alexander, we lack food, vegetables, olive oil that can be illuminated, and even lack of wood for winter. No one expected that the snow would fall for so long. This was a disaster," Caesar said anxiously. Some houses were overwhelmed by snow and some people died, and many roads outside the city of Rome have been blocked by heavy snow. If you do n’t solve all this as soon as possible, there may be riots. "

Looking at Caesar's gloomy look, Alexander knew in his heart that he knew that Caesar's real concern was not the loss to Rome caused by the snowstorm, but riots.

Although the Order Conference took the opportunity to seize control of most of the city of Rome through the criminal case of the City Hall, the French were obviously reluctant to give up the rule of Rome easily, so even a little error may become a French proposal An excuse to regain control of the city.

And Caesar is impossible to give up power, unlike the previous excuse to create various riots, he is most concerned about how to ensure that the city is safe and sound.

Now several days of heavy snow became the first problem he faced after "ruling" the city of Rome. If he can't get rid of the plight in front of him as soon as possible, don't say that the French may find an excuse to withdraw those powers that were promised before, maybe order meetings Someone inside will question his authority.

Caesar couldn't allow this to happen, even if it was just a call.

"We need to send people out of the city to collect those much-needed items. God, there is so much more than food in a winter. I never knew there was so much to do before," Caesar glanced at Alexander. Seeing that he was really listening to him seriously, he touched the beard on his chin that had just appeared thicker with satisfaction "grain, firewood, lamp oil, enough cotton and some cloth that can be used as tents, these are reliefs for those houses Homeless people crushed by snow. "

As soon as Caesar started working, he seemed to become the person who always had great confidence in himself. He began to issue orders continuously, and at the same time, some of the previous orders, which had apparently become obsolete due to heavy snow for several days, Be modified.

Surprisingly, Caesar's memory is very good, he does not even need to go through the base files of the commands that were long ago, as long as it is all kinds of documents signed by him, it seems that he can remember.

And he also showed an unusually strong experience. From the day until the evening, the actual ruler of the Roman city today is working non-stop. In addition to eating cold lamb and sweet soup, he almost Did not take a good rest.

Seeing Caesar working constantly, Alexander had to secretly admire in his heart. He knew that many people were hostile to Caesar's ambitions, and he was also dissatisfied with Alexander VI's position for his son in the church, but Caesar was obviously not the only one. By playing back and forth and acting as a blessing for the widows, Caesar not only calmed down for the first time, he not only quickly calmed down, but also showed extraordinary wisdom and wrist,

He ordered that all members of the Order Conference must be individually responsible for those areas under their jurisdiction. He even ordered the provisional announcement of the establishment of a Roman guardian office, and at the same time announced that all members of the Order Conference would serve as a civil officer. Rescue and maintain order for the residents of their respective jurisdictions.

When Caesar first casually said, "It may be possible to set up a public security officer," it took only a few minutes for him to announce that the order to establish this position took effect. This made Alexander realize that what he had shown before It seems that there is some helpless appearance, completely disguised.

Obviously Caesar had already thought about what to do. Maybe he had already figured out how to use the snowstorm to seize the ruling power of the Roman city more firmly.

"Alexander, we have a problem," Caesar, who was looking at a document just sent, said to Alexander, "Now we have not enough firewood, and worse, the road out of the city has been blocked by heavy snow. , And just received a report saying, "He slightly leaned forward and said in a low voice," There are two bridges leading to Son Ronnie Peak that have been broken by the snow last night, "Speaking of this, Caesar whispered" Saroni There is a coal mine on the peak of the mountain, which is the kind of black stone that can burn. "

Alexander nodded. He knew that many people in continental Europe still don't understand what is going on with coal. As for those who know coal mines, they are very scarce.

Some remote places in England and Northern Europe seem to have used coal earlier than southern Europeans.

As for the coal mine on the Sanroni Peak, Alexander had heard of it.

As the earliest place to use coal in Europe, Italy has enough coking coal mines, and even the famous Milan armor is closely related to the increase in the temperature of the forging fire because of the use of coal rather than firewood. Inseparable relationship.

The Sanroni Peak is a famous coal-producing area in central Italy.

"We have to send someone to get through this path," Caesar looked at Alexandria, his voice lowered. "We have to get in touch with the coalition forces. I worry that the French might do something in this heavy snowfall."

Alexander had always been a little bit, and understood what Caesar meant.

It ’s amazing to say that the coalition forces surrounding the city of Rome are less than the French, and that the so-called siege is more of a symbol. The troops of the two sides sometimes have a short confrontation time outside the city, and even many merchants simply Trading was carried out on the open field of the military.

This strange phenomenon persisted until the main force of the French army was surrounded on the outskirts of Piedmont. The French began to become a little panicked, and the coalition forces also moved. It was said that some people saw artillery outside the city.

But now the heavy snow blocked all the roads, and for the coalition outside the city this time was definitely not a good time to siege, the situation gradually began to become beneficial to the French.

"If the French were to sack the city of Rome at this time, it would be a good opportunity," Caesar flashed a gloom in our eyes. "Our order meeting has just been established. There are not many Roman nobles who are really armed, and my guards want to protect the Vatican. . "

Alexander knew that Caesar was indeed telling the truth. It was already difficult for his army to protect the Vatican, and it was impossible to take care of the Roman city on the other side of the Tiber.

"So you want me to get through this path?"

Alexander knew that now that he had said this, he did not need Caesar to pick it out.

"I need your help ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Caesar's eyes are fixed on Alexander" "If I could, I would rather do this task myself, but now I cannot leave Rome. "

Alexander nodded. He knew the meaning of Caesar's words. Obviously, it was not only important for Rome to get through this path, but the people who completed this task would become the heroes of the Romans besieged by the snow disaster.

As long as you think about it, you can find that among the members of the entire order meeting, the only one who is suitable for accepting this job is Alexander.

Because no matter who completes this task, the change in prestige status may break the delicate balance maintained by the current order meeting. As for Giovanni or Jeffrey, do not do anything other than the order meeting. Parliamentarians will have some scepticism because they are worried about the excessive power of the Borgia family. Even Caesar may not be willing to see the credit of his two brothers.

Alexander had no such concerns, because he was not a Roman, but a Neapolitan, or Sicilian.

"Okay, I'll go back here to prepare for departure tomorrow," Alexander said after a little nodded and agreed. "But I need the Romans to bear the cost of this expedition for me, and I hope that I will get a meeting in order after I return Bonuses paid in nominal terms must be known that the courage of the Bohemians is proportional to their commission. "

This request of Alexander made Caesar smile slightly, but he was very satisfied with Alexander's attitude of purely treating it as a business.

Although Caesar didn't know the phrase "the problem that can be solved with money is not a problem", he would love to see such a simple and pragmatic relationship between him and Alexander.

As to whether the young man who just went out will become Sforza's second, Caesar has not yet considered this issue.
