Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Vol 3 Chapter 160: War and wealth

On the way back to Marino Palace, Alexander was still remembering the meaningful smile of Kotzach.

Obviously, many people have ignored this palace before.

Under the halo of Gonzalo Yao, Kotzach ’s deliberately low-key quickly made people forget his identity for a time, many people only regarded him as a mediocre prince beside Maximian, not to mention him Compared with Gonzalo.

But today, Alexander found that in fact everyone was deceived by this old man. He lived in the quiet life of the dive. He was hiding aside and unhurriedly compiling a large net. When he compiled this large net, Many people have already become prey in his net.

Alexander did n’t believe that Milan ’s fierce reaction would be so accidental, or that the Sforza family really just wanted to be fair to Giovanni. In fact, it ’s common to see victims in any conspiracy in this era. Alexander even remembered the upcoming murder of another Giovanni, Caesar, who was suspected of being the mastermind of the murder, and even had the public support of the Holy See to defend him.

So the death of Giovanni Sforza is not the real reason why Milan did not hesitate to fight against Alexander VI. Now that he sees Kotzach, he finally knows that the Austrian Grand Duke behind all this is also the King of Germany. Shadow of Maximian.

Among them, actually involved the lowlands of the Netherlands.

Alexander knew that Maximilian ’s beautiful son Philip had inherited his father ’s power in the Netherlands since he married the later famous madwoman Juana. In fact, this was also a helpless move. Maximian was in the lowlands The rule of the region is so bad that it is so frustrating. He can't get along with everyone. Whether it is a noble or a rich businessman, no matter the boatman or the peasant, all seem to hate the rule of the German king. He almost offended the entire lowland. Everyone, everyone is looking forward to his hurry to let God take away.

In the end, Maximian took the opportunity of Philip's marriage to transfer the **** of the lowlands to his son, hoping to change the hatred of the people in the lowlands.

But now it seems that Maximian's idea has not been realized. Philip's rule in the lowlands is struggling, and the French's backing of these places makes things more complicated.

So in order to stabilize the rule in the Netherlands, did Maximian hesitate to provoke a new Italian war?

Alexander secretly snorted.

Since Charles VIII announced his succession to the throne of Naples, the entire Apennine peninsula has been involved in this protracted war known as the Italian War in later generations. After that, there was another long war that almost spanned the times, and I would never have thought of how many countries would be involved as the war developed.

A soft call came from his ear, and Alexander woke up deeply. He looked back and saw the charming face of Olgala sitting next to him.

Olgala still has a smile on her face, but it seems that she can see a faint worry. Alexander knows that she should be worried about the news she heard. Obviously Kotzach accidentally mentioned the Netherlands. The news reminded her of Grogening.

For the businessman of the Hanseatic League, Alexander was not good or bad feelings. He knew that the person was actually like many people in history, relying on beautiful wrists and being good at observing and watching. Between them, these people may not have any power, and they will not stand up and appear in front of the public casually, but they often support some people who are favored by them behind their backs and push their agents to the front. To compete for power, and then use the combination of money and power to obtain maximum benefits for them.

"Do you think Charlie will really start another war so soon?" Olgala suddenly asked. "After all, it is said that the French have just experienced a fiasco."

Looking at Olgara's charming face, which was slightly fragile due to vague concerns, Alexander wanted to tell her that even if the French came back, it would not be carried by Charles VIII, because This unlucky egg will soon be killed because his head was hit by a big hole in the door frame.

But of course he would n’t say that, and in the impression of Alexandria, the Milanese did not launch such a war into Rome, but think that Giovanni Sforza should not have been used by Borgia Cantrera was poisoned, and Alexander couldn't tell what would happen next.

"I must tell the old man the news." Olgala said suddenly, her charming, charming eyes glanced at Alexander. "Maybe the French have already begun to prepare. I must let the old man know the news. This pair He must be very important. "

Speaking of which, Olgala smiled at Alexander: "Maybe you can help me, you know that there will be many opportunities once the war breaks out, my lord can use this opportunity to make a lot of money, believe You will certainly not object to increasing your wealth a little bit. "

Alexander showed interest. He knew that this woman should be trusted by Grogening. In some cases, he could make some decisions instead of Grogning. Now looking at her with a smile on his face, Alexander could n’t help it. Thinking about, what is she going to set herself?

"Of course I hope to make more money. You know that the number of my Agri soldiers has not been able to increase, mainly because there is not enough money."

Alexander replied with a smile, he naturally knew that the woman had no plans, but it would be nice if she could take the opportunity to make a fortune as she said. As he said, the huge demand for firearms and gunpowder by the Agri Musketeers made He was a little breathless. With his current financial resources, it has been difficult to maintain the existing army of hundreds of people. Although the free trade zone will become his source of wealth in the future, he still can't count on it.

At this time, Alexander suddenly missed Ruosha very strongly, or rather, remembered the large amount of money that Ruosha might bring him.

"Maybe we can hoard some food together," Olgala whispered deliberately, seeming to be afraid of being heard by people outside the carriage. "Once the Milanese enter Romagna, the Holy See will not allow this to happen. There will be wars, so if we can hoard a large amount of food in advance, we may be able to make a fortune by taking advantage of it. "

Looking at the enchanting face in front of him, Alexander looked at what the woman wanted to do.

Really just want to seize the opportunity to accumulate wealth? Alexander had some doubts.

In any era, food is a very important material, and in the era of turbulent war, food is a huge code that can control the direction of a war.

Alexander didn't believe that Olgala encouraged him to do so purely to make a fortune for Florin. Considering the origin of Grogening, he already vaguely guessed Olgala's purpose.

But this woman's words did arouse his interest. He knew that with this woman's background, she might indeed be able to make a lot of money before the arrival of this new war, which was unexpected by many.

In this case, why not do it?

"What are you going to do, ma'am?" Alexander asked with a smile. "But I may not be able to pay too much principal. You know my poor money will still maintain my army."

"Are you so stingy?" Olgala asked deliberately in a slightly angry tone, then smiled again. "But it doesn't matter, what you need to do is not to invest much money."

As she said, she could not help but glanced at the hunting guard who followed the car.

Looking at Olgala's beautiful face, Alexander suddenly moved.

"Ma'am, maybe I can introduce you to someone," Alexander said slowly, but he was talking about this sudden idea.

"Oh, who is it?"

Olgalal asked curiously. She had been living in Rome for a long time, and she had already known a lot of dignitaries, but she knew that to fulfill the master's order, she had to meet more powerful people.

"A man who really has power." Alexander had already figured out what to do at this time, and then he chuckled and said something that made Olgala's anger angry. "Relax Madam, whatever you need, I will be satisfied Your."

The Milan army has crossed the Magorasca Pass!

When this news reached Rome, the Milan army was actually not far from the traditional Romagna region.

As a habit for many years, the Magoraska Mountain has been regarded as an invisible boundary between the Apennine Peninsula and the European continent. Only after crossing this not-so-high peak can it truly enter the vast European continent. Inland, the rich Lombardy will also show its infinite charm.

Similarly, for Alexander VI, Milan ’s army crossed the Magorasca pass and pointed at Romagna ’s move, meaning that the Sforza family really violated his limit!

The Pope once again sent a messenger to Milan, but this time his words were harsh and blunt. The Milanese's actions clearly stimulated Alexander VI, and for him the Sforza family had changed from a previous ally to a complete enemy .

What made Alexander VI even more angry was that both Kotszach and Gonzalo seemed to turn a blind eye to the actions of the Milanese. This made him not only feel the anger of being betrayed, but also perceive some kind of badness.

Alexander VI remembered Maximian's recognition of the Duke of Milan and thought of the shadow of such a person behind it, he immediately felt that he was really alone.

This reminded Alexander VI of Caesar's previous proposal to him.

It was just that Alexander VI was hesitant. He didn't know if this time he could get his daughter's marriage in exchange for a reliable ally of Bisforza.

Since Giovanni's death, Lucrezia has disappeared from people's sight.

Although there are rumors that she is in a monastery near Rome, no one has really seen her.

Alexander VI knew that he would always find a new husband for his daughter. If it were not for this reason, he would not finally decide to agree to the two sons to start Giovanni.

The Milanese's step by step made Alexander VI aware of the crisis. Although the Milanese were coming, he knew that in addition to the enemy in front of him, the greater threat should come from Maximian.

This made Alexander VI finally decide to accept Caesar's suggestion, but he didn't wait for him to start looking for a new husband for Lucrezia. A rather unexpected news caught Alexander VI's attention.

I don't know when it started, news of the forthcoming war among the nobles in the city of Rome began.

Although it is no secret that Milanese pressed Romagna, this time the rumors mentioned a topic that many people have to pay attention to.

As the Milanese crossed the Magorasca Pass, the road from Rome to the Lombardy area was naturally cut off by the Milan army. It was soon discovered that the only way to get food from Lombardy now is to pass Shipping by sea, and able to meet such a huge amount of grain, seems to be only the ports of Genoa and those chambers of commerce that are sufficiently local.

The largest chamber of commerce in Genoa belongs to the Rovere family.

For a time, the villa of the Rovere family became lively, and the inexplicable Roman nobles and wealthy merchants began to flock to the Rovere family ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ The nobles hoped to see Giuliano and Lafort, and the merchants Can have a good talk with the old lady of the Luo Weilei family.

Just as these people scrambled into the villa of the Rovere family, Alexander came to the Rovere family.

When seeing the young woman who was following Alexander, many people showed strange looks in their eyes. Many of them were no strangers to this beautiful place with the coalition forces entering Rome, even some of them She was once her guest.

But looking at Alexander so brazenly taking this woman to Luo Weilei's house, many people still feel that his guts are a bit too big.

After seeing Olgala, Constantine's expression completely changed.

He dragged Alexander to the corner angrily, then yelled angrily at the collar of his collar: "What do you want to do? Are you going to humiliate Barendi or humiliate my family, you dare to take that woman come here!"

"What if I said that I came to make your father a cardinal?"

Although it is possible to understand why Constantine was so angry and angry, Alexander did not want to appear unreasonable in front of his uncle.

He first used his hand, and then tapped Constantine's hand with the hilt. After the uncle's uneasy release, Alexander waved to Orgala, who was watching the scene silently.

"Let's go to see the Archbishop," Alexander said and turned back to Constantine. "Where is Balendi?"

"She's inside," Constantine was annoyed, and then he suddenly caught up with two steps of lowering his voice and asked softly in a slightly eager tone, "Is it true that you can help my father become a cardinal?"

"This," Alexander glanced at Olgala, who was next to him. "I brought this lady for this matter."
