Conquer the Dawn of Heaven
Vol 5 Chapter 49: Alexandrian farmers
The Balkans are very stubborn, or sometimes a little bit stubborn.
Regarding this point, although Alexander had ears before, but after seeing it with his own eyes, he knew that their "dead eyes" were much more powerful than rumors.
For example, during training, he discovered that the Balkans are much more defensive in their offense than defense, and almost no matter what order they give, they will eventually understand it as an offense.
The formation of the queue is like a natural **** to these people, which makes them violate the order all the time, and some of these violations simply do not understand the command, some do not pay attention to the command at all, some It is clear that they have understood the defying order that can still be stubborn.
This unusual impulse may not be seen when marching, but it is immediately manifested when training and camping.
In addition to making the officers have to repeatedly give out and correct various violations, the Balkans' ability to provoke and provoke disaster is also unexpected.
Alexander had to send hunting guards to stare at the Balkans like hyenas. Sometimes, even after camping, they couldn't get to the camp, and the hunting guards were sent to supervise the soldiers responsible for them.
Alexandria sometimes even feels that compared with these Balkans, the soldiers of Genoa and Montina are really a group of obedient children.
But the Balkans generally satisfied Alexander, at least he liked the hard-working character of the mountain farmers.
The fighting power of the Genoese is unquestionable, which has been known from their high reputation before, and the Aggris are also brave, especially after many battles, the Agri Musketeers have gradually become Synonymous with firmness and loyalty.
This is also the main reason that Alexander can rest assured of the expedition, but even so compared with the Balkans, in some places even the Agri are somewhat lacking.
Persist in marching in bad weather, even if you ca n’t find food for a while, you wo n’t complain easily. When you get to a place, you can build a safe campsite regardless of your fatigue before you rest, and you can even lie down when you need Soon afterwards, he immediately picked up his luggage and moved on.
These are the habits gradually formed by the Montina army after a long period of training. In order to allow the soldiers to withstand the harsher training than the current army, Alexander can be said to have exhausted his efforts.
Because of this, the Montina army was not defeated by the enemy in the nonstop battle.
But these things are taken for granted to the Balkans.
Even the hard work did not make these mountain farmers complain, and the Balkans also expressed contempt for the rough work of the Genoese who refused to build a camp after camping.
Picking up a weapon is a tough soldier, and picking up a tool is a hard-working soldier, which makes Alexander feel that the Balkans are really good value for money.
The only thing that made him feel sorry was that these mountain farmers were too fond of trouble.
A short horn sounded, and the two hunting guards immediately jumped on the horse and ran in the direction of the horn sound, but it did n’t take long before a new horn sounded, and then there were hunting guards Go sideways in that direction.
This attracted Alexander ’s attention. He knew that these horn sounds were signals of mutual summons between the hunting guards. This was probably what happened to call for the staff so urgently, but it seemed that the solution was not so smooth. Alexander couldn't help but get up and prepare to see what happened.
A team of hunting guards immediately followed Alexandria under the leadership of Busako. In addition to their muskets and sabers, many of these hunting guards were also equipped with a hand axe, but this hand axe was not the standard equipment of the hunting guard, but It was only after arriving in the Balkans that someone gradually prepared for himself.
Most of these hand axes have a wooden handle with a length of 1.4 feet. Some people will wrap the tail of the axe with hemp rope or cloth to prevent their hands from slipping and loosening. Some find a blacksmith to install a slightly convex circle on the tail. Ring, and then use a belt to connect your wrist to the ring, so that even if you take off your hand, it will not fly out.
No matter what method is used, the axe of the hand axe is the same. It is a style with a straight axe at the front and a tail that is slightly stretched back and rolled up like a raised tail. The purpose of this look is to be a hand axe After hitting the enemy, the user can quickly pull the axe out of the enemy's body by dragging, without being stuck. For this, there are two protrusions on the axe ridges on both sides of the hand axe to prevent the user from exerting too much force. Slamming the axe blade into the meat is too deep to pull out in time.
This axe did not originate from any army, but from the Balkan countryside.
This was originally a tool used by local farmers to cut down trees, but when Mohammed II invaded, this farming tool and a pitchfork became a standard weapon for Balkan farmers to fight against the Ottomans.
Once the fierce Balkans were crazy, it was really terrifying. Even the Ottomans were frightened by their bravery and even madness. When the farmers waving the pitchfork were oncoming When the firepower rushed into the formation of the Ottoman army, often the most elite new army would also be muddled by mud legs that did not fight as usual.
But now the mud legs are pinching each other.
When Alexander rushed to the place, he saw a large group of people in the distance. People cried out from time to time, and there was a roar of muskets.
Alexander immediately ordered the hunting guards to disperse, and while pulling out muskets to quickly reload the ammunition, Alexander also ordered to let little Cacho come over.
Little Cacho now not only scouts the captain, but also plays the role of translator. Alexander did not expect that Little Cacho has a very good talent in language, but Bosnian is obviously not so easy to learn, which makes him think that although he is small Cacho's selfishness, but Cacio suggested that the woman who had been rescued on the road should have a good idea.
The arrival of Alexandria seemed to make the Balkans a little uneasy, but it just shouted immediately after a little commotion, and even seemed to be more lively because of his arrival.
"Master Lord is here!"
"Then let the landlord master judge!"
"Yes, said to the master of the landlord."
The Balkans yelled horribly and rushed towards Alexander, which made the hunting guards nervous and immediately raised their muskets.
Alexander raised his hand to stop the actions of the hunting guards. Although he was a little strange what these people were doing, he could see that at least these Balkans were not mutinous.
"What happened?" He asked loudly to the first few people running.
"grown ups!"
A rather unexpected person squeezed out of the crowd, seeing Rona Pannoni's sweaty face, Alexander beckoned to him, and then attached his body with his elbow on the saddle and asked, "Tell me What are your people doing, do n’t you know that it is punishable to gather people to make trouble according to the camp rules? "
I do n’t know if the Balkans who blushed because of anxiety or excitement wiped the sweat on their faces hard, and Rona Pannoni said aloud: "Adults, this is our rule. They are not in a crowd, they are in trouble. Grab your wife. "
"Robbing his wife?" Alexander looked at the crowd unexpectedly, and then found that there was a woman among those men.
"There were two guys who saw a girl at the same time when they went to the village for food," Pannoni chuckled. "According to local rules, they can directly propose to the girl's father. If the family agrees, they can get a handkerchief. If you do n’t agree with the girl, she will give the man a bunch of lettuce, but this time something happened. Two guys who proposed at the same time got one handkerchief and one lettuce, which was not a problem. The trouble was the girl at the time. My dad and brother seemed to have made the wrong person at that time, and gave the wrong handkerchief and lettuce. But according to our rules, we must keep our promises as soon as they are sent out. Now the two guys are dueling this matter. "
"I didn't know that my soldiers could still propose to people while they were marching," Alexander looked up at the soldiers straight up. When he saw the Balkans seemingly distracted, Alexander rubbed with his whip A bit sore forehead "Tell me what Pannoni thinks you should be punished for."
"Sir, this is our rule." Pannoni said in amazement.
"It turned out to be like this," Alexander came down from the horse. He walked through the tumultuous crowd to the open spaces, then turned his head to look at the two people who were brought in front of him.
The two soldiers looked very strong, but now they had blue and purple faces except for their clothes.
"So it's them?" Alexander looked at the two.
"Let the master of the landlord judge it." Pannoni said a bit happily. "This kind of thing was solved in private in the past, but if you let the masters know, you can ask the master to give a ruling."
Pannoni said he was also greeted by someone who pushed the girl over. Looking at this equally healthy and strong young woman, Alexander was passed by the whip in his hand after a little thought.
"Pull off the two of them and hang them on the tree," Alexander commanded. "I want to enforce the military regulations first, which is more important than anything."
Seeing what Pannoni was going to say, Alexander raised his hand to stop him.
"I don't want to listen to your explanation, if this is the time especially now." Alexander gestured to the girl with a stunned face, watching the two soldiers dragged by the hunting guards to the tree, he made a whipping The gesture of "Listen, I will pay you the military pay and save the Viscount from your taxation in order to let you serve me as a soldier, but not to trouble me, since you want me to make a ruling for you, then Listen to me. "
Alexander said to Pannoni, who was also puzzled: "The two men beat 20 whips each and let this girl come."
"But lord, one of them is her husband, although he has not been blessed by the pastor, according to our rules ..."
"According to my rules, they both have to eat whips," Alexander looked around. "Then I will solve this matter in your way."
With a whip in her hand, some overwhelmed girl was led by the hunting guards to the two men, looking at the two men who were stripping their shirts on their backs with their hands hanging from the tree. The girl looked around dumbly.
"It seems to help her." Alexander said and waved his hand.
The two hunting guards came over and drew their guns at the heads of the two soldiers.
The girl whose face changed greatly shouted, and Alexander felt that she understood "No!"
"Tell her whether to whip or lose both lives." Alexander told Pannoni.
Pannoni shouted helplessly to the girl, listening to the hustle and bustle that sounded around him. He had a ugly face and said to Alexander: "Adult, this is not consistent ..."
"This is my army," Alexander looked around immovably. "And you are my soldiers, then I am your landlord and lord. Do you have to violate my orders?"
Pannoni's mouth moved for a few more words, but Alexander already waved his hand and made a gesture.
"First time!"
A hunting guard shouted.
"You better do it quickly, otherwise it will be worse if someone else does it." The little Cacho who had come over stood behind the girl and whispered in her ear, "20 lashes per person, no more and no less."
The girl looked back at Alexandria, not knowing whether it was anger or fear, but she still gritted her teeth and waved the whip in her hand towards the backs of the two soldiers.
Women's power is certainly not as great as men's, but it is still uncomfortable to be lashed after being stripped in such a cold day.
It's just that although the whip is painful on the body, both soldiers closed their mouths and refused to make a cry, whether it was to harden their face in front of their favorite woman or to prevent others from looking down.
Just looking at the two soldiers with red whip marks on their backs, Alexander glanced at Pannoni next to him.
There was also helplessness on Pannoni's face. He could see that the girl was obviously a lot lighter towards one of them, and even two times she simply took it freely by beating the other soldier. It was estimated that she had seen her No need to say anything about this move. Alexander should also know which one she fancy.
Although the woman ’s whip is not strong, it is also uncomfortable if it is directly pulled on the whip in the ice and snow, and waits for the two soldiers who were put down to put on their jackets. His musket turned the handle of the gun and handed it to them.
"Honor, wealth, and women are all obtained in the simplest way," Alexander said to Pannoni. "Let them duel here. In order to save precious gunpowder and not be biased, they just have to stand on the spot." . "
The musket was tucked into the hands of two people, and then aimed at the other person in front of each other.
"Are you going to kill both of them?" Pannoni asked in amazement. Balkan's stubbornness and fearlessness did not mean that they would be indifferent to such things at this time. Looking at the two Staring at each other, the soldiers who were about to burst into flames, Pannoni felt that things seemed a little out of the ordinary.
"Isn't it a very common thing to fight for a loved one," Alexander asked Caucasus to bring the girl over. "Or let her order, if she is not willing to stop the fight, let her do it for her future life." Decide. "
"But she has already made a choice. It's her family who made the wrong thing to deliver." Pannoni said helplessly. "That's two very good soldiers. I know one of them, in front of him and the Ottomans." Never be soft. "
"Then he should fight for his honor more, and I didn't see that the two of them were shy and timid, and the girl hasn't stopped them so far, right, let God decide who she will eventually marry."
Alexander waved to Cacio Jr., seeing Cacio Jr. whispering to the girl, and then suddenly turned back to Pannoni.
"Pannoni, am I too kind to you? Maybe I should use a whip instead of military pay to let you know what to do. As for the tax cut for you, I should also consider whether I should propose to the Viscount to cancel, as if Only then can you remember your identity. "
"Adult, we ..."
Just when Pannoni opened his mouth to say something, there was already a scream in the open space.
Suddenly the girl ran away from Cacho Jr., and she rushed towards the two confronting soldiers like crazy, and then tried her best to hug one of them tightly.
There was a sudden noise around the Balkans, and the Balkans screamed, and many people kept tapping the wooden shields around them.
"Look, isn't it the case?" Alexander looked at Pannoni with a smile.
Pannon looked at one of them screaming like a fighting **** ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ and the other two soldiers who put down their muskets in frustration, after a while, suddenly turned towards Alexander asked: "Master, are there no ammunition in these two muskets, right?"
Looking at Pannoni's curious look, Alexander beckoned the two hunting guards who had recovered the rifle, then pulled out the rifle from one of the holsters of one of them, raised his hand and pulled the gun against the trunk not far away machine.
"boom!"
A dull gunshot sounded, and a few holes in the trunk suddenly caught sight!
With Pannoni and the surrounding Balkans momentarily stunned, Alexander turned somber.
"Hang those two men on the tree, and one of them took 20 whips," Alexander ordered while turning his horse's head. "This time, choose two of you to carry out the military. Remember that I want to see them get something for their actions. Due punishment. "
Watching Alexander go away, Pannoni froze for a while, then suddenly turned back and shouted to the Balkans who were still staring at this scene: "What are you doing, hanging them up, no Did you see your madness! "
