Conquer the Dawn of Heaven
Vol 5 Chapter 80: Bucharest's madness
These days, Bucharest hasn't talked much about the topic, except for the major event of the Ottoman invasion, and about the Earl of Montina.
The young nobles from the West were a mysterious and charming fan for Bucharest people. This was not only felt by women, but also by men, most of them had great interest in the count.
The other is his army, which can be said to have created miracles.
When the Montina army blocked the Ottomans on the Mures River, although many people were surprised and curious about his brave actions, they had not really caused the Bucharest people to have such a strong interest, while fighting on the Danube Plain But it really touched the Bucharest.
It is unthinkable for the Balkans to fight their enemies almost twice.
Many Balkan nobles and their ancestors had challenged the Ottomans in their early years. They tried to change their fate of being finally ruled, but the result was repeated defeats.
The Ottomans looked at them as if they were really blessed by God, and many people have gradually developed the impression that Ottomans are impossible to defeat and resist.
The surrender of Roy? Hit the Bucharest more severely than expected. When it was heard that the hero who once resisted the Ottomans betrayed and cast their enemies, many people completely collapsed because of total despair.
Therefore, the arrival of the Montina army is not just bringing a victory that is actually not enough to show off, and a reinforcement that has not changed the strength of the two sides in number, but it has allowed the Bucharest people to see the long-lost hope again.
Alexander became the savior in Bucharest's mind. He received the highest courtesy and a lot of gratitude, but just how many people really welcomed him, but for a while did not see it.
People only saw joyful laughter and various grateful words. Banquets and countless girls flocked to the Montina soldiers dressed in exotic styles, although there was only a Adria between Rome and the Balkans. The sea, but the exotic style of the Montina army and the completely different atmosphere from the locals still attract many women who are willing to take risks to be more intimate with these foreigners.
Alexander has been wandering between these banquets and dances for a few days. The Bucharest people seem to want to release all their enthusiasm at once. They enjoy the carnival and fun, and even the prostitutes who are usually regarded as lowly prostitutes can also be treated with grandeur Recruit some nobles' homes, enjoy the food and wine with this guest and enjoy this short-term joy with the guests without knowing the temperance.
"This is a city of joy, or a dying city," Zeppes suddenly said to Alexander at a banquet. "Do you think you can save this city when you come, in fact, you should know it yourself If it is impossible to defeat the Ottomans, can you tell me why you are here in Bucharest, perhaps I can help you. "
"Duke, do you mean to help yourself?" Alexander and Zeppes stood together and looked at the crowd in the yard. The Balkans' enthusiasm made them unrestrained once they went wild, so it was held in the house. Banquets often end up in the yard, and if everyone does not drink upside down, it seems that the host is not enthusiastic enough.
The owner of this family is very enthusiastic. The fertile land of the Bucharest Plains has provided him with enough pastures and made a lot of money relying on raising sheep in large quantities to sell wool. However, the arrival of the Ottomans made this owner useless, so He simply returned to his home, and in addition to paralyzing himself with a banquet every day, he also took out a large amount of family property and donated it to the city to resist the Ottomans.
And this wealthy nobleman is now one of Zeppes' biggest supporters and fund providers.
"Count, do you think if this continues, how long can the city stay?" Zeppes asked helplessly. "Everyone is asking this question, but no one dares to really answer, because they don't know when the Ottomans will To launch an offensive, although everyone wonders why Bayesett is still not acting, if that person does come, you will find that those who had confidence in you before have immediately changed. "
Zepes's indifferent expression was uncomfortable, but Alexander knew he was right.
Bucharest originally had a garrison of less than 50,000. Even with the addition of the Montina army, there were not 60,000. The Ottoman army originally had nearly 80,000. If you count the Bosnian army and they are obviously more advanced than the Balkans. With sharp weapons, it is not uncommon for Bucharest people to feel pessimistic.
It ’s just that Alexander knew that their pessimism was not necessary today. He remembered that Bucharest fell after more than a decade, and after that, the principality of Wallachia has always insisted on resisting the Ottoman Empire. Invasion and **** were not completely conquered until a long time ago.
Of course, Alexander would not tell Cepes that he was just wondering how Wallachia could persist for so long after almost all of the Balkans fell, perhaps the person in front of him could tell him.
"Ladislas II, or Urasino II, is the king of Bohemia and Hungary, but he is not the Grand Duke of Wallachia, so he has no power to rule this land, and I also I do n’t believe he will really cherish everything here, ”Zeppes looked at Alexander to let his emotions slow down.“ Count, the king ’s purpose was to trap the Ottomans with Bucharest. He hoped that the Greek nobles could make more for Sudan. Trouble to delay his invasion of Hungary, because as long as someone with a little knowledge can see, the Ottoman ambition is not just here, they are to conquer Europe. "
Alexander nodded gently, he admitted that Zeppes was right, the Ottoman ambition was indeed to conquer Europe, or at least every other party they thought they could conquer, which is related to the stubborn attachment of the East to the land. In the eyes of the land is everything, and there is no more proof of strength than conquering others' land.
The Ottoman invasion of Europe has just begun.
However, Alexander felt that these had nothing to do with him. His purpose of coming to Bucharest had been fulfilled for half a year. He had now seen Sophia and found that her situation was subtle, but as he had just engaged in the battle with the Ottomans, it caused Bucharest ’s Resist the enthusiasm, at least Sophia is temporarily safe.
So by this opportunity, should we consider completing the other half of the plan?
The copper mine in Hungary, which Alexander has never missed from the beginning.
Alexandria did not know exactly how much the Fugels paid for obtaining copper mining rights from Emperor Maximian, but he knew that it was all worth it.
In a period of time, the Fugger family almost became the copper price setter of the whole of Europe. They used a lot of rich copper mines to control the entire European market. In addition to the continuous flow of wealth into their money bank, the more important thing is By controlling the largest copper mine in Europe at that time, the family extended its tentacles into the depths of almost every European court.
Whether it is Vienna or Prague, whether it is the palaces of the princes of Italy or the castle on the banks of the Loire in France, the Fugger family used the wealth and resources in their hands to open up layers of relationships and began to try to influence Europe. Those monarchs.
Perhaps such an ambition may seem a bit absurd now, but it is unbelievable that the Fugels really did it later.
At the height of this family, they even influenced who the Holy Roman Emperor throne belongs to!
It ’s just that although the Fugger ’s family is deeply entrenched, they have n’t become that giant. They still have to invest blood to get the support of King Maximilian in order to get the Hungarian copper mine. Silas II was clearly dissatisfied with this.
So everything is possible. Alexander couldn't help but think of a very familiar sentence, and at this moment he happened to hear Zeppes humming: "What are the king's people doing."
Hearing Zeppes' words, Alexander looked around and saw the men of the two kings walking towards them through the crowd.
After a warm welcome to Alexandria, Ladislas II invited Alexandria to participate in an alliance meeting chaired by the king himself. At the meeting, the king announced that the mission of the reinforcements coming from afar was to obey his direct command.
This of course caused dissatisfaction among many people, including Cepes, but they also knew that they could not oppose the king's decision.
The identity of Ladislas II in Bucharest is undoubtedly the highest, and more importantly, the alliance meeting convened in the name of the Greek princess was first proposed by him.
Although Zepez took advantage of Sophia's name not long ago to gather a group of nobles around him, but as Sophia returned to the king, or since the arrival of Alexander, the situation in Bucharest became more subtle.
The king's entourage struggled through the crowd and came to Alexandria and Zeppes.
They were sweating at this time, shaking their clothes and saying, "My lord, your majesty wants you to go to the castle immediately," said the two of them who looked at each other, then nodded and continued, "I suggest you Hurry up, adults, your majesty seems to be anxious. "
The followers made the two look at each other, and for a moment they saw a little confusion in the other's eyes.
Ladislas II's eyes were fixed on the fireplace. The weather in April was already very warm. Although the Balkan Mountains were still a little wet at night at this time, it was still warm enough.
But the hot flame in the fireplace reflected in the king's eyes, but his eyes were still cold.
The arrival of the Montina army did not make the king happy, or that he had never thought of relying on these Balkan nobles to defeat the Ottomans from the beginning.
Ladislas II only hopes that these people will become his barriers to protect Hungary,
Or at least can slow down the pace of Bayese's characteristic suit.
But suddenly, Ladislas II found that his previous plan was completely defeated.
The bad news that the Bosnians suddenly gathered on the Hungarian border put Ladislas II in a dilemma. What was worse was that according to the messenger report that brought the news, the Principality of Canola also seems to be brewing a conspiracy. .
"That shameless camel."
Ladislas II viciously cursed, and he did not have any affection for Grand Duke Carniola. In the view of Ladislas II, Karl is a pure villain, especially because he and the Ottomans The brows and bounces were considered by Ladislas II as one of the main threats to southern Hungary.
If in the past, it was impossible for Ladislas II to take such a person as Grand Duke Carl, but now he has to take the news about Cagnola seriously.
The news that the Bosnians suddenly appeared on the southern border of Hungary disturbed the king. He guessed that this should be the strategy of Bayestet II, but although he knew it, he could not yet come up with a solution to this problem.
The frequent appearance of the emissary of Roy? In Ljubljana, the capital of Canola, caused Ladislas II's idea.
Kanyola ’s position made the king have to pay attention to it. When the Bosniaks were clearly preparing to take action against Hungary, the emissary of Roy? Frequently contacted Karl, which made Ladislas II immediately. Smell the unusual smell.
The attendant who walked into the room to report interrupted the king's contemplation. Hearing that Zeppes and Alexander had arrived, the king waved his hand to the entourage to let them in.
At the moment when he saw the king, Zeppes was keenly aware of the suspicious look that the king had thrown at him.
Ladislas II was indeed full of scruples. He was worried that the changes that had just occurred might shake his constraints on the Balkan nobles who were already reckless, and he was even more worried that he might disrupt his plans and make him before. The arrangement fell short of success.
It was only then that the King really realized why the Sultan had remained unmoved since then. It now appears that this was not because Bayesert II was indecisive about the game, but that he had planned a plan for him from the beginning.
Looking at the two people in front of him, Ladislas II suddenly had a kind of secret rejoicing. Although the arrival of Alexander made him very angry at the beginning, now he suddenly felt that maybe the appearance of the foreign count could help him solve Cepes. Possible threats.
"My friends, you are just here. I have something to tell you," the king gestured slightly to the two of them, letting them come to the window with themselves, and they looked down upon Bucharest, Ladislas II. In a slightly worried tone, "Don't you think we are too laid back this time, the Ottomans seem to have forgotten us, their army is now across the Alger River, but what our people are doing, busy every day Holding a banquet and dancing. "
"But Sudan hasn't done anything during this time, maybe it's better for us all."
Zeppes was secretly surprised. He felt that the king's behavior was a bit strange. With the king's previous behavior, he should be more willing to see the situation now, because this means that the Ottoman army will not threaten Hungary at least in the short term.
Suddenly, the king seemed to be impatient with the Ottomans' impulse, which made Zepes more cautious than he was.
"The Ottomans may be waiting. They are waiting for us to relax our vigilance and then suddenly attack. Obviously this is the case. Perhaps at this time the Ottomans have begun to act." Ladislas II said with some excitement .
"So what do you think it should be, Your Majesty?" Alexander, who had been listening to him, finally spoke. He knew that the king had come to them not just to make some alarmist speeches, he wanted to know Ladislas II What the **** is the idea.
"To launch an offensive and to actively attack the Ottomans. Only in this way can we avoid that we might fall into the trap of the enemy," the king finally said his intentions, and he was surprised when he saw Zepez's words. The look, the king just smiled at him and then turned back to Alexander and said, "Count, our army should go out of Bucharest. Your bravery has already proved that the Ottomans are not invincible. You have proved it with less than 7000 people. Fact, and now that we have nearly 60,000 people, can't we still create a miracle like this? "
Alexander looked at Ladislas II in amazement, and at one time felt a bit at a loss for the King's unexpected proposal.
What surprised Alexander even more was that Ladislas II immediately ordered all the nobles to announce his decision.
"Proactively attacked the Ottomans and wiped them out in the land of Wallachia," the nobles present at the meeting delivered a fervent speech "their army is indeed more than ours, but you think those are Will the soldiers forced to fight for them after the conquest be loyal to that Bayesite, or will the Bosniacs completely obey the pagan orders, and we do not have this problem, we are fighting to protect God in the human world, Monti Earl Na has proved that the Ottomans can also be defeated. Now we have nearly 70,000 people, and the Ottomans are not much more powerful than us. The most important thing is that here is Bucharest. Do n’t forget that the conqueror Muhammad was in The city was defeated before, and Sudan himself even nearly lost his life, and that time Ottoman had a greater advantage. So do you still think we cannot win? "
The king's words caused a fierce reaction among the nobles ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ People whispered first, and the voice became louder as they became more emotional.
Finally, as some people began to respond loudly to the king's words, the people in the whole venue became very excited.
Gradually, a common voice sounded in the venue: "Offense! Offense!"
"This is wrong. There must be something wrong."
Zeppes watched the instigated nobles staring blankly at Ladislas II sitting in the middle, and he immediately noticed the scene where the king was whispering to Alexander sitting beside him.
What Zeppes did not hear was that the king was saying to Alexander at this time: "Count, I have decided that you will direct the attack on the Ottomans. I believe that under your command, Bucharest ’s The miracle happened again. "
Listening to the words of Ladislas II, and then looking at the nobles who were shouting to fight against the Ottomans, under the gloomy gaze of Zepez, Alexander felt that he might be in trouble this time.
