Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Vol 5 Chapter 89: Great Battle (2)

Sophia's appearance immediately caused a commotion in the hall.

For Sophia, the mood of the Balkans is actually very complicated.

On the one hand, the presence of the Greek princess gave them hope. The identity of the last blood of the Valleola family is enough to shake the hearts of almost every Balkan aristocrat, because this identity means unimaginable appeal and may lead to it. All kinds of possibilities.

On the other hand, the nobles worried that the girl would become a tool and a puppet in the hands of others.

No one wants to appear as an emperor who is pressed on top of his head, and he does not want this person to be on his own before, or perhaps even inferior to his own. This is the normal state of human beings, and some of them even vaguely hold "even The Ottomans are cheaper than being picked up by an adventurer "thoughts.

So when Cepes showed that he was close to Sophia, he was suspected by many people. They worried that his purpose of getting close to Sophia was to take advantage of the opportunity to control the girl, or not just Zepez, any man who tried to get close to Sophia Everyone has become the target of attention of others. Everyone has built an invisible defense line around Sophia to guard against the intrusion of others. Even even small people like Moorco are no exception. In the eyes of many people, Moore also belongs to the kind of people who try to seize the opportunity by approaching Sophia.

However, the nobles are still reassured that Sophia is obviously not a person obsessed with power. This at least avoids the situation that she has caused greater chaos because of her intention to master power. So far, she has only shown the need for power. That is, I heard that foreign troops came to help but was treated indifferently by the Bucharest people. For this reason, she walked up to the walls of Bucharest and showed her great influence to the Balkans for the first time.

Then Sophia seemed to become a carefree girl again, except that she seemed full of curiosity and interest in the army from Rome, she returned to her little palace, and no one knew that she was all What are you doing all day long?

It is not that no one thought of the trouble that Alexander and Sophia might have brought about, but the origin of the earl and his situation have been known before because of the publicity of a businessman with a big mouth.

At least the identity of Count Montina is enough to save people from worrying about the troubles of marriage. As for whether there will be any ambiguous relationship between the two, this is not the concern of those nobles.

In other words, some nobles vaguely hope that something will actually happen between the two, because there is a tacit understanding between the upper nobles of the Balkans, although they have not said it, that is, they want Sophia to be single forever, or That is to say, at least when she still has great influence, do not talk about marriage.

A single Greek father is more attractive than a princess who is married to a wife, and is more easily accepted. A strong or weak husband can hardly accept it.

Because a strong husband will use his identity to influence Sophia, and a cowardly husband may make them both husband and wife become puppets and tools for others.

Now that Sophia's sudden appearance caused a commotion, many people immediately looked involuntarily at Cepes sitting in front.

Regardless of his opponents or his own people, it is believed that Sophia's appearance should be related to Cepes, because he has always been close to Sophia, and he used Sophia's influence to establish himself in Bucharest.

As a result, the look people look at Zepes becomes complicated, some people show obvious hostility, and some are about to cry out in excitement.

Cepes was also surprised. He didn't know how Sophia suddenly appeared in the venue, which made him somewhat puzzled and somewhat expectant.

Zepes hoped that he would have a greater impact on Sophia. After all, the benefits brought by this are obvious, but he is not stupid, or he has not forgotten everything because the benefits are too large, he knows that if he can do that It will become a target, so he is careful not to anger those nobles while exerting a subtle influence on Sophia.

But if Sophia took the initiative to show his support for him, Cepes was still willing to accept the result.

Sophia stood under the porch for a long time, and then she turned back and uttered a monotone cry.

A man who felt strange to many people approached Sophia. Seeing the countless double projections in the hall, the man's face barely squeezed a ugly smile, but then immediately returned to her because she was scolded by Sophia. Behind him.

Alexander looked at Prato unexpectedly. He was actually thinking about what the nasty Morco and the big-mouthed Prato would say tonight. Think of Sophia ’s anger after hearing his things. Alexander thought that Ba It was really a good time for Jesse II to attack suddenly at this time.

Sophia walked across the crowd to the king. The armor on her body made a clattering noise. The gorgeous patterns on the armor glowed with dazzling light under the reflection of the sunlight coming through the window. This scene made the originally noisy hall. Gradually calmed down, people's eyes moved with Sophia's figure until she walked not far from the king, and then she gently lifted the skirt angle of the silk armor skirt adorned with armor and decorated it to Ladi Silas II bowed to salute.

There was a smile on the corner of the king's mouth, no matter how much Sophia made him feel uncomfortable, but now that the girl who behaves dignifiedly, the king still has some sense of accomplishment in his heart. After all, it was a rude and unreasonable country girl who came to the Prague court. , And now her performance is as noble and dignified as a real princess, the king is pleased that his queen can tune such an elegant lady, and more importantly, Ladislas II believes that she still has Deep enough influence.

Ladislas II nodded slightly to some overwhelmed celebrant officer, and the ceremonial officer immediately raised his instrument stick and struck the ground hard.

"Honorable, Roman and Roman monarchs, the sole heirs to the sovereigns of the kingdoms, Her Royal Highness Princess Sophia Alexandra Valleora."

The loud singing voice echoed in the hall, and the nobles' expressions gradually became serious, even those nobles with high status also stood up and looked at Sophia.

Alexander also stood up. This was the first time he saw Sophia standing in front of everyone, watching the figure in armor facing the people proudly, and suddenly Alexander had a faint sense of strangeness.

Perhaps that Sophia was still his Sophia, but Alexander knew something was really different.

Sophia nodded gently to everyone in the hall. If you look closely, she will find her behavior is not very decent, or even a little bit reckless and stubborn. It seems that even nods to people are a bit tough, but this has formed A kind of charm that belongs to her own. It looks like a child who has been strong and not fully grown up trying to prove her maturity to adults. This should have been a little funny, but her uniqueness is more than that of her peers. The person is indeed too mature, but it seems to be a strong proof of her stubbornness, which makes her look full of a special charm that cannot be described.

Perhaps this charm will only be regarded as rude in the Italian courts, but in the Balkans, her appearance has attracted countless resonances.

Sophia glanced at Cepes and Alexander sitting on each side of the king, seemed to think about it, and then slowly walked to the side of Alexander, slowly sat under the attention of everyone, and the servant hurried to move her, close to the king Chair.

Prato followed Sophia carefully, and when he stood behind the chair, he clearly felt the warning glance at Alexander who seemed to greet Sophia.

Prato would like to explain to Alexander, but considering this night's experience, he thought it would be better to close his mouth.

"Count, please continue," the king nodded to Alexandria, and then explained to Sophia next to him, "The Ottomans are trying to attack Dembwica, which is very serious."

Sophia nodded inexplicably, her eyes always fixed on Alexander's face, as if to find out some secrets from the changes in his face.

Alexander coughed a little, and he felt that Sophia looked a little weird, just like a judge preparing to announce the result of the trial, deliberately paused before the last critical moment, enjoying the pleasure of tormenting others at that moment.

Although he knew that this was probably because he thought too much, Alexander did think so, and he felt that maybe this was not just his assumption. Sophia probably appeared with this kind of thought in mind.

"We do have to defend Dembwica, but what we should do really needs serious consideration."

Alexander looked at the nobles, his eyes swept over many people, and his Montina people became regulars in many taverns and brothels after entering the city. The generous Montina people are very popular with the locals, but they are not aware of it. Unconsciously, when people made money from these foreign gangsters, all kinds of news passed silently into the ears of the Montina.

So although it did n’t take a long time to come to Bucharest, Alexander was not unfamiliar with some of the things that happened in the city. As for the intricate relationship between those nobles, although it ’s somewhat difficult to understand, it ’s not completely difficult. It is entirely possible to know who speaks a lot in Bucharest today, and who was once the enemy with whom.

"The Ottomans' entry into Dembuvica is clearly premeditated, and we must think of whether there are other conspiracies, perhaps they are waiting for us to make a defensive for Dembucha," Alexander said while looking across. Cepes, and then he was satisfied to see that Cepes' face changed.

The headless corpse of Vlad III was buried in the cathedral of Dembwica. Although there are many people who know this, but not many, it happens that Alexander is just one of them.

Zepez's expression was very unsightly. He looked gloomy at Alexander and looked at the meaning of Alexander's words.

"The Ottomans may have deliberately seduce our reinforcements," Alexander looked at the king and found the frowns of Ladislas II, and he continued. "They know we must go to the encirclement of Denbuvica." , So it ’s enough to siege Dembweca to lure us into their encirclement, which is the purpose of Ottoman, and then ... "Alexander looked at the two people who were not very good-looking" calmly took us Destroyed outside the city of Dembrica, I can guarantee that our people will never arrive in Dembrica because they are already waiting for us there. "

Ladislas II's fingers were tapping lightly on the armrests. He did not expect the Alexander General to suddenly say such words, which made the king feel both unacceptable and secretly annoyed.

It was originally because the Ottomans suddenly launched an offensive that disturbed his steps, because Alexander's words even burned in the heart of the king.

Zeppes was also unacceptable. Dembwica was so important to him that even if he knew vaguely what Alexander said might not be unreasonable, he was even more difficult to accept the terrible fate of Dembwica.

Alexander's words also aroused the dissatisfaction of other nobles. Many people stood up and refuted loudly, and some even whistled against Alexander.

Gompati, who was sitting behind Alexander, looked at Alexander. He felt that these people were too unreasonable, or too barbarous. Although they could n’t understand what most people were saying, they could make it from the sharp whistles and those people In the obvious mocking gestures, he could also feel that they were mocking and mocking.

What made Gompati and the Montina officers next to him angry was that the MC had no intention to stop those clamors this time, which made those people shout even harder.

"coward!"

"Fancy nobleman!"

"Go back to your Rome, it's safer to hide under your mistress' skirt!"

Inexplicable curses may be ignored, but intelligible ridicule is even more embarrassing, and several Montina officers stood up unbearably.

Just as Gompati stepped forward to speak against those people, he suddenly heard a familiar "click" in the noisy and chaotic voice.

The long-term birth and death and accumulated battle experience made Gompati immediately realize that it was the sound of pulling the musket, which surprised him, but he did not wait for him to react. As the light beside him flashed, there was a thunderous muffled sound Suddenly sounded in the hall!

The smoke was so thick that Sophia raised a gunpowder over the muzzle of her head.

The clamor suddenly stopped for a while, and the hall was silent for a moment, and everyone looked at Sophia with a smoky gun in a stunned expression.

Looking at Sophia in armor with a musket, Alexander couldn't help but praise "Domineering" secretly in his heart, but then he saw the fierce look Sophia cast on him, and the musket in her hand also deliberately or unintentionally towards Alexander Moved.

This shot would n’t have been against me, Alexander raised an ominous guess, but looking at the Balkans who had n’t eased around him, he asked the same stunned Ladislas II Asked: "Your Majesty, do I have to go on?"

The king looked at Sophia with a blue face. He didn't expect Sophia to bring the musket into the conference hall, but he couldn't blame her in front of so many people.

"Count, if you are still just those opinions just now, I think I can save you some time."

Ladislas II looked ugly. He noticed that Zepez's face was not easy, which made the king feel that he was in agreement with Zepez at least in the matter of the siege of Dembovica.

Alexander noticed the impatience of the king, and he looked to the nobles who had just awakened from the gunshots and were whispering:

"Your Majesty, I know that Dembrica is important to Wallachia and everyone in this land, including Moravia and Greece, but because of this, I want to ask everyone here: you Who thinks it is necessary to solve the encirclement of Dembrica? "

As soon as Alexander's voice fell, the entire hall instantly fell into a strange silence.

Whether it is Ladislas II or Cepes, there is a dignified look on their faces at the same time.

Sophia looked around blankly. She didn't understand what happened to people suddenly, but watching the traces of ridicule hanging from the corner of Alexander's mouth, Sophia sat down slowly, she handed the rifle behind her, and at the same time Curious to look around from the king.

It is a seemingly insignificant question of who solved the surroundings of Dembrica, but the nobles attending the meeting realized that Alexander had just given them the most difficult question to answer.

No one knows the great significance of Dembrica to the Balkans, but because everyone knows the extraordinary status of this small town like a holy place, they suddenly realize that they are facing an awkward situation.

That is, no one wants others to be the savior of Dembrica.

The impact and honor of the great achievements of the siege of the Holy Land are enough to make everyone's heart move, but because this temptation is too great, no one can take the initiative to stand up.

Ladislas II's mouth was tightly looking at Alexandria. He didn't expect the Alexandria conference to directly raise this issue in public. He noticed that Cepes, who was sitting on the other side, was also very different. I know what the outcome of this meeting will be.

"We need to form an army," the king stood up slowly, his eyes first paused on Alexander's face, and then suddenly turned his head to look at Cepes. "Duke, I think you are in charge of this battle to save the Holy Land The most suitable."

Cepes looked at Ladislas II in surprise. He obviously didn't expect the king to give him such a huge, even subversive opportunity for the entire Balkan forces.

But he tried to suppress his excitement secretly, and stood up and bowed to the king.

"For the brothers of Saint Kirill!" There was an instant burst of cheers in the hall.

Amidst the cheers of the people, Gompati suddenly approached Alexander and whispered, "Sir, I found the whereabouts of those cannons."

Alexander was shocked. He didn't know why Gompati suddenly said this at this time, but he still turned his head slightly and asked, "Where?"

"You may not think of it," Gumpati pouted his lower lip. "Those cannons are in Demwica."
