Conquer the Dawn of Heaven
Vol 5 Chapter 97: Great Battle (10)
The Ottomans are waiting for them.
Cepes believed that his judgment was correct, or that of Alexander.
Judging from the situation on the battlefield, Zeppes soon discovered some rather strange phenomena, which made him more confident about the enemy's intentions.
When Moore ’s feint attack finally attracted the attention of the Ottomans, their army moved towards Bulkrcani, but once they left, there was a wide enough gap. Zepes took his army. Quickly set off in the direction of Bulklani.
Buklcany is the last fortress along the river near Dembuvica. Because it is located on a reef protruding into the channel by the river, the fortress was built irregularly, but along the reef The terrain formed a vague triangle.
The fort has two sides facing the river, and the other side is facing the bank. Two fortified turrets are built on two walls facing the fort on the river, and a few statues are placed on one side of the bank. Bronze artillery mounted on a rough wooden stand instead of a dedicated gun mount like the one on the river.
The calibers of these artillery are not large, some are not much larger than the eagle artillery, but because of the terrain, the side of the Buklcany fortress facing the river bank can directly threaten the fortress, only through a thick forest, and then through It ’s not a big road.
This created favorable conditions for the people of Buklcany fortress to concentrate their firepower, and because Buklcany also had to provide grain silos for thousands of people in Dembrica, the side of the fort facing the river also had A seat is recessed inside the fortress and leads directly to the small pier on the river.
But now the gate of this small pier and the waterway on the river has been closed, and there are many people standing on the fort wall facing the shore.
People looked worriedly at the billowing smoke from time to time in the distance from the woods. They knew that two armies were cruelly fighting under the smoke, but they were unable to tie up their busyness, and the people of Bulkartani knew that they were actually themselves. It is also a nail in the eyes of the Ottomans, at least their grain depot can cause a lot of trouble to the Ottomans.
The city of Denbuvica is not large. The total number of men, women and children in the city is less than 3,000. However, because it has been a sacred place in the Balkans for too long, there are often Saints Cyril brothers who will come here from far away. Pilgrimage in front of the tomb, and perhaps because of the current turbulent situation, people are more eager to get comfort from the faith, so there have been many pilgrimage people.
Perhaps because of the call of the Saint Cyril Brothers ’sacred site, some pilgrims chose to stay. They formed different churches of different sizes in Dembwica. Some dozens and some only a few, but hundreds of them There are also great churches in Dembuica, and there are still two.
One of them is the famous “Dragon Knights” in the Balkans. All of this Knights are so famous because there is a very famous member among them. His name is Vlad III, the ancestor of the legendary vampire. .
After his death, Vlad III was placed in the cemetery of the church of Dembwica, and besides the cross and the angel statue, he also guarded his comrades and friends during his lifetime.
The Dragon Knights are one of the two largest denominations in Dembuica, and they are also a semi-armed denomination. The members of this denomination believe that God chooses and tests them and wants them to prevent the pagan invasion of the Ottomans. At the same time, they also firmly believe that a firm belief in God can allow them to gain unimaginable power.
Although the number of these religious groups is different, they all have very firm beliefs. In addition, because they have been stationed in Dembrica for many years, they have a feeling of not inferior to the residents of the city. When I heard that the Ottoman army arrived, those teachings The members of the regiment immediately asked the city officials to allow them to arm in order to defend the holy land. While the officials were still hesitating whether they needed to do so, some of the most radical denominations had begun to look for blacksmiths and workers everywhere to build fortifications for them. Weapons needed.
The Dragon Knights and another sect called Yixinhui, relying on the wealth they have gathered from the members of the sect, not only quickly armed themselves, but also began to vigorously give some residents and people worried about the city ’s fall. Other small denominations distribute weapons. For a time, Dembrica was full of soldiers with all kinds of weapons. In this way, Dembrica looks less like a religious holy place than a messy barracks.
However, this gave the defenders of Dembuica some confidence. They believed that as long as Bucharest could send reinforcements in time, they would be able to defend the city.
It is just that the joining of these denominations has indeed strengthened the defense of Dembuica, but another problem has posed in front of them. That is, the food that Dembuica can provide cannot support so many people.
These denominations do not usually buy food from Dembuica, because these denominations have some relationship with Bucharest Patriarchate. Most of them still buy food from Bucharest.
But now, Dumbuvica is in danger of being surrounded, and obtaining food from the river's grain depot in Buklcany has become the hope of the Dembucha people.
As for how long Bukrcany can last, it is not time to consider now.
The Ottomans obviously knew this too, so their left wing separated a team to advance towards Bulkirani, and a large number of siege equipment were also transported towards Bulkirani.
Whether it was Dembuica or Bucharest, they immediately realized that the Ottomans were to first occupy or destroy the food supply base of Bulkrani.
The people of Buklcany are equally nervous. They have a small number of defenders. At least they are alone in the face of the large number of Ottomans. Although the terrain of Buklcany is still favorable, and the grain storage in the castle It is enough to support a town with thousands of people, such as Dembrica, for several months, but they still know that if there is no reinforcements to arrive in time, the fate of the city will eventually be awaited.
Unless they are willing to abandon the fortress and evacuate Bulkani from the river, but if such a grain depot will fall into the hands of the Ottomans.
"It's the man of Cepes," an officer whispered next to the guard of Bulklani. Seeing that the beard of the guard shivered slightly, the officer pointed slightly under the wall of the fort. "These people all came from him The team was broken up by the Ottomans, and they made it clear that they were under the Grand Duke of Wallachia. "
"Does he claim to be the Grand Duke of Wallachia?" Shou Jiang hummed in his nose. "Vlad Zepez's son, his grandfather is an illegitimate child, and his father is a brutal guy, but now he Is it true that the Grand Duke of Wallachia claimed himself? "
"He is here to help us," the officer said with some embarrassment. "We need reinforcements, otherwise we certainly have no way to resist the Ottomans."
The defender stretched out his hand and twisted his thick beard. Obviously the situation in front of him left him no choice. The appearance of Zeppes definitely gave the stubborn Bukrcany a glimmer of hope, but this did not make him feel good. stand up.
Cepes, Vlad's son, the former Grand Duke of Wallachia who lost his head ...
Keeping his head bulging, he knew why he was so nervous and uneasy. When he thought of Vlad III, he felt a deep tremor in his heart.
"He couldn't know who he was at first, right?" Shou Jiang suddenly whispered to the officers around him in a voice that only two people could hear. Although he said nothing, he knew that the other party would understand .
"No, actually we don't even know who did it, did we, at that time ..." The officer thought for a while and then used a word that he thought was appropriate. "It's messy, fighting everywhere, Everyone only cares about killing the people in front of them or saving their lives, who can control others. "
The general snorted slightly as if agreeing and responding, and then turned his head to look inside the fort wall.
"Will that Cepes come to Buklcany?"
Hearing the questioning officer nodded, and then glanced at the dark shadow under the fort wall.
"I heard yes," the officer looked back and looked at the smoke that still swelled outside. "They are going to free Dembuica."
The defender hesitated and finally said, "We need their help."
"I understand." The officer nodded, and then approached the guard to lower his voice and said, "But what if Cepes knows?"
"What can he know?" Shou Jiang suddenly asked in a stiff tone, "Is his father's death, you also said that it was so chaotic at that time, who will pay attention to other people's things, and many of Vlad's enemies are not, then Do you think he can know who was involved in the killing of his father? "
"But I heard that he found the guy who allegedly sold Vlad's head to the Ottomans, and then dried him alive into a corpse."
"The cruel people of the Cepes family," Shou Jiang cursed in a low voice, but still waved his hand. "Send someone to contact him. We need their help."
"But you know that he claimed to be the Grand Duke of Wallachia," the officer reminded softly. "If we ask him for help, it is equivalent to acknowledging his status ..."
"Now it is most important for us to defend against the Ottoman talents." The defender interrupted the officer with a slightly vicious tone. "Bukercani is now very dangerous, and if it falls in the hands of the Ottomans, it is against Denbu. Do you know what Vica and Bucharest mean? "
The officer's lips moved but he didn't say anything. He glanced worriedly outside the fort, and there was a haze of worry in his eyes.
Zepez ’s army moved quickly along a dry channel, which was slightly rugged. The channel was not wide and not deep. A large area of various green plants had grown under the channel. Going like a green band stretches forward.
Zeppes did not know how long he could deceive the Ottomans, or how long Moore could persist, so he could only do his utmost to order the army to cross the gaps in the lines of defense previously laid out by the Ottomans and move quickly in the direction of Bulklani.
It ’s just that Zeppes ’s current look is not good, or if Bukulcani ’s guard will watch it, he may find that the expressions on the faces of the two people are actually the same.
Indignant and unwilling, Zeppes always believed that he was much more forgiving than his father. Although he also admitted to inheriting the fierce personality in the family, he always felt that he was more like a politician than a father. .
But Zeppes now knows that the influence of the family is obviously huge, so his mood is also very complicated at this time.
Bukercany's defender was once his father's servant.
Zeppes has been secretly suspecting that the death of his father is related to many people, and that the guard of Buklcany will be one of them.
Zepes guessed this not because he did n’t find anyone who murdered his father, but because he did n’t find a man who murdered his father, but because it did n’t take long before his father died, that man became a prominent Buckle from an ordinary little noble. Keeper of the Chani Fortress.
The role of Bukrcany is undoubtedly very important. This place is regarded as the hub connecting Dembuica and Bucharest. Such a place was handed over to his subordinates after Vlad III ’s death. Zeppes couldn't help but wonder whether the man had actually loyal to his father before.
After all, Vlad III was ousted from the throne just after he inherited the throne of the Duke, and although he regained the title of Duke, the brutal and ruthless made him the enemy of everyone in this land.
When Vlad III died, his men were retaliated for following such a monarch, but among these people, only one of them was not only spared, but also suddenly inexplicably flew into the sky.
Rachemota.
Recalling the name Zeppes couldn't help but throb from the heart. When he decided to rescue Dembuvica, he thought of Bukrcany, or that person in the Bulkurcani fortress.
"His Royal Highness, we are not far from Buklcany." A follower shouted anxiously next to him. "The fork in front is the road to Dembuica."
Hearing the entourage's words, Zepez's heart burst into a sudden, he looked forward, and he saw two roads leading to different directions.
One leads to Denbuvica ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ and the other leads to Bukrcany.
Cepes took the mount and looked at the two roads, the expression on his face was fine and dark.
"Your Highness?"
The people around me hurriedly urged, at this time even the moment is extremely precious.
Zepez's chest could not hold his breath, and finally he pulled the reins with a sullen snarl: "Go to Dembwica!"
The Wallachia army continued to move forward. When the team stepped on the branch road leading to Dembrica, through the dense tree-topped gap, Zepez saw the tall fortress tower of Buklcany behind the woods in the distance.
"I will return."
Zepes didn't know who whispered to him, and then he squeezed the horse's belly hard, and the horse ran forward.
At the same time, in the lower reaches of the Dembwica River, after a series of contests, as Si Sugu said, there was no choice at all. The two sides finally gave up meaningless mutual temptation, and a fierce battle finally began.
