Conquer the Dawn of Heaven
Vol 6 Chapter 41: Leading Party of Naples
The fact that the queen was hijacked away gave Alfred a feeling of being completely blinded by this unexpected accident. Obviously the queen's power in the court far exceeded Alfred's imagination, and when he thought of it, he was in the palace. There are also remnants of the rebels, and they are likely to have their throat cut in the middle of the night or a glass of poisonous wine when they are eating. Alfred becomes a bit irritable because of tension and fear.
And the fact that someone publicly led the rebellion was annoying Alfred.
Everyone is busy, the palm seal officer is trying to maintain the contact between the palace and the outside, and Count Modillo is busy to maintain the entire country. Instead, Alfred becomes idle for a while, and he is worried about possible It will be secretly calculated to hide in the room all day and refuse to come out. At this time, someone called out "please ask the princess to come out to preside over the overall situation".
This proposal was approved by unexpectedly many people, not only in the court, but also the civilians in the city joined in after hearing the proposal. Everyone seemed to be discussing this matter at the same time. Someone once again mentioned Zuosha's bravery in the Balkans.
At the same time, stories about Forli's tigress began to circulate among people. Some people have already begun to compare Russa with Caterina Sforza, but perhaps because of their preference for the princess of their own country, Naples generally believes that Russa It is much better than that of Nafli ’s tigress.
This call finally reached Alfred, and he immediately agreed to the proposal.
In order to remind the official, Alfred took the Earl Modillo and the handprinter to the room where Zuosha was imprisoned, and made the Earl care a little, but he noticed that the outside guards were all replaced by Balkan hunting guards. Seeing that Alexander did not even use the Agris this time, the count sensed his determination and anger.
Obviously, Alexander was silently warning that if the same thing that brought Alfred closer to Zuosha happened before, he might have done everything.
The count was surprised by Alexander ’s unexpectedly strong exclusivity, but Modillo saw another thing that seemed to be worth using. Obviously, Rusha was unique in Alexander ’s mind. It may become a more special relationship between them.
In the witness of the two court ministers, Alfred first announced a satisfactory pardon for Russa's previous unintentional offense, and then immediately announced that his wife and he would manage the affairs of the kingdom.
When Ruo Sha appeared in the main hall of the palace, cheers came from the court officials. Although this sound was not very loud, it had different meanings in different people's ears.
The palm seal officer was frightened because he had only regarded Count Modillo as the person he needed to follow, but now it seemed that he was really embraced, but it was the count ’s niece. Alfred was somewhat jealous when he was happy. Unexpectedly, his wife's reputation seemed to be much higher than him, which made him feel strange.
The most complicated mood is Count Modillo, who can clearly feel that Ruosha is leaving him at a rapid rate. On the contrary, her relationship with Alexander is clearly beyond his guess. The count even has a feeling. The siblings may unite against him in the future.
When Rusha sat in the queen ’s seat for the first time, she did n’t show any nervousness at all. Her eyes were firm. Perhaps it was the trip to the Balkans and the fighting there that really opened her eyes. Now in the palace of Naples This kind of seemingly fanciful and strange, in fact, in her eyes has become a little naive and clumsy court games, it is difficult to make her nervous and excited.
"I will be fair and humble to exercise the power belonging to the royal family of Naples for my husband, but the first thing I have to order now is to find the queen ’s whereabouts immediately. I am worried that those rebels will hurt her because I firmly believe that the queen will not Those who participated in such conspiracy activities used the name of the queen before to protect her majesty from being coerced by them. His Royal Highness had to order her to temporarily hide in a safe place, and now the queen was hijacked, which is absolutely intolerable "When it comes to this, Shaosha's eyes swept over all the people, and suddenly he raised the tone and ordered aloud," so I announced that martial law would be imposed on Naples City from now on. To find out the whereabouts of the queen, I granted the military the privilege to search all places. "
The situation in the city was suddenly tense. More and more Kosenza and Montina troops appeared in the city. Looking at the army that walked on the street and almost searched from house to house, the Neapolitans could only bear the anger and endure the anger. Harassment.
It was just that the people who hijacked the queen seemed to be prepared. They seemed to disappear from the sky. They let the army almost turn the whole city upside down and failed to find out where they were.
The news of Ruo Sha Linzheng was sent by someone in the afternoon of the next day. Looking at the contents of the letter from Count Modillo, Alexander wrote a reply after pondering it a little.
"Adult, I'm glad that all your plans have been very successful in achieving our goal. Now we can say that we have mastered Naples. I will quickly quell the rebellion and return because French talent is our biggest enemy from now on, but I To remind you, do n’t forget Ferdinand of Aragon, who also has great ambitions for Naples. I firmly believe that he is as eager to reunify Sicily as you are. Unfortunately, he does have such strength. "
Alexander felt that it was time to remind Earl at this time, whether it was to prepare for the double oppression from France and Aragon that he would face later, or to hope that the Earl would be aware of the current enemy without any cracks. , This reminder is very necessary.
He could feel the indifference from Count Modillo between the lines of the letter. As for why, Alexander looked at a house that was tightly enclosed not far away and smiled.
The house was a bit far away from where his army was stationed. A group of Balkan soldiers encircled the house tightly and it was the Balkans Sher who led the soldiers.
Queen Naples was imprisoned in this house!
It was Schell who performed this task, and the whole process of hijacking the queen made him surprised when he returned, but when he reported to Alexander, Alexander just smiled inadvertently.
The free trade zone started in Naples, but why is Naples not so noticeable as the latecomers in the entire trade zone?
Pisa, Rome, Frankfurt, and Rotterdam, these places are rapidly attracting the attention of the latecomers as early pioneers in the trade zone. People hope that their cities will become as glorious as these places, but why is it not there? Naples?
This seems to be unfair to Naples, but in fact it is because Naples has become a city in a trading area, and every noble here, every businessman, even every civilian and family are more or less free traded The influence of the district, their lives, everything about them permeates the relationship with the trade zone, and the price of all this is that the wealth obtained here is almost silently used in the permeable Every corner.
"We bought this kingdom," Alexander wrote straightforwardly in his letter. "Next, we only need to make those people who refuse to admit this fact understand their situation."
The Queen ’s rebellion was indeed somewhat unexpected, but it also gave Alexander a lot of relief. The enemy hiding in the dark is not as easy to deal with as in the bright, but there are so many people who support the Queen. Alexandria was very surprised.
Especially now that they are dealing with this man named Normezi, he made Alexander notice that it was not his army, but his identity.
This person is a distant relative of the queen, which is not really important, but he is also a descendant of the Trastamara family, which can not help but attract Alexander's attention.
The Trastamara family is today the royal family of Aragon, and this Normezi is also a distant relative to King Ferdinah of Aragon.
Alexander did n’t believe that there was no Ferdinand ’s manipulation and shadow behind it. According to history, Ferdinand would soon use the excuse of the French invasion to send troops to Naples, then he would stop Frederick, and then two years later he would Will again drive away the French to monopolize Naples, Alexander felt that if he instigated and used the Naples nobility to create a rebellion before this, this is not new.
As for the Queen's role in this rebellion, Alexander was a little curious, but had no intention to think about it.
Interestingly, the place where Normezi ’s rebels were based was actually the holy place where Alfonso II had hurriedly passed the throne to his short-lived son Ferdinand in order to escape the French. John Abbey.
When he heard the news, Alexander couldn't help but feel surprised by the wonder of fate.
St. John ’s Abbey is less than 20 miles from the city of Naples, because it was built on a stone mountain that is not high, but the terrain is dangerous, and because the monasteries of the past have feared that they have not stopped and repaired because of fear of wars, so this stone-based The monastery became a real military fortress.
There is a wide road from the bottom of the mountain to the gate of the monastery, but because the mountain is steep, it is impossible to open the army. The narrow terrain provides the guardian with a good opportunity to destroy the enemy, as long as the prison Firmly restrain the intersection not far from the monastery, no matter how many troops will be unable to play because they cannot expand.
Behind the monastery is a steep mountain slope, almost entirely made of stone. The steep **** is the terrain that only goats can climb.
Count Julipe Normezi was originally a person who was not very conspicuous among the Naples nobles, and according to Count Modillo, the reason why Normezi rebelled was due to the grievances and grievances with the Cosenza family in the early years This made him worry that Ruosha would be retaliated against once she became queen.
So after hearing the news of the riot in the palace, the count quickly made the most favorable decision for him at this time.
"That means we can't expect that person to surrender by himself," Alexander said to the Balkans in a circle while looking at the map. "The only way now is to capture St. John's Monastery."
Aufrei frowned tightly when he looked at the map. He was no longer the nephew of the stonemason. After many battles, he thought he was a war expert, so he only realized that he wanted to take it by looking at the map. Going to the monastery may be more trouble than you think.
The almost impossible formation formed the biggest barrier for the enemy, and according to the news heard, before hearing the arrival of the Montina army, the rebels who had retreated into the monastery had brought a lot of food into the monastery, which meant that It is not so simple to force the enemy to surrender with a long siege.
And they all know that the rebels can afford it, but they have no time to delay it here.
Alexander had to admit that Normezi ’s move was quick. He announced that he had supported the queen and had ordered a large amount of food to be transported into the St. John ’s Abbey. This made Alexander could n’t help but guess that this person might not have been true from the beginning. The plan was to save the queen as he said, but he was preparing to stick to the monastery.
Isn't it just a bit stupid to do this?
As long as people with a little common sense know that it is risky or even stupid to stay in a fortress without isolation and retreat, because no matter how strong the fortress is, it will sometimes be broken, and no matter how much food is hoarded, it will always be eaten up unless it is able to With the help of foreign aid, otherwise people will often choose not to take the initiative to shut themselves off in a lonely fortress. Is Normezi a stupid person?
Alexander thought he was clearly not.
From all the signs, everything that this person has done is actually prepared in advance, and even the food he transported into the monastery will not be able to be hoarded in a moment and a half, so thinking of Alexander is almost certain. The queen ’s rebellion may have just caught up with this excuse, and this person should have been prepared long ago.
The news that Sher brought back about the Queen ’s hearing of Normez ’s rebellion seemed quite unexpected and quickly proved Alexander ’s speculation, which made Alexander unable to figure out secretly. How could this Normez suddenly rebel, and still In such a seemingly foolish way.
Perhaps, this man is not stupid, but what is he waiting for?
As the thought flashed through his head, Alexander suddenly seemed to have grasped an important clue.
Who is he waiting for, or what is happening?
Once thinking about this, Alexander ’s thoughts could not help but guess with all the signs of the matter. When he thought that this Normezi was also a descendant of the Trastamara family, he suddenly thought that one of them was always ignored. key.
Now all of Italy is attracted by the impending French invasion, but Alexander knows that in this invasion war that actually continued from Charles VIII, it was actually Ferdinand in Aragon that really benefited later .
When the army of Louis XII was galloping in northern Italy, Ferdinand sent his army to support Naples, and then he took the opportunity to abolish Frederick and the French to divide Naples. He became enthusiasm with the French again, and finally drove away his partner, who swallowed Naples alone, which was already a thing in the future.
So is it possible that Normezi already knew Ferdinand's plan in advance, or even that he was Ferdinand's leading party in Naples?
Perhaps he had already prepared to launch a rebellion, but because of Frederick ’s sudden illness and the Queen ’s rebellion, he gave him a more justified reason. He could even take it for granted as a member of the Trastamara family Asking Aragon to send troops to intervene and take over Naples, if so, then he really took a good chance at this time.
Having figured this out, Alexander couldn't help but feel a bit heavy. He didn't expect that when he was going to seek Naples, everyone else had the same idea. This lesson made him helplessly blame himself in his heart. Obviously a series of victories made him some Gone with the wind, so that there were people under their noses who were moving their hands and feet without realizing it.
"This Normezi is not easy," Alexander sighed heartily, thinking about being able to deceive Russa's eyes in Naples. This Normezi is indeed a vigilant mind.
"Prepare to attack the monastery," Alexander gave the order. He looked at the Balkans who were preparing down the hillside, and signaled to Sher, who was not far away, that he came over and whispered, "Sher, pay attention when you go back. Release the queen when you order, do you have to do it immediately no matter what happens? "
"Understood Lord." Xer nodded vigorously. Although he did not know why the Lord had let her go after hijacking Queen Naples, it did not require him to think about it. Just do it.
"Normezi, let me see if you really look so smart." Alexander looked at the monastery and whispered.
Normezi is a tall but strong fat man. His early experience in wars made him more courageous and tough than many nobles, only because he always stayed in his small territory all day, so although he Like the royal family of Naples, they all belonged to the Trastamara family, but he was not a person of attention.
But no one thought that this person would suddenly rebel.
The St. John ’s Abbey was a little crowded because of the sudden increase in numbers of people. Apart from the army, Normezi also brought himself and some important family members into the monastery ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ It can be seen that Normezi is ready to keep the fortress for a long time from the beginning.
The presence of the Montina army was somewhat disturbing to the people in the monastery. Although the monastery was lined with high walls, the reputation of the Montina army was really great, at least the defeat of this army that had not been heard so far.
"That Gombre didn't fail because I didn't meet me," Normezi sat at the table and ripped the meat off the drumsticks. "St. John is the oldest and strongest abbey in Naples, built from the French. In the 400 years now, St. John has never been captured. "
"But lord, how long do we have to stick to it?" One person asked with a little worry. "We will always finish our food one day. If the Montina people have been under siege, we will eventually fail."
"This kind of thing won't happen," Normezi looked at his men with confidence. "Listen, the French are coming, that Gombray can't take care of us, and something will happen soon, That is something you can never guess. "
Normezi was clearly confident until someone suddenly reported to him that a woman who claimed to be a queen was calling outside the monastery, which immediately solidified the smile on his face.
