Conquer the Dawn of Heaven
Vol 6 Chapter 102: Gonzalo
When Gonzalo's fleet appeared off the coast of Sicily, there was a strong sea breeze.
This subtropical storm from the Atlantic Ocean pushed Aragon ’s fleet sailing all the way from Cartagena Port in the southeast of the Iberian Peninsula towards the Mediterranean Sea. It was originally thought that there would be a four-day voyage, in fact only After 3 days, the watchman on board saw the outline of Sicily from afar.
This gust naturally blew into Sicily, and then someone brought back the news that the Aragon fleet appeared.
This made Flamenza help to see the gust as a good sign. Although he knew that this idea might be somewhat pagan, but he was more willing to think of it as God helping Sicily.
Although the Naples declared war, there was still no movement, which made Flamenza's little worries from the beginning have gradually eased a lot, and now that the arrival of Gonzalo makes him feel that the Naples' declaration of war is a joke. .
As for Count Modillo, Flamenza did not let him suffer. Apart from having no freedom, Count can even read books at will, or talk about life with a beautiful maid.
In fact, Flamenca regarded Modillo as a treasure. In his view, the Earl of Naples was even more important than his nephew queen.
Flamenza hopes to get a list, or to make a list. The names on these lists are almost all from Castile, and some of them are influential ministers around Queen Isabella. And the crime that Flamenza found for those on the list was an attempt to destroy the rule of the twin kings of Castile and Aragon.
Flamenca considers himself a man who understands the king's thoughts very well, and there is only one king in his mind, that is Ferdinand II.
As for Queen Isabella, Flamenza regarded him as Ferdinand's wife, the queen of the king, but only the queen.
The Iberian Peninsula only needs one king instead of two. This is the idea of many Aragonese, including Flamenza, and they all know that this is actually the idea of the king.
Using Modillo to seize the opportunity to cleanse the many ministers of Castile, this is the idea of Flamenza, so in his opinion, Modillo is really too important, and I hope that I can always squeeze from him. To useful things.
When Flamenza told Modillo that Gonzalo ’s army had arrived in Sicily, the governor had a triumphant smile on his face. He was not just reminding Modillo that he would die and be saved by the Neapolitan heart. , But also to remind him of the powerful power Ferdinand has in Iberia.
"Tell me everything or be punished. I think that would be too ugly. After all, it would be an insult to use that kind of torture in your capacity, so for all of us to be better off, it ’s not very good to say all those you know All right? "Flamenza said to Modillo bitterly, because he found that Modillo seemed to be a bit of a foreign worker recently, which made him feel the need to remind.
"You mean the people you want to know, aren't you?" Modillo only slightly whispered when he saw a deep smile on Flamenza's face. "It doesn't matter to me, but you don't think so If you let Queen Isabella know that you might not have a good ending? "
"I'm loyal to the king, and of course to Her Majesty the Queen," Flamenza said dismissively. "We all know that the combination of Castile and Aragon is not so smooth. Some people don't want to watch When the king ’s husband and wife are happy and happy, I think it ’s the duty of a faithful officer to remove these people from them. As for who you should identify, I think you can refer to this list. ”
Flamenza put a piece of paper full of his name in front of Modillo. When he saw Modillo nodded or shook his head while looking at the name, he sometimes raised his eyebrows and expressed interest. With a "hmm", Flamenza waved to the maid waiting outside, beckoning her to come in and wait for Lord Earl.
"I want the people above to disappear from behind the king and the king, at least some of them can no longer stay with her." Watching the maid take off his coat for Modillo, and then help him take off his boots, Ph. Lomensa slowly turned around and walked out of the door. As he closed the door, the sound inside was isolated in the room.
The price of grain on the Sicilian market suddenly fluctuated. When someone reported to Alexander that the governor's government had ordered a large amount of grain on the market, Alexander made a low "Oh" sound.
"Sir, what happened?" Schell asked strangely. He noticed that Alexander's expression was calm, but his casually tight shoulders showed that he seemed to be very concerned about the matter.
"The Aragonese army is here, and Flamenza is collecting military supplies for the Aragonese."
Alexander went to the window and looked at the dark clouds that swept the sky with the wind that couldn't stop blowing. The current Atlantic Ocean should be a choppy and violent wave.
I do n’t know if the Amerigo Vespasi ’s fleet has left Malaga. It ’s the starting point for Colombia ’s first trip to the New World, but this time a Florence called Amerigo Vespasi People have seized the right to discover and name the New World from Columbus.
Columbus didn't know that he had reached a whole new world until his death. An Eurasian explorer who had been countless thousands of years eager to discover, but in the end only he realized the miracle of discovering a new world, so this continent is destined to be It ’s called America, and only a small piece will be named Colombia.
Alexander thought of these things that seemed to have nothing to do with the situation at hand, but he didn't mind the concerns of his followers.
This is a small village not far from Palermo, near the hillside of the Bishop's Palace.
The village is built on the mountain, and the scattered houses are ups and downs with the mountain. From the height, you can see a yellow-brown roof covering each other, and the alleys and streets under the eaves are always covered by a shadow. day.
However, if you are in it, you will know that the feeling under the distance is wrong. Because the house is high and low, there will always be a window to see the distance, and even the vague sea.
The strong sea breeze came from these windows facing the sea. The wind was very cold and fierce, and the windows blew loudly.
"Sir, should we leave Sicily?" After thinking about it for a long time, Schell finally courageously whispered, saying that he found that since the earl arrived in Sicily, he seemed to be rather eager to rescue Count Modillo. , Especially since the tailor Osborne asked for a while and then talked to the count alone for a long time, the count seemed to give up the idea,
Now that I heard that the Aragonese army had arrived in Sicily, Sher couldn't help but think about it. Perhaps this was a good excuse to let the Earl Lord leave the place as soon as possible, maybe the Lord himself thought so.
Alexander waved his hand to stop Schell's words, he could understand Schell's desire to leave Sicily earlier, but he didn't think he should leave at this time.
As for his seemingly unconcerned about the rescue of Count Modillo, it was because he suddenly discovered that Flamenca was doing something that he and the Count had always wanted to do but could not do for a while.
Castile is undergoing a major cleansing, which has given Alexander a deep understanding of the phrase "the enemy of the enemy is a friend".
At this time, Alexander even thought that if the best possible Earl Modillo would stay here in Flamenza, just think about the list of so-called conspirators fabricated by the governor, and then put the list on the list. When people were sent to the infamous religious tribunal, Alexander couldn't help but sigh at such figures as gurus. Sure enough, they are everywhere.
As for Gonzalo's arrival, Alexander was more concerned about how many troops he brought.
"People ask me to inquire, maybe we can know more," Alexander commanded, but looking at Shel's reluctance, he thought about it and still comforted the bodyguard. "Wait for Shel, maybe things will happen There are some new changes. "
"Are you saying that Her Majesty's army is going to attack Sicily?"
Sher was immediately excited. When he wanted to come to the queen, he would definitely send troops because he was not worried about the safety of ‘Brother’, so that he might be able to get rid of the adult from this adventure game.
Although the arrival of the Aragonese army seems to have made the situation much more severe, but once Schell apparently had not heard the name of Gonzalo, he naturally did not know how powerful this general was. Second, his personal experience in Bucharest Let the bodyguard have a mysterious confidence in his master ...
"Maybe it's not necessary." Alexander thought for a while and shook his head.
Gonzalo's fleet arrived in Palermo at night, because by this, his fleet first arrived on the southwest coast of Sicily, and then turned back northward, which was a bit delayed, but just like Florent Sa said to the people around him while waiting at the port that sometimes what really matters is not when it arrives, but whether the timing is right.
Gonzalo's army obviously came at the right time.
9,000 Aragonese troops, this is what Ferdinand II can do for all his belongings. Although the number of this army is not very large, but he received a power from Ferdinand II as compensation, that That is, the king allowed him to recruit wages for his army on the spot during the war without having to pay any income tax to the king.
In other words, Gonzalo ’s army could legally rob any area he occupied, and Ferdinand did not even specifically mention that areas such as the Vatican should be avoided, or those areas that the pope personally authorized under the papacy .
This is a fully permitted right, and it is for this attractive reason that Gonzalo has this right. After receiving 6,500 soldiers provided to him by Ferdinand, in a short period of time He recruited nearly 2,500 Catalan mercenaries, and after a short training he took the army to the ship and came to Sicily.
Flamenza was very happy with the arrival of Gonzalo. He knew that the leader of the eminent Santiago Knights was a distant relative of Queen Isabella. He also knew that the Queen had extraordinary trust in his brave general. The characteristics make Gonzalo actually exactly the representative of those who Flamenza wants to fight, but Flamenza is not stupid. He knows that it may be possible to move others, but to move this general , But not what he can do.
At least now he doesn't want to do this.
Today's Gonzalo is not only a close friend of Queen Isabella, but also a red man in the eyes of King Ferdinand.
The glory of defeating in Italy and expelling the French invasion made Gonzalo, who was already famous, even more famous in Iberia, and the appreciation of the double kings made his grace unparalleled. Lomensa wouldn't be stupid to provoke such a man in the limelight, otherwise his end would be miserable.
But Flamenza was very happy to see Gonzalo coming to Sicily, because it not only helped Sicily to strengthen the defense, but also that the nobles in Castile lacked the support of such a powerful person as Gonzalo It should become even more difficult for people to deal with.
"Perhaps the king also sent this general to Sicily for this purpose." Flamenza couldn't help but think about it, and the more he thought about it, the more he thought he guessed the king's plan. "Maybe the king's soon A secret order will be sent, but before that, let's think about how to calm down the grumpy general. "
Flamenza couldn't help but look at the man who had walked on the springboard steadily under the light.
The lights were a bit dim, but he recognized the distinctive face.
The originally large chin appeared very prominent, two beards on the sides of his lips flicked as he stepped, and Gonzalo's long face appeared in front of Flamenza.
"I'm glad to see you again, dear leader." Flamenza knew that Gonzalo liked to call him the title of the head of the Knights of Santiago, but it was not important in comparison to his duke's family title.
"I am also very pleased to meet you. Everyone is talking about you no matter whether it is in Zaragoza or anywhere else. People say you are now the Vice King of the Kingdom of Sicily."
Gonzalo made a grimace to Flamenca, and then before the Governor had awakened from the shock caused by his words, he slammed the flamenco's unhealthy shoulder and said loudly, "Okay Friend, tell me what welcome good things I have prepared for me, wine, food, and beauty. It ’s not enough to lack one. "
Looking at Gonzalo's smiling face, Flamenza's original heart was slowly released. He laughed and covered up the fright that had just been received by those words, and enthusiastically invited Gonzalo to the palace.
"Like the leader you said ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ wine, food and beauty, these are prepared for your arrival." Flamenza said with a smile.
"That's really great."
Gonzalo first whistled frivolously to express his satisfaction, and then his expression suddenly dropped, as he raised his arm and swung down violently, a heavy footstep suddenly sounded from the deck of the seaboat behind him!
Flamenza couldn't help but look around in the dark. In the dark he saw a team of soldiers walk down the springboard from the boat, the head of the dock shook, and more and more soldiers lined up.
At night, the flashes of armor and weapons flickered one after another, and at this moment a force of pressure was spread all over Palermo.
"Aragon's army." Flamenza sighed and blurted out.
"No," Gonzalo standing aside sneered. "This is my army."
