Vol 6 Chapter 103: The changes brought by Gonzalo
"9 ... thousand people?"
Camille's faint voice came from his throat. He straightened his waist vigorously and looked at the opposite hand with a slightly suspicious look.
"Yes lord, the head of the knights brought an army of 9,000 people," the man nodded affirmatively. "In addition to most of the Aragon army, there are less than 3,000 Catalan mercenaries. "
"That's really a strong army," Camuli said with a sigh. "Catalans, ah? Those guys who are very good at fighting. I have seen them in France. Those people are French. People work and fight for the British. Wherever they go, they often leave nothing behind. Those people sometimes feel like barbarians. "
"Now they have arrived in Sicily." The helpers whispered a little helplessly. "But Gonzalo arranged them in the military camp that the governor outside the city had prepared, but I didn't know how long they would be honest. After all, for those Aragonese Sicily is really rich, they can hardly resist the temptation. "
Camueli nodded in favor of this sentence.
Although it may seem like exile to Sicily for many Aragonese nobles, they cannot but admit that this errand makes them hate but full of temptations, especially for some who are no longer in the court. For climbers, wealthy Sicily is the best place for them.
The prosperity and wealth here are not comparable to those of the cities on the Iberian Peninsula. As for the intoxicating great masterpieces of art, they are not concerned by the Iberians, but even so, the luxurious Romanesque life is even in a religious atmosphere. Castile is also talked about.
In the eyes of the Iberians, Italy is obviously a dreamland full of gold and gemstones. Even people like Gonzalo, when he entered Rome, were once confused by the amazing prosperity of Rome. Forget to linger.
Now there are nearly 10,000 Iberian buns all at once, as long as you think about Camuri, you can guess that Palermo may not be long before what kind of chaos it will face.
"Master, maybe we should remind the manor to be more alert," the butler standing by the side reminded Camellie, watching him raise his hand tremblingly, but the steward hurried over to help him. "I'm afraid there might be some who do not listen to discipline. The soldiers harassed the people in the manor. "
Camille waved his hand to make some chattering butlers shut, and then he looked down at the man who squatted down and knelt in front of him: "Listen, go to Osborne to find the tailor, tell him that maybe I will reconsider what he wants The style of the new dress prepared for me. "
There was no surprise in his men. He nodded silently and stood up to salute and walked away quickly.
Camille waved to the housekeeper again: "Go and see how my grandson is preparing. If possible, I want him to leave Palermo today."
Looking at the leaving housekeeper, Camille looked out at the brightly lit place in the distance of the dark night outside, where is the royal palace.
Although there were lights in the direction of the palace in the past, today's palace looks very lively and eye-catching. From afar, the dazzling lights of the day even illuminate the dark sky.
"It really looks like a big fire," Camuri said with a shriveled lips. He signaled the servant next to him to push the wheelchair to push him into the garden, and looked at the palace in the cold wind. Camuelli said vaguely. "Sometimes it's really hard to decide what to wear."
Osborne came to a shop carefully. This is a wool merchant's shop. Tailors often buy all kinds of fur materials they need here, so although Osborn seems to be a bit too cautious, the merchant is casual. Beckoned, when he approached, he lowered his voice and said, "I said that you don't need to look like this, even if someone follows you, they can't doubt everyone who meets you, but you are not comfortable with me now . "
"I'm just a tailor," Osborne said helplessly. "I haven't done this spiteful job, but this time I'm just here to bring you a message."
The businessman shrugged a meaning of ‘Go with you’, but after hearing Osborne ’s words, the businessman carefully confirmed and asked the buddy to greet the patron, and he quickly left the shop through the back door.
Osborne did n’t know how Alexander ’s men passed this information. Since the last time he spoke, he has never seen Alexander, nor heard any news about him, which made Osborne think that Alexander Has left Palermo.
Instead, Camuelli seemed to believe that Alexandria did not leave Palermo, at least not Sicily, so he sent someone directly to Osborne ’s tailor shop.
There was another person who believed that Alexander had not left Palermo.
Krian lost Alexander.
This was not what Klien had thought of.
He was hiding in the house near Alexander and the chamber of commerce where he was hiding. He was very familiar with this kind of thing, so he didn't think he would go wrong.
But it's just that this seemingly error-free surveillance made Clariant follow.
In the early morning of the next day, a lot of people came out of the chamber of commerce, most of them were similar in clothing, completely like a long-distance travel, most of them were wearing hats or headscarves, and under the large robes were either obvious or hidden With a weapon, such a dress will not cause too much doubt. Many businessmen will carry weapons to defend themselves, and some will even hire several armed guards.
Krian stared at these people, and he found that these people immediately dispersed into scattered actions immediately after leaving the chamber of commerce, just like strangers with completely different paths.
Batch after batch, as soon as the people left the chamber of commerce, they would split up, some would break up after walking out of the road, and some would simply part ways at the gate of the chamber of commerce. In the end, there were only a few people in the chamber of commerce. Dangling inside.
This made Clian somehow not knowing what to do.
He did not expect that the Alexandria Conference was so cautious, that this completely Huazhen zero approach made him wonder who to follow.
So he simply decided to stare at one of the small stocks by observing his luck. Even if he wanted to come, even if Alexander was not among these people, they would definitely gather again somewhere, so that as long as he stared at these people, finally Will find Alexander's whereabouts.
It only disappointed Clean that he had never thought that these people would finally arrive at a small fishing port outside Palermo, and then these people boarded the ship and left.
In this way, Clariant lost the clue to follow Alexander, which made him feel like he had grabbed a thread leading to the exit of the maze, but when he followed with full expectation, he finally found that the thread was halfway. broken.
But Clariant was only slightly depressed, and then calmed down again. He felt that it was impossible for Alexander to come to Sicily for such a whim, and then left inexplicably to do nothing, and then looked back when his men left The cautious actions are not like the troubles of being able to leave as soon as possible.
This allowed Clean to quickly determine that Alexander should still be in Sicily, and perhaps even put Palermo or at least somewhere nearby, and only then could explain why he was so careful.
Clariant soon discovered that he had overlooked one thing, that although some of the guests seemed to have left, some people remained in the Chamber of Commerce.
Those are the few Chamber of Commerce buddies, and Alexander is probably among them.
Krian, who thought of this, suddenly felt like he was being tricked into being a clown in the court, who played the ugly clown. It used to be like this in the monastery in Jiabu, and now it is like this.
Krian wanted to return immediately to see what was happening, but reason told him that it was too late to go back at this time, and the only thing he had to do now was to immediately find the place where Alexander was hiding again.
"Are you still in Palermo, don't you not leave Modillo before you leave?" Krian looked in the direction of the city and felt a little relieved.
As Crean guessed, Alexander did not leave the chamber of commerce at that time. He stayed there patiently and waited. There was no one else beside Schell. This made Schell once a little abnormal because of tension, which made Alexander have to put He sent to the warehouse to wait, so as not to be seen by the merchants.
Alexander didn't think his prudence was superfluous. The reason why Camille didn't betray him was probably because he still wanted to leave another way out for himself, or maybe just because he thought it was not the right time.
And Alexander did n’t think he would be more lucky than Charlie XII. After all, even Charlie XII had almost been planted in his hand because of a small mistake. Alexander would n’t think he would be completely Fortunately, he prefers to think that it is the result of prudence.
The manpower in the village outside the Bishop ’s Palace was that Alexander was gradually arranging for trade with Sicily before coming to Sicily, but some of these people knew why they wanted to come here to do business or settle, and some were purely for business. of.
Although the previous guards were not all sent back to Naples, Alexander did not let them go directly to the village after returning, but he was placed in a small mountain town not too far from here. This was done to prevent someone Being tracked and chased.
After almost all the people left, Alexander took Schell out of the chamber of commerce at noon. He walked on the street unhurriedly, sometimes introducing some of his familiar buildings to Schell .
Seeing that Shell was ready to fight because he saw patrols on the street, Alexander simply took no one else's attention to take off the saber around Shell's waist and threw it into the ditch on the roadside.
In Alexander's view, after making so many preparations, if he still had trouble because of some accidents, then he really can only admit that his luck is not very good, and at this time, even if there is a knife and Whatever it is, Schell may be a good warrior, even among the Balkans, but he is useless if he is really unlucky.
Fortunately, everything went well. They went out of the city without any worries, and then went to the village not far from the Bishop's Palace. Here, there are several businessmen waiting for him who have some guesses about his identity.
When the message from Osborne was tossed and sent to Alexandria, it was already the second day of the Aragonese army landing in Sicily at noon.
The whole village is talking about the Aragonese. Some locals are uneasy and worried about the possibility of fighting. However, some people saw the opportunity, and some of them were aware of the flamenco purchase of food on the market before. Savvy businessmen are all scrambling to prepare for a big profit.
"Rethink the style of the clothes?" Alexander repeated Camille's words, smiling slightly ironically.
"That old man is an old fox." Sher muttered angrily, seeing Alexander look over, and the Balkans bowed their heads in a panic.
"You don't have to be so careful, but you are right. Camusli is indeed a very cunning person. He can still be in Sicily at such a high age, not because others are stupid than him, but because he is smarter."
Alexander agrees with Schell's evaluation of Camuelli, and thinks that after the **** night, Camuelli could seize the power of Sicily instead of just being a puppet as some people intended. This person is definitely not simple.
Now because of the arrival of the Aragon army, he was shaken, and it was obvious that he wanted to reconsider his alliance with Alexander. This is not beyond Alexander's expectations. On the contrary, if he behaves too firmly, it will be abnormal.
"The earl was detained long enough, and now that Gonzalo has arrived in Sicily, there is probably nothing more to worry about for Ferdinand."
Alexander pondered the current situation. Perhaps when Ruosha declared war, many people only saw the dispute between the two Sicily, but Alexander saw more, and now his eyes have inevitably turned to the Iberian Peninsula .
Flamenza wants to use Count Modillo to eliminate Castile for Ferdinand, and before that the arrangement of the count in Castile has actually set off a major cleansing on the grounds of punishment of heretics. , Such two huge storms can imagine what kind of chaos will bring in Castile.
This is probably what Ferdinand hopes to see. If the trouble caused by the Earl may have been only fueled by him, then Flamenza's actions may have been inspired by him.
And Gonzalo may be more or less an obstacle for Ferdinand to do this. After all, such a storm will definitely involve many people related to Gonzalo, and his reputation in the Castilian army is in The influence of the nobility, especially the favor of Queen Isabella, will cause Ferdinand to eliminate all kinds of trouble.
But now that Gonzalo is here, then Ferdinand can do it without hesitation, and for him, there was no need to use the excuse of Count Modillo ’s confession, then the count himself was right He also lost its role.
"We have to rescue the earl as soon as possible, otherwise it may be too late." Alexander said looking towards the city of Palermo.
Looking at the faintly visible city under the mountain, he could not help shaking his head and sighing.
The meeting with Gonzalo a few years ago gave Alexander a bold idea, which was to reveal to him the life of Qiao Modi Luo, and then to attract and recruit this current military in the name of the bloodline of King Enrique. genius.
But later think about Gonzalo ’s favor with Queen Isabella. Alexander could n’t help but worry that Gonzalo would be “After I ’ve been exposed, Gonzalo would be“ the wind and water that Lao Tzu now mixes is based on Her Majesty ’s cultivation appreciation. I have n’t eaten your dad a bit, and my brother killed him! "Such an unlucky reaction, if that was the end, he could only use tragedy to describe it.
"No, can it really only be seen on the battlefield ..."
Alexander thought helplessly that he really did n’t want to face Gonzalo on the battlefield. When he thought of Gonzalo ’s well-trained model army and the Spanish phalanx that he later became known on the European continent, even Just think about it and feel a little headache.
"Perhaps there are other ways, at least not for the time being against this" great Gonzalo "."
Alexander thought secretly, he was not afraid of Gonzalo, but now it was clearly not the time.
Gonzalo is indeed a difficult and powerful opponent, but after all, he is just a military commander. His terrible and threat comes from the battlefield, but if he does not need to confront him on the battlefield, or at least try his best to avoid it?
Alexander grasped this possibility.
But the immediate task now is to rescue Count Modillo.
After observing these days, Alexander had already got a general understanding of the situation about the royal palace. What surprised him a little was that he was actually married to the daughter of the former palace, Gomez, which reminded him of the original Mrs. Gong Xiang, who escaped from the robbers with a musket decisively on Bloody Night, said that Alexander thought she left him with a deeper impression than her unlucky husband.
It's just that the lady of the Gongxiang family still seemed to be holding in her mother's arms that year, now ...
Thinking of this Alexander can only sigh this year.
For the rescue of Earl Modillo ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Alexander already has a plan, but this requires Osborne's help.
Originally, the addition of Camuelli could make this matter smoother, but now Camuelli obviously wants to temporarily look at the limelight before betting, so Alexander decided to go it alone.
Alexander, who had thought about this, told Schell to let Osbourne tell the Osborne to prepare for the action, and at the same time, an unexpected visitor came to Osborne's tailor shop.
"I didn't expect it to be you. It's been a long time since I saw my wife."
"I haven't seen you for a long time," the widow of the former Miyazaki Gomez smiled and walked into the tailor's shop. "I came with the army of the head of the knight. I came to look at my daughter this time. New clothes. "
Osborne was a little bit blinded to see Mrs. Mae Miyazaki standing at the door.
