Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Europe in 1501 seemed destined to experience a turmoil.

The countries that are full of war and turmoil everywhere seem to coincide, waiting for a certain moment in confusion.

This moment is obviously from the Italian peninsula. In almost all the countries of the west of the European continent, troops are gathered on the battlefield here, and people are waiting for a result.

The determination of King Louis XII of France to wait so quickly to continue to carry out the unfinished business of the first king was unexpected, but the great power revealed by the Free Trade Union, which was previously regarded as a huge businessman organization, made the whole Europe is in the spotlight.

At the beginning of June, the Austrian army who rushed to the Italian battlefield after a rush of preparations finally joined the northern army of Rome Thesia at Casal Marchi on the west bank of the Mincho River at the junction of Venice and Rome Thesia.

The arrival of the Austrians obviously changed the situation on the battlefield subtly. Although Venice has always been cautious about the Austrians, the movement of the Austrian army has been greatly obstructed. However, for the French, a real from the left The threat has already emerged.

Lucrezia ’s unexpected refusal in Pisa was beyond the expectations of Louis XII. The idea that the diplomatic alliance could be successfully eliminated through diplomacy had been frustrated from the beginning, and the news from Rome was very unpopular. rest assured.

Although the agreement reached with Alexander VI only allowed Constantine to command the Pope's army to ensure that Rome was not occupied by the Naples, Old Rovere certainly would not give up this rare opportunity.

Although at this time it was actually very bad reputation to let his son come forward to stop the Naples army who is also a member of the Alliance, but Old Rovere cleverly used the name of Alexander VI to declare the Vatican in the name of the Pope instead of the father of Caesar. Infringed, at the same time announced the appointment of Constantine as the commander of the Pope Army, asking him to protect the security of the capital city of Christ.

Of course, Constantine accepted the appointment with pleasure. The abandonment of the city and the escape has already ruined his reputation to the point of invincibility. He still remembers that when he hurried to Ferrara, the locals used a kind of What look looked at him.

In those days he felt that he did not live in a palace belonging to his own territory, but in a place that was completely hostile. Even the servants were mostly far away from him.

He knew that these people were not necessarily angry at him for abandoning Milan, but more about what would happen to him if they faced such a crisis.

Constantine knew he had to do something to get out of this embarrassing situation, so when he arrived at the Pope's military camp in Pescia, outside Rome, the first thing he did was to see what happened to those troops.

Constantine had heard about Caesar's stern death, which made him a lot more careful, with a large number of guards, and ordered the troops that followed him to secretly prepare, Constantine entered the town.

Pescia is a typical suburban village and town. The large tract of land nearby suitable for growing grapes allows people in this place to live well by the vineyards. Looking at the solid stone houses on the roadside, Constantine wondered how to put it as soon as possible. These recalcitrant popes are in their hands.

He knew that his father was very disappointed with his escape. This time Old Rovere highly recommended him to take over as the commander of the Pope Army. It was hard to come by, and this is probably his last chance. By the way, even his father probably despaired him completely.

And the old Luo Weilei let him come to Rome has another meaning, that is to avoid meeting with Barrendi.

Obviously Barenti was so angry with Constantine that even Old Rovere knew about her daughter. Perhaps Barenti would really come to a six-person unknowingly because of his anger.

There was some unexpected silence in the town. Constantine looked up at the hot sun above him. In his mind, should n’t the Pope all be hiding in the town to avoid the sun at this time?

A soldier with two buckets and a few buckets came from afar, and when he saw Constantine and his party, he hurried to the side to hide.

"If you are a soldier, tell me where the army is." A follower beside Constantine asked on a horse.

Hearing this question, the soldiers raised their heads and split their mouths and smiled, showing a black and yellow rotten tooth.

"Of course it's time to do business, and you guys must be new here."

"Doing business?" Constantine asked, "Who went to do business, where did it go, and what business?"

Maybe it was because Constantine in his armor looked too majestic, maybe his question was too esoteric, listening to this question like a classic life problem Pointing his finger, he didn't know what he was talking about and dealt with it vaguely, and then suddenly pulled his **** off the pack horse with a whip, and then hurried forward.

Constantine looked at the soldier who ran away suddenly, and he only vaguely heard the word "Naples", which made him feel a little uneasy.

He knew the Queen of Naples, and he had wanted to marry Alexander, the beautiful and sighing half-sister, like Caesar, but now Caesar had already died in the hands of this woman, and he had to take over Caesar to deal with it. As a queen, Constantine felt nervous.

What surprised him even more was the scene he saw in the woods southeast of Pesha Town.

A large mess of scattered tents are randomly set up on the open space near the woods. These long tents with no curtains and only a sunshade are not used for occupants, but look more like a party.

This can be seen from the long table in the tent.

In the tent, a large group of people were arguing about each other. From the clothes on both sides, it can be seen that it is the Naples army and the Pope ’s army, but although their weapons have not left, they are mostly left aside. It is to prepare to copy the guy when necessary.

And now these people are noisy, but at the same time they grabbed the wine glasses on the table and poured them into their mouths. Some seemed to be noisy, and they hugged each other across the table, and then toasted to celebrate what the two parties reached. .

"What are you doing?" Constantine stared at this scene in the slightly low-lying open space. He waved his hand to stop the followers who tried to sound the horn to inform the Pope's soldiers, and then came down and walked toward the open space.

As we approached, the content of the noisy waves became clear.

Then Constantine discovered unexpectedly that the Pope Army, who should have been as vigilant as possible even though he had declared neutrality, had actually started a business with the Neapolitans.

Table salt, sugar, pepper and something called olive oil are bargaining everywhere. Everyone is shouting to be heads-up with each other because they can't talk, but then a new round of peeling starts.

Constantine walked slowly in the crowd. Although the arrival of him and his guard also caused a lot of commotion, more people did not pay attention to them, but still full of energy for a small bag of sugar or a The price of cans of olive oil is noisy.

A slightly better-dressed soldier approached him. He saw Constantine froze first, and then quickly walked a few respectfully salutes.

"Sir, I didn't expect you to be here."

"Do you know me?" Constantine glanced at this face, and it was strange to haven't seen it.

"I should have been in your army," the mercenary replied, but he did not go on to say his resume "Do you want me to report to the team officers for you?"

"No, I want to see for myself," Constantine rejected the proposal, but he let the mercenary walk with him in the camp. "What are you doing? What about those Naples?"

"We are doing business with them, these Naples are really rich," the mercenary said with envy. "We buy things that they can't use from them, and then we sell them, so at least we can Patch yourself. "

"Who allowed you to do this?" Constantine's face gloomed slightly, and he didn't expect to see such a situation. "Doesn't Queen Naple also care?"

"The queen doesn't seem to care about this," the mercenary shrugged disapprovingly. He looked at Constantine's gorgeous armor and swallowed. He hesitated and said, "Adult, if you can give me some reward, I can find it for you. Some really valuable and good sellers, they are all Naples aristocrats, and some are said to have done a lot of business at home. "

Constantine waved silently, and a pro immediately took out his purse.

Knowing that this is not his own chance, Constantine wanted to know more about what happened here.

Following the mercenary through this messy tent area, the tents in the front appeared to be neat and many appeared nearby.

Several seemingly decent mercenary officers came in and out of the tent, while Constantine saw people wearing Naples army-style uniforms coming out of it.

"Those Naples nobles are here, but I can't go in," said the mercenary, and then stopped.

Constantine nodded and continued to walk forward. When he walked to the door of one of the largest tents, he saw several people coming out of it.

The Queen of Naples and the second commander of the Pope ’s army, the enemies who were supposed to be on the battlefield, met awkwardly in this situation.

Constantine looked at the young and beautiful queen opposite, but the beautiful appearance of the other party did not attract him much. All his attention now was on the pope.

But the situation he saw couldn't make him optimistic. Considering the absurd scene outside, Constantine felt a bitter bitterness in his throat.

"Duke, I may not be able to accept your request. It is now a truce. As long as it does not damage the safety of the army, I can't stop my soldiers from doing what they want." Ruosha questioned the frowning frowns Constantine said, "Also let me remind you that your army hasn't paid in a long time. If you can't guarantee that they can get their money, then be prepared for the worst."

Constantine's cheeks twitched, and he knew what Lusha said.

Mercenaries are indeed a very useful military force. The reason why many countries like to use mercenaries is to save a lot of money for keeping a standing army. This money is often unaffordable for those city-states, or Even some big countries are willing to hire an army to fight for themselves because they cannot afford the huge military expenses.

But mercenaries also have a lot of problems. In addition to the most troublesome loyalty problem, there is the poor discipline of mercenaries.

There have been too many countries in the history of being robbed by mercenaries because of arrears of military pay, and the mercenary commanders who have lost their lives because of mutiny are even more numerous.

Now Ruosha's words made Constantine feel a clear threat, but they could not help but admit that she said something.

It's just that the Pope's army was reduced to a Neapolitan boy, which made Constantine find it unacceptable.

"I will settle the military pay," Constantine said sullenly. "Before that, I think we should probably talk about Rome carefully."

Ruosha didn't speak, but stared at Constantine silently for a while, then she nodded silently.

"Since the truce, now we are talking as relatives rather than enemies, so I think it is necessary to tell you my father's kindness to you." Constantine said carefully and looked at Rusha. Not an illusion, he felt that the young and beautiful queen in front of her had become more attractive than when she was just the Countess of Cosenza.

If the original Countess of Cosenza was still the beauty and liveliness of the young girl, then the Queen of Naples now shows the most intoxicating charm of a woman.

This made Constantine suddenly jealous of the short-lived Naples Alfred.

Constantine shook his head secretly so that he should not think about the messy things. If the embarrassing situation he is facing cannot be changed as soon as possible, then his pope army may become a large group of armed brokers who buy and sell.

If so, then he really has to be the biggest laughing stock on the Italian peninsula.

"My father hopes that we can sign an armistice agreement. After all, our common enemy is the French."

Constantine recounted the old Rovere's words with confidence.

He believed that Ruo Sha would eventually agree to this suggestion, because as he said, Louis XII was their common enemy, and with their knowledge of Ruo Sha, the queen obviously cared about her brother.

In order to help Roma Thesia, Ruosha will also agree to an agreement that will do no harm to both of them.

"The Naples army can enter Rome in a symbolic way. You can even cross the Arc de Triomphe and then see the pope, but you can only lead 200 soldiers. The other Naples army cannot enter the city of Rome."

Constantine said that he secretly watched Ruosha's expression. He saw that Ruosha raised her eyebrows in dissatisfaction, but didn't say anything. This made him relax.

Despite believing in his father ’s judgment, Constantine, after watching the performance of the Pope, had little hope of whether he could block the Neapolitans.

Now seeing Lu Sha's reaction did not seem to be very strong, which made Constantine a little excited.

He tried to say in a calm tone: "Of course, because of your previous war with Caesar, I think it may not be a good idea to meet the Pope, but you can still be received by the Cardinals, and I guarantee that you will be able to meet Your status should be courteous. "

Luo Sha listened quietly until Constantine had finished speaking, and she raised her hand gracefully and flicked a few strands of gold-like hair from the temple, before slowly opening her mouth and asked: "I Does my brother ’s father-in-law think that I have no guts and ca n’t occupy Rome? "

Luo Sha used a strange term to refer to Old Rovere, and then looked at Constantine with a more subtle look, which made Constantine feel a little embarrassed. He did not know what was wrong with it, at least. In his opinion, isn't this just a good opportunity for everyone to step down decently?

But now Ruosha looks like this, but Constantine is a little bit bottomed out,

But Rusha didn't care what he thought, but continued: "My army can enter Rome at any time, and I can assure you that even if you can reorganize the Pope's army, there is no way to compete with me. I can Beating Caesar Borgia will defeat you as well, and I believe this process must be easier than defeating Caesar. "

Constantine's face flushed instantly, and he never expected that if he would be so mercilessly ridiculing him, what made him unexpected was that Rusha seemed completely ignorant of the war that broke out in Thesesia, Rome.

Constantine even felt like he was dreaming when he left. He never thought that Ruo Sha would reject the proposal he put forward. This caused him to get on the horse and fled from the tent as soon as he left the tent they had negotiated. Field of the film.

He thought of Caesar's weird method of death, which made Constantine feel that even with the guard can not guarantee his safety.

After returning to his barracks, Constantine told Luo Shaowei's reply to Ruo Sha, and he had to make a request to his father, hoping that he could try to find a way to raise the pay for the Pope, because if Delaying, he was worried that "the Neapolitans may have thousands of more mercenaries."

But Old Luo Weilei did not wait for the reply, but Constantine received a letter that made him panic.

There was a riot in the city of Rome!

Many people began to sell Ladia because they heard rumors about running Ladia from France ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ and some of the stores in the city of Rome in the Fugal family have reacted faster this time. surprisingly.

They directly exchanged the gold coins of Zucheng Ladia issued by the Holy See that had been received from other regions at low prices and other parishes that were also circulating in the city of Rome. Dwarf the Holy See ’s treasury.

Just a day ago, Alexander VI ordered that the exchange of Ladia be banned, and in this way, an inevitable disturbance occurred.

Listening to the anxious report of the coming person, and then thinking about the Pope's army that he could not control now, Constantine suddenly remembered the strange words that Lao Sha had said before.

"Does my brother's father-in-law think that I have no guts and can not occupy Rome?"

At that time he just felt strange, and now Constantine seems to understand that Ruosha must be questioning, but is telling him affirmatively: she will occupy Rome!
