The Eagle of Eastern Europe

"Sultan, they should be running towards Varna."

As soon as he heard the direction, Bayezid shouted to the people next to him.

"What are you waiting for? Go chase him!"

Bayezid's military ability is not bad, of course, his temper is also not small, and he can explode at the slightest moment. He couldn't tolerate the other party humiliating him like this, but he just wanted to cut it into pieces.

So Muhammad Pasha led Sipashi directly towards Varna. You can catch up in a day.

In this way, they chased him from noon to dark. There was no sign of the enemy, and Sipaxi's morale began to decline. In order to pursue the enemy, they went into battle lightly, but it became dark while running. So Muhammad decided to camp on the spot.

But at this time they were in a forest. As long as they got out of the forest, they could camp on the spot.

All Sipaxi were thinking about resting quickly, unaware of the coming danger.

"Hey, do you smell something?"

"I smell it, but I can't tell what it is."

Muhammad also heard the whispers of the Sipahis. He also smelled an unpleasant smell and did not know what it was.

Fortunately, we could already see the exit, but a huge tree blocked the way. Muhammad ordered to move away and found a piece of paper.

"You will die here."

As soon as Muhammad saw it, he knew something was wrong and quickly ordered the army to be on guard. But it's too late.

Hundreds of rockets were fired from all directions, landing on trees, the ground, and shrubs, and the fire spread rapidly. This forest turned into a sea of ​​fire.

Some Sipaxi who had not yet entered the forest wanted to retreat, but were dragged off their horse and killed by the sudden appearance of light cavalry and infantry. At this time, they died before they could fully react.

Soon, the war drums sounded. The Sipaxi who planned to rush out no longer had the energy to identify where the sound came from. They could only rush out from all directions, but as soon as they escaped, they were captured. And if you don't get out, you can only be burned alive and choked to death.

Muhammad Pasha could only break out with a few guards. They succeeded at the cost of losing two people.

Immediately, they prepared to flee back to Burgas. But before he had gone far, the horse tripped over a rope. Muhammad fell off the horse and was captured alive by the enemy soldiers who swarmed around him.

In a temporary camp not far away, Peter was looking at the Balkan sand table. This one-to-one three-dimensional map that took a lot of time to make is Peter's treasure. As you can see above, Varna and Vidin were placed on the Eastern Cross, Edirne and others were placed on the Ottoman star and moon, and Sofia and Burgas were placed on the red and black flags, symbolizing competition between the two sides.

"My lord, if the Archduke can capture Sofia, then we must capture Burgas so that we can build a new line of defense to prevent other Ottoman invasions."

"Um"

Burgas and Sofia are like two cities that echo each other from a distance. If Plovdiv is captured again, then a defense line with the Balkan Mountains as a barrier will be able to resist the Ottomans very well.

Peter wanted to attract the main force of the Ottomans to reduce the pressure on Archduke Mircea and quickly capture Sofia. And he also wanted to look for opportunities to severely damage Bayezid's army.

Listening to the sound of fighting in the distance, Peter asked the generals around him.

"How's the situation outside?"

"My lord, the Ottomans are in complete chaos."

Upon hearing the news, all the generals were happy, but Peter remained calm. He expected this.

If you put the Eastern examples from over a thousand years ago here, they are all super-gods. Not to mention Europe, which was not yet over in the Middle Ages.

"By the way, where is Alexei?"

As soon as Peter finished speaking, a missionary ran in. There was still some paper in his hand.

"My lord, what do you think of these?"

Alexei asked Peter about his new manuscripts.

"It seems the abbot was right to transfer you from the monastery," Peter said.

Alexei entered a monastery from an early age and later studied theology, literature, poetry, etc. Later, he entered the Constanta Academy to study because he was studious. Because he was good at creating literature and poetry, he received Peter's investment.

Because the promotion of Wallachian writing requires the support of literary and artistic works, poetry and novels are the most popular and fastest way to spread, so they can naturally get Peter's support.

Alexei lived up to expectations and created some classic works. For example, "The Little Ewe" and "The Artisan Manole" are all written in Wallachian script. And these did popularize Wallachian writing, and works printed by printing houses began to spread in large numbers.

This time, Alexey personally followed Peter in order to write an epic work against the Ottomans. He was a man who wanted to be remembered in history, and he did not care about the risk of being captured or killed.

At this moment, two soldiers escorted a disgraced man to the tent.

"This..." (100 words omitted here)

"Who is this?"

"Sir, this is the commander of the cavalry unit, Muhammad Pasha. We spent a lot of effort to escort him here."

Peter looked at Mohammed carefully, and the sight made him uncomfortable. Because he felt that he was a slave for others to choose, so he struggled hard and wanted to kill him.

"Looks like he's not convinced." Peter looked level with him, and he saw the unconvinced look in his eyes.

It's normal, after all, no one would admit to being captured by a child. Especially the Ottoman general, he did not expect that the leader of this army was actually a child.

"I know you are not convinced. After all, you, your Sultan, all of you don't know that I am the one leading the army."

"You are trampling on the land of the Orthodox Church and killing Orthodox people, and you even shamelessly think that you are trying to save them. You are simply more shameless than those in Rome and Augsburg."

Peter's words actually calmed Muhammad. After many years of military service, it was the first and probably only time that he was calmed by a man much younger than himself.

"I admit that your Sultan is very powerful, but he will definitely fail. And you can no longer see it."

Immediately afterwards, he asked the soldiers to take him down. He didn't know what happened next.

At dawn again, Peter's army once again annihilated the Ottoman vanguard. And this time the annihilation was cleaner than the first time.

And when Bayezid led the army here angrily, all he saw was the burned forest and the dark land. The crow crows on the dead tree, which makes people panic when they hear it.

Bayezid couldn't believe that there must have been a big battle here. And it must have been an encounter between Muhammad and the enemy.

He continued to walk forward, and the scene in front of him made him vomit.

Hundreds of Ottoman Sipahi were impaled on sharp wooden posts, and their death was extremely miserable. Some of the Sipaxi who were not quite dead even prayed in feeble voices to save him.

Bayezid became more and more frightened as he walked, and for the first time he felt afraid. It wasn't long before he saw Muhammad Pasha, in the highest position. to prove his status.

Bayezid couldn't bear it anymore. He had Muhammad put down, but found a piece of paper underneath with the same handwriting as the one he had gotten before.

"The Sultan had better think about the journey ahead, or this is what will happen to you."

"Or do you want me to rip your head off and use it as a ball?"
