The Rise of the European Emperor
Chapter 1570 The Battle of Naples (Part 2)
In the Governor's Mansion in Naples, the five Spanish nobles were awakened and gathered together to study countermeasures.
"Oh, damn the French, they must have hidden troops in the city, otherwise the gates would not have been opened!" the Duke Cabrera complained.
Duke Domingo glanced at him impatiently, and blamed:
"Cabrera, now is not the time to complain, but what should we do? If we don't do something, we will lose the battle. Then, all five of us will be finished!"
Duke Cabrera stopped talking for a moment, and then, the five of you looked at me and I looked at you, but there was nothing we could do. Several of them are masters in internal fighting, but when it comes to talents... let's not mention it...
However, now is a critical moment of life and death, and the adjutant standing by the side, Francis, is in a hurry:
"5 adults, please make a decision as soon as possible! If it is too late, the French will come here!"
Duke Cabrera said helplessly:
"How to resist? The subordinates reported that the Frenchmen charging ahead are the bravest French knights, and ordinary infantry are no match for the enemy at all!"
Francis thought for a while and said:
"Yes, let's send people to push all the trolleys there, blocking the streets and hindering the progress of the French!"
Count Scudo retorted:
"It's useless. The trolley chariot can only resist the knight on horseback. If the opponent dismounts and fights on foot, you can move the cart if you can't rush over!"
Francis hurriedly said:
"Even if we can't stop it, we can delay the time. Now, we must gather the main force of the army and launch resistance. Otherwise, the whole army will be wiped out!"
Duke Domingo nodded at this moment:
"Okay, this matter is up to you, Francis. All the carts, you retreat to the north street to stop the French from advancing. In addition, I will give you 1000 plate guards and 2000 warhammers. Please be sure to block them as much as possible Live in the footsteps of the French!"
Francis looked at the five people sadly, and he knew that it would be bad or bad for him to go. After all, he was facing the most ferocious attack of the French. Facing 20,000 French knights, he didn't think the 1,000 Spanish backless plate armor knights and 2,000 warhammer soldiers under him could withstand it. Therefore, the possibility of his death in battle is extremely high.
So he said sadly:
"Well, someone has to sacrifice for Spain. Let me, Francis of the Huesca family, bleed and die for Spain! But before I go, please invite a few adults, and you can see in the future when I take the initiative to go For the sake of death, I can take care of my son Francis Jr."
The five Spanish nobles all nodded. After all, it is not kind to send someone to die. These days, nobles also have to face. It wasn't until the 18th century that European aristocrats began to be shameless. So, out of guilt, they promised to take care of little Francis in the future. After all, even if they are defeated, they are still great nobles. If you can't get along in the army, you can also get mixed up in the civil service system. Moreover, these people's official fighting standards are very high, otherwise they would not have won the opportunity to lead the army.
After losing his scruples, Francis took a deep breath, walked out of the Governor's Mansion, came to the Chariot Battalion next to the Governor's Mansion Square, and began to direct the soldiers to push the chariot to the North Street. Afterwards, he summoned 1,000 Spanish Halter Knights and 2,000 Warhammer Soldiers, and came to the intersection of North Avenue...
...
Coincidentally, the 3,000 French knights who rushed to the front were exhausted after a long fight. As a result, the French delayed their attack when they arrived at a distance of 400 meters from the Governor's Palace. After all, fighting for half a day wearing plate armor weighing dozens of kilograms is really too much. If you can fight for a long time wearing such heavy plate armor, then all countries will be plate infantry.
Afterwards, a new batch of French knights came forward to replace the first batch of French knights who could no longer run...
Taking advantage of the time when the French were in rotation, Francis was lucky enough to command the Spanish army and completed the deployment—one thousand and hundreds of wheeled chariots were pushed onto the street,
Blocked the streets. Then, Francis took 1,000 Spanish halter knights and 2,000 warhammers to stand ready...
At the same time, some alleys that could be detoured were also blocked by Francis. Compared with the wide main street, those alleys are much easier to defend than to attack. After all, the alley is narrow, and there are few people who can pass through it at one time, which is more conducive to defense.
...
When a new group of French knights were replaced, they discovered to their dismay that what greeted them was not a fight, but a mountain of unicycles...
If you want to rush over, you have to move these wheelbarrows out of the way first. But how could the knights do such a thing as cleaning up the garbage? So these knights let the infantry behind them go forward to clean up depressingly...
And as time went by, the sky began to gradually brighten. When the French infantry almost cleared the wheelbarrow, they were met with fierce resistance from the oncoming Spanish army led by Francis. On the spot, dozens of French infantrymen were killed. Then, the French knights came in and fought fiercely with the Spanish resisters...
Although the French knights are more skilled in martial arts, after all, the streets are narrow, and the French knights are not very capable. Coupled with the preparations Francis and his Spanish soldiers had made to die, the battle became extremely fierce.
Francis took the lead in shouting "For Spain!", "For the King!", and then desperately took the lead in a desperate contest with the French knights. Under his encouragement, a thousand Spanish knights burst out with huge energy, and they fought against three thousand French knights. But because the plate armor's protection is so good, the casualties on both sides are not large, but the physical strength is exhausted very quickly.
Originally, it was nothing. However, let another group of fresh French knights replace the second group of French knights who were exhausted from fighting, and stand with the tired Spaniards...
Facing such wretched wheel tactics, Francis and his Spanish knights were extremely aggrieved. They loudly accused their opponents of being shameless. However, since they didn't even understand Latin, they naturally couldn't understand Francis' accusations. And, even if he understood it, he wouldn't care. He was born as a businessman, he didn't care about honor at all, he only cared about profit and victory...
Then, Francis and the 1,000 Spanish knights he led and the 2,000 Warhammers who assisted him either died or were captured due to exhaustion.
At the final moment, Francis still shouted:
"For Spain! For the King!"
However, when he was covered in injuries, he turned around and found that the square in front of the Governor's Mansion was empty—the five Spanish nobles whom he had placed high hopes on did not send troops to reinforce the resistance, but took part of the main force to run away from the south gate up...
"Pfft——" Francis, who was already covered in injuries, couldn't bear the blow of being betrayed after all, spit out a mouthful of old blood, and fell on his back...
Afterwards, the unobstructed French army rushed into the deserted Governor's Palace Square, divided into three groups, and rushed to the other three city gates outside the north gate, blocking many Spanish soldiers who had no time to escape...
