Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Vol 3 Chapter 136: Trading and trading

Suddenly seeing an acquaintance who hasn't seen for a long time, the two parties who should have been happy for a while, but their faces are not very good. Except for the smile on Olgala's face, Mel de Cordova's face is as gloomy as if Water can be screwed out at any time.

Alexander met them in his tent, and he did n’t want them to see the Kotschah palace before he knew what he was saying.

Mel de Cordova looked a lot calmer than he used to be in Naples, and the young nobleman who lacked the playboy's style was no longer so frivolous, even if the next Olgala snuggled in his arms. Here, he didn't show much complacentness, but his eyes always looked so unfriendly to Alexander.

"I didn't expect that we would meet here, and when did you become an accomplice to the French?" Mel de Cordova looked at the tent and looked at the messy loot piled on the ground. He could think of the nobles. I should have suffered a lot. "You still captured the prince of the empire. I don't think you know what this means. I know you are the nephew of Count Modillo. But what you do is not only for you, but also I ’ve done a lot of trouble for your uncle, so I ’m here to help you. ”After Cordoba Jr. finished speaking, he lifted his chin slightly and looked at Alexander with a condescending gaze.“ Release the palace and all the nobles, Return all property belonging to the coalition forces, we may consider forgiving your fault. "

Alexander looked at this young man slightly older than him, and shook his head after he had said: "I thought you were mature, but I was wrong."

After talking, Alexander passed by the little Cordoba and walked to the door of the tent.

"Stop!" Little Cordova turned and shouted angrily towards Alexander's back. "Do you think you have the upper hand? Do you think you can just blackmail us if you grab the palace and those people? Your actions have been irritated." Too many people, you probably do n’t know that Constantine de la Rovere has taken Charalon back to Rome. They left after the news that you captured the palace, and no one stopped them. But instead of coming to you, they went directly back to Rome. They left you alone, and you finished Gomblay. "

There was a pause at Alexander's feet. Instead of turning around, he continued to walk out of the tent.

Outside the tent, Carlo, who was anxiously waiting, immediately greeted him, and the fire shone on his face, reflecting the anxiety in his eyes.

"Sir, is that what the man said is true, Master Constantine, have they really returned to Rome? They don't care about us?" Carlo tried to keep his voice down so that no one else could hear him, seeing Alexander's lack of expression, He immediately understood that this should not be false. "How can they do that? This is a betrayal."

"This is Roman Carlo, this is the Roman way," Alexander corrected with a smile. "Fortunately, I thought of this already, and you shouldn't be fooled by that little Cordoba. I admit that his uncle is indeed a great person. , But he is far from his uncle, so we will wait and see what the other 'ambassador' said. "

Carlo looked at Alexander with some consternation. He didn't understand how he could be so calm at this time. Then he saw Orgala who came out of the tent and smiled.

"I don't know if I can talk to you." The charming woman smiled so sweetly that Carlo moved involuntarily to avoid it, looking at Alexander who was walking, and Mrs. Olgala looked at it. Looking at his arm, she did n’t walk until she reached out with her arms in amusement, and she walked side by side with his arms bent, and the two slowly walked side by side in the night of the campsite. "I heard you have a lot of things, these You are an eye-opener in your life. "

"Thank you Madam, but so far I have achieved nothing." Alexander said with a little emotion.

This is indeed his heartfelt words. Although, as Olgala said, he did a lot of things, but until now he has been like a floating water grass without foundation, although the area of ​​Agri has The huge potential of the southern Italian hub, but because of the importance there, he knows that the reason why Agry can fall into his hands is because everyone else is 'too busy' and has no control over him at all. With their hands free, neither Frederick of Naples or Earl of Horan in Taranto, they will not tolerate anyone occupying the land except themselves.

Therefore, it was because of this that he agreed with Count Modillo ’s proposal to deliver food to the French in the north. Whether it was for the count or for him, it was very important for the French to persevere and find something for the coalition. necessary.

But now it seems that all is not going well, whether it is because Gonzalo is too powerful, or the coalition commander is too wasteful. In short, after the war was delayed for more than a month, it finally began to close the curtain. This It turned out that it didn't quite meet his or the earl's wishes.

Or, including the mysterious lowland businessman behind the beautiful woman beside him, he should not be very satisfied either.

"But you have captured the Imperial Palace, which is too unexpected for everyone," Olgala said with a smile. "You probably don't know how important that adult is. You have to know Gonzalo de Coco. Cordova respected the palace, and because he was too important, he came to Rome instead of Piedmont, because he was preparing to accept the city of Rome on behalf of the emperor. "

Alexander's mouth opened slightly silently, and when he saw his unexpected look, Olgala smiled more charmingly.

"Now do you know how terrible this is, you have taken the emperor's messenger to captivity."

The emperor, who can have this title, can only be one person in Europe, that is, the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire elected by the seven-election emperor. Since the fall of Constantinople, the only one who can crown the Roman emperor so far The man on his own crown, and the current Holy Roman Emperor is Maximian I.

Alexander didn't know much about the emperor, but he knew that the emperor had a beautiful-looking son, and his son married a beautiful wife, and he and his wife seemed to be cousins.

Then he found that if he carefully dragged it up, he seemed to have such a relative relationship with the Holy Roman Emperor.

Alexander shook his head slightly to wake himself up from his cranky thoughts. He knew that Olgala was right. He seemed to have caused some trouble this time, otherwise Constantine would not put his newly released brother-in-law so quickly. Tossing aside, he ran back to Rome.

However, Alexander was not annoyed by this. The so-called marriage with the Rovere family was a profit transaction from beginning to end. Assuming that someone is more valuable than Modillo, the archbishop will immediately regret the marriage without hesitation. clear.

It ’s just that Olgara ’s smile made him a little bit uncomfortable. He knew that this woman would definitely follow. It ’s definitely not easy, so looking at her though she was very dangerous, she still had a leisurely look, and Alexander continued quietly. She was chatting, he knew that now the comparison between the two was who could not hold his breath.

Several figures in the distance ran hurriedly, the fire shining against their figure, and there was also a loud scolding during the period.

"You fools, do you want to blow us all to death? Move those barrels away and away from the fire, it's all life-threatening stuff." A slightly older Agari scolded A few young people saw Alexander, and the veteran was a little surprised and immediately went up to salute, "Master, sorry I didn't see you coming."

"You did a good job, look at them," Alexander looked at the soldiers who began to move the gunpowder barrels to the far corner carefully after being scolded. "Captain, do we have enough gunpowder? If there are more enemies, Come, can you stop them? "

"Of course enough for adults," the veteran used to poke the musket on the ground with his arms. "I was a soldier for a while, and I should be recruited by King Ferdinand. At that time, I was a musketeer. I remember that time. There is not much gunpowder in the king ’s army than we are now. "

Alexander nodded. He knew that the veteran said that Ferdinand should be Frederick's father Ferdinand I, not the short-lived ghost Ferdinand, who had just died recently.

"And we have artillery, although there is only one, but as long as you put it in place, it still works." Seeing Olgala next to him, the veteran's chest became straighter, and then he continued with bragging. " We defeated the heavy cavalry of the Allied Forces twice in Apio and on the road. Now that we have more ammunition and artillery, I do n’t know why we will fail. "

Alexander nodded with satisfaction. Although the veteran's words were somewhat stimulated by the woman next to him, but this was exactly what he needed. Looking at Orgala, who was still smiling, Alexander raised his hand to move on.

The tall shadows of a few rows of carriages blocked the way. Olgala looked at Alexander a little puzzled until she was taken to the exit by the carriage gap that was interlaced from this row of outlets. She found that she had left the camp. .

"Have you not noticed this before?" Alexander pointed back and smiled when he saw Olgala's slightly puzzled nod.

Earlier, when he heard the scout saying that Carlo had brought back two people, Alexander ordered the carriage as a barricade to separate on both sides, so he could be sure that it was impossible for Little Cordova to notice that the layers on both sides of the camp entrance looked very The messy carriage, even if Gonzalo came, will not find the mystery so easily.

"We are ready," Alexander finally said, pointing to the dark distance of the camp. "We will not be afraid even if the coalition forces attack. The previous battle was enough to let my soldiers know that they have enough courage to qualify for more. Many loot, so the threat of Cordoba Jr. is useless to me. "But here Alexander said, rubbing his head slightly with his fingers." Of course, if it is his uncle Gonzalo who threatens me so, I will consider this time. The question is whether I should surrender earlier. "

"Poof," Olgala was amused by Alexander's words. She looked at the man who admitted to being timid without looking at it funny. "It seems that you are all afraid of that Gonzalo, is that person really that powerful?"

"Of course, that person is not only terrible, but a bit scary." Alexander didn't mind admitting his fear of Gonzalo. After all, just thinking about Gonzalo's impressive record was enough to disturb him, let alone his He defeated all powerful big men. With this strength in his hands, Alexander did not think it was shameful to show weakness to Gonzalo.

"But you don't seem to be surrendering immediately after hearing his reputation," Orgala's eyes flashed. "Tell me that in addition to the gunpowder and the cannon, what else do you have to rely on? I always feel You should have other reliance. "

"Maybe," Alexander looked at the dark plains in the distance. Although he knew that most of the army would not move at night at this time, and the coalition also sent messengers, he still sent scouts, so if there was any danger, he You can know in advance, "In fact, I don't have anything to rely on, and if it is, it should be you."

Olgara's playful look flashed in her eyes. She seemed to be happy that she had finally achieved this battle of endurance, but looking back at the camp behind her, she was a little bit frustrated.

Apparently Alexander let her see these things not just to show off in front of the woman, but to tell her that he would not be afraid of the coalition even without the support from others.

After all, now the Imperial Palace and a large group of idlers ran to see the lively nobles. Although since the battle of Koresi more than 100 years ago, there have never been any terrible incidents of large groups of nobles being captured and slaughtered, but who I can't guarantee that once this person is rushed, there will not be another tragedy like that.

And Olgara had a faint feeling, it seems that Alexander was not just trying to use the palace phase and these nobles to threaten the coalition forces, but had other reliance.

Olgala did n’t want to make things unmanageable, which was not what she wanted to see, and she believed it was not what Grogening wanted to see. On the contrary, it can be seen from Grogening ’s letter to her that he did not know himself The reason is still influenced by the veterans of the industry associations in the Hanseatic League on the north coast. Grogening has changed his attitude towards this war. He seems to hope that everything will end as soon as possible. The letter also revealed the willingness of the French to get rid of this dispute as soon as possible.

It was because of this that Olgala came to Rome with Cordoba Jr., but she didn't expect that she had encountered such a thing as soon as she arrived here.

When Cordoba Jr. heard that Miyazaki and many nobles were captured by Alexander, he proposed to meet Alexander on the grounds of knowing Alexander, and Olgala naturally could not give up this opportunity, and followed Cordoba Jr. Came to meet Alexander.

But I do n’t know why, maybe it ’s the reason that I have n’t seen each other for a long time. Olgala felt that there was some change in the Alexander in front of him and how much he had seen in Naples. Olgala still felt something she didn't have before.

Is it because of those Agry Musketeers?

Olgara couldn't help but look back at the shadowy figure in the camp.

Or did he really think he could resist the coalition with that artillery?

"Release the palace and the nobles, you can get a large ransom," Olgala whispered. "If you can find each of them for less ransom, I think my master will be willing to pay the difference for them. Of that part, of course, the 30,000 Ducat you asked for the palace is a little more. I think 10,000 Ducat will not damage the identity of the palace and will be good for you. "

"Then I got a lot less money than I had expected, and Groningen got the friendship between the palace and the nobles?" Alexander asked with a slightly ironic smile.

Seeing Olgala ’s face flashing unpleasantly, Alexander smiled. When he saw Olgala appearing along with Cordoba ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ he already vaguely guessed whether Grogening or There have been changes in the Hanseatic League, otherwise neither this woman nor the big rich man behind her will easily walk to the front like this. They seem to be the kind of people who like to use money as a barrier to hide behind and do things.

Now I heard Olgala saying this. Although Alexander did n’t know what happened to Groningen, it was clear that the man seemed to be wielding his money bag again.

Only this time, Alexander did not want him to do so.

Olgala opened his mouth, just about to continue to discourage, but was suddenly blocked by Alexander's sulking finger on his lips.

Looking at Alexander listening, Olgala could not help raising her ears slightly, and then she heard a sound of horseshoes faintly.

There weren't many people who heard the sound. Alexander stepped back slightly, and when he saw that he was not far from the camp, he stopped and looked at the dark road in the distance.

Several figures appeared, and when the soldiers coming out of the camp shouted to stop them, the people on the opposite side shouted loudly: "I am Constantin de la Rovere, I come to see my brother-in-law ! "
