Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Giovanni ’s judgment is accurate, or the threat of the Ottomans has indeed made the Europeans almost to the point of being frightened. Since the fall of Constantinople, Europeans have always waited for a fear that they Rather, the hope is that the result will appear as soon as possible, and that is the Ottoman invasion.

When the Ottomans finally "responded" to this European expectation, and exposed their ambitions for Europa Big 6, the Europeans began to face the one from the East with a kind of "finally still coming" mentality Terrible enemy.

Giovanni's judgment that Pitiliuno would send someone to Venice for a truce was quickly confirmed. The threat of the Ottomans made the Venetians decide to end this disputed war with the Holy See as soon as possible. When the messenger asked for negotiations, Alexander became a negotiator with the Venetians.

On May 15th, this day was a very bad day for Venetian deputy Pitilino. He led the army against the French two years ago. After winning the victory and expelling the French, he suffered heavy losses. The governor of Venice was so dissatisfied that he only got the title of lieutenant general.

But now, the war with the Holy See that he had high hopes for was ended because the Ottomans were so hastily. Even if the short-lived war was carefully counted from beginning to end, the coalition army not only did not gain any benefits, but also because of the continuous The two defeats were at a disadvantage during the negotiations.

The two defeats came from the same person.

Pitilino would n’t think that the Battle of Aral was the masterpiece of Calgino, as everyone else did. When he listened carefully from Milan and the Venetians who fled back, he realized that the defeat was completely It was caused by an accident born in the town of Oral. As for the Milanese leaving the battlefield without authorization, it was the cause of the major losses that Pitiliuno did not value too much.

How did the Earl of Montina do it? This is where Pitiliuno noticed.

The lieutenant does not think that all of this is a coincidence, but does not think it is planned. He is more willing to believe that this is a wonderful example of cleverly seizing the opportunity to win, and he believes that if the league is coming again, it may not be possible. I was so lucky, but he still felt that the Earl of Montina was indeed not simple.

At least this man dared to use only so few troops against the Milanese. It was this bravery that made Pitiliuno think it should be taken seriously.

So when he heard that it was the young count who was negotiating with him, Pitiliuno showed great interest. He even offered to meet Alexander somewhere in the middle of the two armies for fairness.

And when the two sides saw each other in a monastery not far from the city of Realo, Pituriuno showed a generosity that surprised his entourage.

Many people know that Pitilino is not a very broad-minded person. After the war with the French, he complained a lot because he did not receive the treatment and status he deserved, even in some public places. Expressed inner dissatisfaction.

This is one of the reasons why his relationship with the Venetian governor Barbarig was once tense.

So now seeing Pitiliuno showing rare respect to Alexander who caused him two troubles, many people who are familiar with his character feel a little incredible.

But Alexander was able to guess how much the Vice Admiral of Venice did.

Petiriuno did this just to prove to others that he was not defeated by an unknown soldier.

The so-called uplifting of opponents is actually uplifting oneself, which is what Pitiliuno thinks today.

Alexander didn't want to mix things with the Venetian, his purpose was to quickly end the war through negotiations.

If he had eagerly hoped that a war would allow him to seize the opportunity of Montina, then now he hoped that the war would end as soon as possible, so when Giovanni proposed that he and the Venetian negotiate, Alexander was very Almost agreed.

As for Giovanni's promises, Alexander did not care.

Being able to get the support of a pivotal figure from the Borgia family does seem to be important, but as long as I look back on what the family has done, Alexander feels that he still has no hope for the family.

As for Giovanni, helping him means helping himself. Alexander believed that it was the truth, but the life of this big uncle was clearly approaching the end of his life. Maybe he would go to see God soon after returning to Rome. The promises made are insignificant.

Pitilino is a very fat man with an iconic aquiline nose protruding from his huge head, which is impressive at first glance.

The monastery has received notice in advance, so on May 15th it was not open to the parishioners. In the slightly empty corridor, a table was placed in the middle. There was no other than the five attendants carried by each side. Delegates looked at each other across the table, while wondering how to start this seemingly somewhat difficult negotiation.

The conditions given by Giovanni are simple but demanding. The Venetians must unconditionally withdraw from Romagna and pay a 5oooo Florin war reparation, while the Milanese must pay a 2oooo Florin while retreating. The military expenses are given to the Holy See, while also publicly acknowledging that Giovanni Sforza died normally.

Such a condition is obviously not acceptable to the Venetians, it seems imperative to withdraw from Romagna, otherwise the two parties will not sit together, but the total compensation of up to 7oooo Florin can not be accepted anyway.

"Earl, probably your general did not figure out where everyone is now," Pitiliuno said slowly. "We are all now facing the biggest crisis since the invasion of the Mongols 2 centuries ago, even compared with the Mongols. Our current enemies are even more dangerous, because the Mongols are only trying to destroy us, and what the Ottomans want to destroy is our faith. "

Vice Admiral Venice pointed to his chest, where the black breastplate was knocked loudly.

"So at this time I think what we all should do is to end this dispute between Christians as soon as possible, rather than use this consumption to make the pagans profit from it, so this unreasonable condition of the Duke of Gandino cannot be accepted of."

Alexander listened quietly, and he knew from the beginning that it would be the reaction when the conditions were raised. After all, Giovanni was completely a condition that was put forward as a winner, and the Venetians could not accept such harsh conditions. .

This negotiation is destined not to have a result soon.

Turning his head, he looked at the lush canopy in the yard outside the corridor. Alexander smiled softly at the ugly Venetian vice-admiral.

"Dear general, I think we still have a lot of time to talk about it," Alexander pondered a little, then said, "It should be about a month long enough for us to squander."

There was a trace of doubt in Pitiruino's face, and he didn't quite understand what Alexander meant.

The Vice Admiral of Venice certainly did not know that the Alexandria General Assembly said a month ’s time because he remembered that if he followed the original trajectory, Giovanni would be killed a month later, that is, one day in mid-June 1497 In the Tiber River in Rome.

Hoasan Forgazi Ashurk is the hottest and most noticeable person in Rome today.

Even the thunder of the Ottoman sultan had suppressed Gonzalo and Kotzach for a time.

The brigade ’s year-old attendants, extravagant appearances, and arrogance revealed extremely confident words and manners. For a time, the Romans were fascinated by this oriental messenger.

Many people tried their best to visit the Sudanese messenger, and more people hoped to build a friendship with the Sudanese cronies for the coming of a future.

For these rushing Romans, Ashhurk showed the courtesy and grace that a nobleman deserves. Although he is proud, he treats everyone who visits him gracefully, and when people leave, in addition to sighing the Eastern Messenger It was almost extravagant beyond the ultimate life, and he couldn't help being shocked by his surprising knowledge.

Ashurk is obviously a very talented person, at least in terms of language talent, he has an unsurpassed advantage. He listens to his skillful use of Greek, Latin, French, and even German to converse with different guests, if It is not his typical oriental costume, people will even think that he is a well-known European scholar and not a special envoy from Sudan who brought war attempts from the East.

And what Aschulk most praised the Romans was his generosity.

On the first day of entering the city of Rome, before waiting for people to wake up from the shock of the size of his vast entourage, Ashurk ordered the purchase of a building not far from the Colosseum Luxury palace.

According to the original owner who sold the palace, the reason why he was willing to sell his ancestral house was because the Sudanese envoy paid a number that made him "difficult to refuse".

Then a variety of dazzling things began to appear in Aschulk ’s new home, from luxury to ultimate furniture to precious and unusual wool rugs, from exquisite and comfortable couches to delicately carved spittoons, and there are those although Can't see the true face, but as long as you guess, the beautiful female slaves who emerged in succession, Ashurk brought Rome an exotic whirlwind from the East.

But these are not the most important. What really attracted the attention of the Romans was the war threat brought by the Ottoman Empire through him.

From a long time ago, the Ottomans tried to build a powerful and vast empire. When Mohammed II, who was known as the conqueror of Constantinople, this desire finally gradually became a reality.

After completely destroying East Rome, Sudan's eyes turned to the vast Europa University 6.

After experiencing unexpected setbacks in the Balkans, as heir to Muhammad II, Bayesert II accomplished what his father failed to achieve-taking almost the entire Balkan pocket.

Now, only the barrier across the water of the Adriatic Sea has become the only reliance, and the Ottoman fleet may cross the sea at any time and sweep across Italy.

The Romans were really scared, the people poured into the church to pray for God's help, and the nobles spoke to Alexander VI, hoping to stop the war with the Venetians as soon as possible.

Compared to the panicked Romans, Pope Alexander VI showed a rare calmness, which even made Ashurk the messenger when he mentioned the pope, he could not help but praise his calmness and wisdom .

Alexander showed enough respect to the ambassadors of Sudan. He instructed people to paint the room used to meet Ashurk, and ordered a large number of brand-new cooking utensils to be prepared for use by the messenger ’s special cooks. When he came to meet him, Alexander VI made an exception from the messenger's kiss.

All of this, while showing the grace of the Pope, seemed to herald the awe of the powerful monarch who is now far east.

But when many people inevitably think so, Alexander VI showed a rare indifference to the conditions imposed by Ashurk on Sudan.

"That Ashurk is intimidating me," Alexander VI said to his secretary. "His master in Constantinople is planning a war to try to destroy the entire Christian civilization, and he is the Bayese. Pioneer II, but if they think that intimidation can scare me, it ’s wrong. "

"All Sultans think of themselves as the king of kings," looking at the dull face of the pope, Nomelo pondered the words. "Maybe you should not be too harsh on Sudan himself. A more flexible attitude is sometimes better. . "

"Nomelo, if you think so, then you are totally wrong," Alexander VI interrupted the secretary politely. "I did this for a reason, you have to understand if I even expose a little Cowardice and concession, those enemies who are staring at me at any time will take the opportunity to attack me mercilessly, and they will put all responsibility on me. They will attack me on the pretext of my weakness, even if possible They will launch someone else to take charge of the cardinal, and as long as I wait patiently for me to die, the person they are satisfied with can become the pope. "

Nomelo nodded silently. He knew that someone named by Alexander VI was actually Old Rovere.

The temporary alliance only allows the contradiction between the two sides to be suppressed. Perhaps with a small excuse at a certain time, the two parties that were originally tolerant can be completely exploded.

And Nomelo also had to admit that the Pope actually made a lot of sense.

Perhaps others could compromise because of the Ottomans ’strong concessions, but as the common leader of the entire Christ world, Alexander VI, the Pope, could only fight.

This may not be his original intention, but it is the only correct and the only way to choose ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ Otherwise, just a crime of surrendering to the believers is enough to make Alexander VI the rarest in the history of the Holy See One of those popes who was ousted.

"Then you decide how to respond to these conditions proposed by Sudan," Nomelo's look at the letter, etched in gold foil on the table, is just these precious materials and the long list of dizzying titles at the beginning. , It is enough to show the luxury and majesty of Eastern Sudan.

"Yes, I have figured out how to respond," Alexander VI stood up and walked back and forth in the room. "I must make everyone aware of the conditions that Bayeseert II put forward to the Holy See, and even more so Let everyone understand what huge danger they are facing. "

"Are you planning a jihad?" Nomelo stared at Alexander VI in amazement. Although he knew this was unlikely, the Pope's determined attitude made him think it was not just his cranky thoughts.

"Jihad?" Alexander VI asked back, and then waved his hand. "If this was 5 centuries ago, if I were the great Urban II, maybe I would do it, even if I was 1oo years ago. Do this, but now this is impossible. "

Alexander VI shook his head slightly, said a little bit lonely, but then a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes: "Although we cannot move a jihad, it does not mean that the Sudan can do whatever it wants."

Alexander VI said to give orders to his secretary.

"Write a letter to Giovanni telling him to end the war with the Venetians as soon as possible, and tell them that I will call a cardinal meeting."

"Your Majesty."

Nomi House bowed slightly, and when he looked up, he just saw the gleam of excitement in the eyes of the pope staring at the cross on the wall.
