Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

The turbulent situation on the Mediterranean Sea makes many people do not understand. Around this ocean, all kinds of huge changes are happening in both the east and the west.

The unusual changes at the end of 1501 were dazzling, whether it was the turmoil in Iberia, the struggle for power on both sides of the Bosphorus, or the various disputes that occurred on the Balkans and the Apennines. All want to vent their dissatisfaction with others during the year.

The French army has gradually withdrawn from the Apennine peninsula, whether on land or at sea. What made the emperor Maximian angry was that the French army received the secret cooperation and even blatant help of Rome Thesia and Naples and the Italian southern alliance.

Today, Italy has formed a line centered on Palma, extending west to Genoa, and east to the border of the Po River to Venice.

To the north of this line, the trade union has defaulted to the area where the French army is fighting with its enemies, and crossing this line has become the sphere of influence of the trade union.

This does not seem to be a loss at all. After all, the Trade Union generously ceded the most fertile Lombardy area. Maximian can again fight with the French army for this site, and the Trade Union is subject to a treaty with both parties. Restrictions cannot actively participate in the next war.

But what annoys Maximian is that Gombrane, Duke of Thesia, publicly announced support for his brother-in-law Constantine de la Rovere ’s appeal to the crown of the Duke of Milan, which was really disgusting to Maximian.

A Duke of Milan with a strong background family, this only needs to be considered to be able to make Maximian violently. After all, his coveted Milan has been a secret for many years, only because of all kinds of scruples and not enough perfect excuses. The annexation of Milan cannot be publicly announced like the French.

Now that Rovere has taken a fancy to the throne of the Duke of Milan, this made the emperor who had just had a close relationship with the old Rovere suddenly hate the family.

The French army today is almost unscrupulous sailing on the Tyrrhenian Sea. The Genoa captains who had always found them in trouble before have already received the promise of the Queen of Naples. Ruosha promised them that they would give greater compensation to the Genoa exiles. In exchange for their temporary patience and cooperation with the French.

And these compensations have now begun to be gradually realized.

The navy of the Genoese exiles joined the Fleet of the Trade Union. Not only have they landed in Sicily, but also in accordance with the agreement between the Trade Union and the French, the Genoese nobles in exile have a place to live in Sardinia.

"Friendship and hatred can be exchanged for a price, the difference is only how much to bid for," Alexander said in a letter to Ruo Sha. It seems that it is not very important to appease the Genoa exiles, but it is deeper. The intention is the result of careful consideration of the two brothers and sisters. "The Genoese can provide us with a ready-made maritime power, which will play an important role in our future acquisition of Sicily, and let them guard Sardinia. Beware of threats from France and Aragon. "

Now a trade alliance fleet is cruising in the waters between Sicily and Tunisia. The fleet is not large. Their task is to be more alert to the Aragonese navy that may return, because most of Sicily today Has been occupied by the trade union.

The Sicilian Governor, Flamensa, became a captive of the Trade Union. Many of the officials he promoted earlier turned into a rebellion immediately after the appearance of the Trade Union Fleet. This made Flamenza sold completely without preparation.

So that when the trade alliance's fleet entered Palermo, he was still giving orders to the officers he thought would be loyal to himself, but the answer was that the troops were landing without fighting and guarding the city of Palermo. The Aragonese garrison was deliberately deceived by local noble officials who had colluded with the trade union, and was caught off guard by the Naples army who landed quickly on the coast of Cape Gallo, west of Palermo.

Flamenza finally had to retreat to the palace, but after the persuasion of Sicily's former wife, Gomez, Flamenza finally chose to open the door and surrender.

Ruosha complied with the promise of Flamenza, and she agreed that the hapless governor would leave Sicily with his wife and all his private property. As for whether he was going to return to Aragon or because of fear of severe punishment for dereliction of duty, he would go into exile. His land was not what Rusha cared about.

When Flamenza left, he asked again to see the Queen of Naples, and it was slightly unexpected for Zuosha that although she was attacked, Flamenza did not seem to be surprised by the trade union ’s actions, and his property was surprisingly many. Most of them are easy to carry gold coins, precious stones and all kinds of things that are not bulky.

Even Ruosha heard that the governor carried a small box that seemed to be important and filled with thick various deeds, which made Ruosha feel that Flamenza had already done a good job for this day. Ready.

"Your Majesty, the performance that belongs to me is over, but you have just stepped onto the stage," Flamenza didn't appear depressed when she met, and there was even a trace of ease. "You and your alliance did capture Sicily, but Next is the most important thing, and I wish you all the best. "

Flamenca left Sicily in this way, he boarded a ship sailing to Europe, and with his young wife and huge property gradually disappeared into the depths of the Mediterranean, from then on he disappeared out of sight of everyone, No one knows where this first is the last Governor of Sicily.

Of course very satisfied with such a result of the trade union, Palermo ’s capture meant the end of the rule of Sicily by the Aragon family of the Astamara family.

From now on, it is the beginning of the Naples line of the Astamara family to become the ruler of Sicily.

On December 1, 1501, Queen of Naples Russa Cosenza Astemara announced the abolition of the rule and governorship of the Sicilian Kingdom of Aragon and proclaimed herself Queen of Sicily.

The two Sicilian kingdoms officially announced their reunification!

The fall of Sicily brought the raging anger of King Ferdinand of Aragon. He quickly ordered the formation of an army to prepare for an expedition to Sicily. At the same time, he ordered the Aragonese fleet in the eastern Mediterranean to return quickly to find a trade alliance fleet.

Although Ferdinand was angry, he did not lose his mind. While preparing for an expedition to Sicily, he ordered the fleet to actively seek the alliance to prepare for a decisive battle at sea.

Especially after hearing that Queen Naples Cosenza Astarama actually led the fleet to invade Sicily, Ferdinand again severely ordered his fleet to crack down on the alliance's maritime forces.

"Block Sicily, block Palermo and Messina," Ferdinand kept circling in circles while thinking, dictating his command "to destroy their fleet and block the trade union army on the island, Especially that Zuosha Kosencha, maybe we can borrow the power of the emperor, if possible, maybe Naples opened the door to me. "

Listening to the king talking to himself, the clerk who was recording could not help but stopped and looked at Ferdinand blankly.

Perhaps he was aware of the clerk's movements, and Ferdinand remembered that he seemed to have said his thoughts. He waved to the clerk to signal that he should not write this paragraph, and then said: "Let They temporarily let go of those pirates, and now those pagan pirates are not the most important anymore, and without Sicilian pirates makes no sense to us. "

Speaking of this, Ferdinand stopped abruptly, and he asked the attendant who was standing beside him, "Is that the Duke of Rome Thesea Gombré the brother of Queen Naples?"

"The half-brother," the entourage whispered, "and they are said to have a good relationship."

"I also heard about this," Ferdinand wondered. He didn't know how much Alexander had to do with the annexation of Sicily in Naples, and more importantly, what role did Pope Alexander VI play. "Maybe I Too kind to them, betrayed even tolerated them all the time, but not now. "

Ferdinand said indignantly, and at the same time annoyed and glanced at the small palace that did not move much in the distance.

There is now the center of power in Castile and Isabella has moved to the summer palace on a hillside not far from the palace after handing over power to her palace, where the queen will continue to heal and retreat.

This should have been a good thing for Ferdinand, but Isabella's move to give power to Gong Xiang before he left was very annoying.

Now that something has happened in Sicily, Ferdinand has to consider returning to Zaragoza to take charge of the overall situation. After all, there are too many things to decide in order to start a war. He is not possible in Castile and So. Handle such a major state affairs conveniently.

It ’s just that Isabella ’s current situation made him feel uneasy. Ferdinand was worried about what might happen during the time he left. Somehow, he had a faint feeling. It seemed that there was something that made people unable to do anything. Explain the link.

Ferdinand didn't know if he was over hearted, but he couldn't take risks, which made him very embarrassed for a while, until another news that seemed to have nothing to do with him came from the East.

Rebellion broke out inside the Ottoman Empire, and a person who is said to be the son of Jem suddenly appeared in the eastern Ottoman Empire. This person formed an alliance with Shaun Ismail I of the Safavid Persian Empire. Their common enemy is Pakistan. Selim, the son of Jesse II.

This news made Mahamad, who was on an expedition to Mamluk, Egypt, overjoyed by surprise. He felt that he finally had a rare chance to defeat his biggest opponent.

In order to seize this opportunity as soon as possible to seize the adversary Selim into desperation, Mahmoud stepped up his offensive against Mamluk, and at the same time spared no expense to the pirate families in the Mediterranean, hoping that they would help Fight against the enemies of Africa on his own, so that he frees up his hands against his brother.

The Hailedin brothers immediately stepped up the looting and destruction along the African coast. Although they also had a good relationship with the Mamluks, this did not prevent them from helping Mehamed's hard lessons before. ally.

Haileiding did not deliberately participate in this maritime invasion against the Mamluks, he now mainly cares about cooperation with the trade union.

From the woman named Connie, Haireding knew the huge plan the trade union was carrying out. Although the other party could not reveal his plan to him completely, Haileding keenly smelled a different taste.

This is different from the previous actions of countries wishing to use their family's strength to fight their opponents. Haileding realized that the trade union's ongoing plan is likely to change the situation in the Mediterranean because the other party specifically asked him to be firm. Was restrained by the Aragonese fleet. Recalling that the other party also made a request to destroy the maritime traffic between Sicily and Aragon, Haileding realized that the other party's target might be Sicily.

Facts proved that his guess was also correct. When the news of the occupation of Sicily by the trade union came, Haileding knew that his opportunity had come.

That Connie also revealed what seems to be happening in the East, and thinking about the various changes in the Mediterranean that may result from this, Hayredin thinks that this may be a good time to realize his dream of building his own country.

Hailedin did not hesitate to reject the proposal of his brothers to attack the Egyptian coast with them, but gathered all his ships and launched a round of the Aragonese fleet on the Mediterranean.

He sent a large number of camouflage fishing boats to explore the whereabouts of the Aragonese fleet. With his familiarity with this sea area and secret contact with many residents on the island, Hai Leiding accurately grasped the timing again and again, and placed orders towards those accidentally. The Aragonese ships launched a crazy attack.

When there are many enemies, his sly escape to the sea, but when the enemy unfortunately fell into his trap, he brutally devoured his prey and destroyed it.

This kind of entanglement is of course very passive for the Aragonese fleet. Although they have great power, they are very troubled by the cunning means of Redding, and because they cannot get rid of this harassment, they have no Opportunity to return to Sicily in time.

When Russa led the trade alliance fleet to Sicily and passed to Toledo, Alexander VI even hummed a small song in front of his servant because of joy. This is certainly not because he has a special affection for Queen Naples. In fact It was the queen who drove him out of the Vatican.

The church is pleased that all this is really what Alexander told him before.

In this way, the Pope's confidence in Alexander's promises increased instantly.

The Pope thinks that the world is really beautiful when he thinks that the Pogia family may be on an equal footing with those ancient and noble royal families in Europe, and that their descendants have the opportunity to be crowned "His Royal Highness" or even "His Majesty".

Although it was soon heard that Ferdinand had ordered an expedition to Sicily, Alexander VI was not very worried this time.

After all, Ferdinand ’s reaction was as expected, and the Queen of Naples still raided Sicily, so the trade union must be prepared to deal with the upcoming war with Aragon.

It is them who should be worried now. Alexander VI doubted whether Ferdinand would use them as a punching bag in anger and angrily. Although there was an agreement with many old nobles who dragged on, no one can guarantee whether anyone will accept Feidi Nan bribes secretly deal with them.

"We are too dangerous here," the pope said to his son-in-law immediately after calming down. "If Ferdinand buys someone, maybe only a few people can kill us."

Alexander admits that the old man ’s fears are correct. After all, the Borgia family is an expert in this kind of conspiracy, but he is not worried because he has been prepared before then.

Two letters with almost the same content have been sent separately, and the recipients are Ferdinand and Don Bavi.

The letter is about the whereabouts of Sister Alft. Although not much is disclosed, anyone who knows the secrets of this paragraph knows exactly what the letter said.

Alexander now only hopes that the letter will not be delivered too late, at least before Ferdinand does his stupid things.

As for Don Bavi, Alexander was not worried about what he would do after knowing the fall of Sister Alft, because according to James, after this period of preparation, he was based on his pirate companions and Columbus. The influence of the call has already led an expedition in Malaga that is not small.

These people are certainly not doing nothing on the shore all day. In fact, they have almost taken over all the river transportation business between the Andalusian noble rebels and the Atlantic port, and the fleet under construction now has at least three large enough to be able to pose a threat on the coast. Armed merchant ship.

"This will allow Don Bavi to calm down even if he knows the nun's whereabouts," Alexander assured the pope. "In fact, I am more worried about the sea now, not the north."

Alexander ’s words gradually strengthened the pope ’s look. He knew that Alexander was talking about the war between the Portuguese and the Castilian army on the border between the two countries.

The French in the north attacked all the way south after crossing the Ebro River. Although the time was slightly different, the Portuguese in the west also began to switch from defensive to counterattack.

This made Gonzalo, who defended the northern front, a bit panicked for a while.

It ’s a pity that the Portuguese ’s advantage did n’t last long. Gonzalo quickly stabilized his position. In the village of Likuvalyo, not far from Zamora, the western city of Castilla, Gonzalo finally seized An ingenious opportunity.

He first invested a large number of musketeers in the village of Likuvalyo ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ and at the same time dug a lot of trench chest walls on the hillside outside the village facing the road.

When the Portuguese army attacked, the Castilians relied on the terrain after the fortifications formed by the trench and the chest wall, and launched a fierce shot at the Portuguese.

"3800 people." Alexander groaned a little when he saw the loss of strength of the Portuguese in the village of Likuvalyo. Gonzalo was much more powerful than he thought.

Manuel was obviously frightened by the sudden defeat. Although he did not immediately propose a ceasefire, he also ordered the army to retreat. As for the agreement with the French, he could no longer care about it.

Gonzalo, who was breathing, immediately swept north, and his goal this time was to invade the French army.

"I'm going north." Alexander said suddenly to the pope.

Looking at Alexander, who seemed to be relaxed after saying this sentence, the Pope who wanted to say something was silent for a while and finally didn't speak.
