Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

In March 1502, the apparently warm spring temperatures gave Iberia a little hope for spring.

Although the harvest in the first year was unsatisfactory, so this year's spring cultivation is not optimistic, but people still look forward to a good start.

Whether it is Castile or the largest city in the south of the Iberian Peninsula, Seville has gradually become lively.

The well-connected waterways provide convenient transportation for Seville. The Atlantic Ocean in the west and the Mediterranean Sea in the south respectively gather Seville ’s criss-cross rivers to transport a large number of goods from coastal cities to this Iberia. Commodity transfer station in South Asia.

This made Sevilla even the busiest place in the southwestern corner of the European continent, even in the center of war.

But because of this, Seville has also become a problem in Gonzalo's mind.

Since Don Bavi abandoned the negotiations and fled back to the south, Gonzalo, who was ordered to rebel, launched a fierce attack on the Andalusian noble rebels centered on Seville.

Within a short period of half a month, the rebels had taken a violent blow while taking advantage of Gonzalo ’s departure from Andalusia. Rebels in many places encountered the merciless model army led by Gonzalo himself. Strike, the rebels in some places had to be forced to give up their strongholds and retreat to Seville, and some rebels who were lucky enough to retreat to the stubborn reliance on solid fortresses could only rely on the high walls to wait for the final destruction.

Gonzalo reversed the disadvantage of Andalusia almost overnight.

This made the court of Valladolid very happy. Even Ferdinand, who was very interested in the result, had to write a handwritten letter expressing praise and gratitude to Gonzalo with a complicated mood.

In his letter, Ferdinand highly praised Gonzalo's superb commanding art and loyalty to the queen. In order to express his trust and appreciation for Gonzalo, he called Gonzalo "the other father of Juana", while Writes: "In the pre-Queens era, your loyalty was admirable. I believe you also brought this kind of loyalty to the present queen. This kind of loyalty can make the Cordoba family a model for the generation of kingdom nobles. . "

Such an obvious suggestion by a king was enough to make many people jealous and crazy. For those people, Ferdinand is undoubtedly making a public guarantee, at least in the reign of one or two generations of monarchs that can be seen, Ke The prestigious status of the Cordova family should not be shaken.

It was just that after the letter was sent to Gonzalo, it was said that the commander simply smiled innocently after reading it and stuffed the letter into the drawer.

After this result was passed back to Badia Ridod, although Ferdinand had nothing to say, according to some insiders, the king ugly left the party he was attending immediately, and then for a long time. I didn't see anyone.

Gonzalo apparently used this almost contemptuous and unreasonable act to send Ferdinand and everyone an obvious signal that the glory of the Cordoba family does not need to be guaranteed from anyone.

This is indeed an arrogant act, but compared with his arrogant attitude of not taking anyone at all in the past, this time there is actually nothing too much to say.

But Ferdinand clearly doesn't think so.

In Ferdinand's view, the more powerful the model army that Gonzalo possesses, the greater the potential threat.

Even after Isabella's death, the model army, who was instructed to station not far from Bariaridold, had already revealed this threat to the court.

This is why Gonzalo seems to be so high-spirited, but Ferdinand still tolerates him as much as possible. After all, no one knows whether the cronist army of Gonzalo, not far from Barriado, will make anything. Unexpected behavior of people.

Apart from irritating Gonzalo's ignorance, Ferdinand was even more irritated by Isabella's favor with this person at the time.

It was her uncontrollable daring that helped Gonzalo to develop such a reckless attitude, and sometimes Ferdinand even wondered whether there was an unspeakable relationship between the two.

Although this idea is more or less out of anger, it can be seen that Ferdinand actually has little solution for Gonzalo today.

He could not bring this man back from the front line, nor could he arbitrarily change his position, because the previous fighting in Andalusia has proved that even with a well-trained model army, but because of the lack of Gonzalo, the commander of this army In addition, the model army cannot exert its actual power.

Perhaps this situation will gradually change in a few years, and as more and more familiar with the characteristics of these new army, more and more generals will be good at commanding these troops.

But at least for now, it is only Gonzalo that can really play the power of the model army.

This fact frustrated Ferdinand. He felt that he had been blackmailed by Gonzalo, but after releasing the obvious goodwill to actively improve the bad relationship between the two sides, Gonzalo responded as obvious as contempt. So Ferdinand had to leave the party immediately, otherwise he might have made any abnormal behavior under the general public because he couldn't control his anger.

But even so, Gonzalo's coldness to Ferdinand made King Aragon's disgrace in public became a well-known joke of Valladolid. As a hero who was not afraid of power in their minds, some people spread the words that he originally mocked Ferdinand as "a king of a small country" in public. For a time, the term "king of a small country" became a unique synonym for Ferdinand. .

It was at this time that the Sicilian messenger mission arrived in Bariaridot.

The Sicilian envoys who were supposed to wait for news in Zaragoza obviously did n’t want to waste their time, so when the Aragonese expressed the hope that they would stay in Zaragoza and wait for the king to reply, Elliott demanded that it was of great importance. The king himself must be seen in person.

The Zaragoza court had no choice but to send someone to lead them to Barriado.

Elliott ’s actions were quick, and he took his sturdy diplomatic team to Valladolid in a short time, which was not even slower than the previous messenger who sent Ferdinand the State Book How many.

The slightly eccentric atmosphere in the city of Barrialdo quickly caught Elliott ’s attention and did n’t even need to specifically ask what happened recently, but as long as you pay careful attention, you will get a lot of useful news from the street.

The eccentric relationship between King Aragon and Castilla was certainly not a secret, so Elliott did n’t care too much when he heard about it, but with a visit, Elliott changed attitude.

Tiego and Elliott are also old friends. The unpleasant first meeting with Ruosha at sea changed the fate of Tiego, which made Tiego feel quite sighed every time he recalled. He had wanted to see more than once if he had n’t been robbed by a ship led by Ruo Sha, or rejected the invitation to his brother and sister because he was cautious and timid.

"If that's the case, I'm still just a little businessman in Balearic. I'm running around all day to support my family. Maybe I can earn hundreds of florins a year. I'm so happy that I don't know what to do. Of course, I don't have the chance to meet the honorable Lu Duchess Na. "

Sitting in a house arranged by the Castilians for the Sicilian Embassy, ​​Tieggio said with emotion that he nodded slightly when he saw Elliott seeming to feel the same, and continued: "Even we are all the same , The dukes and siblings have changed the fate of too many of us, and sometimes I even think about what would happen to us if they did n’t exist or they failed. "

The muscles on Elliott ’s cheeks shook inconspicuously. He glanced at Ego diligently. Elliott knew very well that as the earliest member of the trade union, Taranto had been deeply involved with the trade union. Entangled together.

In the early years, Taranto needed to take advantage of the favorable terrain located at the estuary of the Adriatic Sea to threaten Venice to provide sufficient support for himself. After becoming a member of the trade union, Taranto's role was even more important.

Now Taranto wants to curb the Venetian ties with the Mediterranean, and has to comply with the interests of the trade union as much as possible. At the same time, it has to monitor the movements of the Ottomans from the eastern Mediterranean and prevent the Ottoman navy from reaching the western Mediterranean.

Especially after Venice's defeat in the Mediterranean, Taranto needed to rely on the protection of the trade union in case of possible invasion by the Ottomans.

It is for this reason that Earl Husson will support Russa unreservedly, because in the eyes of the old earl, as long as the trade union remains strong, Taranto ’s security will be rock solid.

Now Thiego suddenly said something like this. Although Elliott knew that this man seemed to have a close relationship with the siblings of the Duke of Rome Theseia, he became more cautious.

"We have a strong alliance with Her Majesty the Queen," Elliott felt that he should make clear some things. "As the Queen's trusted messenger, I also have an obligation to protect the interests of Her Majesty."

Tiego nodded in relief. He moved the chair forward again to bring him closer to Elliott, then lowered his voice and said, "Since we are all in the interests of the queen and the duke, then I I feel that we need to be more honest with each other. "

Elliott looked suspiciously at Tiego. He could probably guess that this person might have a deeper relationship with Alexander ’s siblings, but he could n’t understand for a while that they needed to “be more honest with each other”.

"You come from Sicily, I think you can make some things more interesting," Thiego said, leaning forward again. "I have a friend who could have helped you complete your mission more smoothly, but unfortunately He has just left Barrialdod, I ’m talking about Don Marcos Byrne, the royal private treasurer, and he is now in Lisbon to negotiate. "

Tyoe's words made Elliot happy and then disappointed. Although he felt that the businessman seemed to be teasing him, he listened patiently.

Sure enough, Tiego continued: "Fortunately, the Treasury Officer has some friends. They also have a prominent position in the Castilla Palace to help you."

"So what do I need to pay?" Elliott asked carefully.

"You don't need to do anything specific, just chat with those people, you are from Sicily, that's enough, and you are the heir to Count Taranto, which is even better, because you and this thing look There is no direct relationship. "

"Do you want me to spread rumors?" Elliott immediately guessed the purpose of the businessman in front of him. He was annoyed and seemed to be insulted, but he calmed down again when he looked at Teague's smile. This matter is related to the Queen? "

"Accurately it is related to the Duke, but you should know that the Queen and the Duke are a family, uh, I mean that their brother and sister have a good relationship ... In short, their interests are the same, so you know, I believe if the queen knows It will support our cooperation. "Tiegeau said while taking out a handkerchief that sprayed the perfume that is very popular in Iberia and wiped the sweat from the sun in March on the forehead.

Elliott looked a bit strangely at a businessman who seemed a little uncomfortable. Although he felt that his appearance suddenly became weird, he accepted his words.

No one denies that the brothers and sisters are the soul of the trade union. They first used gold, and then used sword and fire to lead the trade union to set off a huge wave in the Mediterranean Sea. Now the trade union is like a crazy and unstoppable giant in all directions. Stretching out their tentacles, some people even worry that the trade union will hurt itself if it stops.

So today's trade union is impossible to stop, whether it is Alexandria or Ruosha, or no one can stop the development of this behemoth. For this reason, Wallachia, as an important stronghold of the trade union in eastern Europe, even spares no effort Through the victory of Sicily ’s victory, he proposed to Aragon the conditions for the opening of the Strait of Brodo, in order to be able to connect with the coastal ports of Northern Europe and Western Europe in the future, as a way to march farther east. ready.

Elliott sometimes even whimsically wondered whether the trade union would not hesitate to challenge the powerful Ottoman empire for tremendous benefits if it could no longer expand, and at that time, what would the trade union look like? .

But these are too far away. Elliott shook his head secretly. He looked at Thiegos and licked his lips and said, "I am an aristocrat. I am a knight who swears to God sincerely. I cannot bear lies. You ca n’t deliberately make a lie yourself. This is a mean move. "

Tiego immediately showed a disappointed look on his face. He shook his head helplessly and seemed frustrated, but he didn't move, and still sat there looking at Elliott.

"but……"

Sure enough, Tiego thought so, but he leaned forward even more.

"If this matter is related to the Queen and the Duke, it is related to the entire trade union, which is too important to all of us, I think God will forgive me," Elliott asked Thiego after he finished. To "So what do you ask me to do?"

Elliott from Taranto was an elegant nobleman, and he soon became good friends with some of the nobles of Valladolid.

He tells them about Italian styles, describes the artistic atmosphere of Florence, the experience of Venice, Genoa and Naples, and the prosperity of Milan and the extravagance of Rome ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ This makes Iberian "Tube buns" was fascinated by the young nobleman.

Soon Elliott became a guest in some of Castilla's distinguished homes. During his interaction with this Italian guest, the Castilians also soon heard something about Sicily and Venice. Rumours circulating in Crete.

It is said that some people originally referred to Gonzalo Cordova as "contemporary Belisaru".

When he heard this, Ferdinand only sneered.

But when he went on to hear that someone called that person "Ergabalus of Castile", Ferdinand fell into contemplation.

Elagabalus was a general, commander and hero of the ancient Roman Empire, and the Romans adore this general in a frenzy.

However, these are not places that worry Ferdinand. He is worried about later.

Later, Elagabalus, usurped the throne of the Roman emperor.
