Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Vol 5 Chapter 30: Some girls grow up

? Bucharest.

In the spring of 1477, when the last expedition launched by Mohammed II ended in failure in front of the city, the whole of Europe was completely immersed in joy and joy of getting rid of the magic palm.

It was the failure of this expedition that the great monarch of the Ottoman Empire, who had already prepared to march into the hinterland of Europe, had to suspend his ambitious plan. The Sudan took his army from the city of Bucharest, leaving only one piece left Messy and countless tombs that cannot be taken away.

But even at that time, Mohammed II still did not realize that this would be the last battle in his life. He still had a lot of energy and endless ambitions. Sudan ’s eyes were not one of this small country in Southeastern Europe. The fortress is blocking, and his attention is still on the beautiful cities of Vienna, which is not far away, and Western Europe, which is slightly further away.

Bucharest is just a small pause in his great conquest. No one can stop the crescent flag flying across the vast European land. As for those pagans who have not yet conquered, they can only say that they have temporarily escaped the Great Sudan Just punish.

Mohammed at that time deeply believed this, and he would have such confidence because the Ottoman Empire possessed the most powerful army of this era.

The guards with the most advanced military technology, the sturdy and vigorous Sipasi cavalry, and the tribal civilian army that can be pulled into the battlefield at any time to become the main force, and the army of many conquered vassals, these powerful troops are enough to ensure that Sudan can Soon the expedition will be launched again, and at that time, Bucharest will surely be spared!

So people think so, even the Bucharest who have won a big victory, while ecstatic, some people clearly realize that this victory is only short-lived. Once the Ottomans come back, it means the beginning of a real disaster. , Because by that time Sudan must have enough confidence to completely destroy this fortress city.

For this, there is even a word passed down in Bucharest: "Looking at the East, Bucharest is standing by."

But no one thought that an unexpected accident that nobody could avoid saved Bucharest.

After returning to Constantinople, Mohammed II, who was actively preparing for the westward expedition, suddenly fell ill. Then, for several consecutive years, the body of Sudan deteriorated. Finally, four years after the disastrous defeat in Bucharest, the Ottoman Empire The great monarch passed away.

The Westward Expedition was forced to stop, and with the Ottoman Civil War, when Bayesett finally defeated his brother as he wished and took the throne in Sudan, it was more than ten years after he made time to plan the expedition again. .

For more than ten years, Bucharest has changed from a strong and strong fortress into a magnificent city. Just as the Bucharest people said, "Look at the East, Bucharest is standing by", this city has never stopped being vigilant against aliens from the East. It is always ready to meet the terrible intruder.

Now the city has become lively again, just as countless people from all over Europe volunteered to join the army against the Ottomans in order to fight against pagan invasions. After more than ten years, Bucharest has once again become the focus of attention in Europe. Focus.

This time, it was because of the appearance of a Greek princess.

The demise of the Eastern Roman Empire is the most shocking thing in decades. Even if decades have passed, the Europeans will still feel terrified whenever it is mentioned.

As time passed, the original enthusiasm of trying to restore the empire gradually disappeared, and the fall of Greece made the remnants of the Eastern Rome gradually lose hope, and then until the legend about the Greek princess spread again.

About the story of the Greek princess, it has never stopped in recent decades. From the beginning, there will often be women standing out to claim to be that princess, to men standing out to call the descendants of that princess, people ’s expectations have become more and more Weak, and increasingly doubtful about previous rumors, and some people have even begun to question whether this legend is false from the beginning.

But now the story about the princess has been brought up again, and the princess has finally appeared.

Sophia Alexandra Valleolo, the name has been mentioned more and more by people as time goes by.

And with this name, there are many big people who are familiar with them, Bohemia and Hungary ’s King Ladislas II, Wallace ’s Grand Duke Cepes, and many nobles. We, now, have to add a Marquis of Roy? In northern Bosnia.

Compared with those who had arrived in Bucharest early, the emissary of Roy? Arrived late, so when he asked people about the princess, the news he heard was even more confusing.

According to rumors, the Greek princess, known as the "silent princess", seemed to be a dumb girl. This news made the messenger surprised first and then felt that it was not so unacceptable.

Everyone knows that the Greek princess is just a puppet. Is such a girl really a descendant of an emperor? Or is it just a peasant girl found in a backcountry? What brings.

For the relics of Greece, they certainly want to exert their influence by holding out a princess. They need such a flag, and they need an idol that can inspire their morale. Restoration.

And for people such as Ladislas II or Wallace's Grand Duke Cepes, they also need a person with a calling.

Bayesert II ’s ambitions were no less than his father ’s. On the contrary, the Sultan was more stable and planned. While he was busy and conquering the stable land in Banr, he stepped up and ruled the empire he ruled. The frontier moved toward the hinterland of Europe. The unhurried but irresistible way made the Ottoman striker wedged into every corner of the southeastern continent of Europe like a sturdy nail. Even though the Europeans knew Sudan ’s intentions, they were right His cannibalism was at a loss.

At the same time, the emissaries sent by Bayesite traveled imperviously among European courts, provoking conflicts again and again, from Bosnia and Croatia in the Balkans to Wallachia and Moldova, and beyond In the Grand Duchy of Rochia, the messengers of Sudan faithfully performed their duties and upset the entire south-eastern Europe.

It is for this reason that when the rumors about the Greek princess reappeared, those nobles chose to "believe".

At this time, they needed someone who could make them a flag, whether she was a princess or a peasant girl. This girl who appeared suddenly was the last princess of the Valeolle Empire of the Eastern Roman Empire.

The messenger of Roy? Is a monk. Like most orthodox monks, this man always wears a black monk robes all year round, and a very strong rope is tied around his waist, which makes the clothes appear Convenient and able to block the cold wind that comes in, but this rope can also be used as a terrible murder weapon if necessary. In fact, not many people are strangled by this humble rope.

There have been many people who came to Bucharest, most of them Bohemian and Hungarian, which attracted the monk ’s attention. He had heard a lot about the Greek princess who seemed to be with Ladislas II There are close rumors, and it is said that the princess is also a friend of the Queen of Bohemia. Although the news may not be true, but looking at the Bohemians on the main street, the monk still feels that he should report the news as soon as possible. Own master.

Roy? The decision to send an emissary to Bucharest was of course due to the previous visit of the Gilas knight, but the real reason was that he was worried that someone would compete with him for the title of King of Bosnia.

According to Giras' hint, if Roy? Refused their invitation, then the nobles who gathered in Bucharest might choose to support one of his opponents, although the Kostenic family trying to compete with him for the Bosnian crown is not a fear. , But if the Kostenich family really got the support of those big nobles, things might have to change.

Roy? You can ignore the Kostenich family, but you must not ignore the influence of the Grand Duke of Wallachia or even the King of Hungary.

Now seeing the current scene in Bucharest, the monk went deeper into the idea that the Greek princess might have the support of the Hungarian king. He wrote in great detail what he saw and heard and sent it back to North Bosnia. The monk in the letter made a suggestion that seemed quite tempting to his master: "Maybe you might consider marrying this princess, although it seems a bit ridiculous now, because no one knows the true identity of this princess, but If only a marriage contract can get you a crown and a lot of support, this will undoubtedly be the most cost-effective. "

The monk thought that his suggestion was very novel. At least when the princess had n’t really appeared in people ’s eyes, he first thought of such a slightly risky, but a little success but a lot of benefits, but he did not think In fact, many people have the same ideas as him.

It doesn't really matter who the princess is. All they need is her appeal and influence. Almost everyone is playing this abacus.

With a puff, some dull beating sound came from a human-shaped target that couldn't be shaken in front of him. Before the smoke from the target spread out, another heavy blow hit it hard.

"If you want to lose your life on the battlefield, work harder." A man's voice came from behind, holding Sophia wrapped in a heavy hemp rope sword, turning around, looking at the short-haired man behind him. A man.

"Preparation, impact, defense, evasion, you must learn to protect yourself and not only the enemy in your eyes, the only way to prove victory is that the enemy dies and you can survive, otherwise everything is in vain." The man walked over from Sophia's hand Li took the wooden sword lightly, and after lifting it, suddenly lifted it and cut it towards the target in front of him. At the same time, he moved flexibly under his feet, and often moved to another position when the target was still shaking after being hit. Continue to cut down, for a while, the humanoid target was shaken uncontrollably.

Sophia watched silently, her eyes fixed on the man's footsteps, and her empty hands unconsciously imitated his gestures to make small movements.

"Bang", again, the humanoid target was beaten back suddenly, but this time the man did not move his foot, but continued to hit hard again. With the sound of the wood breaking, the target finally couldn't bear the continuous blow, and it cracked from the root.

The man threw away his half-cut wooden sword, which was also disconnected from the rope, and then raised his sleeves and stepped on the sweat beads that came out of his forehead.

Sophia raised her hand. She first pointed under her chest and then turned her hand around her forehead again.

"Yes, Sophia, I have something to worry about," looked at the Sophia man and nodded. "You probably don't think how many people are thinking of you now. Now we have to face not only the Ottomans, but also our own group Greedy guy. "

Looking at the man in front of her, Sophia smiled, but before she could "open again", a maid came in a hurry: "His Royal Highness, Her Majesty has come down."

A flash of displeasure flashed in the man's eyes, but soon disappeared. He very solemnly packed his clothes. When he buttoned the last button, a woman in a dress was already accompanied by the maids. The room in front walked into the courtyard.

Bohemia and the Queen of Hungary, Joina of Naples looked at the two people standing in the courtyard, and her eyebrows shook slightly inadvertently.

Although the man was unhappy, and even had a gloomy face, he bowed to the queen, but the queen's attitude seemed to be more indifferent. Except for nodding like a perfunctory, all her attention was on Sophia.

"Your Majesty, please allow me to resign." The man saluted again. He knew that the queen did not really like him. If it was not her husband who needed to cooperate with him, perhaps the queen would not allow Sophia to come and go with him.

"Duke, I hope you will consider bringing something suitable for the young lady next time you visit, instead of these," the queen said, looking at the weapons around the courtyard. "Please use this as a queen's advice."

"Follow your instructions," the man bowed again, but when he looked up to leave, he happened to see Sophia secretly smiling at him.

"Why do you fiddle with those weapons again?" The queen asked with some reproach as she looked at the man's leaving. Her eyes fell on Sophia's head, watching the weird French style with her hair completely on top of her head, Queen. Slightly touched those thick hairs. "If you let me know who made you look like this, I will fine her to cut the wool for a lifetime, but speaking of it, those sheep look more pleasing than you are now. "

Sophia watched the queen stretch out her hands silently, but couldn't stop. She didn't gather her arms around the queen's back until the queen reluctantly put her in her arms.

"God, you are lighter, I really don't know where a girl's strength is," the queen struggled hard, her pair of majestic chests squeezed hard by Sophia's same majestic chest, Then the queen reached out and patted Sophia's head lightly, "I didn't expect it to grow taller."

Sophia smiled in her eyes, and she liked the sentence.

Sophia, already 14 years old.

The 14-year-old girl is growing up, regardless of her body shape or appearance, and the girl who has quickly changed from a young to a young youth almost looks like a day.

Originally healthier than other girls, the body became more plump and full of youthful vitality, and the height dwarfed by other women in the past was rapidly rising.

The childish childishness is quietly fading away, and a charm that is more seductive than that of the same year is creeping up to her eyebrows.

At the age of 14, this is a moment when a child turns into a girl, and for Sophia, this year has also been the biggest change in her 14 years so far.

As the most favored maid of the queen's side in recent years, Sophia has been endlessly loved by the queen, which even makes her own children secretly jealous.

According to the queen, she saw what she was like when she was young.

"You don't need to learn how to use those swords, because I promised Nashan would protect you," the queen gave Sophia her arms and let her take her arms. "Your armor should also be put away because Bucharest today There are tens of thousands of people in armor who are preparing to serve you. "

The Queen said to stop, she looked at Sophia with her head tilted slightly, but her eyes were stunned with surprise. "Who can think of you like this now? I will never forget when you first came to Prague." What it was like, although you looked energetic at the time, but I can see that you are like a beast with a wounded head, but now you are completely different, believe me Sophia You are eligible to get whatever you want, and of course include anyone. "

The queen sighed slightly, she did not know what fate her husband's decision would bring to the girl in front of her.

The queen was obsessed with Nashan.

This obsession not only left her with Nashan but also gave him the important position of captain of the guard, and even became very fond of his daughter.

It's just that the Queen never thought that things would change, and the origin of all this was caused by the fact that she took Sophia from Prague to Hungary.

When Ladislas II heard that Sophia was coincidentally involved with the legend about the Greek princess ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ The king immediately realized that this was a rare opportunity, and with his intentional impetus, about Greece The rumors of the princess spread like wildfire.

And now they have come to Bucharest, waiting for Sophia, it will be a completely different future.

A man walked out of the castle and saw him, and a waiter waiting by the road immediately greeted him and covered him with a thick cloak.

"Master, today the queen came back early," the entourage followed behind the man and shrugged his shoulders. "I can see that I am a little upset waiting for you here. It seems that she doesn't like you."

"I don't like her either," the man said coldly. "This queen takes care of our little princess very closely, but this is not a good thing. Know that the Greek princess belongs to us and should not be the decoration in the Prague court. "

"Sir, the Marquis of Roiss? Bosnia sent a monk." The entourage handed a letter to the master.

The man took the letter and pulled off the wax seal. The beginning of the letter jumped into the eye: "Dear Grand Duke Cepes of Wallachia, I salute you in the name of my master Roy? Marquis ..."
