Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Along the coastline, it first turned east and then turned northeast. At this time, the Mediterranean Sea was blowing a violent southwest wind, which made the sailing much smoother. Even without full sails, the sea boat could cut through the waves.

The journey from Malaga to Valencia is very smooth, because it is always sailing along the coastline, so the bow and mast are always surrounded by large groups of seagulls, these seagulls cry out loudly and pounce from the boat into the sea, in After catching the fish in the water, he quickly flew on the bow and settled, and then continued to pounce into the water after eating all the food.

However, these seagulls obviously also brought a lot of trouble to travelers, and the bird droppings that fell from the top of the head from time to time made the people on the boat curse, and because of their reasons, they were often far away, probably because of the seagulls. Zhen Zhen's tweets and hovering were found by the enemy.

This reminded Alexander that it seemed that from a very early age, there was a position on the ship dedicated to driving these seagulls. Those who were dispatched to perform this task were very good archers. These people used a kind of sharp whistling. The arrows shot and threatened the seabirds that had been hovering around the ship to drive them away.

In this way, Alexander had an idea. He asked Sher to select several good-looking hunting guards from the Balkans, and then let them work shifts on the ship to deal specifically with those seabirds.

Listening to the incessant gunshots from time to time, and looking at the bird corpses that were occasionally shot down after a long time, Alexander felt that he should pay attention to the accuracy of the flintlock.

The muskets of this era have not yet appeared rifled, or even if it is indeed ignorant of the precise problem of firearms, but because of various craftsmanship, this problem cannot be solved for a while.

Alexandria had two short muskets given to him by the Shao Sha. This kind of killing weapon that was exquisitely crafted like a work of art was not really the gems and exquisite carvings inlaid on the gun, but this These are two weapons that are actually engraved with convolute rifles and can be loaded from the breech.

Only after seeing the two muskets that were completely hand-crafted by skilled craftsmen, Alexander knew that such a thing was destined to be only a luxury gift. If you want to use this technology in mass production, It is obviously unrealistic to equip troops on a large scale in this era.

In fact, it is surprising that in this era of enlightenment, which has just begun to touch a lot of firearms, in a variety of whimsical and even whimsical designs, there is a popular front-mounted breech gun that was once on the battlefield. Going on the road.

This convenient method of replacing the special medicine pack as a gunpowder filling was very popular as soon as it appeared. Although special medicine packs of different loadings have been popularized in the army of Alexandria, he is still very surprised by the people of this era. active mind.

Alexander even saw a strange artillery like a revolver on the ship he currently locked in the city. This thing made him almost burst out the technology of the burst firearm that Zuosha was proud of, but soon he found out, This artillery is not so much an old-fashioned revolver as it is a smaller original Katyusha rocket.

In order to understand the power of this artillery, Alexander used a small bag of gold coins to get a chance to observe the shooting of live ammunition, and then he saw the spectacular scene of several artillery shells shooting out at the same time.

"It seems that we still underestimated the Castilians," Alexander said to Sher next to him after watching the era shooting. Looking at some gaffey guards who were also shocked by the shooting, Alexander showed a little emotion. I believe that Gompati must want to see this weapon. "

Sher nodded, he felt that this artillery was a little scary, imagining that if he was fighting an enemy with such a weapon, he believed that even the Balkans would feel terrified.

"But don't worry," Alexander said to the somewhat sullen Balkans. "If you look closely, you will find that this artillery has a seemingly small but important shortcoming when shooting. If these connected barrels are Because the shooting time of the shells will cause the whole artillery to shake, so that it will not be shot accurately. "

Shear moved her lower lip. He would like to say that if facing a dense formation, even if there are some deviations, there will not be too much problem, but looking at the Duke does not seem to care very much. Slowly let go of his heart.

"Isabella's army is indeed more difficult to deal with than I thought, but I believe that as long as the two sides do not form a great gap in weapons, the key to victory is often here."

Alexander pointed to his forehead. He never underestimated the Spanish army, and he did not dare to take Gonzalo lightly. Then, as he said, when the two sides are almost the same in weapon technology, the winner is the general ’s command. Art and army fighting level.

"We will win them, maybe it will be difficult, but we will win in the end."

Alexandria was still interested in looking at the artillery, and two dull gunshots came. The sharp seagull screams did not go away for a long time, and Alexander ’s eyes had already turned to a promontory protruding into the sea. .

Turning there, the sea boat will go north all the way, which also proves that Valencia is not far away.

Peloto Cardron has obviously felt a little depressed these days, even angry.

In the days after returning to Valencia, he made various hints to Maria de Luna more than once, even once he took the initiative to block Maria de while he was alone. · Luna asked her why she ignored her in a questioning tone.

But what surprised Cardron was that the Duchess of Gandino was very kind to rebuke him, and even warned him that if he continued to struggle with himself, he would let him "know and know how powerful".

This made Cardron realize that things might not be the same as he had thought before. Maria de Luna obviously did n’t want to have anything to do with him anymore. She treated him like a lover who was played with by the ladies. The same was left aside, which Cadron had never thought of before.

If it was said that Cardron had been entangled with the Duchess again because of his own anxiety, then he is now angered by his neglect.

He doubted whether the Duchess had a new marriage, and after secretly paying attention, he really found out all the clues.

The businessman named Tiego was very suspicious. Without any evidence, almost entirely by virtue of the "sniff", Cadron quickly set the target of suspicion on Tiego, especially It was after hearing that the businessman had invested a large amount of money to help the Duchess build a large-scale luxury workshop in the territory of the Duke of Gandino, and Calderon firmly believed that he had not guessed wrong.

Thiego did not know that he had become a nail in Cardron's eyes. He was somewhat overconfident in himself, and he and Maria de Luna were indeed very careful, since Alexander VI returned to Valencia After that, they never had a meeting again, and every time he came to see the Duchess he was very careful.

Tiego enjoys this almost secret relationship with Maria de Luna, especially when she thinks that she is a widow from the Borgia family, he is more excited, which gives Tiego a sense of inexplicable accomplishment .

But now he is more concerned about the upcoming meeting of Alexander and the Pope. Normezi has been sent to a villa in the Valencia countryside, where he can retreat, which is somewhat beneficial to his growing illness. .

Normezi has completed his mission, and in the following days, he can receive news from Uliu sent from Bariaridot almost every two or three days, think about it from Castilla The bad traffic from the capital to Valencia, you can know how much effort Uliu spent to send everything that happened in Bariarito to Valencia in such a timely manner.

Philip ’s symptoms are increasing rapidly. After spending a lot of money, he can get information from the people in the palace that Philip is already bedridden, which is different from what Normezi said before.

According to Normezi, although Philip had been sick before, but because Ferdinand had returned to Bariaridot, Philip had to drag his body tortured by the disease to attend several important royal gatherings.

Philip knew that his father-in-law had always planned to cause him some trouble. He even suspected that Juana had broken his good things many times before, and there might be Ferdinand's conspiracy.

So although he is seriously ill now, he still insists on appearing in front of Ferdinand. He wants to demonstrate to his father-in-law in this way.

But then he finally couldn't hold on. In the news sent by Uliu recently, Philip had not appeared in front of the public for several days, even the people in the court were not very clear about his situation, which made While doubting to what extent his condition had deteriorated, Thiego was also speculating what would happen to Bariari Dodd.

Sure enough, within a few days, when a news that made Tiege extremely excited came, Juana and his mother had an extremely fierce conflict in front of many people.

The cause of the conflict was the Queen, who wanted to send Philip to the highland castle located across the Douro River.

The Highland Castle was a mountain fortress that defended Barrialdod in the early years. The unique location allows this castle to control many of the city ’s main roads on the Douro River. Later, as the situation changed, Barrialdod was no longer Outside threats, the Highland Castle gradually lost its function. It used to be a prison for prisoners, but it was changed to a palace in the time of Isabella.

Isabella insisted on sending Philip to the Highland Castle for treatment. This is not so much for the patient, it is more because Juana.

Although Uliu ’s description is not detailed enough, just look at Normezi, Tiego can roughly capture how bad Philip is now, but according to Uliu ’s news, Juana is inseparable all day long Stayed beside her husband, even though he was already at this time.

Wuliu spent money to find a doctor who had treated Philip. When referring to the patient ’s condition, the doctor tried to refuse to describe it several times because of uneasiness and fear, but Wuliu still got such a description from him. "We don't know where this terrible disease came from, it looks like a body cursed by the devil, but the princess has always stood by the prince, she even kissed the rotten and purulent lips with her lips. Sore, which makes many people spit out the bile after reading it. "

Because of this, Isabella had to order Philip to be sent to Highland Castle because of fear of the spread of this terrible disease, which completely angered Juana, so that she publicly communicated with Isabella in front of many people. Fierce clashes occurred.

The anger made Isabella order her to be imprisoned after scolding her daughter, while Ferdinand, who had just returned to Bariaridod, suddenly expressed support for Juana's concern for her husband.

He first asked people to send Juana news about Philip every day, and then one day, he asked people to help Juana escape from the palace.

When Isabella knew that everything was too late, Juana fled into the Highland Castle, and then locked herself with Philip in a tower of the castle, even preventing the maid and the doctor from approaching.

In Uliu ’s letter, it was finally written like this: “As of this writing, the queen and the princess are still‘ confronting ’, and at least I still do n’t see who will finally succumb.”

Tiego was very excited. After thinking about sharing the news with Normezi, he went out of town and went to the manor, and he did not find that someone was staring at him secretly.

After confirming that Tiego was the "treacher", Cardron firmly believed that he must have some conspiracy. This conspiracy may be to seize the property of the Duchess of Gandino, or other benefits from her. He believes that this businessman has the same calculations as himself, so he has been staring at Thiego all the time.

Tiego's sudden departure from the city attracted Cardron's attention. Because he could not fake others, Cardron could only trace himself.

He followed Tiego out of the city and then walked all the way to the countryside until he watched him enter a manor.

Cardron secretly recorded this place, he did not sneak in, but planned to find opportunities to explore the details of this manor.

Tiego stayed in the manor for a short time. In addition to telling him the good news, Normezi also intended to reconfirm to the Norl media to what extent this disease will develop.

But after seeing Normezi lying in bed, imagining Philip, who was said to be much worse, Tiegeau felt a little bit more sighed about the infatuation of Princess Juana.

Normezi was very happy to hear that Philip ’s condition had deteriorated, but he was obviously more concerned about Ferdinand ’s move. When he heard that Ferdinand secretly helped Juana escape into the Highland Castle, he suffered a huge illness and tormented Norr. Mei Qi was actually excited and struggling to sit up from the bed.

"That's it! This is Ferdinand!" He snarled hard and excitedly in a hoarse voice, and the saliva flowing from his already festered lips flowed into the neck together with the stinky yellow pus, like that. Tiego watched for a while and felt sick.

"I'm terrible now," Normezi looked at Tiege sarcastically. "But believe me Philip will be worse. If you see the people who are sick in Rome, you will know that **** is not just after death. presence."

Normezi's nearly morbid madness made Thiego uncomfortable. He hurriedly quit after instructing his servants to take care of Normezi, and it all fell into the eyes of Cardron who had been staring here outside the manor.

Cardron wanted to know who Tiego came to. He quietly approached the manor and carefully observed the movements inside. After confirming that there were not many guards, he carefully recognized the direction and remembered the features here, and then he hurried away. Return to Valencia.

In the next few days, Cardron had been secretly staring at Tiego, but he found that this person seemed to be only a little strange, he spent the rest of his time in the "East India Office" Ever.

Cardron waited patiently, he hoped to find more vulnerabilities in Tiego. After all, he didn't know exactly who lived in that manor for a while, maybe it wasn't an important person, or just one of his mistresses ~ www .ltnovel.com ~ Cardron knew that even if Tiego had a lover, it seemed nothing to Maria de Luna, so he felt that he needed to have more control of this person.

But without waiting for him to continue to monitor, something unexpected to Cadron disrupted his plan.

After having a dinner with the Pope, Maria de Luna suddenly reported something to Alexander VI that surprised everyone.

"What are you talking about?" The hand that was wiping the residual gravy from the mouth with a handkerchief suddenly came, and Alexander VI's calm face quickly flicked a tinge of red that surging because of being too excited.

"Yes, your majesty, you heard it right. That Gombre has arrived in Valencia." Maria de Luna seemed to be a lot easier at the end of the sentence. She was greeted by the pope's gloom His eyes slowly said, "His ship is now on Prison Island, he is waiting for your call."

"Really?" The pope still kept the same position as before, and he looked at Maria de Luna for a while before throwing his handkerchief gently on the table. "I don't know if you and he still have Contacts. "

"Just someone ..."

Maria de Luna wanted to explain, but was stopped by Alexander VI. The pope who seemed to be better in spirit before, suddenly seemed to have become much older for a time. He stood up with some effort. After glancing across the table, Maria de Luna turned away without a word.

Cardron left immediately behind the pope, and he was wondering how Maria de Luna was connected to Alexandria. Then he suddenly remembered that the businessman named Tiego seemed to have visited Gandy during the day. The Duchess of Connaught.

So, is that Tiegold related to Gombré? !

Thinking of this, Cardron couldn't help but startled, and then a burst of ecstasy came to his heart.
