Calgino suddenly discovered that he had lost his enemy.
In other words, the Montina people seem to be completely hidden in the dark. They no longer harass him, and no longer send a small team of people to attack, but this calm situation makes Calgino a little worried.
He still doesn't know about the sudden changes in Pisa, so the idea of whether to attack Pisa was only affected by Machiavelli's words.
But because of Machiavelli, Cargillino still believed that the Venetian had entered Tuscany. Because of this, he was eager to retreat from here to a safe place immediately.
It is not good for Cargillno to stop harassing the Montina. He is now facing two problems.
Whether to continue to stay in this river, or to leave immediately.
If you die, the Venetian who doesn't know when it will appear and the supplies that will soon be cut off are his enemies.
But if he left, Calgino knew that he might have fallen into Alexander's trap.
Alexander obviously wanted him to move. Only when he moved would there be flaws, and only when he moved would he create opportunities for the enemy.
Calgino did not know the tactics of "sports warfare", but he knew that marching at this time was very unfavorable to him, who might be attacked by the enemy at any time.
However, Cargill soon knew that he had no chance to choose. As his men reported to him that the food he was about to run out, he knew that there would be no chance if he did not leave.
In fact, this sneak attack was very risky. In order to quickly march into Pisa, he had left most of the supplies in the town of Aural when he set off before, and only brought something that could allow the soldier to eat for a few days .
After hearing Machiavelli's words, Calgino simply discarded almost all the weight that could not be taken away quickly, which made his people able to play lightly, but they had almost nothing.
If they continue to stay in Tuscany, what they are waiting for is to do everything they can.
"Must go."
Calgino made up his mind that he knew this was the only way. What frustrated him was that he had clearly found a way to deal with the Alexander Cavalry. If he was given enough food, he could have more chances to be ruthless. Hit Alexander, at least so that he can no longer trouble himself with the harassment of cavalry.
But now Calgino knows that not only the victory has passed him, but even waiting for him is a difficult escape.
He had to leave this land that had become dangerous everywhere before the main force of the Montina arrived. At the same time, he had to make sure that the road to the town of Aral was clear.
Most of the Genoese's burden has been left in Oral. If they want to be hungry during the next march, they must find a way to come to the town of Oral.
Calgino tried to make himself seem as stable as possible because he knew that the news of the imminent grain breakout was likely to upset the soldiers.
For today's military, in addition to recruiting locals, pure mercenaries can hardly endure all kinds of hardships. Even temporary hardships can make them make a lot of noise and even disperse.
This kind of thing is very common. There have even been incidents of refusing to fight because of bad weather or other reasons.
Cargill quickly issued the order. He first sent a counter scout again, but he would never let them run far away, only to patrol in the distance at a distance that could support each other, and then ordered the army to leave those quickly. The temporarily constructed fortifications set off in the direction of Olar.
The scouts sent out looked like a lot of tentacles protruding, staring cautiously at the surroundings. They also became bolder because they knew that they were not far away from the team. The interconnectedness also made the Bohemians not far away from them a chance to start.
Even though Calgino still felt uneasy, he clearly knew that although the previous attack did not cause much damage to his team, but the repeated non-stop harassment had brought a lot of pressure to the soldiers. What appears to be Montina's main force, then their result is likely to be a disastrous defeat.
Therefore, Calgino desperately urged the soldiers to rush forward, and in order to avoid Montina's main force that may appear at any time, he had to send more scouts while carefully choosing the route of forward.
To this end, he changed his marching direction more than once. This obviously made the army run a lot more, which naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of the soldiers. Although there were appeasements and even brutal suppression by the captains, the soldiers became more and more excited. The emotions still made Machiavelli, who was with Cargillo, feel that the intense restlessness was intensifying.
"The bad behavior of the mercenaries once again proved my previous views. Even I think I was kind before. They didn't think they were bad. In fact, they were much worse than I thought," Machiavelli said. The diary reads: "They refuse to work like ordinary soldiers, and even the fortifications that can save them from life are too lazy to participate in the construction, and their general discipline is scattered and commanded, and they are greedy and mature. Rather than defamation for no reason, because I saw with my own eyes that some mercenaries still refused to throw away some bulky property under the order of clear light advancement, because these things are his personal loot. "
Calgino was not clear that Machiavelli was using the actions of the Genoese army to find material for his great work, but he only knew that he was constantly approaching the town of Aural.
Alexander has been observing, and since he ordered to stop harassing the Genoese, he has been closely watching the movement of the Genoese.
After the Genoese left, he briefly looked at the abandoned fortification, and combined with the description of the surviving Bohemians, Alexander had to admire Calgino so quickly that he found an effective way to deal with this harassment. .
From the discarded and destroyed things in the camp, Alexander sensed Calgino's anxiety, which made Alexander always wondering what Calgino was hiding from.
Is it your main force?
But it shouldn't be so disturbing, so what's wrong with him?
The intense curiosity made Alexander decide to follow along, and when he finally realized what was happening after a long time, the scout he sent met the first messenger sent by Aufrei.
Unlike Alexander, who knew exactly in which direction Calgino would go, Aufrei was wandering aimlessly in the Tuscan lands. Although he knew the direction of the enemy at first, Calgino ’s march suddenly After becoming "strange," Ofrei lost two goals completely.
He lost both his enemies and his lords, which made O'Frei worry that the only way out was to march in the direction of speculation while sending out a large number of scouts like a net, in Tuscany The vast expanse of the earth looked everywhere for the clues of those two armies.
Aufrei is tense and contradictory. He wants to hear the news as soon as possible, but he is afraid of hearing bad news. So when Alexander sent someone to find him, he was almost excited to embrace Gompati.
But this joy did not last long. After receiving an instruction from Alexander, he immediately ordered to march in the direction of the Genoese. After a long journey, the Montina army was tired and almost exhausted. Abandoned camp.
Based on the various traces left, Aufrei judged that there had been a battle here, which made him nervous again, but the two armies were lost again, as if disappearing out of thin air, let him fall into Distressed.
It was already that same night that the people of Orpheus finally found Alexandria.
The bright fire attracted the messenger who was searching carefully in the night. After seeing the Bohemians, the messenger immediately explained his intention. When he saw Alexander who was eating hare meat in the camp, the messenger finally exhaled with a heavy burden. .
There are many people sent by Aufrei, these people all carry the same news, but for safety reasons, these people have secret letters on their bodies that are not easy to detect. Enemies filled the content in ways that they could not understand.
And the first news made Alexander a bit dumbfounded.
"Dear lord, please allow me to congratulate you, your daughter, Miss Estrez Zhu Gumbre, has just been crowned Duke of Pisa on August 19 ..."
The first news shocked Alexander fiercely. He blinked his eyes and then looked at it again. After confirming that there was nothing wrong, Alexander raised his head in amazement and blinked again.
Then he said a bit worried about seeing him like this. Busako said blankly: "I am the Duke's father now."
Ofrei heard the news about Pisa, which was purely a coincidence.
Because of the worries about where to find the pair of enemies, he had to send people around to find out.
So in this Tuscan land, which is not very large, the two sides scout cavalry, you come and go everywhere.
Although this beacon scene is commonplace for the people here, it still caused uneasiness among the people in the villages along the way.
The news that Tuscany was about to fight again quickly spread everywhere, and the news quickly reached people who had been ordered by Lucrezia to report to Alexander.
The person who reported the news finally found the Montina army led by Aufrei. When he spoke the news, waiting for Auf Alei to react, Gompati had already sent an unstoppable cheer of joy!
Then Aufrei also woke up immediately, and the army commander immediately realized the importance of this news, especially when the army would collapse at any time because of the constant trek, this news was too important for him.
Aufrei quickly ordered the news to be spread throughout the army. When the herald soldiers continued to shout, the whole team burst into cheers in a moment, and Aufrei already took out the codebook and began to send the news Write a secret letter.
The messengers were arranged in different directions. The verbal messages they brought were all meaningless even if they were intercepted. What really matters are these hidden secret messages.
The fact that Estelles became the Duke of Pisa is not a secret, it should even be publicized.
Because it was declaring the Gombré family ’s legal ownership of Pisa, but Aufrei still wrote this matter in the secret letter, because the key to the matter was another important news brought by the messenger.
Regarding the death of Tomnio and the unexpected intervention of the Venetians.
So he needed to ask Alexander what to do next, whether to continue pursuing Calgino, or to make sure that the crowning of Estrez went smoothly, and quickly proceeded to Pisa.
Alexander made the decision immediately without hesitation.
"Get ready, leave here tomorrow morning." Alexander glanced into the vast night. He didn't know where Calgino was now, but he couldn't help but feel that there was some inexplicable war that ended from beginning to end. Sorry.
"It might be another way to see Calgino next time." Alexander thought about it.
For Calgino, he has a strong hunch that this will not be their last encounter.
As for saying that Calgino might be married to Barendi, Alexander did not care.
Old Rovere was a real old fox. When he sent his brother Archbishop of Genoa to return to Genoa to go with the Calginos and the parliament, he just sent his daughter to Montina. This obvious move has already explained that too Many things.
It's just that the outcome of this war will probably dissatisfy Old Rovere. After all, he didn't see a result that would allow him to continue to make his final choice.
What would Barendi think of this news?
For a moment, Alexander thought suddenly passed by this thought, and he was quickly thrown aside.
He believes that Barendi may be a little uncomfortable, but she wo n’t be entangled because of this matter. She is a person who can calmly say that she will not interfere with the fiance ’s private life for the benefit of her family. She is more likely to do so. It's to think about what effect it will have on the Rowerie family.
"This is a messy battle, right? Busaco?" Alexander asked a little helplessly.
The captain of the guard nodded silently, but his heart was secretly relieved.
At least this ending is not bad, although in Ebsaco's view, he really does not understand why the Genoese named Calgino was fighting such an inexplicable war.
Alexander withdrew his troops in the early morning. Before leaving, he sent someone to send a letter to Calgino.
"Respected general, I admire your good at fighting," at the beginning of the letter, Alexander greatly praised his enemies, and then he wrote like this "For some personal reasons, I propose here Truce. At the same time, I suggest that you withdraw from Tuscany, we can use the town of Aral as the middle zone to determine a non-aggressive area.
Here I remind you ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The castle of Montina has enough fortifications, the artillery there is powerful enough to destroy any visitor who is trying to be hostile, and my fiancee, Valentia of Genoa, is doing Guarding for Montina's regency is there, so please consider my proposal carefully, and don't rush into Montina.
Because if such news is received, I will immediately tear up the truce and personally attack the army against Olar.
I believe you understand that once this supply is cut off to provide you with a guarantee of your retreat to Genoa, it means that there will be a dead fight between us, and I believe that person will never be you, the general. "
After writing such a letter, Alexander took the hunting guard and the Bohemians to turn around like a whirlwind and headed towards Pisa.
He could n’t even wait to meet with the main force of Aufrei. After a whole day of running, when the evening glow put the city with a red halo in the distance into Alexander ’s eyes, they finally came out of the city of Pisa .
On the evening of August 21, 1498, the father of the Duke of Pisa Estrel, Count of Montina Alexandre Juliant Gumbre arrived in Pisa.
