Vol 6 Chapter 45: Enemy of the enemy

The cannonball flew directly into the monastery. After breaking the gate, the solid projectile first bounced on the ground, smashing a few slabs of stone, and then jumped to play a bumper ball in the monastery ’s patio. .
A few short screams rang out from the crowd, but almost all of them were fleeting. Normezi certainly did n’t believe it was because those people were not seriously injured. He knew that it was possible that they almost even had a chance to scream. If not, you will lose your life.
Normezi looked back toward the gate of the monastery. He could see nothing from the cracked hole, only the bright light outside, but then the fierce gunshot suddenly sounded, and the gunshot was so dense, he could Surely the Montina army had never shot so fiercely before.
"Stop!" Normezi shouted loudly, but no one could hear his order at this time, because the Balkans who had retreated into the corridor entrance suddenly appeared again after hearing gunfire and gunshots, and they took advantage of the betrayal. The army distracted the opportunity because of the accident at the door. They first shot at a short distance with a short gun full of filling, and then waited for the gunshot to disappear. They had rushed out of the smoke and rushed toward the rebels with a short axe saber Come here!
The people of Normezi were blinded by the Balkans' sudden counterattack. They had to swing their swords to face the battle. The two sides collided on the wine-filled stone ground, and a fight began.
Looking at the enemies who were fighting with his men, Normezi could only throw away the torches. For a while, the fighting sounds in the monastery corresponded with the gunshots outside and inside, and the rebels immediately fell into chaos.
At the same time, a second gunshot came from outside.
The sturdy monastery wall seemed to tremble, even though the distance was close, the shells hit the wall next to the monastery door because of the hasty reset of the artillery. A stone was blown out and stood nearby The defender was shocked and fell to the ground.
The destruction of the artillery attracted the attention of most of the rebels on the building wall. At this time, after hearing the chaos in the monastery and seeing the burning flames, he took the defensive chaos and decisively ordered the adventure to push the artillery out of the attack on the monastery. Frei, immediately led the Balkans to the gate of the big hole where the monastery was bombed.
The sound of fighting sounded at the same time inside and outside the monastery. A cry and the screams of the wounded were mixed. Aufrei ran forward with people, he knew that the only thing was to rush to the monastery at this time. In front of the door, listening to the sound of gunfire and the wind whizzing past him, Aufrei desperately just rushed forward. At this time, he only remembered what Alexander had told him before: "Once any time is determined to attack Do n’t shake your resolve. You must carry out this fighting intention firmly and decisively before the end of the battle. At this time, any hesitation to look forward and backward will only make things worse. "
For this sentence, Aufrei did not have much deep experience before, but when he ran forward with his madness, when the oncoming bullets could shoot his body at any time and take away his life, Ofreily really understood the meaning of the count.
"Rush over! Rush in!" Aufrei didn't know what he was shouting at all, even when he was pushed by the swarming soldiers and directly hit the door, the wooden door fell forward and then rebounded vigorously back When they were knocked down to the ground, Alfred was still unable to control himself because of that excitement.
He jumped up sharply and pointed his short gun at a hole that had been blown out to a height of half a person, and started shooting, while the Balkans next to him immediately learned how to march into the hole.
At the same time, the other Balkans began to violently hit the door, and the wooden door that had been crumbling immediately groaned heavily after being penetrated by the shells.
"Kill them!" While Normezi ran towards the gate of the monastery, he turned back and ordered that he was still fighting with the Balkans. "I want to buy you time, not enough. I want you to kill all these guys!"
Hearing the master's outright cries, he was slightly stunned, but the man still said "compliance" and turned back toward the Balkans who had retreated to the corridor entrance again.
Normezi's eyes were already red, and he was completely desperate at this time.
The burning of the granary means that he will never wait for the opportunity to change the situation in Naples. The only thing he can do now is to find a way to escape. What is ridiculous is that this strong fortress that he used to guard is now. It became a huge obstacle preventing him from escaping.
The fire in the granary became smaller and bigger, and the tongue of fire spread to the wooden staircase near the wall of the building. The soldiers standing on the outside shooting started to panic. Some of them could no longer hold the gun, and some of the bows and arrows were shaking in their hands. Non-stop, when a wooden frame closest to the stairs began to make a squeaking noise, someone jumped from above because of fear.
Normezi walked toward the door. The burning wooden frame above his head made him feel that the skin exposed outside his clothes was hot and seemed to be dry at any time. Just when he was about to walk to the door, a dark thing suddenly The blasted hole was thrown in.
"What is it?" Normezi's heart only had time to flash through this thought, and then the sudden explosion of the thing exploded and threw him out.
The monastery was full of shouts, and the gate was finally completely destroyed. The Montina people who rushed in kept shooting and hacking. They did not have any mercy and kindness. Every time the hatchet and saber were raised and swung down It will bring a blood, and this brutal fighting will completely defeat the rebels who have fallen into chaos because the Count has disappeared almost immediately.
"Surrender, you can't escape!" Some people in Montina's army began to scream while slashing. Although the tone sounded strange, they could still hear the other party's persuasion, but the method of persuasion was abnormal. Cruel, it is clear to the Montina that they do n’t really care much about whether the enemy surrenders.
"Surrender, otherwise all will be executed!"
This time the tone sounds a lot clearer, and it is certain that this should be a Neapolitan man shouting, but because of this, the rebels are even more flustered, because they know what crime they committed, which makes them dare not easily believe The words of the enemy.
"I assure you in the name of my lord, Agri, the owner of Montina, and the Regency of Pisa, that surrender will get a fair trial." Ofrei walked out of the Balkans, and he looked to those who had gradually been surrounded. The rebels in the corner of the monastery "I assure you that you will not face life-threatening punishment except for Count Normezi and his cronies, but you must stop resistance now and hand over Normezi."
"We will not betray the count!"
A young soldier shouted, but immediately fell to the ground with a gunshot.
Aufrei looked back slightly at the Balkan who was smoking a muzzle behind him, and then turned his head to meet the rebels again, asking: "Who else wants to be loyal to Earl Normezi?"
No one spoke again, the rebels looked at each other, and they all saw the implicit meaning in the other's eyes, but no one was willing to stand up first.
"I surrender."
A calm voice sounded, and Aufrei turned his head to look around and saw a fat man with a small figure walking over with a limp. His good-textured robes ripped apart, although not well-known , But Alfred immediately realized who this person was.
"Count Normezi?"
"It's me, and I'm here to declare surrender," Normezi looked up and down at Aufrei. "But I want to know who I'm surrendering to. It's about my honor and dignity."
"Alto Aufrei, the commander of the Count of Montina's army, is willing to serve you adults." Aufrei nodded slightly, then raised his head to look at the somewhat awkward Naples nobleman in front of him "whether you admit it or not , You are my captive now. "
There was a trace of pain in Normezi's eyes. He knew his life was over, but it was strange that he chose to surrender rather than fight to the end.
Why is this?
Normezi looked at the crowd under his hands, without seeing the shadow of the Aragonese, a hint of hate flashed in his eyes.
"I want to see the Earl of Montina," Normezi said in a calm but unusually firm tone. "I have important things to discuss with the Earl."
"Sir, you may be disappointed, Lord Earl is not here ..."
Aufrei stopped at the beginning, his eyes fixed on Normezi ’s hand, which held a very sharp dagger, and the tip of the dagger was facing Nor Mezi's own neck.
"Adult, if I were you, you wouldn't do such a stupid thing. You know that suicide is a serious crime, which will make you fall into after death."
As he said, he glanced at the few people who were passing quietly through the rebel soldiers from behind. He noticed that Sher, who was walking in the front, wanted him to quietly gesture, and continued: "If It ’s not difficult for you to see the count, but your appearance does not match your identity. "
"I still have any identity," Normezi smiled ridiculed himself, and then his face fell. "This is not something you can manage. Go to your count, and come to see me if he doesn't want to get into trouble. Tell him that the queen is dead. "
Hearing this, Aufrei, who was originally planning to continue to attract Normezi ’s attention, stayed instinctively. He looked at Schell instinctively, and saw Cher nodded slightly to him. The head suddenly grew bigger.
The Queen died unexpectedly at St. John's Abbey. Whatever the reason, it was enough to cause a series of shocking changes.
Seeing that Normezi, Schell's eyes, had a ridiculous smile because of his eyes, Aufrei waved angrily to let the Balkans retreat.
"Sir, please come with me," Aufrei said with a helpless gesture to Normezi. "I hope you are not alarmist, otherwise I will let you know how big it is to annoy a Montina officer." trouble."
The threat of Aufrei did not disturb Normezi. He threw away his short knife and walked to the face of Aufrei. He looked back at the crowd again. After confirming that he did not see the Aragonese, Normezi He lowered his voice and said, "Listen to our spies, if you let me see the Earl of Montina as soon as possible, I promise to tell him more."
Aufrei pondered, he knew that the situation was no longer under his control, and Normezi's words also made him vaguely uneasy.
"Come with me, sir."
Normezi's words made Aufrei have to be careful, but he didn't want to appear too concerned about letting Normezi rely, so he whispered to tell Schell to pay attention to the rebels, and then only took Noel Mezi went outside the monastery.
As he walked out of the gate of the monastery, Normezi stopped to look back at the sturdy fortress that had high hopes for him. At this moment, he only felt that the gate of the cave was like a big mouth that laughed at him.
Normezi was a little silent, then turned and left, never looked back.
When Normezi appeared in front of Alexandria, the sky was completely dark. At this time, the fire in the monastery had been extinguished. However, under the moonlight, a cluster of black smoke could still be seen floating, and then disappeared in the deep twilight.
Alexander looked silently at the prisoner in front of him. The count was a little different from what he had imagined. Compared with his relative Frederick, the fat count had a fierce face on his face. This was a king. What Frederick does not have, or that many nobles are not as full of fighting spirit as he looks.
This is more a soldier than a nobleman. Alexander thought so. Although he played tricks like other people, Normezi was the first and only one to fail in the queen. It seems that the entire Naples will fall into the hands of the Modillo family. The nobleman who stood out.
"You are brave earl, if you are me you may not have such courage," Alexander said heartily. "We all know that the queen is doomed to fail, and you still choose to wage rebellion and tell me the earl," Alexander looked at Normezi's face. Indifferently asked, "What conditions did Ferdinand of Aragon promise you?"
Normezi showed an accident. He had thought it should be a secret, but now it seems that this Gombre knows everything already.
Normezi shook his head incredulously, as if to make sure he had heard it wrong.
"Tell me what happened to the queen ’s death," Alexander changed the question again this time. "Count, we all know that you cannot be pardoned, but I do n’t think you would be stupid enough to kill the queen. Any benefit, on the contrary, regardless of whether you have kept St. John ’s Abbey, as long as you let others know that you are related to the Queen ’s death, you are done. So tell me who wants you to die, or you want to cover up the person who wants to frame you? "
Alexander's words deeply stimulated Normezi. He looked at Alexander with hateful eyes, and after a while he breathed out and slowly sat in a chair not far from Alexander.
"Count, tell you what you want to get?" Normezi asked in a muffled voice. "Why did the queen arrive at St. John's Abbey? We all know clearly, although I know you won't admit it, but I believe you didn't think of this result, although It might be a bit unexpected, but is n’t it better for you? "
Alexander looked at Normezi. He had to admit that Normezi was right. When the queen walked into St. John's Abbey, he never thought of allowing her to come out of it alive, whether it was to Count Modillo Ruosha, even for Alfred, a queen who suddenly disappeared and died inexplicably in the rebel camp was more satisfying than standing alive in front of them.
But Alexander did not think that the queen would die so strangely.
"You mean that the queen was killed by someone, tell me who he is?" Alexander asked again, looking at the rage across Normezi's face. Alexander vaguely felt that the person he said might be the key. " Earl, I do n’t think you want to be used by others. Now tell me everything is to help yourself. At least even if the death penalty is imposed, it will only pay for your actions, not a scapegoat. "
Alexander's last words seemed to impress Normezi. He looked at Alexander seriously, and seemed to want to see if he was lying between the expressions on his face.
Then Normezi finally said, "That's an Aragonese, or as you already guessed, he was sent by King Ferdinand."
Even though he had thought of this possibility, after hearing Normezi's words, Alexander couldn't help but slightly exasperated.
King Aragon, husband of Isabela, Queen of Castile, the first real king of the Kingdom of Sicily and the future Kingdom of Spain, this series of titles is enough to make anyone dazzled, and now this Fi Dinan finally reached out to Naples.
Alexandria secretly sighed, he knew that he and the future opponent would one day really compete, but he did not expect that he would not take action, but Ferdinand had already taken the lead.
Alexander can only lament the gap in strength. Obviously, when he was still carefully laid out, his enemies had already taken a step in actual combat. Although Ferdinand may not even know that there is such a personal presence now, but This did not affect the king's direct involvement in the center of Naples' power struggle as soon as he shot it ~ EbookFREE.me ~ and the addition of the Aragonese undoubtedly proved that the king had already begun his annexation of Naples.
"The count told me that anyone knows what you said about the Aragonese."
Seeing Normezi hesitating and shaking his head, Alexander stood up, tapping his fingers gently on the hilt and slowly paced the tent.
Hearing the footsteps of Alexander stopped behind him, Normezi closed his eyes. He reached out and grasped the cross on his chest tightly, repenting gently in his mouth.
"Our Father in heaven, may everyone honor your name. May your kingdom come. May your will walk on the earth, as you walk in heaven."
Normezi murmured to himself. He had heard the sound of the sword coming out of his back softly, and then a cold breath came across the neck.
"The earl told me when you think someone will feel the saddest," Alexander's words rang in Normezi's ears. When Normezi had a meal, he smiled and continued. "That is knowing that he was betrayed. Even when betrayal is powerless, so I ’ll give you a chance now, Earl. You can make those who betray and betray you pay for everything you do. "
