Vol 6 Chapter 70: History is always so good

In history, there have been many accidental events that changed the direction of the times because of a trivial matter, so this has given people countless assumptions and colorful reveries.
If the stabbing nail did not appear, if an apple did not hit someone's head, if a fruit vendor was not beaten ...
Will the noble king be killed or pushed to the guillotine, and will the great discoveries affecting the entire human civilization be postponed or even wiped out in the long course of history that has changed its direction?
There are always people who like to think about this kind of "if" dream, this kind of dream makes people try to imagine another possibility completely different from reality, and that kind of "hypothetical world will not be better" Guess, sometimes even cause all kinds of trouble because of fear that reality may be killed by hypothesis
There are too many examples of changing history because of pure events, and in the second Romagna War in August 1499, there were two such pure events that changed too many things and changed too The fate of many people.
Gompati is a qualified artillery commander and may become a better general in the future, but he obviously has no prophet.
So he did not expect that the Ferrara would lack the courage to confront the enemy for several hours, but chose to open the door and surrender.
So when he defeated the enemies in front of him and forced him to cross the Reno River, he thought he had the initiative in the war that was destined for the end.
In Gompati ’s vision, Ferrara only had to hold Caesar for a day, and with the almost unmatched power of the Montina army in this era, he could quickly enter the city of Ferrara and get there. He didn't even need to fight the pope army at that time, as long as he made a threat to the enemy's side, Caesar's only choice was to give up Ferrara and retreat to Bologna.
And that's why Compatiti asked Busako not to be too eager to attack Bologna.
After considering various reasons outside the battlefield, Compatti chose a plan that would force Caesar to retreat and make everyone acceptable.
But the only thing he didn't expect was that Ferrara actually surrendered without even trying a little.
This small change led to the failure of Gompati's entire plan, and at the same time caused a huge change in the situation in Romagna!
Gompati, who heard the news of Ferrara's surrender, hadn't spoken for a long time. Such a result was too unexpected and too uncomfortable for him.
Although the reasons for the victory and defeat were indeed varied, the Ferrara ’s cowardice was so daunting that it was indeed beyond Gompati ’s expectations, especially when he heard that Caesar ’s army even Even the formation did not unfold. After Ferrara opened the city gate, Compati could only lament that when God created the Ferrara people, they must have given each of them the heart of a sheep.
Gompati had to change his plan.
He knew it was impossible to storm Ferrara, and no one could imagine what would happen.
But if this is the acquiescence of Caesar's occupation of Ferrara, it will be his complete failure.
In the original plan, the second Balkan regiment led by Busako would not appear in Bologna until noon on August 4. This is because Busaco had to follow Gompati's instructions to use the Montina army. Too slow to march towards Bologna.
According to previous assumptions, when the Pope learned that he might be intercepted under the city of Ferrara by the Montina army from behind, and was likely to be cut off the retreat, Caesar will immediately take the army to withdraw from Ferrara.
At this time, Bologna, the direct territory of the Pope, became very important.
All of Caesar's supplies are in Bologna, and because of the relationship with the Vatican, the Bolognese are a natural alliance of the Pope.
So Gompati ’s plan was to let Busaco launch a slightly threatening pretext against Bologna, which would force Caesar to retreat to Bologna or simply run away.
In this way, they can not only avoid formal engagement with the Pope, but also seize the opportunity to cut off Caesar's path to Ferrara.
As for what happened next, the Countess needed a headache.
However, Caesar unexpectedly occupied Ferrara in advance due to the timidity of the Ferrara, so that the whole plan of Compatti was defeated.
The first time Gompati had commanded this alone, he encountered such a change, which made him wonder if he could still complete the task assigned to him by the countess.
However, at this time, it should obviously not be confused. The rapid change on the battlefield is like a terrible beast for those who are not determined, and may at any time devour those who may be shaken by a temporary setback.
Gompati knows this very well.
Whether it is personal experience or the performance of the Earl on the battlefield, it reminds Gompati to quickly wake up from the frustration of the moment of failure, otherwise he will face the next one worse than one. situation.
Caesar's Pope's army is in Ferrara, but Montina's army cannot launch a siege.
Just when Gumpati thought hard about how to get rid of this embarrassing situation, a news from Bologna surprised him inexplicably.
Busaco's army actually arrived in the outskirts of Bologna two days earlier than planned. What is more unexpected is that after Ferrara, Bologna was so easily taken down by Busaco's second Balkan regiment.
Hearing this news, Gompati began to disbelieve. He repeatedly asked the soldiers who had sent the letter what was going on, and why the Busako army did not follow the order 2 days in advance on August 2. Arrived in Bologna.
More importantly, he wanted to know exactly what Busako did, and he could occupy a city so quickly.
To his disappointment, the Balkan soldier's answer not only failed to make Gompati figure out what was going on, but even made him more confused.
At least he really didn't understand what the soldier's repeated "dance" "celebration" and "woman" had to do with the occupation of a city.
In fact, it was n’t just attacking Compati who did n’t understand that Busaco, who is now standing in a house with a characteristic maroon brick exterior wall in Bologna, still had some difficulty understanding how things would become like this.
In the beginning, Busako did, as Gumpati ordered, after a rough calculation of the journey time, he led the army to Bologna at an unhurried speed.
He knew that his task was to pretend to be intimidating, so as to try to make Caesar hear that the Montina might cut off his retreat, and he could withdraw from Ferrara because he was worried that he might be surrounded.
If all goes well, he will even have to give the Pope's rush to evacuate a way to escape. Only in this way can the Countess's order to expel the Pope's army be completed, and the embarrassment of direct conflict with the count's uncle can be avoided.
Speaking of which, when he knew the role he needed to play in this operation, Busaco was not very happy. He thought that Gompati still arranged such an inexplicable task for him because he did not trust him, rather than other officers. Enter Ferrara as well.
Because he had heard that Gompati was about to launch an attack by the River Reno, and it was clear that he had nothing to do with it, which made Busaco a little disappointed.
Busaco's army went on and on towards Bologna until it met a group of inexplicable young people.
Those are very strange people. Although some of them are very simple or even worn, these people are not ordinary people at first sight.
At the beginning, when a Balkan reported to him that he had caught a group of suspicious elements, Busaco thought he had encountered a French spy. After all, he heard several of them talking nonstop in a language they did not understand. At this time, it is not uncommon for such a suspicious person to be suspected of being a French spy.
This surprised Busaco, he thought that the French not only had a sudden call, but even prepared to attack Bologna, which made him worried that this accident might be detrimental to Montina.
Although he couldn't think of any big trouble for the French when they occupied Bologna, he ordered strict supervision of these people while ordering to speed up the march.
"Be sure to rush to Bologna before the French."
This is the order immediately issued by Busako, although he also knew that if it was really a French army, he had only a thousand or so troops who could not resist, but he still wanted to try to get closer to Bologna.
As for what to do if it really encounters with the French, Busaco did not think so much at this time.
It was not until the camping at night that he knew the origin of his captives.
Surprisingly, these people are not spies from the French, but students from the University of Bologna.
Even if he is a soldier like Busako, he knows what this place of the University of Bologna means.
The University of Bologna, known as the oldest university in Europe, is undoubtedly the temple of knowledge in this era. Almost all people in Europe who are pursuing knowledge are eager to enter the University of Bologna for further study.
The well-known and well-known scholar masters who walked out of this university set off the lofty status of this oldest university in Europe and almost the highest institution.
I caught the student of the University of Bologna!
As soon as I heard that the sweat on Busako's head burst out, he had seen some of the weirdos who were turned from Milan by Uliu, among them there was a master who seemed to be not so good at serving and a very A good monk, even if there is something out of them, it seems that Uliu is nervous.
Busako knows Uliu ’s position around Alexandria very much. Speaking more than once, Busako lamented that no matter how many times he fought for the Earl on the battlefield, he was unlikely to surpass the Moors in the Earl ’s mind. The status, but watching Uliu treat those people as if they were serving their ancestors, Busaco knew that they must have an extraordinary use for the count.
And those few people have a common feature, they are all learned.
So Busaco knew very well that the count valued the learned people very much.
And now he suddenly caught a group of students from Bologna University!
Busaco felt that he might really be in trouble. He ordered all the captives tied to the pack horses to be released, and wondered how to make up for this big and small error.
When the students of the University of Bologna heard that they were arresting the army of the Earl of Montina, there was a period of intense emotions, and some people even shouted "tyrant".
This made Busaco very annoyed. He wanted to let these students know what would happen to such an insult to the Earl. Just thinking about their identity, he could only apologize as much as he could.
But what disappointed Busako was that these students obviously did not want to give up, and what was worse was that they claimed that they had rushed back to Bologna to participate in the 317th anniversary of the establishment of the school. Now because of the unreasonable detention of the Montina army, they have delayed their precious time.
"Be aware that this year is a very special anniversary because we will be challenged by students from the University of Paris in France at the commemorative celebration. Those French people claim that they will not only use swords but also pens to conquer us, so these of us are in a hurry To rush back, we are all the most outstanding students of the University of Bologna, if we are absent there will definitely be no small impact. "
The words of the students made Busaco feel that his fault was more serious. He couldn't help but feel uneasy about his recklessness. When everything seemed to be irreversible, those students made a request that surprised Busaco.
"You should be responsible for the mistakes you made," a student pointed out very firmly to the mistake of the officer who seemed to be a good talker. "So you are responsible for sending us to Bologna as soon as possible."
"I can send someone to send you back ..." Busako said helplessly.
Unfortunately, as soon as he spoke, he was interrupted by an excessive sound that sounded crisp.
"Aren't you supposed to send us back in person? It's because of your fault that you should be responsible for this."
Listening to the voice, Busaco looked, his eyes flashed over the students' faces, and finally fell on a student who was deliberately blocked by two students.
Busako went over and patted one of the students on the shoulder.
The other party first tried to resist, but in the end he gave way with helpless eyes.
Even a figure with a black hooded cape that appeared to be shorter than others appeared in front of Busaco.
He hesitated a little, then lifted his hand carefully and lifted the hood over the man's head.
The thick black long hair came out and seemed to know that it could not be avoided. The man looked up and looked at Busako.
For a moment Busako was dumbfounded.
A young girl wearing a man's mantle and holding a large book thick enough to use as a weapon stood in front of Busaco.
This girl's appearance can only be described as ordinary, but Busako vowed that the girl had the most flexible eyes he had ever seen.
Almost at the same time Busako lifted the girl's headgear, several students from all around immediately gathered up. They ignored the Balkans' scolding and rude push and shoved towards the girl, trying to protect her.
But their behavior was so clumsy to the Balkans. If it wasn't for Busako's constant rebuke to stop it, the Balkans had to teach these students.
"If you are an aristocrat, you won't do anything that offends women," a student shouted to Busako. "Even if you are just a soldier, you won't make a glorious move that will humiliate you."
"I'm just curious about the fact that there are women among you." Busako pouted slightly. He wanted to tell the students in the ivory tower that if they had seen something really cruel, they would know that the so-called honor is actually in the hands of many people. It's worthless.
"It seems that although you are said to have defeated the Ottomans, you really don't have much knowledge." The girl looked at Busaco from the shoulders of a companion's shoulder and looked at Busaco. "You know, women are allowed to study at the University of Bologna."
"Is there such a thing?" Busaco was really surprised this time. He glanced at the girl curiously and then shook his head slightly. "I can only send someone to Bologna. We have other things. It ’s impossible to delay your time for you.

"You are really a polite person." A student grumbled in dissatisfaction.
"I think you haven't understood what happened," Busako said a little helplessly. "We are fighting, so the only thing that can compensate you is to send someone to Bologna."
"If you are fighting, shouldn't you go to Bologna more?" The girl said from the back of her companion's tiptoe. "I heard that the Frenchman who came to the university this time is a famous person at the University of Paris, but it doesn't matter. The important thing is that People seem to be very important people around the French king. "
Busako, who had just wanted to perfunctoryly send these people away, immediately moved his heart. He looked at the students and saw that some of them seemed to try to stop the girl, but some were indifferent. 'S subordinates signalled the students who seemed to want to stop her from the girl.
"Now can you tell me who the Frenchman you are talking about?" Busako asked, and then said, "Maybe I know him,"
There was a slight sarcasm on the girl's face, although the look was fleeting, but it still fell in Busaco's eyes, which made him uncomfortable.
"Perhaps I should introduce myself first," Busako touched his moustache, this is the action he learned from the Balkans. "Paul Busaco, the former commander of the hunting guard beside Lord Montina , Head of the second regiment of Montina Balkans. "
Busako finished paying close attention to the look on the girl's face, but it was a pity that he was disappointed that there was no surprise, joy, and ecstasy that he expected to see.
"You probably don't know ..."
"I know you hurt Sudan with artillery."
The girl opened her mouth suddenly, as if it were just the most common thing.
This made Busaco, who was still expecting something, unexpectedly completely disappointed.
"Your luck is indeed good, but I don't know if you are smart enough to match your luck," the girl said with an annoyed tone that started Busako. "The Frenchman is really a big man. If we go back, we may be able to have an unexpected gain, otherwise it can only prove that all the honors you have previously gained are really based on luck, but you know that luck is a useful day. "
Busaco looked at the girl strangely. He now began to feel that he was blind before and would feel that the girl with a sharp eye was pleasing to the eye. Now how does he think that this woman is really unspeakable annoying.
Busako said helplessly: "Well tell me who that person is, and then maybe I will really send you back to Bologna as you said."
"Master Fischer, dean of the University of Paris, renowned in Europe, and an important assistant around the King of France. I don't know if you know this person?"
When this was said, the young woman had a slightly ironic smile on her face.
Busako was a little stunned, and then the same smile appeared on his face.
"This is just a coincidence, I really know this master."
Busako used to pat the knife on his waist with his hands while talking. In fact, his mood at this time was completely different from what he had done just now.
He never thought that the instructor who was said to be King Louis XII would arrive in Bologna.
Of course, Busaco could not guess that the master was purely for the purpose of attending the commemoration of the establishment of the school in Bologna, or for any other reason, but he is very clear about Fischer as a pivotal figure around Louis XII.
Perhaps it should really go to Bologna immediately, at least this time it is unusual for Fischer to appear in Romagna.
Once this kind of thought was formed in Busako's mind, it would never be driven away.
And the young woman's unintentional words deeply stirred the heart throbbing in Busako.
"Bologna City should be holding a mid-summer harvest celebration for ten consecutive days at this time. At this time, Bologna is busy."
Busako was moved.
As a farmer a few years ago, he knew exactly what the harvest celebration meant.
It was all night drinking, dancing, and taking the opportunity to pay diligence to the woman who loved it. In short, it was endless carnival.
The key to all this is that the city is the most lax defensive at this time.
Although Gompati ’s order was to make way for Caesar, who was about to retreat, so that he could escape smoothly, because this did not really allow him to occupy Bologna from the beginning, but in the face of such a Even in an undefended city, Busako could not get rid of its charm as a woman who cast a wink.
A fleeting opportunity is in front of me, as long as I stretch out my hand, I can firmly grasp it.
In the end, the sense of honor to conquer a city led Busako to make a decision at this time ~ EbookFREE.me ~ who doesn't know what huge changes will bring to the future.
"I will send you to Bologna personally as compensation for the offense," Busaco announced to the students of Bologna University, saying that he turned back to the subordinate soldiers to order the whole army to start. We are going to Bologna. "
Following Busako's order, the slow-moving Balkans began to run in the fields south of Romagna like a whip.
When Caesar's army had not entered Ferrara, a part of the Second Balkan Regiment of the Montina Army had appeared in the suburbs of Bologna.
Even in the early morning, you can still see the traces left by the carnival the night before, and the crazy Bologna overnight will never think that there will be an army coming suddenly.
In the early morning of August 2, 1499, the Montina army took advantage of the opportunity of the Bolognese to celebrate the Midsummer harvest celebration, and raided and occupied Bologna.
At this point, the 4000 pope army of Caesar Borgia, Duke of Valentino, who had just conquered Ferrara, was completely shut down in the gate of Romagna.
