Vol 6 Chapter 92: Declare war

France and Austria are fighting in Northern Italy!
But this was not the reason for Alexander ’s insomnia. He could n’t sleep because of the information that Thiegos had sent him from Portugal.
Dagama has returned to Portugal, and the agreement signed with it has officially come into effect. This is a secret agreement signed at a notary in Portugal. According to the agreement, Alexander ’s trade union will be established from Dagama in the next 30 years. The new Dongfang route was granted exclusive use rights, which means that if any other person or country tries to get involved in this route, he has the right to wage war against it.
This may include Spain, as well as England and the Lowlands.
There is no eternal friendship between people, especially between countries. In the past, a country like a brother, or a country whose ancestors were connected by blood, can have a life-and-death war, not to mention the interest. In the country, there are already too many precedents for benefit and profit.
However, these are not the roots of Alexander's tossing and turning, and the biggest reason why he cannot fall asleep on this autumn night is Ferdinand of Aragon.
To Alexander's surprise, Ferdinand did not rush to send troops to Naples before. He seemed to be waiting for something. Now that Alexander knows, he is also waiting for the war between France and Austria to be the same as himself.
But despite knowing this, Alexander still had to help Maximian in secret.
If Austria could not contain the French in the north, Louis XII had enough troops transferred to southern Italy. Although this can be used to increase their bargaining power with the Aragonese army in order to compete for Naples in the future, it is unfavorable in the long run. .
Alexandria has decided to find an opportunity to infiltrate Castile, which means that he will stir up a storm inside Spain, no matter what the result of his doing, it will definitely affect the rule of Aragon in Naples, then they will It is unlikely that the occupation will go on smoothly. If at this time, because Maximian is unable to resist the French, and Louis XII can transfer a large number of troops to the south, it may help the French to gain a foothold in Naples.
This is what Alexander would never want to see.
A Frenchman and an Aragonese check and balance with each other and no one can help each other's situation is the best. For this period of time, he communicated frequently with Normanzi and Charlene. He believed that Charalon ’s The mind will not think of his purpose, but from the current situation, the French obviously also do not want to completely break with Billy Shelly at this time.
Naples is facing a delicate situation. When the Aragonese army arrives, the situation will become more complicated and changeable.
If there was a footstep like nothing, Alexander turned back a little and saw Rusha walking towards him barefoot.
Moonlight spread over the shaggy head of blonde hair scattered by Ruo Sha, making her look like an elf walking slowly from the misty forest.
Ruo Sha walked to the window and stood side by side with Alexander. The tall body allowed the two people to stand together without raising or lowering their heads. As long as they twisted their necks slightly, they could see the waves in each other's eyes.
The night view of the moon in the Billy Shelly Mountains in the middle of the night is very peaceful, except for the cry of the nightingale from time to time, everything is as calm as the quiet water.
"Brother, how long have we not enjoyed this kind of peace?" Ruosha spoke, and she glanced at Alexander calmly. "I remember the last time I was so leisurely or in a farm in Agrie. At that time, we could even do anything. No, just staying in the farm cellar and barn, at that time you can even be happy to find a few more jars of stored honey. "
"Yeah, but now even if someone reports to me and talks to some place about allowing local circulation of Ladia coins with Florin, I won't be too happy," Alexander said and shook his head. "Of course, I would be very pleased if Ladia can win the entire French or Aragonese market. "
Ruosha noticed Alexander's slightly mocking look, which made her a little confused.
Ruosha thinks she knows Alexander the most, but even now she feels more and more that she can't keep up with Alexander.
Expedition to the Balkans, layout of Italy, attention to Portugal, and now he has made various preparations for Castile and Aragon. Zuosha leans slightly on the mullion, supporting the window sill with his elbows and looking at Alexander without blinking: "Tell me exactly how ambitious you are, and how big a world you want to get."
"My ambition, oh, it's actually very small," Alexander raised his hand and pinched a small piece with his thumb and index finger to show to Rusha. "You should ask, how big a world will you get, don't forget to promise that you will Get something much bigger and newer than you think. "
Ruosha smiled silently. In fact, she didn't feel that she needed those things, but seeing Alexander like this made her a little fascinated.
"The outside world is very big, Ruosha, much larger than we know today, do n’t you want to know what is on the other side of the sea, and what kind of land and people are there, I am just because of this Let Tiego pay attention to the explorers. They will bring us more than wealth, but also an understanding of the world. Believe me, you will soon know that compared with Europe like today, we will What kind of magical world it will be. "
Ruosha didn't immediately know what the New World looked like, but the bad news was still a bit late, but it still reached Billy Shelley. Count Modillo was arrested in Sicily.
When she heard this accident, Ruosha stood up from her throne with excitement. Under the similarly surprised eyes of the courtiers, Ruosha rushed desperately to the businessman who brought the bad news, and her eyes burst out. Inexplicably anxious and angry loudly asked: "Who is it, what is going on, why is my uncle caught by the Sicilian?"
The businessman was overwhelmed and looked at the queen, who was already a bit distraught because of anger and anxiety. He wanted to bow but was grabbed by Ruo Sha's arm. After a while, the businessman had to inquire about some of the zeros he knew. The thing that came out was said: "Your Majesty, the Earl seems to have been captured at the home of the Cameronian nobleman of the noble regiment. I do n’t know the specific reasons, but it is said that the Earl was accused of Sicily breaking out a few years ago Participants of the Bloody Nights incident, you know that Sicily is ruled by Governor Flamenza. That Governor is a very cruel person. I heard that the Earl was imprisoned in the dungeon of the Governor ’s Palace. I know this. ... "
"Oh, my poor uncle!" Zuo Sha made a cry. "They locked him up. He's too old to be tortured. War, I want to start a war against Sicily! My brother is in Oh, I want him to immediately send troops to save the count, my poor Uncle Modillo. "
Ruosha's cry reverberated in the hall, the courtiers looked at each other, they didn't know how to dissuade the queen.
The importance of Count Modillo to the queen, or to the exile of Billicelli ’s palace, is unquestionable, although many heard that the arrest of the Count was the Sicilian Governor Flomensa, and many people could not help but choose silence, but more People have begun to think about their lives. Perhaps with the absence of the count, Billy Shelley ’s small court may have a new power change, but everyone still realizes that the queen is hysterical because of anger and grief. serious.
Just declare war on Sicily?
This idea is obviously unrealistic to the court officials.
Not to mention that Billy Shelley does n’t have the capital to compete with a huge kingdom like Sicily. Even if they can find ways to organize an army, they still count on reinforcements from Aragon.
I do n’t know that Ferdinand ’s ambition of Naples still puts the hope of driving away the French in the same brotherhood of two Sicilies. Do n’t say at this time that only Count Modillo was arrested, even if the queen was not With fair treatment, these courtiers will also try to discourage the queen from being patient.
Ruosha didn't give the courtiers the opportunity to say something like the overall situation. She took advantage of her emotional excitement and simply ran away from the council. After hearing that Alexander was summoning some territories from Agrig After the squire, she broke into Alexander's room directly, and unceremoniously reported the harvest to the lord lord, and saw the queen who rushed in and hurried out even the panicked squires.
"I'm going to wage war." Zuosha said directly to Alexander, "I'm going to rescue Uncle Modillo. He must be in the Sicilian dungeon at this time."
Alexander didn't speak at once. His quill lightly lit on the paper, and the nib made ink marks on the slightly yellowed paper.
After a while, he asked, "Did you decide?"
"Decided." Ruosha had completely calmed down at this time. "I must do it, and you must do it. This is what we owe him."
Alexander nodded silently and slowly stood up, then he looked at the door of the big open room, raised his voice and said to the outside: "Shell ~"
"Sir, I'm here."
The Balkan who always wore that curling hat immediately heard the sound at the door, as if he had been hiding in the corner outside the door before, ready to answer.
"Passing my order, in the name of the Regent Queen and myself, ordered all the troops of Montina, Cosenza, Agri and Billy Shelley to prepare for the battle, and the commander of the army, Aufrei, immediately prepared for the war, Commanded to dispatch to the special envoy of Tachen to Taranto. "
A series of orders dazzled Schell. Fortunately, he had mastered the habits of some Earl Lords during this time, and he was more suitable for being a bodyguard than Busaco. He was more clever than Busaco.
The queen looked a little bad, her eyes were red, because her anger and sad body were still trembling slightly, which was even more terrifying in the eyes of Schell than the appearance of the assassin.
The guards figured out that the queen at this time was supposed to let Lord Earl declare war on the Pope, and he might agree without hesitation. As for what enraged Mrs. Lucrezia what to do next, probably the Lord would not consider it for now of.
So Shelle left without thinking about it, and he had to convey these orders as soon as possible.
"My army of Montina and your grenadier can be the main force of this battle, and the army of the territory of Cosenza and the reserve forces of Agri can assist them, and the defender of Billy Shelly cannot use this time. They, in addition, we need enough ships. It was easy to handle in Naples before. Now we have to ask for help from Taranto. I hope they are not scared by the Ottomans. They do n’t even dare to go out of the sea. " Steps until Ruosha suddenly held down his right hand writing these ideas on paper.
"Am I too self-willed?" Zuosha asked in a low voice. "He is indeed my uncle. I have been with me even longer than my father. I even think I am his daughter, but You are not, you are just ... "
"Did you forget that he was also my uncle?" Alexander withdrew his hand slightly, looking at Rusha's clear face and calm face. "Listen, as you said, we have to save him because we owe him." He did a lot for us, no matter what his purpose was but he went to Sicily this time for us, so this is what we should do for him. "
Ruosha nodded her head slightly, then she sat down and began to think about it, then she turned to look at Alexander: "Do you think it is appropriate to start a war against Sicily at this time?"
When she heard this question, Alexander looked at her, and her eyes fell on him with a slightly inquiring look. At this time, she looked completely like a queen who was inquiring the minister for a major national policy, and It's no longer a young girl who is excited because she was shocked by the arrest of a loved one.
"Many people are still dreaming of getting support from Aragon, or taking the opportunity to connect with the Aragonese as they did a few years ago. I can even imagine that in Billy Shelley, if Ferdinand announced the occupation of Aragon He will immediately turn to the past. "Alexander looked at Ruosha." We and Aragon cannot get along well. Since it is better to tear this disguise as soon as possible. Speaking of using Earl as a reason is not a good excuse. "
Ruosha nodded her head slightly, and then looked at Alexander for a while, before continuing to ask, "Are there any other reasons besides these?"
Rosa ’s question made Alexander think about it, and then smiled lightly: "In fact, this is what the French want to see. They hope that there is a contradiction between us and the Aragonese. Charlene has also hinted before, hope we Can find some trouble for the Aragonese by infiltrating Sicily. "
"It turns out this way." Luo Sha nodded as if she got a satisfactory answer.
Because the Count of Naples, Modillo, was arrested, Lao Sha, the exiled Queen of Naples, Cosenza, who was in exile in Billy Shelley, decided to send troops to Sicily!
Once this news came out, it shocked everyone.
Many people think this regent queen is crazy.
In terms of the strength of the two Sicilian kingdoms, Naples was originally inferior to Sicily, not to mention the strong backing of the Kingdom of Aragon behind Sicily, how could Ferdinand of Aragon tolerate such a thing.
But the most important thing is that Naples, who has now been reduced to exile, is also counting on the support of the same brother of Aragon to return to the country, but Ruosha actually wants to turn his face and declare war with Sicily. Of people think that the regent queen may have really lost her mind.
When it was said that her husband had been mad at first, many people suddenly felt that perhaps the royal family of Naples was cursed.
Does the court of Naples in exile have the ability to wage war against Sicily at this time?
The main force of the Montina Hunting Guard Regiment composed of 1500 Balkans and the Cosenza First Grenadier Company of 400 can mobilize less than a thousand but the sturdy Kosenza territory, There are about the same number of reserve forces in the Agri territory.
When someone really calculated carefully, they were surprised to find that the Neapolitans could actually organize an army of about 3,700 people.
Although this amount is less than half of the French invasion of Naples, it is enough to make many people feel incredible.
Among them were the French commander Charlene in Naples.
Although he never underestimated Alexander's strength, this conclusion after careful calculation made Charlene look at the figures on the paper for a while.
Did you neglect the pair of siblings too much?
Charlene asked himself secretly, but then shook his head with a smile.
He has never looked down on Alexander, but this does not mean that he can fully grasp all the trends of the other party, but now the choice of the brother and sister makes Shaerlun very happy.
Regardless of whether the Aragonese will interfere in Naples, Charlene is very willing to see the conflict between the two Sicily ~ EbookFREE.me ~ for this he also made a hint to Alexander through Normezi.
At that time, Alexander did not give any response, which made Charlene feel that he had failed to provoke two Sicilian strategies.
But no one thought that the Count Modillo would suddenly go to Sicily, and the Sicilian Governor, Flamenca, actually arrested him.
"God is also sheltering France and its king." Charlene crossed his chest to express his sigh of near-miracle development, and then he thought for a moment and asked the servant to invite Normezi.
"Count, I need your help," Charlene said to Normezi. "I want to organize a fleet of nearby ships as soon as possible, which can hold about 4,000 to 4,500 people."
Seeing Normezzi's enlightened glance, Charlene nodded: "You guessed it count, I think our Naples friend needs help."
