Vol 7 Chapter 102: 3-corner battle (4) war is inevitable

->->
The latest website: Louis XII sat at the table and carefully read the old letters he just wrote, then picked up the pen and changed a few places that he thought were inappropriate. After feeling satisfied, he wanted to stand next to the entourage beckoning the letter Pass it to him.
"To the queen, this is my sincerity for her," Louis XII thought for a while and then said, "Tell her, I hope to be able to talk frankly with her, and it will be for her or me and all of us. Good. "
The follower listened carefully, he knew that the letter was very important to the king, especially after he had just heard about what happened outside Florence, the current French army was somewhat caught in some kind of anxiety.
Louis de Bourbon sent someone unexpectedly bad news to Louis XII, and the army attacking Florence suffered an unexpected and disastrous defeat.
When this news came, everyone including the Pharaoh thought it was a very bad joke, but looking at the messenger's panic-stricken expression, Louis soon realized that something might be more than the Duke of Bourbon reported. Worse.
In the Duke ’s report, Florence became a strong fortress, and its army was fierce and tenacious, but these were not the most important. Louis knew that the Duke of Bourbon was probably exaggerating in order to shirk his responsibility. And even the unexpected failure was not the cause of Louis's uneasiness. The king noticed the emergence of an unexpected Roman Thesia army.
Louis didn't really care much about Bologna's 6th regiment joining the battle.
Although he did not know the strength of this Roman Thesia army, he believed that Louis de Bourbon was frustrated only by carelessness.
The real consideration of the Pharaoh is much more than the appearance of an enemy reinforcement.
He thought of the Venetian and Austrian people who had been so ambiguous so far. The Venetian army had crossed Ferrara but it seemed to suddenly stumble, and the Austrians did not immediately attack after surrounding Milan.
These two intelligences once made Louis XII very happy, and he realized that this was probably a small introduction that led to the breakdown of the anti-French alliance. It was for this reason that although there was a fierce battle with the Naples army, Louis Twelve did not think that the door to "peace" was closed.
However, the emergence of the 6th Regiment of Bologna made him feel that the situation might have changed. This force will voluntarily give up giving up surveillance of enemies from Rome and put into the battlefield, which means that the threat from the direction of Rome no longer exists.
In addition, Louis XII did not believe that the Duchess of Rome Thesia would be foolish to see the purpose of other countries, and put all his own capital into it.
But now the Roman Thesias do this, which makes Louis XII feel threatened.
Perhaps a mistake was made from the beginning. Louis XII thought so. Although he would not admit this idea in public, it did not prevent him from introspecting himself.
It was right to regard Roman Thesia as the first goal to conquer Italy. At first, it was right. A new country that did n’t seem to be very powerful. It was like a gift specially prepared for him. Louis XII even did it. Well, once Romani and Tuscany were conquered, they immediately announced that they were preparing for their own territory.
The reason for this claim is also very simple, because Alexander declared the land after Romania and Tuscany had lost their original heirs, so the French king as the new conqueror did not violate the rights of the legal heirs .
Obviously Louis XII intends to show Charles VIII's play in Milan again in Rome Theseia, but now it seems that things are not so smooth.
The sudden appearance of the Pope's army in Siena was what really surprised Louis XII.
Along with this unexpected change came another news that even caught him off guard for a while-Alexander VI was exiled.
The current Pope ’s army entered the city on the grounds of protecting Siena, which is the direct territory of the Holy See. This sounds like a reasonable reason, but when it was known that the old Rovere was now in charge of the Vatican, Louis XII I knew I might be in a dilemma that I had never thought of before.
"I am here to offer you peaceful suggestions with the utmost sincerity. The great monarchs should not harm the country and the people because of disagreements or forms of will. This is the duty and responsibility of the monarch, so I am here to show you Make suggestions, maybe a frank meeting can save us from a war that may regret everyone. "
Looking at the letter from the French King, Ruosha showed a sweet smile. She didn't know that her smile made the French messenger standing opposite to the Naples officers who were dissatisfied because of the daze. In fact, the queen's smile also made those officers move He didn't open his eyes, but then Luo Sha condensed her charming smile and stared at the Frenchman opposite.
"Does your king want to negotiate with me?"
"Your Majesty, the King thinks it is the duty of a powerful monarch to show his kindness at this time. He does n’t want the Naples to be slaughtered because of his momentary anger. After all, your army has been chased by us for 3 days. When I came in, I noticed that the horses outside your tent were very tired. I believe that if you continue, your army may be completely destroyed. "
The French answered proudly. His arrogant attitude once again caused the anger of the Neapolitans around him. Even some lowly-serving servants scolded the arrogant Frenchman.
Zuosha was not angry because of the French attitude. She took the letter from Louis and stomped slowly, as if thinking about how to reply.
Is quiet all around, all eyes are on the queen, waiting for her to make a decision.
The French look slightly changed. He could see that these officers respected the queen from the heart, which made him a little unexpected.
If it is in the court, this may be normal, but it is a bit strange on the battlefield.
The French originally thought that the queen would first discuss the countermeasures with his generals, but now it seems that the queen herself will make a decision directly, which really makes the French feel a little weird.
Although in this era, it is not uncommon for the monarch to be the commander of the army, but some of them are typical and nominal. These so-called princes who themselves often come to the battlefield only to show martial arts, and a queen ’s role on the battlefield even has It's not as good as an ordinary soldier.
"Please tell your king, I agree with his proposal," Ruo Sha said to the French. "I also don't want to see a war that may involve both of us in greater trouble, so a negotiation is indeed Necessary."
Completed the mission but the puzzled Frenchman hurried off. He knew that the king was eagerly waiting for his reply, which was related to the mission of another emissary sent by the king.
Just when Russa considered the proposal of the negotiation of Louis XII, in Siena, the new commander of the Pope's army, Skop, also saw another letter from the French King.
In the letter, Louis used a frank and surprising attitude to put forward a condition that made Skop find it difficult to refuse.
"20000 Florin?" Skop was surprised by Louis's generosity, so that when he saw this number, he could not help but blurt out, "Just ask us to stay in motion?"
"Yes, adults are so simple," the messenger said with a smile. "This is not in violation of your implementation of the Vatican order, but it is to let your army stay in Siena for a few days. I think your people will be happy. In this way, then you can get 20,000 florin compensation. "
"Well, I have to admit that your king was so generous that it was difficult for me to refuse," Skop, touching his chin, seemed to be considering whether to accept the suggestion, and then he whispered to the messenger two steps forward. Did the Naples attack? "
The messenger frowned secretly and glanced at the commander a little unpleasantly. He did n’t understand why this person asked such an insidious question, so he could only say vaguely:
I ’m sorry I ca n’t answer you. The king decides. "
Skop nodded indifferently, and then said as if he had made up his mind: "I can accept this condition, but I hope your king can guarantee that the French army will not pose a threat to Siena. Na is the direct territory of the Holy See, and I have a responsibility to protect this city from any threats. "
The messenger hesitated and nodded. He knew that the condition proposed by Skop was actually within the expectation of the king. Although this might have some impact on the French army ’s actions, Louis XII obviously hoped to calm down the accident as soon as possible. Of the Pope.
In the evening of July 14th, the rosy evening glow dyed the lush wildflowers everywhere on the open ground to large and magnificent magnificent golden red.
A temporary tent stood between the two armies. Louis XII's body armor appeared majestic on the side of the open field. He brought three people everywhere, except for a clerk and a servant. The only guard was a thin figure. The court attendant, like Louis de Bourbon, this nobleman named Jean Albre was prominent, but no one knows that he will become the future King of Navarre.
Seeing Ruosha from a distance, Louis XII couldn't help but slightly opened her eyes, she had heard about the queen, but she was so young, so beautiful, so surprised him.
Luosha's entourage consisted of her maid and Omo and a bodyguard. When the two parties came to sit under the tent, the monarchs and their men looked at each other.
"Queen, I must admit that you are the most incredible person I have seen in this expedition. Although I think that the Duke of Rome Thesia has been beyond my expectations, everything you have done has completely subverted me. Previous views of any woman or even monarch. "
Louis XII did not conceal his surprise. When Lu Sha heard this, he only showed a reserved smile. The King looked at the face that fascinated most men with a slightly unscrupulous look: "I think if We are not here, but we met in any court. I may even forget my identity as a husband to show admiration to you, but now I only hope that both of us can have a good result. "
Noosa nodded in agreement, she knew that Louis would certainly not be obsessed with her because of her appearance, and she did not think it was something to be proud of. Her good, as long as one can know Too.
"The French withdrew from Rome Thesia."
Luo Sha suddenly said, which even made the clerk around Louis had a busy time because he had no time to open the record book, while Jean Albre and the servants standing beside them showed a surprised look.
"This is my condition," Ruo Sha completely ignored the French man's incredible gaze, she just looked at Louis XII, and although she saw some surprises from the King, she calmed down. Ruo Sha continued to say "Roman Thesia It is the Principality of my brother Alexandre Juliant Gumbre. As his blood relatives and allies, I have an obligation to maintain the security and interests of his Principality. "
"Queen, I can understand your act of fulfilling the obligations of the alliance, but do n’t you think this suggestion is ridiculous?" Louis XII did not feel angry because of Rusha ’s attitude. He calmed down and said softly, "or you I do n’t realize who your real enemy is, but when we are going to start a fierce battle here, what do you think the Venetian is doing, and the emperor, his army is besieging Milan, maybe soon he can Occupy Milan, and you may lose everything here. "
Speaking of where Louis paused, he seemed to want Rusha to consider his words first, so he waved his hand and asked the servant to put the prepared wine on the table: "We may have a night, maybe it will be longer, But I believe it is worth it, because I know that such a smart queen can make the right choice. "
Listening to Louise ’s compliments, Ruosha ’s thin mouth could not help but slightly tilted upwards. She knew that Louis should have known the situation under the city of Florence just as she did. Now the French King proposed peace talks at this moment. The situation is better to be worried about the upcoming stronger enemies.
Just, does Louis XII really know who his enemy is?
"Exit Rome Thesia," unexpectedly on the road, she did not give the French King a breathing time. She did not even touch the wine glass already in front of her, but repeated the sentence that made the French feel unbelievable again with undoubted tone. "Do For the sister of the Duke of Rome Theseia and his most reliable ally, I can sign an agreement with you that can be recognized by him instead of my brother. "
"What kind of contract?" Louis XII's expression finally revealed a little unpleasantness, and he looked at the young queen opposite with a somber face.
"With Palma as the boundary, you can exercise your right to war north of Rumba. I can guarantee that the Principality of Rome Thesia will not interfere in the next war," Rusha nodded like a French clerk on the side, gestured to him Write down these words: "If you can agree to this condition, I can persuade my brother to give up support for Genoa, you should know that his wife is Valentia of Genoa, and his father-in-law is Cardinal Rovere, so you should Know what this means. "
Louis Twelve looked somber, he thought he could temporarily ease the relationship with the queen in front of him through negotiations. After all, although the emergence of the pope ’s army threatened the French, the Naples still had a disparity with their strength.
But he did not expect Ruo Sha to propose such a condition.
Abandoning Lombardy may seem like a generous decision, but Louis XII knew that this condition of Ruo Sha was purely beneficial and cost-effective. Regardless of strength or influence, Roma Thesia had not reached Lombardy far enough to decide this area. The point of fate, so the interesting interest in giving up the requirements of this area, it is not so generous as to know how to advance and retreat.
And as Russa conjectured, even now Louis XII did not think that the Roman Thesia and Naples troops were his real opponents. Even though the failure of the Duke of Bourbon under the city of Florence made him somewhat caught off guard, he still believed that only The talents of Venice and Austria are his real threat.
Therefore, he hoped to temporarily suspend the war with Roma Thesia. As for the young queen opposite, the Pharaoh believed that she should still spare no effort to support her brother because of family reasons.
Then, as long as a truce was reached with Roma Thesia, Nablus would naturally withdraw from the anti-French alliance.
Then he can concentrate on fighting fiercely with Maximil.
However, the conditions proposed by the queen now made Louis XII extremely uncomfortable and extremely annoyed. Even if there was a pope army coveted, Louis still felt that maybe a hard blow should be used to make this man in front of him. The pretty queen was awake.
"Dear Queen, can I understand that this is a rejection of my suggestion?" Seeing Ruo Sha nodded without hesitation, Louis XII stood up helplessly. This result was obviously not what he wanted, but in fact Luo Sha ’s move has obviously blocked the door of peace talks.
I ’m sorry, I did n’t need to bleed. I feel sorry for the life cost of the soldiers on both sides, and I can assure you that you will eventually find that Wrongly standing on the side of an enemy who has a legally claimed French king, you will leave an infamous sum in history. "
When she heard Louis XII's words, Ruosha suddenly laughed. She slightly raised her hands and twisted her blonde hair like the sun with her fingers. She smiled at Louis XII with a gentle expression that was rare since the advent of women. Say: "My brother once said to me that truth only exists within the cannon's range, so what you are doing now is not condemning me, but praying to God that you can win this war. , Because it is only the last loser who leaves an infamous sum in history. "
Louis XII was slightly contemplative and then nodded his head gently to indicate ~ EbookFREE.me ~ He knew that the negotiation had come to an end, and then he had to talk with blood and fire.
Politely salute each other and left each other, even at the end, both sides still maintained a noble posture, but when the two monarchs left the tent, the attendants of both sides pulled out their swords at the same time and severely cut off the pillars supporting the tent.
The tent collapsed, and the army on both sides of the open ground caused an uproar instantly.
The fall of the tent heralds the breakdown of He Tan.
War is inevitable!
"I bought the Pope's army neutrality with 20,000 Florin," Louis XII returned to the barracks that night and said loudly to his generals, "I hope this money is worth it because I want to put that arrogance here." The queen of the United States lost her helmet and unloaded her armor. I want to force her and the Principality of Rome to quit the alliance immediately and let Bourbon clean up his mess, because then I will have a decisive battle with Maximilian, believe me this is the last time The war that determines the fate of this land. "
Just as the French King gave generously to his generals, Ruosha was also giving a speech to her officers: "We will defeat the French because they do not know who their real enemy is, but I can assure you After tomorrow, they will know what kind of nightmare they are facing. "
At this time, Louis XII did not know that the army of Roman Thesia, mainly composed of the Northern Army led by Compati, had already forced the city of Siena after defeating Louis de Bourbon.
