Vol 5 Chapter 62: The Battle of the 3 Danubes (1)

When the hare chased by the Ottomans in Gompati was like a deserted hare running out of the city, in Bucharest city, there was also an ongoing dispute over whether to go out to the rescue.
One side insists that the situation is unknown and cannot take risks, while the other side believes that it is a cowardly and timid act to treat the friendly troops who came to the rescue.
The two sides held their stalemate, and at this time, problems specific to the "Allied Forces" were exposed.
Since it is a coalition, it must not be a single person, and if one of them has a leader who is sufficient to compete with the other regardless of status or prestige, then different orders will often appear.
As the Grand Duke of Wallachia, Zeppes obviously has a status, but he does not have enough prestige and prestige, and Sophia as a "Greece Princess" has enough reputation but not enough weight for status and status.
Now the two people are together, so while a large group of people in the city are still arguing about whether to rescue from the city, an army has opened the city gate and greeted the outside.
This rescue army, dominated by the Wallachia of Cepes, first encountered not the Montina army but the Ottoman light cavalry who rushed to the front to try to intercept Gompati.
This encounter did not surprise the Wallachia, but it somewhat surprised the Ottomans.
The experience of the river bank fort made the Ottomans believe that the people in the city would not come out easily, so they dared to chase so deeply, and even this cavalry with more than 100 people dared to almost go down to Bucharest and intercept it.
The sudden encounter turned the two sides into an endless short soldier after the initial panic.
After the Wallachia almost heard the news and immediately from the city, with the continuous reinforcement, the Ottoman army of more than 100 people immediately showed the Ottoman light cavalry's flexibility and not being stubborn. .
After judging that the situation was clearly not conducive to himself, Ottoman quickly retreated, even if he could not be hunted down when he changed from a hunter to a prey, but the light cavalry finally torn the Wallachia to try to wipe them out. The encircling circle of is almost a deserted escape with Gompati.
After some hardships, the Bohemians and Wallachia who finally "victoryed" under Bucharest did not invest in the ecstatic celebration, but stared at each other with hostility, staring at each other with great momentum. There is a meaning to pinch again after driving away the Ottomans.
The Balkans do not like the Bohemians, and neither the Kingdom of Bohemia nor the Gypsies with the same name are welcome.
Even if it is Ladislas II, they actually do n’t like it. As for the Bohemian nobility and civilians, for the Wallachia, they are no different from the Ottomans. The contradiction between Laguia and Hungary is more hatred than the Ottomans.
Gompati was very curious. He had heard of the legend of the Greek princess. Although much of the princess ’s news was too legendary, this did not prevent him from thinking that the girl was a puppet.
But now he is a little strange, because the army of the other party seems to be loyal to the princess, and these Wallachias are very tough at first glance. As for the famous Fras III, He has just passed by other people's territory, and naturally he has heard of it for a long time.
Gompati was led into the city, and the Bohemians were actually rescued. Those Wallachias clearly felt not very happy, and the officers who led the team felt inexplicable.
Even when they entered the city, the officer casually dealt with a few sentences and immediately went to Cepes, who was waiting for the news, to report this strange situation to him.
"Bohemians, actually Bohemians?" Zeppes was also surprised. Obviously, these should be from the army of Ladislas II. Something is puzzling, and it can only be argued from before. You can always know that even Ladislas II himself did not know exactly where this sudden reinforcement came from.
"I went to see the man, isn't he sent by the Earl of Montina?"
"No one, that person has admitted that he is the man of the count," the officer shook his head. "According to that man, the army of the count seemed a bit complicated. He said about the army in several places. In some places, I have I have n’t heard it. "
"Anyway, this is a good thing. By the way, did you ask the officer where his count is now?" Zeppes asked casually, although he thought that the count of Montina only sent such a few hundred people. The light cavalry came a little stingy, but thinking about the terrible Ottomans, Zeppes could understand the man ’s caution.
Maybe we should send someone to contact the count, and hope that today ’s events have not disappointed us. "
"Sir, I'm about to say this," the officer's report with a somewhat weird look. "Listening to that person's statement, the Earl of Montina seems to be preparing to attack the Sudanese barracks."
As soon as this remark came out, Cepes, who was walking forward, was settled there as if struck by lightning. After a while, he turned around and looked at the officer with incredible eyes.
"You heard it right?"
Seeing how the officer shook his head, Cepes only pondered for a moment, then turned and walked briskly towards the horses next to him.
"When I go to the castle, I will see the king immediately, God, there will be a big mess!"
The attack on the Sultan's Royal Camp was Alexander's boldest and most arrogant move to date.
In fact, he did not make up his mind until he crossed the Danube West Bank.
Upper Tatarjes is located on the left bank of the Argyle River, which is irregularly parallel to the Danube River. The abundant water sources that intersect these two rivers make the Bucharest Plains the most fertile land in the Balkans.
So for Alexandria, after entering the Bucharest Plains before, he did not need all kinds of food supplies to carry with him, and the rich villages were enough to provide him with sufficient military food.
However, he also knew that this convenient condition also saved the Ottomans from worrying about it. Considering that Mohammed II had besieged the city for a few months, he still did not worry about eating and drinking. Later, he had to withdraw his troops if it was not because of injuries and the loss of the army. , Alexander knew that the trouble of finding the Ottomans on the supplies seemed not so easy.
The only thing that can be counted on now is Hurva ’s harassment of the Ottomans in the rear. Although the military food has been eased after entering the Bucharest Plains, the materials required for an expeditionary army are not just food. It is because of this. The harassment of the Ottomans is still very fruitful.
This can be seen from the fact that Sudan has to suspend its advancement.
In addition, the Ottomans are intruders after all, and it is not so easy to collect food in the conquered area smoothly.
Going upstream along the Alje River, you can go directly to the road to Upper Tatar Jesh.
The sultan's royal camp is there, and around the royal camp is the Ottoman army of 77,000!
The pressure mountain did not think of going directly to the Sudanese Imperial Battalion. Although he has an already experienced army and a considerable number of troops, he thinks about the disparate strength between himself and the Ottomans. No other army had more odds, so he chose to face the facts sensibly.
However, since he was thinking of instigating war, Alexander never thought of simply sending Gompati to attack a right-wing fortification and simply end it.
Although the idea of ​​direct attack on the imperial camp is not realistic, this does not mean that there is no chance to take advantage of it.
Restrictions and the poor traffic and messaging limitations of today ’s era. Although the Ottoman army has many pioneering innovations that the predecessors did not have, the Ottomans still maintain the same military system as most European troops in the military camps. Some characteristics that have been formed for a long time.
For example, in addition to having to extend to a right-wing fortification formed on the Danube because of terrain, Ottoman ’s army barracks chose to be on a flattened plain on the left bank of the Alger River in a compact rather than scattered manner. Stationed.
Among them, the sultan's royal camp is on the Tatar Jesh on the river bank.
This arrangement is of course mainly to facilitate mobility, and another reason is to prevent possible attacks from reinforcements from the interior of Europe.
The Sudan has received a new secret letter from the people of Ashurk. ​​In the letter, Ashurk reiterated the attitude of the European monarchs towards this expedition to Sudan. Among them, the Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire caught the attention of Sudan Maximian seems to have once again sent one of his palaces, Kotschah, to Rome. At the same time, the envoys of the French in the West frequently traveled between Paris and the Vatican. The people drove out of Castile in the Iberian Peninsula, and it is said that a general named Gonzalo, who had gained a reputation in the war of regaining the lost ground, sent to the Vatican to hook up with the pope.
All this seems to remind Sudan that the Europeans are clearly concerned about his expedition, not to mention Ladislas II in Bucharest.
This series of things may make Sudan decide to be cautious. He contracted the army as much as possible, and ordered the construction of semi-permanent fortifications in Upper Tatars.
Obviously Sudan has changed the idea of ​​quickly taking Bucharest, he is ready to consume with the people in that city.
But this was obviously not what Alexander needed, and for Alexander time was his fatal weakness.
It's March now. Looking at the spring fields everywhere, and even from time to time, I can even see a few bears running on the plains because of the warm spring flowers. Alexander's heart becomes anxious.
No one knows how soon Louis XII will launch a new war to invade Italy. If this "armed tour" cannot be ended quickly before then, Alexander may be in a terrible situation of being caught in a two-line trouble.
So he has no time to continue to wait and wait and see.
Taking the initiative to attack, no matter what direction the next thing will take, this is the only solution as soon as possible.
Moreover, Alexander did not think that things would really become unmanageable, because he had heard from sporadic news that Bucharest seems very lively today.
Alexander did not intend to cross the Alger River directly. He knew that if he did that, he would find death. In the face of the most powerful army in this era, although he had enough confidence in his army, he had not thought that Monti The Najun can face the Ottomans almost ten times as many as themselves.
Alexander chose a seemingly helpless but the only way, that is to march upstream along the right bank of the Alje River, and then set up a position facing off from the upper Tatar Jesh.
As for Gumpati's conjecture, he might have taken the idea of ​​direct raiding of the army in the Sudanese battalion. If Alexander knew it, he would only lament that his future artillery general would be too whimsical.
Bucharest City, the Danube River, and the Alger River, these two lines form the great delta of the Bucharest Plain.
Now Sophia is at the apex of the triangle, Ottoman Sultan Bayesert II is at the bottom of the triangle, and Alexander is almost at the very center of the triangle.
In front of him, across the Alje River is the Sultan ’s 80,000 army, and behind him is the beloved girl he secretly vowed to take away from this crisis, and there is the big copper mine he has always missed. The owner.
When Bayeste received the report, he was reading the war reports on Asia and Africa sent by his two sons.
For the sons, Bayesert II was somewhat emotionally complicated.
Because he was competing with his brothers for power, Bayesett was even more concerned about how to determine the future heir, especially as he got older, he was even more worried about who should inherit the throne of Sudan in the future.
He sent the two most capable sons to Anatolia and Egypt, trying to choose a heir who was more satisfying in the war against the Persians and the elimination of Mamluk in Egypt.
But neither Mahmoud as the eldest son nor Selim as the second son seemed to be able to fully satisfy his father, especially when he looked at the battle reports sent to him by his two sons. The two sons are colluding with him.
Although the wars against the Mamluks of Egypt were victorious, Selim was constantly complaining. He said that his army was too small, so there were fewer places where he could directly rule, and this result It is unable to timely provide the heavy taxes that should be afforded to Constantinople.
The letter from another son, Mehmet, also annoyed the Sultan. The war with the Persians began to seem to be going well, but now there seems to be some surprises, and the Sultan feels incredible It is said that the trouble that caused him is actually a little boy less than 14 years old!
Although the leader of the Safi Order, which is said to be quite prosperous in Persian territory, is very young, it has shown extraordinary ability, especially in spreading teachings and establishing an alliance with the Ottoman Empire through diplomacy Frequently caused a lot of trouble for Mahmoud.
Bayesert II had a headache ~ EbookFREE.me ~ He is now trying to deepen the Balkan rule through this expedition, but his two sons are confused by opponents in the backyard. This makes Sudan a little bit unsettled.
It was at this time that Bayesert II heard the report that "an army appeared on the other side of the Alje River."
The Sultan in a bad mood found that he finally found a vent to vent his dissatisfaction. With the order issued, the generals of Ottoman got such an order: to teach the stupid barbarian opposite!
On April 4, 1499, the Ottoman army crossed the Alger River and launched an attack on the Montina army on the other side of the river. The Battle of the Alger River began.
At this time no one knows what this battle means for Sudan's expedition.
