Chapter 137 Reorganization of Order

Chapter 137 Reorganization of Order
The road built from Bukuryeshti to Sofia has played a role, the speed of material transportation has been greatly improved, and the merchants have been allowed to transport part of the materials through exchange, reducing the burden on the government.

Since Ottoman's failure is a high probability thing, then it is time to deal with Serbia.For this Balkan rebellion, Wallachia must be annexed, but if it is done now, the danger index may explode directly.

"Your Highness, a letter from the Grand Duke."

Mircea sent a letter to Peter, stating the next strategic plan, and praised his military training methods, and then asked him to plan the annexation of Serbia, after all, Hungary would not leave it alone.

In terms of land, population, economy, and military strength, Wallachia is really not afraid of Hungary, but it depends on Hungary's opinion that it is mainly afraid of affecting the whole body. Behind Hungary is the entire Catholic world. They think about it all the time. Re-establishing a Latin Empire, now that Serbia had converted to Catholicism, made Peter cautious.

However, Wallachia is not without opportunities.The Macedonian region that Serbia just occupied belongs to the Ottomans, and it is not a bad idea to use this region to make a fuss.But Ottoman still had to cede the area.

In the next month, the two sides scouted each other, but they both understood that this was just the calm before the storm.Everyone is preparing for the ultimate battle between Bulgaria and Serbia.

Bayezid and Serbia reached an agreement in private to return all the defenders here at the cost of abandoning the Macedonian region, so that Ottoman had nearly 6000 troops to supplement, but it was still not as good as the opposite side.At this time, Wallachia surpassed Ottoman in the number of troops for the first time, which was the result of reforms. On May 5, the two sides met at Bafsa near Adrian.

On the Ottoman side, there were 24000 infantry, 5000 cavalry, and 30 artillery pieces; on the Wallachia side, 30000 infantry, 6000 cavalry, and 90 artillery pieces. In addition, 5000 peasant soldiers from the Andre Society were on their way.

At this time, Bayezid has learned his lesson. He first waits for the opponent to attack, and then creates the illusion of defeat, and then it is what he is best at.But Wallachia is not such a person who can get carried away so easily, neither of the two armies moved, just wasted like that.

The mountainous terrain of Bafsa is not conducive to cavalry combat, which greatly reduces the combat effectiveness of Sipahi, which Ottoman is proud of, and this is why Bayezid does not want to take the initiative to attack.

Wallachia's artillery was the first to break the tranquility. The artillery fired shells at the enemy's position, and Ottoman also used artillery to fight back. However, Ottoman's artillery was still inferior to the research and manufacture of Wallachia, and its range and power were greatly reduced.

Then the Wallachian Cossacks took the lead, harassing the Ottoman flanks, and Sipahi tried to drive them off, but to no avail.Seeing that there was no expulsion, more and more Sipahi joined in. At this time, the Cossacks began to retreat, and Sipaxi took advantage of the situation to pursue.

"Whoever tells them to chase after them will come back to me!"

Bayezid shouted in the camp, and the messengers below did not dare to delay for a moment, and immediately conveyed the Sultan's order, but it was too late.Sipahi was within firing range of Wallachia.

"Fire!"

The Wallachian musketeers fired ammunition at Sipahi, and the spearmen stopped them from advancing, and the Ottoman offensive gradually came to a standstill.After withstood the first wave of offensive, Wallachia's counterattack also began.

Since Sipahi attacked Wallachia's left flank, Ottoman's right flank was not protected by cavalry, and Wallachia's army began to push back. At the same time, the right-wing infantry also attacked Ottoman's left flank. Bayezid had no choice but to Bite the bullet and fight.

Having said that, when did Bayezid become so cowardly, oh, probably because he was frightened by those Ottoman soldiers last time.It's just horrible.

The courage of the Ottoman soldiers made up for the lack of weapons, and there was a stalemate between the two sides.Under the strong command of Mircea, the Ottoman right wing showed signs of retreat.

"Hold on, don't retreat." Suleiman yelled at the soldiers. In order to make up for his mistakes, he could not be the first to escape, nor could he fail.

Even so, the enemy's firepower was too fierce. In order to obtain more damage, Constantine temporarily changed the three-stage shooting to six-stage shooting. After practice, the lethality has indeed increased.Bayezid

The musketeers and gunners kept firing towards the Ottoman camp, and one of the ammunition hit a distance of 30 meters from Bayezid. It is not known what would have happened if it hadn't been for Yeniceri's protection.

"Damn, hate, hate, hate, these damned heretics, Allah will not let you go!"

Bayezid was incompetent and furious. Although he had won many times with less and defeated the Western coalition forces in the Battle of Skopje, he had never seen such weapons and formations before. He did not expect that Wallachia would become his failure. The place where the halberd sinks into the sand.

"Sultan, the enemy has breached our right position. Retreat!"

Bayezid watched helplessly as his army was divided and surrounded, even if he had great abilities, he was powerless.In the other direction, Wallachia's light cavalry rushed out quickly, aiming directly at the Sudan's camp. Bayezid had no choice but to retreat first. Six hours later, the battlefield gradually quieted down.

Wallachia exchanged 5000 casualties for Ottoman losses of 16000, many of whom were Balkan lords.This was an unprecedented failure since the Ottoman expansion in Europe.The Balkan order appears to be rewritten.

The matter has come to this point, and no peace talks will work. Bayezid needs a period of time to think about it. After all, the impact of the past few years has been too great for him.A small Wallachia completely wiped out Ottoman's European achievements over the past few decades, and the ancestors knew about it and had to kill him.

Wallachia took advantage of this opportunity to occupy many surrounding lands, and the Ottoman siege of Constantinople was actually lifted.The remaining land of Ottoman is only the coast of the Aegean Sea, which is simply a map of the Roman Empire of Mikhail VIII.It's miserable.

The news reached Adrian and Constantinople, the people cheered, and the bells of the Hagia Sophia kept ringing.After decades of suffering, this city of longing in the world finally has nothing to worry about. There are no heretics and nomads.

The news was also known to the Italians in Galatia. They were sour and envious. There is such a country that is afraid of heretics, and the ruler should be happy with their businessmen to boost the economy and trade, so they have to reply quickly.
