Warlock Royal Family

On October 1526, 10, Suleiman had been in Buda for 15 days.

This time should have been enough for the Hungarian royal palace to be completely renovated and given a new look to suit His Majesty Suleiman's status and taste.

But the royal palace in Buda is still the same, except for a brand new chapel replacing the old chapel, there is no change, which is not the efficiency of the Ottoman Empire.

This time the Ottomans did not renovate and transform in time.

Although their efficiency is extremely high, there are really not enough manpower in the current state. [

His Majesty Suleiman's resources are limited. Of course, this is just the statement of the Ottoman propaganda department.

In fact, his strength is of course limited, especially in the hinterland of Hungary, which is thousands of kilometers away from Istanbul. Of course, this does not mean that he cannot organize enough manpower to decorate his new palace.

It's just that he wisely used the available manpower on other, more urgent matters.

After all, Ladislaus was poaching him and making trouble for his employees.

"Your Majesty, in the past month, we lost more than 500 civilians and [-] soldiers just on the transportation line along the Danube River." The number provided by Ibrahim Pasha is quite huge. "The civilians in other areas also lost about [-] people, and the death toll accounted for about two-thirds. The rest fled because of fear."

The number of Austrian elites is limited, but under their instigation, the local Hungarian resistance is also extremely active in attacking the transportation line.

"Shouldn't the provinces of Egypt be fully mobilized?" All the provinces of the Ottoman Empire were participating in the conquest of Hungary, but to varying degrees.Some provinces, such as Egypt, have only minimally mobilized.There is also a huge surplus of food and manpower as reserves.

"No, it's not yet time, let the Armenians and Georgians perform their duties first." The population of Egypt and the grain of the Nile River can be quickly transported to Europe through the Eastern Mediterranean, which is now controlled by the Ottomans. Unimpeded, the food and manpower of Syria and Jordan are enough to cope.

"I think the Principality of Austria should not let the power of the precious province left to me by my father? It is only necessary to mobilize the civilians of Egypt and Iraq when the Spanish navy has completed the assembly and needs to transport food completely by land. But you can The notice of preparation has been issued in advance, so don't be too hasty." Compared with the Austrian army.Suleiman is still more worried about the Spanish fleet, and he wants to keep part of his national power in response to possible Spanish intervention.

"The intelligence agencies in Naples and Palermo did not warn, and those battleships are still in mainland Spain." Ibrahim Pasha's intelligence network was not very efficient in Spain. Those religious inquisitions executed heretics day and night, although many Injustice, but it did incinerate traitors and would-be traitors in the fence.

In Li Di's history, the Iberian Peninsula was the only area where the Xingyue Sect entered and was completely eliminated.It is impossible to do this without extraordinary means.

The Inquisition established by generations of wise and decisive monarchs is definitely not to cause pain for their own country.

However, the southern Italian region controlled by Ferdinand is not so strict. Different cultures inevitably reduce the country's control power. Madrid's deterrence here cannot prevent some Italians from cooperating with the Ottoman Empire irrationally.

What's more, it is the focus of the work of the Ottoman intelligence agency. Compared with Hungary, Italy is the area that Ibrahim Pasha painstakingly manages.The Spanish overseas fleet has always been a concern of the Ottoman Empire.

There is also the movement of the Holy See, which is also a matter of great concern to the Ottomans.

"The Roman side sent Cardinal Fonnese to crown Szapo Rai? Is it the Fonnesse whose younger sister is the mistress of Alexander VI?" In fact, the detailed resume of every cardinal of the Roman Church, the Ottoman Empire have.

"That's true, Your Majesty, but this Fannese is definitely not just a villain who presents his sister for glory. In the recent elections of the Pope, he has been able to stand on the right team every time, and his wings are already quite full." Ibrahim Pasha had intel inside the Church of Cyric, which the Habsburgs had dreamed of.The problems faced by Cyric believers everywhere in Spain and Austria are not only willing to fight them, but also affect intelligence efficiency. Maybe most spies will follow the command of the chief to monitor a cardinal, but The enthusiasm for work is very limited.

The Ottoman intelligence apparatus had no such inherent flaws.

"After I deal with the Austrians and return to Istanbul, I will deal with the Medici and those red-skinned mice in Rome." Suleiman is not interested in these information for the time being. "Tell me, why is the loss of our transportation line out of control? We are very experienced with the guerrillas. After all, didn't we Ottomans attack the supply line of the Byzantines in the first place?" [

"The guerrillas were not formed spontaneously by the Hungarians. According to the description of the defeated soldiers, there should be a group of elites as the core of the guerrillas."

"It seems that compared to the former owner of Buda, this one in Vienna is indeed more alert."

"These guerrillas can get shelter and supplies from the enemy fleet on the Danube, and locals can provide intelligence. We can't solve these enemies quickly."

"The key is the fleet on the Danube, which is the source of the Austrians' small advantage. They provide more than limited support and limited weapons." Suleiman realized the key to the problem. "The existence of this fleet has emboldened those Hungarian rebels."

"How about transferring Hayreddin to the Danube?" Ibrahim Pasha proposed. With the support of this powerful druid and his slaves and priests of Dagon, Ottoman's provisional fleet could attack Austria's inland river fleet. The disadvantage is not that big.

Suleiman considered this suggestion seriously for a while, but he finally shook his head: "No, the Spanish overseas fleet is the number one threat. We can hold on by spreading out our troops a little. A few galleys and a boat will reduce our strength in a decisive battle with the Spaniards."

"We can go north for a decisive battle."

"No, they can continue to retreat. They can retreat for hundreds of miles along the Danube. Our supplies will become more and more difficult as we go north. It's fine here. We will consume slowly. Of course, if he is really strong enough I might as well give him a chance."

"You mean to allow him to surrender?" Even Suleiman had some scruples about the fighting power shown by the Austrian and Spanish alliances in the past few years.

If Ladislaus surrendered, it would certainly reduce the centripetal force of the Habsburg League.

Ibrahim Pasha realized that although his master would not say it directly, he had admitted that Ladislaus's struggle was still effective.

"Why not, I have already killed an Agroni, and it is enough to subdue a Habsburg. Of course, every year when I choose, he must crawl in front of me. Thank you for my magnanimity. .”

Of course, the effect is still very limited. (to be continued...)
