Warlock Royal Family

() "Where's the messenger?"

While Ladislaus broke through the coagulated blood with a special letter opener, Sarzastan asked about the courier.

"died."

"Dead? Died from injury?" Frundsberg continued to ask. The top intelligence requires that the envoy holding the token cannot be replaced. It is not uncommon for the courier to be overburdened and die after reaching the destination.

But the guard seemed very embarrassed, "This envoy came all the way from Vienna, but he probably didn't lose his strength to death. Although he was exhausted when he entered His Majesty's camp, he shouldn't have died."

The guard almost buried his head in the ground when he said this, but he knew he couldn't hide it, so he continued without stopping despite the embarrassment: "He was killed by a guard, and that traitor killed a The companion guarding the courier then attacked the courier. His courier should have had his artery cut suddenly. The courier was probably in an unconscious state at all. He must have got the letter, but because he didn't know the courier's body, the letter could not be A special letter opener will trigger a flaming arrow. He was blasted in the head by this magic. I think I am to blame. If the adults think that I should resign...... ..."

"Determine the number of insiders according to the confidentiality regulations, and at the same time conduct an investigation immediately, based on beliefs and economic conditions." Sarzastan interrupted the guard's self-report on the responsibility issue, but asked him to block the news and start a self-examination.

Ladislaus' guards should all be followers of Barbarossa, and they all come from ancient noble families in Austria. This kind of incident is a big scandal.

Confidentiality is even more important, and the speed at which bad news spreads largely determines the difficulty of response and the extent of damage.

"Based on belief, within three generations of any family, no, within five generations, the bodyguards who have believers of Ms. Huofa will be quarantined immediately." Ladislaus has quickly read the letter.Machiavelli did not write a few words in total.

After the guard went out, Sazastan and Frundsberg passed it around immediately.

'There is a rebellion in Vienna.Numerous priests of Sune are on the move, and there are indications that the Chosen of Sune went to war in person and captured the militia arsenal, 1526 November 11, Niccolò Machiavelli. '

The excessive general mobilization for this war also caused chaos in Austria.

"We cannot expect the remaining forces to put down this rebellion by themselves." Sarzastan bluntly stated what Machiavelli implied in his letter.

"The army can immediately return from the same route, and the forward troops can reach Bratislava within fifteen days." Frundsberg saw an ominous omen in Machiavelli's letter. "Even if the enemy had controlled Vienna at that time, there was not enough time for internal cleaning. The people of Vienna will definitely support you when they see the double-headed eagle battle flag of the warlock royal family. No matter how strong the city wall is, it cannot be defended without the support of the people. , but if possible, we should return to Vienna as soon as possible, the old minister is not talented, and he is willing to lead a thousand cavalry from Szekesberg and Styria to Vienna."

Compared with the army, it must rely on the Danube to operate.A small number of elite troops can travel a shorter straight-line distance.

"Vienna has the entrance to the God Realm of His Majesty the Knight of Ambitions, and it is not so easy to conquer, even the voters of the Fire-haired Lady cannot do this." Machiavelli had no scruples in the letter, but Sazastan still did not dare Directly mentioning the name of the fire-haired lady is much worse than Cyric, but Sune is definitely far above Barbarossa in terms of divine power. "Although Ms. Huofa is very strong, her power is difficult to project. In this material world, the organization and strength of our mortals are still the only comparison. True gods cannot participate in battles between mortals."

But after Sazartan paused, he still didn't dare to continue to speak big words: "It's just letting traitors poison the country, especially around the capital circle, which will do too much damage to the economy. We should go north as soon as possible."

Ladislaus had kept his eyes closed since he saw Machiavelli's letter, and he didn't open his eyes until the two trusted advisors had finished speaking, and then he opened his eyes and issued orders.

"All those with knowledge must not act alone. Monitor each other to ensure that information does not spread." This is for the guards.

"The whole army will be mobilized immediately, with a small number of elite cavalry as the lead, and the infantry will follow up and invite the Ottoman cavalry to the east." Ladislaus' order greatly exceeded the expectations of the two close advisers, but they could not get a word at all. Chance, Ladislaus said emphatically.

"Your Highness Frenzberg, half an hour after the army left Bolch, you led [-] Austrian cavalry and [-] Hungarian cavalry back to Vienna by the shortest route. Make sure to keep our capital!"

"Your Highness Sazastan, you guard the rear for me, and I will give you 3000 people to guard the city of Bolchi."

"After chasing here, I will never accept nothing. Tomorrow morning at four o'clock, the whole army will prepare meals, and before sunrise, I will rush to the Sava River ferry!" Ladislaus no longer pursued a perfect investigation, but Push the chips out. "I believe that my fleet can provide effective intelligence support, and we will definitely hit the fleeing enemy hard."

.........................

Although it was a bit late, Ibrahim's troops could not set up camp yet. Today was a critical day after infiltrating the Austrian logistics line, and they had to march overnight.

"Ibrahim Pasha, the officer sent to monitor Zarkina's four hundred Crimean cavalry was thrown back in a leather bag."

"Is his life in danger?" Ibrahim seemed unconcerned by the loss of a strand of Tatar.

"No, he and a few of his subordinates are basically just hungry." Compared with the Tatars who killed the Ottoman officers, this is quite polite.

"Those damned Crimean cavalry, without our help, they can come to the Danube to rob?! When they were really about to be used, they ran away without a trace, and even Hanes had no news." A person in charge of contacting the servant army The Ottoman officer roared angrily.

"Henis-Zarjin? The guy who claimed that his mother was a descendant of Genghis Khan also ran away?" Another Ottoman officer shouted in disbelief. "It's impossible. I fought with him. We killed twenty Hungarians together. That's not a coward!"

"They may not be cowards, but they are not the most loyal and bravest Ottoman soldiers, Muhammad, don't ask them by our standards, it is too high for them, don't forget that they only rely on bragging about their ancestors. Heroic nomads, while we and our ancestors are heroes, we are Ottoman Turks!"

Although many Crimean Tatars and Zaporozhye Cossacks did not hesitate to break their promises to the Sudan after discovering that the main force continued to retreat, Ibrahim didn't care much. As long as the Ottoman cavalry still has cohesion, it will be fine.

Moreover, his view of the Mongol Empire is not a scientific historical attitude, but it does play an inspiring role.

"Yes, Ibrahim Pasha, yes, they only brag about their ancestors, but we prove that we are the good sons of our ancestors!"

"Yes!"

Although theoretically this kind of infiltration battle should keep the whole army quiet, Ibrahim did not restrain his subordinates too severely. This is a suicidal task, and there is no way to exert too much pressure.

Ibrahim Pasha did not intend to use cavalry to start a battle with the Austrian army. His goal was to infiltrate the elite Sipahi cavalry behind the Austrian army's front.

Ibrahim had already considered the surrender of the servant cavalry for a long time. He originally wanted to pass the message to Ladislaus that his own situation was very bad through those surrenderers.

After being affected by this, Ladislaus is likely to make a misjudgment and underestimate the threat of the Ottoman cavalry. Ibrahim will let Ladislaus know that even if there are only two thousand elite Turks, he It can also mess up Austrian logistics.

As long as the Austrian army's logistics line is cut off for one or two days, Ladislaus will not dare to rush straight to the Sava River.

What's more, even if there is some intelligence about defectors, Ibrahim is still sure that the enemy will conduct a full investigation first to ensure the position of his main force before launching an attack, which can delay for half a day.

"But don't relax too much. The Austrian army will definitely leave Bolchi tomorrow. Try to control the Romanians and Bulgarians. Even if they escape the search of the Austrian army, they can cause a lot of damage. .”

The Ottoman officers responded one after another, but they didn't think so in their hearts. In their view, they were the only troops that could play a key role.
