Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Vol 5 Chapter 104: Great Siege (17)

Zeppes never imagined that he had given up a huge sacrifice to find the truth for his father's death in order to take care of the overall situation. In return, he was in trouble for Dembwica and himself.

The left side of the Ottomans was obviously more fortunate than their right. Under the influence of no terrain restrictions and no transport fleet that had to be protected and coped with, the left Ottoman army fully developed their special skills, especially It was those Anatolian cavalrymen, whose rapid speed and power during the rapid penetration and tail chasing intercepted the Wallachia who had been trying to get rid of them.

Buklcany was lost in the middle of the night on the 20th, or it was more appropriate for the army defending Buklcany to voluntarily give up the fortress, but it is no longer necessary to investigate how the fort was lost at this time. After the Ottomans broke into Buklcany, they quickly destroyed the fortress without any stay. They clearly understood what was most important to them, so the first thing the Ottomans ignited The granaries in the Bukrcani fortress.

At night, the scene of the red fire rushing up into the sky can be seen very far. The striking light like a torch is very difficult to even pay attention to.

Zepez, who was moving closer to Dembrica, saw the fire, and the defenders on the wall of Dembrica even further saw the scene that shocked them.

The Dembricas were completely stunned. They never expected that Bulkirani would fall so quickly, that there were rumors in the city for a time, and many people were discussing that Bulkrani was betrayed.

So who exactly betrayed Bulkellani?

Soon, a story that did not know where it appeared began to spread throughout the city.

Wallacea Duke Cepes was the culprit of this conspiracy, and the reason he would do it was purely to avenge his father Vlad III!

Zepes did n’t know that he was somehow betraying the conspiracy of the betrayal of the country and his compatriots. As the freshly released Wallachia No. 1 "Vagrant", he still took his army to try to get rid of The Ottoman siege, struggling to move closer to the city of Dembrica.

Cepes knew that his situation was very dangerous at this time. The fall of Buklcany not only caused Dembovica to lose his important granary, but also completely cut off his back path. Unless he crosses the river east, he is on the west bank of the river He has no escape route.

Even if you want to cross the river, the only way to use the ferry boat is only a bridge across the river in the city of Dembrica, and crossing the river under the pursuit of the Ottomans will make you feel crazy.

So even if it was to be safe from the Ottoman siege, he must arrive in Dembrica as soon as possible.

Zepes ’s previous strategy to seduce the enemy was still very useful. The huge sacrifice of the unit led by Moore gave him valuable time. When the Ottomans finally found out that when redeploying them again and again to contain them, Zepes It is already very close to Demwica.

Zeppes believed that he would be greeted by a savior, and even the Dembwica people would welcome him by welcoming the monarch. This conjecture made him think that everything before was worth it.

Vlad III has been fighting for his identity as the orthodox ruler of the Principality of Wallachia until his death, and now his son can walk in righteously as the Grand Duke of Wallachia has an extraordinary significance for the entire Balkans In Dembwica, Cepes believes that this is enough to make Vlad III happy even in hell.

Vlad III was so brutal, and even Cepes, as his son, did not believe that his father could enter heaven after his death. However, this was before. Zepez firmly believed that after this rescue of Dembwica, his father ’s reputation You will get the respect you deserve.

Zeppes imagined a lot, or it was very good, but reality gave him a vivid and profound lesson.

In the early morning of the 21st, the Wallachian army of Cepes finally arrived under the city of Demwica.

There is nothing special about this small city whose walls are not tall. Although looking a little higher outside from the city, you can see the spire of the church where the Saint Cyril brothers are said to be buried, but Except for its special historical status, this small city itself has few attractive places.

But despite this, the Ottomans failed to successfully capture this humble city.

From April 15th to 20th, Dembuica has been attacked several times in a row for nearly six days, but the city has persevered.

The reason why more than 2,000 people in the entire urban area can block Ottoman's attack is that the city has fierce firepower that even Bucharest must be jealous of.

Almost a large part of the artillery of the entire Bucharest area was gathered in Denbuvica!

This makes the walls of the city look like a hedgehog covered with sharp barbs from a distance, and if it is slightly offended, it will be brutally hurt by those horrible barbs.

Although the time on the road was delayed, Cepes was not very worried about the safety of Dembuica, because he knew that Dembuica ’s defense was not so easy to break, except that the residents of the city had The firm belief in defending the Holy Land is that he knew that Dembwica had a formidable defensive firepower.

There are so many artillery pieces in the city of Dembrica, which is a big reason for his father Vlad III.

At the beginning, Vlad III fled to Dumblevica after being ousted from the throne of the Grand Duke within a few months after he succeeded to the throne, and then secretly joined the "Dragon Knights" staying here.

After vowing to protect this Balkan shrine for his life's mission, Vlad III received strong support from the Knights.

In return for the help of the Knights in his recapture of the Grand Duke, Vlad III generously sponsored the Order of the Dragon Knights after the restoration, and in order to support a church that had a huge influence in the local area, Vlad III did not hesitate Spend a lot of money to re-arm his past partners.

Vlad III has great ambitions, and he intends to semi-openly support the elders of the Dragon Knights to become his agent in Dembuica, so that not only can his rule in Wallachia be stabilized, and it may even be expected after a long time. Undercover influences such as Bosnia, Croatia, and even further away from Cagnola or Bulgaria and Moldova.

Vlad III ’s plan was good, but unfortunately his luck was not good, so when he just started his seemingly ambitious plan, the expedition of Muhammad II first ruined his calculations, and then he was inexplicable Died under the city of Bucharest, and even his head was cut off as a gift to the Ottomans.

However, what Vlad III did for the city during his lifetime in order to borrow the prestige of Dembrica did not disappear with his death. On the contrary, after the war, people soon discovered that someone paid a lot of money to put those in the war. The artillery that made a great contribution to neutrality was bought and shipped to Dembuica. With the continuous purchase of weapons purchased in the name of defending the Holy Land from infringement, this original Balkan shrine has been known for some time. He became a heavily guarded military fortress.

Zeppes knew about this, and even after he inherited the Grand Duke's throne, he had a headache for his bad financial situation because he found that the large sums of money were removed and used in the name of his father long ago. The result was that all the money was used to buy the cannons that were now placed on the head of Dembrica and looked terrifying.

Of course, if the strength of the Principality of Wallachia alone is not enough to bear such huge expenditures, but when this is mixed with a sect that also has a complex and huge source of wealth, the strength of Dembrica is really not tolerated. Underestimated.

Zeppes did not believe that this did not attract the attention of others in recent years. For example, the Patriarch of Bucharest could not be easily deceived, but the head of the patriarch seems to have secretly acquiesced in this kind of church Behavior, which convinced Zeppes that when his father was alive, he should have had some kind of tacit agreement with the patriarch, or at least with the deacon elders of Bucharest Cathedral.

This is also the main reason why Zeppes insisted on coming to solve the encirclement of Dembrica.

He hopes that he can become his father's true heir, whether it is his status or his plan, he hopes that as the Grand Duke of Wallachia, his family will be glorious from Dembwica.

Zepes was ambitiously heading towards Dembrica, but what made him unexpected was that it was not flowers and praise that waited for him under the city of Dembrica, nor the cheers of the allegiance of knights and the screams of worship of the girls Instead, a round of violent shelling followed by a frantic scream.

And in the hustle and bustle that almost can't hear what is screaming, it took a long time for Zeppes to hear the "traitor", "treacherous", "national thief" and "Vlad's cub". Furious content.

But without waiting for Zepez to get entangled with those who swear at the city wall, the Ottoman army had already followed, and this time Zepez was keenly aware of the danger.

He immediately gave up continuing to curse each other with the Dembricas and led the army northward along the outskirts of the city. He guessed that the Ottomans were unlikely to continue to advance northward, which would at least make it all the way to get rid of the enemy ’s interception. Exhausted, he gasped.

Zeppes ’s judgment was right. The Ottomans spent most of the day following him after chasing nearly a dozen fares and finally stopped chasing. Although he had to endure and throw away almost the big Part of the load, and even several infantry units that were apparently about to collapse, had to order another way out, but he finally got rid of the Ottoman pursuit.

It was only when he finally stopped that Zepez found out that he was now not only away from Dembrica, but also completely lost contact with Bucharest, and the consequence of losing his weight was that his army was very good in the following days. May be hungry.

Cepes is not worried about eating. This season's Balkans are not very difficult to find food, but the loss of a lot of weight makes him feel the situation is serious.

His purpose was to free Dembowica, so many of the weights he carried were for defensive tools, and those things fell into the hands of the Ottomans, which was obviously very bad, not to mention that he did not forget that the Dembricas treated him. Screamed, once those weights appeared in the Ottoman army, this obviously became one of the evidences of his collusion with pagans.

More importantly, he was worried that some inexplicable rumors would be used by some people in Bucharest. If so, he would really have no way out.

Zepes was secretly focused, he did n’t know who was hurting him, or who wanted him to die. This rumor at this time was enough to put him in desperation, as can be seen from the army that followed him. .

The troops that he ordered to disperse and rid himself of chasing, in fact, Cepes already suspected that they had alienated them, which made him smell dangerous. No matter what ideas those people had, he decided to take action immediately.

Since they could not be resolved by force, they were sent far away, and the army's willingness to leave left Zepez's already tense heart secretly relaxed.

But what to do next, continue to go north?

The idea was tossed aside by Zeppes with only a flash.

Returning to his hometown of Transylvania is a great temptation. As long as he returns there, he has the confidence to become the ruler there again, and then he believes that he will not be much worse than Roy? Sudan has been entangled with Bucharest on the condition side.

But Cepes also knew that if that were the case, he would always be the ruler of Transylvania.

Cepes is not reconciled!

He is the Grand Duke of Wallachia, which makes him not only own the vast territory including Transylvania, but also the nominal monarch of Bucharest, but now he has become a guarded and abandoned in Bucharest People, this is absolutely unacceptable to him.

But what should I do to prove my loyalty by going back to the Ottomans?

Zeppes immediately rejected this idea. He was not the young man who was boiling blood. He knew that it might be possible to wash away the suspicions of him with blood, but sacrifice of his life did not have any practical benefits for himself.

"Sir, where are we going?" One of the men asked anxiously, and then whispered to remind Cepes that the soldiers seemed to be a little emotionally unstable.

Cepes looked back at his army, and at this time he couldn't help secretly anxious.

They have run too far, because some soldiers have been going north, some soldiers really misunderstood that this may be to go home, so the team quickly filled with agitation.

This made Zepez's men secretly uneasy. They knew that once this emotion spread, it might lead to very bad results, especially when this kind of always seems to be running away, it is more likely to cause commotion.

"Where to go." This simple question made Zeppes not know how to answer for a while. He jumped off the horse and walked to a tree to sit down, marking a meaningless track with the whip in his hand. At the same time, I couldn't help thinking about this difficult problem.

It is impossible to go to Dembrica. Neither the Dembrica nor the Ottomans will allow him to get there.

Returning to Bucharest, this seems to be the only option, but Cepes knows that all he has to wait for is all kinds of doubts and even terrible accusations.

And he never returned to his hometown of Transylvania.

Zepes vaguely heard the whispers of soldiers in the distance. Although he was much kinder than his father, the severe rule still made his men fear him, but this fear is not endless, just like people. He was more afraid of his father, but he was still murdered.

Cepes knew he had to find a clear destination as soon as possible, otherwise the army would be in danger of collapse or even mutiny because there was no way out.

This is not impossible, and even the Ottoman army, known for its discipline, is not without soldiers mutiny.

It was the Gombré, who did n’t know how he came to Wallachia from so far, and how to maintain the morale of his army.

Zepes flashed the thought casually in his heart, and then his hand on the ground suddenly stopped.

Gumbre, the army of Montina, the south of Bucharest, and the Ottoman army that might launch an attack from the lower reaches of the Demwica river!

This series of thoughts quickly flashed through Zeppes's mind, and these thoughts quickly formed a simple but complete plan.

"Order troops to prepare for departure!"

Cepes suddenly stood up and ordered the men who were anxiously waiting around him. Seeing that the officers showed their expectations and inquiries, Zepes gave a firm order: "Looking for the ferry and the boat, we cross the river to Dembwe Go to the east bank of the Cha River. "

Zepez's order surprised his men, and some people simply raised questions.

Faced with these questions, Zepes gave them the answer simply: "We will go down the east bank of the river to the downstream, I believe that this Count Montina's life must be very difficult, so he will be very happy to see us . "

Cepes ’plan gave the Wallachia who seemed to be helpless at first all of a sudden, especially when the Earl of Montina, who heard the Grand Duke said, might be in need now, many Wallachia People even mocked a few words about the Roman army's foreign powers ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ The soldiers who became excited from frustration did not notice the flash of worry in Cepes' eyes.

"I hope that Gombre can persevere for a while, and don't wait for me to collect his body when he arrives." Zeppes prayed secretly in his heart, and then he ordered the troops to "depart, cross the river to the east bank!"

Bukrcany fell, Zepez ’s army disappeared near Dembuica, the series of bad news sent Bucharest into a panic, and the next bad news that surprised them greatly exacerbated the panic in the city. .

At noon on April 21st, after nearly a day and a night of perseverance, the swampy defense of the left wing of the Montina army was finally broken, and the Montina army was forced to retreat!

On the same day, under the loss of continuous artillery attacks from the Pletvi fortress, the Ottoman downstream fleet finally crossed the section of the river that they regarded as the place of death. The defenders in the Pletvi fortress saw the general trend has gone Abandon the castle and flee.

At this point, the battle of Bucharest planned by Sultan Bayezite was initially completed!
