Chapter 182
With the approval of the Grand Duke, Peter can smoothly implement the next plan.In addition to sending legions to monitor, they also hired soldiers to rescue them at their own expense.A total of 2000 Albanian and Serbian soldiers were sent to Thessaloniki to assist the Order.

Theodore has also assembled his army and started heading north.They made rapid progress and soon occupied several villages.Turkic immigrants either fled or became slaves.

Theodore adopted a policy of enslaving all the Turks. Although the number was small, all these immigrant pagans became serfs and a source of foreign exchange.After the Ottoman wars and turmoil, the northern part of Greece has long been dilapidated, the land is barren, and the population is sparsely populated. For this reason, a large number of people are needed to enrich the northern part. Therefore, the serfdom of the Turks has been strengthened, not only losing their freedom, but also losing other things. right.

And the army in Adrian was also dispatched. They expelled some Ottomans to the south and expanded the border with Rome, but Ottoman could only continue to shrink, and finally retreated to Cuplu.

The news of Wallachia's attack spread to Bursa. On the one hand, Ali Pasha told the defenders to hold on, and on the other hand, he quickly sent a message to the Sultan to go back to rescue. As long as the Sultan launches an attack, everything will be fine.

Peter's order to the Wallachian army was to make a quick decision. For this reason, most of the army was composed of light cavalry. They not only captured the land, but also plundered many Turks to enrich the border.Of course, without exception, they are all serfs, and they will never be redeemed.

Wallachia’s attack accelerated the Turkic flight, and a large number of Turkic immigrants crossed the Gallipoli Strait and returned to Anatolia. Only the Turkic people in the permanent settlements on the Gallipoli Peninsula were still holding on.But in the face of Wallachia's army, I'm afraid it won't last long.

Osman is caught in a two-front battle, with difficult players on both sides.Coupled with the instability of the people's hearts in the newly conquered land, this gave the Sudan a headache. He finally realized the feelings of the former Eastern Roman emperor. Once the land of the Four Wars declines, it is just a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

Moreover, the hospital knights of Rhode Island and the king of Cyprus saw the decline of Ottoman, so they formed an army to plunder the coast of Ottoman, and these two places finally made the Sultan fall ill. Murad's father smiled at him, are they going to meet?

"Sudan, something is wrong. Wallachia and Moria in the south are attacking us."

Early in the morning, Bayezid heard the news he didn't want to hear, why Wallachia didn't keep its promise, and sent troops again in less than two years.

"Hey, what's going on here? Why did Wallachia send troops again? Don't they need to recuperate? Who can tell me why?"

Bayezid’s roar almost knocked down the tent, and the generals around him didn’t dare to say a word. They were also puzzled. You said that Wallachia has no foreign aid from the West, no powerful mercenaries, and no large population. Under the premise, why can you defeat the powerful Ottoman twice in a row and seize a lot of land.Could it be that Allah has turned Jesus into the patron saint of Wallachia?
"What is the situation now?", Bayezid asked about the situation in Europe.

"It is not optimistic. The Grand Vizier has ordered the soldiers to guard the castles and asked the Sultan to come back immediately for support."

Bayezid was in hesitation. If he went back to rescue, then the east would definitely take advantage of the gap, and the expansion in the past few years would be reduced to nothing, but if he didn't go back, the territory in Europe would suffer the same fate.

It is nothing more than a matter of trade-offs. If you lose it in Eastern Europe, you will lose it when you go back to the Eastern Region.It depends on how he chooses.

"No, I can't go back now, everything here will be over, it's over."

Bayezid sat on a chair and muttered to himself. The surrounding generals looked at their once invincible sultan, and now he became like this. This made them doubt the sultan. Can he really fight?

"In this way, tell the grand vizier that I gave the places like Thessaloniki and Larissa to the heretics. After I settle here, I will come back and ask them to settle accounts, and I will make them pay back ten times."

Bayezid finally made a decision to withdraw part of the army from Europe, give up part of the land, and temporarily block Wallachia's mouth. Taking this opportunity, Bayezid will try his best to solve the East. It is a great plan.

In fact, it had been ten days since Bayezid got the news, and these ten days were enough for many things to happen, such as Wallachia officially receiving Thessaloniki,

See the Ottoman army did not move.Constantine decided to enter Thessaloniki and suppress Ottoman in Gallipoli.

The army set off without encountering any decent resistance along the way, and it easily reached Thessaloniki. The local people warmly welcomed these heroes who rescued them.

Constantine officially announced that Wallachia had acquired Thessaloniki, and invited Peter to come some other day, so as to demonstrate Wallachia's love for the new land.

Peter didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and he was about to go to this Mediterranean port. If Osman didn't want to win the war, they would not expand the conflict.

The old man's side is also good, most of Greece has already entered his hands, and it is only a matter of time before Larissa falls.I heard that Basilius of Constantinople wrote to him twice, offering to give some land to other members of the family, but Theodore refused. These are all for his daughter, how can they be given to other families What about insects?

Manuel was angry, but there was nothing he could do. He only had Constantinople and the surrounding areas, while Theodore had more than half of the Greek area. No matter how you look at it, his younger brother had the upper hand, so he turned against him If so, tomorrow he should bring soldiers to Luoyang with swords.

No matter it is a war or anything else, it takes time. Binggui's speed and slowness are very suitable for today's situation. When it should be urgent, it should be fast, and when it should be slow, it should be slow.Seize the opportunity, such as this one now, seize every opportunity to expand and farm, and then make it big in the world.

Other parts of Wallachia continue to farm, and in order to obtain more income, the government began to levy other taxes, such as the bee tax levied from last year and the wine tax from next year, both of which are exported by Wallachia. The big head is expected to bring 60 lei in revenue.

The economic and trade center of Western Europe is the Netherlands, and the economic center of Eastern Europe is Wallachia. Venice just has more trade, which is why it cannot compare to Wallachia.
