The Eagle of Eastern Europe
Chapter 50 Jianqingbiye, intimidation, night attack
Jianqing's wild tactics were effective. The distance between the two places was less than 200 kilometers, and there was nothing to eat along the way, except pigs.
Suleiman looked at the group of big pigs and little pigs and felt so angry. This is not a clear sign, this is an insult to them.
He changed his mind, he wanted to tear that little brat apart. I believe Allah will also approve of it.
Suleiman ordered the army to advance quickly, but their supplies could not keep up. People took all the food with them before leaving, and what they carried was quickly eaten.
They began a thirsty march, and the lack of water and food exhausted the Ottoman army. Suleiman Pasha's impatience confirmed that he could not wait for supplies to come up.
After seven days of marching, the morale of the Ottoman army was already very low. He was covered in filth, and his stomach only contained some animal feed, but no meat at all.
Who would have thought that the other party had made it so clean, and there was nothing to eat along the way. Finally, they found a warehouse that had not finished carrying food. The things inside were poisoned, and more than twenty people were directly poisoned.
But fortunately, they were already on their way to Varna. (Try traveling 200 kilometers without food or drink)
Suleiman Pasha decided to send an envoy to Varna to make them surrender to the Ottomans. Who said that the army now needed to be repaired.
So an envoy from Suleiman came to Varna in advance.
"I have come to see your commander by order of Suleiman Pasha."
The gates of Varna were opened, and the envoy was introduced to Peter.
At this time Peter was reading a book, brought from Prague by the Chamber of Commerce. A man named Wycliffe wrote the "Summa Theologiae", and Peter happened to take a look at the views of this patriarch.
When the special envoy entered the inspection circle, he said to the people next to him.
"Where is your commander?"
"In front of you." Someone else said, pointing at Peter.
The envoy did not expect that their commander was actually a child, and he felt cheated.
"I demand an interview with your real commander."
"If you want to say that I am the one with real power, then I am." Peter put down the book and looked at the envoy.
The envoy was surprised. He did not expect that a little cub was the supreme ruler of Varna. But he still signaled to Peter and began to tell Suleiman's request.
"The great Ottoman army is coming here and Suleiman Pasha wants Varna to come and reward the army."
Peter thought for a moment, and then looked at the other person with a smile. The envoy was a little panicked, because he actually saw his own death date in the lord's eyes.
"I don't know why the pasha asked us to prepare. Besides, isn't it just to annex Varna at this time?"
"This is an opportunity to form an alliance with the most powerful empire in the world, and I hope you will take advantage of it."
"Then I can't help it."
Peter choked back. "You trampled on our homeland, massacred God's people, and seized their property and land. Now you have the nerve to come here and ask for rewards. I have to say that you are really confident."
Seeing that the other party was so ignorant, the special envoy could only issue an ultimatum.
"Lord, if you don't want to watch the beautiful Varna be destroyed by the war, then you'd better do it, otherwise it will be too late for you to regret it."
I thought the other party would obey obediently, but I didn't expect Peter to say so directly.
"Before that, you don't have to worry because you won't see that day."
Subsequently, the envoys were controlled by both sides.
"Execute this arrogant guy with the highest courtesy."
The special envoy was dragged down before he understood what the highest etiquette was, and the people around him understood that the special envoy's death sentence had been sentenced and no one could save him.
After this, Peter addressed everyone in the room.
"You have all seen that these arrogant infidels ask us to open the door and hand over the food we cultivate and harvest. This is unacceptable. Can we live without dignity like this?"
"cannot"
Peter even made his voice louder in the last few words, just to scare some wavering people. At this time, he needed to unite all forces.
Returning to Suleiman's side, the envoy he sent had not returned for a long time, so he personally led the army to shock and awe. Unexpectedly, he saw a scene he had never seen before in his life.
On the road leading to Varna, a pillar stands next to it, and if you look closely, you will see a man passing through it. He has not yet died, but he will not live long.
Suleiman saw at a glance that this was the envoy he sent. He hurried forward to check, and the special envoy said directly with his last strength.
"They...are right here..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of troops appeared around him. Countless arrows and bolides fell, and the Ottoman army, which had not had a good rest, instantly became chaotic.
"Stay in formation, don't mess up!"
Suleiman Pasha gave the order while Varna's light cavalry began to harvest the lives of some of the Ottoman soldiers. It was a lively exchange between the two parties.
After paying a heavy price, the Ottoman army finally maintained its formation. Then Sipaxi began to fight with the Varna cavalry. Blood, axes, and broken limbs were flying in the sky. Seeing that Osman was preparing to counterattack, the opponent retreated directly. Sipahi wanted to give chase, but Suleiman stopped him.
Suleiman still looked at the dead envoy. The top of the wooden pillar was sharpened. He was inserted from the top and then dropped according to his own gravity until he lost his life.
Such a way of death has never been seen in Europe and the Islamic world, and the envoy's words before his death were even more shocking to him. But he finally calmed down.
"Send the order to camp on the spot and bury him."
At this time, Suleiman was less than 20 kilometers away from Varna. Now that he was short of men and horses, he could only postpone the siege plan and make repairs first. At the same time, people were sent to Edirne to request reinforcements and supplies.
Peter looked at the Ottoman camp that was gradually getting quieter, with uncontrollable joy on his face. With a wave of his hand, all the bows and arrows were ignited and fired into the Ottoman camp.
Eight light artillery pieces also fired at the opponent, and their fragile defenses were directly torn apart by the shells. This was undoubtedly another burden on the shoulders of the Ottoman soldiers who suffered great pressure during the march and had just fought a battle.
"Pasha, no, our camp was attacked."
Suleiman Pasha, who had just fallen asleep, was still confused when he was woken up, but he soon realized something and quickly put on his armor and formed a formation.
Dobroga's cavalry troops, shouting for glory, rushed towards the Ottoman soldiers, who fell into the arms of Allah before they were ready. They are like lawnmowers, ruthlessly harvesting each other's lives and unable to stop them.
