Chapter 209: Catching Machiavelli alive
At this time, in the city of Florence, there was a chaos, and the fierce shouting of the East Gate was so harsh in the middle of the night. As a result, the entire city of Florence was alarmed.
Seeing many citizens of Florence running out, Stade's heart tightened. Because, he remembered that **** night in Emden City. On that night, the citizens of Emden City went to fight with Marin's army one after another. Many people who died still went forward bravely, causing Marin a lot of trouble. If it were not for an absolute advantage in the military, there could be big problems.
Right now, Stadt ’s army is only two thousand more than the mercenaries in Florence. The force is not too much. If you meet a group of fanatical and desperate citizens ... it is worse ...
However, to Stade's surprise, the citizens of Florence are coming out a lot, but most of them are watching the lively. Although they saw Stade ’s army holding the flag of the Papal State, their eyes were full of indignation, but they did not dare to stand up and work hard.
This is also the difference between the Germans and the Italians. The Germans are still martial, and if you don't look good, you pick up the weapon and do it with you. Italians prefer mouth guns. Those Italian citizens who are angry and resentful can't wait to rush up and debate with Stade for 300 rounds ...
Unfortunately, this group of soldiers are all Germans and do not understand Italian ...
Of course, Stade ’s army has a clear goal and strict discipline, which is also an important reason why the citizens of Florence did not resist. Under the guidance of the leading party sent by the Medici family, Stade's army first attacked the mercenary camp and three gates of Florence. At the same time, part of the soldiers and horses were separated to capture the top of the Republic.
You know, although the Republic of Florence is big, the core high-level people are all in the city of Florence, and they live together. So, Stad sent 800 people, blocked all exits in the residence area of the dignitaries, and waited for the end of the battle between the military camp and the city gate to rush in to get people.
Stade divided the main force into two, and he personally led 4,000 soldiers to the mercenary camp in the city. Another 1,200 people went to seize the other three gates in case someone ran away.
The progress of the four-way soldiers and horses is very smooth, although the mercenaries in the camp have bravely resisted. However, only two thousand people were missing in the camp. Those mercenaries who went out to pick up girls, at a glance at the danger, simply changed their clothes, dressed as passers-by, and no longer showed up. In this way, only less than two thousand people in the big camp are fighting against the 4,000 veterans of Stade, the ending is destined ...
When Stade broke through the mercenary battalion and captured the Italian mercenary leader, good news came in other directions.
The 800 people who controlled the power district successfully blocked all exits of the power district and blocked the high-rise of the Republic trying to escape. To control the other three city gate units, South Gate and West Gate have already succeeded. There is only the North Gate. It seems that some Italian mercenaries are trying to escape from the North Gate. They happened to have a fierce battle with the 400 people who took the North Gate. They froze there for a while.
Stade quickly dispatched the elite and rushed to the north gate to destroy and capture the group of Italian mercenaries who tried to seize the city gate.
Just when Stade thought that the overall situation had been decided, there was a problem with the power district ...
It turned out that many civilians in the power district were stirred up by a high-level republic and clashed with the army that blocked the streets ...
Stade quickly led the army and rushed over, and saw a group of Florentine citizens, holding choppers and wooden sticks, shouting "for the Republic!" "Fight with them!" And other slogans, and the soldiers who blocked the block Confrontation.
Before Stade came over, the soldiers guarding the block had already repelled a wave of citizens' shock.
At this time, there was a loud voice behind the citizens suddenly:
"Citizens, we built the Republic for freedom and cooking. Now, the evil Papal Army wants to take away our power and turn us into slaves again, are you willing to do so?"
"Not reconciled!"
"Not reconciled!"
"We want to be free!"
In the streets, those agitated citizens raised their kitchen knives and wooden sticks and shouted their arms ...
At this time, the sky was already bright, and Stade felt that it was definitely a big fish that incited the people to resist. So he asked for an Italian translation provided by the Medici family and asked:
"Who is the guy who incited the people, can you recognize it?"
The Medici family's translator, who brushed the middle of the head, paused for a while and said:
"It seems like State Secretary Machiavelli ..."
"Who?"
"Machiavelli, Secretary of State, Chief of the Second State Department, responsible for diplomacy and military ..."
"I wiped it, I almost forgot the big thing!" Stade patted his head, and suddenly remembered, Marin asked him to tie a man named Machiavelli in Florence to East Friesland. Moreover, the requirement is Machiavelli intact. At the same time, Marin requested that this person and his family must be treated kindly.
Obviously, his boss Marin fell in love with this man named Machiavelli. It was like Kahn followed Marin and brought back an old Italian named Da Vinci. Now, the old man is very spoiled ...
Thinking of this, Stad said loudly:
"All the soldiers listen to the order and find out the guy who spoke, but don't hurt him!"
"Yes!" The soldiers shouted together, instantly suppressing the momentum of the rebellious citizens.
Then, thousands of soldiers launched an attack on the rebellious citizens. However, the purpose is to break up the opponent, not to kill.
When the regular army got serious, the citizens who held choppers and sticks were obviously not opponents. As a result, the citizen team was quickly dispersed.
However, when the soldiers dispersed the citizens' resistance, they did not see the man named Machiavelli ...
"It's okay, let's go to his house and look for it." At this time, the lead party stood up again, expressing their willingness to lead the army to Machiavelli's house to get people.
Machiavelli did run home. Before, he encouraged the citizens to resist. In fact, he also made the last effort. However, he saw that the opposing army was too powerful. Moreover, from their conversations, you can hear that the other party is in German. Because he served as a diplomat for the Republic of Florence for several years, not only can understand German, but also speak. Obviously, it was a group of German mercenaries, not that the citizens of Florence could resist. So, when Stad ordered an attack, he secretly ran home ...
However, just when he instructed his family to clean up and plan to change the clothing of the aristocracy and pretend to be a civilian to mix with the civilians, Stade had already led Machiavelli under the guidance of the Medici Leading Party Family.
Machiavelli's home was obviously not a fortress, and the soldiers brutally smashed the gate with big stones, and then studded into Stade. The two bodyguards that Machiavelli officially arranged for Machiavelli were scared and stupid. They did not dare to resist at all.
Then, Stade saw Machiavelli carrying his luggage with his parents and wife ...
At this time, Machiavelli had already replaced the aristocratic clothing, and the appearance of a civilian dress. Obviously, this product was intended to be mixed into the civilian area first ...
Stade called in a separate interpreter at Zhongzhong and pointed to Machiavelli and asked:
"is it him?"
The mid-headed translator looked at it and nodded:
"Yes, it's him!"
Stad nodded in satisfaction, suddenly remembering the famous plot that Kahn had told him to "take Da Vinci away". So he turned back to his several guards and ordered:
"Take the goods out and get rid of them!"
"Ah?" Several guards looked at each other. They also knew the story of Kahn's "beating away" Da Vinci. However, they are not familiar with the business of knocking people out ...
"Excuting an order!"
"Yes!"
Several guards gritted their teeth and came to Machiavelli, who was horrified, and pressed Machiavelli. Then, according to Kahn's legend, the armor hit a Machiavelli's back neck ...
"Oh--" Machiavelli did not pass out, but cried out in pain.
"Why don't you squeeze? Second child, you come ..."
Then, the guy called the second child is a hand knife ...
Machiavelli cried again, but didn't faint ...
"Hey! You guys, it's so hard to stun a person? I think Kahn is so easy ..."
Machiavelli also understands German. It turned out that this group of guys beat themselves in the back of the neck to make them faint ... Could it be that the other party has the habit of knocking people away?
When the third bodyguard extended his sinful hand, Machiavelli, who was frightened and did not believe the "professional level" of the bodyguards, said quickly:
"Don't fight ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ I faint!" Then, Machiavelli screamed inexplicably, his head tilted, as if he really fainted ...
Several guards were stunned-hey, we haven't done it yet, why the goods are dizzy ... but hey, just tie it up and say ...
After tying up the hazy Machiavelli, a bodyguard asked:
"What about this guy's family?"
Stade hadn't spoken yet, but Machiavelli "woke up" from the pretense, begging in less skilled German:
"Don't hurt my family, especially my wife!" Obviously, Machiavelli was afraid that the gang of soldiers in front of him would give his beautiful young wife.
"Relax, don't treat your family badly," Stad assured. Stade is already sure that this product will become his colleague in the future, how can he bully his family?
"Then I'm relieved!" Then, Machiavelli passed out again, as if he hadn't spoken just now ... The performance, without giving a golden horse award, a golden image award, can also get a golden donkey award ... …
