In any case, Sultan Gary Gur survived. However, considering that his left arm was poisoned by lead poisoning, Marin thought about it and decided to send people to fly pigeons to pass the book, go to Italy to transfer, notify Egypt, send alcohol extracted from spirits, and teach Egyptian court doctors to use boiling water Cook the gauze to avoid infection and death after amputation.
Know that this era of medicine is extremely backward and does not pay attention to disinfection at all. Even if Gary Gourgui is Sudan, the possibility of infection after amputation is extremely high. Once infected, nine lives.
So, Marin hurriedly let people release the pigeons to notify the spies on the Italian side, and then the Italian side used the pigeons to notify the spies on the Egyptian side, so as to prevent the accidental infection of the Sultan of Caligur during the amputation.
But two days later, the reply from Egypt had not been sent back, but there was another bad news-Turkish Sultan Selim I, deliberately put back the captured 20,000 Mamluk cavalry ...
Originally, after the defeat of more than 50,000 Mamluk cavalry, Gary Gur took the remaining 40,000 cavalry to escape. The 20,000 cavalry of Mamluk feudal lords were deliberately abandoned by Gary Gul.
After being abandoned, the cavalry of 20,000 feudal lords were also very unruly and surrendered to the Turks with little resistance. Originally, Selim I intended to detain these people. However, the minister familiar with the internal situation of the Mamluk dynasty suggested that he let go of these cavalry belonging to the feudal lord of Mamluk ...
Because only the cavalry of the headquarters were brought back when they could not escape, even though the national power was damaged, the rule of Caligul could become more stable in the future. Because no one has challenged his strength.
If enough time is given to Sultan Gary Gur, he may be able to clean up the opposition in the country and complete the true reunification of the Mamluk dynasty. By then, the strength of the Mamluk dynasty will not necessarily be very poor.
However, Selim I broke Gary Gour's wishful thinking ...
After the return of 20,000 Mamluk cavalry under the feudal lord, not only did Caligor's strength prevail, but the wind fell.
Of course, because these cavalry belong to multiple feudal lords, therefore, these feudal lords can not form an advantage to Gary Gul. However, Gary Gul could not suppress the feudal lords ...
That is to say, from then on, the Egyptian Mamluk dynasty will be in a chaotic period of internal power struggle for a long time, it is difficult to form a threat to Turkey. Then, Turkey can free up its hands to deal with Persia ...
"This is really bad news!" Marin rubbed his temples and felt a headache.
Originally, Marin also planned to suppress the rising momentum of Turkey through the cooperation of Persia and Egypt. But now, the Egyptians have collapsed. Although not destroyed, but also lost half of his life.
As for Persia, although the last war was not seriously hurt, but it lost its strength ...
What is aura? Aura is morale! Before the war with Turkey, the Persians were proud, just like their Shah Ismail I. The morale of the Persian army is very high because they have never suffered defeat. In the face of the enemy, the Persian army maintained strong self-confidence and morale. Even if your strength is not as good as your opponent, you can defeat your opponent!
Just like in the early Tang Dynasty, Tang Jun built up a very strong self-confidence after eliminating the Turks, which led Xi Junmai to dare to use 20 horses to break the enemy's million people ...
Did Xi Jun buy it and hang it? Or did he use one of his 20 cavalrymen for a hundred? None, but because Tang Jun was unfavorable in the various battles of the early Tang Dynasty, the generals of Tang Jun became extremely confident. Their opponent, however, was photographed by the reputation of Tang Jun, and was naturally a little afraid. Therefore, it led to the amazing deeds of Xi Jun buying 20 riders and breaking the enemy.
Similarly, after the last war between Turkey and Persia, although the Persian strength was not greatly lost, the confidence of the Persian army was severely hit. After that war, the Persian army, including their monarch Ismail I, no longer believed that he was "invincible."
On the contrary, Turkey's two decisive battles with Persia and Egypt have built the same strong self-confidence as the early Tang army. It can be said that in the future when the Turkish army and the Persian army meet, the Persian may not even dare to take the initiative to attack. Unless, your own advantage is great. Otherwise, it will only take a defensive ...
This is war! Once a country's army has suffered a fiasco or victory, it will have a great impact on the morale of the army!
War is never a comparison of digital strength! Only those unscrupulous arms dealers will exaggerate the role of weapons and equipment unilaterally. In fact, weapons and equipment cannot determine success or failure! Just like the late Qing eight coalition forces invaded China, opened the fleeing Qing army arsenal and found that the Qing army's weapons were very advanced ...
However, because of repeated defeats over the past few decades, as well as serious problems with the Qing ’s discipline and training, the machine guns and the Krupp artillery were given to them, but they could not beat the mixed army of the eight-nation coalition.
Not to mention war, even football. Because they often lost to the South Korean team, the subsequent national football team suffered from some inexplicable "Fear of Korea". Once on the court, facing the South Korean team, naturally lost morale and confidence, where can I win?
Therefore, despite the Persian national power is still there, Egypt has not collapsed, but these two countries, the threat to Turkey is not great. This is because Turkey has already played out its confidence, and its combat power can be exerted beyond normal. Egypt and Persia have long lost confidence. If you meet the Turks again, the war will be a problem.
If Egypt did not lose this battle, the two countries could join forces and perhaps still make a comeback. But in this war, Egypt was defeated too badly. Sultan Gary Gul and his allies lost more than half of the 30,000 Mamluk cavalry, but the opposition of Gary Gul did not suffer much. . In the future, it will be difficult for Egypt to threaten Turkey ...
Uh ...
However, Marin did not expect Egypt to overturn Turkey. What Marin asked was that the Turks did not go south to control Jerusalem and Egypt.
It goes without saying that Jerusalem is a holy city shared by Christianity and Green religion. If Turkey wins this city, I am afraid that morale and prestige will burst. On the European side, it will be greatly affected. After all, the Holy City was won by the Turks, and European sentiment will also be affected. With this trade-off, the Turks will be more arrogant.
In addition, this place in Egypt is also very important. If Turkey wins here, it will not only cause a heavy blow to Venice, but also make Spain and Portugal more invincible. Venice, an important piece that Marin used to contain Spain, cannot be destroyed by Turkey.
In addition, with Egypt, a granary that is more important than Syria, Turkey wants violent soldiers in the future, just like playing. After all, the agricultural areas of the Nile River Basin are not covered ...
It was originally in history that Turkey had possessed a strong ability of violent soldiers only after annexing Egypt ...
Before annexing Egypt, Turkey sent troops to fight and could only mobilize a large army of 60,000 to 0,000 people. However, after annexing Turkey, and then attacking Europe, it immediately dispatched two or three hundred thousand troops ...
According to the information, the population of Turkey is about 0 million people, including millions of Slavs on the Balkan Peninsula.
But the Slavs on the Balkans could not provide Turkey with a large number of cavalry, only Turkey could provide 10,000 or 20,000 infantry, including musketeers and artillery. Although the importance of these European infantry in the war is very high, the number is not very large.
At this time, the Mamluk dynasty, according to the spy lurking in Cairo, knew that the entire Mamluk dynasty had a population of less than 5 million.
Among them, there are 3 million people in Egypt, the most. The second largest is Syria, with 200,000 people. Then, there are less than 300,000 people in the Lebanese region, less than 200,000 people in the mountains of Jordan, more than 100,000 people in the Palestinian region, and many people in the Libya and Hanzhi regions.
But now, the Syrian area has basically fallen into the hands of Turkey. Most of the Lebanese region also fell into the hands of Turkey, leaving only the southern mountainous area under Mamluk dynasty control.
That is to say, the Turks have a population of 1.4 million people at once ~ www.novelhall.com ~ For the 6th century, when population is productivity, it is definitely a substantial increase in national strength.
Moreover, Arabs are different from Slavic farmers in the Balkans. There are many Arab nomads, and many nomads are soldiers who mount horses and pick up scimitars. Therefore, not to mention that most of Syria and Lebanon brought Turkey a population of only 1.4 million, and the possible source of troops was more powerful than the millions of Slavs in the Balkans ...
For example, in the Syrian region, during the previous battle of the Dabik steppe, 20,000 servants were provided to the Mamluk dynasty. Now, these people have returned to Turkey ...
Under this trade-off, Turkey naturally greatly enhanced. The Egyptian Mamluk dynasty lost nearly a third of its population, and Syria, a cash cow with developed agriculture and commerce.
Plus Selim I also put the captive Mamluk feudal lord cavalry back in a very sinister manner. Afterwards, there must be a lot of trouble inside Egypt. Not to mention being able to fight against Turkey, and being able to hold on to the current territory is a big problem ...
"It seems that I must reach out!" Marin thought for a long time and finally made up his mind ...
