In the days that followed, it became a drama for French peasants to rush to the city to seek refuge with their "relatives". After laying down their arms, the French soldiers gentlemanly accepted the peasants of southern France, who had been forced to storm the walls.

But once or twice was fine, but after a few times, after several thousand more French peasants in the city, the French felt that something was wrong - Nima, grain and grass!

If one or two thousand French peasants come in, the French may not care. After all, there was enough food piled up in the city. However, this took in six or seven thousand men, and the Spaniards were still driving the French peasants into the city, which was very problematic. Now, even the fools can see that the Spaniards are letting these French peasants share the grain and grass in the city!

What the? You say you can starve these peasants to death without food? Even, these peasants can be killed as military rations?

If it was in ancient China, this might be fine. From the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period onwards, the kings of China stopped talking about morality and were completely shameless. In order to succeed, the Chinese monarchs and generals were unscrupulous. For example, during the Anshi Rebellion of the Tang Dynasty, in order to defend Suiyang and prevent the rebels from going south to the Jianghuai grain-producing area, the guard general Zhang Xun would rather eat human flesh to survive when the grain and grass were exhausted, but also insisted on defending the city. In the end, he used less than 7,000 troops to hold back the 180,000 An Lushan rebels for 10 months, keeping the lifeblood of the Tang Dynasty.

Moreover, because the strategic purpose of preserving the vitality of the Tang Dynasty was achieved, after Zhang Xunzhan died, he was posthumously presented to the governor of the capital and went to Lingyan Pavilion.

Of course, this is Huaxia, only looking at the result, not caring about the process. However, this is not the case in Europe at this time......

Why? Because the King of France and the Emperor of China are two professions. It is not a question of who is honorable, but of the size of power. Don't look at the King of France, he is already the most centralized monarch among the monarchs of all European countries. But compared with Emperor Huaxia, he is still a younger brother.

Even if the French king had deprived the nobles of the autonomy of their own domains, he had only deprived them of the right to support their own troops. Politically, the king of France also had to compromise with the great nobles. The so-called parliament, its predecessor, was just a place for the great nobles to express their opinions, and had nothing to do with the people's cooking.

If Louis XII dared to starve these French peasants to death, he would later be blamed by the great nobles of the parliament, and even robbed him of some of his rights. The reason is simple - kings cannot protect their people...... Although these big nobles are usually not a thing, and there are many fish and common people, if the king catches evidence for them, he will also be fought.

The reason for this is not related to the aristocracy, but to the Catholic concept of "God loves the world". Europe is Christendom, and the king has to be patient with the church. France is already the most fearless power of the Holy See, but it can't mess around. In particular, the international situation has changed, and now France is surrounded by enemies - in the southwest, the two great powers of the Iberian Peninsula, Aragon and Castile, have merged into one and fought against France together; The Habsburgs were also mortal enemies of France because of the territorial problems of Burgundy; Needless to say, England is the enemy of life and death......

Therefore, in the case of not being able to crush the countries, the king of France must also pay attention to the influence and dare not mess around, for fear of being caught by someone and then beaten by the group.

As for killing those peasants as military rations? No kidding, if Louis XII dared to do that, the Pope would have excommunicated him and excommunicated him. And then, he couldn't even be a king. Because, the canon states that nobles should not be loyal to a non-Christian king...... Once excommunicated, Henry IV of HRE was a lesson from the past......

Therefore, the six or seven thousand French peasants who poured into the city became a hot potato. And, Gonzalo. Morality. Córdoba, on the other hand, was still transporting French peasants to storm the walls of Naples......

……

"What to do? Everyone, love Qing, it's like a way! Louis XII said anxiously.

Now he is in a difficult situation, and it is certainly not possible to accept the French peasantry. However, in the face of the persecution of the Spaniards, they did not accept it and could not find an excuse. You can't say - I don't have much food, don't come? This will be severely condemned by public opinion......

Or the former Duke of Gedes found an ideal way:

"Your Majesty, why don't we allow those behind us to climb the city wall on the grounds that 'the enemy is mixed in'?"

Louis XII nodded and said:

"It's a good excuse, but what do we do with the French peasants who rush to the walls? You can't fight each other, right? That would be 'the king ordering the slaughter of his own people.......'"

"Knock them down with shields in both hands, and don't let them go up the walls!" Cha thought for a moment.

Louis XII nodded, thinking that this was all there was to it. So, in the days that followed, the French mobilized a large number of shieldmen, holding shields in both hands, to defend the part where the siege ladder connected to the city wall......

While shouting, "Do not go near the walls of the city if you are any of you", they mercilessly used their shields to knock the onrushing French peasants back or simply fell off the ladder and the wall......

At the same time, the French mobilized a large number of wrestlers and used their tomahawks to slash the ladders and substairs that were erected on the city walls, destroying them and blocking the way for the French peasants to rush up the walls.

Gonzalo. Morality. Seeing this, Córdoba pondered for a long time before ordering:

"Build a number of more ladders to expand the scope of French farmers going to the city. In addition, go find a group of blacksmiths and build a batch of iron ladder sub-ladders! ”

Thus, the following days became a time for the French army and the French peasants to fight their wits and courage.

The French soldiers tried to prevent the French peasants from entering the city, but they could not use their swords against them, so they could only knock them back. The French peasants, on the other hand, were more miserable. Because, the Spaniards ordered - if they dare to go back, they will be killed.

Therefore, climbing the city wall is an important way for them to survive. Driven by a strong desire to survive, even if most of them were knocked off the city wall and disabled, it was difficult to stop the French peasants from escaping the city wall and seeking refuge from their own king.

In this way, although most of the people were knocked down, some people managed to take advantage of the chaos to climb the city wall, and lay directly on the city wall and did not leave. And, while lying and rolling, he cried:

"Old man, save me, I'll fall to my death if I go down!" In this way, many French soldiers could not bear to do it again. Only the Swiss defended the part, which was not a good move. Because, the Swiss mercenaries speak German and do not understand what the French peasants are crying about, they only know how to carry out orders. For the French peasants who lay on the walls and begged for mercy, these Swiss mercenaries mercilessly lifted them up and threw them off the walls......

In desperation, there were more and more French peasants in the city, and they were close to 10,000. The amount of food they consume every day is also astronomical. Even if the French generals gave these peasants very little food, it was a huge burden for so many people together......

"What should I do?" Louis XII asked again.

"Open the north gate, there are no Spaniards in the north, let these peasants return by land!" Charlie sighed and suggested.

"What if the enemy takes advantage of the opportunity to attack the city?" There were aristocrats who objected.

Charlie sneered and said:

"We are not afraid of the Spaniards attacking at all, we are afraid that they will play tricks like this. If the Spaniards take advantage of the opportunity to open the city gate and storm the north gate, it will be just right for them to see the exquisite martial arts of the French knights! ”

Louis XII slapped the table and said:

"Yes, what you want is to let them attack, if you are not afraid that they will attack, you are afraid that they will not come!"

Then, early the next morning, the tens of thousands of French peasants who poured into the city were each given a few small silver coins to buy food to eat on their way home. Then, the north gate of Naples was opened, and the peasants were forcibly driven out of the city by the French knights......

……

Seeing the French drive the peasants out of the city, Gonzalo. Morality. Córdoba was taken aback. So, he commanded in a loud voice:

"The Castilian (backless) cavalry attacked, and it was important to drive the French peasants back. Tell those French peasants in French - if you want to leave, you will not be killed! ”

As a result, several thousand Spanish bareback cavalry came to the north gate, frantically intercepted the French peasants who wanted to leave, and drove them back. Moreover, these Spanish cavalrymen shouted in unfamiliar French, taught by their superiors:

"If you want to leave, you can't be killed!"
