Chapter 2341 The House of Light (middle)

In 1899, Heloise Mintab, a mute of the Department of Mysteries, used a time-turner to return to 1402 in an experiment. She "landed" just near the battlefield of Ankara, because she lost time in the melee. converter, causing her to be sleepy there for up to five days. When she finally returned to the "now", her body had aged five centuries, suffered irreparable damage, and eventually died in St Mungo's. Not only did her travels result in at least 25 offspring "never born," but the Tuesday after her return lasted two and a half days, with four hours remaining on Thursday.

  Ottoman Sultan "Lightning" Bayezid I used the forest to the east of Ankara to fortify to reduce the mobility advantage of Timur's cavalry, but Timur led his troops to attack the city from the south.

In chess there is a piece of "cannon", which is sometimes written as "cannon". In the travelogue of "Nick Polo", there is a cannon filled with stone bullets on the Lotus Mountain where Wen Tianxiang's anti-Yuan army was located. Made by Tang Ruowang, it uses gunpowder to launch stone bullets. At that time, the "flowering" shells had not yet been invented. It was different from the shells used for siege, and was mainly used for killing, because the lethality of such shells was too cruel. It was published at the Hague International Conference in 1899. A declaration banning the use of this ammunition.

At that time, it was generally believed that the firearms of the Ming Dynasty could restrain the Mongolian cavalry, but Timur's cavalry did not fully adopt the Mongolian tactics. Timur was a Turkic Mongolian. At that time, the best cold weapons of mankind, Damascus steel and the best war horses were almost All come from his territory, and the abundance of its firearms is not inferior to that of the Ming army. And because they came from Central Asia, the fortified castles built by the Persians were far more defensive than the Chinese city walls covered with rammed earth and bricks, and their siege capabilities were far higher than those of Beiyuan.

It is a misunderstanding to think that Timur's army is the Mongolian cavalry under Temujin. When Bayezette saw that Ankara was about to be broken and rushed to support, Timur took advantage of the cavalry again and took advantage of the cavalry in the Great Plains. After fighting for a long time with the Sudanese army, the Tatars and Anatolian coalition forces in the Bayezite army turned their backs one after another. But Timur did not continue to attack the Ottoman Empire after his victory, because at this time he received information that there was civil strife within the Ming Dynasty, and Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, passed the throne to his grandson Zhu Yunwen. , In 1402, when the King of Yan Zhu Di captured Nanjing, Zhu Yunwen's whereabouts were unknown during the war, and there are legends that he died in a fire in the palace.

   However, because of the long distance from China to Ankara, the messenger brought news that the Ming Dynasty was in civil strife. Timur saw the opportunity and quickly returned to Samarkand to prepare for the Eastern Expedition.

   This defeat greatly damaged the vitality of the Ottoman Empire, eased the demise of the Byzantine Empire, but also relieved Timur's worries. However, when Timur returned to China, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, had already become the emperor of Yongle. When he led 200,000 troops to attack the Ming Dynasty, it was difficult to overcome. In 1405, he died in Central Asia at the age of 69. His descendant Babur founded the Mughal Empire in India.

   The focus of the debate between Georgiana and the archbishop was on the issue of punishment. Although the round sentence was equally cruel, her cruelty of "making the best use of everything" was condemned by the archbishop.

She couldn't explain to him that Bonaparte would not let go of those who were plotting against him, and that he was able to maintain this relatively peaceful atmosphere. Without martial law in the city, everyone could go to the square to watch the "air show". Not easy.

  Because Joseph II demolished the city wall of Mechelen, which indeed led to a certain impact on the local security, the representatives elected by the vegetable vendors today did not pay much attention to the assassination of Napoleon, and they were more concerned about the future life.

As for Joseph II's demolition of the city walls of Mechelen, there are roughly two reasons. During the time of Frederick the Great, Prussia built 80 24-pounder guns, each weighing 1,800 pounds. During the War of the Austrian Succession, Hohenfried Castle played an important role in the Battle of Leuten and the Seven Years' War.

The sturdy city walls are like paper paste under the power of 24-pound guns, and they are easily smashed to pieces, and it will cost a lot of money to maintain these city walls. Louis XIV has already demolished the city walls of Paris, so there is no such thing as It is necessary to stay.

  The other is the Beguinage. Few people have been interested in the life of the order since the 16th century, but the order has not completely died out, and even revived in the provinces under Habsburg rule.

After the 30-year war and the plague, the population needs to be restored. The Sisters of Bei Anju will cause obstacles to a certain extent, but they cannot directly order the nuns to return to the secular world, so they have to demolish the city wall. will leave the congregation.

   Sometimes a strong enemy is more conducive to unity than unity; it is easier to do the easy than to do the right.

At the Battle of Leuten, a bullet was shot through the neck into the shoulder blade of a Prussian officer, which happened to hit a captured Austrian soldier, a Belgian who happened to be a graduate of the Faculty of Surgery at the University of Lyon, sadly The soldier had lost his surgical tool, which the Prussian soldier who captured him had given it as a trophy, but the soldier operated on him with a blunt knife from a shoemaker. Luckily he survived, otherwise there would be another widow and fatherless war orphan. Another Junker noble officer was not so lucky. He was only 17 years old and the only son of the family, but because of the deterioration of the wound, watching the death gradually approached with time, he could not even be transported back to his hometown for burial, and the one who performed the operation. The officer was the only one alive who knew where he was buried.

   This story is very suitable for making anti-war movies. The war has brought suffering to many people. However, Georgiana has a hunch that Bonaparte will not agree with the kind of thinking of the "battle priest".

   He once banned the meetings of the Worship of the Gods and Fraternity Association, which is a fairly "uncontested" organization. It did not engage in conspiracies and did not participate in the King Protection Movement, so when it was banned, it was difficult to appease people's hearts. Bonaparte ignored those "public opinions" and let the author of the anti-religious book "The Origin of Religion" become the chairman of the Legislative Yuan, and let the constitutionalist Father Gregoire fill the vacancy in the Senate, as if the one signed The people in the "Special Agreement for Academic Affairs" stood on the opposite side again.

   He asked Georgiana privately if he knew why he did that.

  Protestantism was first arose because of the anti-indulgence. Martin Luther believed that one should obtain forgiveness through pious faith, not in the merits accumulated by one's good deeds, but in God's grace and personal belief in God.

  Sigmund was the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, in addition to him, Charles VI of France and the University of Paris also advocated the reunification of the church.

  The anti-pope was originally called the anti-pope, the pseudo-pope, referring to those who received the pope's honor due to the controversial pope election. When Gregory XI died in Rome, the Romans wanted to keep the Church in Rome, so they elected an Italian pope. Back to Avignon for another election.

This schism nominally ended with Martin V. In fact, the anti-pope of Avignon lasted until 1437. By 1449, there was no anti-pope. The last anti-pope was Felix, Duke of Savoy. V, son of the red count Amedeo VII, who was promoted to duke by Sigismund in 1416, he extended his territory all the way to the Ligurian coast.

   He used the surviving Basel Council to be elected as Pope, and when his son became an adult, he concentrated on being Pope until he was persuaded by Pope Nicholas V to retire in 1449.

  The Ottoman sultans had a title called "Shadow of the Gods". After the Ottomans took Constantinople, they claimed to be the legitimate heirs of the ancient Roman Empire. The sultans occasionally used the titles of Caesar and Emperor.

  Although the Ottoman Empire is currently in decline, the Ottoman Empire is also a newborn star from the dust after the Arab Empire's "supernova explosion". Perhaps there will be new stars born from the dust of the Ottomans, and even if there is no threat from the Ottoman Empire, there are other countries that give up force for peace, and even the ability to protect themselves is impossible in Bonaparte's eyes.

   She is not against the Pietists, which would lead to persecution, nor against the Haller model. She thinks it is very practical, but she cannot agree with the Haller model, which trains war orphans into alternate soldiers.

She didn't know how to explain it to the archbishop, but she was born a woman, and she knew that women sacrificed time to go out to play, just like the German lullaby sings in the boring child at home, not to let him go to the battlefield one day as "cannon fodder" of.

   There are also people who disagree with her point of view. In the process of expansion, nobles get manors and peasants get farms. This kind of "profitable war" is more attractive than "unprofitable peace".

   If the author of the fable of the bee can leave this question to a wiser person, who will she leave it to?

   Following the blood flowing into a small stream, I carefully climbed the hill,

  The corpses were all over the place, and the survivors stood up.

   If it is the resurrection stone of the Deathly Hallows, it may not be the "survivor" that stands up, but the corpse.

   What seems to move does not necessarily mean that it is still alive, just like the unicorn corpse resurrected by Grindelwald in the International Federation of Wizards, the "returned" is not one of the twin unicorns, no matter how it is called, the other party can't hear it.

According to Novikov's self-consistency principle, time travel doesn't actually change anything, anything the traveler does, just creates a situation that they notice before traveling, like Harry and Hermione in third grade done.

  Heloise Mintab died after only 5 days, was it because she stayed too long, or because she changed history so that time was messed up?

   Pomona stayed for more than 5 days, so her return to "now" means she will die too?

   But Hermione Granger uses the time switch just to learn, how she is in this world, the world in which her body is located will not matter.

   Strangely, why did she know that her body did not come to this world? How strange.
