If eastern Hungaria was firmly under Hungarian control, the north-eastern lands were under independant princes control, whose the most powerful was prince Prokuj, that controlled the rich salt mines and some important cities, just near the Szeklers lands . Lord Prokuj was, like the Hungarians pagan . Coumt Gyula Szekler was called by the prince Prokuj, whose he was a vassal, to rise against the Hungarians . He had with him a little goup of 50 knights and 200 levy infantry and was marhing as avanguard of the rest of prince's army towards the eastern Transilvania . The prince was too powerful and the Szeklers could not do resistance ; they knew however that also the prince Prokuj received orders from the princes of Moldova . - Generally I don't dislike wars but not one like this ; Hungarians are more powerful than us, our only possibility is that all feudataries revolt - he told to his second . He then saw the reflek of a spear in a little group of trees . - Zambor dispose your men along the road ; we will have to fight . - He told this when Zambor was hitten in an arm . - Goddamnit sir ! - Someone told - Charge ! - The knights charged the attackers and found them ahill ; it was a slaughter . The poor manants were killed one by one by the knights while they were fleeing . Only one remained alive, because he was evidently of more elevated condition than his comrades, and was brought to the coumt . - What's your name ? - Asked the coumt - Radu - - So you are Valachian aren't you ? - - Yes sir - - Well how many men could you put together ? - - One hundred peasants, twenty knights sir - Said the Romanian - You are my vassal from now, because I've beaten you in battle, you will remain with your host in my army, until someone will pay for your freedom . - Told the coumt before returning on his horse, advancing . This would be a stupid war, he thought, and had to treat the soonest possible with the Hungarian kings . |
