Description

En 1545 llega una goleta al puerto de Mesina. Lleva navegando semanas por el Mediterráneo. Son prisioneros fugados de una prisión de Estambul. En ella viajan varios supervivientes del tercio de Sarmiento, el que seis años antes defendió hasta las últimas consecuencias la plaza de Castelnuovo. Andrés, un soldado del tercio, nos contará cómo se disolvió la Santa Liga y cómo fueron abandonados a su suerte en una fortaleza rodeada por tropas otomanas, comandadas por Barbarroja que, aprovechando la situación, decide recuperarala. La relación de fuerzas es de 4000 soldados españoles por unos 64 000 otomanos, así que, sin ayuda del exterior, la única decisión es rendir la plaza o morir. Dicho de otro modo, la única opción era morir. English: In 1545 a schooner arrives at the port of Messina. It has been sailing for weeks in the Mediterranean. They're escaped prisoners from a prison in Istanbul. Several survivors of Sarmiento's third, the one who six years before defended Castelnuovo square until the last consequences, were travelling there. Andrés, a soldier of the third, will tell us how the Holy League was dissolved and how they were abandoned to their fate in a fortress surrounded by Ottoman troops, commanded by Barbarossa who, taking advantage of the situation, decided to recover it. The relation of forces is 4000 Spanish soldiers for about 64 000 Ottomans, so, without help from the outside, the only decision is to surrender the square or die. In other words, the only option was to die.
