El cronista en su forma mentis se ciñe a la doctrina tradicional de la guerra, expresada en Vegecio (De re militari) y en la Glosa Caste-llana al Regimiento de Príncipes de Egidio Romano. Esto se ve claramente en las dos últimas crónicas.No se detiene en la cuestión en las dos primeras; antes bien, cuando nos topamos con el tema caballeresco ob-servamos un atisbo de lo contrario; esto se debe a que el eje de su relato apunta a destruir la figura de Pedro, y para eso le resulta funcional una visión en la que despunta la modernidad, paradójicamente
The chronicler strictly sticks to the traditional way of seeing things, adhering especially to the traditional doctrine on war, such as Vegecio’s work and Egidio Romano’s book, the Glosa Castellana al Regimiento de Príncipes. His last two chronicles are a clear testimony of this. But he doesn’t deal with this matter in his first two chronicles; as a matter of fact quite to the contrary, when he addresses the knightly question, one can observe that he seems to think differently. This is because the core idea underlining his work is an attempt to destroy the figure of Pedro; to that end, paradoxically, he appeals to ideas that seem to anticipate more modern ones
