Eagle Flag of Epirus

Vol 4 Chapter 39: Panic city

Neusky opened Leo's barracks without saying a word, his face was pale, and this scene happened to be seen by Eriksson.

Although he didn't know what was going on, Eriksson remembered this scene secretly, and just as he was slightly lost in thought, Leo's calm voice came from his ear.

"What's the matter, Eriksson?" Leo is now an official of Justinian. Although he doesn't have any title, he still has great power when Justinian is away. Therefore, looking at Eriksson, who was a senior officer of the Byzantine Fourth Company, seemed very calm.

And then I realized that Eriksen, who had just lost his mind, showed a trace of panic on his face, but then he recovered his calmness and quickly explained: "Your Excellency Leo, you asked me to send someone to investigate the situation in the north. You are here to report."

Leo then remembered that he had asked Eriksson to send troops to investigate the movement of the Achaia state. After all, although the news was sealed, if the Latins really knew that Tripolis did not have Justinian in charge, it might not be. Will not come to attack.

When the time comes, there will be the threat of Achaia, and there will be a concerted effort inside Zeodoro Cephalon. It will undoubtedly be a fantasy to rely on Leo alone. Therefore, he sent people out to investigate the situation to prepare in advance.

"It turned out to be like this, I almost forgot. This is too much work. What is the trend of the Latins?" Leo asked seriously, and it can be said that the current trends of the Latins are second only to Justin. Nepal safe things he cares about.

I saw Eriksson replied respectfully: "Please don't worry. Everything is normal. It seems that the Latins are worried that our army in Agrignon may attack their north, so the Latins are still standing still."

The army sent by Eriksson has been observing the movements of the Latins these days, although after the fall of Southern Peloponnese, Achaia transferred its focus from Corinth to Peloponnese. The peninsula, but apart from strengthening the defense, there was no other move.

Obviously, the Latins were scrupulous about the threat from the north. Not long ago, the Earl of Theodor of Agriñon accurately said that now the veritable prince sent a large army to besiege Corinth and break out a fierce battle with the Principality of Athens.

Considering this reason, the Achaeans in desperation obviously did not have the energy to worry about the south.

After getting this answer, Leo was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed like Justinian had guessed it. As they opened up the situation to the south, Agrinon really did something immediately. Now Ya Caia Hou State seems to be still powerful, but in fact it has fallen into the dilemma of fighting on two fronts. In this way, they can finally breathe a sigh of relief in Tripolis.

In just a few days, hundreds of Byzantine men have come to join the army one after another. Many of them were soldiers who were originally stationed in the Moria Military District. They were disbanded and kept incognito after the Battle of Olive Grove, and now they see Byzantine eagles. When the flag once again flew over this land, they immediately gathered to respond. It seems that it will not be long before the losses in the Battle of Alfios will be almost recovered. Leo's face couldn't help showing a look of joy.

At this moment, Eriksson didn't lose the opportunity to ask suddenly: "Your Excellency Leo, I saw that His Excellency Nevsky's expression seemed a little wrong just now. Is it due to Master Justinian..."

He is a smart person. As Mouswar's eyes and ears here deliberately, Eriksen immediately guessed what was going on, and slightly tentatively said.

However, Leo in front of him changed his face and replied in a flat tone of thousands of miles away: "This is not something you should be concerned about, Eriksson, Lord Justinian has other things to leave temporarily. So if you can’t get back in the short term, don’t ask about other things."

Before seeing Leo suddenly turned his face to deny him, Eriksson was also quite embarrassed. The man who knew that the other party obviously hadn't fully trusted him, knew that he couldn't find out other things, nodded and resigned silently.

And looking at Eriksson’s back, Leo’s face was also full of dignity. As Justinian’s confidant, he naturally knew Eriksson’s details, but since Justinian said that he would not In order to stun the snake, he must have a good sense of his attitude towards him. Not only must he entrust important figures such as the investigating Latin to Erickson to confuse him, but also prevent him from inquiring about important news.

But now the more important thing is Justinian’s safety. In fact, he and Neusky are very worried. Although Justinian is talking about the ten-day period, he actually promised to deliver the message after three days. Yes, there is no news now, I am afraid that Neusky's worries about Wiscari Castle at this time may not be unnecessary.

I can only hope that God can bless you, Lord Justinian, please go there for nothing! Looking into the distance, Leo muttered to himself.

...

At the same time, the Fort Wiscari, the southernmost point of the Peloponnese, fell into a huge crisis just as Neusky feared. The Venetian blockade of the castle has reached the second day. They even wanted to cut off the water source of the castle halfway up the mountain. If the Byzantines hadn't repelled the enemy at all costs, it would only take a day for the Fort Wiscari to surrender. No water to drink is more expensive than hunger. People fear.

But even so, the panic in the city has spread like a plague, and both civilians and nobles have felt overwhelmed.

"Just kill Justinian and dedicate his head to the Venetians, and Fort Wiscari can turn the crisis into peace."

There is such a sentence circulating in the open and in the dark. I don't know who it is to leak the news of the Venetian ultimatum. It has been known to everyone in just one day.

At this moment, in Justinian's mansion, the Turkic guards who followed him also tightened their nerves, guarding Justinian's safety and preventing any suspicious people from appearing. Not only that, even Grand Duke Anastasius also arranged a guard for Justinian.

But in the secluded study, Arslan looked at Justinian who was reading the book leisurely, but he was furious.

"You are really a lunatic. Someone has already caught sight of you. He didn't hesitate to let a baron take the opportunity to assassinate you on the battlefield, and now you have deliberately leaked the Venetian ultimatum. Are you really bored?

That’s right, it’s not someone else who leaked this news, it was Justinian. After visiting Grand Duke Anastasius~www.ltnovel.com~, he sent someone to deliberately reveal the Venetian ultimatum. Now the whole city is going uproariously. This is undoubtedly suicide in Arslan's view. Even with the intimidation of the Venetians, the people in Fort Wiscari may not be as sensible as Grand Duke Anastasius, as the old man said, who can't stop a dying person from drinking poison to quench his thirst. In doing this, Justinian created a group of potential enemies invisibly, which Arslan couldn't understand.

But Justinian shrugged slightly and said: "This news will be leaked sooner or later. Even if I don't do it, people who want my life will do it. It's just a matter of time."

"That's better than doing it myself!" Arslan said with his arms akimbo.

However, what Justinian said below made Arslan, who was originally annoyed, suddenly stunned.

"No, because of this, now I can justify my defense. Even Grand Duke Anastasius has sent his guards to protect my safety. This will not only make it impossible for those who secretly want to deal with me, but also avoid us. Fight the grass and startle the snake." Justin put away his original leisurely expression and said, and this is his real purpose.
