Eagle Flag of Epirus

"That's true. I think you already know that this time I'm here to invite you to come over to discuss, in order to resolve the entire grim situation." Emperor Henry nodded without concealing his worries about the Byzantine counterattack at this moment. At this moment, within the court, Only the Big Three who captured Constantinople in the past, and the officials were not allowed to enter outside the palace.

"I didn't expect that even you would be at a loss. But in just a few months, these damned Greeks have actually revived again. It's incredible." Boniface looked at him with teasing. But despite saying this verbally, he knew in his heart that if even this man finds it tricky, then there is no doubt that the situation has undoubtedly reached a very bad point. In fact, since the conflict with Henry of Flandre broke out a few months ago, Boniface has returned to his fief in Northern Italy. He also learned about the situation of his kingdom of Thessaloniki not long ago. Already at stake.

"You have been in Italy a month ago when you heard the news of the Bulgarian movement before you rushed back. Naturally, you don't know. Many earth-shaking changes have taken place in these short months." Governor Dandoro on the side breathed coarsely. As he said, even though his eyes were old and decayed next year, the old man was still sharp in his thinking and reacted quickly, without a trace of memory decline.

"But they should have fallen apart without a leader. I remember not long ago, didn't His Majesty Henry chase down the Greeks in Nicaea like a group of bereaved dogs?" It's not surprising that Boniface has risen to the Bulgar. The strength of the Byzantines gathered together was completely beyond his expectations. Obviously, the Byzantine Empire that had lost Constantinople should be torn apart for a short time without threats. However, as far as he knew, in Epirus on the west coast, the Greeks there had clearly risen and caused huge trouble. This really makes Boniface also puzzled, which is really unreasonable.

The Emperor Henry nodded, a solemn expression appeared on his face: "It is true. The Lascaris family in the east has no threat, but I did not expect that Muzifius would escape to Epiru. And got the support of the Dukas family."

"Muzfeus... it's him, he is not dead yet?!" Boniface jumped up from his position in a slight surprise, of course he remembered the name. The original purpose of their soldiers coming to Constantinople was actually to help the young Alexei overthrow the rule of Alex III, but the coup d’état launched by Muzfius suddenly failed their plan. Therefore, for him, the Latins can say that they hate him. But after the fall of Constantinople, Muzfius disappeared. Boniface thought he was dead, but now the Emperor Henry and Governor Dandorro told him that this man was not dead. Instead, it was safe to Epirus.

"This is not a good thing..."

"Of course, with the banner of Muzfius, Mikhail Dukas has successfully integrated the nobles of the Western Empire and ambitiously reached an alliance agreement with the Kingdom of Bulgaria." Emperor Henry said.

"This is undoubtedly the worst thing. Once Epirus and Bulgaria join forces to attack, our situation will be extremely bad!" Boniface, who learned of these details, was startled in a cold sweat, but then Dandoro said His words made his face paler even more.

"Although the threats from the north and west are not small, the Greeks and Bolgars joining forces may not be sincere. For the time being, we don’t have to worry too much. In comparison, the situation in the south is the worst. Not long ago, Epiru. The sudden attack severely damaged our allies in the Peloponnese. The Principality of Athens and Achaia had to surrender. Although the whole territory has not been occupied by the Greeks, it is clear that the Greeks have no worries. This is also true. It means..."

"This also means that Thessaloniki has fallen into a three-sided siege. Obviously, after dealing with Moria, the next goal of the Greeks is undoubtedly the Macedonia area you occupy at this time." Henry's gaze fell on Boniface and Xiaoyi took advantage, and speaking in this plain tone made Boniface who knew all this shocked, even if he was once the leader of the Crusade. The man also panicked.

"Damn Greeks! They actually... But how could this happen? William Chapulet and Otto Roche are incompetent!" Boniface almost roared, the two from Achaia and Athens. The monarchs were once his subordinates, and their subordinates were all elite teachers among the Crusaders, but now they actually surrendered to the former defeated generals-the Greeks, which made this irritable man burn with anger.

But Dandoro shook his head and said, "But this is probably not the case. Not long ago, a fleet led by my son suffered a terrible defeat in the south~www.ltnovel.com~ witnessed everything, obviously now The Greeks are not as vulnerable as before. The lions have awakened in their hearts. From what we know so far, the combat effectiveness of the Epirus army cannot be underestimated. Maybe they have a powerful commander, maybe they Behind the scenes, another force is supporting them."

The army in Venice also suffered a disastrous defeat. Boniface, who was surprised once again, finally couldn't sit still. As a former partner, he knew the strength of the Venice fleet, but even this was actually frustrated in the confrontation between the Greeks. This caused a huge sense of crisis in the man's heart.

But immediately Boniface regained his composure, looking at the Emperor Henry and Governor Dandolo in front of him, "After saying so much, what are you going to do? I want to call me here for fear, not just to say this, right? "Both are smart people. With Boniface's understanding of the two in front of him, he believes that the other party is definitely not just trying to tell himself about the predicament he is facing at this moment. Boniface, who was unwilling to circumvent the corners, immediately got to the point, and Henry and Dandro had been waiting for him to say this.

Governor Dandoro, who only listened to the side, spoke slowly: "After discussing with His Majesty Henry, we decided to take the initiative... First we attacked Bulgaria and defeated them to destroy the morale of the Greeks, but we need your help in this matter. Boniface!" The old man slowly revealed their amazing battle plan. The Latin Empire that was already under siege at the moment did not intend to shrink its defenses. On the contrary, Dandoro and Henry were prepared to attack first, but this was impossible. No need for Boniface's support.

But Boniface, who learned of all this, was not surprised, with a subtle smile on his face, "Oh, really, then I think this is indeed worthy of our discussion..."
