Eagle Flag of Epirus

Vol 5 Chapter 7: The confrontation between soldiers approaching the city (part 1)

Justinian's fierce questioning immediately made many soldiers under Justinian ashamed, and for a while the bow and arrow that had been opened was released again.

But at this moment, Moswar's voice suddenly sounded.

"Master Justinian, I think you seem to have some misunderstanding about us..."

Moswar stopped Romanus Dukas, who was already burning with anger, and explained, looking at Justinian in the city faintly. Invisible, in a few words, the man played down the tense atmosphere just now. Mosvall saw at a glance that the soldiers guarding the city were shaken by Justinian's questioning, and immediately interrupted Justinian's speech. At this moment, only by seizing its momentum can it stop all of this.

"However, I don't think there is any misunderstanding, Your Excellency Mooswar, if there is no such army behind me this time, I am afraid I have not even had the opportunity to say that." Justinian raised his eyes and looked at Moos. Val, said coldly, even though he knew that the opponent was just a jester under Theodor, but the man who caused all this is undoubtedly this man, but it is the frustrated Romanus Dukas even though he is now an empire. The Earl of the military town is not enough to be regarded by Justinian, so on the contrary, it is Muswar, a Saracen, that makes Justinian a little bit jealous.

And as soon as Justinian's voice fell, an angry voice came from the city, and it was Zeodo Cephalon on the other side.

"Presumptuous, Justinian, you are too arrogant, do you know who you are talking to? Even with your identity, you dare to be so rude. You brought so many people here. Not only did you not dismount the horse, but you also said so. Kyogen, is it impossible to start a rebellion?"

Even though the stern man looked at the army behind Justinian in front of him, he was already frightened, but now that he had torn his face openly with the other party, he could only bite the bullet.

But just as soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of something fast tearing the air in his ears, and then a flower in front of him, a feather arrow passed from his cheek and nailed behind him. On the city wall, and the man who had just reacted quickly hugged his head and squatted down in panic!

It turned out to be a bow and arrow, and it was only a little bit before the defenseless Zeodo Cephalon's life was killed.

At this time, there was a lazy and indifferent voice from the city, just listening to Justinian said: "I am indeed arrogant, but our Lord Zeodoro Cephalon is still greedy for life and fear of death as always!" Then Justinian said. There was a burst of laughter from the army behind him, which made the gloomy Zeodo Cephalon even more embarrassed. Looking below, the person shooting the arrow just now was the Turkic Al who followed Justinian. Silan. It was his archery that made Zeodore Cephalon, who had been stern on the front of the city, lost face, and for a while, even the Byzantine soldiers in the city were agitated because of the officer's embarrassment.

This time even Romanus Dukas, who had been persuaded by Muswar before, couldn't help it. Such a move didn't put him in the slightest at all. The irritable young nobleman couldn't help shouting angrily: " Justinian, don’t deceive people too much! I’m here this time on behalf of my father, Prince Theodor. Don’t think that there’s no way you can do it like before."

However, this is exactly what Justinian had in his arms, "Is that right, then I will wait and see!" The retorted Justinian had no fear of Romanus Dukas. On the contrary, he was deliberately irritating the other party to test. The opponent's hole cards.

But just when Romanus was about to break out, Muswar interrupted the conversation and said loudly: "Master Justinian, you are misunderstood. His Royal Highness Romanus came to reward the front line only on the order of the prince. It's just a soldier, and there is no malice."

"No malice? Since there is no malice, then why did I seize my military power without authorization? I remember that His Royal Highness did not deprive me of command of the Fourth Company!" Even though Justinian did not press forward and sternly asked, but The flat voice is still critical, and the reason for all of this is that the strong soldiers behind him make everyone in Tripolis fearful. Once the conflict between the two sides breaks out, the consequences will be serious. Make up. Even Romanus, who hated Justinian's teeth, had to hesitate. This time he was sent by his father to go south. If he fails, it will undoubtedly seriously damage his impression in his heart. Romanus Dukas did not want to see this scene anyway.

But compared to other people who were already a little panicked, Moswar was still calm.

"Master Justinian, don't forget, the Fourth Company is the guard of His Royal Highness, and His Royal Highness Romanus has the power to dispatch."

"But they are now the army of the empire under my command, not any private army!" Justinian did not give the slightest concession in this regard~www.ltnovel.com~ His eyes are as sharp as a knife so that everyone is not. Dare to look at him, "What's more, now that the city gates are closed and the city's defenders are fully armed, is this also what you say is not malicious?" Of course, Justinian would not believe it at all for such a ridiculous answer. I'm afraid that the other party had already made preparations before and thought that he could only become a turtle in the urn and catch it. It's a pity that things are fickle. At this time, the situation of the two sides has been completely reversed. However, from the previous few words, Justinian noticed clues. Sure enough, just as Justinian guessed, the current situation in Peloponnese has not completely stabilized. Theodore was actually not so anxious to cross the river to demolish the bridge, and almost all of what he did in Tripolis was Romanus Ducas's own opinion.

On the other hand, Muswar seemed to be the spokesperson of Romanus Dukas, and replied in a deep voice: "Although the Latins in the north surrender now, it does not mean that the threat has been completely lifted, does it, Chas Lord Tenny?"

"Then in that case, open the door and let my army enter the city." Justinian suddenly raised the volume as if a sharp sword pierced the vital point without merciless hesitation, but this made the people at the head of the city suddenly feel nervous.

How is this possible? At this time they still have the confidence to rely on the walls of Tripolis, but if such a huge army enters the city, if the situation is out of control, Justinian will suddenly attack, and no one of them can stop it. .

But for this, the Saracen on the city’s head was already prepared and calm. "Of course Mr. Justinian is right, but I still can’t agree to your request. It’s because of Mr. Justinian. It seems that the troops behind you were not given to you by Prince Theodor."
