Eagle Flag of Epirus

Vol 5 Chapter 56: play hard

Just as the Duke Otto and Gottfrey were in a dispute, the Venetian who watched coldly interrupted what the angry Duke Otto was about to say, "Enough, just listen to what the Marquis of Gottfrey said. Let's wait and see the changes for the time being, anyway, there is no food supply, the Greeks will not last long in this isolated city." Vernier is unwilling to continue the siege, it will only cause excess losses. Anyway, the Greeks nowadays are the fish on the knife and let them slaughter.

   Seeing this scene, even though he was unwilling in his heart, Duke Otto had to give up temporarily. Helpless, the three-way coalition forces are the weakest now, and the Venetians can only accept helplessly when they are arrogant on his territory. There was a trace of resentment in his eyes, Otto Roche had to retire, and when he passed by Gottfrey's side, he slammed into it with his shoulder and whispered coldly: "The usurper!"

   After all, the rude man walked away under the gazes of Vernier and Gottfrey, and the look on Gottfrey's face couldn't help but become pale. Undoubtedly, his identity is now the biggest pain point. Although the Venetians helped him complete this coup, it is obviously not so easy to escape the eyes of Alto Roche, who is close at hand.

But while looking at the disappearing figure of the other party, Baron Vernier showed a trace of disdain, and said: "It seems that the Burgundian knights are all the same stubborn guys!" Obviously he said. With a hint of coldness, it is also a knight from Burgundy. What is the fate of the Marquis of William Chapulit? It goes without saying that this Venetian is like a master of life and death against a monarch of the dignified Athenian Principality. In the eyes. This made Gottfrey's heart chuckle. Nowadays, without the restraint of the Romans, Venice has swelled to the point where it can't be added, and it may be a very bad consequence. Think about it, just because it is not in the interests of the Venetians, the power of Achaia was easily subverted by the other party, so what if one day one day is abandoned by the other party? After thinking about it, I felt scared, and Gottfrey couldn't help but bow his head silently.

And he didn’t notice the change in Gottfrey’s mentality. Turned around and walked to the table to look at the topographic map, he said, “Although it is possible to wait until the Greeks have all run out of food, I will solve them. It's still a bit boring to think. Why don't we give our enemies a new trick! I remember the Greeks left a lot of corpses when they fled."

  As soon as this statement came out, Gottfrey could not help but noticed a little strangeness in the other party's words, "Do you want to...?"

I saw that the young man in front of me showed an understatement on his face and said: "When I traveled to the East, I had been to Egypt, and I saw the Egyptian Sudan besieging the Crusader’s castle and threw the corpse into the city with a trebuchet. , The oppression of that kind of fear will drive even normal people crazy."

"Are you serious, Lord Vernier?" After listening, Gottfrey, who took a breath of air, looked at the young man before him in horror, but he said indifferently when he was less than 30 years old. Said these words. You must know that this method, although wars between the Crusaders and Saracens are very common, but now they are fighting against the Greeks who are also Christians and using such cruel methods to blow morale is enough to cause an uproar. Even as a usurper, he dare not easily agree with this approach.

But looking at Gottfrey’s reaction, Vernier, with his head tilted slightly, mocked coldly: “Could it be that you think I’m joking? The most important thing is to end this as soon as possible, my trip. It is to investigate what force behind the Battle of Wiscari Fort the Greeks is supporting them, but there is no time to waste here. I remember Lord Gottfrey, you should not be an indecisive person, otherwise we would not I picked you."

   "Just in case, if this matter reaches the Holy See..."

"So what happened in the past. After the Crusaders ransacked Zara and Constantinople, the Innocent Innocent was just a few easy condemnations. Didn't even the excommunication order be withdrawn? As long as there is sufficient interest, even the apostle of God will turn a blind eye to what Satan does." Without putting the eyes of the Holy See and the world in his eyes at all, Vernier said dismissively , Perhaps the western countries have to be afraid of religious rights, but the pragmatic Republic of Venice does not have this trouble. Even if the innocent III, who is known as the most powerful, ordered the Venetians and Genoese to stop trade with *~www.ltnovel.com~, but in the end it just became a piece of waste paper. After all, the entire Western world who wants to launch the Crusades of the Eastern Crusade has to rely on their ships to transport them, and even Innocent dare not move them.

After listening to the other party, Gottfrey also felt a chill in his heart. No wonder no one is willing to deal with Venetians and Genoese, but he also knows that he has no room for rejection now, and the other party’s hint is already obvious. , If he really doesn't follow what the man in front of him said, William Chapulitt is his fate.

   "What can be said is that I will go down and arrange for someone to prepare..." There was a reluctant smile on his face, but the man had to obey.

Facing the monarchs of the dignified Achaia vassal state, he looked at the map in front of him with a calm expression. He waved his hand and said, "Very well, you go down first!" After that, he looked at the map in front of him. , There is also a trace of complacency on his face. Behind this trip, he got the support of the Vernier family. As the great nobles in Venice, they have always been suppressed by the Dandoro family, and the Dandoro family not long ago was at the Battle of Fort Wiscari The fiasco gave them a chance to take the lead. The elders in the family gave Cynvenir the task, and he naturally did his best. If the matter here is resolved this time, perhaps it shouldn't be a guarantee that he will be able to win the race from now on, and it will not be impossible for him to run for governor in the future.

   However, just as this man was immersed in the joy of future success, in the night, when the Latin army was completely unaware of it, an army hidden in the night had arrived behind the Latin barracks and stared at him. And it was no one else who led them, it was Leo's defense commander and Arslan.
