Eagle Flag of Epirus

"As for your concerns, in fact, I have already considered the means to deal with it before, and I believe you don't need to worry about me anymore." Justinian's calm answer, who broke the silence, made Anas, who was still working on how to clean up the mess. Grand Duke Tarsius couldn't help being taken aback.

　　 "What did you say?" The old man asked, looking at Justinian half-suspectingly.

And Justinian stretched out three fingers and said with ease: "Regarding the problems left by the Latins, you may face counterattacks from the enemy and revenge from the Venetians. In fact, I have already had countermeasures before, so don’t worry, dad. Right!" He knew that although the old man in front of him was harsh and thorny, he was actually worried about his inability to protect himself. After experiencing the battle of life and death in Fort Wiscari, although it was because of reality that he became the adopted son of Anastasius, the other party did not treat himself as a tool, but really regarded himself as his own. I will teach you all the experience and do your best to help Justinian who is still growing up. Therefore, Justinian also cherished the great respect from the bottom of his heart, which is why even though the fragment of the second ark was on the scepter of the old man in front of him, he did not move.

On the other side, Anastasius, who was very surprised, still looked at the young man in disbelief, "Don’t fool me with this old bone, I’m not joking with you, you must know that as my heir Those guys in Conil will stare at you all the time. Any mistake is very fatal to you."

But what answered him was Justinian’s sure response, “Don’t worry! The remnants of Achaia’s kingdom are just a stopgap measure. There is no place for them in the empire. If you want to win first, you must first. Sooner or later, the Latins in Corinth will pay the price for what they do.” He previously offered the conditions for surrendering the nobles of the Achaean kingdom not to be a compromise as a cannonball covered with sugar, but more for the sake of Just let the other party relax their vigilance

"But doing so can cause dissatisfaction among many people, not only the nobles, but also the civilians, and the public often has a tainted memory of a person much deeper than his contribution!" Anastasius shook. Shaking his head is very disapproving. In the Roman Empire, it is an indispensable weapon for the importance of a future politician. Justinian does not seem to be doing this at present, but it is likely to become the handle of political enemies in the future. "In addition, what about the threat of Thessaloniki and the Latins of Constantinople? Especially as Boniface, the overlord of the Duchy of Athens and Achaia, based on what I know about him, he is I won't let it go."

"Not to mention them. Now they are probably more of a headache for the Bolgars, and the Latins in Constantinople currently only regard Nicaea as a thorn in their eyes, and they have no time to pay attention to us, the only threatening thing. Only the Venetians. But since the Crusades, they have been recovering and busy dividing up the loot they obtained in Constantinople, and the power they can mobilize is temporarily unable to threaten us. And more importantly, they In fact, he is also very jealous and dare not act rashly."

　　 "Don't dare to act rashly?" Looking at the confident Justinian, even the old man couldn't understand, Anastasius asked suspiciously.

"Have you forgotten whose fleet you rely on to help attack Athens?" said with a sly smile, and Justinian said eloquently, and he explained the key point, and it was precisely before he set out. A good game set.

"It's a Pizza?!" Anastasius replied subconsciously. This was mentioned in the Justinian battle report, but he showed a thoughtful look as soon as he finished speaking, and seemed to realize it. what.

And Justinian in front of him also nodded firmly and said: "Yes, it seems that the pizza people in Nafplio were forced to participate in this war by me because of my coercion and lure, and they have been hiding themselves. As a mercenary, he joined in. But after the war, the pizza merchants who watched the entire Moglia frequent exchanges made huge profits, and they also got Piraeus Port and Evia Island. The things that belong to the Venetians, will Venice really think that they are innocent? Even if they have doubts in their hearts, they will already have grievances in their hearts."

　　 This is Justinian’s last resort. Although it is Genoa who is really behind the scenes to obstruct the maritime hegemony of Venice, and the empire has received more help from Genoa, Genoa’s attitude has always been ambiguous and ambiguous. This also led to the fact that when Venice really directly intervened in the peninsula situation, Justinian lacked the ability to truly check and balance the opponent's overturning the chessboard~www.ltnovel.com~ but when the Pisa was dragged into the water, the situation was completely different. Up.

Pierre, the governor of the Pisa, seemed to be a shrewd businessman, but he was actually stunned. From the time he was coaxed by Justinian and then threatened to hook against the Venetian pirates, he has completely let far count. The Republic of Pisa, thousands of miles away, can no longer stay out of the picture.

At the beginning, Justinian promised Pierre to take advantage of the fire to take advantage of the large amount of remuneration at sea. The same is true, not only to allow the Pizzas to get a piece of the cake in Greece, but also to make the Venetians who see them feel good. doubt. It is suspected that the force behind the Byzantine Empire is the Republic of Pisa, also a maritime power. We must know that both have always been a united front firmly opposed to Genoa. Using this ingenious method to plant seeds of distrust can also slow down the Venetians' pace of dealing with it. It is a bit heavier and can win the trust of Genoa, which has always been vague. Said to kill three birds with one stone.

"Now what we have to wait for is the reaction of the Genoese. I believe everything that happens here will reach their ears soon, and once they move, the Venetians will definitely not dare to make any big moves. It’s just that I’m worried about what I’m going to do.” Venice is able to gain a foothold in northern Italy to a large extent is the two allies of the Principality of Milan on land and the Republic of Pisa on the sea, Justinian. Why can't disputes arise with only a small price? As the philosopher said, "the souls of the king and the shoemaker are no different, and the neighbours' discord is often the reason for the country's declaration of war", not to mention the contradiction caused by the uneven distribution of spoils.
