Eagle Flag of Epirus

Vol 2 Chapter 5: negotiation

   "Did you say so?" Justinian asked after looking at Caroyan in front of him.

"You are presumptuous!" Justinian's words undoubtedly angered the Bolgars. After they defeated Baldwin's army, they did not put the Latins in their eyes. But now the young man actually said that their victory was not worth mentioning. Except for the two of them, everyone was angry.

   Both Grand Duke Ivan and Czaroyan appeared to be very calm and did not get angry at Justinian's words.

   In fact, on more than one occasion, Kaloyan was urged by his courtiers to attack Constantinople. This has been the Bolgarian’s dream for hundreds of years, but deep down in his heart, the czar was hesitant.

The Latin army that was able to defeat Baldwin completely relied on surprise attacks and the aid of the Thracian Greek Resistance Army, but the first thing to deal with in order to take Constantinople was the towering and seemingly insurmountable Theodosius wall-countless barbarians were They tried to surpass, but they all ended in failure. Whether it is Attila, Russ or Arab*, the Bolgars once ransacked Macedonia during the First Kingdom, but they had nothing to do with Constantinople.

Today, Kaloyan can mobilize only two to three thousand people, which is not enough to besiege Constantinople. However, the Greek refugees who escaped from Constantinople are interrogated time and time again. They all claim that the Latins are already vulnerable. This is aggravated. Bulgars are blindly confident and eager to give the Latins a final blow. Except for Ivan Assen, almost all the Bulgarian nobles supported the final attack.

   At this time, the young man made a different voice, which made Kaloyan look at him differently, and Ivan Asen, who was on the side, also paid attention to this Justinian, who was about the same size as him. I haven't paid much attention before, but at this time Justinian was still so calm when facing the dignified Bulgarian tsar, obviously he was definitely not an ordinary person.

   "It's amazing, it can be said that you are the only one besides Ivan to persuade me to stop the attack." Kaloyan said, looking at Justinian with a meaningful smile.

Seeing Kaloyan’s reaction, Justinian immediately understood what he said, “It seems that you have already made your own decision for the czar. Instead, I have to talk a lot.” Obviously, the czar actually said something. It has also been decided to withdraw only because of the opposition of most of the nobles and has not given any orders. Sure enough, he was right!

   But the other Bolgar nobles who were present looked at Justinian with hostility. It was clear that their czar intended to retreat, but no one dared to act rashly without Kaloyan's permission.

Silently looking at the Greek boy with subtle eyes, Kaloyan finally said, "If you can say this, you are not an ordinary business traveler, are you?" He didn't think that the fleeing civilians had such a vision. Moreover, the forbearance of holding back the hatred of leaving home and not asking the Bolgars to avenge the Latins made this man feel complimented, and he couldn't help wondering about Justinian's true identity.

But as soon as this statement came out, Dekulin was surprised at first. Justinian was entrusted by his good friend Vasili to **** him to Epirus. He was not willing to let him have any accidents, and at the same time Muzfi Uss couldn't help wondering what kind of medicine was sold in Justinian Gourd. It could be said that he hadn't seen this boy thoroughly after spending so long with Justinian.

   I don’t know what else you hide, Justinian! Muzfius muttered to himself in his heart, but his intuition still made him choose to believe in Justinian. For now, he has no reason to betray himself.

   And Dekulin was about to stand up and explain to the Czaroyan for Justinian, but he was caught off guard by what Justinian said next.

"It is not true. I am a member of the resistance army in the city, so I know these things." Justinian admitted his identity openly. There is no need to lie at this time, but he still hides Muzfiu. Not to mention that the two people may have made old accounts when Bulgaria became independent. If the czar thinks that strange goods can live in, then he is completely making wedding dresses for others.

"You participated in the resistance of attacking the Latins with Greek fire." Although not much is known, Kaloyan has also heard about it. It is precisely because the knights of Thessalonika were burned to death by the Greeks that he was able to rely on his advantage. The cavalry defeated the Latin army.

"It's my command." Justinian burst into laughter when he said it. Almost all Bolgar nobles felt that this young man was completely nonsense, because he was able to command the army to severely damage the Latin knights. Even Ivan Asen, who had taken a different look at Justinian, found it unbelievable. However, faced with the ridicule of the Bolgars, Justinian still looked at the Czaroyan in front of him with his usual expression.

   Carloyan didn't think Justinian was bragging like others did. He was surprised by the calmness of the young man himself, and he cared more about the purpose of the young man standing up in front of him.

"Then I think you are not just trying to persuade me not to attack Constantinople?" Kaloyan motioned to the nobles to stop laughing rudely~www.ltnovel.com~ Once again, he looked at the boy in front of him, he vaguely guessed Out of Justinian's purpose, he was unwilling to circumscribe and asked immediately.

And this is exactly what Justinian took in his arms and said his intentions, "If I can, I think I can form an alliance with you on behalf of Epirus against the Latins. Although we have had unpleasantness, we now have a common Isn’t it the enemy of you?"

   Justinian’s actions exceeded everyone's expectations, including Muzfius, even though he knew Justinian should have any intentions, he did not expect this young man to be so bold to do such a thing with tigers.

"It's very interesting, but why do you have the qualification to decide the feud between the two countries? Are you kidding me?" Caroyan showed a cold expression and pulled out the long sword from his waist and pointed it at Justin. Suddenly, the atmosphere dropped to freezing point, and the Bolgar nobles also showed smirking expressions. If Justinian did not give a reasonable answer, he would die without a place to bury him.

   Suddenly, even if the caravan nodded with Justinian, it couldn't help but get nervous.

   "Grand Duke Ivan, you promised our safety." Deculin looked at Ivan Assen for help

But Ivan Assen also found it difficult for a while. He did not expect that Justinian would actually say such things. Epirus was the most powerful autocratic monarchy in the Roman Empire no less than Bulgaria. The country has always had grievances, even if Justinian is really the resistance army, how can it represent the will of a huge kingdom.

But Justinian still said calmly: "As long as you give me a chance to go to Epirus, I can do it. And the Tsar, are you willing to seize this opportunity?" He stared at the opponent's pair closely. His eyes didn't evade in the slightest, waiting for the answer from the other party.
