Eagle Flag of Epirus

Vol 6 Chapter 72: conceited

"Is that what I said, uncle?" Looking at the angry King Boniface, the Marquis of Dennister had already guessed it. At the beginning of the siege of the Bulgarian army, they sent people from the sea to Constantine. Dinburgh and the Venetian colonial strongholds asked for help, and at this time there should be news from the sea.

It is by no means good news that Boniface himself can be so angry and disoriented. Obviously the attitudes of the two towards sending troops to rescue are not happy, even if it is Constantinople who has a relationship between lips and teeth, only if Henry of Flanders should pay a price that his uncle cannot accept, it will incur. The man is so angry. Dennister didn't say anything, but waited quietly, knowing that the king's anger on the throne in front of him was gradually dissipating, and then he slowly began to speak:

"Uncle, even no matter how irritable we are now, it will not help to solve the current dilemma we are facing. Instead of this, it is better to consider the next countermeasure for the time being!"

"The countermeasure... the key is what countermeasures should be taken. Without reinforcements, it is almost impossible to contact the siege of Thessaloniki. If this continues, we have no chance of winning. You should know better than me, I My child, how many people in the back are thinking about our piece of fat." Boniface said with a sneer, very realistically, quite a bit self-defeating.

"But now, the enemy is going deep alone. As long as we can deal with it, there may be a turning point."

"There is no turning point. If the people in Constantinople and Venice stand idly by, which of the vassals who were willing to be loyal to me in the first place can count on, I am afraid they are all watching, maybe waiting. I died in the hands of the Greeks or Bolgars to carve up my inheritance. Sure enough, they are a bunch of **** white-eyed wolves."

The man with a frustrated face slammed his fist on the throne next to him, and said angrily.

And this situation he fell down from the beginning. Although he was a **** king in name, this crown had no weight among the Western nations. On the surface, he was second only to Baldwin in the dismemberment of the Roman Empire. A good place, but the original Crusaders in his fief came from France. In places like Germany, they can't say how loyal to themselves, an Italian, as aristocrats. It is evident that the princes of Achaia and the Principality of Athens became independent from his hands.

Now Thessaloniki is under siege, and there is no movement from the other nobles around. Maybe the group of ungrateful guys are already planning to vote for others.

The more he thinks about it, the more resentful he feels, Boniface is completely lost-in fact, this is the second thing. The most frightening in his heart is that both Constantinople and the Venetians have not responded to his request for help. Even though he expressed his willingness to open the Gulf of Thessaloniki as a commercial bank to the Venetians and agreed to pay tribute to Romania, both of them were still unmoved. This made him feel uneasy. When he captured Constantinople, due to the uneven distribution of interests, he almost fought against the two, and his relationship with Venice in the northern Italian fiefdom Monfila had always been incorrect. When Baldwin was captured by Bulgaria, he even looted the border to add fuel to the fire. It is conceivable how much the two sides are celebrating...but they shouldn't be able to do this. I tried to comfort myself in my heart, but the vague and ominous premonition had haunted him.

Boniface, who shook his head severely and put the annoying things behind his head, trying to restore his composure, looked at his nephew and asked, "How is the situation on your side? The defense on the first day should come. It won’t be easy. The first offensive of the Greeks and Bolgars with high morale must have exhausted you too, my child.” The stabilized man asked as cheerfully as possible. He will defend today. I gave it all to Dennister not only to believe in his abilities but also to exercise his nephew.

"Everything is as expected. The enemy should only be feigning temptation. When the casualties reached a certain level, they chose to retreat. It's just..."

"It's just what?" Seeing that there was something wrong with Dennister's expression, Boniface was also slightly taken aback. Since he didn't go to command himself, he didn't know how the battle was going, although the new trebuchet used by the enemy did make He was surprised, but looking at the appearance of his nephew, there seemed to be something hidden.

He only heard Dennister’s answer and expressed his worries, “The rest is nothing to worry about. As long as we stand firm and clear the country, the enemy will have no alternative but to win the walls of Thessaloniki for a while~www.ltnovel.com~ just The only thing I worry about is the little fox of Moria."

"The little fox of Moria? You mean the man named Justinian." Boniface has certainly heard about the fall of the Achaia and the Principality of Athens, and the "culprit" caused all this. Justinian, he is certainly no stranger.

"You mean he is in charge of this attack today?!" Boniface, who was slightly surprised, immediately reacted and asked quickly. The Marquis Dennister in front of him almost nodded to confirm this fact to his uncle.

"Today's first fight is indeed a well-deserved reputation. Maybe this person will be the worst enemy we face by then."

"Is it really this serious?" Seeing that his most trusted nephew warned so solemnly, Boniface couldn't help but frown, but he quickly left it behind, angrily Looking at Dennister and asking, "Morlia’s little fox is just a farce sung by those useless French guys to cover their fiasco. The Greeks are not a threat at all. The important thing is Bulgar! You have too much heart, Dennister, these things are not important now, what is important is how to deal with the Bulgars outside the city. As long as they are eliminated, everything can be solved."

Although it is not completely dismissive, the current predicament of Thessaloniki is the most troublesome thing for Boniface, and this man is still immersed in the invincible world that captured Constantinople in his heart. He didn't really take "Morlia's little fox" Justinian into his heart, and even looked down on the fighting power of his defeated Roman army. What he didn't know was that all this would cause him a huge mistake that was irreparable, and would eventually make this one of the three great crusaders who participated in the dismemberment of the Roman Empire pay the price of blood.
