Eagle Flag of Epirus

Vol 2 Chapter 35: The rebirth of Ilovan Castle

   In 1205, under Justinian's final efforts, the Turkic mutiny in Agrinion was prevented. Theodor did not even notice that such a thing happened under his nose. According to the agreement between the two parties, Justinian did not tell Theodor what had happened, and Murad accepted Justinian's employment as a price.

   It's just that Justinian didn't give the Turkic people any task, but let them continue to be stationed in Ilovan Fort. In the next month, the land was finally able to gradually recover in a safe environment.

Due to the tyrannical rule of the Latins in Constantinople at this time, a large number of Greeks fled to Epirus, so that some places were already overcrowded, but Justinian did not worry about this at all. Now he needs the most. It is the people. Ilovan Fort, which was specially given preferential policies, quickly attracted a large number of refugees, making Ilovan Fort, which had been in depression a long time ago, also revitalized.

"Your Excellency Justinian, you have distributed them the fields and houses according to each household." Leo reported the situation to Justinian with some excitement. In his middle age, others didn't expect to see Ilovan Castle. One day he could prosper, and he finally understood why Justinian inspected the land that could be cultivated before.

   "Well, what's going on in the village?" Justinian nodded and asked.

   "It's all arranged, please don't worry, are the rest of the people all arranged in the castle?"

   "Of course, the following things will work hard for you." After all, this castle is the most important to Justinian, and it is too wasteful to be a garrison.

Leo, who was entrusted by Justinian, nodded. He understood what Justinian meant. Of course, this castle will be the core here. Of course, it can't be run down as before. As long as there is enough labor, everything will be fine. It's not a problem.

The first point is digging wells. It is only the first priority in the castle. By then, dozens of households cannot expect to live on the same well. You must know that they almost run out of ammunition and food in order to avoid pirates. Now there are more people. Not to be careless.

"Understood, Lord Justinian, this matter is left to me." Leo promised, now that the refugees are coming to find a place to find refuge, there is no shortage of people to help, and Yiluo The walls of Phamburg need to be strengthened. Fortunately, Ilovanburg is a large mountain to the north. You can go to the surrounding mountains to gather the necessary stones. Logging is also very convenient, and it is not a big expense.

Calculating the cost of funds, Justinian nodded in his heart. Although a lot of money was spent this month, there is still some surplus of wealth left to him by Alex III. It is impossible to take away the mosaics and ancients. Selling art to those Italians should still be able to get a lot of wealth to keep him going, but that might be a threat to reveal his identity. Justinian would not choose to do that as a last resort.

"Master Justinian." At this moment, another middle-aged man came over. It was Abdra, who had just recovered from his injury. After a month of meticulous training, he finally recovered and looked at Yiluo, who was already completely new. In Fanbao, Abdra was also in a daze for a while.

"Mr. Abdela, why did you come out? Didn't you tell me not to come out!" Justinian was a little helpless, he repeatedly asked Abdela to take a good rest, to the elder who had saved his life. He respected and thanked him from the bottom of his heart. It can be said that this month's construction is inseparable from the guidance of this man. After all, Justinian still does not know the land better than him.

"Although I am old, I still have to come out and exercise my muscles and bones after all to see if I can help Your Excellency Justinian more." Abdera said solemnly, and he has been deeply blamed for being seriously injured by the Turkic invasion. He couldn't sleep, but Justinian's performance really did not disappoint him, and even greatly exceeded his expectations. The castle is completely undergoing a rebirth.

  ……

In the castle, the training of the army has also been on the right track. Under Justinian’s strict orders, there is no slack. Soldiers are urged to practice basic intensity almost every day, selected from refugees. The young and middle-aged are also replenishing fresh blood for the defenders of Ilovan Fort.

   I saw that the soldiers in the castle were full every day. I believed that their physical condition was completely suitable for the next military training. Justinian took them in to train them into an extremely powerful army, and today Justinian took Abdera to take a look at the results of the month.

   Justinian looked at them one by one, and all of these young people stood neatly and finally did not stray like they used to be, and they had some basic military appearance.

   Looking at this scene, Abdela couldn't help feeling sigh. As a veteran, he certainly understood that the sergeant who had not been strictly trained was a mob, but this is not easy. First of all, the most basic queue takes a long time to train. But Justinian succeeded in doing it~www.ltnovel.com~ At least the current army is no longer the scum of the previous pirates.

"Valence, it's time for me to see if you have made any progress." Justinian shouted at Valence below from the top of the city, and now Valence has also been promoted by him to a junior officer in charge. Drill the team.

The most basic rewards and punishments show that Justinian still knows. Although Valence was fined for ten days of confinement, as a reward for his bravery in combat, Justinian hired him out of order, making Valence so grumpy. The stabbing head who does not obey orders is also willing to be driven by Justinian.

   "Yes, Lord Justinian, please give me your instructions first." Valence said when he saw Justinian hurriedly and respectfully. It was the first time for his recruits to see their lord so close, and everyone was very surprised that the officer was so young.

   Justinian nodded, he really wanted to get acquainted with these recruits.

"I don't think I need to introduce myself anymore. Although I am a year or two younger than many of you, my command as a chief is above all else. I hope you all understand this." Justin Ni glanced at everyone below with cold eyes and continued,

"I know that most of you have to stay away from your hometown because of the Latins, but I have to tell you one thing, I don't take in you wine and rice bags, I want you to become warriors fighting for the country. If so. If you don’t have this awareness, don’t waste food in my place, understand it!”

Justinian’s harsh words sounded through the entire castle, and there was no sound for a while. All the soldiers had a feeling of breathlessness. They did not expect this young man to have such a momentum, and this is precisely what Justinian did. The effect sought.
