Chapter 47: Mutiny and Battle

"Are you the ones guarding the treasury here?" A Pronian officer looked at the militia guarding the door with contemptuous eyes and shouted, with a look of not taking it seriously. Behind him were almost dozens of personal guards, fully armed and well-equipped, and at first glance they were the elite among the elite.

Faced with the other party's arrogant attitude, the Latins were so arrogant that they dared not show off. They knew that the Pronian officer in front of them was actually a noble class like the European knights. If the other party wanted, they could kill them at any time. The Latins, who were so arrogant that they dared not show off, quickly stammered: "Yes...yes, that's... here, sir!"

It seems that the other party should be the Byzantines who are responsible for receiving the treasury, and these militiamen do not want to offend the other party at all.

The officer Pronia, who got the confirmed answer, inadvertently showed a cruel smile. It's very good that's it! He was not the one sent by Justinian to receive the treasury, but in fact he got the order of General Zeodosefalon to pick up the pass.

I was uneasy all the way, but fortunately he finally rushed over before the person sent by Justinian to receive the reception. At this time, the person who was actually responsible for receiving the treasury might have been delayed on the way...

As long as the fire burns here, Justinian's attempt to achieve his grand plans in Molia will be shattered. They are Zeodosephalon's confidants and have already had a conflict with Justinian, so they simply do not stop.

"Open the door!" Seeing that these stupid Latin militias were still treating themselves as the recipient, the Plonian officer did not speak out and immediately ordered him to open the door of the granary.

But these Latin militia said in panic: "This... sir... the key is already in your hands!" The keys to the important places were in the hands of Sir Baptist and handed them over to Justinian with the surrender this morning, but they did not. Until then, these Latin people had not thought that the people in front of them were not sent by Justinian.

But the next moment, the officer Pronian in front of him suddenly pulled out the sword at his waist and shouted: "Listen to everyone, the Latins conspired to ambush the imperial soldiers, refused to surrender and tried to set fire to the granary of the treasury. Everyone should kill me!" The face change in an instant made the Latin soldiers guarding the door completely unexpected. They thought that the war was over, and even if there was any accident, they would not fall on their heads so by chance. However, the murderous Byzantines in front of them clearly showed that the visitor was not good.

They wanted to pick up the weapon but had no courage. The trembling people could only watch the fierce and long sword in the hands of the officer Pronya, and sat down and completely gave up resistance...

...

...

...

At the same time, on the other side of the castle, the people sent by Justinian to receive the treasury were stopped halfway, and an accident almost caused the city of Karama to be in chaos.

But even so, the Latins and Byzantines who gave up their resistance were at a strife.

The cause of everything was that several Byzantine soldiers ignored Justinian's order and rushed into the houses of Latin civilians and robbed property and raped the woman. Such actions undoubtedly angered the militia leader. The conflict broke out between the two sides until Justinian and his people arrived at the scene in person, but the two sides were almost fighting each other.

"What's going on?" Justinian's majestic voice suppressed the soldiers' commotion, and the Turkic cavalry behind him also made the militia tremble slightly. Both sides who were contained for a moment did not dare to act rashly.

But the militia leader still plucked up his courage and said, "I am the militia leader Ali Condor here. Is this how you fulfill your promise?" Pointing to the civilians bullied by Byzantine soldiers, Ali Condor has already made his promise. Since the knights and men in Achaia can no longer count on it, they can only share the same hatred of the enemy.

Justinian, who had roughly understood the situation, was about to comfort him, but at this time, a Plonian officer next to him suddenly stood up and shouted: "Radiotic Latin, do you dare to talk to the Governor? Don't you want to live? Lock them all for me."

After saying that, the guards behind him who were already ready to fight, surrounded them. It was a piece of cake to deal with these militias with poor equipment and vulnerable combat power.

And just then Justinian shouted: "Stop it all - Oleg asks all your people to retreat!"

Watching all this coldly, Justinian certainly understood the principle of being both a traitor or a thief without any reason. It was obvious that Oleg was one of the officers who fiercely opposed him at the combat meeting, but now he took the initiative to stand up to safeguard his "majesty", which was obviously not out of good intentions. If he really satisfies his efforts to appease Karamai City will be in vain. This is the key place connecting the horn of Tyna Long. Justinian is unwilling to have a sharp knife in his back. And once he conflicts with the militia and the situation is chaotic, I am afraid that the other party will still want to do something secretly.

The officer in front of him did this with ulterior motives. How could Justinian let the other party succeed?

Tsk—

He secretly complained in his heart that when the man saw Justinian shouting back his soldiers, he had to give up this opportunity, but he still said respectfully: "Since you said that, Governor, please forgive them for the time being!"

Justinian ignored this vain and looked at the family who was humiliated by the soldiers and was sobbing and accepting the comfort of the people around him. He understood that if this matter was not properly resolved, these Latin people would never give up, which he did not want to see.

It seems that Zeodosefalon is really not ready to give up! Justinian sneered in his heart, without investigating, and blatant disobeying his orders, which only means that there is someone behind him.

Then Justinian shouted without hesitation: "Who did it? Come out!"

The cold and decisive voice stinged people's eardrums. The young governor was angry, and everyone was inexplicably shocked.

"It was him, we caught him on the spot, and then the adults led the people to say we were trying to riot!" Seeing Justinian's attitude, the militia leader, who was slightly relieved, pointed at the Plonian officer before and ordered people to bring a Byzantine soldier tied up to Justinian.

When the soldier saw Oleg beside Justinian, he said as if he had seen a savior: "Save me quickly, Lord Oleg, I'm just following you..."

But halfway through the words, the panicked soldier immediately realized his mistake and hurriedly stopped, but Oleg's face was already ashen.

But Justinian looked at Oleg in a slightly leisurely tone and asked, "Is this your soldier, Lord Oleg?"

Faced with the questioning of Justinian's needle hidden in the cotton, Oleg also looked ugly. He didn't expect that his subordinates would be so useless. He would be caught as soon as he did something, and he called out his name at this time. Oleg nodded in panic and said, "It's indeed my subordinate, but I definitely didn't ask him to do such a thing!" At this time, he had to immediately clear his relationship, anyway, he had delayed the time, so he couldn't put the handle in Justinian's hands.

However, as soon as this sentence was spoken, Oleg realized that he had revealed a flaw, and Justinian did not ask if it was his command.

"Oh, is it? But I have never doubted you. Why do you have to be nervous? You'll be cleared up so quickly?" Justinian sneered.

"I...I don't mean that, Lord Justinian!" Oleg was about to explain, but Justinian didn't want to listen at all.

Instead, he walked to the soldier who was tied up, "Is he the only one?"

"Yes, he was the only one when we arrived. We were about to slip away and we were caught." Ali Sandro replied. If someone had not reported the news before, they would have been unable to get both the stolen goods. Unfortunately, they still failed to prevent the tragedy in time. A beautiful girl was defiled and her parents were also seriously injured.
