Chapter 30 Premeditated Assassination

With a plop, the strong man fell to the ground, and a feather arrow was inserted on his back and directly took his life. Baron Isaac was only a little bit away to assassinate Justinian, but he

But he failed and paid his life as a price.

The frightened Justinian didn't see until then that Arslan, holding the bow and arrow, standing not far from him. It turned out that he also saw Justinian in the chaotic crowd. He rushed over and then came in time.

The earth rushed over and saved Justinian's life.

"Are you okay, Lord Justinian?" Arslan ran up and asked, helping Justinian, who had almost lost his mobility. If he had been late, the boy in front of him would have become.

There is a corpse.

Justinian gave him a blank look at Isaac who was lying on the ground and said, "This guy asked me that way just now."

"But the difference is that he is here to kill you, and I save you when I come, Lord Justinian." Arslan shrugged slightly, and they had a relaxed feeling on the battlefield,

They started joking with each other, and then both young people laughed.

But Justinian immediately curled his smile, squatted down and turned over Isaac who was lying on the ground. He was not killed by an arrow, and he still breathed a sigh of relief. Justinian didn't think he had any personal grudges with this guy.

, Then there is only one explanation, that is, the man in front of him was instructed by someone to assassinate him. Who would it be? Justinian was not sure, because in this small Fort Wiscari

There were so many strange things that he had already made accustomed to saying who wanted to get rid of himself and get faster. There were definitely not one or two people in the city who had an idea. But he still had to make sure that he was hiding in the darkness.

Who is the person? With Isaac's status, he is just a knife in the hands of others.

"Who instructed you to do this?" Justinian looked at the other party. Although the Baron Isaac was almost dead, he still had to try it, because there would always be people who would do everything to survive. The young man was condescending, using

A cold and harsh voice asked. At this moment, his temperament completely changed. This was what Justinian had innately. He could adjust his state at any time, and even Arslan on the side felt

When it comes to Justinian's invisible pressure, he looks like a person who truly holds authority.

"Assassinate the Governor of the Empire, even if you are a nobleman who attempts to murder Molia's Governor, it is enough to deprive your family of glory! Tell me who is behind you? Otherwise you can't bear the price." Justinian knew that he would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would

The best way for a dead man is to threaten what he still misses. The most important thing for a noble is the inheritance of the family. With Justinian's current identity, it is of course easy to deal with a small noble like Isaac.

And such a threat was indeed effective. When Isaac heard what Justinian said, dying, nodded with all his strength and expressed his willingness to agree to Justinian's conditions. He was just a small person who was ordered to act, but was seriously injured and in danger.

He could no longer open his mouth.

Just as Justinian couldn't help frowning, Isaac struggled to point a hand at a man riding a war horse in the army not far away, but this also exhausted his last trace of life.

Give his last breath.

"It's him!"

Following the direction Isaac pointed, the person riding on the horse was nothing but Leosgros who was commanding the army.

Justinian and Arslan looked at each other at the same time. Isaac's actions before his death could only point the suspicion to one person, that is Leosgros, but this undoubtedly made Justinian

Somewhat unexpectedly, he didn't expect that the man was behind the scenes. Leosgros was obviously trying to win over him before, but now he is trying to kill him on the battlefield regardless of consequences.

Did the other party have already noticed the deal between him and Anastasius? Or did the Baron Isaac deliberately mislead him?

Justinian did not make arbitrary judgment. The boy's eyes were filled with solemnity, but now was no longer the time to care about these things. Justinian and Arslan must withdraw back to the city as soon as possible.

Because the Venetian reinforcements had already come.

Although the Venetian vanguards suffered heavy casualties, most of the Venetians' main forces were still there. If they continue to persevere, the Byzantine army would be at risk of being surrounded and annihilated by the other side. The Byzantine soldiers at the city gate immediately retreated to the city and went up to the top of the city to prepare for battle.

Although the enemy's forwards made these Byzantine soldiers feel high morale, they are still afraid of the Venetians who have captured Constantinople, especially when they see the huge tower ships approaching them

.No castle city is indestructible. Even if Constantinople were finally captured by the Latins from the sea wall? Similarly, the side facing the sea of ​​Fort Wiscarri is their life gate.

But the Venetians were also suffering at this time. Although Justinian's Greek fire did not cause them to lose most of them, it also caused them to suffer a significant blow, especially the warships used to attack the city walls.

The burning of the ground is almost done.

"I'm afraid I can't attack force now, Lord Ranieri, most of the siege equipment on our warships has been burned by the other party." The officers on the side finally couldn't stand it anymore, and wanted to stop their commanders from going their own way.

The Byzantines had successfully retreated to the city with their troops. The people who were originally responding to the city should have been in danger. Since the other party is ready, it is no longer a wise decision to continue the attack.

Especially since the large number of siege equipment on the warships before were burned by Greece, the attack is too difficult now.

However, Ranieri shouted, "I have made up my mind. If we can't take this city, will we have no place to stand after we go back? Listen to my command to attack with all our strength." At this moment, the man seemed to have fallen into madness.

Zhong, under his cold eyes, the middle subordinates also looked pale, because the adult in front of them was completely like a gambler who lost all his family and wanted to make a comeback, but this was exactly the most taboo thing.

"Cater, crossbow preparation!"

Under the order of Ranieri's almost forced force, the generals on the Venetian warship gave the order helplessly, and the asphalt barrel burning with fire was immediately shot towards the water gate defense array of Fort Wiscarri. (Unfinished to wait).
