The news of such an enemy's accidental death first reached Emperor Henry's ears, and he was also very surprised at that time. It was a pity that his brother Baldwin I was blinded by Carlohan and tortured to death was completely unable to avenge the revenge. However, there was another regret that Emperor Henry also felt regretful - that was that he had lost a great opportunity to weaken Bonifas. This was the reason why Henry himself had not responded to the other party's request for help. He originally wanted to use the Bulgarians to get rid of Bonifas, and then send troops to rescue him so that he could take the opportunity to take the city of Thessalonika, but now it seems that the rebellious guy has escaped.

But since Emperor Henry has eliminated a huge threat without any effort, he is now satisfied, so he will have no worries about the remnants of the Byzantine Empire next.

"So your majesty, do we still need to rescue Thessalonika City now?"

He had also seen what Emperor Henry thought, and the nobles on the side also asked tentatively.

Henry also shook his head decisively, "Of course there is no need for this. Since the most threatening Bulgarian army has been evacuated, the Greek army that is still in Macedonia is not worth worrying. With Bonifas' own strength, it is enough to deal with it."

"What your Majesty said."

Seeing that their emperor had already expressed his opinion, the nobles nodded and said yes. But everyone could see that Emperor Henry was still thinking of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight. The combat effectiveness of the Greek army was not worth mentioning, but it would also cause the Kingdom of Thessalonika to suffer certain losses. And if Epirus was in full swing, Bonifas would have to choose to become a vassal of the Roman Empire at that time.

Unfortunately, both the Latin nobles and Emperor Henry himself thought everything too optimistically, so they believed that the Roman army surrounding Thessalonika was vulnerable at this moment - but they knew that a storm was brewing and was about to completely change the current pattern of the entire Roman Empire.

...

On the other hand, the Thessalonika defenders, who were fully prepared, finally decided to launch a final attack on the Greek army outside the city that had been reluctant to lift the siege.

In order to prevent accidents, the Latin army did not choose to go out in full swing, but left part of the army to stay in the city. However, this attack was personally commanded by King Bonifas and Marquis Dennister. They were all elite soldiers and generals who attacked Constantinople in the past, and their combat effectiveness can be imagined.

It is obvious that the Latin army also tried to make a final decision, and used the lion to fight the rabbit and use all his strength to completely defeat the vulnerable enemy in their eyes. Such a high-spirited army is indeed a useful army, but it has to be said that such a result is not something Denister himself willing to see. Even though the whole army has made sufficient preparations, many nobles still did not pay enough attention to the enemy, which made the marquis a little uneasy. However, even if he wanted to terminate it, it was too late, because the final decision of the expedition was in the hands of his uncle, King Bonifas.

This brave and famous crusad general never wanted to give up halfway. What he loved the most was to launch an attack like a storm.

This so-called "fox hunting" war has inevitably begun!

...

106 years will undoubtedly be the year that determines the rise and fall of the Roman Empire. In this year, the Roman Empire finally launched a counterattack against the Latin invaders entrenched in the old land of the empire, and the battle between Epirus and Bonifas outside the city of Thessalonica undoubtedly kicked off the magnificent war of restoration.

Before the war began, the Latin army first sent envoys to the Roman army's camp for peace talks, but it was obvious that Thessalonika had no intention of a peaceful solution. Since the arrogant nobles, they directly asked the Roman army to lay down their weapons and surrender, and the Latin army would safely send them out of Macedonia, otherwise a Byzantine soldier would not have thought of fleeing back to Epirus.

However, facing the other party's arrogant words, Justinian, who was in charge of the command, laughed completely and did not take the other party's threat at all. Instead, he ordered his subordinates to send him back with a whip. Justinian used the most direct means to fight back against the enemy's arrogance. This undoubtedly greatly encouraged the morale of the Roman soldiers who were still a little nervous.

The Latin man with an ugly face brought the messenger back and then began the final mobilization before the battle.

But Justinian was still calm at this moment. He led all his troops out of the camp, and went out in full bloom, even burning the camp to prevent the soldiers from taking chances.

Such a decisive decision, even Prince Theodor, who had been through the battlefield for a long time, was shocked. Justinian's doing this means that this war is only allowed to win but not lose. With such a determination, if it weren't for the recognition of Justinian, Theodor Ducas would never think that anyone could be so crazy.

At this moment, the Latin army was finally ready for a decisive battle. Before the military formation, Justinian also drew out his long sword and shouted out the magnificent pre-war declaration:

"My comrades, as you have seen, before us is the Thessalonika who was blasphemed by heresy. If God blessed Rome, as long as we win this victory, history will always remember this moment and the name of every imperial warrior present who fought side by side by side by side by side by side by side by side by side by side by side by side by side by side by side by side. But if we are defeated by cowardice in our hearts, the glory of the empire will always be covered with dust, and our homeland will fall under the barbaric iron hooves, and your relatives and friends will inevitably become slaves. Although the territory of the empire is large, we have no way out. Behind us is a cliff, and only advance is the only way out. May you enter Constantinople with me and regain your glory!"
