Chapter 28 Ambush

"Mr. Christopher, what should we do? There is a group of Turks approaching here now. How about..." Bantic was a little worried about what would happen. After all, the Turks are not kind to each other. Although they are not afraid of each other, they are not afraid of each other.

There is still danger after all.

"Turks? Huh, those Greeks still like to be smart." In Christopher's opinion, the Greeks who hired those pagans were simply stupid.

"So what should we do with the agreement we just made with these Greeks?" Bantic hesitated for a moment, knowing that if this place was looted by those Turks, it would be of little value, so he had to ask for instructions from the people in front of him.

Sir, do you want to help Justinian?

But to Bantic's surprise, Christopher shook his head and said: "Forget it, if this trouble can't be solved, then it seems that that kid Andrea has probably made a mistake."

He had no intention of interfering but wanted to take this opportunity to test what was so different about Justinian.

But this sentence made Bantic complain endlessly. You know, he finally spent a lot of money to find a trade transfer station. If it was stillborn, all the previous efforts would be in vain.

But Bantic didn't dare to have any objection to Christopher's decision at this time.

"Yes, Sir Christopher. But Justinian wanted us to sell those things to him before, so how about..." Bantic suddenly remembered something and reported to Christopher. After all, he still needs to decide on these things.







At this time, all the soldiers inside and outside Ilovan Castle were ready to fight the arrogant Turkic invaders and defend their cherished homeland. Although it had been attacked by pirates before, the castle was under the leadership of Justinian at this time.

It has been completely renewed. The residents share the same hatred and naturally will not allow anyone to trample on their land again.

The new weapons and equipment purchased by Justinian in Agrinion not long ago have been distributed to everyone. At least the soldiers of Ilovan Castle are no longer as vulnerable as before.

It's just that Justinian and other officers knew that their army was actually unable to fight those brave and capable Turks, and they had no chance of winning.

"Lord Justinian, what should we do now?"

"I'm afraid that even if Agrinion learns the news at this time, he may not have time to support us, right?" Justinian frowned and looked at the simple map, which showed the castle and several other places.

The location of the village.

And Leo shook his head with a wry smile and said: "We are not important. In fact, it is the jurisdiction of the Despot Mikhail. It is an enclave. It is impossible to expect reinforcements. Now we can only erect the walls and clear the fields to let the villagers hide in."

Wait inside the castle for these Turks to finish looting."

Although he was very reluctant, it was simply impractical to deal with thousands of Turkic cavalry in the wild. Leo looked at Justinian and waited for him to give the order.

But unexpectedly, a cold smile appeared on Justinian's face.

"Captain Leo, I said before that I will never allow anyone to act recklessly on my territory from now on. Since those Turks want to die so much, I don't mind giving them some color."

With a sudden sound, Justinian pulled out the short knife from his waist and stabbed it hard on the table in front of him, and his eyes seemed to contain thunderous thunder.

"Let everyone prepare their weapons and go out to fight." Justinian issued the combat order, but Leo felt that this order was a crazy decision.

Relying on an army of more than a hundred people to deal with thousands of Turkic soldiers is a fantasy, not to mention they have no cavalry at all.

"But Your Excellency Justinian, in that case...do you want to ask the Genoese for help?" Leo still couldn't believe that Justinian would make such an astonishing move.

But the young man in front of him sneered again: "It's impossible to count on them. I'm afraid they are watching my performance with cold eyes now." At this time, Justinian knew that he could not retreat under any circumstances, otherwise he would be with Genoa.

People's negotiations will undoubtedly become passive. What's more important is that the current Ilovan Castle has been nurtured and grown through hard work, and he will not allow anyone to dare to ravage his land.

"You are joking, Lord Justinian!"

"I'm not kidding, Leo." Justinian looked at the other party calmly and said, "We will defeat those Turks head-on!"







On the other side, the Turkic mercenaries led by Murad did not pay attention to the defenders of Ilovan Castle at all.

Therefore, the first thing sent out was a cavalry squad of nearly a hundred people, which Murad thought was enough.

The Turkic cavalry marched with complete arrogance and did not take the attack seriously at all. The speed was very slow. In the eyes of the Turks, the Greeks had probably hid in the castle and did not dare to come out. They only needed to loot things in a few villages.

That’s it.

Although they did not speed up, the distance allowed them to quickly reach the nearest village. The entrance to the village was deserted and there was no one at all. It seemed that the villagers immediately fled their hometowns and took refuge after learning that they were coming.

.Looking at the abandoned carts scattered at the entrance of the village, it seemed that they were just trying to escape without having time to take them away.

"This is good, it will save you trouble in the future!" the young Turkic man in the lead said to himself as he looked at the deserted village.

"Your Excellency Arslan, can we start?" Although it is just a boring robbery, Theodor has not given them any favors in the past few months, which has really made these Turks extremely restless, and now they also want to take revenge.

Sex gave the Greeks some color to look at.

"It's up to you." Arslan seemed to disapprove of this action. He was the eldest son of Murad, the leader of the Turkic mercenaries. He could be said to be the deputy commander of these people, but he did not support his father's move.

This time I made an impulsive choice.

"Yes!" The Turkic cavalry, who couldn't wait any longer, lit the torches in their hands. They rushed into the village without even warning the surrounding area, grabbed everything and burned it to the ground.

But what no one expected was that when the Turkic cavalry entered the village, they had just dismounted from their horses and were about to search, when the sound of crossbow arrows suddenly tore through the air.

With a "Puff" sound, a Turkic warrior fell down, and a sharp crossbow arrow directly penetrated the armor and penetrated his chest.

What?!

Arslan looked at this sudden scene in shock. He immediately realized that he had walked into the opponent's trap.
