"Achaia... you are crazier than I thought." Nevsky murmured. At this time, the Latins in Peloponnese were just like Michael of Epirus at the height of his power.

Il was also fearful. Although he tried many times to regain Athens, he ultimately failed. This is enough to prove the unique strength of the Latin army. Especially the Achaean princes in the south were defeated with a very small number of troops.

The Roman army that was ten times his own was enough to prove its strength, but Justinian had already targeted the Achaean princes, so that Nevsky was actually a little shocked.

But the man quickly regained his composure, "But what does that have to do with rescuing His Majesty Muzfius?"

"You can't hope to deal with Mikhail without enough power, or even Theodore in Agrinion. It's that simple. And when His Majesty Muzfius gave this thing to me, it was this

Meaning." Justinian took out the gold ring he carried with him again, and remembered the instructions the man gave him before leaving. Although he didn't know whether what Muziphius said was true, he decided to try

one time.

"Is this what His Majesty Muzfius meant...?" Nevsky suddenly stood up from his chair with a slight start.

"Indeed, this is what Muzphius entrusted to me and I will never forget it. As for whether you believe me or not, it all depends on you, Lord Nevsky." After saying this, Justinian decided not to say anything more.

Turning to leave the tavern, he had other things to deal with.

Looking at Justinian's back, Nevsky suddenly said: "I can trust you again, so what can I help you with?"

…

…

…

Agrinion, an army was rushing back. It was Theodore's general Zeodor Cephalon who led the army back from the southern battlefield. At this time, Epirus and Bulgaria had already

It kicked off the decisive battle with Boniface, so the war had already begun on both the northern and southern fronts.

The so-called Romania founded by the Latin trespassers was actually modeled after the Frankish fiefdoms. Therefore, the first thing to do if you want to regain Constantinople is to cut off its wings. And those European feudal lords, large and small in the south,

It became a target.

The first is Thessaloniki, the second largest city in the empire, which became the fiefdom of Boniface and established the powerful Kingdom of Thessalonica, which has always been a huge threat to Epirus. Together with Athens in the south

and the principality of Achaia, whose strength should not be underestimated.

But it is also true that only by destroying it can we talk about regaining Constantinople. Mikhail paid a high price to convince his brother Theodor to attack the southern region, while he was preparing to fight with Bulgar

They joined forces to defeat Boniface, the enemy of the empire. So two months ago, Theodore agreed to his brother's request and sent 000 Turkic cavalry and 000 heavy infantry to attack Athens, but unfortunately there was no

Return with success.

At this time, the Agrinion army, which had experienced a fierce battle, was about to return to the city to prepare for repairs.

"City of Athens... damn Latins!" The siege lasted for nearly two months, but the city defense of Athens was much more difficult to deal with than he imagined. Zeodore Cephalon couldn't help but feel annoyed. Such casualties were really not worth the gain.

And now I have no shame when I go back.

"It seems that you are very distressed, Lord Zeodose." A slightly mocking voice came from his ears, which angered the man even more.

Looking at the expressionless Turk named Murad, Theodor was even more furious and finally suppressed it. In the previous siege, these Turks actually directly refused his order to attack the city.

I have to go back and file a complaint no matter what.

But his intention was seen through by Murad, and he said coldly: "I know what you want to do, but I'm afraid you will only ask for trouble even if you say it. Your Excellency Zeodor Cephalon."

"You...you arrogant Turk!" Zeodor Cephalon gritted his teeth and said, "Don't forget, I am the commander of this battle. If you don't obey my orders, you will be punished by the count."

Please punish me, my lord!"

"Punishment? Are you kidding? Even if there is any punishment, you should think about your situation, Falon." A sarcastic look appeared on Murad's face.

"you……"

Seeing the opponent's expression of wanting to cut himself into pieces, Murad continued calmly: "Don't forget, my army can only play its greatest role when fighting in the plains. Capturing the city is simply a waste of us.

The blood left behind. What’s more, if you hadn’t been drunk that day, we wouldn’t have missed the opportunity to raid. Am I right, Your Excellency Zeodor Cephalon?”

As soon as these words came out, the general who was gritting his teeth was speechless. He looked at the Turkic man in front of him in surprise and stammered: "You...how did you know?"

"It's better to worry about your own situation at this time, General." The Turkic man patted his shoulder and laughed proudly and led his people into the city gate of Agrinion first.

…

No one in Theodore's private office room can disturb this man. He has never left Agrinion since he failed in the battle for Epirus with his brother. This is almost a kind of paranoia.

"Dong dong"

At this time, there was a knock on the door. There must be something important again, and Theodor immediately put down what he was busy with.

"Come in, Hendril, I think you have taken care of everything."

Sure enough, it was Hendryl, Count Theodore's secretary, who opened the door and rushed back immediately after finishing his work.

"Your Majesty, everything is going well, please rest assured." Hendril reported respectfully, "I just don't know if Master Romanus is back?"

"What's wrong with him?" Frowning slightly, Theodore guessed that something must have happened again. He has always been worried about this only son, even though he will definitely be his heir in the future, but in terms of ability,

It was really not enough. Looking at Hendril's expression, he suddenly guessed that his son must have done something inappropriate again.

"Please rest assured. Although there was almost a conflict between Master Romanus and that Justinian, fortunately I stopped it in time and it was no big deal. That boy Justinian agreed to your invitation, Count.

"Hendril did not want to embarrass his master too much, so he quickly changed the subject and told Theodor in front of him about his trip to Ilovan Castle.

And Theodor Dukas nodded with a look of satisfaction on his face: "Well, you did a good job, but what do you think of this boy named Justinian, and whether he can do it for me."

What is it used for?" At this point, there was a hint of murderous intent in the man's words for a moment, which the keen Hendril immediately noticed, and what he said next might mean deciding the life or death of the young man.
