Eagle Flag of Epirus

"This is—" Looking at these Qin inspectors, Justinian's eyes were also a little confused. Theodore promised only three hundred Turkic cavalry as aids, but how did these Qin inspectors respond? thing?

Arslan, who came to see the doubt in Justinian’s heart, shrugged and said, "My father asked me to take them. These Qincha people had escaped from the civil war in the northern tribe and were taken in by us. Yes. Although they don’t wear well like a group of homeless men, they are all excellent fighters. With them, I think you should be more confident in your next actions, and at the same time, you can also calm Zeodo Cephalon. Those guys!"

And after listening to Arslan’s words, Justinian immediately understood Murad’s meaning. Don’t look at the appearance of these people in ragged clothes and not even a horse, but they are indeed powerful. Of the warriors, the Qincha people are not actually a nation, but an ethnic group. They are generally referred to as a nomadic tribe in the vast Siberian region of Central Asia. Their ancestry has long been unverifiable. For example, the Kumans who have been troubled by the empire are the Qincha people. One of the tribes, they use compound bows and swords, adopt a Parthian tactical style, and come and go like wind. They are not only excellent archers but also natural light cavalry, no less than Turkic people on horseback. With this army that he can directly control, then he also has the basics and confidence to suppress Zeodo Cephalon.

But what Justinian couldn’t understand was why Murad did this. He didn’t think that the friendship between the two sides a few months ago could make these Turkic people who value more interests dared to offend Theodor to help themselves. .

Obviously, even if he asked the other party, I was afraid that he would get no results. Justinian accepted the help of the Turks and arranged the army to be stationed in the surrounding camps. But what worries him is these nomads. He didn't want the Ilovan Castle he had run to be destroyed. Justinian immediately asked Abdela to order the people below not to have any conflicts with the Chincha people.

At the same time, Agrignon, the holiday celebration of St. Valentine's Day ended, the whole city seemed exhausted, everything died down, but in the earl’s mansion, the man made of steel was still observing the south. On the sand table in front of us is the distribution of the various forces in the entire Peloponnese. The situation in the south has not improved at all. On the contrary, it can be said to be easy to defend and hard to attack because of the establishment of a Latin-style castle. . This invention during the Crusades has made a huge change in the mode of warfare. A strong fortress castle can withstand thousands of troops with a small number of troops. This is why Zeodoro Cephalon is in an advantageous situation. The reason why the city of Athens still cannot be shared.

　　 And then there was a soft knock on the door.

"Come in, Hendriel." From his habit of knocking on the door, Count Theodor heard at once that he was his secretary outside. He had sent someone to come to him for something. He didn't expect him to be so. It's coming soon.

　　 "What's the matter?" As soon as he entered the door, Theodor saw that Hendry's face was obviously wrong, and something else had happened.

"My Lord Earl, that person's body disappeared last night." Hendlier, who was worried, obviously still had some lingering fears. The body he said was of course the one killed by Justinian in the arena. The body of the warrior A, they did not immediately bury it but temporarily placed it in the underground sarcophagus of the church in Agrinion, but it disappeared overnight. Hearing this news, Earl Theodor's face also showed a slight dignity, but this was also in his expectation, but the movements of those people were too fast.

　　 "Forget it, what was expected, there are other more important things now." Theodor waved his hand, although he was afraid of the power hidden in the dark, but he was not in a panic.

　　 "Is it about the war in the south?" Looking at the sand table on the table and the map on the wall, Hendryer immediately understood what Earl Theodor meant. It seems that this man is really ready to use force against the Principality of Athens and the Marquis of Achaia.

But Hendriel had to worry about Justinian. His subordinates were a very mixed team. There were Roman troops and Turkic mercenaries, plus the Normans hired by Justinian himself. Don’t say go. The offensive has become a climate of Achaia, even if crossing the sea into the Peloponnese and letting the army obey it is a huge challenge.

"Then you are going to let Justinian attack Achaia as a guise to attract the attention of the Latins, so as to take the opportunity to attack their backs?" Hendriel asked tentatively, even though he had been following this man for many years. But he can't guarantee that he can figure out the other party's mind. If that is the case, Justinian and the others will be in a very bad situation, and they are likely to become abandoned children. If that is the case, it will be very different from their own intentions~www.wuxiaspot.com~ But Theodore But he did not admit or deny, but said: "Yes, it is not, it can be regarded as my last test for that kid, if he can do it." He has indeed moved such thoughts to make Justin. Nei took the army to attack the Peloponnese to attract the attention of the Latins, but that meant that the army would be wiped out. All these thousand people were his own private soldiers, and Zeodoro Cephalon was also his servant. Chen, if he fails this time, it will be a great loss to his strength. This made the man had to hesitate, whether he wanted to take a gamble, or believe that Justinian could really give himself an unexpected surprise. If the Moria Military Region is included in his sphere of influence, then he has no choice but to fight against his brother.

　　 "Then we..."

"Let’s stay here for now, and don’t let the Latins guess our intentions. Let’s wait and see for a while. If Justinian is really unbearable, I have previously told Zeodore Cephalon to take away his military power if necessary. , The loyalty of those thousand heavy infantry soldiers can be guaranteed by my private soldiers. As for those Turkic people, there are only a few people who can’t make it into a climate. When necessary, I have other ways to deal with that kid. Okay, I There are other things, you go down first!" Theodore had already made a decision, and now that he had made two-handed preparations, the man didn't worry about anything anymore.

"Yes, Lord Earl." Hendry lowered his head knowingly, turned and left, and arranged the things arranged by Theodore, but his robe was already soaked with sweat. It was obvious that Justinian's trip was already there. The bad luck was less, but he knew he couldn't be exposed, and then left Theodor's room without saying a word.
