Eagle Flag of Epirus

Vol 5 Chapter 15: Ready to move (on)

"Proactively attack..." Grand Duke Anastasius had a slight shock in his eyes. It turned out that Justinian had been preparing for this for the past month.

"But this time, I am afraid that the Latins will not be so easy to be negligent anymore?" The old man shook his head. Before, Justinian landed from the south and entered the emptied Peloponnese, but now the country of Achaia. He and the Principality of Athens would never dare to be careless. With Tripolis' current strength, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to defeat the other side.

But there was a subtle look on Justinian’s face, calmly looking at Agrinion on the map in front of him, and said: "Of course our strength alone is not enough, and I think Our Royal Highness can definitely help us."

...

...

Agrinion, south of Epirus, is here as the fief of Prince Theodor. Although he is the commander of the southern army, he has always been sitting here to remotely command the war with the prince of Achaia and the Principality of Athens.

However, the surrender of the princes of Achaia and the Principality of Athens did not relax him a little bit. Prince Theodor is like a workaholic rather than a nobleman who concentrates on his official duties. Recently, the Northern Latin Empire and the Kingdom of Thessaloniki united and severely damaged their ally Bulgaria, making this man feel more pressured. The two crusaders who are ready to move will never be indifferent in the face of such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Once they act, his troops stationed in Thessaly will bear the brunt.

"Boom!"

At this moment, there was a soft knock on the door.

"Come in!" Theodore dealt with the matter in front of him, without even lifting his head, he saw his secretary Hendriel pushed open the door of the room and walked into Ali.

"His Royal Highness!"

"It's you, Hendriel, do you have anything to do?" Theodor asked. He knew that this man who had served under him for many years would never disturb him easily when he was dealing with official duties. Obviously he appeared because of something important happened.

"There is an emergency report from Macedonia." Qing Hendriel with a serious look looked at Prince Theodor and replied. The so-called Macedonian provinces are mostly under the control of the Latins, so Macedonia is actually the front line. Looking at the man's expression, it was obvious that the situation was not very good.

"Read—" Prince Theodor put down what he was holding when he saw this. It seemed that the things he didn't want to see had indeed happened. Now that the Bulgarians have been repulsed, the imperial army with a lonely hand is afraid that the situation is also very dangerous.

Immediately, Hendryer told the man in front of him the news he had just received, and asked him to decide. Just three days ago, the imperial army that retreated from Macedonia was still being pursued by the Latin army. The two sides fought at the Smolikas Pass. The Latin Empire and Thessalonika Kingdom's coalition forces won a great victory and suffered heavy losses. The Roman army had to withdraw back to Rusnina, which meant that the original autumn offensive had completely failed. What is even more disturbing is that Thessaloniki seems to have the meaning of gathering troops to go south, so Thessaly, who is between Macedonia and Moria, will undoubtedly bear the brunt.

"Is their target Thessaly?" Theodore muttered as he looked at the map spread out in front of him.

"It should be right here. Once Thessaly falls, then Achaia and Athens will inevitably be out of our control." Hendriel, who understood the key, was full of anxious expressions.

"Of course, even now they are ready to move!" In fact, when Prince Theodor heard his brother privately accepting the peace between the princes of Achaia and the Principality of Athens, he was so angry that he knew it was. Mikhail deliberately wanted to prevent him from taking the opportunity to expand his strength, but he planted a huge disaster before his eyes.

"The situation is very unfavorable to us, Your Royal Highness." Hendriel looked at Odor and waited for the man to make a decision, but the other party seemed to be noncommittal. He didn't say a word for a long time, making him anxious. .

"So what do you think, Hendry?"

"In fact, I have already figured out the countermeasures, but I can't guarantee whether you promise." I saw Hendry with a hesitant expression. And this scene fell into Theodor's eyes, and the man immediately understood the other party's plan.

Looking across Moria on the map, Prince Theodor's face showed a trace of coldness, and said:

"Are you talking about that kid Justinian?"

A word broke Hendry's thoughts, but from Prince Theodor's tone, Hendry heard the uncertain factors, and could not help but become a little nervous.

"That's true~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Your Highness, now this army of Moria is undoubtedly the force we need most." After swallowing, Hendriel nodded after thinking about it. "In Tripolis, their power can contain Achaia and the Principality of Athens. They are undoubtedly pierced in the eyes of Latins. But this in turn is also a dagger that we stabbed in the heart of the enemy. As long as it is used properly, it can be a fatal blow to the Latins."

However, the man who heard Hendry's analysis gave a sneer, "Huh, Justinian, I haven't settled his account with him before speaking!"

Seeing this and seeing the man's cold eyes, Hendry couldn't help but feel a little stunned at this time. The account that the prince said was naturally what Justinian did a month ago. Not only did he use force to expel His Royal Highness Romanus, the son of the Prince, but he also extorted a large sum of money as so-called compensation. When he heard the news, Hendry could not help being stunned, but he was even more shocked. Justinian actually drove away the upper-ranking officers of the Fourth Company and abruptly swallowed the guards belonging to Prince Theodor. This is simply crazy!

With his knowledge of this Dukas, Hendriel knew that Prince Theodor would never give up, and he couldn't help being speechless if he wanted to say something for a while.

But the next scene made Hendry never think of it, and saw Theodor change his head.

"But having said that, now I do need the power of that kid. I didn't seem to be the wrong person before. As the person chosen by Muzfius, this kid is still eligible to be my temporary collaborator. Although I don’t like what he did before, I have to admit that his goal has been achieved."
