Eagle Flag of Epirus
Vol 6 Chapter 89: Fox Hunting (Part 2)
The news that the enemy died unexpectedly reached the ears of Emperor Henry at first, and he was also very surprised at that time. Apex novel X23US. It's a pity that his brother Baldwin I was tortured to death by Carloyan's blinding eyes. There is no way to avenge it. It is a pity. But there is another point that also makes Emperor Henry regret that he has lost a good opportunity to weaken Boniface. This is why Henry himself has not responded to the opponent’s request for help. He originally wanted to use the Bulgarian hand to get rid of Boniface, and then sent troops to rescue and took the opportunity to take the opportunity to take the city of Thessaloniki, but now it seems , That unruly guy escaped unexpectedly this time.
But now that a huge threat has been eliminated with no effort, Emperor Henry is now satisfied, so that he will have no worries when he sets out to deal with the remnants of the Byzantine Empire.
"Then Your Majesty, do we still need to rescue Thessaloniki City now?"
Having seen the thoughts in Emperor Henry's heart, the nobles on the side also asked tentatively.
Henry also shook his head decisively, "Of course there is no such need. Now that the most threatening Bulgarian army has withdrawn, the Greek army that is still in Macedonia is not a concern. With Boniface. I have enough power to handle it."
"Your Majesty said yes."
Seeing that their emperor had already expressed his views, the nobles nodded and said yes. But everyone could tell that, in fact, Emperor Henry was still thinking about sitting on the mountain and watching tigers fight. The combat effectiveness of the Greek army is certainly not worth mentioning, but it will also cause the Kingdom of Thessaloniki to suffer a certain loss, and if Epirus is brought to a full-scale war, Boniface can only choose to accept it by then. Become a vassal of the Roman Empire.
It is a pity that both the Latin aristocrats and the Emperor Henry himself were too optimistic about everything. So much so that they think that the Roman army surrounding Thessaloniki at this moment is completely vulnerable, but knows that a storm is brewing and will completely change the pattern of the old frontiers of the entire Roman Empire.

On the other hand, the defenders of Thessaloniki, who had been thoroughly prepared, finally decided to launch a final offensive against the Greek army that had been unwilling to lift the siege outside the city.
In order to prevent accidents, the Latin army did not choose to come out, but left a part of the army to stay in the city. But this attack was commanded by King Boniface and Marquis Dennister himself. They are all elite soldiers who attacked Constantinople in the past, and their combat effectiveness can be imagined.
Obviously, the Latin army is also trying to make a final decision, using the lion to fight the rabbit and use all the momentum to completely defeat the vulnerable enemy in their eyes. Such a high-spirited army is indeed a usable division in the eyes of others, but I have to say that such a result is actually not what Dennister himself would like to see. Even if the whole army has made sufficient preparations, many nobles are right. The enemy still didn't pay enough attention to how much to make the Marquis a little uneasy. But even if he wanted to terminate, it was too late, because the final decision-making power of the expedition was in the hands of his uncle, King Boniface.
And this brave and brave Crusader general was never willing to give up halfway. What he loves most is launching a storm-like attack.
This so-called "fox hunting" war has inevitably kicked off!

1206 will undoubtedly be the year that will determine 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 empire’s old soil, and the battle between Epirus and Boniface outside Thessaloniki is undoubtedly a magnificent recovery. The war kicked off a magnificent prelude.
Before the war began, this side of the Latin army first sent envoys to the camp of the Roman army for peace talks, but it was obvious that Thessaloniki had no intention of a peaceful settlement at all. The arrogant nobles have since directly asked the Roman army to lay down their weapons and surrender, so that the Latin army would safely send them out of Macedonia, otherwise a Byzantine soldier would not want to escape back to Epirus.
In the face of such arrogant words from the other party, Justinian, who was in command, completely smiled, and did not take the other party's threat to heart. Instead, he ordered his men to send him back with the scars of the messenger who came with the whip. Justinian used the most direct means to fight back the enemy's arrogance. And this undoubtedly greatly encouraged the military spirit of the Roman soldiers who were still a little worried.
Only the ugly Latino took the messenger back, and the final mobilization before the battle began.
And Justinian, who was on the horse, still looked calm at the moment~www.readwn.com~ He led all the troops under his command out of the camp, all out, and even burned the camp to prevent the soldiers from fluke.
Even Prince Theodor, who had been on the battlefield, was shocked by such a decision to break the boat. Justinian’s decision meant that this war could only be won but not defeated, and if it weren’t for recognizing the decision to launch this war, Justinian, Theodor Ducas never thought that anyone could be so crazy.
At this moment, the Latin army was finally ready for a decisive battle, and before the army, Justinian also drew out a long sword and shouted out a magnificent pre-war declaration:
"My fellow robes, as you have already seen, in front of us is Thessaloniki, desecrated by heretics, and if God bless Rome, as long as we win this victory, history will be remembered forever. At this moment, remember the name of every warrior of the empire who fought alongside me Justinian. But if we are defeated because of the cowardice in our hearts, then the glory of the empire will always be covered in dust, and our homeland will fall. Under the barbaric iron hoof, and you and my relatives and friends will inevitably become slaves. Although the territory of the empire is large, we have no way to retreat. There is a cliff behind us, and only moving forward is the only way out. May you and I will enter Constantinople together at that time to retrieve the glory that belongs to you!"
And at the moment Justinian’s voice fell, the voice that responded to him was like the sound of raging waves, magnificent and magnificent. There has never been such a Roman army with one heart and one mind. At this moment, they used their roar to tell the Latins that they were hunting. It is not a cunning fox, but a fierce lion.
