Eagle Flag of Epirus

After a three-day and three-night march, Justinian finally reached the town of Fracha Fort in the northwest before the Magyars invaded. It's just that the closer they get to their destination, the heavier the group's mood becomes.

Even if it was Justinian who was full of confidence, the look on his face at the moment was very ugly. Although Connaughtin had promised that all the garrisons in the northwest would be under the command of Justinian, there were few responders along the way. He also saw many Bolgars fleeing when they learned of the Magyar invasion. The town fortresses were left deserted, and the only soldiers left, 51, were not old, weak, sick or disabled.

What's more terrible is that the town and castle in the northwest is obviously in disrepair, and although the destination Frachaburg is an important town, I am afraid it is not much better.

However, after the actual arrival, Justinian and his entourage were relieved. Although exhausted, the flag of the Southern Noble Army flying on the castle in front of them made them let go of their previously hanging hearts.

Vlacha Fort is located in the border area of ​​northwestern Bulgaria. Because it is close to the mountains, it is obviously a bit dry. The plants covering the ground outside the castle are short grasslands. The water source on this entire wilderness is obviously very much in comparison. Little, the people who feed the entire castle can barely.

It seems that the defense is still tight, and the castle repairs are in place. Relying on this to resist the enemy's attack has finally reduced the pressure on Justinian and his men a lot.

"It seems to be here... According to Connaughtin, there are about a thousand Bulgarian troops stationed here. It is barely enough to hold here, but it is not that simple to fix the Magyars here. Now.” Arslan had seen many European castles with his father Murad since he was a child, and it was considered well-informed, and he quickly estimated it.

And Justinian nodded and said: "Indeed, and because of this, the help of the Vadarutai people is very important. If they are willing to join, it is possible to defeat or even destroy the Magyars. ."

At this time, the defenders on Frachaburg also saw Justinian and his party coming to the city, and then they were sent to take the letter written by Justinian and written by Earl Connoldin to stay here. In the hands of the vindicator.

Soon, the closed city gate suddenly opened, and Justinian was immediately welcomed by the Bolgarians in the city.

"Your Excellency Justinian, welcome you and your subordinates to this place. The garrisons and soldiers stationed at Frachaburg are extremely happy for your arrival. We are very grateful that you are willing to fight alongside us to resist Magyar. Attack of the devil!"

As soon as he entered the castle, the oncoming man walked towards Justinian and said enthusiastically, and the speaker was Ivan Kogils, the garrison chief who was stationed at Fraza. Compared to what he said, his fat flesh seems to be a bit too big, and his beard trimmed neatly around his mouth is particularly impressive. Unlike Grand Duke Baolier, this fat man didn't have the feeling of Kong Wu's power at all. On the contrary, he was disgusted by Justinian, and coupled with a flattering expression, it gave him another bad feeling. Hunch.

"Because Frachaburg is too important here, and as the chief here, I stand in the position of protecting one-fifth of the country's land. I feel extremely sorry that I cannot lead troops there when the northern nobles are launching a rebellion. Help Your Highness Paulier. If I can be in Turnovo with a vote of soldiers, I will definitely fight hard to be allegiance to His Highness... When I thought of this in the past three months, my chest would still be full of regret. So much so. My heart is depressed, I forgot to sleep and eat." I only heard the defense officer in front of me said again.

Just hearing this speech, it was not Justinian, even Arslan and other Turkic warriors felt disapproved...Looking at it this way, they all realized that what the garrison said just now was really insincere. If you have been depressed for three months and don't think about tea and rice, how mellow this Lord Ivanco's original posture will be! I'm afraid that this dear friend Shiyou is as willing to watch the fire from the other side as the Baron Feister they met in the south, and didn't want to disturb it, but this time the Magyars came and burned a fire here, and he was in a hurry. Only then did I remember to join Bolier Assen's side.

However, no one said anything about it. With the spirit of entering from the right ear to the left ear, he listened to the man in front of him for twenty minutes. Finally, when the feelings of boredom and boredom in Justinian's heart gradually increased, the garrison officer named Ivanko ended his endless talk.

"...Based on the above, I hope that you can shoulder the high hopes of your Highness and fight the enemy side by side with us-so short, but the above is my speech."

At this time, after the Ivanko defensive officer who was content to speak at his heart had finished speaking, he replaced him with a slender and thin man who looked like an adjutant and stood up, but compared to his commander’s ruddy complexion, perhaps his body Are you uncomfortable? His face is quite ugly. It's not an exaggeration to call it haggard.

"Master Ivanko, I think Master Justinian should have been exhausted after rushing all the way, should we arrange for them to take a rest first...cough cough cough... Master Justinian, this is the first time I met Chief Ivanco Giles’ adjutant...cough...Alexander Olki. Cough...cough cough...I’m sorry. I have only come to welcome you and your subordinates until now. I will send someone to send all the defense information here later. Go to your residence~www.readwn.com~ I have already arranged it overnight last night. Please forgive me if there is any omission."

Contrary to the chief's speech with exaggerated themes and empty content, the words of Alexander, as the adjutant, are completely aimed at practicality, which is what Justinian needs most during his trip. For example, the armed armament situation of the local army, what the command system will become, which building the soldiers will stay in, and where will they go to eat, etc. And what's going on in Frachaburg now, and what he cares most about now.

"...Above, such as...ahem...If you don't understand, you can come and ask me." Alexander said.

At this time, Ivanko reacted and quickly flattered: "Yes, yes, I almost forgot. The people below are still stupefied about what they are doing and immediately go and prepare for Lord Justinian and his subordinates to rest, wait. In the evening, Humble Job prepares a sumptuous dinner to entertain Your Excellency Justinian."

But Justinian waved his hand and said, "You don’t have to be so troublesome, Your Excellency Ivanko, you should know the purpose of my trip. Now the military situation is urgent, so let’s take my subordinates to rest first. As for me, I also want to understand immediately. Everything about Frachaburg. Especially about the Vadarutai people. I need to get useful information as soon as possible. Can I trouble you about this, Your Excellency?"

Having already roughly seen the real person in charge of the castle, Justinian didn't bother to make any more false statements. He looked directly at the haggard Alexander Olki and said.

And at this moment, after Justinian mentioned the "Vadaritais", the atmosphere in front of the entire castle seemed to have changed a lot...
