Eagle Flag of Epirus
Vol 7 Chapter 21: Burning Bay (Part 1)
"Do you have any evidence for such a vow?" Antonia said with a pretense of composure, who was stunned after receiving the reply from the other party. vertex
On the dock, the Latin aristocrat sneered and said: "Since we are fighting like this, of course we have conclusive evidence and certainty. This is an edict from His Majesty Henry. Unless you accept the search, you are not allowed to leave here for half a step."
As soon as 's words fell, behind the nobleman, the aggressive Frank soldiers raised their spears in a deterrent manner, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense. It seems that this time, the people of the Latin Empire had to achieve their goals even if they did not hesitate to use force.
Watching this scene, Justinian couldn't help holding the broadsword hanging from his waist tightly.
But this move was stopped by Antonia with an unmoving look beside her, pulling Justinian's cuff, and the Genoese girl whispered: "Don't act rashly... Wait for the time to be late."
Immediately, Antonia looked towards the Latin aristocrat below, and said calmly: "You can come up and search, but you can only come up by asking your people to put down their weapons!"
"Impossible. What's the truth? What kind of search is it if you don't even bring weapons?" The Latin aristocrat under the ship flatly refused, "You have no room for bargaining. I only give you one last chance to think about it. Otherwise, it will Don't blame us for being impolite."
As soon as this statement came out, the Latin soldiers behind him took a step forward, and this kind of stubborn behavior made Justinian and the others more sure that the other party's purpose must be directed at them.
Looking from the deck of the ship, the entire southwestern city of Constantinople was dusty, and it was clear that a large group of people was being mobilized towards this place. If this continues, the situation will only become more and more unfavorable for them, and there is no time to hesitate.
Justinian cast his gaze behind him, and at this time, the Vadaritais who were disguised as slaves on the ship were already eager to try, ready to pick up the weapons that had been hidden by their side and let their Latin enemies fight to death. It is true that this situation is already extremely dangerous to break through the copper and iron walls of Constantinople, but now they have no retreat.
And below, the Latin nobleman who had been pressing hard at this time also smelled a hint of danger, and he seemed to have been prepared to take two steps back silently with a grim smile on his face. Instead, they were heavily armed soldiers who had erected a shield wall, and more and more hooks were thrown towards Genoese ships, ready to intercept Justinian and his party who might flee at any time.
"This is the last chance for you to consider. Of course, if you are willing to hand over the people we want, then you can leave here safely, too." The arrogant Latin aristocrat once again spoke with great conceit.
"I don't understand your Excellency what you mean." Antonia looked at the scene in front of her and her expression sank slightly. It seems that it is impossible to leave easily today. And she is still trying to deal with the Latins to buy time for Justinian, but it is obvious that the Latin Crusaders who have gradually gathered to surround her have already run out of patience.
"Still loading garlic, ready to do it!"
With an order, the heavy-duty soldiers with a solemn expression finally set their positions, but the Genoese sailors who did not expect such a thing to happen are still in the dark and don't know what to do.
But at this moment, when the two sides were at war, a sudden rush of trumpets suddenly sounded, and then the bell that symbolized the emergency military situation was also sounded at this moment.
……
"Boom!"
"Enemy attack! Concealment!"
With a loud noise, a huge boulder wrapped in fuel-consuming asphalt slammed the unsuspecting Latin soldiers over the city wall right behind the Latin aristocrats. The collapsed wall was smashed down, and suddenly a piece of death was injured.
what happened? What's going on!
The Latins who didn't react at all had only this idea in their hearts, and the fierce attack was still behind. And this scene also fell into Justinian's eyes at the same time. And their vision on the ship was much wider than the Latins on the pier and the port, and they couldn't help showing a shocked look at this moment when they witnessed what happened.
A large fleet appeared on the sea to the southwest, and it was they who launched an attack on Constantinople. It’s hard to imagine that someone would take the initiative to attack the impregnable Constantinople at sea, but what was even more shocking to Justinian was that the flag that was flying in the wind in the distance was extremely prominent, and that was nothing else. It is the two-headed eagle battle flag belonging to the Byzantine Empire. Whistling in the wind, the fierce attack also made the Latin army that was preparing to defend the Genoa fleet in chaos at this moment. I saw that the navy that suddenly appeared outside the Golden Horn at this time launched a simple offensive. Queue, and the Latins were unprepared at this time, and only the first round of attacking the Nicaea completely razed everything on the shore.
caused a devastating blow to the defense of the Latin Empire at sea to be completely destroyed!
And this gave Justinian a rare chance to escape!

……
And at this time, the Venetian envoy Spendis also showed a clear look~www.readwn.com~ because it is clear that this sudden appearance of the Byzantine navy is undoubtedly the handwriting of the Nicaea.
I saw that the aggressive Nicaea navy chose an easy-to-impact formation and three wedge-shaped vertical arrangements. These warships were undoubtedly the imperial guard navy that desperately broke through before the fall of Constantinople. After they arrived in Nicaea He was loyal to the Lascaris family.
"Unexpectedly, Nicaea would not hesitate to use his biggest hole card. It seems that it is definitely not just for the sake of a patriarch of Constantinople." Spendis, who was standing on the top of the city and witnessing this scene, muttered to himself. , And the anxious subordinates also rushed over at this time.
"My lord, the Greeks... it was the Greeks who came here. Do we need to send troops to support?" At present, the Latin Empire's navy has only a few sampans, totally dependent on Venice. Now the Greeks suddenly come to the sea. The offense must be revenge. The panicked Venetian general hurriedly asked Spendis for the order to play. But he was severely reprimanded.
"Fool, you have led the soldiers in the war for so many years, don't you even see the bluff of the Greeks? Just watch the changes!" Spendis coldly ordered.
"Quiet...Certainly watching the changes?...Yes, my lord." First, the Venetian officer who was taken aback suddenly saw the cold expression of his officer, and nodded quickly, before passing the order.
While quietly looking at the chaotic Golden Horn on the sea, Spendis shrugged silently, "Now let’s clear up, Your Highness Elena. As for what happens next, I don’t care. Not anymore."
