Eagle Flag of Epirus

The rugged roads of the valley were full of corpses. After a fierce battle, the dead and wounded rebels were wiped out. Even the lord Betoni himself died in the melee. In the silent valley, the blood-stained Justinian and his men were exhausted. They finally won the victory and defeated all the enemies, and at this moment, none of the weapons in their hands and the armor on their bodies were intact. If it weren't for setting up an ambush in advance and adding a sudden attack, I'm afraid they would have already died without a place to bury them. But this is the case, Justinian still felt heavy casualties after this battle, and even he himself received an arrow from his left wrist. If it wasn't for the protection of chain mail, I'm afraid he would have become disabled.

And Salius took off his helmet and still counted the casualties meticulously.

"A total of thirty people were killed in battle and ten were seriously injured, but fortunately, there is no life-threatening for the time being."

Salius said without emotion, reporting their losses on the battlefield to Justinian. In this battle, they wiped out nearly four hundred enemies in total. Although the opponent escaped most of them, they were just mobs, and none of the main rebel forces and leaders escaped. At this time, the sound of people and horses came from the mountain pass, making all those who were exhausted in the presence suddenly tensed.

If there were any more enemies, those people who were too tired to use weapons would really be more ill-fated. And when they saw the person who came, everyone couldn't help but breathe out. It was not the rebels, but Neusky who rushed over to take it. Under Justinian's order, he led the Mystras militia to guard outside the mountain pass and captured the remaining fleeing rebels.

When entering the valley, Nevsky was completely shocked by the scene before him.

Although the aristocracy of the northern rebellion does not seem to be a big national model, he has accumulated a lot of strength secretly, and it should be a big enemy with the support of the Latins. However, these incredible guys who had ransacked many market towns were completely annihilated by Justinian in one morning.

At this moment, Nevsky arrived with the follow-up army, but they only had to clean the battlefield and clean up the spoils, and the militiamen were also stunned at what they saw. It took a long time to realize that they were scrambling to take off the armored rebel equipment, carrying the long-handled weapons that he felt took advantage of, picking up the seized spoils all over the floor, cheering in excitement. They finally let out a bad breath. During this period of time, they have been stabbed in the backbone many times by their relatives and friends in their hometown, and they have been named cowards. Today, the culprit responsible for all this has finally come to an end. Although they are not personally responsible for it, the joy and comfort are self-evident.

The soldiers looked at the young man standing on the hillside, as if looking up at a god, full of awe and worship. I don’t know who yelled first:

"Justinian, long live!"

Immediately after that, the entire valley was filled with the shouts of the soldiers, shouting long live, and it rang straight into the valley mouth and rang into the sky.

And Justinian looked calmly in front of his eyes, waiting for the cheers of the soldiers to gradually subside, and the long sword in his hand was raised above his head, only to hear him shout loudly: "Soldiers, I understand your mood. , You are too longing for a victory to wash away your shame. Because we are all proud of the same thing, that is, we are all soldiers of the Roman Empire. We follow the Roman emperor to fight against the heretics and heretics. We are born And great, before the Latins came to the Holy Land, we resisted the Saracens, Turks, and Penegans! Countless foreign races were broken into sand in Constantinople, but we were betrayed by our allies! The Latins enslaved our people to carve up our land, calling us the Greeks who wanted to let us sink, forget the humiliation and accept our incompetence. But from now on, everything will be gone. We will reinsert the eagle flag. The city of Constantinople, let the imperial army return to its former glory once again. The eagles of the imperial, please follow me! We will gallop in Moria, in Epirus, in Macedonia , In Trabizon, let the brilliance of the eagle flag shine on all the places blessed by Christ. You don't have to fight for me, you are fighting for the empire, fighting for yourself! Long live the empire!"

"Long live the empire!"

Raised their arms, all the Roman soldiers also shouted, this unprecedented enthusiasm has not appeared on them for a long time, and the blood that had been cooling down once again boiled.

Justinian silently looked at everything in front of him with mixed feelings, and suddenly his eyes went dark~www.readwn.com~ He staggered and fell off the hillside. Fortunately, Salius on the side quickly smashed him with his eyesight and hands. Hold on.

"Master Justinian, are you okay?"

Looking at Justinian, who was described as exhausted and exhausted, Salius couldn’t help worrying. After all, Justinian hadn’t closed his eyes for three days, not to mention that after a fierce battle, he was only inside and out. I'm afraid it really doesn't have any strength.

But the weak Justinian shook his head and exclaimed with joy: "Don't worry, I'm just a little tired. Just let me rest here. You and Neusky will now go to Castani immediately. Ya, the people of Pizza should have already done something at this time, so hurry up and meet them."

It is still difficult to get some of the castles with a small amount of the Pisa caravan, but if the defenders in the city learn that their main force has been wiped out, and the lord is also in a different place, then there is nothing left. The next one can be passed on.

"Remember that as soon as the castle in Castania is occupied, the fortifications will be repaired. The news here will spread to Athens and Corinth within three days at the least. Then the Latin nobles who are ready to move will inevitably move. Crooked mind. But we have to buy time now...understand?"

"Understood." You look at me and Salius, and I nodded at the same time when I looked at you. They didn't have any doubts about the orders of this young man who was younger than them. Absolute new people. Since Justinian asked them to do this, there must be a reason to do so. Neusky and Saliuus immediately led the troops and prepared to leave, leaving some soldiers to protect Justinian’s safety, while the rest put down the spoils they were collecting and marched immediately and prepared to go to Castania. The last remnants of the rebels on Leah were wiped out.
