Eagle Flag of Epirus

Vol 3 Chapter 26: Chincha Kuman

"It's Lord Justinian!" The guards of the city, who were already frightened, finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the person sitting on the elephant turned out to be Justinian, but they didn't expect this army. The commander of is actually their city lord Justinian!

   "It's me!" Seeing that Justinian, the defender above the castle, also beckoned to them to ensure his safety, "This is the army granted to me by the Earl of Theodor. You can let go of the gates."

   "Yes!" The happy city defender immediately opened the city gate, and all the people in the city watched the incredible scene that happened before them with curious eyes.

The orderly army slowly approached the castle. Fortunately, the castle had already undergone an expansion, so it could barely accommodate the army. Leo immediately ordered the people below to vacate the barracks, but Justinian sat. The armoured war elephant now attracts people's attention even more. It is the first time for many people to see this behemoth, their faces are full of curiosity.

I saw Justinian coming down from the elephant’s back and handing it to the Saracen trainer who followed him. "Next, please trouble you, Moswar." This elephant is Theodor. The initiative to give him is indeed a great help on the battlefield in a sense.

   "This is what I should do, please rest assured." The Saracens walked into the city with the elephant blankly, and did not react to the strange gazes around him.

   This beast trainer Muswar was also a gift from Theodor, and Justinian knew that this was not a kindness. He didn't think that Theodor was so kind, but it was normal. Not only that, but the company's deputy has also been arranged, he is Zeodoro Cephalon who commanded the attack on Athens not long ago. How could Theodor be so relieved to hand over an army of his own to Justinian's hands. Justinian knew this well, and I am afraid that for now he is not just keeping this army loyal to him. Even driving this army is no easy task.

   At this time, Leo, who came down from the castle, came out to greet him with excitement. He was already distraught in the past few days when he hadn't heard from Justinian.

   "Master Justinian!"

"Don't worry, I'm okay." Justinian stepped forward and patted Palio on the shoulder, winking, and said, "This is Zeodorcepha, whom Count Theodore sent to assist me. General Long, and he is also the army’s deputy. You first prepare a clean and comfortable house to arrange for him to rest. Other things will be discussed later.” He pointed to the man on the side, but the man riding on the horse snorted coldly. Screamed. Zeodore Cephalon did not conceal his contempt for Justinian. If he hadn't lost his attack on Athens and had to lose his merits, how could he be willing to live under the command of such a hairy boy.

  Leo nodded immediately, and turned to Zeodore Cephalon who was aside: "Welcome to Fort Ilovan, Your Excellency, I would like to ask you to feel wronged for the whole night."

"You don't need to say that." Zeodore Cephalon didn't even look at Leo beside him. In his opinion, the nonsense between himself and these low-level officers was a humiliation. He looked at Justinian. Suddenly he said coldly: "Your Excellency Justinian, Earl Theodor has ordered you to march into the Moria Military District as soon as possible. I don't want to be involved here for too long."

   "I know this, Lord Fallon, but please also remember that I am the commander of the army." Justinian also said unceremoniously, at least nominally now he is the superior of this middle-aged man.

   But the answer to him was still a sneer——

"I am only here on the order of Count Theodore to assist the commander in your expedition to the Moriah Military District. If you cannot regain Moriah, then you are not the governor of the region, and you have not allowed it. I am absolutely obedient to the power." Zeodoro Cephalon riding on the horse did not see Justinian in his eyes, especially the words Justinian said at the banquet before that he was also there at the time, even more so. He didn't have the slightest affection for this hairy boy, and when he said that he drove his horse into the city.

"This guy—" Seeing Zeodore Cephalon's arrogant attitude, Captain Abdela, who had been following Justinian, finally couldn't help it. He returned from Agrinion to Ilovan Castle. During the two days' journey, Zeodore Cephalon's attitude was so bad that he couldn't stand it anymore.

   But Justinian stopped him at this moment, "Forget it, but you have to be busy these days. Prepare some logistics materials. He is right. I will leave within a few days."

"Are you really going to Moria? This is what people say..." Abdra can't say anything~www.wuxiahere.com~ But the fact is that I am afraid that I can't expel it with the power of Ilovan Castle. The Latin, but Justinian insisted.

"Yes, one of you will be responsible for the affairs of Fort Ilovan during the next period of my absence, while the other will accompany me to assist me in this expedition. Who of you is willing to go with me." said Chacha Steinney looked at the two middle-aged men calmly. These months of getting along has made him trust Abudra and Leo equally, but no matter what, one must stay at the Ilovan Fort. He feels at ease.

   "Me!" Only two people stood up at the same time. They both wanted to follow Justinian on the expedition, even though they both knew the danger that might be encountered next.

   But at this moment, an army approached outside the castle.

   "It's a Turkic!" Only the soldiers on the sentry tower yelled.

   "Are they here until now?" Justinian muttered to himself, putting down the previous discussion and walking out of the city gate. It was Arslan who had not seen him leading the Turkic cavalry for a long time. Looking at the lineup he brought, in addition to the three hundred Turkic light cavalry promised before, there are more than 400 light infantry following them. No wonder Arslan will come later than Justinian previously expected. . Looking at each other’s attire, Justinian recognized at a glance that following the Turkic people were a group of Komaloys, the so-called Kumans. These people were nomads from the vast grasslands of Central Asia. They were excellent. Cavalry, at the same time excellent archers, it was strange that they appeared in front of Justinian as infantry at this time. More importantly, the Chincha people often join forces with the Georgians to fight the Turks. But at this time, how can they get mixed up with the Turkic mercenaries like Arslan?
