Eagle Flag of Epirus

　　 Outside Athens, an army is marching slowly. From a distance, Romanus Dukas saw the triumphant expression on the face of the battle flag of the Corfu Border Guard Company.

　　 Justinian, you have today too.

　　 As early as in Rusnina, the beams of the two sides had already been knotted, and when Justinian suddenly emerged in Macedonia's crusade against the Latins, Romanus completely regarded it as a thorn in the eye.

　　 A servant of the exiled Emperor Alexius V, with luck, became a prince of Moria. This is a shame for the self-reliant Romanus.

But it was another thing that really moved Romanus’ heart to murder. That is, Agrinon has been rumored in the past few months that his father, Prince Theodor, is about to fight. My sister Irina married Justinian in exchange for Moria's support for the Epirus Civil War. There is no doubt that this is the biggest humiliation and the biggest threat to Romanus. He has always felt that he has not received the attention of his father. He is obviously the eldest son but has not received the same support, but his own. That sister is very much loved. What lies before Romanus is a terrifying fact that his father, Prince Agrinion, is likely to choose his son-in-law as his heir in the future. Looking ahead, Justinian, who has now become the heir of Moria's dictatorship, is undoubtedly the most likely candidate. In this way, Romanus and Justinian are no longer the simple contradiction between the front door, but the absolute opposition in real interests, and the two sides have reached the point where they are in the same situation-despite this. Nepal still doesn't know anything. But it does not prevent Romanus from seeing Justinian as the biggest obstacle on his way forward, and he must be removed and hurry up! All this was done without telling his father to use the contacts he had accumulated over the years, even most of the people under his hands did not know. Romanus tried to cut it first and play it later. As long as Justinian died, he believed that he would be able to successfully digest this territory with the help of the Pizzas when the Moria group had no head. At that time, he would be able to prove to his father that he could. Become his true heir.

The confident Romanus has never been so refreshed at this time. He stood on the wall and looked out at the wilderness outside the city. He almost shouted and cheered in excitement. Of course, considering his identity, Romanus Of course not.

　　 At this time, in the distant block, the Pizza Baron Pierre and his entourage were also late to arrive. Now he sits on a city, and he has become the emperor of the land, and even the ostentation of traveling is just like a guard of honor. There was a trace of disgust on Pierre's face, but he walked up anyway.

　　 "You are here, Your Excellency Pierre."

　　 "Gui'an, Your Royal Highness Romanus, I heard that your troops are winning this time, so come here to witness the results of our cooperation." Baron Pierre felt a strange air when he opened his mouth.

　　 And when Romanus Ducas heard this, the expression on his face was slightly cold, and he thought to himself: What else do you Italians do besides enjoying your success? Although he was disdainful in his heart, Romanus was not the reckless and domineering young man after all, and said with a calm expression: "Then let us wait and see, after this matter is over, Moria's affairs still need to rely on you. "It's okay. As long as Justinian is dead this time, we only need to declare that he was attacked by the remnants of the rebels on the road. Then, of course, it is not a problem to gradually divide and conquer Moria. What we discussed..." Pierre said meaningfully, looking at each other.

Knowing what the other party meant, Romanus agreed without hesitation: "This is easy to say. Now I can recognize your rule of Athens on behalf of my father. As for Modong, Corinth, and Corfu. The trade point will naturally be opened to the Pizzas when everything is in order. How about this?"

　　 "I'm afraid of empty mouth and white teeth..."

"Then we can make an agreement." Romanus didn't actually get any authorization from his father, but he used the information asymmetry between the two sides to make Pierre mistakenly believe that what he did now was really gotten. Grignon's endorsement, even the signing of a treaty to sell the benefits is not hesitating. What he wants is to cut first and then play. As long as the fait accompli is completed, he can get the initiative in inheritance.

　　……

　　 After the two sides reached an agreement, the gate of Athens was slowly opened, and the scarred army slowly walked into the city. And seeing this scene, Romanus' heart sank. If such a loss should fail, then not only will he lose face, but the consequences will be unimaginable next.

　　 But when the Corfu border guards came out of carts covered with blood stained white cloth, everyone including the Pizzas was relieved. It was obvious that the piles of corpses on it were all corpses. It seemed that Justinian was really dealt with this time, Romanus and Pierre looked at each other and both breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, in the squares of Athens, more and more people gathered to watch the excitement. The unsuspecting civilians have long been used to war and death. The people who crane their necks are just wondering who these corpses are. of.

On the other side, the Greek soldiers from Corfu entered the square with disgraced faces and passed through the Pericles Square in the center of Athens. However, in the strange atmosphere of the city, apart from the strange gazes of the residents of Athens, it did not look like one at all. A decent ceremony to welcome the triumph.

　　 At this time, Romanus, who couldn't stand it, stood up and said:

"Let us pay tribute to the people who died in battle away from home because of guarding this place. It is they who wiped out the people who threatened the peace here. Each of them deserves our respect~www.wuxiahere.com~May those who enter the kingdom of heaven be able to Rest in peace," Romanus' voice echoed in the center of the square, but few people responded, but he didn't care. As he slowly stood up and turned around, his eyes shifted to Corfu behind him. The army said loudly:

"May the glory of the empire shine on all of us, and everything you do today will be remembered by Athens, no, the entire empire. May the Lord bless you all because you will trample on our land. The eradication of the tyrants has made this a hard-won peace! Just last night, the tyrant of Moria, Justinian, attempted to collude with Latin remnants to attack this city of freedom, and under the guardianship of these warriors in front of us, Athens, this This classical city finally avoided falling into the clutches of the tyrant of Moria. On behalf of the sons of Prince Agrinion, I commend them for protecting this place and the friendship between the empire and its allies."

　　Romanus yelled out, until then he was still deceiving everyone grandiosely, beautifying the killing of last night into a righteous act, in order to win people's hearts.

　　 But at this moment, a voice that made Romanus and Baron Pierre familiar and horrified suddenly came from the crowd.

"That day God was angry, and under the power of the king of Assyria, he smashed the city of sinners like a flood. You must know that if you let the noise and noise, you will eventually destroy it. If you are equated with conspiracy, there will be nothing; invalid."

While chanting the sacred words, the man with his head down behind the captain of the Corfu Company slowly walked out, took off his hood that covered his face, and stood in the middle of the square, under the high platform, no one else. It's Justinian who everyone present thought he should have been killed!
