Chapter 45 Conspiracy

The Latins were uneasy in the city of Caramay under the night. Although they received the promise of the Byzantines, they felt that revenge was inevitable when they thought of everything that happened in Constantinople.

"Do you really think that the Byzantines would be open to us like Saladin in Jerusalem, Sir Baptist, you should know that Pope Gregorian once said that the rule of *** would be much better than the heresy of Christ who disobeyed the Catholic Church." The opposing priests in the city still wanted to change Baptist's mind, but the man naturally scoffed at this.

"So what do you want? Are you waiting for death here? The pedantic guys, you are not the ones who fight on the battlefield!" Finally, someone stood up to object. The knights under Baptist had no longer wanted to resist fearlessly. Now even the militia leaders had agreed to surrender. Instead, these priests were pedantic and even threatened to report to the Vatican to expel Baptist and others from their churches.

"Of course there is a way. As long as we trick the Byzantines into the city and take the opportunity to attack and kill their commander, we can buy time for the arrival of reinforcements!" The most intense priest named Hildebrand in front of Baptister actually directly proposed to use such disgraceful means to turn the situation around by any means.

"What a joke, this is completely contrary to our principles! And if the whole city fails, everyone in the city will be buried with you!" The knights scolded this ridiculous proposal, while Baptist, who was standing beside him, kept saying nothing. He recalled the reply Justinian gave him during the day and had already made his own plans.

"Everyone, it's not the time to argue!" The man interrupted the fierce debate between the two sides and said slowly: "Please believe me, the other party will not retaliate against us. Now only obedience is the best choice, Hildebran. No one is willing to be buried here. If you really want to be martyred, please don't do boring actions here, otherwise I will not show mercy at that time."

At this moment, the voice of many men suddenly became cold. The priests immediately felt the murderous aura on each other. Baptist's words were already clear. If they really continued to object, they might have to die first at the hands of their own people. Even though such crimes were enough to make the Holy See angry, people in this lonely city can do anything for a glimmer of hope.

Seeing the pedantic priests finally shut their mouths, Baptist nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, everything is over, everyone is here to order to pack their luggage, and we will be ready to leave here as soon as the day goes by." In fact, he was also very worried about whether Justinian would be trustworthy, so he decided to leave as soon as possible. All the knights, nobles and troops can leave safely. As for the civilians, he could no longer control so much. In fact, he did not think they had failed. Judging from the other party's performance during the day, the Byzantine army was not large, and even if the Southern Peloponnese was captured, the reinforcements of the Achaean vassal state would come to recover sooner or later. At this moment, Baptist sneered in his heart, planning his plans for a comeback.

...

On the other side, another plot in Justinian's barracks was also brewing.

"Master Fallon, we are here." Taking advantage of the night, several people wearing black robes sneaked into Zeodosefalon's tent, and no one noticed all this, and Zeodosefalon had been waiting for them for a long time.

Just looking at the number of people in front of him, Zeodosefalon frowned slightly and said, "Why are there only you missing? Why didn't he come?" As the commander general, he was naturally familiar with the officers under his command. However, he found that one of them was absent and did not come at a glance.

"God of anger, he said that since you have handed over the military power to Lord Justinian, he has no reason to come to see you privately at this time." The officer with a difficult face had to tell Zeodosefalon the original painting, which made the man furious.

"He dares to say this when he is trampling on the inside!" The man was furious. The other party promoted himself. The relationship between the two parties was nothing like the Latin vassals and lords. Now the other party was busy serving Justinian, which made Zeodosefalon unable to sit still. The things that happened this day had already exceeded the limit he had endured.

"General, please don't care. He has such a temper. But do you have any instructions to ask us to come here at this time?" The officers were also uneasy at this moment. They had already become enemies with Justinian, and if this scene was seen, they would probably be very guilty.

Zeodosefalon will not let go of it for the time being, and said, "I have something more important to you."

"We must do our best, General."

"Very good," looked at the subordinates in front of him with relief, and Zeodosefalon immediately told them his plan.

After hearing what the man said, the officers also changed their expressions, including shock, fear, and doubt. There was a hint of madness in the eyes of the general in front of them.

"But, Your Excellency General, this is a must-"

"Just do as I say. When everything is successful, I will give you rewards when I return to Agrignon. Do you understand? But whoever leaks this matter will die!" The man said in a threatening tone, which made the officers present sank in their hearts and couldn't help but shivering.

The words Zeodosefalon said were definitely not a joke. The officers looking at each other didn't know what to do for a moment.

"But Muswarqing probably doesn't know--"

"Don't mention him, that Saracen dog can't count on it at all!" The vicious Zeodoserphalon was still very annoyed by what the other party said during the day. He was unwilling to become an abandoned son. Since Count Theodor could no longer count on him, he could only try to take an adventure.

"Is there any problem?" Zeodosefalon asked again after a cold look at everyone.

At this time, I don’t know who broke the silence first and said, “Don’t worry, General, we will do our best to complete your instructions.”

"We must do our best!" Seeing that there was a man on his head, the other Pronian nobles no longer hesitated to accept Zeodosefalon's mission.
