Chapter fifty-one

"Can you give me a reasonable explanation, Lord Faron?" Musval's sneer on his face made Zeodosefaron tremble in his heart. He could feel the terror of the Saracen in front of him. He seemed to have noticed it. Zeodosefaron finally understood why Earl Theodore appointed this person to come.

It's definitely not as simple as a close minister?

Trying to calm down his mood, Zeodosefalon forced himself to calm down, "You didn't understand your words at all. Musvalqing, if it were Eriksen's one-sided words, I'm afraid it wouldn't be trusted!" At this time, he reexamined the other party and combined with what Musval said before, Zeodosefalon knew that he could no longer count on this Saracen, and he could not be careless to give someone a handle.

As for the man's answer, Musval shrugged slightly: "You and I know that this is useless. Even your long-time confidant abandons you. Can others reassure you? Justinian hasn't touched you yet because he is not sure. This kid is trying to be a big shot, so you should take care of yourself!"

Zeodosefalon heard the slight irony in Musval's words. He looked at the other party tightly and said, "Of course I know this, but I am afraid that Justinian will break free from the control of Lord Theodor. If I am removed, what should you plan to do if I am alone?" He made up his mind to win over Musval in front of him. As long as he still has the value of existence, as a proxy for the will of Count Theodor, he believes that the other party will never sit idly by and watch Justinian be detrimental to him.

Sure enough, Musval also showed a thoughtful look, "Indeed, what you said makes sense, but you can ask me to help you, let's talk about the conditions!" Helping Zeodosefalon is just a small task, and the next conditions are what he values ​​the most. Zeodosefalon also gritted his teeth and nodded in agreement with Musval's conditions.

At this time, Justinian had completed the takeover of the entire city of Caramari. There was sufficient food in the treasury, and the surrounding villages were not a problem to prepare the supplies and food. He settled in the original residence of the Lord of Caramari as a place to rest and live. After a great war, the army was a little tired and could not be consumed. Justinian was not worried about the revenge of the Latins for a while. The Legion of Tripolis would take more than ten days to go back and forth. As for the main force of Achaia who was far away in Corinth, he should not expect that Justinian had enough time to digest the results.

But what happened before made a hint of gloom in his eyes. Justinian was mentally prepared to suppress an army with a mere battle flag, and his prestige was far from enough. However, what Zeodoserfron did surprised him.

You should know that if you destroy the granary at any cost, if you insist on marching alone, then the entire army will be in danger of being wiped out. The other party used this vicious method to force himself to end the expedition. This is what Count Theodor means or Zeodoserfron's self-decision is no longer important. What is important is that Justinian now has a confidant.

This Zeodoser must kill him!

Faramis was killed and Ogre was suspended, which seemed to have damaged two generals, but Justinian understood that it did not cause Zeodose Faron to seriously damage his vitality. From the financial crisis of the Komuning Dynasty that had to dissolve the military region, General Tian was granted the general's official position to the general to Alexe III to compromise with military aristocrats. Today, the Byzantine army is more like a private aristocratic force. Justinian has no foundation in the Fourth Company, and those who replaced the two general positions will never be at their own mercy.

If you don't settle Zeodoser's backbone, Justinian knew that he could not mobilize this army as he pleased. It's still OK now, but Justinian did not have a trace of fault tolerance in the next battle.

While meditating, the rooms were suddenly ringing.

"Come in, Neuski."

The door was pushed open, and the burly Valangi people walked in, and Justinian was discussing something with him.

"Do you have something to do with me, Lord Justinian?" Neuschi said in a humble and arrogant manner that outsiders seemed to him as a guard of Justinian. However, in private, as the loyalists of Emperor Muzfius, Justinian did not regard him as a servant. In name, they were cooperative ally, and he regarded him more as a companion of both teachers and friends. The Valangi people in front of him had been through battles for a long time and were used to the political struggles in the palace. In experience, they were exactly what Justinian needed the most. Abdra and Leo could not help Justinian.

"What do you think about today's events?"

"Erikson? His words didn't seem to be fabricated. I didn't expect that he would betray Zeodosefaron like this." Neuski shook his head. It was Erikson who had sent the message to them before. Although Justinian, who received the news, still made arrangements, otherwise what would have happened would be unimaginable. The consequence of this was that Erikson broke with Zeodosefaron and stood on Justinian's side.

But now looking back, things are really not worth pondering. Justinian could not imagine what the other party surrendered to him for. Everything must be promoted with the benefit of being killed. Justinian could not understand Erikson's actions, but he finally handed over the command of Faramis' army to Erikson's hands.

"As sure, do you think there is something wrong?" Neusky asked at Justinian. In fact, he smelled a strange thing but was not sure. Now Justinian's words coincided with what he had thought before. Of course, the conspiracy of the Byzantine nobles, but it does not mean that there is no sense of honor at all. Such betrayal is rare.

"Can it be that Zeodosefalon did it on purpose?" Neuski speculated, but was immediately denied by Justinian.

"What about logic? Why did he do this? If he just wants to put someone by my side, he can have a better chance, making it less easy for me to notice, and he doesn't have to pay such a big price. Even though Zeodose is stupid, he can't bear to give up." Justinian directly eliminated Zeodosefalon's suspicion. Justinian had only one sentence for the evaluation of this man. He would be willing to forget his righteousness when he saw small profits and cherish his life. He would never be willing to let the two generals die.

"Who will it be?" Neuski whispered softly, and the two people's eyes intersected, and at the same time there was a sense of induction, and they all said the name of a person.
