Chapter 39 On the Sword and the Money Bag

The moment the fire burst into the sky, Baron Pierre, who was woken up from his dream, immediately felt that something was wrong when he looked at the scene in front of him. The direction of the fire seemed to be the residence of the envoy of the Achaean Kingdom! Without hesitation, he

Immediately, he led his men and rushed over. His intuition told him that something big must have happened to the Latin people. He prayed that nothing would happen, but Pierre actually already had the answer in his heart.

Judging from the Greeks' calm reaction today, he should have been alert, but even so, he was still taking chances——

And when Pierre arrived at the scene with his people, even though the man had been mentally prepared, he was still shocked and stunned by what happened in front of him.

Nothing could be worse than what happened at this moment. Seeing the raging fire, Baron Pierre almost fell to his knees and groaned.

I saw dozens of people standing in front of the inn that had been swallowed up by the fire. It was Justinian and his Turkic men, and their bodies were covered with the enemy's blood that was about to solidify. Apparently, they had already

I have been waiting for him here for a long time.

"You are finally here, Mr. Pierre, you really made me wait!" Looking at the arrival of the Pisa people, Justinian looked as usual. It was obvious that he had been prepared, and then he waved his arm and threw out the

A round object fell in front of Pierre, startling him.

At this time, under the firelight, Pierre saw clearly what Justinian threw to him - the head of Oseis, the envoy of the Achaean kingdom. The frightened man screamed in panic.

He yelled, and then stepped back, almost tripping and falling to the ground. It was not that Pierre had never seen dead people before, but the Latin people who were so aggressive towards him during the day turned into corpses in the blink of an eye. This shock was indescribable.

In contrast, the man's eyes were full of shock and fear. The soldiers behind him quickly helped him up, holding weapons and looking warily at the dozens of death-like people standing in front of the flames and blood, and their hearts were full of fear.

Uneasy.

"You...you..." Pierre, who broke free from fear, then looked at Justinian with resentful eyes. Of course he knew the other party's intention of doing this. The envoy of the Achaean Kingdom died like this.

Without an explanation, the Achaean princes would never give up. The reason why Justinian did this was simply to force him to take sides! Osseus was killed so inexplicably, I'm afraid he

I didn't think that this war would be impossible. The man was so angry that he couldn't even speak for a while. After a while, he said:

"Do you think I will surrender to you with such despicable means? Your Excellency, Justinian, can it be said that I treated you with courtesy and this is your return gift? It is really disappointing."

"Are you despicable... In my opinion, as long as the purpose is achieved, the means are always secondary, and everything else is unimportant. Besides, the purpose of welcoming me here may not be that simple, but more of a signal to the Latin people.

Isn't it? But there is one thing I want to emphasize, Mr. Pierre, if you really consider the safety of everyone here, continuing to act like this will not benefit anyone. The position of Nafplion has been actively

It's impossible to stay out of the matter. I think your Excellency on the ground should have said the same thing to you!" Looking at the head on the ground, Justinian still replied calmly, not caring that his group had been

The Pisa people were surrounded by people. After contacting the opponent, Justinian was already sure. Although Baron Pierre was shrewd enough, what he lacked was the decisiveness of the superiors. Now he pushed him to

There was nothing he could do about the cliff. Even if he could, he wouldn't have the courage to choose to do it.

This obviously touched the opponent's sore spot. A trace of cruelty flashed across Pierre's face for a moment, but it quickly disappeared. Although his reason allowed him to restrain his murderous intention, the man still said coldly:

"But I have already emphasized that no one in Pisa will support this damn war. What do you think the peace here in the past two years depends on? It depends on our loyalty to the contract between us and the Genoese people.

, Venetians have never been the same! Marquis William has already promised that Nafplion can be safe as long as Pisa does not interfere. Do you think I will really be stupid enough to get myself into trouble, Greek?"

"Loyalty to the contract? Ridiculous remarks, that can only be realized if the strength is equal. I have said before that Nafplion has not been baptized by war just because you stand behind

The Republic of Pisa is not a promise or a treaty. Before my army captured Tripolis, the other party could not move you after weighing the pros and cons. But now that the Achaean princes are desperate in the face of our counterattack, they have given you an order.

Ultimatum, you don't think you can escape the fate of being involved in the war by relying on your empty promises, do you, Baron Pierre?" He interrupted the other party abruptly, and Justinian also said sharply, and there was a pause.

The opponent's momentum was suppressed, and the atmosphere became tense in an instant. The subordinates behind them all put their hands on their waists, looking on guard.

The pale-faced Pierre looked at Justinian and couldn't help but take two steps back. Although frustrated, he still made the final threat:

"Aren't you afraid that I will be sent to Marquis William Chaplet? Now think about it, as long as I get rid of you, the culprit, everything will be over."

Having said that, the guards behind Pierre unsheathed their swords one after another, and the Turkic warriors around Justinian also immediately reacted and put their bows and arrows on the bowstrings.

But this still did not scare Justinian in front of him. He motioned to Arslan and the others to put down their weapons, turned around and shrugged slightly towards the Pisa people in front of them, only to hear the young man talk: "Since I

When I get here, you won’t think that I’m not prepared at all, right?”

"What... do you mean?" Pierre, who was confused, immediately felt that something was wrong and did such a thing. The young man named Justinian was so calm that something was wrong. Then there was only one explanation - he too

Already prepared.

Sure enough, Justinian no longer concealed anything at this moment, and then went straight to the point: "My army is stationed just ten miles away from this city. If you really want to hand me over to the Latins,
