Chapter 63 Debut
"Thank you!" Arslan, who was sitting behind Chief Leo, finally came to his senses, but the severe pain from the wound made him unable to straighten up for a while. If the other party hadn't risked his life to save him, he would have died long ago.
Arslan thanked the man in front of him sincerely.
At this moment, Captain Leo was holding a spear and fighting back and forth, focusing on dealing with the enemy in front of him. "There is nothing to thank. If I die here, how can I explain this situation to Lord Justinian alone?"
"Although his face was indifferent, his words seemed to be complaining about Arslan's reckless behavior.
But seeing this scene, the Turkic young man's heart felt warm for a moment. Unknowingly, they fought side by side, and the grudge they had in the past disappeared completely. But now, although he led the commando to rescue Arslan,
came out, the situation they faced at this moment was still not optimistic. The raid had lost its previous effect as time went by. The Latin army that had reacted had noticed that the number of cavalry teams attacking them was limited, and more and more Latin cavalry were rushing towards them.
came back to support, which made the Turks and Tatars
People feel more and more powerless. After all, they are at a huge disadvantage in terms of numbers. More importantly, according to the plan, after the pressure on the friendly forces on the Acropolis is relieved, they will immediately organize a counterattack and attack the Latins separately. But looking at the hills of the Acropolis
Rome
There was no response from the army's camp, which made Arslan and Leo's garrison chief look solemn. This was the worst situation they expected. If this opportunity was lost, the Latin coalition forces that reacted would be able to take advantage of it easily.
They don't have any worries.
"Damn it! What are those people still hesitating about?" At this moment, Leo, the usually lenient garrison commander, couldn't help but cursed for a while, cursing the Agrinion people on the mountain for missing the opportunity, but
But there was nothing he could do. He guessed that the other party was hesitating, but in this situation, it was better to take the risk and make a desperate move than to sit back and wait for death.
…
The Roman army in the camp on the other side had to give up the pursuit under the order of Prince Theodore. After learning all this, Murad couldn't help but asked angrily: "Why stop the pursuit? Latin
Apparently the rear is unstable for some reason, so now is a great opportunity for us to fight back?"
But as soon as he finished speaking, he received a sound of rebuke, which came from the generals of other legions.
"Why are you talking to His Highness the Prince? How presumptuous!"
"How can such a major military emergency be something you can control? Why don't you retreat quickly!"
The sharp words were like a violent storm. These people had never paid attention to the attitude of a mercenary leader, and these Pronian nobles had already criticized Murad for commanding their troops without authorization.
, as soon as the crisis was resolved, he showed an ugly face.
However, Prince Theodor, who was watching with cold eyes, waved his hand to calm down his subordinates. He did not show any harsh expression towards Murad, but asked calmly: "It is too risky to attack without authorization. You
How do you think it won’t be a scam to lure the enemy in?”
"That's better than sitting here waiting to die. What's more, I don't think the Franks will give up the good situation and retreat just to induce us to take the initiative. That would be really stupid!" Murad sneered at these indecisive nobles.
, it would be better to stay out of it and die.
But Prince Theodor shook his head, looked at the Turkic man in front of him patiently, and said: "If you reach my position, you will naturally understand this. I don't have the capital to make a big gamble." This view
It seems that a man who is inferior to one person but more than ten thousand people also has his own helplessness. Now his one decision determines the life and death of ten thousand people trapped here. Although Theodor knows that opportunities are precious, the prospect he faces at this moment is like a fog.
Generally speaking, this makes this man unable to take the risk of betting on this final blow. More importantly, the Venetian Navy anchored on the sea is like a hungry vulture that has been watching, which makes Theodore
Erdukas was so shocked that he did not dare to act rashly.
But just when Prince Theodore had decided to stand still for the time being, a shocking loud noise suddenly came from the sea, frightening everyone. This huge movement was like a thunderbolt from the blue, unprecedented. And what followed immediately
, a horn sound also came from not far away, making everyone tremble and get excited. It was the horn sound of the arrival of reinforcements. Could it be that the reinforcements led by Justinian have really arrived this time?
Everyone couldn't help but guess. Although they didn't want to admit it, that boy was really their last hope.
From outside the camp, the extremely excited messengers rushed in and started dancing, "From the sea... our reinforcements are coming from the sea!"
"From the sea? Are you kidding? Really or not?" Prince Theodore, who had not expected this at all, also showed an incredible look. Justinian marched from the sea, is he crazy! The sea at this moment is
Dominated by the Venetians! The previous joy suddenly turned into heavy despair. Theodore's face looked livid. You must know that the navy under his command was completely wiped out after only a brief confrontation, and this time Chas
Dinny led his troops from the sea to land under the eyes of the Venetians for rescue, but he simply fell into a trap.
But what the excited messenger said next made Theodore's jaw almost drop in shock.
"It's absolutely true. The noise just now was caused by the battle between the reinforcements and the Venetian fleet. Just now, there was just a 'boom' sound, and a Venetian warship fell into pieces and sank!"
Looking at this scene, for a moment, everyone in the camp, including Prince Theodore, looked at each other, feeling as if this messenger was telling some fantasy. A Venetian warship was actually sunk? This is simply ridiculous.
Are you kidding!
Prince Theodore, who decided to see what happened with his own eyes, immediately walked out of the tent and climbed onto the watchtower, where he could have a clear view of the situation on the southern sea. When the man climbed up the tower to see clearly what was happening on the sea,
His originally dubious expression froze completely and he fell into deep shock, unable to extricate himself. At this moment, the burning wreckage of the warship on the sea was as shocking as the Leviathan swallowing fire. And there was no doubt that it was the sudden appearance of
