In the hidden place on the mountain not far from Argos, Justinian was looking at the city of Argos, surrounded by the Latins, with a serious expression. He was not unaware that the Latins were besieging the city, but at this time the heavily armed cavalry behind him had already been waiting for Justinian's order to issue and was ready to fight the Latins to the death. However, Justinian, who was silent, did not give the order for a long time, but instead refused the request from the soldiers behind him.

"His Highness Justinian, please allow us to fight. The enemy did not expect that we would appear here at this time. If we were unexpected, we would definitely severely damage the Latins' urgent need to solve Argos." Salius could not understand the reason why Justinian never gave orders, and still tried to persuade him to allow him to lead his army to fight to rescue his comrades in distress.

But Justinian was unmoved and said sternly: "It is not the time for you to attack. No one is allowed to move without my order!"

"But, Your Highness, if this goes on, the city of Argos." Zalius wanted to speak but stopped. He guessed Justinian's intention, but he was unwilling to believe that it was.

Justinian also noticed the other party's gaze and said lightly: "I know this is indeed cruel, but many times we have to make such a choice. We choose to sacrifice some people in exchange for the safety of most people. If this is evil, I would rather swallow it and be judged in hell after death!"

Looking ahead calmly, Justinian's blue lake eyes were not shaken at all, because any warmth in the war should completely disappear from the moment he picked up the weapon, and this is the greatest humanity of a commander on the battlefield.

...

At this moment, in the city of Argos, the battle has reached a heightened level.

The Latins who dug the trench successfully advanced the trench slowly, causing the wall of Argos to enter their range. The asphalt barrels wrapped in flames and the huge rocks that could be seen everywhere on the coast were smashed hard on the wall of Argos. Argos, which had never experienced a big war, was already average. Soon, the fragile wall collapsed. The Latin army, who saw the gap in the city wall, sniffed at Argos, was like a shark in the sea, sniffed blood and rushed towards Argo.

In the city of S, Carlodesai had only more than 300 soldiers left in his hands, and he fought and retreated, and continued to resist by the city wall in an orderly manner, protecting the civilians in the city to retreat to the inner city. As the night gradually fell, the Latins did not dare to continue to advance rashly. After all, it was very dangerous to fight in the narrow space at night. In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, the Latins chose to retreat temporarily. In their opinion, they had occupied the outer city and caused the surrounding water to be scattered, and the Greeks inside could not escape.

"Mr. Alexander." In the military tent, Earl Senna of the vassal state of Achaia and Maximi, the Grand Duke of Athens, came here to accept the summons of King Alexander.

"You are here." Alexander smiled at the two who came, "Thank you for the daytime battle."

"Your Majesty, what are you saying, this is what we should do." Maximilian said flatteredly. It was too late to be grateful to Alexander. Since the death of Duke Otto, the Duchy of Athens was declining in his hands, and he would have completely become a vassal of Agrignon. If it weren't for Alexander's arrival, he would have to humiliate and surrender to the Greeks.

However, Earl Senna, who was standing beside him, looked coldly at the fat German man beside him with a hint of mockery. Such a simple-minded guy couldn't even hear others' slander.

"His Excellency Senna," Alexander, who had been keeping a polite smile, turned his head and suddenly asked, "You seem to be thinking about something else, can you tell me what it is?"

"Yes, your majesty. I am considering why the Greeks were not moving at this time." Earl Senna replied calmly.

"Oh, then what do you think? Tell me it." Alexander became interested in the judgment of Earl Senna and asked immediately.

Earl Senna nodded and said slowly: "At this time, I think the Greeks in Mestras should have received the news here, and Justinian has formed an alliance with the Pizza people and cannot do without the support of the Pizza people, so it is absolutely impossible to sit idly by here. And this is our opportunity."

"What opportunity?" A little surprised by what Earl Senna said, Alexander asked him to continue.

And Count Senna's next words immediately made Alexander happy.

"Since we can guess the enemy's next moves, we can wait for the Greeks to fall into the trap. Please stop the attack on Argos City, and send cavalry to patrol the Greeks outside Argos City to investigate the movements of the Greeks, and set up an ambush. Once Greek troops approach here, they will inevitably be eager to rescue the besieged Argos City, which is not too late to take care of the rest. Then it will be our opportunity. If we can take this opportunity to defeat the Greeks' main force in one fell swoop, then the entire Moria will definitely be taken into your pocket."

As soon as these words were spoken, Alexander couldn't help but lit up. Compared to Nafplion, who took down the Pisa people, it was undoubtedly more attractive to defeat the Greek main force here in one fell swoop.

After looking deeply at the Earl Senna in front of him, Alexander nodded. No wonder the lord of the current vassal state of Achaia is a child, but he can still hold on without destruction. Obviously, this man is the pillar of the vassal state of Achaia.

"Okay, then Duke Maximilian, you are responsible for the defense in the northeast, leaving only the cavalry and some infantry companies, and are responsible for cutting off the connection between Argos and Nafplion. As for Earl Senna, I will hand over the three companies in my army to you, and you will be responsible for the southwest direction. The Serbian cavalry under my command will also be handed over to you to command and investigate the movements of the Greeks in the south. Once the Greek army comes, the Duke Maximilian's army and I will come to support immediately and defeat them in one fell swoop."
