Eagle Flag of Epirus - v8 Chapter 104.22

“The Eagle Flag of Epirus (

“Your Majesty, Baron Clavou is here.” Outside the camp, the captain of the bodyguard sent by Emperor Henry led the young little Clavou in. The other nobles present all showed their unhappy expressions, because they were waiting for the man in front of them to arrive. Obviously he was just a baron, but he put a lot of air in front of them, which made the other nobles a bit annoyed.

“Oh, our Lord Knight from Normandy has finally arrived. I think now we can finally talk about business.” A Latin nobleman said with a mocking tone.

Most of those who followed Emperor Henry to conquer the Remnants of Nicaea and the Turks of Roma Sultan were the generals who made great achievements in the Fourth Crusade, and naturally looked down upon a little nobleman from Normandy. They did not understand why Emperor Henry repeatedly insisted that Clevo participate in the war meeting where they discussed how to deal with the Nicaea and Turkic people.

Little Kleivu didn’t know that Baron Kleivu didn’t pay attention to these senior aristocrats. “If discussing the so-called business is also discussing the search for property like a group of bandits, then you really don’t have to wait for me.” Sneered.

What he said was undoubtedly a kind of provocation. The other nobles present changed their faces when they heard it, “What do you mean by this?”

“Literally, if you hadn’t been in Nicaea for so long at that time, this war would have ended long ago, and it would have been impossible to drag it to the present.” Clevoud was ruthless, and accurately said that he had already given it. It was enough to save face and not criticize on the spot. If it hadn’t been for the chaos caused by the Latin nobles looting the city after the capture of Nicaea, Lascaris had no chance to escape into the mountains to seek refuge with the Turks. In the eyes of young people who respect the Crusaders, these nobles who did not go to the Holy Land like the other crusaders but stayed here to enjoy themselves are not honorable.

The two sides were at war, and even if someone stood up and demanded a duel, Little Clay Wu was not afraid of threats, and drew out his sword in front of the public, and he was about to fight.

Until then, the silent Emperor Henry suddenly spoke:

“Put away your swords!”

The emperor who was born in Flandre was not angry with himself. When his voice was enveloped in the camp, Clavou and the nobleman who demanded a duel put away the weapons in their hands. Regarding the emperor, no one dared to question his authority. Although His Majesty Henry inherited the throne from his brother Baldwin, he turned the tide in the battle of Adrianople and defeated Bulgaria’s attempt to attack Constantinople. Emperor Henry was in Romania. The supreme authority has been established in the vassal system.

Even the self-proclaimed Baron Clevoud had to admit that his Majesty Henry was a real knight and a monarch whom the knight longed for allegiance after he had contact with the emperor. This is why he still brought his troops and horses to come this time despite being at odds with other nobles.

Suppressing the friction between the nobles, Emperor Henry said: “I hope that your sword is aimed at your enemy, not your colleagues fighting side by side. I shouldn’t emphasize this point anymore.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

The nobles on the left and right returned to their positions one after another, and Henry of Flandre also ordered someone to look at the little Baron Clevoud who had just brought him. He was blue-eyed for the young man in front of him. The Marquis of Clavou of Normandy was willing to loyal to him with his own soldiers, and relieved the urgent need of the Latin Empire’s insufficient strength. Surprisingly, the water gate of Constantinople was attacked by the Nicaea shortly afterwards. On the way to support, the young Clement was seriously injured and his upper body was burned for most of his life. It was Emperor Henry who visited famous doctors carefully to take care of him before he was rescued. What’s rare is that after healed from his injury, the little Clementine seemed to be a different person, and his temperament was much more calm than before, and he made suggestions for Henry several times. For example, this time the surprise attack on Nicaea was the young man who persuaded him by arguing.

“Well, now the top priority is that we need to discuss what we should do next.” Emperor Henry scanned the vassals in front of him and asked their opinions.

“Of course it was to take Ankara in one breath.” The Latin nobles who only listened to the fight expressed their willingness to fight to the end. They longed for land and wealth, seeing the endless Anatolian plateau hard to suppress the greed in their hearts, they wanted to. Conquer here thoroughly.

But there is no doubt that this is not the answer that the Latin emperor wants. He turned his gaze to the little Clavu and asked:

“What do you think, Lord Clavou?”

It’s this kid again, the dissatisfied noble dare to be angry but dare not speak. Of course all this was in the eyes of little Clement, but he would naturally not pay attention to it.

Hearing only the young man’s answer to his emperor, “It’s already hundreds of miles away from the nearest port. The food and grass in our army can only be transported for several days at the earliest, and we rely heavily on Genoese ships. If Your Majesty feels that if we can’t make a quick fight, retreating is the most appropriate choice now.”

As soon as this remark came out ~www.mtlnovel.com~, there was an uproar in the audience. At this time, the morale of the Latin Empire was in full swing, especially when they fought a big victory in Nicaea. Give up on this kind of joint!

The Latin aristocrats who rallied in the attack immediately criticized the cowardly remarks of Little Clavou, but the young man ignored it at all. He just looked at Emperor Henry and waited for his response.

Henry raised his hand and ordered the nobles below to be quiet. His original intention was to retreat, but the nobles had completely different ideas from him, which made him hesitate. However, Clevoud’s answer just now made him a little interested. Looking at the young man, Emperor Henry asked:

“You just said that if you’re’quick battle and quick decision’, then what you mean is that there is any way to quickly defeat the Greeks and Turks who are shrinking in the city?”

The keen sense made Emperor Henry feel that there was something in the words of Baron Clevoud, and he couldn’t help wondering what surprises he was surprised by the young man who was born with a calf.

The little Kleivu did not say directly, but hinted at his allegiance to his Majesty in front of him and said: “I do have such a method, but as the saying goes, one pair of ears and one mouth are missing. Report.”

Such a request made the faces of other nobles present even more disgusting, but it was not easy to directly object. After all, according to the emperor’s wishes, it seems that this expedition will really end here, so now they have no choice but to do so. He pinched his nose and acquiesced to all this.

Seeing that none of the courtiers objected, Emperor Henry nodded, and then asked the guards to invite other nobles present to rest in another tent, while he talked to Baron Clevoud alone.

“Now, you can tell me your plan, Lord Clavou.”
