Eagle Flag of Epirus - v8 Chapter 85
“It’s all burned, all… there are corpses everywhere.” Obviously this scout’s mental capacity is not good enough, but the words made Justinian realize the seriousness of the matter, and a village was destroyed. Who it is, it may be the handwriting of the robber bandits, but what is more likely, the answer is self-explanatory.
“My lord?” Seeing the lord’s expression dignified, Godric couldn’t help being a little worried.
But Justinian didn’t say much but waved his hand. Godric immediately understood that he would arrange for the messengers behind him to come over, and then the whole army received instructions.
All soldiers speed up the march and are all ready for battle!
Justinian must prepare for the worst. Although Irina Dukas was delayed along the way, the marching speed was fast enough. In addition, the recruitment of Albanian mountain people is not a bad thing, but in case Epirus started faster and the consequences would be unimaginable.
No hesitation was allowed. Under the urging of Justinian’s iron decree, all the soldiers, whether it was Moria’s new army or the Albanian mountain people, all accelerated their pace and hurried to the destination ahead.
Is this what happened?
Despite being exhausted, Irina Dukas, who was still being carried forward by the sergeant by her side, was unknown, and she saw the solemn face of Justinian in front of her from a distance. That was what she saw. The third face of the other party is different from the past, which is frivolous or indifferent and explicit. At this moment, the young man seems to be carrying the mountains and walking forward, and his words and deeds are full of heavy and solid strength. This is Irina Du Cass had never seen it before, whether it was anyone she had met before.
At the back of the army, the Albanians who were also marching also smelled the **** smell of something wrong in the air ahead. Looking at the people under the mountain who were quickening their pace, Bogdani, who led the people of the mountain, couldn’t help muttering. Said: “It looks like something is wrong, this mountain is going to rain again.” The feeling he had experienced before was when he was called to join the Epirus nobles against the invading Bulgarians, and that time he A person escaped from the dead pile. Thinking of this, this man couldn’t help but feel a little confused whether he had promised to bring his compatriots into the army of the mountain people in exchange for it.
…
When Ying Li’s army finally marched to the village where the accident occurred, the scout team in charge of the investigation had already sent people to respond, and the scene before him could be said to be horrible. This is not so much a village as it is a piece of white land. Don’t level up any buildings that can be used. What is left is just a piece of scorched earth. The residents of the village have been counted by the scouts, both men and women, young and old. The property and food inside were all looted, and mules, horses and livestock that were inconvenient to take were slaughtered on the spot. The whole scene looked like a purgatory on earth at a glance, and Justinian finally understood why the scout who rushed back was so excited at the time.
Not many people can do such a thing!
“Could it be the bandit?” The young Godric speculated. After all, this area is an area where banditry is everywhere. There are many groups like Albanian mountain people. Maybe this unfortunate village is. Encountered robbers, and the robbers did not extort satisfactory spoils, so they started a massacre frantically.
But Captain Cardrosse, the father who rushed over from the Chinese Army, shook his head and rejected his son’s guess, “Even robbers can’t do such a terrible thing, especially in this kind of place. There are very few gangsters who can kill them all, just like a fisherman in a shallow sea will not catch all the fry in one net.”
“Is that so?!” Hearing the possibility from his father’s analysis, Godric was shocked. If the Epirus army had arrived here so soon, wouldn’t all their previous efforts have been wasted.
“Master Justinian!” Everyone was at a loss and didn’t know what to do. They all looked at Justinian without saying a word.
Justinian’s face was pale, he took out the map of Epirus that he had obtained from Hendryer. It was very close to the side wall, but in the end it was still a step late, which made him very annoyed. , One trick fell short of carelessness. Since the villages south of the border wall were looted and killed, it is obvious that the border wall defense line should have been breached by the Epirus army at this time, and now the opponent may be rushing towards Agrinion. Once it merges with the rebels, it means that the situation will be very passive to Justinian, not to mention that the Thessaly coalition forces will be attacked by the Venetians at sea, the Agrinion rebels and the Epirus army. The three-way siege, I’m afraid that the nobles at the ends of Thessaly will disintegrate themselves. When they think of this, an anger hits Justinian’s forehead.
“what——!”
Just like an angry lion roaring in the wilderness, Justinian roared up to the sky and kicked a damaged door panel in front of him, and the fragments of the door panel flew far away in response to the sound.
Seeing Justinian’s angry expression, Irina Dukas on the side couldn’t help but blame herself, and couldn’t help but said: “It’s all my fault, if it wasn’t for me to be delayed on the road—” the girl said The eyes were also red.
But at this time, Brother Sergius stood up and said: “It’s not to blame you, Your Highness. It seems that we have all underestimated the determination of His Majesty Mikhail. Although he did not come in person, the one sent The partial teacher is also very strong, and the commander is obviously not the slightest carelessness, and does not leave us a chance to grasp. If it is not for your Highness, Lord Justinian with only a small number of troops will be able to travel through mountains and rivers. There is no chance to win the Epirus.” These words are very pertinent and they are not purely round. After the scouts and reconnaissance just now found the traces of the stove left by the enemy’s living and cooking in the village, it is estimated that the enemy going south has at least up. There are so many people, even if Justinian and his new army of Moria can fight again, there is no chance of winning.
But even with that, how can Justinian calm down his inner emotions? Of course he would not be angry with Irina, a girl ~www.mtlnovel.com~, but the current situation makes him unable to be as calm as before.
Until then, there was a sudden commotion in the army not far away, and the Albanians who were in charge of patrolling the periphery suddenly broke in, and they grabbed a stranger and threw them in front of everyone, saying:
“Just now we saw this guy sneaking around here. When we found out, he immediately ran away. It took us a lot of work to catch it. It’s handed over to you, the people from the mountain.” The mountain people kicked the captive again and walked away cursing.
The stranger who was caught at this time was already bruised and swollen and **** by five flowers. Several Morley soldiers were about to take him to Justinian for questioning. But unexpectedly, the other party was very tough and yelled in a struggle:
“Crazy Epirus people, you will go to **** for what you have done! Waiting for the reinforcements of His Royal Highness Prince Theodor to come, you will all die without a place to be buried!”
The roar of the strange man’s mouth with an astonishing word is clear to everyone, and Justinian’s face changed drastically, and he immediately asked:
“Say it! What did you just mean?”
