Eagle Byzantium

Only then did Joceland regain his composure. He brought the wine glass back to his lips and beard, and smiled slyly, "This is exactly the oath I made to serve Duke Godfrey. Now I can hand it over to the Lord." I feel very happy to realize it in the hands of the sponsor. ." Then, he suddenly stepped forward and half-knelt in front of Gawain, "I am willing to donate all the land in my hometown of Courtenay to become your property as the great hospital and patron of Seleucia. I also volunteer. Join the Jinshu Medical Brotherhood of the Big Hospital..."

"Frankly speaking, the brothers I sent out to your hometown do not have a high opinion of the land in your hometown, and the investment and return are not proportional... You also know that I have some knowledge of the fertile and barren land in West Francia, as well as its vastness, narrowness, and distance. .....But since you insist, I can accept it and send three or four brothers who are good at farming and accounting to help you take care of the land. They have become very productive, and I have them recorded in the account books, and handed over to you intact. Also, the Brotherhood is not affiliated with the Eustace family, as Brother Godfrey and I have long ago said. There is a statement, but I will still write the recommendation letter. Even if Baldwin will complain about me, I hope that you Eustace can eliminate the misunderstandings and barriers and move forward together. "

"Thank you for your kindness!" Qiao Celan looked very touched, "I have a suggestion for the upcoming second expedition..." Just as he said this, Gawain suddenly raised his hand and said to him "What you said, Your Excellency Joceland, has exceeded the limits of what the Duke of Lower Lorraine's military commander can say. Let us spend the rest of this banquet in music and wine - musicians and dancers!"

After nightfall, in the bath palace room in the Seleucia Pavilion, several wandering orioles walked out of the room wrapped in silk scarves and bath towels. The Joceland brothers burped from wine and lay exhausted on the bed. , "Be happy, my brother! After the fun just now, say goodbye to the world west of Seleucia, the sanctimonious monk , stupid farmers, unattractive women with roundworms on their butts, say goodbye to them once and for all. We are going to have a go in the Levant, which is full of money and glory!" After that, **** Joe! Selan picked up the small amber cup, drank the last sip of wine, laughed and fell on the mattress, falling asleep.

The next day, in the palace room of the Acropolis, Gawain was holding a scroll in his hand, and Samuelfa and his wife were standing by his side. "What do you think of that weird guest, Joceland?"

"I have given him a fee to take a boat directly to the city of Antioch. Don't go to Adana to bother Mrs. Gottschild and her newborn son. It will be good for everyone. Yes Grana Love, I knew he was ambitious, but it was nothing surprising. He gave me a more complete plan for the upcoming Pilgrim expedition. I like capable people. "Gawain unfolded the book, "I, who is now taking in Masud, have completely fallen out with Chief Danishmund. It is said that in the north of Cappadocia, the Danishmond military colony has suddenly increased its harassment and attacks on Karon. Get up. I must also go to the city of Tarsus as soon as possible to take command and reinforce Reinstein - this place is left to you and your wife. If you have anything, you can discuss it with the Holy Sister."

"Yes, most of the craftsmen in the Ordnance Department have not moved, including the workshops in the Mutt Valley, which are operating at full capacity."

"How many iron fire rods did we spend in the camping battle in Milio Cephalon?"

"About four hundred and fifty, one hundred of which accidentally exploded while defending the city."

Hearing the words of the Director of the Ordnance Department, Gawain immediately thought of the horrific scene that could be imagined at that time. The Holy Sister was watching from the side, and she was almost killed and injured. He couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude and uneasiness in his heart, "In the future, Holy Sister is not allowed to come to inspect the workshop. In addition, the latest manufacturing and storage?"

"We are sending 1,200 hand-thrown iron fire poles, 40 Khitan fire tubes, and 400 Khitan snow paper tubes to Zephyrim's military camp warehouse for storage, as well as 300 large Throwing iron fire poles has passed the test, It can be mounted on a five-barreled cannon and is also sent to the military port. Andreev and Jarguba are also testing Khitan fire weapon launchers suitable for naval battles to prepare for the ready-to-move hot ducks and ducks. Pisa fleet."

"Very good, you continue production. Leotius will accompany the army to Tarsus. I am going to draw 400 people from the Armenian logistics troops, plus 200 Pauline believers, and continue to train them for him. Form an independent 'red-hand fire-throwing detachment'." After that, Gawain stood up with the hilt of his sword and formally said goodbye to the couple.

"It's a pity that I can't attend the wedding between Your Highness and Princess Ziyi." The female doctor said with a smile.

"Hush, Anna herself doesn't know about this yet!" Gawain quickly put his fingers on his beard and smiled mischievously.

A few days later, in the former emir's palace in Tarsus (both Gawain and Anna declined the request to build a new palace because the entire country's financial and military expenses were now very tight), the worship room surrounded by gardens was transformed into Anna's new palace. In the study room, the "Prince of the Red Sea" was lying on Anna's shoulder, with his tail like a flagpole erect and his eyes like bells staring at the letter in the princess's hand with seriousness.

Soon the girl from the Orson family came over. As soon as the cat saw this person, it jumped off Anna's shoulder very wisely and slipped out of the small hole in the wall to bask in the sun. A smart cat would naturally know this. Who should not be messed with? This Orson girl is obviously at the top of the list of people to be afraid of.

"Your Highness Princess, I must remind you that if you are pregnant, you should avoid touching these hairy beasts." Hertomia said seriously, and then put down a stack of documents, "New news from the Levant intelligence."

"Raymond is advancing very fast!" Anna read the document for a while and then summed up the information from all aspects. "Bohemond has just arrived at Argyll Castle in the south of Antioch. Raymond and Gover Lei immediately captured Jubail, and all ten thousand Crescent residents in the city were massacred by the former, and the library was completely burned. This guy is really an out-and-out barbarian, even more barbaric than Bohemond. It’s just killing people, but burning books is simply outrageous An unforgivable evil deed." Anna said quickly, then spread out the map, "Argyle, Latakia, Tartus, and Jubail are all in less than two months. Below are Tripoli, Sidon, Tyre, Acre, Mount Carmel, Haifa, Jaffa, Ptolemy, Ramla... The pagan lords here will never dare to continue to resist, Zhu Byler's terrible end is just around the corner. Is it true that the Crescent Cultists have run out of strength?"

"How did the Prime Minister of Babylon (Egypt's Fatimid Dynasty) Afdel react? Did he really want to hand over the Holy City to the hands of the Franks and Normans without bloodshed?" Hertomia asked. (To be continued ~^~)
