Eagle Flag of Epirus

"Is this what you paid for?" The tall and burly Teutonic knight leaned on his horse and looked at the young Varangian man who was blocking him. Although the heavy helmet blocked his face, Igor was still able to get out of the way. In the playful tone of the other party, he guessed the expression under his visor at this time.

Holding the reins, Varangi, who was not afraid, replied calmly: "Yes, Your Excellency Maximilian, this is indeed the best condition we can give at the moment. As long as you are willing to join us in the crusade against the Dukas family. The rebels, Lord Justinian expressed his willingness to help you return to your homeland, so I hope you and your subordinates can consider it."

"What nonsense."

Maximilian threw away the reins displeased, and asked, "Do you think that we came all the way back from the Holy Land to help a group of Greeks fighting in dens? The honor of the Teutonic knights is not wasted on such frivolous things. In return, we have already fought back the Bulgars for you. As for other things, we are not interested, and now we just parted ways." The Teutonic knight had already made up his mind. I owe the Doria family a favor. Now that it has been written off, he naturally won't stay longer when there are more important things to accomplish.

However, Igor did not let go of the reins, and said coldly, "Your Excellency Maximilian, but if you insist on doing this, I think you and your subordinates will regret making this decision in the future."

As soon as these words came out, the knights of the Teutonic Knights looked at each other, first stunned, and then burst into laughter.

Even the unsmiling Maximilian himself was amused by the young Varangi's sudden threat. In his opinion, the other party's remarks were just a helpless vent. I don't care. However, as a Teutonic knight, even a weak threat was unacceptable. Amidst the roar of laughter, the man still pulled out the saber from his waist and pointed at the opponent.

"Do you regret it? I want to take a look now. Varangian people, you don't have to come out and speak madly, let the so-called 'little fox' behind you stand up by himself, and you don't have to hide its head and show its tail."

Seeing that little Igor was in danger, the Ross sailors on the left and right could not stand immediately. They had experienced life and death together in Kherson, and of course they could not do anything. Yaroslav immediately let the brothers around him pick up the guy with a loud voice, and it was not until a voice sounded that prevented the conflict between the two sides from breaking out.

"I heard that you want to see me, Your Excellency Maximilian?" Justinian said aloud, only to see him in a drapery following the Vadaretai guards coming here. Seeing this scene, both the Teutonic knights and the Ross sailors couldn't help but put down their weapons.

Obviously, Justinian came prepared, and Maximilian didn't want to continue to be tough when he saw this, but chose to reason peacefully. "I think my attitude was obvious just now, sir. After helping you defeat the Bulgarians, there is no relationship between us now. It should be our right for me and my men to leave Thessaloniki."

"I don't deny this. The whole city and even all the people of Rome will remember your past achievements. You can indeed leave and return to your homeland at any time." Justinian said very politely, and did not want to stay.

And such a big change in attitude surprised Maximilian. He thought he was going to talk to the eloquent Greeks again, but he didn't expect the result to be so simple. Seeing that the opportunity could not be missed, the Teutonic knight nodded immediately, "If that's the case, then it's better." After that, the man greeted his subordinates behind him and prepared to set off. But Justinian's next sentence caught Maximilian, who had been complacent, by surprise.

"Unfortunately, if you really think that you can get the Holy See's forgiveness by being a thug against the Cumans at the invitation of the Hungarian king, I can only say that this is undoubtedly a stupid decision."

Looking coldly at the back of the Teutonic Knights, Justinian said indifferently, but this seemingly casual sentence was enough to make the other party's heart set off a storm.

In fact, as expected, the Teutonic knight who was about to leave suddenly froze in place, and the shocked Maximilian turned his head to look at Justinian, and even though he was wearing a barrel helmet, Justinian, who was smiling at this time, was also stunned. You can guess the horrified expression on his face at this time.

Sure enough, Justinian calculated the time. In 1211, the Teutonic Knights were invited to Hungary to garrison Burzenland to suppress the Kuman riots. Since then, the prelude to the Teutonic Expedition has directly and completely changed the geography of Eastern Europe. plate, and this major event is only two years away from now. Justinian was certain that Maximilian insisted on returning from here, rather than by sea to Naples, because of the secret pact with the King of Hungary. Seeing the reaction of the Teutonic knights, Justinian was delighted. Sure enough, in this time and space, although many things have undergone chain changes due to his variable, it is more accelerated or delayed rather than fundamentally reversed, which is undoubtedly an advantage for him.

At this time, Maximilian was still shocked by how the other party would know about such a secret matter. It must be known that his departure from the Holy Land for an excuse was a conflict with the Knights Templar on the surface. In fact, the real purpose was to act as a negotiator. No one else should know about it. The way the man looked at Justinian was completely different from before. Moriah's little fox was indeed an unpredictable and unpredictable danger!

Calm down, UU reading www.uukanshu. Com pretending to be calm, Maximilian said in a calm voice: "I don't understand what you mean, Your Excellency Justinian, His Majesty Andrew II has nothing to do with our Teutonic Knights, let alone what you said. What else is involved in whether the Pope forgives or not, not to mention that even so, the long sword of the Paladins was originally forged to destroy the heretics, so how can you regret it?"

The man's answer has become equivalent to admitting Justinian's speculation, and Justinian, who has gained the initiative in this negotiation, finally offered a high price: "I'm afraid the incident in Zara is not just a matter of Innocentism. Zong, even the Magyars will not accept you with confidence. In fact, you yourself know that Andre II and you are just using each other, if you are willing to fight for free against wave after wave of Kuman It’s just people, but once there is any change, the Magyars will expel you without hesitation. That’s why I say that you will regret it in the future.”

"Then you mean..."

"I mean it simply. Why don't you work with me instead? Pagans have never been a rarity in today's torn empire, and you have a great chance to plow your lands without sighing. I think the Teutonic knights Everyone in the regiment should not want to let the two Knights of the Hospital Temple keep pressing you all the time!"

Justinian smiled slightly and handed out the olive branch in his hand to the Teutonic man in front of him. He knew that what he said was an empty promise and possibly Pandora's box, but at this moment he was sure of one thing - today's The worst of Rome will never be now, and the impasse without change will only bring the country to the graveyard step by step.
