Near the city of Constantinople, the capital of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire, in the military camp of the Chinese Empire, the general of the Zhenguo Dynasty, Lin An, summoned the Jinyi Guard who was lurking in the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire.

Lin An told the Jinyi guards that they must always pay attention to any movement in Constantinople of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire.

As long as there is an envoy who looks like the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire comes out, let the Jinyi Guard kill this group of people, so that the town ** soldiers can seize the island of Crete of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire.

The Jinyi Guard, who was in charge of lurking in Constantinople, the capital of the Byzantine Empire in Eastern Rome, obeyed the orders of Lin An, the general of the Zhenguo, and kept an eye on every move in Constantinople.

……

In the imperial palace of Constantinople (New Rome), the capital of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire, the emperor of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire, Basil. Macedonia and Princess Anatasya sent away the emissaries of the Bolgar Khanate and the Cuman Khanate.

Basil. When Macedonia saw the emissaries of the Bolgar Khanate and the Cuman Khanate leaving, he looked at his daughter Princess Anatasya with a long sigh and said:

"Anastasia, if only your two brothers were like you, they are really worrying to me!

I'm so worried that when I go to heaven, your two brothers will destroy our Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire! ”

Princess Anastasia heard Basil. Macedonia said this, she looked at her father Anantasia suspiciously, she didn't speak, she lowered her head and didn't know what she was thinking.

Basil. Macedon's eyes narrowed slightly, and he suddenly said to Anastasia: "O Anastasia, my daughter, what do you say if I hand over the throne of the Roman Empire to you?"

Princess Anastasia, I think you are more capable than your two brothers, and you are younger than them,

I think you can lead our Roman Empire to the top! Of course, the premise of this is that we will defeat the Chinese Empire this time.

Otherwise, these things are as illusory as the white clouds in the sky, but I still want to ask you,

Anastasia, are you willing to carry our Roman Empire after my death? ”

Basil. Macedon's words made Princess Anastasia's body tremble slightly, and Her Royal Highness the princess of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire hurriedly said to Basil. Macedonia waved its hand:

"Father, the handover of the country to choose an heir can't be so careless and so casual, the daughter is inferior to the two elder brothers, and the military strategy is not as good as theirs. My daughter thinks that the next emperor of our Roman Empire should still be chosen among the two elder brothers. ”

Basil. Macedonia raised an eyebrow and stared at Anastasia tightly, confirming whether Anastasia's words were true.

But Basil. Macedonia found that Anastasia did not shy away, but raised her head to look directly at herself.

Basil. Macedonia did not see in Anastasia's eyes any unpleasant feelings.

Basil. Macedonia knew that either Anatasya was such a person who was the same as the inside and outside, or that Anastasia was a very hidden person.

But Basil. Macedonia didn't care, he wished that Anantasia was a person who was very hidden.

If Anastasia is really a person who hides deeply, then Basil. Macedonia has to admire her daughter.

After all, he's Basil. Macedonia was originally an ambitious, scheming, and calculating man. Macedonia is such a person, so if Basil. Macedonia became emperor of the Byzantine Empire in Eastern Rome.

If Anastasia was also such a person, and Anastasia's thoughts would not be taken by Basil. Macedonia saw it.

Then Basil. Macedonia really has to admire his daughter.

Anastasia and Basil. The Macedonian father and daughter looked at each other for a long time. Macedonia suddenly laughed: "Hahaha, hahaha, worthy of being my daughter, like me, like me, haha!" ”

Basil. Macedonia patted Anastasia on the shoulder with satisfaction and smiled happily.

Anastasia frowned at Basil. Macedonia said, "Father, what does my daughter want to ask you?"

Basil. Macedonia waved his hand at Anastasia curiously and casually and said, "Oh? Anastasia, what do you want to ask me? ”

Anastasia frowned at Basil. Macedonia said: "Father, since you have formed an alliance with the Bolgar Khanate and the Cuman Khanate, but you said that you will bring allies to the Bolgar Khanate and the Cuman Khanate, what should we do?"

Basil. Macedonia suddenly realized: "Oh? Anastasia: are you talking about the governor of the Republic of Venice, the king of the Kingdom of Bulgaria and the king of the Kingdom of Armenia? ”

Anastasia pursed her lips and nodded, "Well, how are we supposed to talk to them?" ”

Basil. Macedonia waved his hand indifferently: "The Republic of Venice is now a vassal state of our Roman Empire, we can just let them come over."

And the king of the Kingdom of Bulgaria, I only need to call him, he will come, he was scared by me.

In the end, the king of the Kingdom of Armenia was simpler, after all, I did not annex Armenia in the first place, but gave them Armenian protection, and the king of Armenia will come. ”

Anastasia asked in a low voice, "Then father, when are we going to bring the three of us?" Didn't you say time was running out? ”

Basil. Macedonia thought about it with a frown when he heard Anastasia's words, and finally he decided to send people to call the people of the Kingdom of Armenia, the Kingdom of Bulgaria, and the Republic of Venice at once.

Basil. Macedonia asked Anastasia to consult with Armenia, Bulgaria, and the king and governor of the Republic of Venice in his place.

In addition to this, Basil. Macedonia also sent envoys to inform the governors of the provinces of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire and the generals of the various military towns that the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire had officially broken the alliance with the Chinese Empire.

The Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire and the Chinese Empire were about to enter a state of war.

In addition to this, the Eastern Roman Byzantine Emperor Basil. Macedonia also ordered an envoy to be sent to summon Lin An, the commander of the Chinese Imperial Town.

However, Basil. What Macedonia didn't know was that about 70 percent of his orders were detected by the brocade guards lurking in Constantinople.

After Jinyiwei's analysis, they immediately intercepted and killed the envoys of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire who were going to the Greek military towns, the Aegean Islands, and Crete.

Then he secretly followed the envoy sent by the Byzantine Emperor of Eastern Rome to inform the general of Zhenguo, Lin An, and arrived at the town ** military camp.
