Dedo heard her sister's words, and immediately got up, grabbed Anna's hand in front of her knee, confessed her mistake, and begged her sister to let her go. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"So, if you were with Gawain in the first place, how could he be where he is today?" With a triumphant tone, Anna touched the top of Dedo's hair.

"I have given up my wild illusions, and I am willing to stoop to be your servant, and I will take Theodore to the new house of Tarsus to-morrow, but I beg you not to let Brenus go to Crete." Daido tears rippled.

Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Anna changed to a gentle tone, "I understand your intentions. In this way, Brenus will no longer hold a military position, and I will appoint him as Misia. The herdsmen of Lydia are concentrated on internal affairs, and his men are combined with the soldiers and horses of Arcro Borites and Bekus, and a new brigade of 7,000 men is formed to besiege the enemy fortress on the island of Lespersia, and the brigade commander I will arrange the selection of people. Do you think that's okay? ”

"At the disposal of His Highness Caesar." Naturally, Dai Duo would not refuse.

"Good." Anna touched her sister's cheek lovingly, "Don't paint me as a banshee again, I'm a wise and generous holy apostle!" ”

Dedo bowed her head in horror and said yes repeatedly, and said that in the future, she would use all her resources to sponsor the frescoes of the Orthodox monastery in the entire Caleadio Mountains, and paint the portrait of her sister on it, the kind with a golden ring on her head.

"In any case, it is a very appropriate arrangement for Brenus to be disposed of by the civil administration." After a while, Gawain pretended not to understand anything and had just woken up, and when his wife told him what had just happened, he decided not to make any more trouble, and complimented Annafan, "It's just that the other side of Crete is really tricky." ”

Hearing this, Anna was a little ashamed.

After all, the Cretan rebels had risen up in faith in her promises, but were defeated by the Venetian intervention army, as Gawain had predicted.

Now even Rhode Island can't be beaten.

However, Gawain did not continue to blame her now, but said to her, "Actually, it is better that the Cretan uprising failed in the end. ”

These words made Anna a clever one, she stood up with a star, walked to Gawain's side, thought about it, and seemed to understand, "Big barbarian, what do you mean, as long as the land and people, not nobles......"

Gawain stood under the tapestry, caressing the bronze incense burner, the top lid was a small lion with extremely delicate carvings, and said, "The new Roman Empire in the future really does not need this kind of great nobleman who occupies the mountain, isn't this our policy in the same vein?" So it's good to let Venice occupy Crete temporarily...... It and the nobles on the island slowly fought each other, so even if in the bloody war, 50,000 people died in Crete, and 100,000 people died, it didn't have much to do with it, but it was better. The rioting Crete will become a poisonous bone that the Venetians cannot swallow or spit out, and the flesh of the city-state will be exhausted. When the time comes, our own fleet will be fully established, and we will be able to reap the benefits. When our flag is there, foreign traders and immigrants will come and make the big island prosperous again. ”

"Aren't you afraid that the Venetians will use it as a springboard to threaten Samos and Misia?"

Gawain laughed at Anna's concern, "The pigs of St. Mark's City are just a herd of pigs in the sea, and in my eyes on land, they are indeed a herd of pigs to be slaughtered." Moreover, now that the old consul Fleille, who has sight and insight, has stumbled, I have taken advantage of the past two years to throw away some meat to give these pigs a taste of sweetness, so that they will continue to embrace the greedy Pierrot. Kona: Okay. Anna, let's go light and concentrate on pacifying Greater Armenia, Trabzon, and Georgia, and then I'll use the island of Cyprus as a springboard to take all of Tripoli with a new fleet, isn't that our plan? ”

"The Imperial Capital?"

"The road to the imperial capital has been opened, but don't be impatient, maybe it will fall into your hands like a ripe golden apple in the future." Gawain said, turning to take his wife's hands, "I'm sorry, I'm expecting another expedition next spring." ”

"I will take good care of the children and take care of the country." Anna stepped forward and hugged her husband's generous arms, "I have thought about it, the future surname of Khlistopher is, of course, Gawain. If I can outlive you in the future, I will definitely protect our empire. ”

"Then I'll rest assured......"

At this time, Anna, who was caressing her hair, rolled her eyes, "By the way, the four thousand soldiers of the old department of Brenus really don't go to Crete, do you want to go to attack the island of Repos?" ”

"No, the order to go to Crete will continue in three days." Gawain gave such an answer.

Within three days of the official order, Gawain was seated in the city of Prusa and ordered fifty officers and men from each of the Hierapolis Brigade, the Lydian Frontier Army, and the Bithynian Frontier Army to be selected for further study at the Military Academy of St. Mikhail, Tarsus. ”

Then he selected more than 100 people from among the tax collectors of the old empire and the overseers of the Plonian estate (in the golden age of the Byzantine Empire, the number of noble officials in the whole country was between 3,000 and 4,000), and sent them to the University of St. Paul or the Smyrna Law School for further study. ”

After this was done, Gawain sent an order to the camp of the Lydian border army on time, "The commander of the original general, the Grand Duke of Nanfihong, Brenus, has gone to Misia to carry out his orders. So now Count Riccapanus (father of the fat lady Eudora) was appointed acting commander, and the whole army immediately set out to fight in Rhodes. ”

The directive was clear, but it provoked a mutiny.

Many border soldiers gathered around the various soup pots in the camp and made noise and suspicion: "We have also made great contributions in the siege of Prussa, why is it that the great guarantor not only does not give us the holy land like other brigades and border soldiers, but transfers the Grand Duke of Brenus, sends an outsider to rule over us, and sends everyone to the stormy island?" ”

Then there was an uproar, "Be fair, be just!" We are willing to be born and die for the great lord, but we don't want to be pawns and not be able to share the holy sage. ”

As soon as it was passed on to ten, ten, and hundred, many of them stood up directly and kicked over their respective soup pots with their feet.

Kicking the soup pot, this is tantamount to a sign of army mutiny.

The 4,000 Lydian border militia began to occupy the camp, closed the roads inside and outside, and detained half of the Gawain forbidden soldiers, expelled the remaining half, and officially declared a mutiny, chanting the slogan "We also want the Holy Warriors".
