Of course, since the Venetians and the remnants of John still held the key between the Aegean Sea and the eastern Mediterranean, and the merchant ships could only travel between Atalia and Tarsus, Brenus demanded that they use the vacated hold for the purchase of grain at Adana after unloading, and the Earl of Burke, who had remained there of Baldwin, graciously agreed, and announced that seventy percent of the stored grain would be sold to Brenus's fleet at a reasonable price. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The assistant in the city of Tarsus began to follow Brenus's instructions to organize and transport the ships in turn to maintain maximum efficiency and the best condition. In addition, several assistant officers, together with the local brocade brotherhoods, with the cooperation of the people's army, severely cracked down on speculation and strictly forbade the ports to sell grain, whether wheat or rice, to foreign countries.

The caravans owned by the frontier of several overarchies were also collected and escorted ashore with grain from Atalia through the highland routes of Laudisia, Dolilaem, and Prusa, and then by the strait to the great barn of the imperial capital.

On the north side, Brenus also set up an office, passing through Fascis to requisition grain from Georgia, Shirvan, Kherson and Armenia, and then send it by ship to the port of Media or the Bosphorus, and pull it to the restored barn.

Thanks to the fruitful work of Breñus (even Anna praised the man who was a very capable ruler as long as he was not present on the battlefield), the capital was quickly plentiful, and most of the food he bought came from the east, and it did not consume the grain production in the places of Bithynia, Misia, and Lydia, where the grain produced could be supplied to the three brigades (Redhand, Optkin, and Nika) in the vicinity, avoiding unnecessary losses on the way.

Gawain, who was satisfied with the work of his brother-in-law, announced: "The original Grand Palace, which no longer exists as the seat of the imperial court, is to be renovated with a huge 'Grand Bazaar' with a cloister, which will replace the position of the bull market, and now all the grain sales and rationing work in the capital are concentrated here." ”

Every day after that, grain was transported out of the barn in a procession to the "Grand Palace Cloister Market" to be sold, and "those in the rest of the capital who dared to buy, sell, and process grain without permission were severely beaten and even hanged on the spot." "Beriel and Giovanni personally oversaw the great market, which was full of robes, cash-wielding merchants and guild representatives, and laborers walking around with sacks of grain, and the fires in the bread workshops of the capital began to light everywhere, and the hearts of the 100,000 people in the whole capital gradually calmed down at the sight of the fragrant smoke coming from the chimneys.

But that's not the end of the story.

After the middle of the tax month, although the fortresses outside the capital were fought by the garrison and the Berding rebels, Anna went to the church of the Holy Apostles, which was built by her father himself on the north side of the stone pillar of Masina, and presided over the "great plan of officials".

The church was then declared the seat of the Executive Yuan, and the second week after the month of taxation was to be held in time for the "grand plan" of the districts of the empire, with one hundred and fifty graduates of the colleges, seventy members of the Brocade Brotherhood, forty officers of the Confession (all of whom had been expelled from the kingdoms), nearly two hundred and fifty officials who had nothing to do in the capital, and, of course, thirty attendants selected from the Inner Palace, concentrated in the Basilica of the Holy Apostles.

For five consecutive days, from morning till night, Anna worked tirelessly to select and award the more than 500 people one by one, and to give them the appropriate grades and positions, "half of them went to Thrace and Macedonia to supervise the farming and workshops, and to purchase all the grain that existed." Half of them are stationed in various official residences of the new empire to enrich the operation staff. Three years later, the second big plan will be held! When the time comes, it will no longer be just an award, a promotion that should be promoted, a promotion that should be promoted, and a dethronement that should be degraded! ”

From then on, the official positions of the Roman Empire began to be examined on the move.

"I could have lived to be eighty years old, but after this great plan, I am afraid that I will live five years less, may the Virgin Mary have mercy on me." Extremely tired, Barcelisa lay down on the couch and complained to her husband who was paying attention to the map table.

However, Gawain was also very anxious during this time: the Bulgarian rebels broke out of the mountains where they lived, and began to attack along the rivers Evros and Veleka, sometimes approaching Vize, sometimes turning to Adrianople, and destroying and plundering towns and taking away men and animals.

Gawain was determined to launch a limited counterattack in the autumn to counter the rebels' arrogance. He appointed Merlot as general, and restrained the Janissary cavalry of Diognis and Evraimius, and two regiments of Red Hand cavalry swept west along the mouth of the Evros River, breaking through the burning of more than a dozen Bulgarian rebel camps, until Adrianople.

At the same time exciting news came, Macaulinus. When this batch of grain was delivered to Adrianople, the local overseer Biller immediately led 2,000 border infantry (mostly adapted from the old division of Cezes), and cooperated with Merlot's task force, and the troops divided into two routes, and counterattacked and destroyed a large camp of the Bulgarian rebels, rescued more than 1,000 captive men and women, and forced the rebels to shrink back to the mountains north of Thrace.

Biller and Merlot's combined forces then maneuvered down the river to reinforce Fort Philip in the upper northeast corner, where they joined the Hierapolis Brigade and broke through the besieging camp of Berdin, the enemy's general and son of Berdin. Berdin withdrew to Serbia with his defeated army.

Thus in the early winter, the situation in the whole of Constantinople turned from one to the safest, both military and food. Coupled with the end of the seaworthiness season in the Yukxing Sea and the Holy Sea, there will be no more threats from the sea, Gawain and Anna can recharge their batteries and concentrate on waiting for the good news of Anderodat on the Eastern Front.

In front of the city of Tyre, Androdat besieged the war of attrition for more than half a year, and finally ushered in a decisive attack.

"In one go, we want to take this city in half a month!" Mushroom-headed Androdart waved his fist to express his determination, and although his figure was thin, his recent exploits and skills had given him enough prestige in the barracks to calmly dispatch the veterans.

The city of Tyre was divided into two sides: the outer city and the inner city.

But the outer city is on land, while the inner city is on the sea.

In between, there was a sand and swamp soaked in seawater, about a waist or a knee deep, but there was no doubt that it was very difficult to walk, not to mention the high tide, which would be completely submerged and all the horses on it would be drowned.

At that time, the only way to access the inner city was the embankment, which became known as the "Alexander Stone Embankment".
