At the arrival of the 1104th A.D., spring bloomed from the winter snow and buds, the Anatolian plateau was repaved with green meadows and colorful gardens, the small lakes in the oases were unfrozen, and the carcasses of the livestock and people of Danishmond and Sagetus, who had frozen last year, began to decay and dissolve rapidly, nourishing the bright and shining flowers, and the clouds shining like scattered pearls in the blue sky.

In the palace of Tarsus, which is constantly expanding and getting bigger, Caesiana wears a purple robe and holds a golden scepter to handle a large number of files, a fresh spring breeze blows from the verdant woodland leading to the new port of St. Paul's Nyport, and the nightingale flying from the spired cross of the new St. Paul's church will pass through the pillars and stone windows, and land on Caesar's table to sip water, but always be on guard against the attack of two pet cats.

Anna in her spare time. Ducasse would go out into the terrace and look around at the newly built "Agaren Palace" (where Madame Shahname lived), "Calleadeo Palace" (Madame Ingrid), "Danish Palace" (where Prince Sven's wife Florina lived), and the newly completed "Palazzo Namfihon", where her sister Dedo had just moved in.

These small palaces, which were part of the court of Tarsus, were mostly large mansions made of three-fold limestone, with a quiet courtyard with stone pine, champs or citrus trees, as well as hot springs and small baths, and walls without large windows facing the restored "Roman Avenues of Thalsus", while on the periphery of the avenues were more small mansions, mostly inhabited by officers, engineers, craftsmen, merchants, and officials who had served the state.

In the bustling markets, churches and barns of the revival era, where the widened and dredged river meanders through and tints the city golden in the setting sun, farther in the fields and farmsteads, the colourful tent camps of river workers are struggling to dig and connect the rivers.

In the reeds at the mouth of the city of Zefelim, the restored stone gate of Cleopatra (where Cleopatra went ashore to meet Antony) looked like a white sesame seed in the eyes of Anna in the distance. In the future, a lighthouse will be erected next to this stone gate as a landmarker for the location of the new port.

Since Anna's return, the 40,000 inhabitants of Tarsus, a rapidly growing city, have finally settled on their hearts, and they have put on beautiful clothes and picnics in the riverbanks and woodlands in the bright spring light.

Sometimes, after dark, Anna, Florina, Hertomia, and others would play two "bridges" in the court, which were printed on a new printing press, and Gawain was in charge of making the rules, and everyone had a great time, which was indeed a weapon to kill time. At the same time Ingrid and Chiser would join in, and now the widow was constantly complimenting Anna and began to know how to lose her cards skillfully, mainly in the hope that Fort Calle Adio would introduce advanced Anglas sheep, and that she would expand the wool weaving industry, or else the Pauline synagogue would rob her of great profits.

Amid the heat of the game and the conversation of the women, the situation on the northern front of Anatolia suddenly became tense.

Grand Earl Merlot had already commanded the troops of Bramson, Monomachus, Biller, Orson and other generals, and arrived at the valley under the stone walls of Amasya, and set up a siege camp.

The battle flag of the Black Madonna fluttered at the head of the city, and General Theodoro stood there, overlooking the bag-shaped river valley, and the yellow and turbid river crossed it, and on both sides there were groups of Tarsus soldiers, holding all kinds of bright flags, with the beat of the drums and the melodious sound of the recorder, slowly and rigorously advancing, "It seems to be Gawain's main force?" ”

Hearing the questions of his staff, Theodoro squinted his eyes and saw that in the dusty rear of the enemy, many Daxia camels and Bithynian cattle began to pull various vehicles and tied up equipment, and soldiers were already digging up dirt on the hill and starting to build gun emplacements.

In the distance, you can still see the crimson tent.

"In a few days, let's see how the enemy fires...... You get it. Theodoro clenched his sweaty palms and said in a calm voice.

Three days later, the sound of giant siege guns shook the entire Amasya Valley.

And a large force of the enemy began to maneuver along the eastern side of the Harris River, in order to avoid the city of Amasya, and to make a detour back to Pravel, and to engage in fierce fighting with the peasant cavalry regiments of Trabzon.

"This cannon, there is no doubt that Gawain himself has come to attack Amasya. Once this place is lost, Gawain will be able to storm my base. Tell David, the builder, to send troops to help me defend it. ”

In the city of Kutaisi, David, the builder of the old general's "emergency military intelligence", threw the letter paper on the Bible reading platform and said "absurdly" disapprovingly.

"A few stone bullets flew from somewhere, and they shouted that it was Gawain's main force attacking the city on the other side...... My uncle is also the lion of the entire Trabzon, the general of the whole Trabzon, why is his spirit so weak now? He actually asked me to personally take all the royal legions and Cuman cavalry and cross the sea to reinforce him. With more than 10,000 elites, they didn't dare to fight in the field with Gawain's besieging army, only knowing what to shout about Gawain's main force, Gawain's main force is coming, and he only knows how to keep Amasya City. ”

Mentor St. Oak George walked over, "The city of Amasya is indeed very important. ”

"If Gawain doesn't break Prussa, it can be said to be very important. But now Amasya is not so critical, on the contrary, I suggested that my uncle simply abandon this place and Chardia completely, shrink back to the Pontus Mountains, and defend the pass with natural danger, even if Gawain rushes in, he can only slowly gnaw along the plain that spreads out in a word, and he can't give full play to his military superiority. But he didn't pay any attention to me. David was indignant, feeling that it was too regrettable that the other party did not understand his strategy.

"So, what about asking Emperor John to send troops?"

"My intelligence network says that John actually went to the city of Ragusa to negotiate with the Venetians in the city of Rome, and asked for the arbitration of the patriarch of the city of Rome, or reinforcements from Western mercenaries, but begged that Gawain would not cross the Marimara Sea. Another ridiculous guy. David's tone was even more full of disdain and contempt, and his heart was now faintly heavy, and his eyes were fixed on the sands of Great Armenia, Sylván, Alan (East Georgia), and the land of Georgia.

Out of the belligerence of youth, he provoked Gawain too early, and now he couldn't help but be a little nervous and scared - he knew that Gawain's most elite brigades were gathered near Melitane, "I always felt that Gawain was coming to attack me directly." ”

"Then you won't be able to support Amasya?"

"There was only one table, but there were guests who could fill two tables. Now the initiative is in Gawain's hands. The young king sighed.
