Chapter 92: The War for the Return of India

"But Your Royal Highness, this hospital can't just be put on hold......" Before the chief could finish expressing his importance, Gawain took a money bag and hung it around his neck, and then carried him out, "Hurry up, go quickly, all this money is your headhunting fee, if you stay here, then this great hospital will really have to be put on hold indefinitely—soon, the local peasants will drive pigs and dogs in and ask your men to castrate."

"You don't have to be so fierce, you have to do everything step by step." After Gawain pushed and shoved the dean to pay for it, Anna said angrily, "The completion of this big hospital alone is already quite a remarkable achievement. ”

Gawain, who was standing under the arch door, turned his back to Anna, and suddenly laughed, "Also, I ask you Anna - are you ready?" ”

"Hmm!" Anna stared at the tall figure and nodded heavily but resolutely, "I have already commissioned Hertomia to draft a letter to be sent to the Nicene Palace. ”

On the edge of the vast Lake Nicaea, surrounded by the white city wall, in the green palace where the original sultan lived, Dai Duo received a letter from Seleucia, which was covered with Gawain's red hand seal and Anna's Qiling small seal, which was the most formal official document, the little purple princess suddenly felt that her heart was oppressed by some kind of pressure, and she couldn't help but adjust her breathing, took out a paper cutter from the scripture reading platform, opened the envelope, and then took out the smooth Seleucian paper, looking at its tadpole-like words, and then Dai Duo's hand suddenly covered her forehead, Under the screams and support of the maidens, she sat down in her chair gasping for breath, and it was a long time before she uttered these words:

"Send this letter to my father on the front! I, I really can't say it, there can be such shameless men and women in this world! ”

The herald cavalry, who had loaded the letters into leather cylinders, hurried out of Nicaea, passed through the castle of Dollilaem, and after a full day and a night's exhaustion, they finally saw the emperor's camp waving the purple-bordered imperial banner - Alexios had defeated the Konyan Turks in the ravine under the castle of Ferna a month earlier: Sultan Giliki had taken only eight hundred Danishmund mercenary cavalry, lost all his tents and baggage, and fled back to the city of Konya in disarray. He took the opportunity to build many camps, sealed off the mountain fort Fernar inside and out, and forced the Isurian chief Nikitas who was trapped inside to surrender.

The Emperor held his horsewhip and looked at the target castle on the top of the hill with great ambition, his tents and banners all over the gorge, and he also passed through the pass in a row, and stretched to the lake of hot water south of Ferner, where 20,000 strong soldiers besieged the fortress only guarded by mountain bandits with strong fortifications, and the morale was extremely high.

"Son-in-law, after taking Ferner, you will divide five thousand elites from my men and horses, and follow the main road in the south of the mountain to take the important place of Milio Sephalon; I ordered all the reserve troops of Bithynia and Gallipoli to join me and march towards Konya, the last place of Gilichi. When the time comes, once the city of Konia has been conquered, and you have occupied the land of Milio Sepharon, we will join forces again, backed by strong force, and take advantage of the situation to force Gawain to surrender Seleucia and Cilicia. The emperor stood under the imperial flag and said to his loyal and simple son-in-law.

"Yes, yes, Your Majesty." Brenus respectfully took out the vellum paper, rustled with his pen, and diligently recorded his father-in-law's plan for deployment.

In the twilight, the breathless herald cavalry came to Weng Son-in-law, "Your Majesty, it came from the Nicaea Palace, and Her Royal Highness the Purple Princess personally ordered it, please take a look." With that, the cavalryman handed the cylinder into the hands of several palace guards, and then took out the paper, and after inspecting it to be non-toxic, it was delivered to Alexios.

Did Gawain write the letter, or did Anna write it? None of them seemed to matter, or rather mixed with their common tone:

"His Majesty appointed his servants as Commanders of the Expeditions of Asia, and then he was promoted to the post of Grand Duke of Anatolia. In the previous oath, the servant had stated that in the third month of this year, Seleucia and Sicilicia would be returned to His Majesty's throne. He swore an oath and would never dare to violate it.

However, since March, the construction of the John the Baptist and St. Paul's Hospital has been completed. On the domestic continent, hundreds of millions of believers who heard about this incident were all overjoyed. The main mission of this major hospital is to provide relief to pilgrims...... (2,000 words are omitted here, the emperor is already impatient, so he skips the nonsense and directly sees the core content) The hospital has just been created, all kinds of waste are waiting to be rebuilt, it is difficult, and it is urgent to need the full help of heroes from all walks of life. Since then, in Lombardy, Calabria, Hungary, and Antioch, there have been nobles who have donated estates of various sizes to the great hospitals, and there are now hundreds and thirty places.

Who are the servants? Do you dare to take the lead in offering for the first good deed?

Therefore, all the land in Seleucia and Cilicia has been donated to the great hospital to help the great cause of pilgrimage and glorify the name of His Majesty. St. Gerald, hearing of His Majesty's benevolence, changed the name of the Great Hospital to 'John the Baptist and Holy Apostle Paul and the Thirteenth Holy Apostle Komnenos Great Church Hospital', and dedicated the icon of His Majesty day and night......"

"Ah~~~~~~h There was no need to finish reading it, Alexios was furious, and in front of all the guards and even his son-in-law, he tore up the letter, threw it on the dirt under his boots, and then stomped on it, roaring, "Between me and Anna, there is no more father-daughter affection, she is a monster born by the devil through Irene's womb, a banshee, a banshee!" Finally, Gawain still found a shameless excuse to blatantly refuse to return Seleucia and Cilicia to me. ”

Meles, who was next to him, quietly waited for the emperor to finish venting, and then began to kneel down and calmly pick up the fragments of the letter, "What else do you want these shameless rumors to do?" "The emperor hates.

"Your Majesty, you should see the follow-up things, which were also sent by Gao Wen." Meles said, handing the Emperor another sealed paperwork.

Heavy, inside is the official title seal symbolizing the status of the Grand Duke of Gawain, and there is also a letter in the quota, "Seleucia is not the land of the empire, and there is no need for the servants to keep this thing, and they dare not call themselves the Grand Duke again, that is, the seal will be attached to Your Majesty." Stephen. Gawain was terrified and said carefully. ”

The Emperor, who was holding the seal, adjusted his breathing, suppressed his hatred and anger, and then said to all the generals and guards, "Mobilize all the soldiers in the whole territory, I still need 20,000, no, 40,000 to recruit." After taking Ferner, I will recruit Angeliki for the time being, and then use all my strength to conquer Seleucia, destroy the hospital, skin Gawain alive, and castrate him......"

Since then, the "First War of Return to India" has broken out. (To be continued.) )
