Located on the Attica Peninsula, the atmosphere in the city of Athens was very relaxed at this time. After being attacked by the Pisa fleet at the harbor, the Latin nobles in the city directly chose to surrender. Pierre and his fleet fought almost without blood.

He captured this place, and when he entered the city, he immediately decided to make this his new location. For this reason, almost all Pisa employees in Argos moved here.

As a businessman, Baron Pierre knew what this meant, so he immediately jumped on Romanus, the son of Prince Agrinion, to betray Morley, who was his ally.

Asia's intelligence in exchange for Agrinion's recognition of Pisa's rule in Athens.

Everything was going according to the original plan. Seeing that the city was about to become his, Pierre had a look of contentment on his face, without the slightest psychological burden on his betrayal of the alliance. He knew it all too well.

Well, Justinian used almost coercion and inducement to exchange the precarious Thessaloniki for Argos. In fact, he wanted to use this to deprive Pisa of its trade privileges in Moria, and even coveted the Pisa in his hands.

Fleet. After the Latins in the Peloponnese were completely wiped out, Pierre realized that there was no ground for continued cooperation between the two sides.

Therefore, he did not hesitate to use the despicable method of inviting Justinian to come to Athens for a banquet to conspire with Romanus to attack halfway. If Justinian noticed something and refused to go, then he could justifiably end the cooperation between the two parties.

But what surprised Pierre was that Justinian actually came, and he only brought more than a hundred followers to protect him. If his scouts hadn't repeatedly confirmed that Moria had not mobilized any troops, he almost thought that

This little fox from Moria is playing some trick again, but now it seems that this cunning little beast has really fallen into a trap.

"You have thrown yourself into a trap, Justinian, please don't blame me. At this time, this place itself has no morality." Looking at the rising sun, the Pisa businessman said to himself with a touch of melancholy.

.

At this moment, Baron Pierre heard a commotion not far away, and he stood on the window sill of his bedroom and listened. He saw a fleet slowly moving towards the harbor outside the city of Athens.

Driving towards the harbor pier, he remembered that the fleet he had sent out before had just returned at this time.

"It took such a long time. It's true." Pierre frowned to himself. This fleet was originally preparing to ambush Justinian at sea, but he didn't expect that the other party would not respond.

They pulled off a trick and actually came to Athens by land. It seemed that the fleet that had returned without success had obviously been waiting at sea for a long time in vain.

"Dong dong"

There was a knock on the bedroom door.

"Come in." As Pierre finished speaking, two men outside the house pushed the door open and walked in together.

One was his naval commander, Padro from Pisa, and the other was the Russian pirate leader Yaroslav he hired. Due to his previous cooperation with Justinian, which he had suffered a lot of losses, Pierre recruited this group of pirates.

They also gave enough benefits, so the entire Pisa fleet was put in charge of these two people.

"What's the matter? If it's a matter about the fleet, it would be fine if the two of you handle it." Pierre said, looking at the two of them.

Padro shook his head and reported: "Master Pierre, this is another important matter."

"What is it?"

"It's the Agrinon army that went for a sneak attack and returned."

After learning the news, the pizza man sitting by the bed suddenly sat up, "That means they succeeded." That was the only thing that made him uneasy that night. And Romanus

The people sent there have now returned, so there is a high probability that they have succeeded there, and Justinian's serious problem can finally be solved. Thinking of this, Pierre felt even more relieved.

The next reply from Yaroslav on the side made the Pisa man's face change slightly, "Master Pierre, just now His Highness Romanus asked me to invite you over, saying that he would watch the results of this battle together."

"He asked you to come over and invite me?" Looking at Yaroslav, Baron Pierre's expression turned slightly cold, as if he was very unhappy.

But Yaroslav, a northern man from Russia, how could he detect the changes in the Italians' flirtatious moods? He said carelessly: "Perhaps His Highness's people have been sent out and there is a shortage of manpower, so you asked me to do it for you!"

"

"What do you mean by calling a Greek His Highness? I advise you people not to always try to climb high. If Lord Pierre can take you in, you should be satisfied." Padro, who has never been used to pirates.

Someone on the side immediately made some derogatory remarks.

Immediately, Yaroslav, who sensed something was wrong in his words, turned his face like pig liver, raised his neck and asked, "What do you mean by that?! Don't taint someone's innocence."

"That's enough!" Pierre, tired of the argument, said, interrupting the quarrel between the two.

"Yaroslav, you stay here and take your people to meet the fleet at the port. As for Padro, you mobilize the others to follow me to see the city gate Romanus."

"yes!"

"yes."

After making such an arrangement, the Pisa merchant asked Yaroslav to step aside and go to the port to dispatch the fleet.

Looking at the Ross man's leaving back, the coldness in Baron Pierre's eyes became even more intense. Padro, who was standing beside him, also saw the suspicion in his master's heart and said: "Sir, as you commanded. These few days

I've been secretly monitoring that guy since God, and he's been getting very close to Romanus and those people."

"Humph, it's not surprising at all. These northerners still like to be the Greeks' lackeys after hundreds of years. What's more, they are also a capricious pirate leader, but Romanus probably doesn't like his flattery." Pierre

Er said coldly.

"But I am afraid that the Greeks are capricious. The threat of Justinian has been removed. If they have any collusion..." Padro pointed out his worries, which is why he opposed pirates entering the army in the first place.

.

But Pierre was not worried and said: "Don't worry, Romanus still needs us somewhere, but just to be safe, you should take everyone with me to the north gate of the city this time, and don't give them anything."

Just take advantage of the opportunity. As for this group of pirates, I have been wary of it for a long time. I separated and managed them before to avoid unnecessary trouble. Now we can only gradually divide them and then deal with the thorny one of Yaroslav. These pirates will digest it.

It's easy to drop." The pizza businessman was already familiar with this kind of thing.

…

…

…

Walking out of the domed hall, the expression on Yaroslav's face, which had been aggrieved just now, seemed to be a completely different person, and he walked straight out of the door of Pierre's private villa calmly and steadily. At this time, in

Outside, a gentle young man has been waiting here for a long time.

"How are things going?" the young man asked knowingly.

Yaroslav waved his hand and lowered his slightly excited voice and replied: "Everything went well, exactly as we planned."

"It's a shame you were able to fool these Italians by acting like you were real."

"Hey, that's not all thanks to you. After hanging out with you for a long time, I feel like I've become cunning. Igor, what should we do next?" Yaroslav, who was originally a pirate leader

At this time, he actually obeyed the words of his clerk Igor, as if he was following his instructions. If others saw him, they would definitely find it strange.

However, the two of them knew at this time that the Pisa people were being dazzled by false victory at this time, and it was precisely in this way that their goal could be achieved.

Igor looked at Yaroslav and said: "Now it seems that Dmitry has succeeded. What we are responsible for now is the finishing work. It is our turn to end this gorgeous show."

"The rest..."

"The rest is naturally the responsibility of Mr. Justinian. All we need is to watch the show." Igor's eyes calmly swept into the distance, and at this moment the sun was slowly passing by.
