Anna stopped discussing the affairs of the Eustace family, but turned over and yawned, "I heard that the Danishmunds occupied the water and the high ground at the junction of Cappadocia and Paphragonia, and established a Divangash. ”

The so-called "Divangash", which is the Saracen language of the Crescent religion, is now borrowed by the Turks, originally referring to the military office established by the Crescent regime and allocated to the cavalry land, and later became the name of the Turkic fortress - Danishmund established a "Divangash", sent military colonies, distributed to the lower soldiers and immigrants, and provided for the elite cavalry who could fight, which was essentially no different from the Seleucian junta.

But since Danishmond was going to set up a fortress and a garrison in the northern part of Cappadocia, it was clear what Gawain meant to march towards the plateau.

The little sunfish rolled over, stretched out his hands and calculated, "It's really an enemy on all sides, Your Royal Highness the Princess, there are Danishmond and ambiguous Gilligi in the north, and Cyprus in the south that is also suspicious." In the west, when His Majesty the Emperor learns of your capture of Tarsus and Karon, there is a seventy percent chance that he will punish us militarily or even conquer us, while in the mountains of Marash in the northeast, there is also the Armenian Ruben who is eyeing us at any time. Really, there are terrible enemies on all sides. ”

"Divide and disintegrate, and each one breaks down." Anna used her fingers to wipe the black hair from her forehead, and did not seem worried, "The first priority is to recover the port of Saint-Simon as soon as possible, and send sufficient food and straw supplies to the pilgrims, and the situation will be opened." ”

It seems that Anna's attention to the Anatolian plateau is not at all as good as that of the Levant, which surprises the little sunfish, considering that Anna has always been a very standard Rium (the Saracen term for the Byzantines has both Greek and Roman aspects).

The next day, on the Gulf of Issus, the regrouped fleets of Venice, Amalfi, and Relaya, hoisted the flags of their respective states, and replenished them with a large number of fresh sailors (these Greek sailors, who were cheap and effective in these areas), in Cyprus, Seleucia, and Cilicia, and formed several powerful columns, and sailed again to the port of Saint-Simon.

In the headlands and mountains next to the harbor, there are still remnants of more than 1,000 Mosul soldiers who have no way to get in and out, and it is ridiculous that where did they get their ships to confront this group of Italians? There were just a few small barges that could sail in the inland rivers, which were quickly captured or sunk by the Amalfis, and the Mosul soldiers had to defend the outposts on the cliffs of the headland, to die for Allah.

Then about 3,000 Gemagis soldiers, carrying dry rations, and two infantry regiments of Duke Godfrey besieged the outpost fort on the cliff.

In the afternoon, all the Mosul soldiers came down to surrender.

In this way, from the Syrian Gate to the city of Ata, the entire territory on the west side of Antioch has been successfully recovered.

Countless soldiers, military servants, and ordinary Syrians, cheered and jumped, took off their armor, and ran onto the beachhead of the harbor, where they embraced the Italian sailors who disembarked from the ship, and even the Greek girls who were stationed with the Gimagius Brigade threw away their Orthodox shyness, and pounced on them, kissing the sailors, the shipwrights, and even the coolies who carried the grain in ecstasy.

The whole port of Saint-Simon was boiling, and baskets and baskets of food were brought up, most of them from Seleucia, Adana, and some from the land of the Franks, and Gawain and Godfrey, who were standing on the cliffs of the headland, saw several soldiers carrying baskets before their eyes, filled with wheat flour and even vegetables from Cilicia.

Gao Wenchang exhaled, then took out the dough, sandwiched the green vegetables, and chewed it in a big gulp, ( ̄~ ̄) Chew!

Godfrey sat directly on the rocks, greeted by the sea breeze, and feasted, "Antioch City"

"All the lords should be called to our tents and wait for the results of our decision, so that it is like the words, and not that we should go to the church in the city." Gawain flicked a leaf open with his finger and said hesitantly.

"At this juncture, reason and humility are necessary, Grand Duke of Romania." Godfrey spoke earnestly.

Gawain laughed, shrugged his shoulders to show that it was acceptable, and then walked down the ramp of the cliff, and said to Merlot beside him, "Supervise the camp and the army for me for two or three days"

St. Peter's Church, under the brilliant frescoes, the lords, monks and consuls gathered to cheer and congratulate the great victory at the Orontes River.

The five core lords, Gawain, Godfrey, Robert, Bohemond, and Raymond, all stood in the center of the whole crowd with swords, standing under the hands of Jesus on the mural, as if they were already the chosen representatives of God, and it was also said that they were undoubtedly the greatest heroes in the previous battle, especially Bohemond and Raymond, who were even more proud of their chin and toes.

Ademar, on the other hand, became a foil of sorts, standing beside the five, offering congratulations and praises.

"The next step is to bring the grain to the city, and after everyone has eaten their fill, go out and completely defeat the main force of Kobuha." Baldwin shouted in the crowd and proposed, which immediately drew heartfelt applause.

After hearing this, the other four turned their eyes to Gawain, and then Gawain walked out, "Everyone be calm, although the grain of the Italian fleet has arrived at the port, the total amount is still very impressive. ”

Now, many other lords are gone, they are hungry until now, after getting the news of the recovery of the port of San Simon, everyone is very excited, they just want to eat their stomachs, and then go to the battlefield to win back the honor they missed before, but Gawain actually said so!

"Damn, is it just the five of you who still want to defeat Kobuha?" Many lords shouted angrily, extremely dissatisfied, and suddenly the main hall of the church was noisy again.

"It was the five of us who recovered the Hermit Port of St. Simon and the city of Atta, who thinks we can't defeat Kobuha! Stand out! Bohemond gritted his teeth, terrified, and danced his fist vigorously, "According to any law or admonition in the world, you are not worthy of the ration of St. Simeon's food, it is all five of us. ”

"Shameful Chamber Agreements, Dirty Men Deals!" The atmosphere in the main hall was even more furious, accusations and insults soared into the sky, and even Godfrey's brother Baldwin was torn and pushed by many people, and in anger he repeatedly demanded that guards be sent in to maintain order.

In the current situation, everyone smashed the "glass" on the window: it was obvious that the other pilgrim lords wanted a piece of the pie, but the five people who participated in the Chamber meeting not only wanted the right to ration food, but also did not let anyone else get their hands on Antioch's "soup".
