sultan's crescent

Chapter 44
Selim felt more and more uneasy. At this time, more than a dozen figures appeared in the thick smoke. Sultan pressed the firecracker on his waist, ready to fire at any time.

A figure slowly emerged from the thick smoke. It seemed that the person who came was Justinian. Selim breathed a sigh of relief, but he still did not let his guard down completely.

"Hands up, Justinian, if you are.

Answer me, what is the purpose of the three colors in the French tricolor emblem? "

The spy raised his hands obediently and replied.

"If you support the restoration of the dynasty, please use blue on the left, long live the revolution, please use red on the right, and if war breaks out, please use white in the middle."

Hearing the heartfelt jokes about breastfeeding, Selim finally relaxed a little.

He leaned forward and asked, "What's the situation? Justinian. Are the Austrians and Russians here?"

"It should be, Your Majesty, but please rest assured that we have cleared the area of ​​enemy spies.

But considering that we don't know enough about the opponent's manpower, we suggest that you should return to the guard camp as soon as possible.

I will personally escort you with them.As for the other side's spies, my deputy will deal with them. "

Selim breathed out and said, "Just do as you said, Justinian, let's go back quickly."

A group of people quickly left the area covered by thick smoke, and Abdullah Pasha had already received the news from Justinian's people, and rushed here with the Sudan's guard, the Independence Regiment.

After entering the camp, Selim finally relaxed completely.

"Damn Fanal bastards, damn Russian bastards, damn Austrians, and a bunch of Greek fools."

Sultan cursed through gritted teeth.

"Wait for me, if you don't kill you, I won't be a sultan anymore, just change my career and become a monk."

In the wilderness, the spies of the two sides were still confronting each other, and Antimos felt flustered.

The spies he sent out to intercept and kill still haven't sent back any news.

"Damn it, why are there so many people on the other side? How could they escape this assassination?"

Antimos said to himself anxiously, at this time he had already lost the original madness, but could not stop being afraid.

In fact, in this confrontation, both sides miscalculated the strength of the other side.

For Selim's side, he never thought that the other party would be so mad that they let both the Russians and the Austrians in.

As for Antimos, he did not expect that the Sudan would have such an astonishingly large team of spies in the Thessaloniki area.

So much so that he completely misjudged the situation and failed to win Sudan in the end.

The thick smoke is about to disperse, and the situation is becoming more and more unfavorable for Antimosus. He must find ways to clear the suspicion of his family.

"Get rid of the Austrians and Russians. Only in this way can we prevent them from choosing to slander the family for fear of causing national disputes."

Antimos thought viciously, and he decided to quickly deal with this potential threat.

Under the arrangement of Antimos, a large number of Fanar spies were recalled and arranged around.

Austrian and Russian spies were recalled shortly after Antimos issued his order.

Accompanied by the final position, Antimos made a gesture, and the secret agents of the Fanar family hidden around immediately rushed up, and the two sides began a bloody fight.

Looking at the spies who died because of fighting with the Austrians and Russians, Antimos felt his heart bleed.

These spies were cultivated with great difficulty by the family with a lot of money, but now they are almost completely lost in this operation.

But compared to the secret agent's life and death, there are more terrifying things to worry about. He must erase the traces of his family's involvement as soon as possible.

It might not do much, but it was the only thing he could do.

Antimos remembered Simon's words, and he smiled bitterly.

"So, in the end, did I still lose?"

He gathered the last spies and began to make the final treatment on the bodies of these spies on the ground.

Not only disposing of the corpses, but also dead people like them who couldn't survive, must not let the other party find a trace, this is the last thing he can do.

When Justinian came to the area where Antimos was with spies.There is only a pile of burning corpses left in the entire wilderness.

But fortunately, the fire was not big, and Justinian quickly organized the fire fighting, hoping to find some useful information.

However, the faces of these bodies were so badly disfigured and nothing remained of their length that they were difficult to identify.

After completing the cleaning and processing of the scene, Justinian hurried back to the camp and began to report to Selim what he had observed.

"Your Majesty, I haven't collected much useful information, but I think your judgment is completely correct.

Since we haven't found any useful information, we might as well fabricate evidence.

Anyway, this matter must be the mastermind of Fanar.No one will wrong them. "

After listening to Justinian's report, Selim rubbed his eyebrows and added something.

"Let's count the Patriarchs of Greece, the Sultan had an accident in the place they chose, how can we do it without paying the price!

Forge evidence, this matter is doomed to an impossible end.

No matter who, no matter when, no matter where, no matter what method you use, Justinian, you must remember that anyone involved in this matter will be detained together. "

"Yes, Your Majesty." Justinian took the order and left.

Selim sneered as he looked at the back of the secret agent going away.

"In this matter, whoever participates, I will punish the Nine Clans, and even a dog will not be able to survive."

The guards guarding on the side felt the sultan's astonishing killing intent, and couldn't help but tremble.

While considering the follow-up disposal, Selim was also introspecting, perhaps his behavior was still too radical.

This assassination made Selim more vigilant, determined not to leave Topkapi Palace except for necessary factors in the future.

That night, Justinian had captured all the Fanars and Greek patriarchs living in the manor, and Simon was naturally among them.

The independent regiment led by Abdullah Pashas provided armed support to Justinian.

These Fanars and the patriarchs of the powerful Greek clans knelt in front of Selim.

Looking at these damned guys, Selim felt that his killing intent seemed to be gushing out.

All the Greek patriarchs were so frightened that they didn't dare to speak out, but Simon who was on the side didn't make such a gesture at this time, but collapsed on the ground as if he was already stupid.

It can be said that anyone can tell who is behind the scenes.

After a long silence, a Greek patriarch spoke.

"Your Majesty, we are..."

Before he finished speaking, Selim's scolding arrived.

"Shut up, old man, it doesn't matter whether you say it's innocent or not, it's up to me!"

　Some book friends may not understand why there was an assassination, but the Sultan actually has no fundamentals, because in the 200 years after the death of Suleiman the Great, the power of the Sultan was divided too much, forming a large number of vested interest groups.

　　Selim's reform is actually to take back power, eradicate the nine, and create a new one. The only people he can unite are those who are willing to believe in him or those who are weak in their own strength.

　　If you still don’t understand this logic, please leave a message to explain, I will open a single chapter to explain it

　　Finally, ask for follow-up and collection.
