The Crescent of the Sultan

Chapter 44 Everything is possible



Selim felt more and more uneasy. At this time, more than a dozen figures appeared in the thick smoke. Sultan held down the firecracker on his waist, ready to fire at any time. (audience)

The figure slowly emerged from the thick smoke. It seemed that the person coming was Justinian. Selim breathed a sigh of relief, but he still did not completely relax his vigilance.

“Hands up, Justinian, if you are.

Answer me, what are the uses of the three colors in the French tricolor emblem? "

The spy leader raised his hands in obedience and replied.

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

Selim's anxious heart finally relaxed a little after hearing the heart-warming Rufa jokes.

He leaned forward and asked: "What's going on? Justinian. Are the Austrians and Russians here?"

"It should be, Your Majesty, but please don't worry, we have cleared this area of ​​enemy spies.

But considering that we don’t know the opponent’s manpower well enough, we suggest that you should return to the Guard’s camp as soon as possible.

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

Selim took a breath and said: "Just do as you say, Justinian, let's go back quickly."

The 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 Sudanese Guards-Independence Regiment.

After entering the camp, Selim finally relaxed completely.

"Damn Fanar bastards, damn Russian bastards, damn Austrians, and these Greek idiots."

The Sudan gritted his teeth and cursed.

"Just wait for me. If I don't kill you, I will stop being a Sultan and become a monk instead."

In the wilderness, the spies from both sides were still confronting each other, and Antimos felt a panic.

The spies he sent out to intercept and kill him still haven't sent back any news, so it's probably more serious than the worst.

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

Antimus anxiously muttered to himself. At this time, he had already lost his initial madness, but was instead uncontrollably afraid.

In fact, both sides misjudged each other's strength in this confrontation.

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

As for Antimos, he did not expect that the Sultan would have such an amazing team of spies in Thessaloniki.

So much so that he completely misjudged the situation and ultimately failed to capture Sudan.

The thick smoke is about to dissipate, and the situation is becoming increasingly unfavorable to Antimos. He must find ways to clear his family's suspicions.

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

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

Under the arrangement of Antimus, a large number of Fanar spies were recalled and placed around.

Not long after Antimus issued the order, the Austrian and Russian spies were quickly recalled.

As he finally took his place, Antimos made a gesture, and the spies of the Fanar family hidden around him suddenly swarmed up, and the two sides began a bloody fight.

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

These spies were trained with great effort by their families with huge sums of money, but now they were almost completely destroyed in this operation.

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

This might not have much effect, but it was the only thing he could do.

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

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

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

Not only dealing with corpses, but also dead people like them who could not survive, he must not let the other party find a trace. This was the last thing he could do.

When Justinian brought his spies to the area where Antimus was. There was only a pile of burning corpses left in the entire wilderness.

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

However, the faces of these corpses were so badly mutilated and nothing remained of their length that it was difficult to identify them.

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

“Your Majesty, I haven’t gathered much useful information, but I think your judgment is completely correct.

Since we didn't find any useful information, we might as well fabricate evidence.

Anyway, the Fanar people must be the masterminds of this matter. No one will be wronged if they are wronged. "

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

"Think of the Greek family heads. Something happened to the Sultan in the place they chose. How can we not pay the price?

Forge evidence, this matter is destined to never end well.

No matter who it is, no matter when, no matter where, no matter what method you use, Justinian, you must remember that anyone related to this matter will be detained. "

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

Looking at the retreating figure of the spy leader, Selim sneered.

"Whoever participates in this matter, I will kill the nine tribes of whomever is involved. Not even a dog can survive."

The guards on the side could not help but tremble when they felt the Sudan's shocking murderous intention.

While considering the follow-up measures, Selim was also reflecting on the fact that his behavior might still be too radical.

This assassination made Selim even more vigilant and determined never to leave Topkapi Palace except for necessary reasons.

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

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

These Fanar and the Greek patriarchs knelt in front of Selim.

Looking at these damn guys, Selim felt as if his murderous intent was about to burst out.

All the Greek patriarchs were so frightened that they did not dare to speak out. Only Simon on the side did not make such a gesture at this time. Instead, he collapsed on the ground as if he was stupid.

It can be said that everyone can tell who is the mastermind behind it.

After a long silence, one of the Greek patriarchs spoke.

"Your Majesty, we are..."

Before he could finish his words, Selim's scolding came.

"Shut up, old man, it's up to you to decide whether you're innocent or not, it's up to me!"

Some book friends may not understand why there was an assassination, but the Sudan actually has no basic base, because in the two hundred years after the death of Suleiman the Magnificent, the Sudan's power 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.

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

Finally, please read and collect it.
