Chapter 315 Gerris de Villeroy
Gerris has been waiting for a long time, but in fact he had expected Hovanis's arrival.
He was not unaware of what the Georgian army did these days.
However, because of his weak power and the behavior of the Georgian army was not out of line, he never showed up on his own initiative.
But sit firmly on the Diaoyutai and wait for the wishes to take the bait here.
Hovanis is the wisher.
However, the first meeting between the two was not very friendly.
Faced with the approaching of Howanis a hundred-man team, Gerris always stood at the high mountain pass, neither avoiding nor walking down to greet him.
Hovanis's team had to pass this only road, and although the distance was not steep, it was not friendly to horseback riding.
Even if Hovanis has a horse, it still seems difficult to move forward.
In this way, the side that was originally in the upper hand of a large crowd, had to climb hard and approach Gerris like a devout pilgrim.
When Hovanis could finally see Gerris' face clearly, the anger in his heart suddenly burst out.
After all, the man at the mountain pass was not panicked at all, and was still high above, waiting silently for them to climb up one by one.
This made Howanis feel lost in his face and the flames of anger burned.
After confirming that the two sides were not far away, Howanis waved and signaled that the people on his side should take a rest.
He shouted to Gerris who had been standing firmly at the mountain pass for a long time, "Hey! Who is that over there! Come down quickly! I have something to ask you!"
However, Gerris still did not move. He didn't even look at him, but just turned his head slightly, as if signaling Hovanis to walk up by himself.
That indifference and indifference made Howanis' anger even more intense.
It is clear that Hovanis wants to go up by himself.
Hovanis couldn't stand it now, so he turned his head and gave a few instructions. Several soldiers beside him pulled their bows one after another.
Hovanis felt that he could no longer bear such provocation, so he waved his hand to signal the soldiers to pull out their short bows and stand by the bowstring.
Now, the distance between the two sides is no more than thirty steps. At such a distance, it is easy to shoot a person.
However, facing the threat of bows and arrows, the man at the Yamaguchi just shook his head, still alive and didn't care about their actions.
This made Howanis extremely embarrassed. An inexplicable guy was inexplicably proud of himself here, without even armor. Who gave that guy the courage to show off his face in front of Howanis?
In this world, no matter how hard the Cavaliers can fight, they will still have no way to survive in the complete 100-man team!
So Howanis shouted again: "Dog, get out!"
However, facing Howanis' vicious threat, the man he could only see was turned up and he just turned his head away. , a gesture of Hovanis walking up.
Faced with such a provocation, Hovanis couldn't bear it and took a bow from his entourage beside him.
Zhang the bow and shot an arrow at Garys.
This is a messy battle, and it doesn't matter if you kill the other party.
As the captain of the Centenarians, Howanis is naturally not a good person.
The longbow in my hand is about a hundred pounds, and at these thirty steps, the arrow flew over it with a straight ray.
In this moment when ordinary people could not pay attention to avoid, the man at the mountain pass just tilted his head, and Hovanis's arrow fell into nothing.
Faced with this miss, Howanis waved again: "All staff are ready!"
Let the other archers beside him take arrows, and more than ten arrows were almost the same. It shot out at all times, and the black arrow feathers were buzzing with a buzzing sound of breaking through the air, like a beast.
However, something even more incredible happened.
The man in a white robe raised his arms slightly, and the mountain wind stopped in an instant.
At that moment, the trembling sound of the bowstring was still echoing in the valley. The thirteen arrows shot at him were like night birds returning to their nests, falling three feet in front of him with a surrender arc. The land.
In the scorching sun, cold sweat ejaculated in Howanis' palm, a chill suddenly surged in his heart, and a chilling feeling on his back could not help but feel cold.
"This is impossible..."
Those arrows, clearly for the sake of death, seemed to have lost their target in an instant, as if they were surrounded by the man in white robe, were filled with some kind of sacred power.
Hovanis's mood instantly changed from anger to confusion and horror.
His eyes became unconsciously slow, and the scene just now deeply shocked his heart.
"Come up, I have been waiting for you for a long time."
"When I returned from my retreat, the Lord agreed to me that He had made all things in the world swear to hurt. Not me."
The man in white robe said a little ethereal. Faced with this unexpected scene, Howanis subconsciously held the hilt of his sword at his waist, and continued to walk for about twenty steps with the 100-member team behind him. Until the opposite side of both sides.
After both sides, Howanis noticed that the other party's light blonde hair refracted dazzling light in the sun, obviously not a Turkic person.
In terms of appearance, perhaps it is more likely to be a Frank man?
Hovanis is not very sure.
But, no matter what ethnic group the other party is, the anger he has been through the journey has not been completely eliminated, and his eyes are mixed with dissatisfaction.
"Do you still want to test me?"
Hovanis has not responded to the other party's words yet, and the next moment, Hovanis's hair stood upright.
Because just the moment he wanted to pull out the long sword, a sharp blade appeared on his neck.
After holding the void in his right hand, he realized that he had grabbed the void. The one that was on his neck was actually his own sword!
"Since the arrows are no longer willing to hurt me, why do you think your sword is enough?"
"You, who are you?!"
Hovanis's tone was already trembling and it was difficult to finish it in a coherent manner.
He didn't care about how the other soldiers on the side viewed him, but these two previous scenes had directly defeated the bottom line in his heart.
The knees were unconsciously weakened and they fell in front of Garys.
Geris, while he took the opportunity to slapped his sword on his shoulder and gave the other party an answer.
"Me?"
"You worm, I am the saint of Jerusalem, the head of Cyprus, the Imam of thousands of tribes and nations on earth, the supervisor who sets the order of the world for my father..."
Geris spoke his name, but the other party was confused.
Due to the Muslim forces in the Anatolia region, news about Gerris has not been widely circulated in Georgia.
Many people just heard that the Kingdom of Jerusalem regained its homeland and after defeating Saladin, they moved towards prosperity.
However, no matter whether the name Gerris said was true or false, Hovanis could be sure that the sword on his shoulder was absolutely true.
So he naturally would not reject the other party's words.
"Now we can talk."
"You, you said!" "Let David Southlan come here to see me and tell him I, Gerrys de. Villeroy is here and wants to talk to him."
"Ah?"
...
Hovannis left the place quickly, and it was time to leave quite lost.
Just this short few minutes of experience brings memories that are imprinted in my mind and remember never forgetful for a lifetime.
When he turned his head and looked at Yamaguchi, the man in a white robe was still standing there, as if nothing had happened before.
When he thought of the other party’s claim, he was a little panicked and afraid, worried that the other party’s claim was true.
More than a dozen arrows surrendered and landed, and the sword flashed into the hands of others...
Hovanis had no doubt that as long as the other party wanted to take his life, no matter how many people stopped him, no matter how many people wanted to stop him. Can't stay with each other.
After taking a few breaths in succession, Hovanis decided to throw this issue to David Southland.

After all, David Southlan is the commander of their army, and he is just a small, indescribable guy.
And at the mountain pass over there, after seeing the 100-man team leaving without doing anything, Arslan stood up from the side lying on the ground.
While swallowing unconsciously, he came to Garys' side. It was really something that had just happened, which made him sweat for Garys.
After all, according to what Gerris said, the endings of prophets of all generations were actually not very good. Jesus was able to be hanged on the cross, and the Prophets were also beaten with fists in their early years.
It can be seen that when Allah gave people miracles, he obviously did not consider his personal combat power.
Of course, Garys' performance seemed to seem to have learned a lesson and deliberately adjusted his playing style.
"First, sir..."
Arslan spoke carefully.
"What's wrong?"
"I noticed one thing."
"What's the matter?"
"Since I met you, I have never seen you kill someone, sir. Even though we all drew our swords, we have never seen you kill someone."
Arslan never doubts whether Gerris has the courage to kill.
As far as Gerris showed was concerned, was there really a residual feeling of fear in his heart?
Geris glanced at him.
"I am a good shepherd, and a good shepherd is willing to sacrifice my life for the sheep."
"In the world, how can there be a shepherd who wants to kill the lamb just because the lamb is pushed twice?"
This sentence The words answered Arslan's confusion.
For Gerris today, killing is no longer a necessary means for him to solve the problem.
The various threatening gestures made by ordinary humans are at most just the momentary mischief of the little lamb.
When both sides are not on the same level, the indifference displayed by Gerris is essentially a kind of kindness.
"In this world, I lost many sheep. Now I will find them one by one in the wilderness until each one returns to the sheep pen."
"When I found it, I happily carried it on my shoulders, summoned my friends and neighbors, and said, "I have found the lost sheep, and you will be happy with me!" I tell you, a sinner repents, The heaven will also rejoice for him in this way."
…
As a powerful kingdom in northeastern Anatolia, Georgia III had only two daughters.
Faced with a dilemma similar to the inheritance of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, Georgia III's choice was more decisive than the kings of Jerusalem in history.
He directly appointed his daughter Tamara as the co-governor monarch.
In the Christian cultural circle, it is actually difficult to have a clear correspondence with the words "Prince or Prince".
Generally speaking, except for the order of heirs arranged according to the inheritance law, many countries have identified the heirs by appointing co-governance monarchs.
This behavior is actually the case when the four emperors of the Roman Empire governed each other.
Augustus was appointed two more, and Caesars were appointed.
Caesar was the deputy emperor. When Augustus abdicated, he was succeeded by Caesar and appointed a new Caesar as the co-governance monarch and became the heir.
Tamara is the first woman in Georgian history to rule the kingdom with her own rights. She was even given the title of [king] instead of [queen] as a woman, for this reason. Emphasize her status.
And her various civil and military achievements after her crown also enabled her to be honored as a woman.
But even so, women have many inconveniences after all, and they got married twice.
When he got married for the first time, he married a prince from the Grand Duchy who was born after the disintegration of Kievan Rus.
This prince of the Grand Duchy was used as a coup piece by the nobles in the Georgian kingdom and wanted to resist the rule of King Tamara.
The end was to be expelled by King Tamara, who after that, King Tamara married David Soslan, the prince of Alanya as his husband.
Unlike his ex-husband from a powerful aristocratic party, David is Tamara's personal choice.
He was proven to be an excellent military commander and won many battles on the battlefield.
Now, after winning the great victory in the Battle of Basiani, David led his army westward, striving to seize more land and establish a buffer zone for Georgia.
In David's view, the victory of this battle does not mean that the Kingdom of Georgia can rule Anatolia.
It is unlikely to curb the Turks' plundering customs. Therefore, it is more practical to reduce the number of plunderings in Georgia by establishing a buffer zone.
Just as he led his troops to surround the city of Erzurum, he received a rather surprising news. "Are you sure that the man called himself the holy man of Jerusalem, Gerris de Villeroy?"
In the central army's tent, Wang Fu, who commanded the army for King Tamara, met with an Armenian nobleman.
"Yes, yes..."
Hovanis's words were still trembling. Neither the previous saint nor the royal husband, it was obvious that he could not do it. The object to face.
After getting the confirmation news, David walked back and forth in the big tent, and various thoughts lingered in his mind.
Unlike a ignorant guy like Howanis, as the top of the Kingdom of Georgia, the information he learned was much more comprehensive than Howanis.
At least he knew that the husband of Isabella, the king of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, was also called Gerris de Villeroy.
