On May 20, 1571, the the Holy League took the Great Decision.
It would send a battle fleet to reinforce the besieged of Famagusta, to stop also the domination of space through the sea.
This way the inneresea would take on a different value.
Only that this decision would take long for the shield.
Thus the shield had to hold on from dying to help the decision and this to turn into a naval battle to reach the goal.
Even a tactical defeat could belong to a winning strategy.
Especially if no one expected it.
The Great Decision would first lead to Thermopylae and only then to Salamis.
Because the Resurrection was meaningful only after the Crucifixion.
And without it, it would not exist.
Only now the Famagustians knew about Christ and the Resurrection.
This is how the Teaching worked.
So that the disciples new before the end.
And to continue the work.
Beyond the limits because of conscience, because the Master wanted it.
The Righteous Judge had decided.
Now all the pieces were ready.
And the pawns would follow, to open the front without fearing the supremacy of the opponents after they had prepared mentally.
Strategic Schemes.
Up in the sky and the sea.
Because on earth things were locked.
End of July the barbarians organized the toughest bombing attack since the beginning of the siege.
The North Tower began to collapse.
The walls did not allow any more resistance.
All seven hundred soldiers could not protect their positions.
On July 31, 1571, they no longer have ammunition.
They were left only with the spirit of sacrifice.
