"I hope it won't be discovered by the Romans!"

"Your Majesty's plan is very good, I don't think there will be any mistakes for a while!"

Two days later, the Hungarians quietly withdrew from the middle reaches of the Drava River, retreating back the way they came.

However, Bella has followed Emperor Manuel to fight for many years, and she is not incompetent.

Before leaving the garrison camp, the Hungarian king not only planted a banner, but also ordered the remaining troops to continue to attract the attention of the imperial army by feints.

The king had each of his elite cavalry soldiers tie two flags on horseback and plant them upside down behind the saddle.

In this way, during the raid of the cavalry team, looking from afar, the dust was flying, and the banner was hunting, and it was still majestic.

Relying on such a bluff and imitating the action of imminent attack, the Third Army of the Imperial Army on the other side seemed to be really frightened.

As Bella's observations, the Roman army slowly shrank.

The various squads scattered by the Imperial Army were clenched into a fist again, entrenched opposite the main army of the Kingdom.

After two or three attempts, the King of Hungary had finally left the Drava River with his army the previous night.

The Magyars were evacuated in a hurry without any prior notice.

It was not without nobles on the road who tried to find out the king's secrets, but Bella's tone was tight, and after several unsuccessful attempts, the Hungarian nobles chose to silence.

However, the real undercurrent has never subsided, and everyone is heavy and uneasy.

Even if it is a slight setback, it should not be withdrawn from the front line so quickly, it is unreasonable.

But no one would be foolish enough to ask about it, and there must be deeper secrets behind all these mysteries.

Those who explore too much will touch the taboo of death!

In the early morning of the second day after the withdrawal of the main Hungarian army of 20,000 troops from the battlefield, they were far from the front line of the battlefield.

The Magyars marched through the dense forest all night and were sleepy.

But as long as the king of Hungary does not give orders, no one can stop and rest.

Ahead is the road back to the north, but there are two forks here.

One is the smooth road you took when heading south, and the other is the rugged path that leads to Death Canyon.

Gazing at the fork in the road, King Bella, out of concern for the royal capital, decided to take another path closer to the valley.

The mountains and forests gradually became scarce here, and the roads gradually narrowed, and the cavalry could only ride in four parallel horses.

Counting the three mounts of each cavalry, tens of thousands of horses stepped into the valley with no end in sight.

During the march, the red sun reflected in the sky, and the Hungarian army actually felt warm and hot in the early spring.

This is the boredom and exhaustion of marching on horseback for a long time.

Even the bravest warriors were invincible to the direct rays of the sun, especially the thick cotton jackets, coupled with the armor covering, the hussars were already stranded.

"Stop the march!"

The king finally stopped the warriors from advancing, which was the limit of what the nobles could do.

Don't ask too much!

Looking around at the dangers of the valley, the King of Hungary covered the scorching sun with his hands, and he sat cross-legged on a large bluestone.

With a handful of water, Bella enjoys the privileges that belong to the king.

Laszlo, the head of the guard, brought a few scouts with him, and several large boxes were brought up.

"Your Majesty!"

"The sentinels found these things!"

"You'd better see for yourself!"

Bella was shocked, could it be that the Romans had discovered their evacuation and had set up an ambush in advance?

The king stood up and watched up and down the valley, but there were no ambushes, no enemy attacks.

Everything was so peaceful, as if the appearance of this tin box was an illusion.

No!

No, what exactly did the Romans want to do?

"I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out, the Roman army didn't attack."

"So what is the reason for the appearance of this tin box?"

As the king pondered, several large chests suddenly moved.

The Hungarian soldiers took two steps back, lest they be hurt by the Pandora's box set up by the Romans.

King Bella crouched down and gently stroked the iron box carefully crafted by the Imperial Craftsmen.

Several dense holes were exposed, and the sound of living creatures came out.

It's weird!

"Did the Romans deliberately leave something like a viper here to deter us?"

Laszlo, the head of the guard, frowned worriedly, he had an uneasiness about these iron boxes, which was by no means a good thing.

"What's written on this?"

Bella was attracted by the sudden discovery of words, just one line on it.

"This box is not to be taken, not to be tasted, not to be touched, if it is opened, hell will come!"

"The machinations of the Romans!"

The king laughed at the clumsy threat, and he had nothing to fear unless the Roman army appeared now.

"Open it!"

"Your Majesty!"

"Open it!"

"I'm going to see what the Romans are up to!"

"Since it's a living creature inside, at most it's a poisonous snake, it's impossible to hurt me!"

The Hungarian soldiers gathered around and pointed their spears at the iron boxes.

King Béla and his chief of guard, Laszlo, retreated into the distance and watched quietly.

No matter how sophisticated the Romans were, such a distance could no longer hurt their commanders.

"Bang!"

The iron box was pried open by the Magyars, and everyone did not squint, and their spears were pointed at the iron box, ready to stab the possible poisonous snakes to death.

But to everyone's surprise, the white dove of peace flew.

The sky was densely populated with birds chirping and chirping, and they soared happily in the blue sky.

"What did the Romans do?"

Béla no longer believed in the secrecy of his quiet withdrawal, but he did not understand the plan of the Roman army.

The scouts of the Hungarian hussars were, of course, the best riders among the Magyars.

The surrounding area had already been explored in advance, otherwise King Bella would not have easily entered this valley.

It was an excellent place for the Roman army to ambush, and he couldn't be careless.

"Your Majesty!"

"Do you want to keep going?"

"Laszlo!"

"Don't be intimidated by the Romans!"

"Since the Roman army didn't show up, what else could they do?"

"Let's pack our bags and move on, quickly out of this valley of death!"

Bella was trying to make herself look majestic, and now he was in a bit of a dilemma.

Back off?

If the Roman army had blocked the valley out, a fierce battle would have been inevitable.

There may be a glimmer of life ahead, after all, it is not far from the valley.

………………………

In the midst of the rubble above the valley, a figure stood up.

"Pseros!"

"My general?"

The officers of the Imperial Army looked at his superiors with some amusement, and whenever he laughed evilly, there were always some people who would be unlucky!

"Can you shoot that Bella guy with a bow and arrow?"

"Absolutely!"

"But sir, don't you want a living king?"

"Why not!"

"As long as you can do it!"

Theodosius had been waiting here for a long time, and the Imperial Army was also bewildering the Hungarian army.

While the Magyars on the other side tried to release the fog and distract the Imperial army, Theodosius also cooperated to shrink the area of his defenses.

Bella, your greatest original sin is your conceit!

You despise me, and you are giving me the lives of all Hungarian soldiers!

"Don't let down the good intentions of His Majesty, let us welcome the Magyars with the greatest offensive!"

"Welcome to Hell!"

The Imperial army was indeed in ambush in the valley, but it was hidden in the mountain pass.

The carrier pigeons set up in front of the road are the signal for the general attack of the Cumans on the return journey.

Now it's harvest time!
