The Seljuks, who were in disintegration, were unwilling to be defeated by the general situation, although these soldiers were by no means a rabble, but their struggle only delayed the maximum deterioration of the battle situation and slowed down the defeat.

"It's time for the final victory!"

William Marshall, the former commander of the enemy, was in a happy mood, especially when he saw that the opponent's front was retreating and the Seljuk formation was compressed, and the English knight smiled.

"It's okay, press our people up, you don't have to leave behind!"

The Aquitaine swordsmen struck again, striking the final assault on the already shaky line of the Roma defenders, the Seljuks' already scattered formation finally disintegrating in a criing and wailing.

"Kill them, cut off their heads, and bathe this fortress in the blood of infidels!"

William Marshall, who no longer had to go into battle himself, just commanded his soldiers to pursue the fleeing enemy and defeat the defeated soldiers, and now it was time to reap the fruits of victory.

When Richard, the mighty commander of the Prince's Expeditionary Force of England, entered the Cilician Pass, the buildings of the city were almost in ruins.

Houses on fire abound in the fortress, and instead of fighting the fires, the English and French hastened to loot the property that once belonged to the Armenians.

Of course, it was taken from the Seljuks, and you can't kill the believers who belong to Christ, whether you believe it or not, anyway, I believe it.

"This pass is useless to us!"

Richard commented on what was once the southern gate of Anatolia, and now as long as it doesn't rain, the expeditionary force in the face of fire can't take it and establish a stable rear stronghold.

"We need to know something from the mouths of the captives, preferably about the movements of the main forces of the Seljuk army."

"Whatever method you use, let them speak, I want to know everything about Arslan!"

**The monarch's irrefutable and categorical tone made all the generals feel a chill in their hearts, but they were also secretly complaining.

The soldiers of the expeditionary force were able to kill all the Seljuks, and when William Marshall realized that something was wrong and wanted to rescue one or two, there were pyramids of people in front of him.

"What can I say about you?"

"You're all a bunch of fools, don't you know how many captives are left?"

Prince Richard, who learned the truth, would not let go of his lovely generals so easily, as the leaders of the robbery, they shared the greatest benefit, but when it came time to get down to business, they did nothing.

"I really regret how I brought you out!"

Hate iron does not make steel!

The Prince of England regretted that he had not specifically instructed William Marshall to deal with the matter beforehand, and now any reproach would be superfluous.

"So we didn't get any useful information?"

"Your Highness, the military order documents left by the Seljuks in the barracks!"

William Marshall handed over a paperwork, all written in Arabic and Greek, which was the remnants of the English knights who had managed to salvage from the fire.

The Sultanate of Rum, known as the Roman Empire of the East, sought to inherit the legacy of the ancient Roman Empire and even culturally moved closer to the Byzantine Empire, so it was normal for Greek to appear on military orders.

"It looks like we'll have to invite our honored allies to look through the papers for us."

"I heard that the Romans popularized education in the army, and as long as the officers above the centurion had a literacy requirement?"

Richard was not ignorant of the situation in the empire, and Emperor Alexios was actively guiding them to learn in the direction of culture while training military talents at the Imperial Academy.

It would be ridiculous to not be able to read even the military orders issued by the Empire.

"So the Seljuks have at least thirty thousand troops, and their rapid entry has completely exceeded our expectations?"

The commander of the Emperor's ** trebuchet team not only conscientiously completed the task of cooperating with friendly forces to fight infidels, but also took on the task of deciphering the enemy's military situation, and he was by no means forced, he swore so.

Throwing away the military intelligence report, which had no longer any value, the prince of England was in a gloomy mood.

The situation of the Armenians was even worse than he had imagined, and the Seljuks seemed to be in a no-man's land, driving through the southern mountains of Anatolia.

Now the remnants of the exiled regime retreated into the hill fort and narrowly escaped the attacks of the Seljuk cavalry.

"They shouldn't expect anything from them!"

Richard, the most important ally on the way east, had done a thorough investigation.

The Armenians were the most likely to help him in the eyes of the English prince.

The Duchy of Antioch was subject to the Roman Emperor, and as long as Alexios did not nod his head, the Latins there would never come to his aid to support him.

Now that even the fierce mountain people have been defeated by the Seljuks, so the only reinforcements he can count on are the Greeks?

Forehead......

No!

It should be the Romans!

When appropriate, you should still give your allies some respect, after all, this is also a very important reinforcement!

The soft words comforted the Roman soldiers who served him, and the prince of England not only promised to give the pass ** to the great imperial supreme Basilius, but also was willing to continue to be the forerunner to eliminate the enemies of the empire.

Such a clear statement also puzzled Alexios, who was on the naval warship.

However, from the return of the subsequent return of the support troops, the emperor still saw the clue.

There is no love without a cause, just as Alexios used his power in the East to tempt Richard to the east, and even led him to attack the Seljuks, these are the result of the combination of power and interest.

Now the prince of England also made a wise choice, and after finding that the so-called allies around him were useless, he decisively continued to move closer to the supreme of the Eastern Empire.

The letter of thanks even reads: To the great Roman Emperor, I am deeply touched by your meticulous care, and I will continue to serve the Empire......

"The same wording as Bosimund (I), the ghost will believe his words!"

Is it possible that the Normans also promised to hand over Jerusalem and Antioch to the Roman Emperor at the time of the First Crusade?

How did the Duchy of Antioch come about, if possible!

The laughing Emperor was pleased to have been able to break the Seljuk's front without spending a single soldier of his own.

Before Richard arrived in the Holy Land of Jerusalem, he was the sharpest sword of the Roman emperor, invincible in all directions.

The institutions of the Sword of Damocles in southern Anatolia were greatly damaged, after all, even the Armenian towns were burned by the Seljuks, and the imperial institutions attached to them were naturally not spared.

However, there were a few points that escaped alive, and after the encounter with the Imperial fleet at sea, the Armenians and their present plight were also known to the Emperor.

However, in order to avoid adverse effects, Alexios hid this from everyone.

The Emperor needed Richard's army to continue its advance with fearlessness, sweeping away the Seljuk cavalry that had plagued the Armenian land, inflicting the same losses on Arslan II as he had in the past.

"It would be great if we could take off the crown of the Sultan of Konya."

The Redbeard of the Future, who commanded the armies of the Holy Roman Empire, emulated the heroic steps of his forefathers in the hope of rediscovering the old ways of Anatolia, and their heroic battles caused Kaihoslu to lose his royal capital, Konya.

The Seljuk Sultan could only avoid the sharp edge under the iron hooves of the Germans.

"Unfortunately, Redbeard's tragic death allowed the Seljuks to return."

"Keep fighting hard, Richard, and I'll receive the results of your battle later!"

Laughing off the offended emperor of the prince of England in battle, these are the details, as long as Richard Ken continues to advance eastward, then he will become a pawn of the Imperial Supreme in the Holy Land.
