Chapter 1309: No Trace of Time
Yang Zaixing's army finally came to the banks of the Suzdal River, and looking at this familiar place, he also felt a lot of emotion. Once so powerful as the Holy Roman Empire, Lothair II launched a crusade to the east, and now the powerful Germans bowed their heads, and Lothair hid in a tent on the other side of the Suzdal River. There were Germanic remnants everywhere, and there was no will to fight in their empty eyes. A large number of Saxon civilians have already crushed this group of Germanic soldiers, since everything is fine in the Kingdom of Saxony and the family has not been harmed in the slightest, then why continue to fight? For the glory of House Lothair, or for the ambitions of the Germanic Empire? The poor Germanic soldiers did not know what to choose, so they had to stay near the Suzdal River, and Lothair was already in a trance, like a cripple. With the arrival of Yang Zaixing, Hai Dongzhu finally put his mind at ease, the Vladimir garrison forced from the east, and in just two days, they swept away the Germanic remnants on the road, there was a precedent of Lorraine and blacksmith soldiers, and the Germanic remnants almost surrendered when they heard the wind, and they couldn't resist at all.
Shiqiao Ferry, in just half an hour, Gao Chong's headquarters forcibly broke through from the west, facing the powerful ancient town cavalry, even the die-hard warriors of Lothair, they could only resist for a moment. Snowflakes fell on the world, everywhere was cold, and people's hearts were completely frozen. Gao Zhong looked into the distance, without the slightest expression of excitement, "quickly crossed the stone bridge, seized the high ground opposite, and trapped the Germans on the shore." ”
After the two commanders gave the order, they directly led the people to rush to the high slope on the opposite side, and the Germans at this time had already lost their fighting spirit, especially the surrender of the lord soldiers led by the Frederick family, which brought heavy disasters to people. In just a quarter of an hour, the army of three thousand broke through the high slopes, which also meant that the last line of defense of the Germans on the Suzdal River was also broken. Gao Chong and Yang Zaixing finally met Hai Dongzhu in the Suzdal River, and Gao Chong and Yang Zaixing were also very happy to see that Hai Dongzhu was safe and sound. After many years of military career, Hai Dongzhu is no longer the original little girl, standing in the wind and snow, her beautiful eyes are shining, revealing a sense of ability, "The two of you came in time, the overall situation has been decided, are you interested in accompanying me to see Lothair?" ”
"Hai noble, please" Gao Pet laughed, Lothair was already meat on a cutting board, it depends on how to cut it. Hai Dongzhu walked in front, followed by Gao Chong, Yang Zaixing and more than a dozen commanders, the military appearance was even more prosperous, the Germanic soldiers along the way had already been wiped out, most of them chose to surrender, and the remaining diehards did not escape the fate of being killed. Bysil and Sugers would never exchange their own people for Lothair, and how much is it worth to lose Lothair in the Kingdom of Saxony? The red brazier was still burning in the tent, and an old man with a disheveled hair and a gray and desolate man sat in the tent, and when he heard the sound of heavy footsteps, he only raised his head faintly, and then drooped down again, and he couldn't see a little desire or anger in his eyes. Hai Dongzhu sighed a little indifferently, Lothair is really finished, from physical to psychological, all collapsed, this kind of person has no use value. Once upon a time, Lothair was also a figure on the side of Megatron, and even the Frederick family was suppressed by him, and now? Like a walking corpse that has lost its soul, Gao Zhong took off his hat and scratched the messy hair on his forehead, "Hai Guiren, what to do with this guy?" ”
Hai Dongzhu shrugged his shoulders and said with a helpless wry smile, "Give him a good time, show the head of the owl, Qi Lin's troops and cavalry will all go to the Rogda hills, this battle should be over." ”
The battle for the Istrian Heights, which lasted three months, from the highlands to Rogda to Yerinburg, was almost a pot of porridge, and the Swedes, the mountain people, the Danes, and the Germans were all mixed in. If Kipros is tossed too badly, it will be harmful to the future Baltic strategic plan, Gao Zhong nodded, made a look, and two commanders stepped forward to drag Lothair out, from beginning to end, Lothair was like a living dead man, and did not say anything. Perhaps, at this time, Lothair just wanted to die, and death was a relief for him. At the very least, Lothair still believes in his own God, and he can still leave a trace of reverie in heaven. Lothair's death seems so dull, two years ago, it is estimated that no one would have thought that Lothair's life and death would become a dispensable thing, I have to say that this is a great sadness. People die like dust, and characters like Lothair have no heads at all, and they are not so bluffing. The Imperial soldiers hastily cut off Lothair's head, not thinking of using Lothair for anything, as if killing an ordinary captive. The surprise in the hearts of Suggs and Bysel and others can be imagined, in their minds, no matter what the Orientals do, they should make some articles with Lothair, but the Orientals don't bother to do this at all, think about it, a Lothair, people may not put it in their eyes, this is the gap in the realm. The wind and snow outside have not stopped, Suggs, as a representative of the great nobles of the East, is still treated very well, at least there is a separate military tent, and there are two braziers, Bysel frowned calmly, bored and pulled the charcoal fire, Jorkoren is like a lost soul, listless, and complaining, "Orientals are not too hasty in doing things, people like Lothair, I don't know how to make good use of it." ”
"Sloppy what? Hey, people probably haven't regarded Lothair as a big man, otherwise they wouldn't be stupid directly, I think the Oriental people are staring at the Baltic Sea, and in two or three months, the weather is getting warmer and warmer, and that is a good opportunity to win the Baltic Sea" In terms of vision and vision, the Oriental people are too long-term, no wonder the Oriental people stopped after defeating the Kingdom of Saxony, and reached a tacit understanding with the imperial nobles. They all thought that people were afraid, but in fact, the eyes of the Orientals were not on the Holy Empire, what they really wanted was the Baltic Sea, "The Orientals are very smart, taking the Baltic Sea is equivalent to choking the throat of the Danes, and they can open the North Sea Road to the west at any time." In contrast, the cost of arguing with our Germanic Empire is much greater. If we could have had the insight of the Orientals, the Eastern Crusade would not have been so badly defeated. ”
Conquest does not necessarily have to be a strong attack, sometimes Huairou is more effective. Take the Lorraine people as an example, the Orientals can control the Lorraine Kingdom without spending a single soldier, maybe the Lorraine people have not completely fallen to the Orientals now, but it is only a matter of time before the interests are coupled with the strong pressure of the Orientals. The royal family of Lorraine may be unwilling, but so what, the arms can't twist the thighs after all, the Germanic nobles don't help, the Franks are not very good, and the royal family alone can't affect the overall situation. Bysel nodded with some annoyance, although Suggs said that he was a little suspicious of destroying his prestige, but it was also an objective fact, the war in the Istrian Heights was over, and the Orientals wiped out the Kingdom of Saxony without much effort, which was equivalent to cutting off the troubles, and then just focus on dealing with the Danes, as for the Lorraine royal family, they can only sympathize. Even if the Franks are willing to help, they won't give much, and Louis's dead fat man is not stupid at all, he won't offend the Orientals to death for the sake of the Kingdom of Lorraine, which will not benefit the Franks at all. Although the two sides have big differences on the Scottish issue, at least they have not torn their faces.
In the Rogda hills, Cao Yuan and Yelena are not in very good condition, in order to repel the enemy's attack, Cao Yuan, the commander of Rogda, was also forced to personally lead his troops to kill for a while, not to mention Yelena. The 5,000 cavalry that galloped to the aid of Vladimir was initially successful, but over time this reinforcement became constrained by the Danes' sheer strength. Fayuna is a real old fox, after suffering a loss, he directly gathered the cavalry, and waited for the Vladimir cavalry to pounce on himself, Cao Yuan suffered several losses, and then did not dare to send this cavalry out. Drinking hot water, his mouth was full of mud and sand, spitting, Cao Yuan scolded angrily, "This Fayunna, it is really difficult, the pressure on the north is getting stronger and stronger, and if the defense line shrinks again, we will be forced to the last bit of defense area." ”
"Fight back again tonight, no matter what, we must take back the northern defense area, otherwise, if we continue to fight like this, people will be suffocated to death before they are dead" Ye Lina said, glaring at Cao Yuan with unkind eyes, if it weren't for Cao Yuan's deployment mistake today, the northern border defense area would not have been lost, if it wasn't for the urgency of the war, Ye Lina would have cut Cao Yuan's heart, "You'd better not make mistakes again, you make something else, I estimate that all the people in my hands will have to be explained." ”
Yelena felt very sorry for the soldiers under her command, although they were known as miscellaneous soldiers and had low combat effectiveness, they were not sent to death. Cao Yuan naturally knew that Yelena was angry, and nodded with a wry smile, night fell, the cold wind was howling, the soldiers were shivering from the cold, and the Danes were even more unbearable, they had just arrived, and they were not adapted to the climate of the Rogda hills at all, and at night, they all huddled in the fortifications to keep warm. Cao Yuan personally led three commanders and took the lead in launching a counterattack against the northern border defense area, at this time it was no one else in charge of the northern border defense area, it was Quasimotu, hearing the sound of fighting from the front line, he was so angry that he opened his mouth and scolded, "This group of orientals, their brains are in water, and they are still fighting in the cold, and they don't let people rest?" ”
said it, but Cosimotu's actions were not ambiguous at all, and immediately dispatched people to reinforce the front line, since the other party did not give face, then leave them all, otherwise, I really thought that the Danish warriors were easy to bully. The night was as dark as ink, and the scattered torches could not drive away the cold on their bodies at all, and the soldiers on both sides rested for less than two hours and fought together again. Cao Yuan cut down a Danish soldier and shouted, "If you can't take the northern defense area, no one will want to go back today, kill!" ”
With Cao Yuan in front, who of the soldiers dares to retreat? The counterattack was more violent than ever, which the Danes did not expect, and they thought it was another small attack, as the Orientals had often done before. The fighting continued, and the Danes were defeated due to their lack of response. Soon he was shocked by Quasimotu, but fortunately, Quasimotu was still rational enough and did not press it without scruples, "The Oriental offensive is so fierce, it is not cost-effective to fight hard, and the black light is blind, which is very unfavorable to us." Withdraw first, and when the day comes, we'll teach this group of guys who don't know the height of the sky and the thickness of the earth a lesson. ”
In the night battle, it is always the Danish warriors who suffer, because they can't see the situation clearly and are not familiar with the terrain, even if they have the advantage of troops, they can't use it. Quasimotu resolutely withdrew, disgusting Cao Yuan, and when he wanted to kill him, he didn't give you a chance, so he sighed in vain? I don't know what it will be like after dawn, and it won't be so smooth when the time comes. His family knows about his own family, and it seems that the counterattack is in full swing, but that is all superficial effort. After several days of fierce fighting, the Rogda garrison suffered heavy losses, especially the elite soldiers under his command, which had been lost to seven or eight. Although the Danes suffered equally heavy losses, they were strong enough to withstand attrition. In the daytime, the situation in the defense area was clear, and it was difficult for the Danes to give full play to their superiority in troops, without a headache. Sometimes strength represents everything, and in the face of absolute hard power, even if you have a hundred tricks, what use can you have?
The dawn came too quickly, perhaps it was a psychological effect, the morning sun pierced through the fog, and the soldiers of the Dingguo Army habitually climbed to the high slope to meet the new day of battle. After a long time of fighting, the soldiers have long become numb, eating, sleeping and fighting, just like a fixed pattern, Yu Wenteng is an ordinary infantryman, not even a veteran, but this young soldier who has not been in the company for more than two years has experienced the battle of Rogda, the battle of the Yenisei River and the bloody battle of Istria, and the continuous fighting has made him grow up quickly. Under the heavy casualties, he, a young man, unexpectedly became a leader. The fog was still a little thick, and suddenly there was a strange movement in his ears, Yu Wenteng instinctively lowered his head and rolled down the high slope, and when he got up again, he saw an arrow inserted in the place where he used to lie down, Yu Wenteng's face changed greatly, and he picked up the broken gong next to him and beat it hard, "Brothers, the Danish is here again, the Danish is here....."
Sure enough, with Yu Wenteng's shouting, a large number of Danes came out of the fog, they held wooden shields, screaming, almost all of these people wore horned helmets, full of brown and red beards, and were extremely burly. This group of terrifying warriors was the most powerful janissary of the royal family, known as the Olin Infantry Regiment, who had been famous for a long time, and as early as the Viking Age, they roamed the North Sea and became the main force in the invasion of England. Fayunna was also arrogant, and sent the Olin Infantry Regiment in one go. This group of Olin warriors, with a high nose bridge and thick lips, all look like wild beasts, and you can feel the explosive power coming from them from a distance.
It was the first time for the steppe to see this group of barbarian soldiers wearing horn helmets, and he grinned and scolded, "How do these people grow, one by one like livestock, let the brothers be careful and greet them with rolling logs." ”
"General Cao, there is no rolling wood, there is so much left, it was all burned to keep warm last night" The deputy general's words made Cao Yuan feel a chill, "You group of losers, don't you know how to save some use, what about the oil?" And is there any kerosene? ”
The deputy general rolled his eyes, and he slandered in his heart, it was you who called for fire to keep warm, and now it is you who shout for saving, but the deputy general doesn't have the courage to worry about Cao Yuan, this General Cao is so savage that even His Royal Highness dares to pit, who dares to do it with him, "The oil is gone!" ”
"You.... You guys.... Damn, then what are you waiting for, this group of cattle is not easy to deal with at first glance, let the brothers retreat and concentrate" Cao Yuan has no other way, he can only hold on and wait for reinforcements, he can't just recapture the northern defense area, and then return it to the Danes. On the other side, the soldiers of the Dingguo Army had already engaged the Olin Infantry Regiment in hand-to-hand combat, and as soon as they fought, they saw the power of the Olin Infantry Regiment. These people not only wore horned helmets, but also were as strong as a cow, in comparison, whether it was a Slav or an Eastern soldier, they were not at all a grade in physique, and a soldier waved a knife to look, and the horned soldier on the opposite side smashed it with a mace, and smashed the soldier almost bloody. In the face of such a group of monsters with burly bodies and as powerful as oxen, many soldiers were killed in seconds with one move. A Slavic warrior was beaten out of flames, picked up half of the handle of the gun and slammed into a horned warrior, neither of them had any fancy movements, and they were hard to face, and for a time they were inextricably fought.
Yu Wenteng had just been kicked, his shoulder was also cut by an axe, the blood flowed profusely, crawling from the ground, his scarlet eyes stared at the axe soldier who was showing off his might, and another Slavic soldier was hacked to death, Yu Wenteng didn't know where the strength came from, he stood up suddenly, rushed over in three or two steps, hugged the neck of the axe soldier and bit down. Seeing this, a Slavic soldier next to him also got up from the ground and slashed at the axeman's thigh with a steel knife. I don't know how long it took, the burly axe soldier finally fell to the ground, and Yu Wenteng and the Slavic soldier were also in a half-dead state, the two of them were constantly panting, and they didn't even have the strength to get up.
Cao Yuan kept swallowing his saliva, after so many years of fighting, he still saw such a perverted humanoid monster, and many soldiers were like children in front of this group of brute bulls. If there's any good news, it's that there aren't many of them. Come to think of it, such soldiers are the same as Tiefutu, they are all strictly selected, and then built with a lot of money, look at these people, all of them are fat and strong, obviously they eat well on weekdays, and they eat a lot. The question is what to do, if the fight continues, the soldiers and horses under his command must be killed by the brutes. Just when Cao Yuan couldn't make up his mind, a group of people suddenly killed on the left flank of the Olin Infantry Regiment, and a black-armored female general was the most eye-catching, who could it be if it wasn't Yelena. With Yelena's new force, even the Olin Infantry Regiment has to temporarily retreat, Cao Yuan's heart is full of emotions, he doesn't understand why Yelena ran over?
"Elena, you divide your troops to the northern defense area, what about the south?" Cao Yuan's face was full of worry, Yelena frowned, and said expressionlessly, "If I don't come, can you handle it with your manpower?" It's fine to the south for the time being, and the Danes are clearly coming at you. ”
"Hmm" Cao Yuan looked up at the sky, and he didn't know what would happen in the end, could it be that he Cao someone was really going to be buried in the Rogda hills? On the other side, Fayunna was not discouraged, he opened his bow and did not turn back, since he decided to fight, he had to fight without hesitation, "The Olin infantry regiment pounced again, and the soldiers and horses on the right flank also rushed forward, the easterners suffered heavy losses, since most of the troops were concentrated in the northern border defense area, the troops in other directions must be weak." ”
With Favanna's order, the Olin Infantry Regiment embarked on the journey again, and a deafening roar reached the ears, and the faces of the soldiers of the Dingguo Army were very ugly. In a confrontation just now, everyone has seen the power of this group of brute bulls, and how huge the psychological pressure is to fight with such an opponent, Cao Yuan's face is also very ugly, and he secretly said bitterly in his heart, this time it is really going to be over. Just as Cao Yuan thought, where there was an Olin infantry regiment, it was a merciless killing, and the entire left flank was quickly torn open, and a large number of Danes poured in along the gap. Although the pressure on the southern defense area where Yelena was stationed was not so great, it was not easy, and Quasimotu personally led the Danish soldiers to constantly press Yelena's defensive line. At this time, Yelena can support it hard, which is already good, how to support Cao Yuan. The offensive and defensive battle of the Rogda hills, after nine days of repeated battles, finally ushered in the most critical moment.
The Olin Infantry Regiment was terrible, and the destructive power they showed was even better than that of the Heavy Infantry. Cao Yuan struggled to kill a Dane, and remembered a miserable howl in his ears, turned his head to look, and suddenly his eyes were about to split, and the shoulder of a pro-soldier was cut off, and blood gushed out. The tall bull soldier on the opposite side kept licking the corners of his mouth, like a demon, there was no hope of survival, Cao Yuan immediately moved his desperate thoughts, "Dog, Lao Tzu killed you." ”
Don't look at Cao Yuan's stature, but his arm strength is amazing, it is not a problem to play with a hundred catties of phoenix mouth knife on weekdays, the steel knife slashed over, and the brute bull soldier held the axe to resist, under the collision, both of them felt numb in the tiger's mouth, and gasped. The bull soldier finally cheered up, and in an instant, the two were fighting together. At this time, the high slope became a pot of porridge, there were traces of killing everywhere, there were no reinforcements, and the soldiers of the Dingguo Army were also released, anyway, it was up to God whether they were dead or alive. The Olin Infantry Regiment was too violent, but as the battle continued, they slowly became more solemn, because their opponents were not so vulnerable. Fayuna was in the rear, looking very calm, but in his heart, after all, he was a little anxious, no one knew what the situation was in Vladimir, and it would change later, in short, it would not be beneficial for the Danish children to drag it down. According to expectations, it was long overdue to break through the Rogda hills, but the resistance of the Orientals was too stubborn, beyond everyone's imagination. In the far south, there was a sudden sound of a low trumpet, and under the wind and snow, the sky was gloomy, as if connected with the earth, and in the place where it was connected, a gray figure appeared.
Fayunna's expression was awe-inspiring, and he had a bad premonition in his heart, so he quickly picked up the clairvoyant and looked into the distance, at this time, many Danish nobles also looked at it with the clairvoyance, and after seeing the gray figure clearly, their faces were as earth-colored, as if they had lost hundreds of taels of gold. It turned out to be the Eastern cavalry, or a large number of cavalry, it seems that it is coming from the direction of Vladimir, hell, could it be that the battle situation of Vladimir has already been decided, and Lothair has been defeated again? Fayuna couldn't figure it out, how could he be defeated, he just needed to drag the Vladimir garrison, and he didn't let you really fight hard. A Danish commander was already trembling, and said tremblingly, "Your Royal Highness, we must retreat quickly, otherwise the situation will not be good, if the Vladimir garrison can come here, it will definitely not be the only one with this little soldier." ”
Anyone can think clearly about this, if the Vladimir direction is divided into winners and losers, the Orientals can go all out to the Rogda hills, and retreating at this time is the best choice, but Fayuna did not speak for a long time, and the expression on his face became hideous and terrifying, "Do you think the Orientals are fools, we can withdraw if we want to?" At this time, the two sides have been killed, and any hasty retreat of either side may turn into a rout. On my orders, the Olin Infantry Regiment fought and retreated, and the Quasimotu Division, which had attacked the southern defense zone, slowly retreated northward. ”
The Danish nobles all looked at Fayunna with shocked eyes, none of these people were stupid, and under this arrangement, Quasimotu's troops were obviously victims. Fayuna was reluctant to explain, he knew that it would be unfair to Quasimotu's troops, but he had to choose between the two and the Bolnarin Infantry Regiment. The Olin Infantry Regiment is powerful, but the kingdom has been established with a lot of money and thousands of choices, and every loss is distressing. As soon as Yelena received the news of the arrival of reinforcements, she immediately ordered her soldiers to assemble and launch a counterattack with all their might, so that Quasimotu could not retreat even if he wanted to, so he could only retreat while fighting. A cavalry flew from the south, and the first one was Yu Xiaochen, a rookie general under Xiao Zhiyun, Quasimotu was so frightened that he fled to the valley road regardless of his image, "Quickly turn over the hillside, the cavalry will not be able to rush in after the hillside, hurry...."
Quasimoto yelled, which had a significant effect, and a group of Danish soldiers rushed into the valley road, so that Yelena led the people to chase after him, and slashed and slashed with great effect. The loss is not small, but Quasimotu has no other way, it is better than being caught up by the opposing cavalry, once it is bitten by the opposing cavalry, it is not a question of how much it loses, but it will be annihilated. Yelena led the troops to pursue for a while, then found a place to rest, before the continuous fighting, she was already tired enough, and she was able to pursue a distance, and she also relied on one breath to support. Yu Xiaochen turned over and dismounted, and crossed two valley slopes before finding Yelena. Seeing Yu Xiaochen, Yelena raised her head weakly, "How is Vladimir?" ”
"The Germanic army has been dispersed, Lothair has been killed, you can rest assured, General Gao and General Yang have joined the Hai Guiren, and the army is gathered, it is estimated that the main army will be able to reach the Rogda Hills tomorrow" Yu Xiaochen walked all the way and saw with his own eyes the tragic situation of the battle, fortunately, there was nothing major happening to Yelena. Yelena didn't show much joy, but just said the distribution of the Danish garrison, Yu Xiaochen had a plan, and hurriedly led the troops to detour to the north.
The appearance of Yu Xiaochen's cavalry completely reversed the situation in the Rogda hills, and at the same time, the Olin Infantry Regiment also slowly retreated, Cao Yuan only had thousands of remnants, even if he ate the bear's heart and leopard gall, he didn't dare to chase out, so Cao Yuan aimed all his anger at Quasimotu's soldiers and horses, which made Quasimotu bitter. I thought that I would be able to withdraw to the north and leave smoothly, but who had ever thought that the Olin Infantry Regiment that was responsible for the main attack on the north was gone, and the remnants of the Orientals pounced on them like vicious dogs, Quasimotu was not a fool, but for a moment, I figured out that this was a trap and became someone else's outcast. Quasimotu hated Fayunna to death, but he was helpless, if he was Fayunna, he would make the same choice, the Orin Infantry Regiment was too important, and it was absolutely impossible to waste it in such a vicious battle as the queen of the palace. Knowing his fate, Quasimotu has settled down a lot, and whether he can survive or not depends on his fate.
"Break through to the northwest, everyone, charge me" Quasimotu took the lead in rushing to the northwest high slope, in the northwest defense area, there is a high ground, after which you can leave the Rogda hills. At this time, you can't break through to the north, where the main army of the kingdom is stationed, and the reinforcements of the Easterners will definitely do something there, and they will retreat in the direction of due north, isn't it drilling into someone else's pocket? The Danish remnants had no intention of fighting, Cao Yuan held back a fire, chasing the Danes for a while, but he couldn't stop the Danes from escaping after all.
After chasing for a while, Cao Yuan simply stopped chasing, and when he arrived on the high ground in the Northwest Defense Zone, he didn't know what would happen, don't chase after him, he fell into someone else's pocket. Cao Yuan stopped his pursuit, Quasimotu escaped, and he couldn't wait to kowtow to the sky three times, it was really not easy to escape alive. Leaving the Rogda Hills and seeing the smoke of gunfire in the north, Quasimotu secretly rejoiced, but fortunately he did not go north, otherwise he would have thrown himself into the net. At this time, due north, the Danes were already a little panicked, more than 5,000 cavalry under Yu Xiaochen, plus the cavalry that came from Vladimir City before, there were more than 7,000 people together, such a large number of cavalry, fighting head-to-head, even if the Danes were strong and strong, they would inevitably be beaten to the ground. The Flying Bird Knights were ordered to block the attack, Yu Xiaochen quickly organized a chain of horses, and the cavalry in charge of the assault was divided into four columns, and everyone changed to heavy cavalry guns. This was the first time that the Knights of the Birds had had a large-scale collision with the Eastern Cavalry, and until then, the Vladimir Cavalry had been mainly evasive.
Heavy cavalry, chain horses, light cavalry projectiles, the cavalry of the ancient town followed the usual routine, the heavy cavalry began to charge, the Flying Bird Knights did not flinch, rushed over, as the elite cavalry regiment of the kingdom, they had no reason to be afraid of the eastern cavalry on the opposite side. A rain of arrows was thrown down, and the soldiers of the Knights of the Birds running in front planted dozens of people, maybe the lethality was not very good, but just a few rounds of arrow rain were enough to create chaos. The formation was slightly chaotic, the heavy cavalry listened to the cavalry spear burst over, a Danish cavalry did not know the depth, grabbed the shield on the horse's back, and was about to block, but only heard a bang, the Danish cavalry snorted painfully, and even the people with shields flew out upside down, and then fell to the ground with a bang, and just wanted to get up, they were trampled by the horse's hooves and vomited blood. After the heavy cavalry impact, the Flying Bird Knights no longer had a complete formation, and then they encountered a chain of horses, the iron rope swept, and the horses fell in batches, followed by the unlucky cavalry.
After all, the Danes still lack experience in fighting the enemy, although the Knights of the Birds are also experienced in a hundred battles, and their strength is amazing, but most of the wars they have experienced are fought between Norwegians, Swedes and Germans, most of them are traditional cavalry hedges, and they have never encountered such a series of joint combat modes as the ancient town cavalry. Fayunna's heart was dripping with blood, and his face became extremely ugly, the most elite knights in the kingdom lost one-third of their troops in the blink of an eye, and they were powerless to fight back in the face of the Eastern cavalry. No wonder Lothair was defeated so badly, the strength of the Orientals is really amazing, to build such a large number of cavalry, not only need war horses, but also a lot of equipment, this is a huge wealth. If it continued to fight, there was no point, and Fayunna decisively ordered a retreat to Yelinburg. The four thousand men belonging to the Fourth Infantry Regiment of the Kingdom were left behind, and this group of tall and mighty Nordic men formed a tight formation and built a defensive line with the wooden shields in their hands. The 4th Infantry Regiment, also known as the Norwegian Sweepers, most of the troops came from the bitter cold of northland Norway, due to the harsh climate and the scarcity of food, so most of the Norwegians were excellent hunters in the woods, and they have always occupied a pivotal position in the kingdom's army. Unfortunately, this time the Norwegian sweepers encountered the more brave and warlike cavalry of the ancient town, the cavalry cut, the chain of horses slashed and slashed, and in just one hour, the Norwegians who stayed behind the palace were defeated.
Wilmont led the remnants of the army to continue to resist, watching the bright red lives fall in front of him, and the courage in his heart was also consumed little by little. This is not a battle at all, but a killing, and the warriors use their lives to block the hooves of the Easterners. For the first time, Wilmont realized that the Orientals were powerful, and that they were able to defeat the Germans by strength, not luck. A soldier was cut in two by a cavalry knife, and Vermont trembled, and finally led the men to their knees and begged for mercy. To live, just to live, even if it is to be a slave.
In the battle of the Rogda hills, after the Danes paid a heavy price, they still failed to complete the strategy of breaking through to the south, and the Rogda garrison also suffered huge losses, and the destruction of the Tiger Battalion was a blow to the head. Neither side could be happy, because there was no winner in the strict sense of the word, only who was more miserable. The Danes who returned to Yellinburg were still nervous, and Fayunna quickly summoned the nobles to discuss. Now the Danish aristocracy has all bowed their proud heads, and if in the past they looked down on the Orientals, now they are only afraid. The Knights of the Birds are so powerful, in a matter of moments, they were beaten and fled like dogs.
Looking at this group of pale nobles, Fayunna's heart was full of sneers, after suffering this loss, he will be able to remember it for a long time in the future, this group of people has always taken the Orientals seriously, and now they have finally learned a lesson, "After the battle of the Rogda hills, the Orientals will definitely continue to go north, it seems that the Germans near Vladimir have lost their role, in order to avoid falling into a vicious battle, this king has decided to start evacuating Yerinburg tomorrow." ”
"Yes" This time the nobles agreed to Fayunna's order in unison, and they didn't care about any face in order to survive. It was only at this time that the specific information of Vladimir City was put in front of Fayunna, and although he was mentally prepared, he still felt a little frightened when he saw that Lothair had been killed. Lothair is the king of the Holy Roman Empire, and the Orientals say they will kill if they say, is this confident, or stupid?
Lothair's death strengthened Faunna's determination to evacuate Yerinburg. In the middle of the first month, the Danish army began to leave the area of Yellinburg in batches, and at this time, Gao Chong and Yang Zaixing, together with Haidongzhu, also gathered 40,000 troops in the Rogda Hills and began to advance into Yellinburg. Along the way, the remnants of Danman's soldiers fled in despair, only hating their father and mother for missing two legs, the battle of Rogda, the strength of the Orientals has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and many Danish soldiers have lost the courage to continue fighting. Yang Zaixing attacked quickly with cavalry, but in the end he only bit the tail of the Danes, and as for the main army of Fayunna, it had withdrawn to the Baltic Sea unharmed. It is a pity that they failed to entangle the Danes and give them a hard blow.
The recapture of Yellinburg meant that the chaotic situation that had plagued Kipros for so long was finally resolved. The moment the golden dragon flag was replanted at the head of the city, many Kipros celebrated the moment with singing and dancing, they hated war, and now they finally drove it out of their land, as for what would happen in the future, ordinary people naturally did not think about it, and it was not something they could consider. For thousands of years, Kipros had suffered from war and had been pressed by the Danes and Germans, and if it weren't for this, Viache would not have been in a hot head to gather his forces to the east. Now everything has changed, not only the destruction of the most powerful kingdom of Saxony in Germania, but also the defeat of the army of the Kingdom of Denmark.
Hai Dongzhu directly moved the command office from Vladimir to Yerinburg, and the city of Kiev and Vladimir were assigned to Cao Yuan and Yu Xiaochen. This arrangement is also a preparation for the Baltic Sea strategy in the future. There are still many things to be solved, the Danes plundered and left a mess behind, and the first thing Hai Dongzhu had to do was to mobilize food from Turov and Komi to ensure that the people of Yerinburg could survive until the beginning of spring. A few days passed quickly, and Yellinburg was slowly recovering and things were developing in an orderly manner.
