"Hold your breath and wait until the enemy brigade crosses the river before attacking. www.biquge.info Three thousand people are enough, and no more people can ambush them...... "At this moment, several Zupan nobles with rich battlefield experience, all of whom were particularly relied on by Berdin, all pressed the prince's shoulders and arms and puffed up calmly, so that the young man could not be impatient for a while. As long as we can catch the enemy by surprise, we will not be able to give full play to the opponent's numerical superiority in this terrain on both sides of the riverbank, and we will definitely win.

As soon as the trumpet sounded, Prince Lalic pushed aside the bushes and grass that stood in front of him, and saw the banner of the Fish of Christ fluttering on the opposite bank, which he remembered vividly, and which had been routed by the generals of this banner on the battle line of the Evros River, and had sent cavalry to chase him for two days and one night!

The heavy pressure made the prince agitated and nervous, how to grasp the chance of ambush with a salvo from the Za'tar Musketeers? The question continued to twitch and roll in the prince's mind.

Over there, General Merlot paced to the fort on his horse, asked Decius, Atretis and other generals a few questions, and then nodded in agreement, "Your Majesty's intelligence network also shows that Berdin, a hyena, also purchased firearms and artillery from Ragusa and Venice in an attempt to fight against the Roman army. The way we can solve the problem is not to be careless when we encounter a possible ambush site, and to keep firing artillery to test and expel them, because the garrison stations are well stocked with supplies and ammunition. ”

After saying that, after the artillery forts and vehicles, the shooting corps of the brigade stepped forward in unison, set up their long guns, and aimed them at the empty sand and dense forests on the opposite bank.

Soon, the long perfume cannon began to fire violently, and Artretis, who held the hilt of his sword, watched as the muzzles of the guns spewed hot light one after another, and the gunners took turns taking turns to take out the canisters and put them in. The trees on the opposite side were shaken and trembled, the fallen leaves and branches fluttered everywhere, the stones and dirt were lifted and fell, and in some places they were beaten into smoke.

"Fight over there again!" Merlot pointed to the woods on the side with his horsewhip.

So the gunners spent another effort, slowly turning the perfume bottle cannon on wheels, and then using the gun wedge and bolts to adjust the elevation angle.

The muzzle of the cannon was not far from where Prince Lalic was hiding.

Bullet after shell then smashed down on the prince's side, and the prince's mood became even more unstable.

He grabbed the rock and shifted his bearings, and saw that the enemy on the other side of the river was disassembling more and more artillery and assembling it behind or in the middle of the forts and vehicles on the shore, and the tentative artillery fire became more and more intense, as if they had no need to spend lead or iron!

After about two moments, the perfume bottle cannon finally stopped firing after the trembling water and thick smoke of gunpowder. A group of cavalry pressed several rows of lightly armed infantry with woolen shields, and began to trek through the shallow water to the sandy ground, and then they carefully inserted the shield behind the soft ground, the helmets flashed, and their faces were shown from time to time, behind a temporary barrier formed by a clump of woolen shields, several shooting soldiers carrying featherweight shrimp whiskers or holding iron fires with wooden handles slowly walked out, forming a loose fan and walking towards the deep woods and shrubs, the iron fire in the hands of the soldiers could not only explode but also burn, about to burn the forest, In order to prevent ambushes, it is really necessary to do everything.

Prince Lalic turned around and held Mingzu Pan, the other party was hit by the lead pellet from the perfume bottle cannon, and half of his left arm was pulled out of a big wound, which was miserable, although he did not die for the time being, he must have been infected, which was really more miserable than dying immediately.

The prince's anger rose suddenly, and he looked down with red eyes, and the sparse array of enemy soldiers had begun to bury shrimp cannons in the earth, and some soldiers had set up large guns with short wooden handles and flares, and were ready to shoot them at the mouth of the guns.

"What are you waiting for, you're going to be found out soon!" Prince Lalic didn't care anymore and pulled out his saber directly.

A violent roar exploded, and Atretis saw several rows of gunpowder smoke and flames suddenly erupt from the dense forest on the other side, and involuntarily took two steps back, and Merlot on the horse also retreated in shock - on the half-moon-shaped sand on the opposite bank, the wool shield was broken and shattered by the debris fluttering everywhere, and some of the sharp soldiers who were walking in front were shot to the ground, and some of them swayed in pain for a few steps before falling.

"There is an ambush, there is an ambush!" Behind the wool shield, the rest of the sentinels scrambled to run into the river, and for a time the Iskar was full of moving men and horses, stirring the waves in circles.

And the cannons and guns in Merlot's fort began to fire fiercely.

The sound shook the valley between the cliffs on both sides, and the sound of trumpets, horses' hooves, shouts of men, and cannons boiled......

In this way, Lalic's ambush was discovered, and the two armies fought each other across the river for a long time, and the prince of Dukria and his ambushed troops saw that they could not achieve their goal, so they retreated to the side of the hill, and Merlot did not chase after him, but asked the soldiers and craftsmen of the two brigades to build fortifications on both sides of the river, and even spent two days building a pontoon bridge, and then the whole army passed cautiously, and continued to advance towards the city of Boyana, with the spirit of "no matter how you come, I just walk slowly, and I will always get there."

When Les Vono heard of this, Berding was furious, and did not dare to openly scold his son, for fear that it would arouse greater disgust and disgust among the Zupan nobles, so he could only withdraw the 3,000 rangers he had previously sent to Stara Pass and send them to Boyana to strengthen the garrison.

On the hills opposite the fortress, Gawain's troops also encircled earthen ramparts and fences and made artillery positions, and after the artillery battle really began, Berdeen realized that the other side was completely crushing itself in quantity and quality.

After all, in the past two years, the large workshop of the Alaman ladder in Asia Minor, the Santa Barbara cannon casting workshop in Tarsus, and the firearms forging in places such as the Great and Small Sis, Melitene and other places have always been in operation, the slaves of the Slavs and the Caucasus have worked hard, and the Syrian engineers have supervised the work, and now the first to open in Constantinople is also the original royal large ordnance factory, and the number of artillery owned by Gawain far exceeds that of Venice, which was originally famous for its arms and ship manufacturing, and Ragusa is not in his eyes. And Berdeen just bought a few cannons from Ragusa, how can he confront Gawain if he hasn't even formed a scale?

Vehicles and ships escorted the fleet to constantly transport cannon barrels and other parts, there were four hills were built artillery positions, becoming a "ring" besieging the city barrier of Leswono, every day there are powerful fire bear cannons, together with the large plani stone throwing machine, from the direction of the heavy stone pellets and iron bullets, whistling and smashing to the city barrier, smashing out clouds of white powder smoke, the whole fortress shook and tilted, trapped in a state of hard support, Berdin launched manpower day and night to repair, and was already exhausted, and Gawain was at ease.

"The cannonball is the last evidence that I am the emperor!" The new emperor used the iron of the projectile to tell Berdeen what it meant to "use the mantis arm as a car".
