"Brad!" Bohemond, who rushed back on horseback, with red eyes and angry shouts, clamped his horse's belly with his feet, and stabbed several Turks who came to fight with one hand, and the rest of the Norman knights of the Holy Banner Guard, accompanied by the Duke of Apulia and the Marquis of Saint-Gilles and the Marquis of Provence, who also turned back to fight, stood up with spears and swords to fight and clash, and the pilgrim infantry who came back to their senses also used bows and crossbows to stubbornly resist the Turkic cavalry, and they were often cut to pieces by another rushing Turk after shooting down an enemy and falling off their horses.

The narrow passage of the river valley is full of figures of human and horse conflicts, and on the other side of the mountain, where Bohemond and Raymond cannot see, countless Turkic new cavalry, in a tight formation, through the plains and woodlands, towards the melee to assemble, the leader is the chief emir warrior under the command of Yaji, Adsonius, who originally commanded Yaji's most elite 10,000 cavalry, from the iron gate behind the city, hidden in the mountains, actually detoured to the opposite side of the iron bridge, and gathered thousands of Antioch natives in the middle, mostly the Saracens who hated the pilgrims, and the Turkic king of Aleppo, Km. Dewan. Ibn and the two thousand cavalry reinforcements sent by Tutoshi, when Adsonius, who had a great command of his troops, saw that Aji had raised a large and conspicuous crimson banner on the tower, and the smoke that had been burning to bewitch the enemy, he commanded his cavalry, and first swept through the scattered camps of the pilgrims on the plains on the east bank of the Orontes River, slaughtering hundreds of them, and then approaching and raiding the ranks of Bohemond and Raymond.

Adesonius, who had jumped up the ridge and looked down on the scuffle below, raised his hand. The slave soldier beside him suddenly blew his horn and waved his tooth flag. The other cavalry, which had received the order, cut off the passage between the mountains and Asase with lightning speed. Surrounded by General Orson's rear, two hundred Genat Greek cavalry were forced to retreat to the river and fight bitterly.

Arrows and feathers rained in, "Shoot back, shoot back, let them see the fighting skills of the Cilician warriors." Orson and his brother Haarlem held their shields against the torrent of arrows and encouraged the Jinats around them. Hold on.

At the Tieqiao estuary fortress over there, Sir Burns, under the command of Raymond, and 500 Provençals were originally stationed, but now when they saw the lord being attacked, they also worked hard to stand out from the fortress, but on the mountain road, they were fired by the Turks' rapid arrows from front to back, left and right, and they went forward one after another, and the dead and wounded were scattered. Half an hour later, he still did not support, and returned to the fortress and closed his door to defend himself.

By this time, Raymond was still fighting to the death with his spear raised, almost all the Provençals, Calabrians, Normans, and Genats of Cilicia. They all turned sideways in formation, with their backs to the river, and stretched out their swords and spears. Although he suffered heavy casualties, he still insisted on fighting for his life with the Turks who came in turn.

Bohemond wavered again. He pulled the newly baptized Turkic Doyakum. Bohemond, "You are familiar with the path here. You have to get out of with me and the guards! ”

"Please rest assured, Master Hou." Without saying a word, New Bo Himmond rushed to the front of the line. The formation and banner of the Siyan army were very familiar, and they were called to charge at the weak point of the enemy's siege formation, and under his guidance, the knights of the guard beside Bohemond were also fully clothed and charged with spears, and the Duke of Apulia, under the rain of pagan arrows, followed closely, and for the time being he would abandon his desire to avenge the tragic death of Braid, "For the sake of the founding of the Normans, I cannot die recklessly." "Like a wild goat struggling to escape a hunter, it leaps from bush to bush and wood, and is nimble.

The matter of whether the Norman duke escaped from the tiger's mouth or not, put aside the pen for the time being, and the smoke was in the middle. Siyan stood upright on the tower, and a small black flag was raised: under the Stone Fort of the Holy Spring, there were also countless Turkic soldiers covered with black scarves, who slashed and killed the defenders and pilgrims on both sides of the gable, carrying bloody blades and heads, shouting the names of Allah and the Prophet, jumping in on the ladder, and melee with the defenders in the stone fort, in which there were many Armenians in the battle ranks on both sides, and they could not tell each other apart, and they mixed together to cut and fight each other, and some of them directly plucked out each other's eyeballs"Allah is akbar! Kafeile is all dead! "When, in the midst of the chaotic crowd, Pak'ad (whose bald head is more conspicuous) who was hit by a gun and stick fell bleeding on the edge of the inner wall, several Turks pounced and raised their scimitars to cut him.

The moment they hesitated, Parkaard shouted, drew his saber and took the opportunity to cut down one of them, and then plunged the blade deep into the abdomen of the other guy who didn't react - Hercules, who had come to save his father, also came close to assassinate one in the back.

"It's so important to know a few foreign languages and religions. Hercules, my son, mount quickly, and I will give you my mount. The bald head threw down his sword, and panted to pick up a long iron rod, and danced, forcing the surrounding enemies back, and giving up his horse to his son.

Hercules is not polite, the stone fort is in danger today, in case of trouble, not both father and son can die here, just look at this young Armenian warrior, covered his mouth and nose, up and down on horseback, suddenly moved down to avoid the flying arrows, suddenly soared up and galloped wildly, under the enemy's indiscriminate slashing and shooting, in a short time galloped out of the stone fort, and protruded the mountain path in the smoke, towards St. Paul's Gate.

"What, the stone castle hasn't fallen yet, it's all a pagan trick, and my uncle is in danger ahead?" In the anti-rock camp in front of the city gate, Tancrad, who was already wearing armor, looked at Hercules, who came to report the news with smoke and dust, but hesitated, "Now do you want to save your uncle, or do you want to save the stone fort?" ”

"To save His Excellency the Duke, of course." Richard, beside him, didn't think twice.

But on the other side, who was on a horse and was ready to go, he was also a mercenary. Borduka disagreed, and asked for a detachment to be sent to the rescue of the Stone Fort, while Lord Tancred stayed in the fortifications, as the St. Paul's Gate was about to break out into fierce fighting.

Everywhere people shouted horses, but Tanfred did not hesitate for long, "Richard followed me to gallop and save my uncle; Ostu and Hercules, with half of the men, went to the rescue of the Stone Fort. ”

At this moment, an envoy from the Ardmar camp shouted to Tancred, who was wearing a helmet, "The priesthood has asked you to stay in the fortified and not move indiscriminately. In the battle on the other side of the Iron Bridge, the priesthood will arrange for the troops of the Roman Empire to go to reinforcements, which are very close to the troops of the Marquis of Bohemond. ”

"Who can expect an enemy with a bloody feud in the past to save him?" Tancred didn't believe or buy it, and then with all the elite foot riders, he poured out of the camp and ran towards the distant battle site. (To be continued.) )
