Muzafi Addin, who was under the military flag, took off the hook on his belt, pulled out the bowstring, and quickly set it between the bow ears, and then stepped on the horseback and half-stood upright, accompanied by Gawain's side, and fired arrows like lightning, and the lightly armed servants around the rushing emir screamed one after another and were pierced through the body, and rolled upside down on the ground of the valley, raising clouds of blood-colored dust.

But the brave emir, still wrapped in a patterned turban and holding a sharp spear blade, kept shouting for the protection of Allah and the Prophet, and the men and horses swept over Muzafiadin's arrows, and flew to Gawain, and Goliath waved the morning star hexagonal hammer, "Die, unbelievers!" "The few slaves who had been guarding the emir threw their tomahawks and scimitars like a rain of rain onto the tower-like armor of Goliath. Goliath was struck a few times in an instant, but fortunately he was wearing several layers of chain mail, the tips of which were wedged in between, but the giant raised his hammer in anger and smashed a slave soldier and his horse to the ground.

Several Brotherhoods and Saxon Guards warriors around Gawain also drove their horses and raised axes, and strangled with the soldiers around the emir, and Gawain himself took the Norman cavalry spear handed over by Muzafiadin, and the quicksilver under him roared like thunder, and the blade of the spear was about half a foot longer, grazing the emir's shoulder armor, and the emir's spear tip was in the air.

"Drink!" The emir was bleeding profusely from his neck, and he no longer dared to turn his horse around and fight Gawain again.

In the melee of thousands of troops, the soldiers on both sides shouted like thunder, and the emir took the reins, threw down his spear, and ran wildly. At the same time, Gawain drew his Macedonian halberd, threw down his spear, and kicked up billowing smoke and dust, and tiptoed behind him.

The two horsemen skimmed over the hill first. Then it crossed the stream like the wind, splashing the water, and after a hundred feet, it was where the Turkic formation of Atta City was, but Gawain's quicksilver horse's hooves slapped faster, and the halberd in his hand slashed down like lightning. The emir's shoulders and head were cut into three pieces. Gawain then turned and turned his horse away, and countless oncoming arrows fell behind him and fell into the stream.

The ambush attacks of the defenders on the flanks of the Red Hand Brigade broke up on all fronts, while on other fronts, Baldwin and Hugh's armies also trampled on and destroyed the Turkic front from the left and right flanks, and the defenders who went out of the city to resist the battle crawled one after another. From the light and dark gates, he escaped back to the gatehouse tower in the city and guarded it.

The elite procession of tens of thousands of pilgrims surrounded the city of Atta on three sides, and only one river valley could not be enclosed because of the vastness of the terrain. Nearly the entire city of Atta was shrouded in a terrifying vertigo, causing the defenders to look at the city of Antioch, which was only ten geourges away. A bonfire was lit to call for help.

"Do you need siege reinforcements?" Then all the generals gathered in the camp tent, Baldwin. Eustace was a quick learner and asked Gawain so.

"The valley ahead, at the junction of the Orontes and Falfa rivers, is flat and intertwined with rivers. If the length of our army's battle line is insufficient, it can easily be outflanked and divided by nimble pagan light cavalry. "Brother Hugh of the King of France. Capet, who was also a thoughtful and shrewd general, unanimously agreed on his concerns, and Hugh raised his scepter. "Falfa flows through the northern part of Antioch, and the army of His Excellency the Priesthood of Ademar will arrive along this river on these two days." We surrounded the city of Atar, and the rest of the army camped in the direction of the city of Antioch, and waited for the great army of Ademar to join us.

At the same time, in the magnificent city of Antioch, ten miles away, I saw the urgent beacon fire ignited by the gateway Atta City. With a heavy heart, Siyan summoned all his subordinates to discuss the important matter of blocking the pilgrim army.

Yagi sits in the hall inscribed with Proverbs inscriptions. Siyang, with his long gray beard bent and hanging straight down to his belly, will give everyone Yaji. Siyan is particularly full of wisdom and feeling.

But Yaggie. Xiyang's origins are actually the same as those of Gilligi. Like the Hajib under Arslan, he was the personal slave of the Seljuk Sultan Malikshah, and was very lowly.

After the capture of the city of Antioch twelve years earlier, Mariksa appointed him as the emir of Antioch. After the death of Malikshah, his younger brother Ridwan. Tutush, inherited the land of Aleppo, but Yaji was arrested by the palace of Ridwan's "Grand Vizier". Dora had always been at odds with each other, so he entrenched himself in Antioch, and was in harmony with his suzerain, Ridwan, and secretly colluded with the ruler of Damascus, Governor Dukak, to seek independence - before the arrival of the Pilgrim army, Yaggi and Ridwan fought many times, and just after a ceasefire was reached - Yaggi married his daughter to Ridwan and nominally reassigned to the state of Aleppo.

"You can't count on reinforcements from that fellow Ridwan. I have too much grudge against him. "Come to think of it, Yaggie. Siyan sighed and put down the manuscript in his hand, "It's Ramadan, and I encourage all the warriors to be bold and fight the enemy and hold on to this huge and solid city." Messengers and spies were sent to Kobha in Mosul, who had an army of nearly 70,000 men, and Doqak of Damascus, who also had 30,000 warlike men. As long as everyone unites, it will be enough to crush this hornet-like sting of pilgrims. ”

"The king of Babylon (referring to the Fatimid Caliphate of Egypt, as Egypt was then called Babylon), and the Sultan of Rham, and the emir of Danishmund." Siyan's son, Sansadonias, took the scroll of letter from his father and continued to ask.

Yaji stroked his long beard with his hand, "Of course, it would be wisest to call for help, and it would be wisest for all the Messengers to abandon the previous barrier and join forces to expel the infidels from Syria!" And the pivotal figure of the union should be us. ”

"Yes, father."

"Sansadonias, my son, you will be the commander-in-chief of the city after the battle breaks out." And then Yaggie. Siyan turned his gaze to the four emirs he relied on the most, Adesonius, Kupasiksin, Rosselon, and Kazknuz, all of whom were the most warlike warriors in the land, "And the four of you, in two days, will command 10,000 foot cavalry and concentrate on guarding the mouth of the Orontes River, and as long as the fortress at the mouth of the river is not lost, the enemy will not threaten Antioch. ”

When the son and the four emirs were ordered to retreat, Yaji. Siyang got up, and he followed the servant, through the many corridors, to the gloomy dungeon of the palace, where an old man was hanging from the stone wall by iron ropes, and moaned incessantly.

"John. Oakhill, I'm sorry that I won't be able to regain your freedom until the enemy has retreated. (To be continued.) )
