(2nd Month Pass)

The coalition soldiers tried to resist, but to no avail. The crossbows in the hands of these rabble were not as good as those of the Norman crossbowmen, and they fought separately, and the arrows they shot were scattered and unorganized, that is, neither dense nor compact. The lethality was limited, and as soon as the palms of the small number of soldiers who swam over crossed the boat reached the gang, the Normans cut off a large number of their fingers with an axe, and the palms became bald, which also made the amateur water ghost scream, and then fell back into the water, and was strafed by the Norman crossbowmen, and a burst of blood scattered, and after a while, the corpse floated to the surface......

In this way, the Allied soldiers could not inflict effective casualties on the Norman sailors. However, the crossbowmen on the Norman fleet were able to shoot at the Allied soldiers on the shore calmly, although the ship was slightly bumpy and it was not easy to aim. However, the coalition formation is too dense, and there is almost no need to aim, and you can shoot people with a random arrow. It's no different from shooting a target. The Norman crossbowmen were in high spirits, and four thousand five hundred crossbowmen shot desperately in places with a large number of people under the dispatch of their respective officers.

There are a total of thirty crossbow arrows in a bag, and the shooting speed of the pulley crossbow is a little slower, and it can shoot one arrow in about fifteen seconds on average, if the two armies are fighting, the opposing cavalry rushes over, and only one or two crossbow arrows can be fired. However, this time it is different, the coalition army of more than 20,000 people and horses are not subordinate to each other, and they have not undergone special training, so it is very difficult to dispatch.

Some Eastern European aristocrats, as well as career officers from Eastern Rome, shouted for silence, but the orders were contradictory. The army was wandering around, not knowing who to listen to - and even if they did, it would be useless. The vast majority of the peasants and soldiers were illiterate, and could not distinguish between the south, east, west, and left, and the left, and the right, and the front. When fighting a war, the two simplest commands: rush, flee! What else can be done in the face of such an unexpected situation except to wait for death?!

In nearly eight minutes, the Norman crossbowmen ran out of ammunition, and the 4,500 crossbowmen fired a total of more than 100,000 crossbow arrows, killing and wounding nearly a third of the coalition soldiers. Completely disrupted the opponent's formation. In fact, halfway through this round of attacks, the coalition forces lost their resolve to resist.

The soldiers listened to the dying screams of their comrades, and their bodies involuntarily scurried around with the rushing flow of people - the Norman army to the north was also there, so naturally they would not go there. To the west, the Vistula River was where the Normans attacked, although some of them panicked, or were left empty, or pushed down. However, most of them were dead ends, and the noble soldiers wearing chain armor and scale armor were the kings who sank to the bottom, and those who couldn't swim choked a few times until they hung up, and those who could swim blamed them for grabbing their hands and feet and falling together......

In the south, the coalition soldiers behind the army fled and trampled each other to death, but some of them were lucky enough to escape. The worst of all was to the east, where the soldiers panicked and ran towards the positions of their allies, the Eastern Romans, and disrupted the Eastern Roman front. At the same time, these screaming and fleeing soldiers also reduced the morale of the Eastern Romans......

"The left flank is lost!" cried the Eastern Roman soldiers in terror. At the same time, the frontal Celtic and Norman soldiers also took advantage of the situation to launch a counterattack.

However, this was not the end - on the left flank, in the west, the Norman light infantry on the battleship of the dragon's head, after the crossbowmen attacked, quickly rowed ashore, threw a burst of axes at the chaotic coalition forces, and began to charge, and the descendants of the pirates with Viking blood roared wildly, laughed, and chopped the coalition soldiers to the ground like wheat with their upper bodies and two-handed battle axes in their hands. and continued, together with Anderson's Pomeranian legion, to drive them against the Eastern Roman line.

Immediately afterwards, the Livonian garrison led by General Aven, a total of 3,500 professional Viking warriors, also landed one after another, and the entire left flank became crowded again. The Normans scrambled on corpses and slashed with their tomahawks to create passages!

"It's the Normans, the Normans, ahhh!!hh

The coalition forces on the left flank completely collapsed under such continuous and strong blows. After this, the Norman infantry, numbering tens of thousands, occupied the left flank and began to attack the flank of the Eastern Roman army in front. ,

"This battle can't be fought! Let's go!" on the right flank of the battlefield. I watched my men be slashed by the Norman hussars little by little. Several Tatar chieftains consulted a little. He also decided to run away.

"Let's go! We're not going to give the Romans any more life!

The steppe herdsmen inexplicably held a grudge against the Romans at this moment. Immediately after that, a small number of broken troops were also left, and then the remnants of the soldiers followed the chief of their own tribe, and fled in a hurry like lost dogs. The hussars did not go in pursuit, but ran directly to the frontal battlefield, and the right flank of the Roman legions ran over.

"It's over......" Princess Lilianu closed her eyes tightly. Clenched his fists tightly. Only then did he realize that he had fallen for the other side's scheme - to deliberately show weakness on the left flank on the banks of the Vistula, to allow himself to constantly strengthen the left flank army, and to put all the reserves into it. After that, the navy army was dispatched to launch an attack by surprise. Completely destroy the left flank and cause the left flank army to storm the main position......

Her Royal Highness the Princess fully understood the other party's plan. But it was too late, the two wings of his own army were lost, and the troops from the countries of Eastern Europe had already disappeared. The army from the Eastern Romans was demoralized and was attacked from three sides. The reserve in his hand was only a brigade of 300 Roman Imperial Guards. It doesn't work.

Her Royal Highness knew that her own battle, this time as the Supreme Commander, would end in complete defeat and a resounding victory for the Norman-Celtic forces.

Her Royal Highness staggered, her eyes dizzy and she almost fell to the ground. He clutched his hands over his chest. Chest tightness, palpitations, and bursts of heartache, I don't know if it was because of the excitement of defeat or the excitement of the slaughter of the army.

"Damn it......" Lilianu muttered in a low voice, thinking of the seven thousand elites that she had worked so hard on, spent countless money, countless efforts, and spent six years to pile up, and they were all gone all of a sudden, and then she felt sick. After that, his throat was sweet, and he spit out a mouthful of blood with a "wow".

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?!" The Imperial Forest Army next to him was a little frightened when he saw his princess like this. At the same time, he looked at her with blank eyes, waiting for orders.

"If this palace ...... What if this palace orders you to go into battle with this palace to kill the enemy now?" Lilianu asked after wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth with the back of her hand, feeling a lot more sober.

"Obey the order and swear to the death!" The soldiers of the Royal Forest Army naturally knew what the current situation was, and their three hundred soldiers went immediately just to add food to others. And yet they all replied. Words are firm and do not seem to act. Her Royal Highness Princess Lilianu was a little relieved.

"Not bad...... But no. Her Royal Highness shook her head and said, "We will retreat, and we will not fight for a long time...... There will always be a comeback. ”

Hearing Her Royal Highness say this, the Guards were a little relieved - though they were not afraid of death. But the same doesn't like to die in vain. Seeing that the Normans were getting closer and closer, their own army could not resist and showed signs of collapse. Although there were occasionally two hot-blooded guys shouting, "Rome!" there were few answers. Instead, it attracted the attention of the Normans, and the bows, crossbows, axes, and javelins were projected, leaving not even a single corpse......

The soldiers of the Imperial Guards did not dare to hesitate any longer, and hurriedly took the mounts and horses of Princess Lilianu, and each stepped on horseback—although the soldiers of the Imperial Guards were all infantry, they were well paid, and they were all equipped with horses, marching on horseback, and fighting on foot. Therefore, there is no panic. They wanted to escape, but they planted a lot of flags on the hills as suspicious soldiers. At the same time, it is also to calm the morale of the army.

With that, everything was arranged, and Lilianu gritted her teeth and choked between her teeth: "Retreat." "Two words. After that, he left his army behind, and did not return to the barracks, but went straight to a colony in Eastern Rome to the south, escorted by a group of royal guards.

By this time, it was close to dusk. Lack of light to make it difficult to see. So it wasn't until Lilianu had been running for a while that a few of the routs who had come close noticed the situation.

"The crown prince ran away, the princess ran away, the princess left the army and ran away!!"

The routs shouted in horror. The Eastern Roman army was in an uproar, and few had the heart to resist. Surrender to surrender to flee to escape. The battlefield was filled with cries, screams, and shouts of Normans and Celts.

"Victory! We won!!"

After a long day of fierce fighting, the soldiers' physical strength was almost exhausted - but at this moment, the strength of the Norman and Celtic soldiers seemed to have returned all at once. Began to cheer loudly, laughing, grabbing prisoners, grabbing things......

At this moment, Artoria also received a letter from the scouts and learned that the opposing commander had escaped.

"Did you run away? Hmph, hehe, ahhahahaha...... It's really useless -- send the order! Order the Romans to stop resisting and surrender! The mourners are in a good mood today, and they can spare their lives!"

At this moment, Artoria was indeed in a very happy mood -- because she had defeated the Eastern Romans! Although this was a great achievement, a victory was a victory -- a superpower that Egil had never defeated -- and yet she, Altoria, had triumphed! Her Royal Highness, Her Majesty, the most noble woman in all Europe, was naturally glad to be able to. In this way, she has the capital to show off in front of Egil......

Although that capital is not the chest.
