The mountain roads were narrow, and the only advantage that the Norman hussars had was that the soldiers could not cooperate with each other. For a time, it was suppressed to the death - fortunately, the narrow nature of the mountain road also made it impossible for the opposing light infantry to exert it. One-on-one, although the Norman hussars could not have the upper hand in combat skills, but because they had some advantages in terms of equipment, they would not be defeated for a while.

The daggers in the hands of the light infantry of the Eastern Romans came from the hands of the local peasant garrisons, and the shoddy daggers in the earthen workshops were nothing compared to the steel scimitars in the hands of the Norman hussars made by the National Unified Weapons Workshop. In yesterday's battle, it was shown that those daggers were in battle with the Norman hussars, and some of them even broke their daggers directly because they used too much force. But the scimitar in the hands of the Norman hussars did not even have a gap - of course, this does not mean that the scimitar in the hands of the Norman hussars was an artifact that sharpened iron like clay and made quick decisions. It's just relative, relative. Cutting off people's heads is too much, and the knife edge is also curled......

As for the armor on the body, the Norman hussars used composite leather armor, which was made of two layers of fine cowhide clips and sewn together. The entire torso is protected, and the legs are covered with leather armor tied to the outside of the hands, and there are special knee pads for the joints. The entire suit of armor is very ergonomic, moving at all joints, barely affecting one's movement, but providing adequate defense. The defense against blunt weapons is first-class, and against light weapons, such as one-handed swords, it also has a good defensive effect - even if the opponent uses a two-handed sword, a large sword, etc., if you are lucky, you will probably be able to escape.

As for the armor used by the light infantry of Eastern Rome, it was a single layer, which could only block distant arrows, and even small weapons such as swords could hardly resist. And only the torso is armoured, and the limbs are exposed.

In this way, the Eastern Roman light infantry slashed with a sword, unless it was very forceful, piercing the leather armor and hitting the vital parts. Otherwise, it is impossible to hurt them. However, the Norman hussars can easily penetrate the opponent's armor with one move, and it is easy and pleasant to cut meat and bones.

However, the number of Norman hussars was simply too small...... In total, there are only a hundred or several dozen people. And now it's only half of them. Artoria watched his soldiers be frustrated at the mountain pass, but he was afraid that the other side would have a follow-up move, so he did not dare to send troops to help, so he had to order the Norman hussars to fight and retreat, and return to their original positions.

However, the trail is not so easy to walk, and even if there are no obstacles, it will take a bit of work to climb it. Not to mention the fact that while engaging the enemy, he retreated. Eventually, the Norman hussars were blocked at a very difficult mountain pass. It was a little difficult to climb here, and the hussars had to climb for more than ten seconds with both hands and feet. In this way, a total of more than seventy Norman knights eventually climbed up to twenty, and the rest were blocked by the Eastern Roman light infantry, which outnumbered them by four times.

If you try to climb up, the javelinmen behind you will take the opportunity to throw and attack the hussars from behind. As a result, the hussars did not dare to climb any further, and had no choice but to engage in a fierce battle with the enemy here.

"Go to the aid. Artoria rubbed her splitting head before ordering. Then he was still in front, but he was a little lightheaded, and he almost fell—he had to walk more slowly, and when he reached the top of the mountain, there were only thirty Norman hussars left.

"Pull those soldiers up!" Artoria ordered, "Shoot the archers!"

Artoria gave the order in this way, and the attitude of being on the front line, so that the Norman hussars who were originally a little flustered reinvigorated, a total of twenty lightly armed archers opened their bows and arrows to shoot in bursts, but because of the distance, coupled with the mountainous terrain and dense jungle, the effect was not very good, only two javelinmen who were not long-eyed, too far forward were shot, one of them seemed to be dead in the middle of the chest, and the other was only shot in the thigh, the screams were quite high, but they should not die.

"Damn it. Seeing this, Artoria felt that her head hurt even more. It was as if it was about to explode, and there seemed to be two things in front of me, and I was in a bad state to death. In this state, let alone killing the enemy, it is very difficult to maintain a standing posture. Artoria had no choice but to move his body, leaning against the trunk of a tree without a trace, and then gritted his teeth, and ordered:

"Keep shooting - shoot those enemy light infantry! All the Norman hussars come forward! We will fight back!"

Artoria gave this order, and the remaining more than 100 Norman hussars responded violently, and the morale of the Norman and Celtic armies was boosted.

On the other hand, some Eastern Roman soldiers who had seen Artoria shouted excitedly: "It's Artoria!

So, on the other hand, the Eastern Roman army was also demoralized by the appearance of Artoria.

The Norman hussars and the temporary light infantry of the Eastern Romans began a fierce battle on this narrow field. And because of the slope of the terrain and the projection of both sides, the supporting troops did not have to be afraid to project bows or javelins at the backs of their own soldiers, as long as the angle was slightly adjusted, they could hit the enemy, so that while the two light infantry units were killing with sabers and short swords, while the blood flowed like rivers of blood, on their heads, javelins and bows and arrows also flew violently against each other......

Both sides did their best to make their formations denser in order to be able to devote more troops in such a narrow area. As a result, both sides were crowded by each other - and even after being killed by the other side, they were unable to fall because the formation was too compact and they were squeezed in the middle by the soldiers next to them.

In this way, both sides have strengths and weaknesses. At the beginning, the battle line was spread out in a relatively narrow area, which could only accommodate two or three people at the same time, so the Eastern Roman soldiers, who had the upper hand in terms of individual bravery, had the advantage. Soon, however, Artoria noticed this and asked the Norman hussars to push the line forward a little bit. So under the cover of the last round of arrows of the archers, several hussars roared wildly, and pounced directly downward, using their own flesh and blood plus the force of the fall, so that the opposing light infantry staggered - but they themselves were stabbed by the light infantry - and then the remaining Norman hussars took advantage of the situation to attack, and they were stunned to advance the battle line several meters.

However, Sui Zhan was only about three meters, but the situation of the battle changed a lot - the mountain roads here were more wide, and six to eight soldiers could march in parallel. Therefore, the Norman hussars' ability to cooperate more highly can be demonstrated. In order to overwhelm the superiority of the Eastern Roman army in terms of individual force.

The Eastern Roman army did not know what was going on, and once again began to charge - only to see the Norman hussars fighting in unison, attacking, defending, and cooperating seamlessly, causing the Eastern Roman light infantry to suffer greatly. The Praetorian Guards, who were slaves in gladiatorial fighting, were very powerful on their own. However, the coordination of the squad was not as strong as that of the Norman hussars. In the gladiatorial arena, there are occasional performances of multiple gladiatorial slave fights. But the times were very small, and the slaves were not allowed to practice in tandem on weekdays - the slave owners were afraid that the gladiatorial slaves would unite and rebel......

So, although after joining the army there was an opportunity to practice. But the Praetorian Guard has been in army for less than a year. How can you outperform the hussars produced by the system?

The Eastern Roman army charged at this junction several times in a row. In the end, only the corpses were left behind. Blood seeped the ground, making it feel like mud when stepped on. The soldiers of both sides fought again and again on the corpses of the soldiers on both sides on this mud - but the chaotic charge of the Eastern Roman soldiers was unable to break through the Norman hussars' defensive lines.

"Javelinmen!"

So, several Eastern Roman military commanders discussed it, and planned to repeat the old tricks, so they withdrew the Eastern Roman light infantry. The Javeliners were replaced. It was intended to lure the Norman hussars into attacking, and then re-select the battlefield.

However, the Norman hussars suffered a loss and naturally refused to do anything stupid. The round shield is a tree, trying to dodge and dodge, but it just doesn't move forward. The Javelinmen quickly drained their ammunition, and the Norman hussars lost six dead and twelve wounded, and the gap was quickly filled by the soldiers behind, and the attack only replenished the Celtic javelinmen. Artoria hurriedly ordered the soldiers to collect javelins, and then asked the lightly armed archers to retreat, and replaced the two dozen Celtic lightly armed javelinmen to come forward, and distributed the javelins as reinforcement projection troops......

In this way, the Eastern Roman light infantry charged several times in a row, and the sharpness had already been smoothed. The next attacks are weaker and weaker each time. Even in the last time, before the hand-to-hand engagement, he was frightened back by more than a dozen javelins of the opponent...... Listening to the cheers and loud laughter of the Normans and Celts, the morale of the Eastern Roman light infantry was depressed. After some discussion, several Eastern Roman officers decided to retreat first, and then talk about it......

Seeing the Eastern Romans, Normans, and Celtic soldiers who were descending the mountain in gray, cheered loudly, and the sound spread far and wide, making the complexion of Princess Liliano at the foot of the mountain extremely ugly.

"There are 600 of you, 600 of you!!!It's more than three times as many as the other party!! but you let the family drive them down like sheep!

Her Royal Highness the princess saw the Eastern Roman soldiers who had slipped down the mountain, and then scolded the officers for a while......
