In such a situation, the Mongols, in order to hide their embarrassment, even reorganized several unsuccessful siege plans. Even, at the suggestion of Wokotai, the cowardly Xue army and the proton army, which had already suffered heavy losses, were dispatched. Take turns attacking.

In addition to this, in addition to the return cannons that the Mongols had always had, as well as the Oriental and Persian style siege machines, the Mongols also used the three twelve-pounder cannons they had obtained from the first line of defense of the Norman Empire during siege warfare - although the Mongols were poor in handling artillery, the bombardment was not accurate enough, and the ammunition they received was also limited, and they could not give the Norman fortress damage that could be reflagged to the maximum extent possible, and the design of the fortress was based on the bastion design to reflect the damage of the cannonballs to the maximum However, in front of the fortress, those small wooden forts and fortresses were more or less damaged.

This made Egil feel very angry: "Didn't I say that?!The most important thing for all forts to do before they fall is to blow up the artillery!What the hell is going on?!Why do the other sides still have artillery coming out?!"

The emperor's roar made the three armies frightened, but it was to no avail. The Mongols acquired the artillery of the Norman Empire, and with the current technological prowess of the Mongols, it is unlikely that they would have copied or even forged a more powerful artillery yet. However, it is very possible to cast a batch of guns of not good quality according to the gourd.

And when a new technology flows out of one country, there is no guarantee that it will not flow out of another. It's like papermaking and gunpowder or something. It was a little sad for Egil to find that his equipment, which was originally used as a trump card, was likely to become a bad weapon in the next few decades - although because of the level of technology, artillery was still a weapon with a high threshold, and not everyone could have it. But compared to the situation of the Norman Empire, it is too far behind.

"Concentrate your fire!" and blast all the artillery that falls into the hands of the enemy!!

The more the Norman Emperor thought about it, the more angry he became, and then he roared and ordered the artillery in the fortress to fire, and to blow all those who had stolen his technology to smithereens—thirty twenty-four-pounder infantry guns in all. It was evenly arranged on the batteries of the two forts of the second line of defense. This treasure is much stronger than a twelve-pounder cannon. In addition to this, there were twenty smaller twelve-pounder cannons. The Normans deployed the same number of traditional heavy machinery, catapults, and crossbows as the first line of defense. But the number of cutting-edge artillery pieces is not the same.

Hearing Egil's order, fifty guns turned together and fired at the Mongol guns, only to hear a moment of shaking. The loud roar almost punctured a person's eardrum. Looking at the other side's position, there was a burst of gunsmoke, and after the smoke was over, there were stumps and broken arms all over the ground, and several artillery pieces were also scrap metal.

Seeing such a scene. The morale of the Mongol generals dropped suddenly, and after several rounds of Norman catapults, city crossbows and artillery bombardment, they suffered heavy losses, and they refused to go forward desperately, and the Mongol battalion did not seem to be enterprising. The Norman fortress burst into cheers.

This made Egil very puzzled - the tactics of the other side. It seems to be much rougher than before. There was neither enough covering fire, nor deadly cannon fodder to clear barricades, fill traps and trenches. The legions were also in no particular order, rushing forward like a rabble. It really doesn't look like a god of war would do it.

"Is it possible, that Genghis Khan is actually ......"

The Norman Emperor was so thoughtful that he quickly came up with such an answer. I was thrilled to be in my heart - that Genghis Khan was now in his sixties. Old age and weakness, the number of qi is exhausted. How could he survive a lead bullet? It must be that his generals were afraid of shaking the morale of the army, so they sent people to dress up. I was even more afraid that I would take advantage of the situation to send troops, so I dispatched troops to attack every day. But looking at the command art of these idiots, it's just self-defeating.........

Having said that, what is the real situation, Egil feels that he still needs to try hard to really find out whether Genghis Khan is dead or alive. to act.

So the Norman Empire secretly sent spies into the Mongol military camp, on the one hand to spy on Genghis Khan's life and death, and on the other hand to spread rumors that the real Genghis Khan had died of his wounds. And now a group of Mongolian generals are plotting against each other, so they let people disguise themselves as Genghis Khan. The Mongol army, which was so disrupted, was terrified.

And on the bright side. Egir sent an envoy to the Mongol army asking for an appointment with Genghis Khan. Genghis Khan to be lured out, and then identified.

In this way, the Normans made a storm until April. Rumors abound about the Mongol army. The Mongol generals had no choice but to invite Genghis Khan's younger brother Ghassal to dress up as Genghis Khan and parade through the army to calm the army. And the Norman emperor in the distance also looked at the man with a telescope in his hand on the tower of the fortress.

That man was eighty or ninety percent similar to Genghis Khan, and his body and clothes were exactly the same. In addition, he pretended to hurt an arm, his face was ugly, and he was unable to move, so he didn't let people understand. The vast majority of people will be deceived by him. And in the Mongolian army, the high-ranking generals who knew that he was pretending would naturally not poke him. Other people who vaguely guessed the truth did not dare to say more. More than a dozen miles away, Egil could clearly hear the cheers of the Mongol military camp. Morale was boosted by the parade of the "Great Khan of the Mongols".

“...... That's not Genghis Khan. ”

The Mongols' schemes could be concealed from others, but not from Egil. Although he had only seen him once in the midst of the chaos, the majesty and momentum of the Mongol Great Khan made Egil unforgettable for life. Now this man has only his form, not his marrow. Naturally, Egil could see it at a glance.

"Since then, I have one less enemy. The Norman Emperor sighed a few times. Then the decision was made! Prepare the army. Gather all the best Norman generals and launch a counterattack against the Mongols! Let them be greatly damaged from now on, and they can no longer be in trouble!!

After making this decision, Egil wrote a letter asking the Norman regular army and the elite conscripts in the rear lines to come. Gather strength and prepare to fight back. And it's in these few days. Genghis Khan remained unconscious. The Mongol generals finally lost their patience. It was decided to withdraw the troops.

The Mongols and the Normans fought continuously for several years, losing countless soldiers and losing countless generals, but in the end they gained very little, and the life and death of the Mongol Khan Temujin was unknown. It was an extremely significant failure. On his deathbed, Genghis Khan divided his vast khanate into four and divided it among his four sons, without specifying the heirs. Such actions also led to the ambition of several Mongol princes. I began to think about my future.

April 2, 1010. The third day of the retreat of the Mongols. The elite army under the command of the Norman Emperor has been assembled, from the Centaur Independence Legion, to the new army, to the Hussar Legion. A total of 140,000 elite troops, all of which were the most elite troops of the Norman Empire.

Altoria's 30,000 Celtic troops were all gathered. Celtic Royal Knights, Celtic Knights, Longbowmen, Lightning hoplites. Celtic Heavy Shieldspearman...... These elite troops were all gathered.

And the elite selected from the millions of Norman conscripts is not inferior to the regular army of ordinary countries. Viking warriors from Northern Europe, Frankish heavy cavalry from Flanders, hoppy hookers and longbowmen from England, light cavalry and forest axes from Eastern Europe. Together, there are close to 150,000 of these elites. ...,

In addition to this, the strongest troops they had were also volunteered from Burgundy, Hungary, Austria, Hesse, Brandenburg and other countries. The Knights of the Golden Fleece of Burgundy, the Hungarian Rangers, the Duchy of Austria, the Janissaries of Hesse, the Knights of the Black Dragon of Brandenburg, and many more

In this way, the Norman Empire gathered his most elite army of 350,000 in nearly a week. This is the Norman Empire -- no, it should be said, this is the best army that gathered all of Europa! Under the leadership of the Norman Emperor, the armies of all Europe were gathered and ready to fight the Mongols!

April 4, 1010. When the Mongols withdrew from the absolute defensive circle of Moscow and advanced towards the Mongolian plateau, the forward units of the Europa army caught up with their rearguard. In a wonderful, almost show-like large-scale horse battle, the Europa vanguard army, with Norman hussars as the main body, completely broke the Mongols' rear-end troops, forcing the Mongols to change their tactics and stop. Prepare for a battle to the death with the Normans, with all of Europa.

"Genghis Khan is dead! there is nothing left in this world that can stop me!!"

At that time, despite the ravages of the Black Death and the great embarrassment, Egil still felt that this was the most glorious moment of his life! The death of Genghis Khan made him a well-deserved ruler in the world! There is no one in this world who can lead the nomads of the entire steppe like Genghis Khan and set off a war like a natural disaster!!

"The world belongs to me, to Egil Skadergrímsson!!" Seeing the flustered and nervous Mongols in the distance, Egil was so heroic that he couldn't help but shout loudly!
