The two special skills directly crush the morale of the opponent. Then the cavalry assaulted. Such tactics are basically the same as fouls. The Norman Janissary Knights sliced through each other's arrays effortlessly, as if knives were cutting through butter. Pierce, smash, trample, crush each other...... If the opponent's array is intact, then perhaps, these soldiers in heavy armor and armed with spears can bring some damage to the Praetorian Cavalry due to inertia and their sharp spearheads.

But what is the most important thing in the confrontation between infantry and cavalry? The first is morale, and the second is formation. And the opponent's morale collapsed, which in turn led to confusion in the formation. In this way, of course, there was no threat to the Normans at all. Under Egil's leadership, the Praetorian Guards easily tore through the opposing defenses. Immediately after that, a larger number of Praetorian infantry began to follow. Completely tear apart the opponent's formation. The pikemen on both flanks also began to retreat, narrowing their formation. In this way, the formation of the Praetorian Guard was more compact, and the defense power was much increased.

"Stay at the door, wait until the baggage is almost over, and then you can go!" Seeing that the last blockade of the other party was also over, Egil immediately shouted at Artoria, and then did not care much, and immediately turned around with his knightly guards, and turned towards the interior of the fortress.

That's it, because of Egil's efforts. The remnants of the Norman Empire finally broke through the encirclement. Leaving was originally to protect his life, but now it has become a fortress that besieges his cage.

After the Praetorian Guard captured the city gates, they left the most defensive group of pikemen, as well as the matching musketeers, and infantry there. The cavalry troops continued to advance and went out of the city to search. The rest of the infantry, the longbowmen, began to fight the Mongol troops on both sides of the gates and above the walls to strengthen and consolidate the Empire's control over the outer gates. The infantry of both sides was close to each other. The knife and axe waved, the flesh and blood flew sideways, and the end was extremely bloody.

So, after the emperor took control of the city gate, the main army, the baggage troops, the engineering troops, and the medical soldiers began to continue to advance.

"Then, the other side's pursuing force should gradually increase. Egil thought. As he galloped back to the troops behind the palace, an unknown number of Mongol troops had already rushed over, just as he thought. These people are poorly equipped. It doesn't look like it's the elite of the Mongol army. But then again. Egil's royal forces are also not elite. Nearly 30,000 soldiers, all of them temporary conscripts. Combat effectiveness is limited.

"Shield-spearmen, sword-and-shieldmen in formation!Cover the bows and crossbows!Axes and broadswords rest as reserves!Let's fight and retreat, don't fall in love!" Egil ordered, assigning tasks to the soldiers. Under his command, 20,000 temple troops fought and retreated. Following behind the main force, they slowly retreated towards the gate of the outer city on the west side.

The fortress was full of flames and corpses. After some fighting, the remnants of the 80,000 Norman soldiers have lost more than 20%. The Mongols lost even more, almost 40,000 men. However, the two sides still fought desperately. There is no intention of backing down at all.

The Norman army was trapped like a beast, so they were naturally willing to fight hard, and the Mongols were also affected by the skills of the Mongolian military gods. And Egil's Hades Scream skill can only be cast twice in a short period of time. It has already been used once when it broke through before, and there is only one chance left for this moment, so it is natural to wait until the critical moment to use it. Therefore, the two sides are at a stalemate. There is no way to tell the winner in a short period of time.

"Won...... Probably. "After repelling several attacks from the other side in a row. Egil thought. At this moment, the sun is setting in the west, and it is about to get dark. The vast majority of their main forces have withdrawn from the city. It only takes another day and night to reach the second line of defense. ...,

"On top of that, it's a two-hour ride on a fast horse to reach the second line of defense. They were asked to prepare the army to receive them. It's a little easier. With a thought, Egil gave the order to go out. I couldn't find the ink and ink at this moment. The situation is also urgent. Egil cut his fingertips, replaced the ink with blood, and put the heraldic ring on the paper as a token. Told the Norman spies the order. After that, the Norman spies released the carrier pigeons. The dove fluttered over the battlefield for a while, and flew away.

"If it's a carrier pigeon, it can be faster. Egil thought, "If you don't get shot." "I thought of this possibility. Egil immediately sent another order to the 3rd Hussar Regiment, which was to follow the main force, and send a group of cavalry as messengers. And at this moment, the spies were no longer enough to bring paper. Egir plucked a few leaves from the little trees by the roadside, stamped them with a coat of arms, and gave them to the messengers.

And so, after a while, when everyone felt that everything was safe, Egil patted his head and said, "Ahhhh

Hearing what Egil said, the soldiers around him also reacted, and at the same time, they became even more angry at the Muscovites who betrayed them. Be it Normans, Austrians or Hungarians. At this moment, they all hated the same enemy, and scolded those Muscovites.

Until all the messengers were gone. Egil thought again, there was nothing more to do. That's the end of it. And by this moment, the sky was already dark. The main forces of the Normans had completely left the fortress grounds. Egil asked them to rest for a while, and then continued on their journey overnight. Egil himself returned to the temple army. Begin to prepare for battle with the pursuing enemy.

Of course, in fact, although Egil felt that the forward force was no longer dangerous, it was not like that at all. The Norman Guard's Praetorian Guard was in a bitter battle again. They, along with the average Norman troops, numbering around 20,000, were overtaken by the Mongol cavalry who came in pursuit. The elite Mongol heavy cavalry, and the elite of the elite, the heavy cavalry of the Cowardly Xue Army and the Proton Army, galloped around the array of Norman troops. blocked the way.

"Break through forcibly! As long as they are routed, there will be no more danger ahead!" After half a day of fierce fighting, the Norman army was very tired. But after hearing such a shout from Artoria, the soldiers rekindled their fighting spirit.

"Just hold on a little longer! There is a second line of defense ahead, and the messenger has also been sent. Soon, reinforcements came to meet us! Just hold on a little longer!" and General Asami encouraged the army in this way. And admonished Artoria:

"Queen! The soldiers are tired. And not enough physical strength. And the other side is a heavy cavalry unit. Our cavalry was seriously underwhelmed. and did not have the ability to crush them. I feel like we should form a defensive array. The baggage trucks are also used to form a car array. Block the opponent's attacks. Waiting for our reinforcements. It's more appropriate that way. ”

Hearing General Basumi's suggestion, Artoria was dumbfounded. Very dissatisfied looked at this woman with big breasts. It brought a lot of pressure to General Asami. However, General Asami still insisted on it, not to be outdone, looking at Empress Artoria.

"It doesn't just look like it's bigger breasts. The brain is also good. Artoria muttered quietly, then raised her voice, "That makes sense." Okay -- let's move on the defensive for now. Divide the army into two armies, one for defense and one for rest. Take turns guarding and be alert to enemy attacks!"...,

At this moment, the Norman troops stationed in the second line of defense had already discovered the inappropriateness of the forward line of defense. Fifty kilometers is not long, but short is not short. The fire that lasted all night was so conspicuous that it naturally would not be invisible. The Central Army had Norman conscripts stationed in this line of defense, as well as local garrisons. In charge were General Ziten, the commander of the Second Hussar Regiment of the Norman Empire, and generals sent by two Norman vassals, Brandenburg and Hesse.

Later, after receiving the coat of arms of the Norman emperor's blood seal, carrier pigeons and messengers of heralds. The old general Qi Teng was in a hurry. I just want to send the whole army out to rescue my own emperor. Or did the generals of the two vassal states persuade that if the whole army was dispatched, who would defend the defensive line? Then the old general Qi Teng said: Only the enemy is in front, and the ally Moscow is behind. Where will there be something?

While they were arguing, the second group of Norman envoys came. Tell the story of the Muscovites that Egil said. The three generals gasped.

"That's how it is...... It's so dangerous!" General Qi Teng broke out in a cold sweat as soon as he remembered what he had just said. Then he immediately made a decision and said to the other two allied generals: "I have made up my mind! The two generals, please stay here and keep watch. Also, kill all the Muscovites near the fortress to prevent them from rebelling!"

Extraordinary moments, extraordinary means. Or rather, worthy of Egil's subordinate. When the old general gave the order, he was full of murderous spirit. So that the two generals of the allied countries couldn't help but swallow their saliva. After that, I hurriedly agreed.

"Also, send an emissary to the rear to spread the news that the Emperor has been betrayed by the Muscovites and thus defeated!
