Not to mention how Egil ravaged the Greeks in Constantinople. Let's talk about the Kazan region. The crumbling Kazan colony under the onslaught of the Mongol iron cavalry swarming from east of the Urals.

Speaking of which, the Kazan region has a lot of troops. At that time, several garrison corps were combined to form the Wehrmacht, and these were all regular elite professional troops. About 30,000 in total. And General Winde's direct troops also numbered more than 20,000 people. Among the immigrants in the colony are nearly 10,000 militiamen. Among them, young and middle-aged people have received some degree of armed training. When necessary, you will be able to go into battle. Their number exceeds thirty thousand. In addition, the centaurs who settled in the Kazan region were able to draw 3,000 young men to join the battle. This is the strongest army under General Winder.

Calculate it in this way, among the newly opened farmsteads, pastures and cities in the lower Volga. In total, the Normans were able to pull up an army of 100,000.

However, the number of Mongols was half a million.

When Kublai Khan made the decision to surpass the exploits of his grandfather Temujin, who had never been done before. He mobilized the whole of Mongolia - no, it should be said, the entire Mongol Yuan Empire. A total of 100,000 of the most elite Mongol troops, 300,000 Han Chinese troops, and about 100,000 Central Asian Semu and Vultures were armed. Across the Ural Mountains, into the Kazan region.

Kublai Khan was ready to follow the path taken by Genghis Khan on his western expedition. Despite the strong fortress of Moscow's absolute defensive circle, the new Great Khan, or the new emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, had no bottom in his heart.

However, the Mongols did not expect that the resistance of the Normans would begin as soon as they crossed the Ural Mountains.

Those who rode the main forces of the Normans eliminated the third or fourth horses. Or the Eastern European equestrian militia with no specific distinction between mixed race horses. Those who surrendered to the imperial dynasty of Egil, the Kipchaks and Cumans, the nomadic cavalry of these steppe peoples. and coming and going like the wind, riding the Norman No. 5 warhorse. The Norman hussars outnumbered the Mongol archers...... These cavalrymen were in a squad of thirty or fifty men. The archery of the Sabbatians (or Parthian tactics as it is called) makes the trickling trickle. After a round of bows and arrows, he ran away. If anyone dared to chase after them, they would dare to lead their pursuers towards the encirclement. In this way, in the area of Kazan, the Norman army used such tactics to fight the Mongols - which made the Mongols feel a little laughable. Because before that, it was the Mongols who had been using this tactic to fight the enemy.

In addition to that, there are those centaurs who are strong in battle. They were the most terrifying enemies of the Mongols. Almost every one of these centaurs has family members and friends who have been killed by the Mongols, and it can be said that they have a blood feud with the Mongols. Every time they fought against the Mongols, these centaurs went crazy and fought for the first place. Let the Norman army be both happy and sad. Joy is naturally the virtue of these centaurs who do not die. And the worry is that they are afraid that their fanaticism will make a mistake.

This went on for about a month. From August to September, General Winder sent out all the more than 15,000 light cavalry under his command. Successfully held off the Mongol army for a month.

However, after this, the Mongol army came. Kublai Khan used more violent and swift tactics. He sent his cavalry troops to gallop wildly, in a roundabout way. Detoured to the rear of the Norman cavalry encirclement. That's it. When a group of harassed troops rushed into the encirclement with the Mongols they had been harassed and pursued, they would soon find that it was they who were surrounded. The enemy who is surrounded by them and the enemy who surrounds them should be together inside and out. Defeated the Norman light cavalry.

After tasting such failures several times in a row. General Winder was furious. He personally led a light cavalry force of 3,000 men to fight the Mongols. The cavalry gathered and dispersed as they chased the Mongols in the vast steppes of Rus'. Crazy competition for speed, maneuver and endurance. And the end result was that General Winder had no choice but to lose. Because in a scuffle, his centaur troops did not obey orders, causing the legion to break through. In the end, they had to retreat.

However, General Winde was still defeated in glory. Although the 3,000 cavalry under his command only had more than 1,000 left in the end. but killed nearly 5,000 Mongolian iron horsemen. Even Kublai Khan's tent was once visible.

After the defeat of this campaign, General Winder could no longer stop the advance of the Mongol army. Of course, if you lead your infantry out of the city to fight, you can indeed fight for a while. However, General Wende was not so stupid and left the fortified city unfortified. But they had to use infantry and Mongols to fight field battles in the plains.

The Kazan colony, which was initially set up, was a fortified fortress. Therefore, after the immigrants, General Winder focused on the defense of the city. After more than half a year of operation, although it is not possible to achieve the horror of Moscow's absolute defense circle. It is not as good as the big cities of Krakow or Constantinople, or the military fortresses of Oslo and Smolensk. But a standard large castle with a double-layered octagonal bastion defense is still strong. Plus nearly 100,000 Norman defenders, as well as sufficient armaments and food reserves. It was also very difficult for the Mongols to break through.

Kublai Khan also thought about leaving part of his forces to besiege the fortress, and the main force continued to advance. However, this idea was soon rejected by him.

In the city of Kazan, the Norman garrison was nearly 100,000. Such a big nail is nailed in its own back road. Kublai Khan would not have been relieved in any case. If you really carry out this plan, you can't say that you have just left on the front foot. The hind foot, General Wind, fought out of the city and cut off his back path. What's more, the Great Khan had great ambitions to avenge his grandfather, crush the Norman Empire, and kill the Norman Emperor. Now the Norman emperor has not seen it, and it is still hundreds of kilometers away from the absolute defense circle of Moscow...... As a result, he was here, in this small city, and a Norman general couldn't take it. So where does his ambition begin? It's just a joke.

Thinking like this, Kublai Khan and General Wende got into a fight. Night after night, he kept urging the Han infantry under his command to attack the city. A large number of return guns, with archers to assist the attack. The cloud ladder well is an underground earth mountain that changes the method of attacking. He also promised General Wende that if he was willing to belong to the Great Yuan Emperor, he would canonize him as Rus Khan. Take charge of all things Russ Meadows.

However, all these tricks were cracked by General Winder one by one. As for the letter of persuasion, General Wende didn't even read it. It was directly torn to pieces, and he chopped the messenger who persuaded him into eighteen pieces and fed it to the dogs.

So, the camera pans back to Constantinople.

Egir laughed and carried Lilianu back to his tent. The scene was later depicted by the painter according to the description. Indicate the title "Conquest". It was auctioned for 125.1 billion and 50 million dollars. Of course, at that time, the global economy collapsed once, and the dollar had depreciated like waste paper...... After thoroughly training half the inhabitants of Constantinople, the emperor was in a very good mood. Plus I haven't seen Lilianu for a long time. So quite impatient. And Lilianu is also a long-time absentee, although at first she said that she didn't want to. But soon wrapped his thighs around Egil's waist. The two sides played from two o'clock in the afternoon until twelve o'clock in the afternoon the next day. Egil seemed to have so much energy that Lilianu could barely bear.

"If you want to make a comeback, try to have a baby. After that, you can try to deal with me the way you did against your father. In that case, your child will be the only heir to my empire. After I died, the whole empire was his. How's that a good deal, right?" said Egil, who was desperately trying to rain on Lilianu. While saying such neurotic words. Instigating his wife to try to get pregnant, the mother is more precious than the child, the palace coup or something.

"Of course, if you let me know that you dare to betray me and deceive me. I'm going to train you to be a female dog!"

Seeing Lilianu's eyes roll, Egil snorted lightly, and as he sped up his movements, he said something that would make Lilianu shiver.

That's it. Lilianu, as "Emperor of All the Romans", joined Egil's queen. In the palace. It became an ornament that adorned Egil's court, a caged bird. The war between the Norman Empire and the Eastern Roman Empire came to an end. As if previously envisaged, the newly conquered lands were divided into three new provinces by Egil, with the Hungarian province in Budapest as its capital. The capital is in the Balkan province of Sofia, and the Greek province has its capital in Corinth.

As for the capital of the Eastern Roman Empire, Tsargrad, the thousand-year-old imperial capital of Constantinople. was marginalized by Egil.

The emperor moved a large number of inhabitants out of Constantinople and demolished its walls. Only part of the residential area of the Golden Horn pier has been preserved. Use it simply as a harbor city. This further undermined the pride of the Greeks.

After all this, the emperor erected a ten-meter-high monument carved out of granite on the ruins of Constantinople. Skilled craftsmen were ordered to carve on it a relief of the Norman army storming Constantinople. Then in Norman and Latin, it was written: Norman Emperor Egil. Skadragrímsson destroyed the Eastern Roman Empire here. The army then turned back to Krakow......
