Sharp, precise, and exceptionally strong. The wave of knights' attacks was as sharp as scalpels, and with each assault, the Norman knights were able to kill a layer of enemy soldiers from the opposing array. Looking at it from a distance, the formation of Lithuanians with less than 7,000 people was like a cabbage, peeled off layer by layer. It disappeared without a trace.

The knights' attacks seemed endless. Because the array of band charges is shrinking. As a result, the time interval between charges is also shortened. The Lithuanian people watched as a group of heavy cavalry roared in, their spears piercing their robes and their horses trampling their corpses. Then he walked away. Before he could recover his senses, he saw another group of Norman knights rushing towards him. So many cycles, so many repetitions, such dense charges. You stupidly don't give them time and space to think, and you directly beat them into a daze, and you have no power to fight back at all.

The Norman knights were very particular about their attacks. When they had fought against the Lithuanian light cavalry, they used sabers or swords to form a dense array, and then passed by the Lithuanian light cavalry to slash and slash each other. And because they were armed with heavy armor, and the Lithuanians were not equipped with armor-piercing weapons such as maces, armor-piercing hammers, maces, and battle axes, the Norman knights were able to concentrate on the attack instead of defense.

And that's exactly what happened. The short spears of the Lithuanian infantry were dodged by the knights - or not. Because the short spears of the Lithuanians were shorter than the heavy cavalry spears. And this is the only weapon that the Lithuanians can use to attack effectively against the Norman knights - if the Norman knights can't dodge, or if the Lithuanian spearmen are cunning enough, then with the impact of the horses. The short spear could easily penetrate the armor of the Norman knight - and even if it didn't, the impact would be enough to shatter the knight's internal organs.

In fact, however, not many Norman knights died in battle - very few Lithuanian infantrymen had the courage to do so - and in fact it was a rare courage to be able to hold their positions during the roaring charge of the Norman knights - after all, the vast majority of them were only peasant soldiers who were not paid and were temporarily conscripted.

The samurai, or knights, also had a small number of options to fight on foot. But the weapons they are equipped with are long swords, scimitars + shields. Such a sword and shield soldier configuration. As a result, it is not able to inflict effective damage on Norman knights.

The situation was different when the Norman knights fought against the Lithuanian nomadic light cavalry, or a small number of so-called "knights" armed only with chain mail, chain mail, light scale armor, and no horse armor at all. The Norman knights charged forward in a dense array, fighting a single cavalry with multiple knights as the two sides fought. First of all, an advantage in numbers was achieved. The Norman knights on the front used heavy cavalry guns. The knights on both wings continued forward, penetrating into the gaps of the enemy's cavalry, then discarding their spears and slashing with their half-swords or sabers.

In this way, under the attack from three sides, the average Lithuanian cavalry will soon be overwhelmed. Pierced by a rifle, cut off by a saber, and stabbed in the heart with a half-sword...... And so on and so forth. And those knights with higher martial skills only slightly resisted two moves. Then he shouted, "I don't have any knightly demeanor!

Of course, it would be wrong to say that the Norman knights did not suffer any casualties. Except for a very small number of knights who had not been trained seriously before, or who were simply unlucky knights who fell from their horses and were trampled to death by their own people. There were really a small number of single-digit knights who were killed by the Lithuanians.

After Egil gave the order for a general attack, there was no other order. He just looked around with a telescope in his hand - and then he saw something like this:

As a wave of Norman knights rushed towards him, a Lithuanian warrior in heavy chain mail roared, did not advance but retreated, and with a long sword in his hand, along with his arm, rushed towards the Norman knight like a spear. The Lithuanian's arm was very long, a meter long, and with a long sword of one or two meters, it was already more than half the length of a horse's body -- and as he ran, he deftly dodged the deadly lance of the Norman knight, and the shape of his hand remained unchanged, and the impact did not diminish! The knight screamed in pain. Then he fell from his horse, half of his body was hit by the knight next to him, and a large rib in his chest was broken. After that, his head was trampled into a rotten watermelon by the horse's hooves. One foot was still hanging on the stirrups, dragging the tattered body and running away. ,

At the same time, the warrior of the Lithuanian was also hit by a galloping war horse. The arms twisted and deformed, making a tooth-chilling "crunching" sound, apparently broken. Immediately afterwards, the warrior who had been knocked down was trampled by the war horse again, and a large hole was stepped out of his stomach, and section by section of his intestines flowed out. The man struggled to move, perhaps trying to pull his intestines back into his stomach. However, his hands had been severed and he could not move at all. He shook his body a few times in vain, and then stopped moving......

Fight like Kilkenny cats. This was the best Lithuanian could have achieved on the battlefield under Egil's gaze. However, there are only a few who dare to fight with Norman knights like this. The vast majority of Lithuanians are only in a daze, stupid, stunned, and dizzy when encountering Norman knights...... Hang up in the end.

In this way, the second round of attacks of the Norman army was carried out in a heavy cavalry sequence composed of Norman knights, Norman heavy cavalry and Norman royal knights, attacking with a new wave charge tactic. The Lithuanians were completely crushed. Even before the Norman heavy cavalry could begin the second charge - no, it should be said that before they could finish the first charge, the Lithuanians completely collapsed.

In total, at least five thousand Lithuanian soldiers were killed or seriously wounded. The remaining less than 2,000 Lithuanian soldiers cried out for escape, and were hunted down by melee hussars and light archers. Others lie down and smear blood on their faces with the intention of pretending to be dead. Most of these guys were tortured and killed by the Norman infantry and assault infantry who were dissatisfied with the fact that they had not caught the enemy. Others fell to their knees and begged for mercy, crying and shouting in Norman "Don't kill me, I surrender" that I didn't know where I learned. Some of them were hacked to death for inaccurate pronunciation. Other captives await five to thirty years of heavy labor - depending on how long they can live the rest of their lives.

And others, the bravest, the strongest, the most stubborn group of Lithuanians, who are still resisting - taking up a small high ground under the command of the Grand Duke of Lithuania, Vytautas, making walls out of shields, and struggling to hold on with their will and Vytautas's fairly good command skills.

"Are you going to see him?"

After hearing about such a thing, Egil was stunned for a moment, and then heard Aurora's voice like this.

"Nope. Egil shook his head.

"Why?"

"Because it doesn't make sense. ”

"Oh...... But looking at you, it seems like something is missing. ”

"I just think it's going to be more than two hours. Egil said indifferently.

"Two hours...... Did you have an appointment with the two girls?" Aurora observed again. As mentioned before, all of Egil's mental activity is perceived by her. So Aurora understood that what Egil said was true. He really didn't feel anything about it. The so-called last elegy of the king, the desperate fight of the warriors, something like this heroic and tragic can not arouse even the slightest resonance of Egil.

"What a hard-hearted, heartless, cold-blooded animal. Aurora commented. After that, there was no sound. Egil felt that it must be that she didn't get the results she wanted, so she sulked. Even Egil could imagine that she must have said this with a look of disdain, rolling her eyes, shaking with a quill in her hand, and her legs crossed. Wearing white stockings, your legs are dangling, and if you look closely, you can see white lace panties......

"Hey, are you thinking of something rude?" Aurora's voice rang out again.

"Absolutely not. Egil opened his eyes and said nonsense.

So, just like that, the war ended. Although Vytautas was very unwilling. But his unwillingness only added eleven minutes and twenty-seven seconds to his scene. The final outcome is that he will die with an arrow piercing his heart. is also worthy of his identity as a hero in troubled times.

Thus the first battle of the Norman conquest of Eastern Europe came to an extremely beautiful end - and this beauty was relative. It was beautiful for the Norman Empire, but it was extremely ugly for Lithuania.

At this point, the Norman Empire managed to gain control over the entire region of Lithuania, together with the northern part of Belarus for a generation. And Minsk, the regional capital of Belarus, is within easy reach. The Norman Empire is mighty and shocks the European continent!

At the same time, while Egil was attacking the city in Lithuania, another large army in Poland suffered some small accidents, which made Empress Artoria ......very troubled. ）
