"Everyone, bite the strip of cloth in your mouth, close the horse's mouth with a horse cage, and don't make a sound."

Before leaving, in order not to alarm the enemy, the adjutant specially ordered the clamping of the horse to achieve a better effect.

"Little Anthony, you take a team of people, go over first, and build a pontoon bridge for me."

"No one can make a mess today, and whoever makes a mess will have someone's head, go!"

Under the cover of night, the group quietly went up the Struma River, and after walking for half the night, they came to a reed swing.

At this time, little Anthony had already set up a pontoon bridge and was on guard on the opposite side, seeing this, the adjutant did not hesitate to rush across the bridge first, and then, at his beckoning, the soldiers also came to the opposite bank one by one.

Things are going well, Laina did not expect the other party to come from the upstream, in the days after Sadio was killed, he has been preparing the pontoon bridge, most of the original ships have been burned, and now the only way to do this is to storm the other side, even if the head is replaced, Constantine will be replaced.

"Your Majesty, the Deputy Commander has come to report that he has crossed the Struma River and is ready to attack at any time."

The guards bowed down to report, Constantine washed his face with cold water, just changed his blood-stained robe, and looked at the time,

"Let the soldiers rest for a few hours and wait until four o'clock in the morning before calling me."

After saying that, Constantine went directly to the simple cot and prepared to rest.

"Oh, by the way, all be ready tonight, don't let them go to the woman."

Constantine added uncomfortably that the European army allows the existence of women, and it is also a very important part of the army, not only for fun, but also responsible for the soldiers' luggage, maintenance of weapons, etc., even if he is not used to this, Constantine can't get rid of this bad habit in a short time, after all, people are voluntary, which makes people unable to say anything.

However, there will be a big battle tomorrow, and Constantine will naturally not allow the soldiers to come at this time, thinking that it will be just such a day, and the soldiers can understand.

……

"Luis, there's a decisive battle tomorrow, are you nervous?"

Stephen and the others sat around the campfire, unable to sleep.

Louis shook his head, but didn't say whether he was nervous or not.

Seeing that Louis didn't speak, Stephen could only say to himself,

"It's going to be fine, what kind of person His Majesty Constantine is, following His Majesty, he will definitely not lose the battle, right?"

"A few days ago, Your Majesty executed a big nobleman, to be honest, I have lived for so long, and I have never seen the noble lord killed, it turns out that the noble lord is the same as us, and he will die if he is shot!"

Stephen's voice grew quieter and quieter.

Louis patted Stephen on the shoulder and comforted,

"Don't worry, His Majesty Constantine will not lose, it is impossible for this group of evil reactionaries to defeat us, let alone your Majesty."

Hearing Louis's comfort, the tension in Stephen's heart subsided slightly,

"You're right, if a person like Your Majesty still loses, then it's really God's partiality, may Our Lady bless His Majesty Constantine."

Stephen held the Virgin Mary pendant on his chest and muttered in his mouth.

"Alright, let's all go to sleep, there's a big battle tomorrow."

Louis yawned, extinguished the fire, and headed for the tent.

Time passes slowly, and no matter what their mood is, they can't escape what they should have come after all.

Constantine walked out of the camp, dressed in heavy armor and with a long sword tied to his waist, mounted a war horse that had been waiting for a long time, and came to a clearing in the camp, where the soldiers had been assembled, and the camp was quiet, even the bonfire was extinguished, for fear of being detected by the other party,

And because Constantine had strengthened the army's food for a period of time, the number of people suffering from night blindness in the army had been greatly reduced, at least night warfare would not be disturbed by night blindness.

"Choking~"

Constantine drew his long sword from his waist, and the precious gems on it reflected the noble status of its master.

"I won't say more, now, I issue the last order before the attack, everyone, discard all baggage, each person only carries seven days' dry rations, the rest is destroyed, as soon as the army crosses the river, burn the camp tents, burn the pontoon bridge, this battle, I advance and retreat with you."

In order to stimulate the soldiers' fighting spirit, Constantine also made a bloody effort and directly cut off all the retreats to show his determination to fight to the death, and the soldiers did not rush to oppose Constantine's words, but listened silently.

Seeing this, Constantine's voice became low,

"If we can survive after the war, I, Constantine, in the name of God and Our Lady, regard you as my Constantine's savior, and you will share the glory and disgrace with the empire, and live and die together."

After saying that, he took the lead and headed towards the pontoon bridge that had been erected, followed by the soldiers, and after everyone had left, the last group of overseers lit a fire, and just like that, the camp on Constantine's side began to burn.

And on the side of Laina,

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency..."

The guards couldn't care so much, so they directly pushed Laina vigorously, and soon shook Laina awake,

"The other party's tent is on fire!!"

Laina woke up, and one rolled over,

"Quick, get my armor on."

In the hurry, Laina came to the door in light armor, and sure enough, he saw a raging fire burning on the other side of the river, but he didn't know anything about the things on the other side of the river, so he didn't know what to do for a while.

Just when he didn't know what to do, the front army began to stir, and soldiers kept rushing to the front camp with water, and soldiers kept retreating.

"What's going on?"

Laina hurriedly urged Mina to inspect it, but there was no need for it, in the distance, Constantine's eagle banner could already be seen, and the vanguard cavalry had already rushed into the middle army.

"Quick!! Stop them!! ”

Laina's eyes were split, and Constantine's movements caught him off guard.

"Don't fight, set fire everywhere, empty your quiver."

Constantine shouted as he fought, when suddenly, an explosion briefly caught his attention.

I saw a soldier throw the gunpowder bag into the fire, and in an instant, the gunpowder exploded directly, emptying all the surrounding things, triggering a burst of panicked shouts.

Constantine didn't have time to think about it, and urged vigorously,

"Onward! Advance! Don't stop and kill them!! ”

At this time, you can't fight, after all, the number of people in Laina is the majority, almost more than twice that of Constantine, and now it is the front army that is in a panic, once the enemy reacts and falls into siege, it is difficult for the gods to save.

In this way, the soldiers followed their leader, and killed from the front army to the middle army, which was the last camp, and between the front army and the middle army was a narrow passage, which was also burned by Constantine.

When he was about to kill through, Constantine saw Laiena standing in front of the tent, and Laiena also saw Constantine on a horse, and the two sides looked at each other, and Laiena was so frightened that he shrank his head,

The main thing is that Constantine is too scary now, and the smoky black and blood on his face are mixed together, which is full of intimidation.

Constantine did not hesitate, as soon as he raised his hand, an arrow shot straight towards Laiena, and the guards beside Laina were quick and threw Laina to the ground, which saved Laina from being killed.

After missing the blow, Constantine snorted coldly, and realized that he couldn't stay any longer, so he gave up the idea of going directly to catch Laiena in his heart, and rushed out with his soldiers.

"Fence them up for me, you bunch of shit, leave them for me, don't let them run away."

Laina sat on the ground and shouted, and in a few moments a part of the soldiers was organized and surrounded Constantine,

However, Constantine had already fought his way out of the encirclement, he was at the front, and unfortunately, there was also a part of the infantry that did not follow and was surrounded behind.

"Your Majesty save me! Your Majesty save me! ”

The soldiers, thinking that they had been abandoned by Constantine, shouted in a panic,

Constantine gritted his teeth, pulled the reins, and turned around,

"Cavalry, follow me, the infantry continue to march, two centimeters away."

Two Roman miles are about three kilometers, almost far from the battlefield.

Constantine brandished his rifle and stabbed one man in the throat, and the enemy unwillingly fell down with his throat, and with the help of horsepower, he went all the way directly to the trapped soldiers.

"Kill me out!"

Immediately, leading the way, the soldiers of Laina did not dare to stop them anymore as if they had seen the gods, and could only watch Constantine leave.

Laina said with a gloomy face and gritted her teeth,

"First put out the fire, then gather the troops, and attack the whole army, I must skin Constantine and cramp, so that I can vent the anger in my heart."

The crowd was silent, and Mina glanced to the side, and soon a group of soldiers gathered and began to put out the fire.

And the adjutant office of the ambush was also confused by the chaotic scene for a while.

"My lord, our camp is on fire!"

The scout's face was anxious, and the adjutant was shocked, and glanced at the camp, and sure enough, the flames had already reached the sky.

"What should I do, my lord, is there something wrong with Your Majesty?"

The officer who accompanied the adjutant was also a little panicked, and the adjutant glared at them fiercely,

"Shut up, this is the code that Your Majesty told me, I know it in my heart."

In fact, Constantine just said that he would set fire, who knew that Constantine would set fire to his camp, but the adjutant knew that it must have been Constantine's idea, not because of anything else, because of his trust in Constantine.

"Go and explore the rebel camp again, don't make a fuss and scream, you know?"

The current situation is not much worse than what Constantine has agreed upon, and the adjutant is ready to dispatch.
