The biggest news at the beginning of 1002 AD was not the seemingly endless civil war between the Holy Roman Empire. It was not the Eastern Roman Empire once again forcing the Pope to merge the two major sects of the East and West. It was not the legendary hero Sid, who rose in Iberia, who led the coalition of five Iberian countries to defeat the Iberian army of the Eastern Roman Iberian Legion.

Instead, in Eastern Europe, an unprecedented war is about to begin. If the warring sides finally mobilize, then this battle will be the largest battle in recent years.

However, Egil obviously did not want to wait until the other party mobilized - at this moment, the United Kingdom army gathered in the Greater Poland region had reached more than 60,000, and was increasing. Egil no longer wanted to wait any longer. Every day, the opponent's strength would increase part of it. Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, Egil decisively made such arrangements. Baron Alpha was sent as the temporary sergeant commander of the Livornia region, and led the 5,000 Livornian garrison troops, as well as 500 cavalry troops to dispatch to inspect and sweep the southern part of Livornia currently controlled by Poland, and block Latvians and Estonians from moving south to join the Poles.

Artoria was ordered to lead the Celtics in its headquarters and 5,000 recruiting troops, including 500 cavalry, to sweep the entire northern Poland region and strangle all the troops that were preparing to join the United Kingdom. Egil personally led 45,000 main troops to head south and attack Warsaw, the capital of Poland in Greater Poland, to launch a decisive battle with the main forces of the United Kingdom.

Egil cut off reinforcements from the north of the opponent, and suddenly cut off most of the sources of troops that the United Kingdom could mobilize. In this way, the gap between the main forces between the two sides further narrowed. Egil's headquarters, which concentrated a large number of elite troops, could even suppress the Vadislaw's end. And restricted the strong troops along the Baltic Sea coast to move south, and further reduced the opponent's combat effectiveness. The two concentrated troops were naturally not a problem to strangle the Poles who fought each other. In this way, the problem was very simple.

If possible, Egil hopes to completely dismember the United Kingdom, a huge monster spanning the two seas, in this battle, make Lithuania completely independent, and split the two grassland countries Ukraine and Belarus, so that the Tatars and the Ross can be completely divided. Then establish Romania in the south. This will basically be the same.

As long as Poland can be weakened to this level, the entire Eastern Europe will definitely fall into a quiet and peaceful civil war, and human heads will be hit by dog ​​heads. After that, Egil can safely manage the Baltic Circle. Until the day when he is full, Eastern Europe will basically be beaten to pieces. Then, you don’t have to worry about indigestion if you swallow it in one bite.

In this way, Egil was full of fighting spirit and decided to establish his hegemony in the Baltic Sea, his dominant position in Eastern Europe, and his future untimely hegemony with an undisputed victory.

Time, February 18, 1002 AD. Location, in the middle of the Greater Polish region of Poland, the United Kingdom of Lithuania, only 150 kilometers away from the old Polish city of Warsaw. In the five days before this, Wadislaw II saw that no army from the north called for corresponding calls for five consecutive days, and immediately knew that something was wrong. So he left Warsaw without hesitation to take the initiative, and during this period he would once again have a small number of noble armed forces, which has expanded the army under Wadislaw II to more than 65,000.

In this way, a great battle began. This battle was slightly different from the previous few times Egil experienced. The beginning was at midnight. Egil had a sudden idea and ordered the elite knight troops to start the joint camp...

It was already afternoon, and the sun was about to set. After a fierce battle between the two sides, Norman's patrol cavalry was miserably abused by a team of Kuman archers. Immediately afterwards, the two sides set up camps and prepared to continue fighting after dawn. Immediately afterwards, Egil had a sudden idea: he had fought for more than two years and had not yet played a night attack. I have to say it was a pity. It was better to choose a day than to meet the sun, otherwise it would be a time tonight?

Although he has night battles, excellent cavalry generals, and various bonuses such as the commander of the Knights, because the danger of this battle is very high, Egil does not want to go.

But in the end, Egil went. When the noble knights from all over the world looked at him with excitement, Egil suddenly understood what it means to drive a duck and put it on the shelves. Unlike the professional soldiers under Egil who were already used to the coach not taking the battle to kill the enemy, but only commanding on the spot - the nobles from all over the world are still in the era of personal heroism. Whether it is the noble knight, the feudal knight, the ranger knight, or the hired Frank knight, the attribute "may charge without authorization" in their attribute column.

So, say.

Egil is extremely vain.

——No, no, no, this is not the point, the key is that if you shrink your eggs at this time, you will be looked down upon, and the nobles will think that "this king is just like this" and "a cowardly waste" - At this moment, in Europe, besides being disabled or underage, there are really not many people who dare not go to fight to kill the enemy in person - even Eastern Rome, which is known as the most powerful country in Europe, back then - I mean - that's wrong, it should be said that it was another world - in another world, you have to go to fight to kill the enemy in person. At that time, your sister's army of Eastern Rome was 100,000, and your sister actually wanted the emperor to go to fight to kill the enemy in person, and in the end, she was captured. Your sister's father was killed.

Thinking of the tragic experience of the Eastern Roman emperor back then, Egil shivered for a moment - an ominous sign, bastard.

In this way, Egil forced a smile, and finally reluctantly accepted the decision to lead the night attack in person. The question arose. In order to show off in front of Egil and see if he could steal some spoils back, the nobles also wanted to go there one by one. But Egil was not willing - it seemed like such a night attack. If you don't have enough confidence to destroy the other party at once, the focus is on one blow to escape. If it is the professional troops under Egil, Egil will whistle and go east to west. If one attack is cheap, you can leave.

However, if this group of short-sighted local nobles is added, it will be troublesome. They snatch heads and compete for honors, and make money with strong spoils... It will be difficult to pull it out again when fighting.

But Egil had a way. Egil suddenly thought of something: what does these nobles have to do with death? No, it should be said that if these nobles die, it is better to die. It can further strengthen the centralized rule... As for those who retreat or not after the fight, they can retreat back anyway. Anyway, others can't control themselves.

After Riegell figured it out, he laughed and gave an order. This time, Egell's command had a total of 4,700 cavalry, of which 1,000 were given to the other two armies. He still had 3,700 heavy cavalry under his command. The night blindness in the Middle Ages was quite serious. Therefore, this battle was definitely a victory or defeat. So the more people went, the better - but there was still a little problem here. If it was just the army under Egell's command, then it was easy to quietly enter the village and shoot. But Egell looked at these noble armed forces, and they didn't look like the masters who could quietly play sneak attacks.

"...Forget it, let's take one step at a time." Egil gritted his teeth, and then decided to prepare for everyone first, and wait until the second half of the night before attacking at night - you are not allowed to fall asleep, otherwise you will be unconscious when you wake up in the middle of the night.

It was not until the second half of the night. Egil looked at the pocket watch (redeemed by the system) and showed that it was twelve o'clock in the evening. God also gave him very much face. This was a dark and windy night. It was just that there were snowflakes floating in the sky and the strong winds of level 4 or 5, which made people feel cold to their core.

While cheering himself up, he became the best man in the hardships. He quickly ordered the knights to prepare and trot along the way. Nearly half an hour later, he heard the noise of people and horses and saw the fire. He knew in his heart that he had reached the barracks less than a mile away - it would be difficult to hide when he walked forward. However, at such a distance, the cavalry would never be able to react to the other side except the sentinels - this was enough.

Egil nodded, and then, the priest Peter, who was standing next to him, nodded: "God blesses you, great king." Then he opened the water bag he carried with him and sprinkled a little holy water on Egil. Then he shouted: "Leth!"

Afterwards, all the priests of the battlefield clergy also raised their scepters in their hands and shouted the name of God. The morale of the entire knight army rose instantly.

"Everyone, get on the horse and charge!!!" Egil shouted loudly. Then he turned over and pulled the mask on his helmet. He rushed towards the enemy's extremely simple military camp surrounded by fifty guard knights.

After that, whether it was the knights of the Knights, the improved tomahawk cavalry, the battlefield sect, or the noble knights, they all appeared in a state of roaring and fighting, and the impact force increased to the maximum in an instant. Then, the 4,700 heavy cavalry rushed over with a scattered formation and an unyielding posture...

"That's right, there will be no such thing as trapping the horse pit and stumbleing on horses, right?" Egil was distracted for a moment, and then a large number of cavalry rushed over, knocking over a layer of fences that could not be stopped by dogs. He rushed into the barracks and rushed over according to the marching tent, directly crashing into the tent, and trampling the enemy who had no time to escape into meat sauce.
