Chapter 77 The Battle of Budapest Part 5, God Will Forgive Us

This is the super-strong army specially hired from the East Ritte Island, Minotaus. At the command of its patriarch Minotaus, a total of 1,063 monsters holding battle axes and above three meters tall walked up in great strides, several kilograms or even a ton of weight, afraid that these monsters could only make footprints of at least three centimeters deep on each step. Although according to the classification of the army, these monsters with few armors should be classified into light infantry. But looking at their way of walking, the earth was shaken. No one could associate these guys with light infantry.

In fact, it seems that such a monster cannot be compared with ordinary troops.

When did these monsters start to serve the empire? It is no longer verified. In short, in these few years, more than 3,000 Minotaurs in three gangs have become one of the secret weapons of the empire. Their status is ranked beyond all Germanic, Latin and Valangi mercenaries.

It can even be said that if it weren't for the plain terrain, even the strongest armoured Paladin, the nominal power of the empire, would not be the opponent of these guys.

It can be said that the miraculous results created by these guys even surpassed those of the Iron Armored Paladin and the Eastern Roman Imperial Guards. Originally, according to the Greeks' enthusiasm and easy-to-movement style, soldiers like this...

Even foreigners can easily get their cheers and love. But these guys can't do it.

Because these guys have a fatal and very unpopular setting, they like to eat people.

That's right, one stroke at a time.

Before these guys were recruited, they were once notorious alien monsters. There was even a massive attack by the Minotaus race, eating up all the people in Crete. Such a terrifying record.

They eat people not because of survival. In fact, they can also eat other meats, or even food crops. They eat people just because they think humans are delicious. That's it. There is no special reason.

Therefore, they are not favored by the Greeks, so it is conceivable. In fact, there is also a lot of controversy in the country of God whether to accept these guys who have the custom of cannibalism as soldiers. Because the employment conditions proposed by these guys are as follows: they do not want gold, silver, jewelry, land and other treasures. They only want people, and they are children, children who are less than twelve years old. Because it is said that this age group will not secrete a certain special chemical element, which can ensure the quality of meat and something...

Therefore, the Imperial Senate refused very firmly, asking these guys to join the glorious Roman army.

"Turn a group of man-eating monsters into Roman army? My God. This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard of. Since the beginning of the city of Rome on the Apennines before the arrival of Jesus Christ on the BC, Rome has had such or such farces. But no one is more ridiculous than what we are talking about now! They are pagans! They are devils! They are man-eating monsters! And you are actually going to turn them into Roman soldiers?! Are you not a little ashamed?!"

At that time, during the debate, Mr. Xi from the Senate made such a generous speech and scolded the Eastern Roman generals who made such suggestions. Then he was assassinated that night.

So the next day, the proposal was finally approved with a slight advantage. Of course, the Eastern Roman Empire was quite shameful at that time.

Moreover, the main enemy of the Eastern Roman Empire at that time was the rising Arabs. Therefore, the imperial emperors at that time attached another seemingly no problem to this contract: Minotaus mercenaries could only be used in wars with pagans and to pay for their population, and they must also use pagans.

After adding such attached documents, the opposition within the empire became much smaller.

After all, there is often a slogan in the Christ world: Killing pagans is not considered killing people, but doing good deeds and other things. So the Greeks did not care too much about pagan cubs.

Therefore, the Minotaus clan, or the Minotaus, joined the Imperial Mercenary Serial Armed Forces in this way, and finally reached the scale of more than 3,000 people in the Sanmu Regiment.

At this time, Basil II broke the imperial tradition and released these monsters to go to the battlefield.

We can also learn from this aspect how strong the battle was, how angry the Greek emperor was at that time and how eager he was for victory.

So, this group of guys who seemed to be born entirely for war walked towards the battlefield amid the rumbling sound of running shaking the earth.

"Look! What is that?!" An Italian soldier who was on the front line, raised his head and exclaimed in surprise. Then he was cut off by an Eastern Roman imperial guard.

At the same time, the Greek soldiers not far from the Minotaurs, including the armored paladins and the imperial guards, all rushed to make way and let these human-shaped road roller-like monsters rushed over.

"I knew it was like this. It's not fun..." Minotauros muttered in a low voice. He didn't have to think about what he said was "funny", and he knew it was something related to the massacre of friendly forces...

"Monster?! Is it a Minotaur?!" Northern Italians are worthy of being a well-informed business nation.

If it were the army of other countries at this time, it would probably be necessary to connect these terrifying monsters with the demons of hell.

"So what?! The Lord Christ is looking at us! These monsters will not be our opponents!!" The commander of the Swiss Guard in the front row shouted and encouraged morale after seeing the monster appear.

"Haha, is that so..." After hearing Hua's words, a miracle swung his big hand and opened several Greek soldiers in front of him who were in trouble. Then he took a step forward and swung the battle axe like a door panel in his hand and attacked him! He swept across and attacked the two rows of poor human insects in front of him.

The soldiers of the Swiss Guard quickly waved the long halberds in their hands, trying to block them, but it was useless. Under the terrifying strange power of the Minotaur, the long halberds in the hands of these soldiers were unsurprisingly cut off, or were cut off together with their heavy armored bodies! In just a moment, a Minotaur killed five fully armed Swiss Guards! Such a terrifying attack power was terrifying!

"Everyone, don't block it! These guys' attacks are too strong! We can't stop it! Attack! Use attacks to fight attacks!" The commanders of the Swiss Guard are worthy of being veterans. They soon discovered the shortcomings of their opponents and shouted loudly. The soldiers of the Swiss Guard are also worthy of being the most loyal mercenaries from the most powerful Swiss mountains. They waved their halberd wells fearlessly.

However, the skin of those miraculous men seems to be as thick as steel. Even a Swiss guard can only slightly hurt their skin. And their height can guarantee that they will not be attacked at the head, neck, and heart at once. The kidneys and other parts are also protected by stronger abdominal muscles. The miraculous men are like wearing a layer of iron armor. Although it is not impeccable, it takes a lot of effort to kill them. Often, more than a dozen Swiss guards can be killed in exchange for a miraculous men's serious injury, it is a serious injury! These tenacious guys will not die even after breaking an arm or a tui or losing half of their blood! The only way to get them dead is to smash their heads or break two of their hearts!

When the Swiss Guard on the front line paid a lot of casualties but still couldn't hold the Minotaur. Cardinal Hilde sighed, then turned around, looking at Andrew, who was covered in sweat and trembling with his mouth, and his fists tightly clenched, his fingernails had already pierced into the flesh and bleeding, but he was unaware of it.

"It's good to use the crossbow." After saying this, Cardinal Hilde seemed to have grown ten years old in an instant. The two leaders of the northern Italian city-states around him looked at him in disbelief, as if they didn't know him.

"What did you say? Use a crossbow? But, although the other party is a heretic, he is a Christian after all... Do we really want to do this?"

Although I had wanted to do this for a long time, but it was so public and that I violated the Pope's decree in front of the cardinal of the Pope. Andrew suddenly felt that he had great strength.

"I remember what the Pope said was that in the battle with Christians, the use of crossbows was not allowed to be used in large quantities. At the same time, I have also heard that the Greeks had similar regulations: Minotaus mercenaries can only be used in wars with pagans." Speaking of this, the Cardinal closed his eyes and held the silver cross with his mouth: "It was the other party who violated the rules first, so the Father of Heaven will forgive our sins. Amen……………”

With the bishop's guarantee, the large number of giant shield crossbow soldiers who have been in a semi-soy sauce state from the beginning of the war to the present have finally had something to do. They raised the crossbow arrows in their hands, which were originally used for flat shooting. They could not use them when their own soldiers were blocking them in front of them. But now it is different that the Minotaurs are much taller than ordinary soldiers. Therefore, the crossbow soldiers can aim at them calmly without worrying about shooting their own soldiers.
