Chapter 16

The third most powerful knight in the Battle of Frankfurt

The war has now entered a white-hot stage! Norman's heavy cavalry continued to assault, and after breaking through the second array without any suspense, they were hit head-on by the Emperor Will Knights of the Holy Roman Empire - although the equipment of both sides was very similar, and the members were all elite knights who had been through many battles. However, the Emperor Will Knights had an advantage over the Norman Knights - there was speed. [bsp;   The speed of the impact.

After the Norman cavalry group had drilled two layers of infantry fronts, its impact had dropped to an almost negligible level. However, the knights of the Holy Roman Empire had just started to rush. The heights of both sides were imagined. In a moment, the Norman knights and heavy cavalry in the front row had no time to react. Then they saw a heavy knight wearing a white black eagle coat rushing towards their side like a ferocious and evil spirit. The heavy cavalry in their hands was about to stab at their heart!

"The Glory of the Germans!!!" The Holy Roman Empire knights in the front row roared like this, increasing their horse speed to the extreme, and rushing towards the Normans

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

The heavy cavalry of both sides began to confront fiercely! In the first round, it belonged to the German knights with longer weapons! Before the Norman heavy cavalry and the knights reached the attack distance, the cavalry of the knights had approached the Normans' chest! The next moment, the most elite knights, those Norman knights who could make evasive moves skillfully while wearing heavy armor escaped. Under the other party's stunned gaze, they avoided the sharp edge of the cavalry, and the war horses of both sides passed by! The next round was the Norman Knights!

Those knights or heavy cavalry who are inexperienced and have insufficient skills were picked up by the opponent's cavalry, and the heavy cavalry under high-speed charge was almost invincible - even as the Eastern Roman princess praised, they could simply break the Babylonian Tower of Heaven! Under such a might, the heavy chain armor and the composite armor of the Norman cavalry were useless like thin paper - the German knights' cavalry's cavalry pierced their armor without any obstacles, and then they directly pierced their bodies again. The fine iron spear head was directly revealed from their backs!

The Norman cavalry squirted blood on their face armor, then their bodies swayed and fell down from the horse's back. Then they were stomped on the heavy-armed war horse that was galloping past and turned into rotten meat.

The well-made armor also turned into shattered copper and iron that was twisted and unshakable.

In the first round, the German Knights won the game!

However, in the second round, when both sides intersected their horses, the Norman Knights and the heavy cavalry swung the heavy weapons in their hands and smashed them down on the enemy's helmet. Whether it was a battle axe or a mace, it seemed much thinner than the composite armor of the cavalry. Only a layer of iron helmet can achieve instant killing effect.

——The Norman Knight cut down with an axe, and with the help of horsepower and the sharpness of the battle axe, it can easily cut the opponent's iron layer. In addition, the scalp and skull inside are cut open directly - and then the battle axe is directly retracted. In the next second, two seconds, three seconds - a large number of red, white, and messy things flowed out along the gap cut by the battle axe. The Germanic Knights couldn't even hum and declared their death directly.

The damage caused by the Norman heavy cavalry using the mace seems even more terrifying - the heavy cavalry who waved the mace with all their might with all their strength can directly deform the opponent's iron helmet - together with the skull and brain inside, it is like a collapsed piece of watermelon...

Immediately afterwards, the heavy cavalry of both sides were entangled. The Germanic knights abandoned their rifles and replaced them with long swords to launch a fierce hand-to-hand battle with the Norman knights and the heavy cavalry.

"Damn it - someone forgot to equip us with heavy armor-breaking weapons!" Many German knights thought of these questions before their death...

It is very sad - the general equipment of the German knights is a sword that is very slashing and stinging. This light weapon has a faster attack speed and has a longer attack range than short-handed weapons such as maces and tomahawks. It is very advantageous when facing light-mounted enemies - this is also because in general, the opponents of the knights are other knights. They can basically decide the winner in the first round, that is, the stage of stinging spears. For another type of opponent, those recruited peasants used as infantry...what do you expect them to be equipped with? It is much more effective against light-mounted infantry long swords than the above two weapons.

Therefore, this configuration is indeed very suitable in the traditional medieval sealed war. However, as the soldiers' armor and equipment are becoming more and more quantitative, the armor rate is getting higher and higher, this equipment seems a bit untimely. The Germanic knights were beaten so badly. The long swords in their hands were completely unable to defeat the opponent's defense of the Norman cavalry wearing chain composite armor and even the heavy chain armor. On the contrary, the chain composite armor on their bodies was completely unable to stop the opponent's attacks from the battle axe and mace. In this way, although the Germanic people roared wildly and fought with the Normans with the spirit of an indomitable suicide squad, the final result was still unsatisfactory.

Just as the heavy cavalry of both sides fought a decisive battle, Norman's heavy infantry array also rushed up, and under the cover of the longbowman's shooting, it launched a charge towards the disintegrating first array of the Holy Roman Empire. The Norman Death Assault Warrior, known as the strongest assault infantry in Europe, completely smashed the opponent's array that was barely in appearance. Immediately afterwards, a large number of Norman soldiers continued to flow in from various gaps, and the battle axe in his hands violently slashed and killed the Holy Roman Empire's army. The first array completely collapsed.

In this way, after more than two hours of war, the Holy Roman Empire army had fallen into a comprehensive disadvantage. The first three infantry arrays arranged by Frederick, the first five thousand army had completely collapsed, and the escaped, captured or killed were more than 90%. After being ravaged by the Norman Cavalry, the second array had not yet been able to organize the resistance they wanted. Seeing the Norman infantry also rushing over, the soldiers fled even more, and it seemed that it would not take long for the complete collapse.

Although the third array, although the charge of the heavy cavalry of the Holy Roman Empire, was able to be preserved for a moment in front of the Norman Iron Cavalry. However, the number of escapes increased at this moment. A few Germans who were still standing at their posts also turned blue and had no fighting spirit.

To be honest, Egil has experienced good and bad times since his debut, and has fought all the victories and defeats. But he has never encountered such an extremely relaxed battle that he won. He saw tens of thousands of troops running and rushing to the porpoise. His own army drove in from a long distance, as if he had entered a no-man. Egil was a little difficult to accept for a moment.

At this moment, the light cavalry that deviated to the left wing had already arrived, and after a round of bows and arrows, they charged against the enemy's flanks. The enemy infantry completely collapsed in an uproar. Starting from the left wing, the soldiers rushed to flee with distorted faces, escaping the strong bows and scimitars of the Norman Light Cavalry. Just like a beleaguered dog, they were chased by the light cavalry. The huge number of Norman Cavalry, the speed and endurance of the Norman Light Cavalry, and the day just arrived at noon, which ensured that the effect of this pursuit would be amazing.

At this point, the infantry line of the Holy Roman Empire completely collapsed. In addition, the small number of elite knights were wrapped in the middle. Only less than two hundred people were left left.

Frederick roared wildly, asking his soldiers to return to their positions and persist in fighting. However, it was useless. Whether it was obligations or responsibilities, the glory of the Holy Roman Empire, the loyalty to God and the emperor, these reasons were completely inconvincing the fearless peasants and soldiers, or those peasants completely regarded the emperor's words as in front of their ears and did not listen at all.

The great escape began like this. The knights who were still following Frederick's side to fight were less than fifty. And everyone was injured and could not bear to fight again.

Looking at the army of Normans that kept coming, as if endless, and looking at the army of computer rooms running around, crying like a poor girl. Frederick laughed wildly to the sky.

"It's not enough! My funeral is not gorgeous enough! Soldiers! My knights - look! Have you seen that hillside?! That's where the Norman pseudo-Emperor is! Let's go there! I want this winner to remember forever what the price he paid to kill another emperor!!!"

After Frederick finished speaking, he tried his best to use his personal skills - in an instant, a total of fifty knights of the Holy Roman Empire fell into an ethereal state - their speed, reaction, and combat ability increased rapidly. Each of their actions seemed to have been calculated by computers for dozens or millions of times, achieving the most perfect effect. They perfectly avoided the attacks of every enemy, and each of their attacks could hit the enemy's key points and kill with one blow!

In such a complex battlefield, these knights found the simplest and safest assault route, fighting against many enemies along the way without any entanglement. They were firm in their attitude, sharp eyes, fearless or distracting thoughts - they all locked in the watchtower where Egil was!
