On July 4, 1000 AD, after more than three months of preparation, the Mongolian vanguard army launched an attack on the absolute defense circle deployed by the Norman Empire in Moscow, marking the official beginning of the war between Norman and Mongolia, the two world's strongest empires.

Although it was just a tentative attack. Although it was just a group of people who were unable to control themselves, had low fighting will and low morale, forced recruitment. However, when they saw countless people, densely packed with people, the Norman soldiers on the front line still felt their scalp numb. Even many peasant soldiers who were also temporarily recruited were trembling in fear and could not exert their due power.

The Mongols' vanguard troops invested 30,000 Persian slave soldiers in one attack.

These soldiers were messy and did not have enough weapons and equipment and siege equipment. But the number was enough.

"Don't be afraid! They are just a group of slaves! Look at the ragged clothes they wear, look at the pitiful equipment they wear! As long as they teach them a little, they will run away like a rabbit! Do you cowards listen to me?!" At that time, inside the wooden fort on the front line, Norman's officers, and noble knights from Hungary, Moscow and Austria cheered their subordinates in this way. They cursed, kicked and beat them with their boots, and pulled out their swords to threaten. Forced and promised to use these means to deal with their soldiers, and demanded that they be loyal to their duties and fight hard!

When the slaves reached the periphery of Moscow's absolute defense circle, their speed began to slow down. A wooden fence stopped them. Some people tried to climb over, while others wanted to push the fence down with their weapons or with their hands. More people stopped and were at a loss.

Because these people did not want to work for the Mongols. So, although, even though they were blocking them was just a wooden fence. But they felt that since something was blocking them, they could stop naturally and no longer have to charge forward and fight the enemy.

Of course this is impossible.

"Occurrence! Hurry up and attack! Don't let me say you trash again! Otherwise I will cut off your head as a ball to kick them!!" When these Persian slave soldiers were hesitating, behind them. To be precise, the five soldiers from the Mongolian, Kazakhs, Uzbeks, Uygurs or other grassland tribes who were supervising the battle behind each hundred-man team would curse like this. Of course, the Persians may not understand what they said. But there is a language that even a little wise chimpanzee can understand.

The nomad soldiers of the grassland cut off the heads of several people closest to them.

Pulling their scattered hair, lifting their heads, then waving the scimitar, roaring loudly, and constantly pointing fingers at the Normans' lines not far away.

Now you understand, right? It’s impossible not to understand, right?

So, the slave soldiers who had just had a little hesitation had no choice but to continue moving forward under the supervision of the nomads in the grassland. The 30,000 troops became serious. Even if a fence was strong, it was useless. The fence was quickly flattened.

"Soldier! Hurry! City defense crossbow!!" The fortress designed by the Norman Empire's engineers was very scientific. The first wooden barrier wall was within the effective range of the large city defense crossbow machine. Although these crossbow machines that can fire huge crossbow arrows like long spears are slightly outdated than artillery. But just like what Aurora said back then, crossbows are still the mainstream long-range attack weapons of this era. The extremely lethal crossbow guns face enemies with ragged and completely without armor. The result can be imagined.

Just like a candied haws, the experienced engineers aimed at the opposite side, where the most enemies were the most densely populated, and then pulled the trigger with both hands. A two-meter and a half-long crossbow gun suddenly penetrated the bodies of four enemies in a row. It did not hit the deadly key, causing these enemies to keep wailing, the wounds were shocking and bleeding. Several people struggled to pull the crossbow gun out. However, in this severe pain and the chaotic level, the four people could not work together at all. So except to make the wounds bigger and bigger, there was no other achievement.

The loud wails and painful and terrifying appearance of these soldiers made the morale of the soldiers around them drop a lot. The same thing happened in other parts of the Mongolian army at the same time. On the front row, above the twenty wooden forts arranged in a tooth-shaped manner, a total of 120 heavy crossbows opened fire at the same time. It brought extraordinary shock to the Mongolians.

City Crossbow Machinery One Round of Scatters. Persian Slave Force

Nearly 200 people were killed or killed by these cannon fodders.

And looking at their journey from the outer defense line of the Norman Empire, they have moved forward fifteen minutes and not five meters away.

If we continue to calculate according to this ratio, then we may not be able to die before we can reach the front of the Normans.

"If we fight like this, our army will suffer a lot of casualties. Will we make some adjustments?" In a high ground not far from the battlefield, the Mongolian vanguard General Su Butai asked this question with his Mongolian households.

"No, anyway, the meaning of these slaves is to consume the enemy's bows and arrows and supplies. You see, isn't that great?" Su Butai, this Mongolian general who had wolf-like eyes and killed countless people, looked at the flesh and blood of his own slave soldiers in front of him, not only did he not feel uncomfortable or disgusted, but he seemed to have seen some beautiful scenery and showed a cruel smile.

"But if such a dense formation is used, the enemy will be more responsible for me. Even if we have to consume the opponent's arrows, I think we should use a looser formation."

Next to him, the hundred-household family continued to offer advice.

"You don't understand. Those slaves are very timid. If they don't let them use dense formations,

If they see enough companions around them, their morale will not be guaranteed. I am afraid that they will collapse if they have a little disturbance." Su Butai explained this.

"So that's the case. You are so amazing. You know so many things." The hundred-hun suddenly realized.

"It's nothing. I'm just a little lucky. I've followed Khan for a longer time and experienced more wars." Subutai laughed and said this. In fact, there was another reason. Subutai didn't say it. It was not impossible for him to reduce the casualties of these slave soldiers. He did this, in fact, intentionally trying to weaken the power of the Persians. This was also one of the tasks assigned to him by Genghis Khan. After all, the Mongols were conquerors and aliens.

Treat Persians and other races as slaves. They do not want those conquered races to recover and bite them.

"So we have to weaken their power..." They and the Normans consumed each other. The Mongols reaped profits. They deserved to be Genghis Khan." Thinking of what Genghis Khan said after summoning him alone, Su Butai sighed secretly. Then he looked over and saw that the tens of thousands of Persian slave infantry advanced a little, entering areas full of traps, caltrops and trenches.

In this area, Persian slaves were unable to move forward, their progress slowed down, and their casualties increased a lot. They either stepped on empty feet and suddenly fell into a trap full of sharpened wooden stakes, or fell into a three-meter-deep trench to avoid the arrow and could not climb out. Some of them stepped on caltrops and screamed in pain.

After a while, they also entered the range of Norman crossbowmen. On the front line, the Norman heavy crossbowmen holding pulley crossbows fired in a salvo, and a blood mist was generated among the Persians. The speed of climbing like a turtle, with extremely low morale and tactical qualities, and simple equipment that could not be more simple... "."..., hundreds of Persian slaves died under the rain of arrows.

It collapsed, and finally collapsed. When the slaves fell into chaos, there was no more courage to move forward.

The Norman officers on the front line decided to give them a last blow to more than a dozen torque catapults equipped with the iron cannons. Under the operation of the Norman Engineers, they aimed at the chaotic enemy group. Then, the Norman Engineers stepped forward and cut off the tight rope. The catapult "boom" and threw the iron cannon out. Then a large rumbling sound rang out among the enemy group, becoming the last straw that defeated the camel.

The Persian slaves whose morale had been reduced to the point of being lowered, finally could not bear this pressure. They cried, and turned around and ran away as if they were crazy. In this way, this tentative attack ended in failure. The 30,000 Persian troops started fighting at nine o'clock in the morning, and fought for more than three hours in total. Jingguo didn't even touch a Norman hair, and they were beaten to pieces... "...

"The first hundred people who escaped the fastest! Then collect the waste and organize the second slave unit to attack!" Seeing the slaves who escaped from the battlefield, Subutai snorted coldly. He issued such an order. The nomadic soldiers who supervised the battle quickly ordered and took their swords down.

Cut off the heads of Persian slaves who fled in the front and piled them together. Subutai threatened other slaves in this way, making the others who fled back frightened. At the same time, it also made the second group of Persian slaves, who were also 30,000 people, even more desperate.

So, at 1:00 pm, the second attack of the Persians began. As always, he was trembling, as always

, under the threat of the Mongolians and Mongolia's nomadic allies, it is as useless as ever... "...

Indeed, just like what Su Butai thought, these guys had no effect except consuming the defenders' supplies and slapping the opponent's physical strength.
