Chapter 49 Breakthrough

The two special skills directly collapsed the morale of the opponent. Then the cavalry assault tactics are basically no different from fouls. The Norman Empire's guard knights effortlessly, like a knife cutting butter, cut the opponent's array, piercing, smashing, trampling, crushing... If the opponent's array is intact, then perhaps these soldiers wearing heavy armor and holding spears can bring some damage to the guard cavalry due to inertia with their sharp spearheads.

However, what is the most important thing about the battle between infantry and cavalry? The first is morale, and the second is formation. The morale of the opponent collapses, which leads to the chaos of the formation. Naturally, it is impossible to pose any threat to the Normans. Under the leadership of Egil, the Imperial Guard easily tore through the opponent's defense line. Immediately afterwards, a larger number of Imperial Guard infantry began to follow up. The spearmen who completely tore the opponent's formation into wings also began to retreat and reduce the formation. In this way, the Imperial Guard's formation became more compact and its defense increased a lot.

"Stay at the door! When the baggage force is almost over, you go!" Seeing the last blockade of the other party, Egil shouted loudly to Artoria, and then he didn't care about it, and immediately turned around with his knight guard and turned toward the inside of the fortress.

In this way, because of Egil's efforts, the remaining Norman Empire troops finally broke through the encirclement and left the fortress that originally protected their lives, but now they have become a fortress that sieges their cages.

After the Imperial Guard occupied the city gate, it left the group of super long spearmen with the strongest defense, as well as the musketeers who matched it, and the infantrymen. The cavalry troops continued to advance and search out of the city. The rest of the infantry and the longbowman troops began to fight with the Mongolian troops on both sides of the city gate and above the city walls to strengthen and consolidate the empire's control over the outer city gate. The infantry on both sides met in close contact. The swords and axes were swinging, and the flesh and blood flew everywhere, and the end was extremely bloody.

So, after the Emperor* controlled the city gate, the main force, baggage troops and engineers, and the medical soldiers began to move forward.

"Then, the opponent's pursuit troops should gradually increase." Egil thought so. He rode his horse and returned to the rear of the palace. As he thought, there were already unknown Mongolian troops rushing over. Some of them had relatively simple equipment. They didn't seem to be the elite of the Mongolian army. But then again, Egil's rear of the palace was not elite. Nearly 30,000 soldiers were all temporarily recruited and had limited combat power.

"Shield Spearman, sword and shield hand are arranged in an array! Cover the bow and crossbow! Long Axe and Da Jin rest for the reserve team! Let's retreat while fighting, don't fight!" Egil issued an order like this, assigning tasks to the soldiers to the Wandian Army to fight and retreat under his command. Follow the main force and slowly retreat towards the gate of the outer city on the west side.

The fortress was full of beacons and corpses were everywhere. After a fight, the 80,000 Norman soldiers had lost more than 20%. The Mongols lost more, almost 40,000 people. However, both sides still fought desperately and had no intention of retreating.

The Norman army was trapped in beasts, so they were naturally willing to fight to the death. The Mongolians were also affected by the Mongolian military god skills.

"Win... Probably." After repelling several attacks from the opponent. Egil thought about this for a while, the sunset was setting and it was getting dark. Most of his main forces had withdrawn from the city. As long as they marched for another day and night, they could reach the second line of defense.

"In addition, it's easier to reach the second line of defense in two hours to prepare for the army to handle the situation." Egil thought and issued an order, and sent the order to go out and could not find the ink and ink for a while. The situation was also urgent. Egil cut his fingertips, replaced the ink with blood, and used the heraldic ring on the paper as a token. He told the Norman spies the order. After that, the Norman spies released the carrier pigeon. The pigeon fluttered for a while on the battlefield and flew away.

"If it is a carrier pigeon, the speed can be faster." Egil thought of this possibility, "If it is not shot down." Thinking of this possibility, Egil immediately sent an order to follow the Third Hussar Legion, which was going to advance with the main force, to send a group of cavalry to go as messengers. At this moment, the paper brought by the spies was not enough. Egil picked a few leaves from the small trees on the roadside, covered them with seals as tokens, and handed them to the messengers.

Just like this, after a while, when everyone felt that everything was foolish, Egil slapped his forehead and said, "Ah!", "Forgot the most important thing! Hurry up! Send messengers again to ask them to pay attention to the Moscows! This time the defeat was caused by the rebellion of the damn Moscows! No one can be sure that those shameless villains will not betray us again!"

After hearing Egil's words, the soldiers around him also reacted, and at the same time, they became even more angry at the Moscows who betrayed them. Whether they were the Normans, Austrians, or Hungarians, they all hated the enemy and cursed the Moscows.

It was not until all the messengers left. Egil thought about it again and there was nothing to do. And at this moment, the sky was already dark. Norman's main force had completely left the fortress. After Egil asked them to rest for a while, he continued to travel overnight. Egil himself returned to the temple and began to prepare to fight the chasing enemies.

Of course, in fact, although Egil felt that the vanguard troops were no longer in danger, it was not the case at all. The Norman vanguard's guards were in a tough battle at this moment. They, together with the ordinary Norman troops with a number of about 20,000, were caught by the Mongolian cavalry that came to pursue. The extremely elite Mongolian heavy cavalry, as well as the elite among the elite, the heavy cavalry of the Cyxue Army and the Proton Army galloped around the array formed by the Norman army, blocking the way.

"Forcibly break through! As long as they are defeated, there will be no danger ahead!" After a long battle, the Norman army was very tired. But after hearing Artoria's shouts, the soldiers rekindled their fighting spirit.

"Just just stick to it! There is a second line of defense ahead, and the messengers have sent it. Soon, reinforcements will come to pick us up! Just stick to it!" General Pamamei also encouraged the morale of the army in this way and advised Artolia:

"Queen! The soldiers are already very tired. They do not have enough physical strength. Moreover, the opponent is a heavy cavalry unit. Our cavalry is seriously insufficient. We do not have the ability to defeat them. I think we should form a defensive array. Use the baggage chariots and form a chariot array to block the opponent's attack. It is more appropriate to wait for our reinforcements."

Hearing General Bamamei's suggestion, Artoria glared at her eyes. She looked at the woman with big breasts with dissatisfaction, which brought great pressure to General Bamamei. However, General Bamamei still insisted on forcibly and looked at Queen Artoria without being outdone.

"It looks like not just a bigger chest and a good brain." Artoria muttered in a low voice, then raised the volume: "What makes sense. OK - let's move into a defensive posture for the time being. Divide the army into two, one defense and one rest. Take turns to guard against the enemy's attack!"

At this moment, the Norman army stationed on the second line of defense had already discovered the inappropriate defense line in the front. Fifty kilometers were not long or short. The fire that had been so conspicuous all night was naturally not invisible. The Norman recruits and local garrison troops guarding this line of defense were all the Central Army. The person in charge was General Qi Teng, the commander of the Second Hussar Legion of the Norman Empire, and two Norman vassals, Generals sent by Brandenburg and Hessen.

Later, after receiving the seal of the Norman Emperor's blood seal, the pigeon and the messenger of the order, the veteran General Qi Teng became anxious. He only wanted to dispatch the entire army to rescue his emperor. Or the generals of the two vassal states persuaded him: If the entire army was dispatched, who would guard the defense line? Then the veteran General Qi Teng said: Only the enemy in front and the allied country Moscow behind. Where would there be any trouble?

While arguing, the second group of envoys of the Norman Empire came over and told Egir about the rebellion of the Moscows. The three generals took a breath.

"It turns out to be like this... It's so dangerous!" General Qi Teng thought of what he had just said, and then he made a quick decision and said to the other two Allied generals: "I have made up my mind! I decided to lead half of the strong army out of the city to help the general. Also, I will kill all the Moscows near the fortress to prevent them from rebelling!"

He was extremely always and extremely tricky. In other words, he was worthy of being Egil's subordinate. When the old general ordered, he was full of murderous aura, which made the two generals of the allied countries swallow their saliva. After that, he hurriedly agreed.

"Also, send an envoy to spread the news of the emperor being betrayed by the Moscows and thus the defeat was spread to the rear! The Moscows would pay the price!!"
