Eagle Flag of Epirus

Vol 6 Chapter 15: Cut off and win the general (part 2)

Dear~ The domain name of this site: The shorthand homophony of \"166 Novel\", it's easy to remember! The good-looking novel strongly recommends: "Sure enough, they really didn't disappoint me at all!" Seeing Thelmium really line up as he wanted, Justinian's face finally appeared relaxed. Smiles as if victory was already beckoning him at this moment.

"Let Salleus get ready to do it. It's time to give those guys some surprises." Justinian said to Arslan who was next to him, and the knowing Arslan immediately drew his bow and shot an arrow that had been waiting for a long time. , Indicating that Salius and his heavy armored cavalry team had already hidden waiting for Justinian's order.

   The sharp whistling sound tore through the sky, but such a signal among the cliffs did not arouse the alarm of the Bolgarians. They only thought it was a hawk crowing.

  ……

The soldiers in the rear pushed **** the huge trebuchet, which was ordered by Baron Lovevii to carry them. Although it was so cumbersome that these Paulgarians complained, they had to admit that this thing was really a siege weapon. No. However, in the eyes of many people, it is really unnecessary to take it to deal with the former stragglers of the Southern Army.

   But when they were marching halfway, there was a violent sound of horseshoes on the side of the hillside. The nervous officer hurriedly raised his eyes and looked in the direction where the sound came from. Could it be said that it was an ambush by the enemy, but there can be troops using war horses in such rugged places. Where is the sound of horseshoes?

   A confused officer glanced intently, and at the moment the scenery on the hillside shocked the commander. They did encounter an ambush, but in the war cases he knew, there had never been such a crazy raid. If this was done deliberately by someone, he can only say that that person is completely mad.

It was a cavalry team armed to the teeth. They apparently had long been ambushing on the hillside on the side of the Bulgarian army’s path. The attack was launched just now, and even though the steepness of the hillside had slowed down, they looked at the cavalry. When the horse rushed down the astonishing slope, both the Bulgarian officer and the soldiers were shocked.

The commander of this cavalry is not someone else, but Salius who has been given the order. His men are all elite cavalry in heavy armor. They are all the essences selected by Grand Duke Anastasius. Under such terrain, they drove their horses as if walking on the ground. At this moment, their target is undoubtedly the infantry without the protection of cavalry and these siege equipment.

The swooping cavalry was like falling from a cliff in the eyes of outsiders at this moment. The amazing impact combined with the momentum of the rolling iron hoof made the Bulgarians react for a while, and at this time the enemy’s lance charge had already taken place. It's a stone's throw away from myself.

   "Archer, let go!"

   The Bulgarian nobles hurriedly shouted and set out to step down and focused the firepower to stop them, but the heavy armored cavalry of Byzantium threw the light javelin with their waists at the Bolgar crowd who had not yet completed the assembly. I saw that the javelin was like a dense rain, and their marksmanship was extremely superb. Most of the people who were shot were bleeding from their throats or chests. The light javelin itself can’t be said to have such a great lethality, but the moment of inertia when throwing on the horse is also amazing, not to mention that some of the soldiers of the Bolgar have even a piece of leather armor. No, there were countless casualties in an instant.

The two waves of short javelins pointed out by the Byzantines were enough to win the final time. Before the Bolgar crossbowmen could take aim, the Byzantine heavy-armored riders who formed the wedge-shaped formation tore the Bolgar army. Fragile formation.

   rushed down from the almost vertical terrain. Even if the horse stumbled and fell, the others continued to roar without fear. Even the brave Bulgars were afraid of this determination.

   "It's crazy, they are just a bunch of lunatics!"

The commander in command of the infantry almost groaned that when his army was in charge, he was always vigilant to prevent possible sudden attacks, but the cliffs here are too steep, and it takes a lot of trouble for the asynchronous army to climb up. I really don’t know these people. How did it get up with the war horse.

I saw that the cavalry squadron in samurai was like a dangerous sharp knife, and the Bolgar warriors in the front and rear queues had no time to rush over to support them. They watched the cavalry unit on the opposite side cleanly cut through the line of defense composed of infantry. , The archer and the short spear couldn't stop the indestructible charge of the lance. In an instant, countless people were like fallen wheat being arbitrarily harvested and trampled by the cavalry rushing down the mountain in front of them. At this moment, Byzantine heavy-armored riders don't even need to wield weapons anymore. They only need to let their iron-clad horses collide and adjust the angle of their spears at will, so that they can easily tear the flesh and blood in sight.

   And such a cruel scene completely destroyed the morale of the Bolgars. Countless soldiers finally couldn't bear the fear, threw down their weapons and turned and fled. Some even rolled down the hillside and were wounded by thorns in order to save their lives. And this change was because everything was too unprepared for the Bulgarian soldiers. They thought it was the remnants of Palatonaon who were chasing after the defeated stragglers, but who would have thought that they would encounter Byzantine heavy cavalry volleys.

   drag the pope out and beheaded~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Although the pope is only the supreme leader in name, his beheading will also seriously affect morale.

   "Don't retreat! Hold on! Hold on!" Looking at the defeated men, the Bulgarian aristocrat who commanded the rear army was also anxious. If the back road is cut off, then all of them will be in desperation.

   But the army was defeated like a mountain, and the situation was no longer something he could control alone. Where could the soldiers fleeing around be able to restrain the ground. At this moment, the sound of horseshoes suddenly approached in the ears of the Bulgarian nobles, and the dangerous breath fell from the sky at this moment.

what happened? !

   The whole body only felt a chill, and when the Bulgarian nobleman, who was still trying to reverse the defeat, reacted, he realized that his body was directly pierced by a gun from behind.

   The speed of shooting the gun was brought into full play under the swift charge. The Bolgar nobles did not even feel much pain before they collapsed, and their spine had already been punctured.

It was none other than the cavalry captain Salleus who carried out this perfect beheading operation. Riding a lance, he provoked the death of the Bolgar nobleman on the spot. The Roman general uttered a long scream at this moment, and soon he was like a stream of iron. The cavalry completely split the Bulgarian army to pieces. 166 Novel Reading Network
