When the two armies were close to this point, Rostislav noticed that it turned out that the pagans had pushed the mountain people to the front line, and he didn't know what these mountain people were thinking now.
As for Janos's idea, it is very simple. The cooperation between these mountain people and him is temporary. They just take a fancy to the wealth of Feheshvar. Since these mountain people can only be used this time, they might as well just do it.
Make the best use of everything.
Moreover, putting them on the front line can effectively prevent them from running away and stabbing them in the back. Janos is not worried about the moral integrity of this group of people.
As for the loyal supporters of Janos, they are waiting as a reserve team to preserve their strength. How can the basic base be used as cannon fodder in the first wave?
In this way, the battle lines of both sides collided together. At this moment, they have become shields and shields. People are constantly squeezing each other. Then they seize every opportunity to stab the weapons in their hands.
There is no other strategy to carry out, it is just a competition between pure physical strength.
The Christian side was more elite and better equipped, while the pagan side had more people, and the situation immediately became a stalemate.
As for a flank attack, nothing is possible. Both sides have a large number of cavalry in hand for flank or counter-flank attacks.
The situation suddenly became so awkward, as if two people were holding axes and swinging them in the air with the intention of scaring each other.
For the participants, such a battle is where their adrenaline surges, but for bystanders, such a battle is actually quite boring.
Moreover, neither side had any room for fantastic ideas, so they could only watch the melee between the armies below.
In order to pass the time, some veterans waiting for the war even chatted. For them, war is as normal as eating and drinking, so instead of waiting nervously, it is better to have a good chat.
Some of the tense recruits were also pulled over to chat with the veterans. The veterans had all gone through this stage and knew how to adjust the recruits' condition, just like what they had experienced before.
The same is true for the commanders. The battle situation in front of them is indeed a bit boring. After all, the situation on the front can be clearly seen at a glance.
It's just that as the leaders of the entire battle, they want to discuss more about the direction of the next battle, but they are not satisfied with any relaxation because of this.
"It's a bit troublesome. If we continue to waste it like this, we will definitely lose. After all, the opponent has more people than us."
Looking at the fierce battle, the prince of Moscow expressed concern. After all, the enemy has a numerical advantage. The enemy reserves are too numerous, and they are also fanatical believers who are desperate for their lives. They will be defeated if they continue to waste their lives.
.
"The enemy's cavalry is also staring at us. Once they attack, they will be entangled. Although those guys are useless, their numbers are there after all. There will be no problem in holding us back."
Yang looked at the nomadic cavalry on standby and added that he was a little annoyed. This was the first time in so many years that he had encountered such a war situation. He was completely restricted and couldn't do anything he wanted to do.
"How about we charge directly, dismount some cavalry, and then bring axes and other things to break through the center?"
Meshko made timely suggestions. In his opinion, there was nothing that could not be solved by a surprise attack. If it didn't work once, just do it again.
He originally thought that this suggestion would be approved, but Rostislav and Jan still looked grim, and they were not as optimistic as Meshko.
"There are still many fanatic believers there. These madmen don't mind trading with us for the sake of their gods. Have you forgotten those crazy naked men before? Those guys will give us even if they risk their lives.
If we cause casualties, I don't want to use cannon fodder like the elite to counteract the enemy. It would be too wasteful and an insult to these warriors."
Rostislav's tone was quite impatient, which made Meshko lower his head immediately, thinking that he said the wrong thing to make Rostislav angry.
But this impatience is not directed at Meshko, but at the current rotten situation. Rostislav really doesn't know how to break the situation in front of him.
And just when Rostislav frowned, a group of German knights dismounted their horses under the order and walked to the shield wall to support the weakened battle line. Looking at this scene, Rostislav's expression became even worse.
————————
When Rostislav was so troubled, his opponent was naturally smiling. Janos looked at the development of the battle, and the frown that had been frowned by the Russians' previous horse fighting performance also relaxed.
There is no doubt that victory will belong to him. He still has thousands of reserves in his hands, and the Russians have already been forced to dismount their cavalry and join the battle.
If he continues to consume it, victory will definitely belong to him.
Seeing that the battle situation here has been decided, Janos also has other ideas.
He has not forgotten why he came to the city. The most important thing is to control the Christian princes in the city. As long as he can control those people, this attempt will be considered a great success.
"Zoltan, where is Zoltan?"
Following the leader's shout, an old man wearing a black cloak rode out.
But if Rostislav were here, he would find that he knew this old man. He was the Christian old man who gave him the pagan emblem during the grease dispute.
It's just that this old man is now completely dressed like a pagan priest, and his body is covered with various decorations that can be considered blasphemous, which is in sharp contrast to his previous Christian image.
"Zoltan, you have to do a good job in the next task. You immediately go to the city with the trash that has just been gathered to help Zheerji take the palace. In addition, Zheerji must have something happen this time.
', You can't let me down again, your little tricks last time were of no use at all."
The waste in Janos's mouth refers to the nomadic cavalry who have just recovered from the defeat. Since these guys can't go to the battlefield, let them do other things.
And the other layer of meaning in his words has a great meaning.
From these words alone, we can see that Janos is actively making his plan more difficult.
But not everything can be seen on the surface, and some things cannot be explained clearly.
In Janos's heart, he did not regard the illegitimate son of the Arpad family as an ally, but as a tool that could be used, and it was a tool that could be thrown away after use.
The pagan forces headed by Janos do not want anyone in the Arpad family to survive, not even an illegitimate child. All the men in their prime must die. This is the lowest standard.
Only when the order of the kingdom represented by this family falls into complete chaos can the paganism in this land have an opportunity to flourish again.
Otherwise, facing the encirclement and suppression by state governors from all over the country under the command of the Arpad family, they will be defeated again soon, just like they have been for decades.
If this operation goes according to plan, they can eliminate all adult direct members of the Arpad family at once.
And with all the direct members of the family dead, there is no need for the illegitimate son to stay.
Therefore, they designed all this and took the initiative to reveal clues to Prince Rus in order to create opportunities to eliminate the illegitimate child.
For them, it doesn't matter even if all the believers sent to Feheshvar in the early stage are lost, this is a necessary sacrifice.
And most of them were people recruited by Zheerji. He won over a group of people by promising to convert after becoming king.
These people all came to Fekhshvar to work for Zyrge and work hard for the bright future in their hearts.
It's just that they didn't expect that Fekhshvar's actions were just to divert attention from the beginning. The army was the basis for all this. Janos did not expect the plan to succeed.
They were more like failures than successes. After all, wouldn't it be better to divert attention to something like uncovering a major pagan conspiracy?
However, even though they leaked information to the Christians, the Christians' vigilance was still very limited, and the illegitimate son's plan was still successful, and he even almost captured the Christian princes.
This is the sign that Janos and the others least want to see, which means that his prestige will reach its peak.
Now, Janos needs the mission to be completed, and more importantly, the mistakes must be corrected.
