"Why do Christians suddenly show strength at this time? They are so good at choosing their time."
Seeing his troops retreat before the Christian advance, Janos couldn't help but pursed his lips, which was a sign of his nervousness.
"It seems that they are planning to launch an offensive in anticipation of the arrival of the reinforcements. Lord Janos, after all, the reinforcements have boosted the morale of the Christians a lot. It is normal for them to want to take advantage of this opportunity."
A chief was analyzing beside the leader, and he wanted to leave more impression on the leader.
However, the disgust and irritability on Janos's face immediately increased. He wanted a solution now, not an explanation. He knew all these things!
When the chief saw the leader's unkind expression, he wisely ran away and hid among the crowd.
Working under Janos requires not only ability, but also a sharp eye, so that you can live well without falling over. This has become the consensus of everyone.
Janos's mood continued to be bad. Since the troops commanded by Sichech broke out, his bad premonition was now coming true. The Christians became aggressive and their offensive became aggressive and fierce.
Now his troops on the front line are being cut up and eliminated by the Christians. Although the amount is not very large each time, the Christians keep doing it. If this continues, he will be the loser.
This feeling was very bad and made him very uncomfortable.
And just when he was about to send more troops to save the deteriorating front, the calls of his subordinates rang in his ears.
"Lord Janos! The Christians have sent cavalry to the right wing!"
As the man shouted, Janos saw Christian cavalry dressed as Magyar knights running past his eyes. The horses stirred up pieces of dust as they passed, making the scene spectacular.
"Damn it, then send out those nomadic cavalry to block those Christians who are trying to make a detour. It's time for them to do their work! Then order the believers to come forward and maintain the battle line!"
Janos was a little annoyed. This group of Christians was really doing one thing after another, so he was very decisive in giving orders. Those gaps must be blocked.
And that's exactly what Christians want him to do.
As the new troops advanced, after a fierce and short battle, the originally unstable front was temporarily stabilized. After all, those believers were desperate people, and it was feasible to use their lives to block the advance of those experienced warriors.
But the gap exists objectively after all. Facing those Christian elites who have fully demonstrated their true abilities, it is not enough for these believers to risk their lives. This forced Janos to invest more troops. After spending several
After a round of manpower, the situation is considered stable.
On the right wing, there was a foot race, horseback shooting, which is the most common on the grassland. Both sides continued to throw arrows at the opposite side. From time to time, some people screamed and fell off their horses, disappearing in the dust raised by the horses.
This kind of battle is also one that won't yield results for a while. After all, the most efficient thing in a mounted battle is always the impact.
But looking at the current situation, no one on both sides is willing to carry out the impact. After all, the impact is the most cruel and will cause the most casualties on both sides. They are more willing to just waste it like this, using arrows to come and go.
"It seems that the young man opposite who is wearing his father's skeleton has done exactly what we planned. Everything went so smoothly beyond imagination."
Rostislav looked at the battle situation and joked that when faced with the young man, he really acted at the drop of a hat and acted exactly according to their plan.
"After all, they are just barbarians. They even made their father's corpse into armor and wore it on their bodies. What a barbaric pagan act."
On the other hand, Young sharply commented on Janos's behavior of wearing his father's bones on his body. His words were full of criticism of civilization against barbarism.
But this made Rostislav, whose soul came from the afterlife and knew how vast this world was, feel a little strange.
After all, when it comes to things like civilization, aren't you Russians pure barbarians in the eyes of the imperial capital? Why bother to embarrass barbarians?
However, this thought only lasted for a while. After all, things like civilization are always relative and not absolute.
Compared to the pagan leader opposite and all the strange pagans under him, my side here is really civilized.
"The main thing is that our subordinates are all elites. Whether they are soldiers or knights, their quality is much superior to that of our opponents. Especially when they fight desperately, most of the reserve teams of our opponents have been mobilized. Next, we
Just need to wait a while.”
Sichech continued to pay close attention to the battle situation, and Meshko followed behind him, temporarily serving as his deputy.
The relationship between Mieszko and Sicech was also very good. After all, this Polish nobleman could get along well with many civilians. How could he mind the identity of Mieszko's illegitimate son?
Rostislav also didn’t mind Mieszko going there. They could communicate better with Mieszko there. Sometimes when he got anxious, his own language would really come out of his mouth. Mieszko had lived in both Russia and Poland for a long time.
Just the right person can serve as the translator.
"Yeah, all you have to do is wait."
Rostislav agreed
Although the commanders' side was calm and calm, the scenery on the front line was completely different. At this moment, both sides were fighting with all their strength. To say how fierce the battle situation was, there was only one word to describe it.
twist.
Yes, mincer, the current battle situation is like a meat grinder, sending soldiers from both sides inside to be minced crazily.
It's just that Christians play more of a role as meat grinders, and the advantage of their high-quality soldiers is undoubtedly revealed.
Pagans rely solely on their passion and fear of death, and one pagan who is not afraid of death can lead ten pagans who are not afraid of death.
This is why no matter how unfavorable the battle is, once someone among the heretics falls, someone will immediately replace him.
Both sides are now fighting with all their strength, which makes the battle more brutal and casualties continue to appear.
Corpses continued to accumulate. In many places, the two sides even fought on top of corpses. In some places, mountains of corpses gradually piled up, but this still did not affect the fierce fighting between the two sides, nor did it affect the accumulation of corpses.
The battle in many places has turned into a decisive battle for both sides to climb the mountain of corpses. Edward once described such a scene.
It's just that this time, neither side is willing to make the slightest compromise, and neither side is willing to temporarily cease fighting to remove the corpses. Instead, they just fight in the mountain of corpses. Even if the former ones have fallen, there are still countless people who follow them.
The crossbowmen under the Prince of Moscow occupied a hill on the battlefield, which was now piled with corpses. The Christians had taken it at great cost and drove away the pagan archers above.
Now the crossbowmen are standing among the pieces of flesh and blood, calmly shooting at the pagans. Their presence has caused great pressure on the pagans. After all, the crossbow arrows are so powerful, especially at such a distance.
.
Naturally, the pagans would not sit still and wait for death. They launched several assaults on the hillside, but these assaults were blocked by the shield wall of the Ross soldiers.
Once they did rush to the hillside, but then the pagans discovered that the crossbowmen were wearing iron armor and drew their swords and rushed towards them.
Rostislav looked at the scenes of fighting on the battlefield, and his face became more and more serious. This was the first time for him to experience such a fierce battle, and it was the first time for him to see such a scene.
Of all the battles he had experienced, none had been so fierce. Now Rostislav finally understood Edward's descriptions in the letter and why this battle left such a deep impression on him, because it was so bloody.
.
Sicech remained extremely calm. The Polish nobleman had seen countless such scenes, and this did not make him shaken.
Finally, the opportunity that the Christians had been waiting for came out, and some of the mountain people collapsed due to the fierce fighting.
These mountain people can't stand the fierce fighting now. These people are not here to grind meat in the meat grinder.
The front line they were responsible for also collapsed, and the Christians took advantage of the situation to cover up the situation, greatly widening the gap.
And this is the opportunity Rostislav and the others need.
