The reason why they are like this is also very simple. Both of them understand that this is a weight that may be used in future negotiations with His Majesty the King of Hungary.
For countries outside the Magyar country, the existence of chaos in Hungary is beneficial to them.
The long Polish uprising and the final suppression decades ago illustrate this point. The final suppression allowed all countries to gain benefits from this chaos. The empire gained Poland's submission, while Russia gained allies. Only Poland wanted to recover.
The country paid a lot of price.
Of course, the premise is that this chaos will not spread outside this country.
If that's the case, the situation will become like that in the initial stage of the Polish Uprising. All countries came together to help Poland quell the chaos and curb the spread of chaos, but that's all. If you want to go further, it depends on whether the Arpad family is willing.
Learn about the Piast family.
Therefore, for the sake of the possibility of His Majesty Bela selling out various interests in the future to ask for help from foreign countries, those pagans cannot be completely wiped out, nor can they receive too many blows. They do not want these pagan rebels to be eliminated due to lack of strength.
Both Rostislav and Sichech thought of this, so they were now looking at each other in tacit understanding, with knowing smiles in their eyes.
However, the cavalrymen who followed them looked frustrated. They finally defeated the enemy. They were ready to harvest or even kill the enemy chiefs, but they were ordered to stop advancing and could only watch the enemy infantry escape.
These are money. If you catch one, you can sell it as a slave. Many Russians still remember how they caught slaves in Wallachia and sold them to the Greeks. They made a lot of money at that time.
But the nobles had no choice but to endure it if they didn't want to.
But at this moment, on the battlefield behind them, those stubborn pagans were finally annihilated. These people fought until the last moment, and many of them shouted the name of the god before they died.
Fanatic believers die with their totems and flags on their backs, which can be regarded as demonstrating their will and proving their faith to the gods.
However, just when Christ's soldiers were about to start hunting down and harvesting wealth and slaves, they received an order that surprised them.
That is, the entire army was originally scheduled to reorganize and not pursue pursuit.
The reasons given by the commanders were also very reasonable, in order to prevent possible attacks by pagans.
No one can find fault with this, and although they continue to criticize, they can only obey obediently.
As the adrenaline wore off, exhaustion washed over everyone.
The soldiers mustered up their last strength to gather together and form a front again.
Many people still walked with the support of their comrades. During this period, everyone held their breath and did not let themselves relax completely.
After the battle station was established, no one sat down or lay down. Everyone leaned on each other, even if their legs were as heavy as lead.
These veterans all know that if they sit down and lie down to rest after a fierce battle, they will not be able to stand up for half an hour.
Now that the commanders said there might still be enemies, how could they allow themselves to be helpless for such a long time.
Now standing and leaning on each other can restore physical strength. Although this is to some extent more tiring than fighting in a battle formation, it can only be so.
Fortunately, these people are all elites, so they can summon up the last strength and will to form a battle formation. Only these veterans can do this. If the ordinary conscripts would all collapse now.
As the pagan deserters left, the battlefield became empty. Apart from the Christian soldiers who were still standing, there were only pieces of corpses and a few abrupt mountains of corpses.
Fortunately, most of the corpses belonged to pagans. After all, the Christians were much superior to the other side in terms of battlefield skills and weapons and equipment, which was enough to greatly enhance their survivability on the battlefield.
On the other side, the heavy cavalry, a mixture of warriors from all sides, were changing their horses. The Magyars had no shortage of horses, so they just rode on them.
The original war horses had been exhausted in the battle. If they continued to fight, they would surely die on the battlefield, and this would be extremely detrimental to the cavalry's combat effectiveness.
After the heavy cavalrymen changed their horses and Rostislav and Sichech handed over the matter to their respective deputies, they led the troops to Fekhshvar, where support was still needed.
They did not bring the infantry with them, because after experiencing a fierce battle, the infantry was obviously no longer suitable to participate in another battle, which would probably tire many people to death.
The Christians entered through the gate through which Rostislav and others left the city. After seeing the scene there, Rostislav was glad that he left a group of personal guards behind when he left, otherwise he would have really entered.
Can't reach the city.
As for why the Prince of Moscow said this, it was because the followers who stayed behind encountered several waves of pagan attacks while guarding the city gate.
The number of these heretics was much greater than theirs, and their followers were unable to do anything after dispersing the initial wave and could only keep retreating.
But in the end, they all relied on clinging to the tower to maintain their existence as nails.
And when the Christian heavy cavalry arrived, they decisively rushed out of the tower and forcibly dispersed the pagans surrounding the gate. However, these pagans who were actually mobs could not stop these professional warriors and could only watch helplessly.
They open.
Then the heavy cavalry that poured in rushed towards the rioting crowd and trampled the heretics.
The pagans had relied on their numbers to force their followers into the tower, but now that the Christians had the numerical advantage, they naturally had no choice but to be defeated along the way.
As the pagans were defeated, Rostislav and Sichech intentionally slowed down and drove them forward, killing those who ran slowly and shooting a few arrows from time to time to make them run faster.
This is a trick that has been tried and tested. Both of them have used it in many places. The rout will help them accomplish many things and avoid many battles.
The pagans along the way were all coerced by the fleeing team. After all, when they saw the heavy cavalry chasing their companions who were panicking, everyone would become frightened and start to flee.
Even the bravest fanatic could only follow the defeated army. If he did not follow, he would end up either being trampled to death by the crowd or by the hooves of the heavy cavalry driving the crowd away.
As the pagans collapsed and the citizens of Fekhshvar saw the cross flag above the heavy cavalry, everyone realized that their team had arrived, and support finally arrived.
The arrival of support inspired people's inner courage and gave them the confidence to fight against the invaders who were destroying their homes.
Many citizens picked up their self-defense weapons and rushed out of their homes, killing the pagans who fled in panic. Some were even beaten to death. The cotton sheep turned into bloodthirsty beasts at this moment.
And the local gangsters who had been hiding since the beginning of the riots also took action. These rats were very sensitive to such things, which allowed them to avoid many things.
Therefore, they hid before everything started, and now that everything is about to end, they naturally have to come out and show off their skills, so that the neighbors can see their skills, and it will be convenient to collect protection fees in the future.
The pagans suddenly discovered that at that moment, the city that had been arbitrarily dominated by them rose up to resist. Those cowards now had great courage. They also used methods that were no less than those of the pagans to torture the pagans and leave them behind.
The prisoners in their hands met a tragic end.
Many pagans remembered the sound of the trumpet they had heard, which they knew at that time represented retreat.
It's just that the city is now under their control, so how can they withdraw? The guys outside must have made a mistake, or they want to steal their loot, so they resorted to such a trick.
And under such greedy conjecture, these people lost their lives. Good words can't persuade ghosts to die. This sentence is practiced here.
In this manner, the Christian reinforcements arrived at the square in front of the palace, and here was where the largest wave of pagans and the traitor, Zergi, were located.
And as the heavy cavalry galloped, their outcome was obvious.
