This scene undoubtedly confused the Christians, and at the moment they were confused, the battering ram hit.
With the power of the impact, the shield wall that was caught off guard was suddenly knocked open. The main reason for this was that the soldiers couldn't help but retreat subconsciously when they saw this sudden thing.
After all, it appeared in front of everyone so suddenly without any psychological preparation. Everyone's reaction is really normal. It is a subconscious reaction of people, and not many people can overcome it.
Several unlucky ones were hit by the battering ram, knocked down, and then stepped on by countless pairs of feet mercilessly. They died without even being able to scream.
However, this scene did not last long. The soldiers who reacted immediately intercepted it. They started wrestling with the battering ram with their shields, and some slashed at the armored pagans carrying the battering ram. Unfortunately, the armor on the opposite side was really hard.
It can't be hit at all.
And when they saw that the kinetic energy of the impact had been exhausted, they simply dropped the tree trunk, then drew out their swords and axes and rushed forward desperately.
"Hurry! Get up to me quickly! Block the city gate! Hurry!"
Domhnall yelled anxiously. The reason for his yelling was that during the previous retreat, the battle line blocking the city gate had become slightly thinner.
And as a veteran who has been on the battlefield for countless years, Domhnall knows all too well what will happen next.
The actions of the pagans were just as he expected. The pagans who were following the battering ram immediately rushed down, and the dense front was immediately moved forward. The people who persisted and looked down on them all because there were no comrades around them.
And was hacked to death.
"Damn it!" Qiang Hui said heartbrokenly as she watched that scene.
The pagans have not yet rushed through the city gate, which is what Shaomdir and Leo want to see most, because rushing through the city gate means that the narrowness of the battle line has been opened, and the narrowness of the battle line has been opened.
If the ensuing battle is not beneficial to the side with fewer troops, then it is the pagans who have fewer troops now.
"Look down on that, that's not it, go kill the infidels! Your comrades! Give our souls to the gods, and you will defeat this god under the cross!"
Kuna walked through the city gate carrying an ax with both hands. My small size and giant snake tattoo made me very conspicuous among the crowd, and the appearance of the leader naturally boosted everyone's morale.
"Have you ever thought that the troops you arranged at will really worked? Everyone came to you! Gael, he went to protect Mrs. Zoe!"
Leo rushed down directly, and the one in front of me was not another group of soldiers who were preparing to assemble according to the order later. We rushed directly towards the battlefield. The appearance of reinforcements made it so that there were so few things happening between the swords and flints.
The soldiers found the backbone, and we joined the battle one after another.
Finally, the battle line stabilized, and the two sides fought in the open space in front of the city gate. However, the battle did not turn into a melee, because there were crossbowmen below the city gate rushing up to join the battle.
Those crossbowmen are also strong. We all wear iron armor. Those people exist as Rostislav's guards. Their combat power is as complicated as firing crossbows. They can easily fight and capture.
It's also because we pagans have always been able to break into the gate and be blocked inside.
"Shaomudil, I'm here to take care of you. Your guards will protect you."
Just when Shaomudil summoned his soldiers and prepared to gather a shield wall behind Mrs. Zoe, Zoe spoke. There was no trace of panic in your tone, but the meaning of contempt was obvious.
"But madam..."
Shaomudil wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Zoe.
"His warriors did not see where they should be, but stood beside your man, captain, you are enough to protect yourself. What's more, if the rear is defeated, you will be finished. Is Rostislav Palace a fortress?
"
Shaomdir shook his head. Of course, this palace is a fortress, just a mansion for the prince. I agreed with Mrs. Zoe’s statement, so I nodded. Just when I was about to lead my army to kill, Zoe
Yi stopped me again.
"Take down your guards, we will be effective."
Following Zoe's words, these eunuchs and warriors who had been standing silently in front of the prince and his wife stood up. Our faces were all shrouded in veils. We could see our expressions, but there was hesitation in our eyes.
We are cowering, as if the battles behind our eyes are not routine for us.
Zoe knew that those guards soldiers had gone through many wars when my father was the emperor, so instead of letting us protect a man, it is better for us to go to the battlefield and play our role.
Shaomudil didn't say anything. Of course I could see the contempt of those soldiers. He just waved for us to follow, and then walked towards the melee battlefield.
Zoe's protection was taken over by the armed civil servants and servants around me. Many of them were even trembling when they saw the bloody killing scene, but only one of them stood calmly beside Zoe.
Qianghui Pappas, I wore a prairie iron mask under my face to cover my face. Before I understood that it was an invasion caused by pagans, Narr wore the mask that was originally just for decoration.
Iron face.
Because I know that the smallest attack point on the opposite side is not me, so I am suitable to appear on the battlefield. If the enemy can see my face so accurately, it can also improve our morale.
Moreover, Narr did not have any fear in his heart. Looking back on what he did during that period, I was very confused. Everything I did, underestimating it, accelerated the arrival of that scene, but did I expect that that scene would actually come?
so slow.
Nar is not afraid in his heart, but I am afraid of something very complicated. I am afraid of being thrown out by the prince of Moscow as an abandoned son who appeases the people. I have seen many such cases in the imperial capital, and I am often thrown out.
Guys are just people who do what they are supposed to do.
It is also for this reason that Nalpo has no soul to guard his home, because I know that even if I have overcome the difficulties in front of me, there are still no difficulties that need to be overcome.
My state was noticed by others, and I stood there dumbly all the time. Xiaojia also reminded me repeatedly not to wander around for too long, because we have to protect my wife.
"Speaking of which, Nar, you have experienced such a scene long before you arrived in Ross. Now you are in such a scene again, and he is standing beside you."
Zoe looked at the fighting behind her, with memories in her eyes. You thought of some past events, and the light from the burning fire in the soldiers' dormitory shone on your face, making your expression less mysterious.
"I think your father also lost his throne in such a scene, and was then exiled to the island. Speaking of which, I brought the blame on myself. I rejected the orphanage director too hastily, and then I treated Basil's son, this me.
No wonder the people of Constantinople were angered by the actions of someone who recognized him as his mother."
Zoe talked about things in the past, and those things shocked Naru. What Zoe said at that time... was that a hint?
It was also at that time that I suddenly discovered that I actually had some fear in my heart... How could it be? I would actually be afraid of that lady? I watched you grow up.
But I didn't say anything, I just waited for Mrs. Zoe to continue speaking. Mrs. Zoe's words were full of profound meaning, so it would be better for me to listen less.
"This is not the past, Mr. Nar, don't you think so? No matter what, what you have to do now is to get through the difficulties behind you."
After hearing that, Nal understood what Zoe meant, and I also knew clearly, "You have always been hesitant about your loyalty to your husband, madam."
And I sighed in my heart. The qualifications you showed back then were extraordinary, and now that you have become a ruler, you should have no wife. Looking at the qualifications you show now, even if you are serving as a ruler in Constantinople,
The Queen is also very competent.
"That's fine." Zoe said with a smile, and then you looked at the battlefield, "Bring your crossbow."
Following Zoe's order, the servants immediately handed over a hunting crossbow. The crossbow was not yet decorated with various exquisite decorations, but it had the effect of being a murderous weapon.
Then, Zoe fired the crossbow toward the battlefield, and the flying crossbow hit a heretic in the head, leaving me defenseless and dead.
