Conquer the Dawn of Heaven

Vol 5 Chapter 66: Battle of the 3 Danubes (5)

When the movement of the Ottoman army became strange, all of Alexander's attention was focused on the right side of the center.

Speaking of this place, this is also a weakness he was worried about from the beginning.

This is a small swamp with gentle terrain, and the terrain at both ends is higher than here. On the right is the right wing of the entire front, where the formation of the Montina army begins to shrink inward, and the front facing the front gradually gradually changes from the east to the west. The direction became north-south.

On the left side of the swamp, Alexander arranged the Genoa Sword and Shield soldiers there. This was done to prevent the enemy from possibly breaking through the front after attacking this vulnerable place.

Because it is a swamp, it is impossible to dig trenches and lay deer, and even the Musketeers cannot form a formation in front of the front line because of the terrain.

When the Ottomans began to gather in this place, Alexander finally decided to send the Balkans. Although they knew that these crazy farmers would not be able to withdraw like crazy horses once they were released, they looked at the fast approaching Musselim Infantry, Alexander couldn't think of any other way to stop them.

"Should I thank the Sultan for not looking at me that much," Alexander asked the entourage next to him, and seeing the entourage of the entourage, he could only explain the answer to this sneer. "At least that way I do n’t have to worry about sending a new army to deal with it. I."

The follower's face squeezed out a smile, and when he heard gunshots from a distance, his smile instantly froze on his face.

"Attacked?" Alexander looked to the right of the line. Through the smoke of smoke, he saw gray figures rushing towards the Balkans.

More and more enemies were thinking to the right of the formation. When a large number of Ottoman infantry approached the soft and muddy land with firearms and crossbows shooting from both sides of the swamp, Alexander pondered slightly, but Or ordered the troops on both sides of the swamp to move closer to the swamp.

"Tell Pannoni that I do n’t need him to kill as many enemies, as long as he can withstand the enemy and ensure that the position he defends is not lost, I will reward them the entire regiment." Alexander ordered and looked in the direction of the enemy .

He was a little strange to say. Although the battle had just begun, he felt that the enemy general's actions were somewhat "normal".

Well-formed frontal engagements, well-formed attempts to break through formations from weak locations, and even sending troops is not accidental with infantry instead of cavalry. Obviously the enemy intends to use cavalry to entangle themselves for a while before sending cavalry to take advantage of the chaos attack.

This tactic seems to be very different from most Europeans, but if someone who has had experience with the Ottomans in a little city knows that the Ottoman cavalry was never used first against enemy infantry.

It is used to compete with the light and heavy cavalry of the enemy, or often after the infantry and the enemy are engaged, they will take advantage of the two sides to entangle, and after the enemy has no time to divide the excess force, they will take the opportunity to break through and divide the enemy formation.

The enemy on the other side obviously wanted to do the same. The presence of Muselim ’s infantry illustrates this. It is because of this that Alexander will order the troops on both sides to move to the swamp after the Balkans attack, because according to the previous Ottomans The way of fighting, it is obvious that the Anatolian Light Cavalry should come next.

Everything is too "normal", which makes Alexander feel something strange in his heart.

The Ottoman generals of this era can be said to be experienced battlefield generals, not incompetent mediocrities or mediocre bureaucrats, so Alexander felt a little too incomprehensible, or somewhat puzzled, in a way that was too simple for the enemy.

He couldn't tell why it was, but he was a little nervous.

He felt that the enemy should have more than this means, otherwise even if he had more troops than he had, it would not be so easy to defeat him, and later the opponent might not get any more than relying on his strength to fight him. In addition to the exhaustion of too many achievements, in this case he could not think of how the opposite Ottoman general should accomplish the task given to him by the Sultan.

Alexander was puzzled in his heart, and at this moment he saw the waving flag raised from the top of the right wing.

That was the signal of the imminent battle with the enemy. Seeing that signal, Alexander's spirit instantly revived.

Perhaps it was a bit funny to say. After knowing that the enemy finally launched an attack on his right wing, Alexander first felt not nervous, but an unspeakable ease.

Finally came, this was the first thought that flashed in his heart after seeing the signal.

But then he discovered that things didn't seem as simple as he started to think.

"Any experienced general should know that his right wing is prone to attack at this time," a thinly ironic smile slipped across his thin face. Commander Ottoman took off his helmet and clamped it under his arm. The sun this season has been a bit unbearable, especially in such a tight armor, and the sweat from his forehead squeezed into his eyes from time to time has made him a little unbearable. "So naturally it will strengthen the defense of the right wing. But it would be too simple if he thought it was enough. "

After the commander finished speaking, he bent down slightly and asked the messenger standing in front of him, "Have my previous orders been conveyed?"

"Master, the order has been conveyed." The herald answered immediately.

"Well, follow my orders. According to the previous arrangement, all formations are advancing towards the enemy's right wing."

The front of the Ottoman army suddenly moved. First, a group of soldiers in the rear formation began to move to the right of the Montina army, then more and more troops began to slowly stretch the formation, and finally rushed to the front. Following the command of the rear horn signal, the Selim Infantry began to press along the front of the Montina position towards the side of the highland on the right.

It was the Balkans who first discovered that the Ottoman Front was abnormal.

When they rushed to Muselim Infantry, the Balkans only wanted to start a life-and-death battle with the enemy, so although there was a swamp in the middle and the enemy was slower to approach, it did not prevent them from welcoming Go up.

So the two sides waged a brutal war between the smelly mud and the backwaters of the small swamp.

Some people killed the enemy, some people were killed by the enemy. Even though the Balkans still remembered Alexander ’s command, they just blocked the gap in the swamp front, but they were already entangled with the enemy, even because of these two. The musketeers on the side not only had to stop firing because of fear of accidental injury, they even hid behind the trenches and low walls, guarding against the Ottomans attacking their positions while entangled with the Balkans.

It was at this time that the Balkans who had just defended in front of the position began to gradually leave the position during the battle.

First, a small group, and then more and more, because these Balkan soldiers entangled with the enemy are constantly fighting, so they unconsciously followed the movement of the Muselim infantry from their own people and from their positions, When they suddenly found themselves rushing into the enemy too prominently, everything was too late.

These Balkans were instantly surrounded and then quickly overwhelmed by the enemy Ottomans that came in all directions.

Pannoni saw that he was hacked and even dismembered by the enemy. He tried to be angry with his companions, but he was severely blocked by the Musselim infantry, and when he continued to face up to the face When the enemy launched an attack, the gap in his defense was inevitably exposed.

Pannoni's mistakes immediately paid him the price. When he took the Balkans desperately to the Musselim infantry because the formation movement seemed to be a somewhat loose formation, he did not notice that his team had not only It gave way to the gap in the front, and has also been separated from other troops on the position.

Musselim infantry is obviously an experienced soldier, and their commander is a real soldier. Years of experience allow them to quickly discover that the enemy has exposed very small weaknesses even in fierce battles.

Therefore, a team of Muselim infantry who had already been going to the right with the brigade stopped under the leadership of the leading army. They first did not believe it, and then finally determined that they were not wrong.

In the front line of the Montina army, there was really an inexplicable gap!

The Muselim officer did n’t even believe that he would have such good luck, so that when he rushed to the gap with his team, he kept looking at the intermittent low wall in front of him, worried that he would start from the low wall. Suddenly a group of archers said to be Musketeers.

But maybe it was really his lucky day today. It wasn't until this Musselim infantry rushed to a place not far from the fortification that he was met by the rifle and bow of the Montina defender who found their intention from the side position. attack.

But it was too late at this time, and now no one can stop this lucky Musselim infantry officer from making a contribution. In his cry of not knowing the local language, this Musselim infantry broke through the giant. The flood of the ruptured land flooded into the gap of the Montina position!

In an instant, the Montina formation was breached from the center to the right, and the entire front was cut into two sections, north and south!

This sudden change instantly affected the nerves of the entire battlefield.

Since becoming an army, the Montina army has never lost a unified command no matter what crisis it faces, but the front is now cut off, and the entire right wing may be completely in danger of being completely isolated at any time.

When he saw the Ottoman army pouring into the gap, Alexander almost suffocated, and the officers around him exclaimed unexpectedly.

"Go to plug the gap," Alexander's face turned blue. If he could, he really wanted to hang Pannoni and his entire Balkan regiment, but not whip but all hanged. Reserve soldiers transferred to support! "

"Adult, if we use the reserve team, we will have the only hunting guards left." An attendant reminded him, and he could see Alexander's tight face, and the attendant had to whisper and turn around to convey the order.

The Musselim infantry charge also attracted the attention of the Ottoman front commander. At first, the commander who was surprised but immediately surprised immediately ordered the troops that had not stayed away to stop advancing to the right and turned toward the sudden gap. go with.

"It seems that I overestimated the Earl of Montina," Xi Sugu smiled. "Maybe you can beat him without taking that small risk."

Xi Sugu said that he looked in the direction of the highlands of Montina's right wing. At the time, he had no intention of carrying out the Sudan's intention to encircle the Montina army in a deep and deep way. What he was worried about was that he might be caught by the direction of Bucharest from the side, so he Would rather adopt a conservative but safer tactical siege only on the battlefield in a shallow and close range.

Although the result of this may only be defeated and not completely wipe out this enemy, but he believes that Sudan can understand his intentions.

But now his enemies have made such huge mistakes. Since he can completely defeat the enemy in a more direct and even more effective way.

Divide the enemies in front of each other, and then destroy them with the strength that was already dominant. Xi Sugu believes that he can not only win faster, but also get a annihilating victory as Sudan hopes.

"Remember to capture the Earl of Montina alive." Xi Sugu issued an order to the people around him. "Speaking of that person should thank the great Sultan, at least his head can keep it until tomorrow morning."

A burst of laughter sounded from all around, and the Ottoman generals were ready to see the embarrassment of the Earl of Montina.

The gray Musselim infantry, the variegated tribal infantry, and the Anatolian light cavalry who roared while wielding scimitars, all nearby Ottoman troops rushed into the gap frantically.

In the blink of an eye, the central part of the Montina Front faced a violent impact as the dam faced the huge waves.

The Muselim infantry who had previously rushed into the gap did not believe that he actually penetrated the enemy formation until he rushed through the position. They did not know themselves until they saw the enemy troops on both sides who were hurriedly changing direction. It really broke the enemy front.

I don't know who first gave a very excited cry of roar, and then the roar spread to everyone.

The Musselim infantry roared and rushed towards the front in desperation. They did not know where the enemy commander or master was, but they knew they could only rush forward at this time.

They continued to run and charge forward until they saw a low wall with a slight bulge in front, apparently just piled up with dirt.

A hurrying figure was flashing behind the low wall, but at this time the Musselim infantry could not care about those, they just wanted to rush over.

A string of bows suddenly sounded from behind the low wall, accompanied by sporadic muskets.

The Muselim infantry rushing to the forefront fell to the ground in an instant, and gunshots roared from both sides.

Muselim's infantry's forward pace slowed slightly, but this distance was enough for them to rush to the low wall.

The officer raised the sword in his hand, and the sword with the heavy and broad blade ripped off the shoulder of an enemy on the opposite side ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ The body of the half-turned bone was sprayed with plasma and fell down in love. Behind the wall, the tarnished eyes on the half-sinked face finally saw a pair of Ottoman flip-flops that fell over the low wall and fell in front of him.

The second front hurriedly constructed by Montina's army in order to prevent this front may fall has also been broken in a moment.

The entire Montina Front was completely divided into two sections!

Seeing this scene, the Ottoman army couldn't help but rejuvenate.

The Montina Army was instantly panicked.

"Which of you will help me remember something," Alexander, who had already ridden the back of Pagasus, pulled out the saber from his waist. "It would be fine if I died in battle. If I survived, don't forget to remind me Find the Balkans! "

After talking, Alexander's feet squeezed the horse's belly, and as he cried out, Pagasus rushed toward the gap of the front.

"Follow me, hunting guard!"
