Eagle Flag of Epirus

Under the original long-distance march, the Southern Army was already very tired, but after getting permission, I saw these soldiers rushed away for a while and completely ignored the command of the commander next to them. They hulled or sat or lie down casually. Even some soldiers untied their armor and placed their weapons on the ground.

Because of the frequent reports of defeat in the past few days, and the fact that they fled without fighting and abandoned the northern line of defense, not only the nobles, but also the soldiers in the army are equally fierce and demoralized. At this time, some military camps stopped and lighted up fires for cooking, and the surrounding sentries were too lazy to arrange them. Anyway, I'm leaving here, and there is no point in continuing to prepare for battle. This is almost everyone's true thoughts.

But they didn’t know what it would do or what the consequences would be. Confederate soldiers who knew nothing about the danger were still preparing to cook, but they didn’t know the smoke and fire that rose, and they were soon chased by the army from a distance. When Ivan Asen who had killed him saw it, he immediately locked the position of the Northern Army.

"Ha, it seems that they are more slack than we thought!"

Watching this scene from the hillside, Ivan Asen looked at the other nobles beside him with a sneer. He hesitated to look forward and backward before laughing at the Southern Army and satirizing the northern nobles, and almost lost his fighter opportunity.

"Yes, they must have thought that we would continue to besiege Turnovo, so they were not prepared at all. Now is a good time for us to attack!" I don't know if it is a thick-skinned old man or I really didn't understand it. At the moment, Ivan Assen The nobles behind them are gearing up one by one, just waiting to march in one fell swoop to wipe out the southern army that has become a turtle in the urn.

At this moment, they have divided their troops into three groups to complete the encirclement of the enemy. Just waiting for an order to attack the whole army will inevitably achieve the extraordinary effect of a complete victory.

And this point, Ivan Assen is equally convinced, but the only thing that puzzles him is that the time has been agreed, why the Magyar cavalry led by Jonosh and John Assen have not arrived. If they join the battlefield, Then it is bound to be able to quickly end the battle and completely wipe out Bolier Assen and them.

But now it was too late to hesitate, and then he only listened to Grand Duke Ivan giving his other nobles the final offensive order, launching a general offensive towards the unprepared southern army.

...

...

...

And when the Northern Army had completed the encirclement of the Southern Army, the nobles of Paladonnaon who had camped and rested seemed to be unaware, and the camp was filled with the crude and lax laughter of the soldiers, which was incomparably loose.

At this moment, a soldier came out of the camp and prepared to release his hands. Just as he was about to release his pants, something flashed past his eyes.

But when he saw it clearly, he realized that it was a white feather at the end of the arrow cluster, because it was too fast that he only saw a touch of white. At this time, the soldier realized that a bow and arrow had penetrated his chest with a fierce momentum for a moment, and the sharp arrow plunged directly and deeply.

"Damn it!"

After only saying this sentence, the soldier who knew nothing about what happened before he died cursed, then his head swayed, and then he fell to the ground with a thump in his upper body. And this kind of movement aroused the vigilant attention of other southern soldiers.

But it's too late...

"Then... what is that?"

"what happened?"

He yelled in a panic, while someone on the other side who had calmed down quickly notified his officer, and on the other side asked his companion to take up a weapon to be alert to everything around him.

At this moment, seeing the whereabouts have been exposed, and immediately no longer doing any concealed disguise, the northern army ambushing from the dark suddenly violently launched a general offensive towards the camp of the Paladunnaung noble army at this moment. Unconsciously, the Northern Aristocratic Army is now only a stone's throw away from the Southern Army's camp. I saw countless fierce arrows shot from the concealed place. The horses in the Southern Army team were shot over in an instant. Many people clutched the feather roots that were not in their bodies, and crawled around screaming. This made the face of a surprise attack. The horrified Southern Army was even more chaotic.

"kill!"

Like tides, the mighty northern aristocratic army rushed towards their compatriots with a murderous intent. Without any mercy, they broke through the two camps of the southern army in an instant. Those in the camps had not had time to cover them. The soldier who put on the armor and picked up the weapon was killed immediately, and even the nobleman who wanted to surrender was not spared. Because for the northern aristocrats, the Paladonnaon people are irrelevant and the best to disappear.

But just as they were as powerful as a sword tearing apart the southern army's battlefield, suddenly an army completely different from the other southern army appeared in front of the Selmium, making the northern noble army's offensive unexpectedly unprepared. Stop. The faces of these soldiers are not from Bolgar at first glance, and the facial lines are obviously softer. Is that a group of Greeks? !

At this time, the person in charge of them was Salleus who had come with Justinian not long ago~www.ltnovel.com~ and he commanded the new army of Moria who had been staying here. Under his order, everyone took up weapons and shields. Even in the face of the enemy's raging offensive, there is no slightest tension, let alone the timidity of other Bolgar soldiers.

"Everyone lining up to resist, don't panic. Give your side and back to your companions. All we have to deal with is the enemy in front of you. Destroy them." Salius raised his sword high. Under his order, the soldiers of Moriah's new army quickly moved closer and formed a solid front facing the violent enemy, as if a dam was about to stop the turbulent flood. The Moria soldiers formed a strong shield formation, and immediately collided with the Bulgarian army that was approaching them.

And these soldiers are no longer the recruits of Justinian’s provisional enlistment at this moment. Whether it is the Battle of Athens, Tripolis or Thessaloniki, they have followed all the fierce battles. Struggling in the front line by his side, Stinney is already a veritable elite, not afraid of enemies several times his own, not to mention that they are equipped with the arquebus hand cannon that Justinian gave them at this time. When Paulgar's heavy armored cavalry charged at them, they could all take it away by surprise. And this time caused all the smooth offensives of the northern nobles to stop. Instead of taking advantage of the victory to defeat the southern army, it gave the Paladonnaon nobles time to breathe and prepare.

Looking at this scene, Ivan Asen's expression also solidified, looking at the black fox battle flag, he immediately recognized the army.

"New Moriah Army, Justinian, you finally appeared."
