Conquer the Dawn of Heaven
Vol 5 Chapter 68: Battle of the 3 Danubes (7)
The sky in the distance was already covered with a layer of golden color, and the sunset glow shone on the Danube with a golden halo. A slightly cold wind blew from the river, leaving the wilderness in the evening full of coolness.
Alexander stood on a high-rocked stone and carefully observed the Ottoman position opposite.
The right wing of the Montina army persisted for more than an hour after being violently attacked. This was already a very good record for the Montina army, or it was this more than an hour of difficult resistance that gave Alexander The opportunity to close the central gap.
The Ottomans' attack on the right wing was extremely fierce, and it was extremely decisive. Even when there was a huge opportunity in the Central Front, Xi Sugu did not shake the determined attacking determination.
The result is that the right-wing troops of the Montina, dominated by the Genoese, have to retreat a little bit in the face of most of the enemy. The formation of the Genoese sword shields was repeatedly impacted by the Ottomans. The support of the musketeers was in a batch The suppression of the Anatolian light cavalry did not slow down the Genoese much, but a Balkan squad that was sent to the rear of the Genoese front as a reserve team had not been long after it had to be sent to fight. , Almost all died in battle.
The unusually fierce fighting made the Genoese almost scared. They never thought that the pagans would be so cruel and terrible. This caused the Genoese formation to be shaken once, and even some people were already preparing to turn around and escape.
At this time, the courage of the Balkans played a key role. The Balkans of the entire brigade rushed up against the enemies in the black oppression. They yelled and roared madly, and did not care about the deadly danger they were about to face.
When the Ottomans thought that only one more charge was needed to completely defeat the seemingly crumbling Europeans in front of them, the Balkan counterattack suddenly disrupted their steps.
The Genoese seized this rare opportunity to re-stabilize the position. When the Ottomans finally stepped on the body of the Balkans who had fallen in front of them and launched an attack on the Genoese position, the Genoese were already in the officer ’s position. Under the direction of the orderly retreat to the rear.
"Pannoni, you have to remember those who died in the war," after hearing the report on the right wing, Alexander stood side by side with embarrassment and said, "You have to remember that your fellows kept it Your brain is the same as you killed them. "
No one could describe the expression on Pannoni's face at that time, and the kind of twisted look made people seeing him feel scared.
The Genoese retreat allowed the Montina army to avoid the danger of the right wing being surrounded by detours, but they also completely allowed the Ottoman army to extend forward along the northern plains, and finally when the Genoese finally stopped to form a new front. , Ottoman has formed a pinch against the Montina army from two directions in the northwest.
"We have to evacuate from this place, otherwise it will be too bad." Alexander looked back. Although the river behind could not be seen across a hill, the wind from the river could be felt, and the back could provide There are not many areas where they maneuvered.
"Sir, there are less than 3 miles from here to the river." Busaka reminded in a low voice, hesitant light flashed in his eyes, at this time he had begun to consider Alexander when considering whether it was necessary Knock out and let people take away.
Alexander did n’t pay attention to what Busako looked like, but he knew it meant that his army had actually been half-enclosed in an area less than 5 miles wide and narrow, and it was in such a big slap area that the two sides were about 17,000 people have been invested!
"This is really a tough battle," Alexander said to himself gently, and even now he still doesn't think he is in a dangerous position, because he found that the enemy's left wing should have continued to go eastward, and then completely pressed him. The enemy forces on the banks of the Danube River, after crossing the position where Montina had defended on the left, soon stopped moving forward.
In this way, between the enemy surrounded by the northwest half and the Danube in the south behind, a huge gap appeared in the east of the front.
"Master, our army should be withdrawn from the right side of the front line as soon as possible, otherwise it may be pushed into the river." An officer said anxiously, they did not know why Alexander refused to give the order to retreat, before speaking Before they attacked the Ottomans across the Danube, Alexander once told them that the purpose of this battle was not to win, but now Alexander seemed somewhat stubborn to refuse to retreat, which made the officers feel helpless and worried "at least We should shrink the front towards the east, and now our army looks like it is easy for the enemy to attack from both sides. "
Alexander nodded silently. He knew that the officer was right. A large angle formed from west to north because of the encirclement of the enemy caused his troops to form a prominent protrusion in the northwest direction. This was for the Montina Army. It is actually very dangerous. As long as the Ottomans attacked from two directions in the northwest, the troops of this protrusion would be completely surrounded.
Just looking at the enemy positions that had gradually shrouded in the falling twilight, Alexander never gave the order to retreat.
"Wait," Alexander said softly with a few unheard voices, "Ottomans stopped, don't you think it's a bit weird?"
The officers looked at Alexander with some consternation, while others looked at the opposite Ottoman position in a puzzled way.
The Ottoman army did stop continuing to advance deeper into the flank of Montina. They stopped about one-third of the distance from the right-wing Genoese, and the most advanced group of Musselim infantry began to carry the short halberds. Poke on the ground to establish a simple line of defense, while the brigade's Anatolian light cavalry could not stop Mercedes-Benz on both sides and the farther plains, seemingly looking for possible opportunities.
"The Ottomans were tired," an officer suddenly shouted in excitement. "They must have been exhausted enough to attack for so long. Seeing that our soldiers are so exhausted behind the fortifications, they must have been tired. "
The officer's judgment caused a burst of excitement from the Montina officers. They first whispered, and then their eyes turned to Alexander, who seemed to be always silent.
"Adult ..." Busako reminded softly, "Do we need to be ready to retreat?"
"Maybe we have more chances at night," a Genoese officer wondered. "The Ottomans are indeed very tired. Those Muslemim infantry can no longer lift their spirits even when they are close to us. If they wait until the day, Heihe maybe we have a chance to withdraw from the battle, at least we can build a more favorable front. "
"It is indeed the case, but if the Ottomans can be allowed to stretch their fronts longer, it might be better." Alexander finally opened his eyes, his eyes looking in the direction of the enemy's front, where it had fallen into haze. In the twilight, only some faintly visible shadows are still running and shaking "Only one night's chance, if tomorrow morning, maybe we really have no way out."
Speaking of which, Alexander's lips moved slightly, and said softly in a tone that only he could hear: "Gompatti, what are you doing."
Gompati walked anxiously outside the tent. He didn't know what happened to Alexander now, but his situation was not very good.
Just not far from him, two knights in armor and large armor-piercing swords around their waists stared at him, staring at him from under their helmets and hats. It can be seen that these two people obviously have no good feelings for him.
Gompati already knew from their badges that these two men were the men of Ladislas II.
Ladislas II expressed strong dissatisfaction and anger at Zepes ’s unauthorized departure from the city to meet the foreigners. He immediately sent his servant knight to challenge Zepes after hearing the news, but no When the messenger brought back the news, he sent a second messenger, and the person received an order to recall Sophia and Zepes to the castle together.
Ladislas II now has some regrets, he did not expect that girl would be so disobedient.
Now Zepez is instigating her to call the people of the city as a Greek princess to fight against the Ottomans with him, or simply to him, Ladislas II himself, and ironically, he is trying his best to give The girl was crowned "Greece Princess".
Ladislas II clearly could not accept this embarrassing result, and even worse, Zeppes ’attitude made it difficult for him to make a decision to prepare for negotiations with the Ottomans.
Some nobles who had already decided to support him became hesitant because of the obstruction and destruction of Zepes and his supporters, especially the intense emotions of the Bucharest people seemed to have had a big impact, and those who originally regarded Sophia as a savior The Greek nobles took the opportunity to incite ordinary people to fight against the Ottomans.
Some people have even blatantly shouted: the terrible slogan of "executors of surrender."
This made Ladislas II unbearable any longer. He was ready to take extreme measures to solve this farce when necessary. Although the number of troops owned by Zepes was not to be underestimated, the king believed that if he had The nobility for the rebels can quickly suppress the dissidents without preparation.
But Ladislas II did not expect that at this time, the army of the Earl of Montina had arrived outside Bucharest.
Now he had to deal with not only the disobedient nobles, but also an earl from Rome, which made Ladislas II feel at a loss.
He immediately sent two messengers in a row, hoping that the earl's man would convince him before seeing Zepes.
Now the two emissaries of the king were staring at Compati, seeming to be alert at all times that he might rush into the tent.
Gompati felt the strong hostility of the two men, and at the same time, because he was worried about Alexander's situation, he felt that every moment of waiting was so long.
When Ladislas II had a headache for the current situation, Cepes was not so relaxed, and it was even worse.
The sentiment of ordinary people in Bucharest is indeed incited, or it should be said that the incitement is a bit excessive. Nowadays, many people not only took up their weapons spontaneously, but some even constituted the City Self-Defense Force.
The Self-Defense Forces announced that they were only loyal to "Princess Sophia Alexandra Valleo", and the backbone of these Self-Defense Forces was the remnants of the Greek nobles.
Zeppes began to be overjoyed about the behavior of these people, but it didn't take long for him to have a headache.
Although those people were willing to join him in opposing the negotiations between Ladislas II and the Ottomans, they obviously did not want to obey his command. The main battle groups are all troubled internally and externally.
What made Zipes even more surprised was that Sophia seemed to have an unusual interest in the Earl of Montina, as she could see from the officer who was eager to see the Montina.
This made Cepes feel a vague crisis.
For Zepez, Sophia has become the key to his fight for the right to speak in Bucharest. At this time, Sophia suddenly showed interest in the Earl of Montina, which made Zepez a little uneasy.
Cepes tried to stop Sophia from meeting with the officer named Gompati, but what surprised him was that Sophia, who had always listened to him, suddenly became irritable.
At this time, Cepes even regretted welcoming the Compaqati into the city, but when the king's two envoys arrived one after another, he immediately realized that in addition to the Ottoman army outside the city, they also had to deal with the enemy.
"You can see that person," Zeppes finally said to Sophia, who was grumpy. "But I'm on the sidelines. You know that the Romans are very cunning. I'm afraid they might deceive you with lies."
Sophia tilted her head habitually and watched Zepes silent for a moment, then her neck moved slightly to make her head straight, and then nodded.
Because Sophia walked up to the city wall every day, Zeppes simply made a tent under the city wall.
In fact, he did more to worry about the possibility of being miscalculated once he returned to the castle. At this time, his relationship with Ladislas II was already extremely tense ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ neither side doubted Conflict may erupt at any time.
Gompati clearly felt the angry eyes of the two king's messengers when he entered the tent, but soon he forgot the eyes of the two men because he saw a girl who surprised him.
An extraordinarily gorgeous armor covers the girl's body. The gems and enamel ornaments on the armor look very expensive. Sway gently.
And when the girl stepped forward after seeing him, listening to the friction sound of the armor on her body, Comparti found with amazement that this body of armor, which can be said to be a work of art, was not just for viewing but Really genuine stuff.
Just somehow, Gumpati suddenly felt that the armor seemed familiar.
Then he quickly thought that the style of this pair of armor was exactly the one worn by Ruo Sha on the gold coins issued by Alexander.
Suddenly, Compatibi's eyes became strange.
