Conquer the Dawn of Heaven
Vol 5 Chapter 102: Great Battle (15)
The battle was fierce. From the swamp to the edge of the wetlands, to the farther hills, Xi Sugu felt that every inch of land he could see was burning, bleeding, and fierce fighting.
This scene made Xi Sugu feel a little strange and seem familiar.
He remembers very clearly that before he was ordered to come to the Balkans, he also experienced such a battle in Egypt. It was the experience of fighting the Mamluks. His experience in Egypt made him feel that he was away from hell. For the most recent test, he finally left from there, but even then he would never forget those terrible past events.
Compared with the war against Mamluk, the Europeans can say that he felt disappointed and disappointed him, especially the Roy ?, before Xi Sugu even thought that he might have a good fight with the Balkan hero, but What he did not expect was that Roy? Would suddenly announce his surrender to the Sudan. Just in the Susu Valley and many Ottoman generals did not understand what was happening, they were suddenly told that they had conquered the remaining half of Bosnia.
Although this is indeed an exciting thing, as a soldier, Xi Sugu cannot help but say that he is a little disappointed.
But now it is regrettable that his absolute self standing here can be compensated. The performance of the opposite Count Montina surprised him, and even Xi Sugu was thinking if they encountered such European nobles and troops next. Or maybe they should in turn miss the good days where Roua often appears.
In any case, the Ottoman offensive is now gradually becoming more favorable. If you do n’t mention the Balkans who suddenly appeared in the swamps, it may be said that the situation is developing in their favor.
The sudden appearance of the Balkan Regiment caused the Ottoman infantry who had just seen the dawn of victory to suffer setbacks. This not only surprised the Ottoman commander, but also surprised Xi Sugu who received the news.
Xi Sugu has always believed that the Alexander Conference arranged the fierce Balkans on the flanks as an important force to collide with him head-on, but he did not expect the Balkans to suddenly appear on the side of the swamp that had been abandoned by both parties.
What made Sioux Valley even more concerned was the defeat of the Ottoman army on the marshland. In addition to him, it was the Ottoman fleet that was attacking on the Dembvica River.
According to Sisu Valley ’s plan, the best result of his attack on the swamps was to expel Montina ’s army from the half of the swamps they controlled, and then he could take advantage of the pursuit of the enemy while he was the only one on the west bank of Demwica. Launching a siege along the river fortress, as long as the fortress is captured or trapped, it is equivalent to clearing the road to Bucharest for the Ottoman fleet going upstream.
Xi Sugu's plan is not perfect, but he never pursues the comprehensiveness of the plan, but only looks at whether the plan is feasible and what kind of results it will bring.
Xi Sugu believes that his plan can succeed, because he has mastered the fatal weakness of Montina ’s army after the first war of the Alger River, that is, this army and many rely on the monarch ’s personal courage and means to be strong or decline, then When designating the plan, Xi Sugu judged that Alexander would decide where to place such a fierce army as the Balkans because of his location.
Because of the influence of this idea, Xi Sugu put Muslemim infantry and almost all Anatolian light cavalry into the swamp flanks.
He hoped to attract the attention of Montina's army through a fierce attack, and it would be better if he could attract some of Alexander's defensive troops originally placed on the swamp.
When it became known that the Muselim infantry attacked the Genoese, Xi Sugu's attention was immediately attracted by the battle on the swamp. When it was heard that the Muselim infantry had opened the road with his life after paying a huge price, Xi Sugu even smiled on the battlefield.
But then the appearance of the Balkans suddenly destroyed his good mood.
The Ottoman infantry who was hit by the headache was hurried back to the terrible death zone a little bit, because too many people gathered together, many people unfortunately fell into a bottomless quagmire, and more people were wailing in despair among their companions In the rescue, they retreated helplessly. Although they did not fail, they must retreat at least to reorganize the attack if they want to re-launch.
Xi Sugu was a little stunned when he heard the news. He was not unacceptable of setbacks and failures, but was simply surprised by how the Balkans appeared in the marshland.
This made Xi Sugu realize that the situation might get worse, because if the two fortresses along the river could not be besieged in time, it would inevitably pose a threat to the troop transporters that were moving up the river.
Xi Sugu immediately issued an order. Instead of urging the commander of the complex attacking the marshland to immediately launch an attack, he ordered a more violent assault on the Agri Phalanx.
"Let the Earl of Montina turn his troops over," this is Xi Sugu's plan. Perhaps the enemy on the opposite side knows his intentions, but Xi Sugu believes that as long as his offense is enough to threaten and even disintegrate the enemy's formation, regardless Whether it is to save lives or to defend the front, the enemies on the opposite side will have to be forced to mobilize the defenders of the swamp to support them.
"Look at who we can persevere." Xi Sugu, who had always been calm in warfare, showed a rare emotion. He felt that the opposite Count Montina was like his destined enemy. The last time the Alger River They played indiscriminately, but Xi Sugu was more concerned about this.
Because he is very clear that the opponent's strength is obviously not as much as his, which makes Xi Sugu feel that it is enough for that person to brag for too long.
Under the urging of Xi Sugu, the fierce offensive was fully launched on the entire front. Every place was fighting, and everyone was involved in the madness of killing or being killed.
Alexander was also looking at the entire battlefield, and there was no expression on his face. It seemed that this fierce battle at this moment had nothing to do with him.
In fact, at this time, his heart was not calm at all. When the Ottomans started a more fierce attack, he knew that the enemy on the opposite side had already seen through his plan.
Alexander looked in the direction of the marshland, and then he gave Busaco the order that had always followed him.
"Let the hunting guards all attack."
There was a look on Busako's face. He knew what this command meant. Looking at the small number of hunting guards behind him, Busako whispered a little hesitantly: "But lord, if we do not have a reserve army like this . "
Alexander also looked behind him, and then showed a helpless smile.
"Do you think it is necessary to leave a reserve army at this time?" Alexander whispered after seeing Busaco's worried expression, "I know what I am doing, and I will not do stupid things."
Although there was a trace of unbelief in his eyes, Busako still whispered orders, and he tried to make recommendations to Alexander again, but this time he only said: "Adult, if the situation is not good, I may be rude to you."
Alexander looked at Busaco, and then looked at the few hunting guards staring at him with green eyes, and could only smile slightly: "Busak, I said that I would not do stupid things, believe me. If I need to, my first consideration will only be the fate of my army. "
Busako murmured, it sounded like something like "I hope so", but he never told the hunting guard to be ready to take Alexander away.
It seems to have continued for a long time from a long time ago, but in fact the sun has just climbed to the point almost overhead.
The Ottomans have been repelled several times. Obviously, the pagans are not a group of monsters that are not afraid of life and death. When the casualties reach a certain level, fear and exhaustion will make the bravest soldiers also become heavy under the feet. Then, unconsciously, he lost his keen response, and was stabbed to the ground by a spear that he stabbed from somewhere.
A warrior with a legendary experience may be killed by a newcomer on the battlefield for the first time. The famous aristocrat may die in the hands of civilians who were once regarded as wild grass under his feet. At this moment, the battlefield makes everyone seem to Have become truly equal.
A cavalry rushed across a quagmire, and the muddy water brought by the horseshoes kept falling on the ground, and the sweat flowing from the horse's body could not help splashing everywhere.
"Master! Where is Lord Earl ?!" the cavalry shouted far away. When he saw the flag, he immediately drove the reins toward Alexander, regardless of the guard's obstruction.
Busako's hand held the musket grip in his waist. As long as Alexander ordered him to shoot, although the opponent's speed was very fast, as an excellent hunter, he believed he must be hit.
"It's the man over the fortress?" Alexander saw the origin from the cavalry's clothing. He waved to Busako. He looked at the sweaty cavalry and whispered after the hunting guard brought the man over. what happened?"
"Adult ~"
The cavalry immediately said loudly, but he was covered by the mouth of Busako who had already been given a hint by Alexander. At the same time his face was stuck on the panic-stricken soldier. He whispered: "If you don't want to lose your head, whisper, tell the adult what happened."
"It's the Ottomans," the cavalry didn't know whether it was scared or it was not good at all, and it seemed weird. "The Ottoman fleet came from the mouth of the Dembrica, and they are now not far from us."
"Is it, the fleet is coming?" Alexander didn't seem too surprised. In fact, when the Ottomans attacked Bucharest from the north and the south with a pincer attack, many people in Bucharest City realized that they might face the first time this time. The siege of Bucharest was different. Especially people like Ladislas II and Zeppes who have farther vision are vaguely aware that the Ottomans may have a much bigger appetite than they guessed.
What will it look like after capturing Bucharest?
As long as you think about it, you can guess.
With the capture of Bucharest, the entire Principality of Wallachia will definitely fall into the hands of the Ottomans. If there is enough ambition, the Ottoman army can continue to go north after the rest of Bucharest. Their goal can be Hungary, Poland, or even It ’s Vienna.
If there is no such plan, with the capture of Bucharest, the Sudanese army can also continue to advance eastward, and while completely occupying Bulgaria like a wall of grass, it can also threaten Moldova, which has just been forced to sign a vassal relationship with it. .
By that time, the entire Mediterranean East and almost the entire Black Sea coast will be under the control of the Ottoman Empire.
Such a result can be enough to excite anyone even if you think about it, and Bayesert II seems to be preparing to make this possible.
The Ottoman army will not only attack the lonely city from both the north and south, but will take the opportunity to cross the Dembvica River and advance towards the deep areas of Wallachia.
Alexander also guessed this possibility, but the Ottomans made him somewhat surprised at this cost.
"Can the fortress along the river block the Ottoman fleet?" Alexander asked. He did not know the situation of the fortress. Although he heard some news from the Greeks, it was not very clear.
Now it seems that with the fierce offensive of the Ottomans, if the Montina army can persevere, maybe the fortresses can still persevere, but once surrounded, facing the threats from both the shore and the river, those fortresses may not be able to hold on.
Sure enough, Alexander's question quickly flashed a trace of panic on the soldier's face, although soon Alexander saw the hesitation and uneasiness.
"Tell me how long can you persist?" Alexander now felt that it might be more appropriate to ask.
"We can hold on, but you know this is not something that can be done only by desperation," the soldier said, and finally, under the eyes of Alexander, he said in a controversial tone, "If it is surrounded We ca n’t hold on, after all, our family is still in Bucharest. "
"Yeah," Alexander no longer ignored the soldier. He looked on the battlefield. At this time, a new round of Ottoman attacks had begun. Seeing that the distance was still a gray faint shadow, Alexander gave the order. "Go Tell Gompati to make sure he sticks to the swamp, "said Alexander, and said softly," I hope things are not so bad. "
The Ottoman fleet only fully entered the mouth of the Dembrica River at noon. This is because according to the hydrological characteristics of the Dembrica River, this time is almost the time of high tide.
The Ottoman ships were not very draught, but because of the too many supplies and soldiers they carried, each ship was crushed to death, and the slightly larger waves of the river would directly hit the deck.
However, the Demwica River is worthy of being the largest confluent river on the lower Danube, and the wide river mouth even makes the scenery on both sides look somewhat blurred.
The Ottoman fleet moved northwards. Although the speed of the fleet slowed down a lot, but with the harsh order of the Ottoman Navy Governor, the war slaves on the boat were desperately rowing under the threat of leather whips and scimitars. With the oars, the fleet went up against the unstoppable stance and took Bucharest straight.
As the Ottoman fleet approached against the river, a small group of people on the shore watched them coldly.
George Liluo's black eyes that fell deep into his eyes were indifferent. Unlike other companions who saw the Crescent Banner of the Ottomans and could not control their anger immediately because of their anger, George Liluo would change his hatred towards the Ottoman Into destruction and killing.
After breaking up with Alexandria, the summoned Greeks went south along the east bank of the Dembrica, and under the leadership of George Liluo, the Greek civilian army of more than 700 people directly crossed the other on the east bank of the river. A fortress didn't stop until it was near the estuary.
However, Bodped, another leader of the Greeks, did not follow them south. He took more than 100 people in the fortress called Pletvi, and the fort's defender clearly had support for this time. The army was very happy when the accident arrived.
The people of George Liluo did not harass the Ottomans, and in fact they could do nothing, because they did not project weapons remotely. Will be attacked by artillery from the ship.
The artillery mounted on the ship by the Ottomans did not pose much threat to the people of George Liluo on the shore, regardless of its power or range, but when the news reached the Pletvi fortress, it caused a wave of tension.
This is because the artillery may not pose a great threat to people on the shore far away, but it is more than enough to deal with the Plutovi Fortress or the water gate of Bucharest City.
So when George Liluo took his men to Pletvi and tried to participate in the interception along the river before the Ottomans arrived, a fierce debate was also under way in Pletvi.
The Pletvi people were frightened by the Ottoman army, especially after hearing that the Ottomans also launched a massive attack on the west bank of the river, the Pletvi people began to discuss whether they could resist Ottoman. The offensive of man is whether it should retreat to Bucharest while the enemy has not yet come to abandon the fortress.
"No one ever thought that the Ottomans would attack from the downstream. Let ’s see what we all have. A few old artillery, hundreds of soldiers who were not prepared at all, and us who were exiled here because they were not valued. The little nobleman who came ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Pletvi can't keep it. "
It was n’t anyone else who made this desperate speech first, it was Pletvi ’s defender, and under his unscrupulous clamor, the Pletvi people were even more talked about.
Until Bodped, who had been watching, stood up, there seemed to be different views to say, which naturally attracted the attention of the fort defender.
"Do you have anything to say, General?" Shou Jiang frowned and asked the old man who looked more like a scholar than a soldier.
"Actually nothing, I just think there is a better way," Bodped smiled.
"There is nothing else, either retreat or die." The defender said dissatisfiedly. "I will not take my people around like you, I just want to go back to Bucharest."
Bodped shook his head disapprovingly: "There is still a way."
With that said, this kindly old man who looked like a scholar suddenly pulled out his short sword from the waist, and stabbed into the defender's stomach fiercely and mercilessly!
