Eagle Byzantium

Second update

——————————

Just as the military servant shouted this, Sabina roared, ignoring the owner of the heavy armor, and jumped forward half a step, grabbing the head of the horse of the Tekpo mercenary on Gawain's left. Then the mercenary and his horse were hit by the lance that rushed sideways, and they rolled to the ground, and both the man and the horse were injured and killed on the spot!

The one who came sideways happened to be the cunning Raul. This was a common pincer attack tactic used by the Norman knights: Tancred rushed to the front to attract Gawain's attention, and then Raul quickly went back from the cliff to the side and took the opportunity to rush to hunt. Fortunately, the Tekpo mercenary on the left became a scapegoat, and Sabina was too smart, so Gawain escaped.

The horses neighed, Raul's horse head and Gawain's horse tail crossed each other vertically, and Tancred shouted loudly, pouring all his strength into the tip of his spear, occupying a favorable assassination point, and rushed over vigorously.

The Tekpo mercenary on the right bravely shot an arrow, hitting the kite shield in Tancred's left hand. The opponent slightly turned sideways, and the tip of the spear became lower, brushing along Gawain's right rib. Sabina seized this opportunity, accelerated suddenly, carrying her master and the ten-foot-long Byzantine lance, and stabbed Tancred's right shoulder.

The sound of explosion sounded again, and Tancred's right coat and chain mail armor were shattered everywhere. His boots with spurs, without stirrups, flew out backwards.

A piece of Gawain's right rib armor was scraped off. Even though it was just a scratch, the bone was almost broken with pain. He staggered forward for ten feet, and couldn't bear it anymore. He threw down the lance with a cracked end. Then in an instant, he saw Tancred, who had fallen to the ground, struggling to stand up, his face covered with blood!

"Good boy, become the dead soul under my sword. I hope to get your genes." Gawain was secretly happy. He quickly covered his painful ribs and struggled to get off the horse. His kite shield was still on his left shoulder. His right hand took out the Macedonian short halberd and quickly walked towards the unfortunate Tancred, who was facing away from him and still hanging his injured right arm, step by step, like a ferocious bear staring at its prey.

"Damn it, Tancred..." Raul, who rushed over, saw this scene and threw down his lance, and hurried to rescue Bohemond's nephew. At this time, Muzafiadin, a Turkic soldier who was newly recruited by Earl Gawain, held a spare lance and stabbed him with a round shield. Raul swung his sword and cut off the spear head. Then Raul slashed with his sword, causing Muzafiadin's lance to fall out of his hand. "Don't underestimate the old guy, Turkic stick!" Raul did not come to kill Muzafiadin, but turned around and rode towards the direction where Gawain and Tancred were.

Over there, the Tekopo mercenary drew his bow again and shot another arrow at Tancred. "Uh!" Tancred shouted angrily, turned around and blocked the arrow with his shield. Then Gawain rushed over from the side, and a sword came with a gust of wind. Gawain quickly shrank back and avoided it in a panic.

Then, Raul's horse head pressed over, and in the moment of crossing, the Tekopo man who was about to shoot the third arrow at Tancred was hit on the head by the weapon in Raul's hand, and fell off the horse and died.

There was a clang, it was the sound of the chain shaking. Before Gawain could see clearly, Raul waved the weapon in his hand in reverse. The black shadow jumped over with the warhorse and attacked Gawain without saying anything. After a muffled sound, the front half of Gawain's kite shield in front was smashed to pieces, leaving only a handle in his hand.

Raul and the horse just rushed over, but Tancred rushed over like a bleeding lion. He woke up and got angry. His injury intensified his fighting spirit. He raised the shield directly with one hand, without offensive weapons, but came towards Gawain, trying to knock Gawain down!

The two Normans, one horse, and Gawain, soon formed a triangle and fought like a whirlwind!

Gawain also threw down his broken shield in anger, threw his halberd to his left hand, and then drew out his phosphorescent sword with his right hand. With a plop, he hooked Tancred's kite shield with his halberd and pulled it down. Tancred also exerted his divine power and held the handle tightly, preventing Gawain's halberd from moving. The two wrestled with each other, and their four feet almost stirred up a pit in the sand.

Then, Gawain swung his sword with his right hand again, and Tancred simply knelt down, covering his body with his shield diagonally, and blocked this slash again - Gawain's halberd and sword both slashed into the opponent's shield. After a loud shout, the sword and halberd moved, and Tancred's shield was also broken into pieces.

Tancred was kicked to the ground by Gawain, and at this moment Raul also rushed over, waving the chain weapon in his hand: Gawain could see clearly now that it was a copper caltrop with an iron handle and swung by an iron chain.

Gawain, who gave up on harvesting Tancred's life, rolled sideways, and the bronze caltrops passed over his head and smashed over. At this time, five or six Norman knights who had rushed to the battle group later also rushed towards him with spears and swords.

A rain of arrows flew, and two Norman knights immediately rolled off their horses. It was Diogenes who brought dozens of organized Tekopo mercenaries, who also rushed on horseback from both wings. They did not go forward to fight, but circled and shot arrows from a distance, posing a threat to the Normans.

Muzafiadin rushed over, picked up the Norman lance thrown by Raul, and blocked Gawain.

In the end, Raul lifted the half-dead Tancred, put him on the horse's back, and retreated towards the Cadmia Castle.

At the same time, Sabina ran over, Gawain sat on it, and with the nimble tribesmen, they threw away all the baggage and supplies and retreated towards the city of Corinth.

This small-scale encounter ended just like that.

Ingrina stood at the gate of the courtyard, covering her mouth in horror, watching Gawain being helped in with a pale face. Even though he was not seriously injured, she was still afraid to see a man go out to fight and bleed. In order to show the minimum level of care, Ingrina knelt beside Gawain who was lying on the small couch, helped Taitsius to quickly remove the holy armor of the Earl Archon, opened the inner jacket, and saw the bruises. "Ah, ah, ah!" Gawain shouted with sweat all over his head. It was Taitsius who was pinching his wound.

A correct version in 16-9 Book Bar!

"It's not a big deal, no bones were injured." Soon, General Nose Nose made a judgment.

Ingridna was relieved. She hurriedly asked the servants to help Earl Gawain bandage the wound. Then Gawain, who was sitting on the seat, spoke, "There are very few Normans."

"Yes, there are less than a hundred people, and they are accompanied by a few auxiliary soldiers." Diogenes also answered affirmatively.

"What do you think we should do? Today, the Norman leader is in a worse situation than me. I'm afraid he won't be able to fight for several months. That young man." Gawain grinned and laughed, which surprised Ingridna who was standing on the side.
