Eagle Byzantium

Of course, this gentleman is undoubtedly Sigma, who is the leader of the armored cavalry. He was originally a wandering knight waiting for punishment, but now he serves the Seleucid army for money and glory.

Under the bright sunshine, Sigma, who is usually unruly and addicted to gambling, can carry heavy and hot armor on the battlefield, holding the battle flag in one hand and the hammer in the other, stepping on the shaky trench bridge planks and marching forward bravely. Fortunately, this group of armored cavalry received instructions from Walter Sansavall in advance, and the horse armor, skirt armor and greaves on the cavalry were reduced, so that they were much lighter when running. Otherwise, Sigma's charge would most likely cause the horse's hooves to break the wooden planks and he would fall into the trench.

"What a great charge!" Although the groups of Gimages soldiers were dissatisfied with Sigma and other armored cavalrymen who arrogantly rushed in front of them, they couldn't help but cheer when they saw the majestic appearance of their own armored cavalrymen charging. Their fighting spirit and sense of security reached the peak. They prepared their bows and swords and waited for the order of their flag officers.

"Brother, let's charge too." At this moment, another young cavalryman Nexus Ducas saw Sigma galloping to the defense of the city and shouted to his brother beside him. Gaia did not hesitate and immediately pulled the bridle, holding the axe for fighting in his right hand, and Nexus, who was holding a round shield and a fighting spear, shouted "Long live the purple princess, long live the Virgin Mary, Hallelujah!" He rushed into the ranks of the rest of the armored cavalrymen and infantrymen, and also crossed the shaking plank bridge and rushed to the bottom of the city.

At this moment, Gawain stood in front of the guards and two heralds under the Grand Plane Cannon, furious, pointing at the two Ducas brothers who charged without authorization and caused the subsequent infantry teams to waver and hesitate, "I think the Calegos family will really be cut off under Fort Alaman!" After the voice was finished, Wright nervously pinched the corner of his clothes, thinking about how to evade this matter (because he was a shrewd man, knowing that this group of lawless armored cavalry were the princess's men), while the chief herald Andeodate recorded expressionlessly, and the little sunfish was full of indifference.

On the battlefield, Walter saw the two Ducas brothers rushing out, and shouted a few times with dissatisfaction and concern, and had no choice but to drive the horse to follow them, which caused a great chain reaction: almost all the armored cavalry, from various plank bridges, launched a charge in advance, and the neighing of people and horses was like a storm, sweeping towards the fortress.

Several brave Calegos private soldiers suddenly jumped out of the outer defense wall of the east gate of the fortress, from the battle sheds and earth ramparts that had been destroyed by the large Plani cannon. They were indignant at Seven's tragic death, and they roared and jumped out, trying to resist Sigma, who was rushing in the front like a monster.

Sigma's contemptuous laughter was almost transmitted through the visor. He saw two guards coming out of the ruins of the side defense wall at the same time. One crouched forward with a shining battle axe in his hand, and the other stood on the earth wall, pulling the bowstring for covering the killing. In the whirlwind of dust stirred up by the horse's hooves, Sigma threw the mace in his hand horizontally, smashing the enemy soldier on the earth wall with his bow and face, and then lowered his waist slightly and rushed forward for a few steps on his warhorse. As a result, before the axeman could throw the battle axe in his hand, he was violently hit by the armored warhorse, rolled to the ground, and then his internal organs were trampled everywhere.

At this moment, a guard who had been lurking for a long time suddenly rushed out from behind the ruins of the other side defense wall. He held a spear and wore a cloak to cover his body, and stabbed directly at Sigma. Sigma also grasped the spear with the battle flag and stabbed at him alternately. The guard's spearman was stabbed in the abdomen, and due to the inertia of Sigma's horse, he flew backwards to the low wall, blood splattered everywhere, and rolled to the ground and died. The spear he stabbed on Sigma's horse armor was a completely inferior "Alaman-made" product. The spear shaft was hastily made of caltrop wood, and the spear tip and its sleeve were also cut very small due to rush work and convenience of carrying. Such a spear stabbed on the solid armor, and it immediately bent and burst, exploding into "flying flowers" of wood chips in front of Sigma's eyes, and could not cause any harm to the cavalry on horseback.

That is to say, within a few seconds, Sigma, the armored cavalryman who rushed to the front, slaughtered three infantrymen who were ambushed behind the defense wall in advance, without suffering any damage himself. This is the significance of his role as the "pioneer of the battle". The small-scale death battle just now, in full view of the soldiers of both sides, clearly demonstrated the gap in equipment and combat skills between the soldiers of Seleucia and Calegos. This also vividly and shockingly told all the soldiers still guarding the city: Despair, under the crushing of the armored cavalry, unless you surrender.

Three hundred "killing toys" of Anna, they often have to be equipped with five slaves each, and they also have to prepare a considerable amount of excellent horse and man armor. To feed this small cavalry group, it takes almost 1,500 or even 2,000 infantrymen, and at this moment, their performance really shows that it is worth the money.

More of Calegos's soldiers came around, Sigmar held his horse steady, his body covered with arrows that had shot through his armor, stabbing left and right with the spear in his hand, not losing out at all. Then the two brothers Ducas came, one swinging his axe and stabbing, the other holding a short spear and stabbing, killing all the guards in front of the defensive wall.

The morale of Fort Alaman collapsed in an instant: when a guard lost his will, abandoned his post, and cried as he climbed up the rubble and bricks that were blown down by the big Plani gun, many soldiers and citizens on the top of the city, regardless of the danger, extended their hands to help him. As a result, Sigma first planted the battle flag in the ground, then supported the saddle with both hands, stepped around with his left foot, jumped to the ground, and calmly pulled out the battle flag, followed the guard and chased up, and then shouted. The guard shuddered all over, like a rabbit stared at by a ferocious lion, and turned around involuntarily, facing Sigma obediently - the latter held the flag spear level, stretched it out steadily, and stabbed it into the throat of the guard, and just like killing an animal to be slaughtered, he killed the other party arrogantly.

Then Sigmar, holding the spear blade dripping with blood, slowly, slowly stepped over the corpses of the guards and the rubble, and approached the top of the city. Someone shouted, and all the soldiers and armed citizens on the top of the city collapsed. Facing the only armored cavalryman Sigma, they did not dare to raise their weapons, but fled along the battle path.

Soon, Sigmar stood alone on the top of the city, wearing heavy armor and looking around. He inserted the flagpole beside him, and the portrait flag of Saint Theodore soon fluttered above the city of Alaman. Everyone in the field saw it, and the cry of killing shook the sky in an instant.
