Eagle Flag of Epirus

　　 The mighty knight army crossed the street, and Justinian, who was far away, heard the sound of rolling iron hoofs. At this time, a white light appeared in the east, and the dawn was getting closer and closer. A night of fierce fighting made everyone exhausted, but the Greek Resistance Army did not dare to rest, because once the sky was completely lit, they would have nowhere to hide. Immediately everyone speeded up their pace.

　　 "It seems that they have finally taken the bait." said Vasily, who was running wild with Justinian on his back, but if they were still some distance away from Theodosius Square, they would fall short if they were caught up.

　　 "But it seems to be a little fast..." Justinian couldn't help but feel that his face was a little dark. These Western European knight masters were really not simple-minded, and they chased him without the slightest doubt. Instead, he was caught off guard. "First speed up and act according to the original plan!"

Vasily nodded and could only do this. They were simply vulnerable to head-to-head. They ordered the soldiers to use the shelves of the surrounding shops as barricades on the streets. They could only use this method to delay some time. .

　　Behind them, Bohemond led his most elite knights to directly throw the large forces behind. In his opinion, the resistance army of more than one hundred men is a chicken and shingle in front of the lance. The superiority of the cavalry over the infantry can be said to be completely overwhelming. When the Emperor Durazo Alexey I encountered the Norman knight who charged with a gun for the first time, even the brave Varangian Guard was defeated. It can be said that Bohemond was completely confident and didn't realize that Justinian really prepared a suit and waited for these Latins to get in.

"Your Excellency, are we too anxious, the troops behind have not caught up yet, can we wait for the big troops to follow us before continuing to pursue?" At this moment, a knight next to Bohemond hesitated to ask The cavalry troops were divided into two groups, and the infantrymen were also far behind. Bohemond was surrounded by only the first two hundred elite knights at this time. It can be said that they are the backbone of this army. If they encounter an ambush, they will undoubtedly. Caused a huge blow. Such a risky action had to make the decision of HRH Bohemond is correct.

But this undoubtedly angered Bohemond, "If you do anything like you, you can't do anything at both ends of the mouse. Today I will never let these mice escape into the cave again, if anyone dares to retreat. Just go back to me."

　　 The man’s roar silenced everyone. Bohemond’s meaning couldn’t be clearer. Either move forward or become a running coward, which is unacceptable to these knights.

　　 "Yes, Lord Baron."

"Very well, everyone-charge with me!" Bohemond immediately raised his arms, and his inherent awareness of the weak combat effectiveness of the Greek army made him completely arrogant, thinking that when his cavalry charged, no one would be able to charge. withstand.

　　 Wherever he went, the roadblock that Justinian arranged was directly picked up by a lance and could not stop a single bit.

　　 Soon the powerful heavy cavalry unit spotted the roaring figure of the Greek Resistance Army, which at first appeared to be untrained.

　　 And Bohemond, who saw the opponent's trail, also showed a ferocious laugh at this time, as if the opponent was already the fish on the knife and let him slaughter. "Everyone lined up and prepared to charge, kill all of them without leaving a prisoner! This is a shock to these Greeks." The hatred between the Greeks and the Italians has already deepened, and there is no mercy in his eyes.

　　 I saw an army of Latins coming out along the street, and then gathered into a huge formation, slamming against Justinian and the others like a hurricane. It's just that Bohemond hasn't immediately ordered the attack. The front is the flag bearer holding the flag, encouraging morale, and the knight behind has already clenched the spear in his hand and is ready to go into the next battle, ready to kill at any time.

The Greek resistance forces reluctantly moved closer together, raising their spears unevenly, but they did not pose a threat in the knight’s eyes, because the iron spear of that length was not long enough to pierce the knight’s horse and was pierced by the spear. What's more, how can a group of militiamen face the cavalry charge without breaking apart?

Bohemond looked at the mobs mockingly, and still did not launch an attack. In his opinion, unnecessary damage would be caused on the streets, and continued psychological pressure on the Resistance would make it easier to defeat them in one blow. Formation.

　　 approached step by step, and the resistance army also retreated step by step, only a few steps away from Theodosius Square.

　　 "Don't panic everyone, do you understand?" Vasily lowered his voice and ordered his subordinates to maintain the formation. This is already the limit. If the Latins initiate an attack at this time, they will inevitably collapse.

　　 And watching all this, Justinian was so nervous that he couldn't help holding his breath, and finally led these troublesome guys over. The other party was even bigger than himself in order to catch up with the cavalry. But he wouldn't think it easy because of this. These well-equipped knights are the core force of the Western European army, and they cannot be dealt with by his militia. But at this time, the opponent did not launch an attack. There was only one reason that could be explained-the opponent was also waiting for the best time.

　　 And when the Greeks entered Theodosius Square, Bohemond finally decided to order the Cavaliers to charge after seeing the open area, and Justinian also realized this.

　　 almost at the same time--

　　 "Strive to attack, punishing God's punishment on the treachery Greek heresy, and present the gospel to God!" Bohemond shouted angrily.

　　 And Justinian was lying on Vasily's back and immediately issued an order: "Everyone spread out and immediately go to the original position!"

　　 Bohemond personally drove the horse in front, and rushed forward first, inspiring all the knights to launch a torrential charge, and the iron hoof stepped on as if the sky broke and the earth cracked. However, the Greek Resistance did not fall apart because of this. They immediately dispersed their formation and retreated to Theodosius Square, but Bohemond did not pay attention to this at all. Instead, they thought this was an excellent opportunity to defeat the opponent.

　　 The knights behind him also think so, fighting on a flat ground frontally, the cavalry is overwhelming, not to mention that they are elite knights.

Everyone didn’t realize that Justinian was waiting for this moment. The scattered infantry entered the center of the square and quickly formed a team as they were trained before. They came together to form a thin wall of people~www.wuxiaspot .com~ Although Bohemond was slightly startled when he saw this scene, he thought it was a dying struggle and did not order the troops to slow down. Instead, he urged the horses to rush towards the Resistance. The Latin knights in heavy armor didn't think that these militiamen could hurt themselves, and they threw themselves at the Greeks.

The attention was completely focused on the Greeks themselves. In addition, it was still dark, but the Latin knights did not notice when there were some short haystacks on the empty square in front of the resistance. This was Justin. Surprise for them.

The moment the cavalry rushed in front of him, the torch in Justinian’s hand lit the haystack, and the haystack that had been poured over the Greek fire ignited a raging fire that was as high as one person in an instant. The Latin knight who was caught off guard sat in front. The horse that got off was frightened and jumped up and was interrupted to charge, and some knights even fell directly off the horse. Even good horses' primitive fear of flames made them panic. And this gave Justinian enough opportunity to give these Latins a fatal blow.

"Damn what is this?" Bohemond, who was startled by the fire, was also stunned by the sudden scene, and when he saw the brass siphon decorated with the dragon head in the hands of the Greeks behind the flames, he Finally noticed something bad. Because he had seen this thing before, when sitting on the Venetian warship, the Greeks tried to use it to light their ship.

"Greek fire, **** it!" exclaimed, but Bohemond realized it was too late at this time. The spray device made by the principle of expansion force and water pressure shot out the burning Greek fire. In an instant, a burning dragon swallowed the bewildered Latin knights and their horses.
