Eagle Flag of Epirus

The battle line that stretched for several miles on the Macedonian plains suddenly reversed with the Teutonic Knights' defiance.

In the face of the charge initiated by hundreds of knights, the unprepared Dukas family's army retreated across the board. The fierce battle between the various parties has exhausted the soldiers, and these hundreds of heavy cavalry The horror given to the Epirus people by their sudden defection directly shocked the exhausted people.

The gunshields on the flanks first started to escape, but the price they paid for their unwillingness to be ghosts under the horseshoe was to expose the light infantry in the center square directly under the long spears of the Teutonic knights.

"Clean up everything!" Count Maximilian in the barrel helmet gave a short order in German, so that the knights under his command did not have to hesitate. They only needed to clean up everything on the battlefield in front of them like an iron plow, without caring about the captives.

I saw the fluttering Iron Cross banner, and the Teutonic heavy cavalry entered the Epirus infantry formation without any barriers. The poor archers and javelinmen had no heavy infantry cover, and they could only discard their weapons and flags, and went everywhere. Running around, but after dispersing in such a formation, in the eyes of the Teutonics, they were prey hunted at will. I saw the knight's spear shuttled through the crowd, passing through body after body, and flying flesh and blood. Epirus' rout army was like a cropped crop in a field, tumbled under the horse's hooves and in a pool of blood.

It wasn't until the heavy cavalry of Epirus came to kill that the Teutonic massacre was barely prevented. However, at this time Epirus' battlefield had been smashed to pieces, and the dead and wounded soldiers fell in pieces. Next, the horrible howling sounded endlessly. This tragic scene even shaken the heart of the Dukas family's army. The generals of Epirus, no matter how unscrupulous, have ordered the retreat, and now they have no time to ask their emperor.

However, in addition to the defiant Teutonic Knights, the Moria Army who followed up behind to launch a counterattack also moved forward at this time, and Justinian seized the opportunity to immediately order an attack. The unorganized Epirus army was easily divided, surrounded and annihilated, and the Teutonics did not fight with the heavy cavalry of the Dukas family at all, and directly joined the "meat grinder" against the infantry. In this scene, both sides The cooperation is like a skilled butcher holding a knife in both hands and operating on the cutting board to cut meat and remove bones.

"For Master Justinian!" Not only the Albanian mountain people under Bogdani's command, Focas's Modun Infantry Regiment and the Mystras New Army all attacked and launched a counterattack. They fought with the black fox. The flags are gathered together for signs, and they are gathered beside Justinian on the battlefield to attack the enemy in front of them. All the actions are as if the clouds are flowing together. The Morias cooperate and support each other, and the Epirus people who have lost their ability to resist each other have become their disadvantages at this time-they have no way to regain them. Organized, it is impossible to escape from this battlefield.

As Justinian declared that those who lay down their weapons would not die, more and more Epirus soldiers chose to surrender.

"Do not-!"

Seeing the disintegration of the Epirus army, which was originally superior, the Emperor Mikhail Dukas, who was commanding from the rear, could not save the defeat even if he was torn apart. Because the 30,000 troops under his hand are spreading out on this stretch of the front and fighting on their own, and this is the result of his previous efforts to make full use of his military strength—each corps is under the independent command of its own generals, and only needs He obeyed his overall arrangement, but now the Teutonic eyes severely cut the connection between him and the front generals.

This turned Mikhail Dukas's army into a headless giant. Faced with the chopping block and warhammer composed of Moria's army and Latin cavalry, the soldiers of Epirus were defeated without any suspense. But there was something worse, when the emperor still hoped that the Bulgarians and Serbs would support him, the scout's rush of reports completely shattered his hope.

The Serbian Legion was defeated by the Morians and the Teutonic Knights and fled to the northwest. For some reason, the Bulgarians directly withdrew from the battlefield and abandoned Mikhail Dukas.

Regardless of the requests of his ministers, Emperor Dukas, who had fallen into madness, decided to fight himself.

Seeing that Mikhail had lost his sanity, the ministers and guards hurriedly knelt down and cried before driving, begging him to think twice.

"Your Majesty! Let's evacuate to a safe place first. Don't be arrogant, or we will fall into Justinian's tricks! As long as we return to Rusny, we still have a chance. Don't be impulsive now!" Even the Macedonian Patriarch Eustaceus bitterly persuaded that if there was anything wrong with the emperor, let alone the entire army, even the heads of Epirus would have lost their lives here.

Reluctant to accept the courtiers' plea, looking at the miserable Emperor Mikhail in front of him, he could only sigh with a long sigh and ordered the Royal Front Guard to guard himself and the courtiers to withdraw to the northwest. UU reading www.uukanshu.cOM

With a plop, the last Venetian on the deck broke his neck and fell at Yaroslav’s feet. And the Rose man contemptuously kicked the corpse into the sea, completely deviating from the previous respectful appearance. After eliminating the Venetian watchers here, they regained control of the canopy ship.

Yaroslav looked far away from the coast. Although he couldn’t see the result of the melee under the city of Thessaloniki at this time, they didn’t need to stay in this place of right and wrong. Once the Venetians knew what was happening here, it was very easy. They will soon be overwhelmed, and they will not be able to escape by then.汜 minus bⅹшⅹ●С〇汜

Everyone knew this, but no one went to untie the canvas, including Yaroslav who led them.

Finally, someone broke the silence, and a strong man in the crowd came out and said, "Don’t hesitate, Yaroslav, let’s go and rescue Igor right away! It’s that simple. The kid on the Black Sea saved all of us. Human life, this is what we owe him!"

As soon as this statement came out, the other Ross sailors also stopped silently expressing their agreement. Although they came from the cold Northland, the blood in their bodies was warm. The shared sufferings over the past few years made them unable to accept abandoning themselves. 'S partner, not to mention that Igor itself is the backbone that connected them together.

Seeing the resolute attitude of his subordinates, Yaroslav also let go of his worries, nodded, and then ordered: "Sailing, let's save the kid Igor!"
