The Rise of the European Emperor

"The reinforcements are coming!" Janus shouted excitedly. Because he knew that when the reinforcements came, he didn't have to die.

It's not that he is unwilling to surrender, but that in Europe, surrender is also very important. If it is a national war, the officers surrender to the enemy country, nothing at all. Because the opposite is also a big noble. It is an unspoken rule for nobles to surrender and spend money to redeem themselves.

However, there is one situation where one cannot surrender, and that is—to face a traitor. Because once surrendering to a traitor, it is equivalent to joining the ranks of rebellion. In such a situation, his own monarch would not easily forgive him. Because countries are disputes between countries, and today we fight tomorrow for peace. However, the relationship between the king and the traitor is a life-and-death relationship, and they are not allowed to surrender to each other.

Therefore, before Janus, even if his life was hanging by a thread, he would not surrender to Jones. Because, once he surrenders to Jones, not to mention that the knighthood that Edward promised before will fly, and he will be finished. You know, Edward has always been merciless to rebellion.

Under the influence of Janus, the recruits in the first and second phalanx of the new army of the Guards also cheered.

On the other hand, Jones was a little dumbfounded:

"What's going on? Where did the reinforcements come from? Could it be that the Basques of the third formation led troops to attack us? No, the soldiers in their formation are all waste, who gave them the courage?"

Until now, Jones and others did not know the origin of this support army. Moreover, these guys are gangsters after all, and have no military literacy at all. A normal general would definitely send out scouts to scout the streets. When the enemy appears behind, the information can be sent back without waiting for the other party to arrive...

But Jones and the others used to be the bosses of black gangsters, and they didn't have that kind of military literacy at all. Therefore, it was not until the enemy killed him that he found the other party...

The most ridiculous thing is that until now, Jones did not know that the enemy behind him was the regular army. I saw him indifferently ordering:

"Let the brothers at the back turn around and chop up the rubbish, don't affect our attack on the Tower of London!"

Then, Jones continued to lead people towards the Tower of London...

"Nima, there is a large army attacking behind you, and you still have the mind to move forward?" Janus was a little dumbfounded. He also thought that the other party would immediately turn around to prepare for battle and resist the regular army behind...

But at this time, he couldn't go back either. Because, his performance, the regular guards on the city head are watching.

So, he gritted his teeth and said:

"Brothers, the enemy has nowhere to go. They are dying now, follow me and block their last attack! As long as we successfully block them, His Majesty the King will reward us! Don't lose the credit that is coming!"

After listening to Janus' encouragement and the thunderous shouts of killing from the other side of the street, the recruits of the Praetorian Guards, who had always been very cowardly, actually burst out with great courage and fought against the men in black who rushed over. Together. Of course, behind the Tower of London, they had nowhere to go.

Moreover, at this time, many torches were also lit on the wall of the Tower of London. The core guards of the Imperial Guard on the top of the city also opened their bows and shot the men in black. For a time, with the help of the bows and arrows shot from the city head, the recruits of the two square formations under the city actually resisted the attack of the men in black.

Jones originally planned to carry two blades and join the fray himself, especially to deal with the wounded Janus. As long as Janus is dead, the new guards of the city may collapse.

However, before he stepped forward, there was a tsunami-like scream of killing from the back. Moreover, listening to this voice, it does not sound like it came from his own subordinates.

why? Because the shouting and killing of the men in black and the swordsmen was more chaotic. And the screams of killing from behind were very uniform, like...

"Could it be the regular army?" Jones trembled in his heart.

"Shouldn't be, don't the regular army go north?" Although Jones had no military commanding talent, he knew the English regular army to death. In order to supervise the regular army, he sent more than 100 people to follow along the way, closely monitoring the regular army of England.

If the regular army returns, someone will definitely come back to report, it is impossible that there will be no news. Because of this, he didn't believe what Janus said about reinforcements. Because, Edward's regular army is being watched by him.

However, the screams behind him became louder and more uniform... Jones thought for a while, but he still led people to drill through the crowd to the mobile high-rise near the end of the street to observe the battle.

However, this observation shocked Jones...

Because it was not the Janissaries in white rose costumes (the white roses symbolizing the York Dynasty) who fought with those men in black, but the red cross vests on a white background (Marin's army wore black on a white background). The cross vest, but for England, during the period of England, the soldiers of the Fifth Army changed to wear the regular army clothing of the western city camp, which is similar to the "St.

"It's impossible! Didn't those people in red cross and white vests go to Scotland? Where did they come from? William, haven't you heard anything?" Jones turned to the men in black who were monitoring England's main army. Chief William roared.

"What news? I also received news the day before yesterday that Edward's army is attacking the Scottish border. There is nothing unusual..." William, the intelligence chief of the man in black, was also very confused.

"That's right, as for the more than 100 intelligence officers, it's impossible to hide them all. Is this army in front of them disguised to scare people? It's actually a fake regular army?" Jones said to himself.

But soon, he didn't dare to think so. Because, he saw with his own eyes - this army wearing red cross vests on a white background beat his men in black and swordsmen to defeat...

The fifth legionnaires who rushed in front were a group of sword and shield soldiers. They held a single sword in one hand and a wooden round shield covered with iron in the other, and rushed to the men in black who were holding the sword.

Unlike ordinary sword and shield soldiers, this group of sword and shield soldiers did not hold a sword in the right hand and a shield in the left. The fighting style is not to block the enemy's attack with the left shield and attack the enemy with the right knife. Their way of fighting is to hold a shield in the right hand and a knife in the left. Moreover, they hold a shield in their right hand, not to block the enemy's attack, but to use a wooden shield to smash people...

Yes, this group of sword and shield soldiers is holding a shield in the right hand, just to hold a wooden shield in the right hand, and use the shield surface wrapped in iron to smash those swordsmen in black...

"boom--"

"state--"

...

A dull sound of collision came, and those swordsmen in black were directly smashed - what is this style of play?

The group of sword and shield soldiers sent by the Fifth Corps to play the forwards have relatively large arms. Holding heavy log shields, they smashed hard at those dumbfounded men in black and swordsmen. The men in black and the swordsmen were at a loss, so they hurriedly waved their swords to resist. However, these round wooden shields are all nailed with iron, and they are not afraid of blades at all. Under the powerful kinetic energy, the blades of many black-clothed swordsmen were directly knocked flying. Even if the blade was not knocked flying, the blade was also smashed to the side, making the man in black hold the blade unstable.

At this time, the seemingly weak left hand of these sword and shield soldiers stretched out a one-handed straight sword...

Different from the scimitars held in the right hand of ordinary sword and shield soldiers, those scimitars are mainly used to cut people. The left-handed knives used by this special sword and shield soldier are all straight knives with sharp tips.

Why use such a straight knife? Because Crete, who invented this sword and shield tactic, believes that the left hand is not strong enough, and it is not strong enough to cut people with a sword. If you fight with the enemy's sword, you may be knocked flying.

To this end, he simply let the sword and shield soldier use the straight knife in his left hand, and directly use the stab. Because, Crete once heard Marin say that the most damaging action of a sword is to stab, not to cut. Moreover, if you hold the shield in your right hand and smash the opponent's weapon, the enemy's door will be opened wide, and the knife in your left hand will also be very convenient to stab the enemy. In addition, under normal circumstances, these sword and shield soldiers can also be switched between their left and right hands, instead of the conventional left hand holding the shield to block, and the right hand holding the knife to slash or stab...

Sure enough, after the knives of the men in black in the front row were smashed into the air, the empty doors of the men in black opened their chests. And the sword and shield soldiers of the Fifth Legion took the opportunity to stab the enemy's chest with their left-handed sword...

"Pfft-"

"what--"

...

The knife cuts into the flesh, screaming again and again...

The people in black holding the one-handed knife were severely suppressed by this unconventional style of play. Then, thousands of men in black were forced to step back on Da Pagoda Street...

General Clichy rode on his horse, looking at the good battle situation in front of him, excitedly said:

"Krit, your method is really effective!"

And the sword and shield soldier commander Crete modestly said:

"That's because you are good at taking advice, sir, and these men in black only use a one-handed knife instead of a shield, which gives us a great opportunity!"

Crete was right, if the men in black also held wooden shields, they would not have been beaten so badly. However, these black-clothed swordsmen who are used to gang fights are more accustomed to the one-handed blade knife commonly used by underground forces when they fight, and are not used to holding a shield. Therefore, this time they were beaten by this unconventional tactic, and they were defeated and had no ability to resist.

In addition, the sword and shield soldiers of the Fifth Legion are well-trained, skilled in cooperation with each other, and know how to work as a team. Therefore, under the impact of hundreds of unconventional sword and shield soldiers, thousands of people in black were beaten by hundreds of people and retreated.
