Eagle Flag of Epirus

Vol 5 Chapter 70: Rout (Part 1)

"The whole army retreat, immediately withdraw back to the city of Athens!" Seeing the erosive situation in front of him, Cynvenir made a decision after some thought.

But Gottfrey and Otto who heard this command changed their faces suddenly, and asked in unison: "What did you say?" They couldn't believe their ears at all, and they almost thought they had just heard it wrong. Up.

However, Cynvenir showed sharp eyes and scanned the faces of the two monarchs in front of him, and calmly ordered again: "You didn't get it wrong. Order everyone immediately. The plan has been cancelled. Retreat back to the city of Athens without any mistake. ."

   "But we are almost there!" Duke Otto who saw this scene was the first to sit still, and quickly tried to stop the Venetian in front of him from making the decision. This time they spent so much effort to completely wipe out the Greek army that Epirus was entrenched in Moriah. As the monarch of the Principality of Athens, he paid a great price. How could he stand by? Seeing this halfway through?

   The same goes for Gottfrey on the side, choosing to stand on the side of Duke Otto and strongly oppose the retreat order of Cynvenir.

"Your Excellency, what are you afraid of even if the Greeks from Moriah rushed over? With our current strength, they still have the upper hand!" His words expressed the voice of most Latins, although they broke through from the sea. The blocked Greek reinforcements have landed, but this time they have also concentrated on at least twice the number of the Greek army. Even if the current situation is somewhat passive, it is not without the chance of a comeback.

   "Get the upper hand, but I don't seem to see this!" Ignoring the opponent at all, Cynvenir said coldly, while ordering his soldiers to gather up and prepare to evacuate the battlefield. Although there are still Turkic threats behind them, after all, the number is limited.

   can see this scene, Gottfrey and Otto are completely anxious now. Because if the Venetians, as an important ally, also choose to withdraw, then the morale of the entire Latin coalition will not be able to maintain, which they absolutely don't want to see. But they couldn’t stop it, because Cienvenir standing here seemed to be just a little baron, but he now represents the whole of Venice. Nowadays, in the Eastern Mediterranean, no one except the Greeks is stupid enough to go to Venice. People forged beams. But just let the other party make such a wayward decision, then the previous efforts will be really wasted.

"As long as we defeat them in one fell swoop, the whole of Moria and even Macedonia will completely solve the scourge of the Greeks once and for all, and this is also in the interest of the whole of Venice!" Gottfrey, who eagerly persuaded, is still unwilling to give up like this. , In an attempt to persuade the other party.

However, the Venetian was not moved at all. On the contrary, he looked at the anxious Gottfried indifferently and said: "Once and for all? I am afraid that the enemy we are facing now thinks in the hearts of the enemy. Let me remind the two if they continue to love each other. I'm afraid it will only hit the little fox in the arms! I have decided to know that I am not the purpose of my trip and I am not here to mix with you. If you must insist on it, then forgive me not to accompany you anymore. "The sneer on his face seemed to carry a deep sarcasm. At this moment, Thain had already sensed the intentions of the enemy opposite him, where would he give him another opportunity, but it was ridiculous that the two men were still in front of him. Fantasy. For him, a decisive battle with the Greeks in this unfavorable location would only put him in danger, and it would be wise to retreat to the city of Athens. After speaking, the man put down his words and then turned around and took his subordinates on the horse and left the Chinese army camp first.

While watching each other leave, the Duke of Otto and the Marquis of Gottfrey looked at each other, even though they were unwilling, they knew they were helpless. The Venetians could leave at any time if they wanted to leave, but without the Venetian’s assistance, they thought. It is impossible for them to continue to complete this decisive battle on their own strength. They have no choice

On the other side, the Pisa warship finally broke through the Venetian blockade and rushed towards the coast. The hinged cable was raised, and the side **** on the lower deck of the warship opened immediately, and the Roman army, which had already been prepared, finally waited until this. For a moment, even though they were exhausted by the turbulence on the sea, they had been waiting for this moment for a long time, but they pounced on the enemy in front of them like fierce lions.

And Justinian, who stepped on the horse, took the lead. He drew the saber from his waist and pointed it bravely at the already shaken enemy army in front of him and shouted: "Warriors of the empire~www.ltnovel.com ~In the name of Governor Moriah, I order you to use your sword to defeat the enemy in front of you, and revenge against them to wash away your shame! Remember to use the blood of the enemy instead of your life. After this battle, I hope Moria will always be our Moria, and the invaders will be driven out of our land."

   only heard the voice, and the soldiers behind him immediately showed an extremely excited expression, as if they were infected by Justinian's words, and issued a chilling roar. At this moment, it seemed that this was not an ordinary army, but a beast galloping on the battlefield, and no one could resist their attack.

"kill"

This scene made the already unstable Latin coalition even more panic. They were going to deal with the frontal Greek army from the Acropolis hill, and the harassment of the Turkic people behind, and this army was killed from the sea on the flanks. It completely crushed them.

It was the armored cavalry that Justinian was proud to kill first. They took the lead as a forward and rushed to the unprepared Latin Allied forces, while the Latin cavalry had been transferred to the rear to deal with the Turkic people. Harassment, for a while, no one can stop this unstoppable charge. The helpless Latins tried to stop the opponent with their bows and arrows to some extent, but their arrows could not penetrate the tight protection of the three layers of iron armor. They saw heavy cavalry rushing into the crowd like a lion rushing into the flock. Unstoppable, and the lances in their hands arbitrarily tore the body of the Latin. Finally under this blow, the Latin Allied forces, which were finally unable to resist, showed a decline, gave up the honor they had always adhered to and had to choose to flee shamelessly behind them...
