Eagle Flag of Epirus

Vol 8 Chapter 48: The Returning Banner

"That is!"

"Master Justinian!"

When the standing black fox battle flag fluttered in the wind on the mountain plain in the distance, greeted the eyes, and the almost desperate defenders on the city of Thessaloniki burst into cheers of joy. They knew that the adult did not abandon them, he is leading the returning army to support the city, and the enemy in front of them will usher in the end of their demise.

"He really came back." Looking at the battle flag that Moriah was invincible, Queen Odoxia couldn't hide her excitement at this time. Justinian, who had not heard anything for months, finally appeared, no matter what Whether it was his safe return or the resolution of the crisis in Thessaloniki, her eyes blushed and she almost cried with joy. On the side, Antonia hurriedly stepped forward to support the emperor who almost couldn't stand because of her excitement. The heavy burden over the past few days has almost crushed this sickly woman. It all depends on Odoxia to support herself, and these Anthonys Ya are vividly visible.

Now that everything is ready, the next step is your one-man show. Antonia quietly stared at the three armies gathered under the city, holding a secret letter tightly in her hand at this moment.

Igor and the others, they should be almost ready now!

On the Macedonian plains, the coalition forces of Epirus and Bulgaria reacted for the first time. The Bolgar cavalry took the lead. After dispersing the refugees, they immediately set up a diagonal defensive flank to buy time for the infantry phalanx to turn. These elites of the Assen royal family made great achievements in the Bulgarian War of Independence, and even dealt a fatal blow to the Latin Emperor Baldwin in the previous Battle of Fort Adria. In addition to their terrifying battle abilities in man-horse outfits, the compound bows they are equipped with also have good long-range damage, so it is clear that Justinian's army did not immediately attack.

"Huh, did you come? It seems that Agrinion must have screwed it up." Mikhail Dukas, with a cold expression, looked at the Moriah army gathered in the distance, and said to Chashi He was actually not surprised by Denny’s arrival. The emperor who was already prepared sneered and said, "Since you come here to die, then you will be fulfilled."

Sacrifice such as bxwx.co sacrifice such as. Seeing the fully prepared coalition forces of Epirus and Bulgaria set up a posture on the plains of Thessaloniki, Justinian was not eager to let his army launch an offensive. Although he had an unexpected advantage, the Moriah army under his command came from afar, and with more than half of the recruits, he was on the other side who needed a firm foothold.

Decrease bⅹшⅹ●С〇汜. Standing at the only commanding height on the plain and looking at the enemy's invisible army, Justinian's expression became more serious than ever. This is a gamble that determines the fate of Rome. And he must defeat the Dukas family and the Bulgarians in front of him, otherwise he will be irresistible. Turning around, Justinian looked at his subordinates behind him, still maintaining his usual composure, and said to them indifferently: "Get ready! Order, let everyone march in."

"Yes, Your Highness!" Although Justinian did not say a word of encouragement to them from beginning to end, Salius and the others did not hesitate because they believed that the young despot could lead them. Towards one after another victory, until the restoration of the great Rome.

Seeing that Moria’s army has not moved yet, the impatient Bulgarian army took the lead in launching a tentative offensive. Of course, the Asen cavalry in charge of the formation did not dispatch, but sent Kuman mercenary cavalry wearing felt hats. These came from the north. The nomads of the wasteland are excellent mobile forces on the battlefield.

I saw them break away from the army and quickly scattered in every corner of the entire plain, attacking Moria's army from time to time. Bows and arrows fell on the new army like raindrops. Although the sights on the horse were much worse, it still posed a big threat to the recruits on Moria's side. Focas commanded them to react immediately.

"A shield array!"

With an order, the Mysteris infantry armed with short spears and bucklers immediately reacted to form a circular closed front that blocked the friendly forces behind them. They were clearly more well-equipped from the wealthy class, and their bows and arrows fell on their shields and locks. No one was hurt on the top.

At the same time, Moria's new army is also ready to fight back.

"Let the arrow!"

As soon as the voice fell, "Shoo, hoo,", the Modong archer, who was shielded by the shield array, shot arrows at the Bulgarian light cavalry uninterruptedly. These archers guarding the southern border of the empire are good at shooting enemies on the turbulent sea. Even on land, their arrows are more deadly than the herdsmen riding.

The Kuman cavalry's loose front line was quickly "tipped". Obviously, the price of strong mobility was simple equipment. After facing the arrow rain of the Modong archer, the Bulgarian light cavalry was quickly shot over a group of people. , They chose to escape.

Seeing this result, Emperor Mikhail was not surprised. He had long guessed that the Bulgarians who acted recklessly would be at a disadvantage. But this small setback has nothing to do with the overall situation, because at this time his generals are all ready, UU read www.uukanshu. com then Mikhail Dukas ordered his side to sound the offensive horn.

In the grand sound of playing, Epirus' army began to attack. In the view of Emperor Dukas, the best solution is to quickly defeat Justinian and defeat Justinian with an absolute advantage. The battlefield will change rapidly. The game instantly turned into a contest of pure strength, so that Moria's little fox would have nowhere to hide.

This is precisely the result that Justinian is most reluctant to see. As Simien, who was captured by him before, said, Mikhail had been prepared for a long time, but he still had some understanding of Epirus’ background in the past few years. underestimated.

Mi He Mi. "Order the change immediately." Justinian motioned to the flag officer beside him to release a signal to the surrounding infantry phalanx.

After receiving the order, Moria’s army immediately responded. Under the premise of keeping the battle at any time, the infantry formation began to shrink from the original horizontal formation. The codes of practice left during the time of Reese I are arranged in eight rows to cover the Mo Dong shooter behind. This method of deepening one's own depth can effectively deter the enemy's cavalry from rushing into the formation without authorization, but at the same time it also increases the difficulty of dispatching and requires a commander with a high degree of command ability.

This is precisely what Justinian lacks the most. After experiencing the baptism of fire and sword, the new Moria army in his hand can already do it like a hand.

The infantry phalanx of Moria's army changed its formations in an orderly manner, while Tan Bei’s cavalry and Saliuus’s Revival cavalry were mixed with two-winged infantry to cover the whole army in a one-to-two distribution. They belonged to Justinian. Hole cards are related to the success or failure of the battlefield, so it must be able to react to it in the first time.
