I am Da Song

Under the command of their great Emperor Manuel, the defenders of Constantinople did not choose to sit still, but took the initiative to pull out of the city from the Theodosian Wall while the main force of the Song Army was not fully prepared. In addition, there will be a decisive battle with the arrogant King Qin's army on the Thrace Plain.

Participating in this battle were 3 French Crusaders and more than 1 elite Byzantine troops.

With a total of 4 people, on the medieval battlefield, it can definitely be regarded as a huge lineup that affects the direction of the entire world.

If the entire army of 4 people is wiped out, it will be a super event that will shake Europe.

This is no exaggeration.

Perhaps in the eyes of Orientals, the size of these 4 people is not worth mentioning, but these 4 people already include all the nobles and most of the knights in France.

The [-] elite Byzantines also included [-] armored cavalry, [-] Varangian guards, and [-] professional Turkic slave cavalry.

This is already the entire main force of Byzantium, and if its status is compared with the Central Plains, it is probably equivalent to the Three Rivers and Five Schools of the Eastern Han Dynasty government.

That is, the knights of the manor masters in the three capital regions of Henan, Hedong, and Hanoi, and the five captains of the Northern Army.

The Eastern Han Dynasty implemented the recruitment system, and there were only tens of thousands of professional soldiers in Luoyang, but relying on these tens of thousands of people, Dou Xian achieved the highest military achievement of the classical empire, Le Shi Yanran.

Huang Fusong, a famous general at the end of the Han Dynasty, relied on these tens of thousands of people to quell the million-level Yellow Turban Uprising, and suppressed the Qiang rebellion that swept through Lianzhou and Liangzhou.

If the [-] lineages of the Byzantines are destroyed, it is probably equivalent to the eradication of all the Central Forbidden Army of the Han Empire in one fell swoop during the period of Emperor Han Ling.

As a country with a recruiting system, there are no professional soldiers in other places, and the empire is too big to be defended.

Therefore, the greatest emperor of Byzantium left behind his most trusted general, Andronikos, to stick to Constantinople. He personally brought ten thousand professional soldiers in scales and armor to follow King Louis of France to participate in the battle. The decisive battle of the century.

If the coalition forces were defeated in this battle, there would be no force in front of them that could resist the red tide's invasion.

Red Tide will recreate the horrors of Attila's invasion of Italy.

And their opponents "the only master of the Ross states, the supreme ruler of the Eastern European plains, the destroyer of the civilization of God, the sword of the red tide, the king of Song and Qin" have long been looking forward to this day.

More than 6 barbarian warriors and nomadic cavalry gathered in his camp from all directions.

Although these people are not professional fighters, they are all young and strong in a tribe. They wear linen clothes and animal skins, and hold huge swords and axes.

But in the face of a professional army, advancing and retreating, and changing battles, they are a little weak.

After all, without training, they don't understand any orders and cannot execute the complicated tactics of the Song army.

Tens of thousands of fighters can only advance and cannot retreat on the battlefield. Whether they can win or not, only God knows.

At dawn, the sky was bright, and there was still a thick fog in the air. The armies of both sides marched to the Thracian Plain west of Constantinople.

Zhao Chen, king of Song Dynasty and Qin Dynasty, rode a white horse without a hair on his body. Standing in front of the whole army, it is hard to say whether the barbarian soldiers behind him are elite or not, but the scale is definitely magnificent, with more than 6 people densely packed Arranged on the Thracian Plain, the military formation is endless at a glance.

The army formation stretching all over the mountains and plains is seventeen miles long. From Zhao Chen's perspective, this army formation is already remarkable.

It's not that densely packed human heads form a large formation of black crows.The deployment of elite officers from the Song Dynasty made the 6 people line up into hundreds of phalanxes.

These phalanxes are row upon row, interlocking with each other, and horses, antlers, and shield walls are arrayed among them.

A personal guard rode up to Zhao Chen and said, "Your Majesty, two thousand Mongolian cavalry have entered the formation to serve as the supervising team. Anyone who dares to flee will be killed immediately."

Zhao Chen nodded. Mongolian iron cavalry is one of his core combat forces, but he did not choose to put these 2000 people into the sword battlefield.

This is not his own opinion, but the advice given to him by the Privy Council.

Although this Privy Council is not the Privy Council in Tokyo, as a vassal state, like Dali, Xixia, and Goryeo, he has set up his own Privy Council to be responsible for commanding wars.

In the Privy Council of the Qin Kingdom, Shouque Shulingshi may not have excellent strategic management and overall situation view as Tokyo's Shouque Shulingshi, but they are not weak in tactical quality.

After all, they are all officers and non-commissioned officers recruited by the most elite field army in Song Dynasty.What they have spent their entire military career studying is how to win a field battle of this scale.

In fact, this battle related to the life and death of Constantinople, in the eyes of the professional soldiers of the Song Dynasty, was a battle on the scale of a field army.

During their military exercises, it can be said that every time they fight at this scale, they are so familiar that they cannot be more familiar.

In this kind of battle, if the [-] main force cannot fight to the death and a large-scale collapse occurs, [-] Mongolian cavalry will not be able to save the battle at all.

On the contrary, if 6 people can work together, it is not enough to have these two thousand Mongolian cavalry.After all, the King of Qin still has elite descendants who are more fierce and capable of fighting than the Mongolian iron cavalry.

Zhao Chen is very appreciative of this plan. After all, his father, the current emperor of the Song Dynasty, was able to win the most critical battle of Tokyo at the beginning, relying on the declaration of "Song army advances and retreats to die", so the three armies are in awe, and the soldiers are excited Only by using your life can you severely injure a powerful enemy.

He personally rode his horse to mobilize in front of the battle, and shouted: "All my soldiers will fight the enemy bravely. Once the battle starts, it will be a time of death!"

"Before the battle, those who retreat first regardless of the army will be killed immediately!"

"Before the battle, the army ignores those who retreat first, and the rear team kills the front team!"

"Anyone who dares to violate military orders will be shot to death!"

"Anyone who takes half a step back will be killed instantly!"

The sound of mountain shouting and tsunami sounded from near to far, shaking the sky.

"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!"

The sound shook for tens of miles, abruptly dispelling the floating mist in the sky, and the sunlight shone on the densely packed knife tips on the Thracian Plain, reflecting a gloomy light.

Manuel's war horses were frightened by the roar, their front hooves raised, and they panicked. If the captain of the Varangian guards hadn't helped to pull the reins in time, the emperor might have fallen before the battle.

And the roaring roar in front made countless defenders of Constantinople panic.

The influence of the red tide has penetrated into the whole of Europe, and this roar is the most obvious symbol.

The barbarians have never uttered such a battle cry.

"Wan Sheng!" This is a unique military symbol of the Orientals!
Now that the battle cries of the Easterners have appeared on the Thracian plain, can God's army really stop the spread of the red tide?
