king of ros

Chapter 293
"Finally caught up..."

Rostislav, covered in blood, said wearily, and there was a sense of relief in his words.

It's been a difficult journey, and he paid a lot for it, but since the goal has been achieved, it's all worth it.

Seeing the critical situation at that time, Rostislav immediately led his entourage to the east bank through the pontoon bridge. This team was the most elite reserve force in his hand, so he mobilized them without hesitation.

After all, to support Adam who is under siege, you need to move quickly, and the followers are composed of cavalry.

The command was all thrown to Polei. This veteran was able to cope with the situation and continue to dispatch the army. He did not live up to Rostislav's expectations. He immediately ordered the troops to speed up across the bridge. This is a critical moment in the battle. The deployment of troops It has to be fast.

On the side of the Moscow princes, they turned the neat queue upside down along the way, but they still didn't cause any casualties.

But when passing the pontoon bridge, Rostislav's cavalry knocked many people into the water.

Fortunately, a group of forest people passed by at this time. They were wearing armor made of leather and fur. If they fell into the water, they would not be dragged down and drowned immediately. The cavalrymen then climbed ashore in embarrassment.

Then the following team was crushed all the way like a herd of beasts. The soldiers on both sides in the melee suddenly found that such a strong army came out, and they subconsciously avoided their sharp edges. Revenant.

And Rostislav came at the right time, just to block the Bulgar cavalry who intended to behead Adam.

Facing Rostislav's most elite heavy cavalry team, these Bulgar cavalry were extremely weak, and they were completely at a disadvantage when facing the Russians. It just collapsed.

Rostislav waved to Adam after he regained his composure, and Adam waved back with a thankful expression on his face. He knew best how timely Rostislav had come.

Now Rostislav didn't feel any anger in his heart, because he knew that Adam had saved the whole situation by doing so, and he should be grateful for taking the risk.

"Lord Rostislav, you have come here too, so what should we do now, please give me your order."

Vasili naturally crossed the queue and came before the prince of Moscow. His followers naturally obeyed the officer unconditionally and stepped aside one after another.

Just when Vasily came, the team of spearmen who had been pulled by him to defend Adam passed in front of the cavalry in an orderly manner, then formed again and pushed the enemy over, allowing these who saved them Soldiers can rest better.

"Order... we just wait, let the troops go back first, don't continue to fight now, I have to talk to Adam, and remember to set up my flag when the time comes."

Rostislav's answer exceeded Vasily's expectations. He thought that the next counterattack would be to take advantage of the situation and let the "friend cavalry" sweep down to drive these Bulgars away.

But now you are retreating first?And this is not to show your own existence to the Bulgars. There will definitely be more Bulgars who will be attracted to them. Don't you use yourself as a target.

"Excuting an order."

Rostislav noticed Vasily's confusion, but he didn't explain anything, just ordered the order to be carried out.

Naturally, Vasily could only choose to implement it. His heart was still full of puzzles, but he didn't ask. As Rostislav's subordinate, he knew very well that if the prince didn't want to say it, then he had better not say it. to ask.

And after the flag of Rostislav was raised, the morale of the Ross side on the entire battlefield became even more exciting, because their prince is now with them, and nothing can boost morale more than the arrival of the coach.

This time it was the turn of the Bulgars to face the pressure, and with the continued arrival of Ross's vital force, the pressure they faced was getting bigger and bigger, and the balance of the battlefield finally began to reverse.

However, the Bulgars still have a lot of power, and the battle can continue for a long time, unless...something happens that is enough to reverse the morale of the battlefield.

"What, you say Rostislav has reached the east bank?"

Just as the prince of Moscow was slowly retreating, Akkad received the news, and his face was full of disbelief.

That Rostislav will come to the east bank while a large number of his troops are still on the west bank?This is too inconsistent with the qualities a general should have.

As Kashin's biggest victim, Akkad clearly knew how cunning the Prince of Moscow was, but now he told him that he had done these irrational things, and it was normal for Khan not to believe it.

But the banner of St. George's dragon slaying was indeed flying there, and there was indeed an army of iron men and iron horses under the banner, and Rostislav's gorgeous armor was even more difficult to cover up, which made Akkad have to believe again. .

"In that case, let me take your head, Rostislav."

After Akkad repeatedly confirmed that this was true, he immediately led his troops to attack.

This kid sent himself in front of him, he was so able to refuse this gift that fell from the sky.

At this moment, Akkad's troops had already come down from the ridge. The arrival of this information undoubtedly pointed out the direction of attack for Akkad, and this mixed elite cavalry team immediately became active.

The Bulgars made way for their Khan. They were actually quite afraid of this cavalry. The Khan's direct descendants have been domineering all these years. What a smart person should do is never stand in front of them.

But what Akkad didn't know was that his departure gave Rostislav's free chess piece a lot of room to move, and this originally inconspicuous leisure chess would determine the direction of the battle and play Rostislav's best. It didn't work as expected at all...

"Ah, we're finally here."

Just on the other side of the sandbar, away from the battlefield full of blood and death, a Ross fleet is slowly docking here. This fleet is composed of long ships.

There were a lot of reeds where they docked, so they blocked the fleet's figure, and they didn't raise the flag, they just acted low-key.

The longships are not big, and they are usually used to transport goods on the Volga River, but now they are also transporting goods, but they are transporting soldiers.

Valin is the leader of this team. Now he jumps off the boat and sighs. He has been on a boat all this way. He feels that his ass is about to explode, and the land he is stepping on now makes him He felt so kind.

After him, other people disembarked one after another, and the sailors also put down their oars and came, forming a combat team of three hundred, advancing vigilantly under the cover of the surroundings.

Thanks to the thick reeds, no one noticed their presence.

Of course, this has a lot to do with Akkad taking away the last reserve team. If it weren't for this reason, there should have been sentries all over the place, and the longship would have been spotted the moment it arrived, and then the warning horn would have been blown rang, and then they would be wiped out by the Bulgars' reserves.

However, Rostislav hadn't planned for these people to make any achievements, and his previous expectation for their arrival was just to hope that they would attack from another direction to contain the enemy.

After all, it is very difficult for them to make any big impact with only this few people and this small boat.

It was only after reaching the east bank that Rostislav's thoughts changed, and he also realized that if the army seized the opportunity, it could achieve some unexpected results, such as taking down Akkad's main formation.

So he set up his own banner. On the one hand, he used himself as a bait to see if there would be any miracles.

On the one hand, it is to allow the troops to continue to rest and reorganize. The Bulgars have no signs of defeat, and he must preserve his strength.

But now, due to the increasingly fierce battles on the front line, no one has noticed the existence of Valin's troops. This gives them a lot of room for movement, but the key lies in how their leader will choose.

At first, Valin wanted to go directly to support the front line, which was also the original plan, but now he saw the Bulgar flag on the ridge, and the stone bomb trails that kept piercing the sky, and there were not many people there. His thinking changed, and ambition surged like a tide in his heart.

"Everyone follow me, let's take down that Bulgar Khan."

While saying this, Valin took the lead and walked up.
