Before discovering that the movements of the Ottoman army had become strange, all of Alexander's attention was focused on the right side of the center.

Speaking of which, this area is also a weakness that he has been worried about from the beginning.

It was a small marshland with gentle terrain, and the terrain was higher at both ends, and on the right was the right flank of the entire battle line, where the formation of Montina's army began to shrink inward, and the front of the battle line gradually changed from east-west to north-south.

On the left side of the swamp, Alexander placed Genoese sword and shield guards there, in order to prevent the enemy from potentially breaking through the line after attacking the vulnerable area.

Because it was a swamp, it was impossible to dig trenches and lay deer repellent, and even the musketeers could not form a formation in front of the battle line because of the terrain.

When the Ottomans began to assemble in the area, Alexander finally decided to send the Balkans, knowing that these crazy farmers would not be able to recover like wild horses once they were released, but looking at the rapidly approaching Muserim infantry, Alexander could not think of any other way to stop them.

"Should I thank the Sultan for not thinking so highly of me," Alexander asked his attendant, whose stunned look he could only explain the answer to the joke himself, "At least then I don't have to worry about him sending a new army against me." ”

The attendant's face struggled to squeeze a smile out of his face, and his smile instantly froze on his face when he heard the sound of gunfire coming from a distance.

"Attacked?" Alexander looked to the right of the line, and through the smoke he saw gray figures surging towards the Balkan positions.

More and more of the enemy considered the right side of the formation, and as a large group of Ottoman infantry approached the soft and muddy ground with musket and crossbow fire from both sides of the marsh, Alexander groaned slightly, but nevertheless gave the order to move the troops on both sides of the marsh towards the marsh.

"Tell Pannone that I don't need him to kill many enemies, as long as he can withstand the enemy and make sure that the position he defends is not lost, I will reward them with their entire regiment." Alexander gave the order as he looked in the direction of the enemy.

Speaking of which, he was a little strange, although the battle had just begun, he felt that the actions of the enemy generals were a little too "normal".

Decent head-on engagements, decent attempts to break through formation from weak points, and even sending troops were not surprising that it was infantry rather than cavalry, and it was clear that the enemy intended to use infantry to entangle with him for a while, and then send cavalry to attack in the chaos.

This tactic may seem very different from that of most Europeans, but if anyone who has had experience with the Ottomans knows it, the Ottoman cavalry was never used against enemy infantry in the first place.

Rather, it is used to compete with the enemy's light and heavy cavalry, or often after the infantry and the enemy have engaged the enemy, they will take advantage of the fact that the two sides are entangled and the enemy has no time to divide the excess forces, and then take the opportunity to break through and divide the enemy's formation.

The enemy on the other side clearly wanted to do the same, as illustrated by the presence of Muserim's infantry, which was why Alexander ordered the troops on both sides to move towards the marshes after the Balkan attack, because according to the previous way of fighting the Ottomans, it was clear that the Anatolian light cavalry would come next.

Everything was so "normal" that it gave Alexander a strange feeling in his heart.

The Ottoman generals of this era could be said to be experienced battlefield veterans, not incompetent mediocrity, not mediocre bureaucrats, so Alexander felt a little incomprehensible, or a little puzzled, about the somewhat simplistic ways of the enemy on the other side.

He couldn't tell why, but there was a faint uneasiness in his heart.

He felt that the enemy should have more than this means, otherwise even if he outnumbered him in numbers, it would not be so easy to defeat him, and later the opponent could not think of how the Ottoman general on the other side could complete the task given to him by the Sultan except for relying on the superiority of his troops to fight a war of attrition with which he might not get too many results.

Alexander was puzzled, and it was at this moment that he saw a banner waving from the top of the right flank.

It was a signal that the enemy was about to engage in battle, and the sight of that signal instantly lifted Alexander's spirits.

Perhaps it is a little funny to say, when he learned that the enemy had finally launched an attack on his right flank, Alexander first felt not nervousness, but an indescribable relief.

It was finally here, and that was the first thought that crossed his mind when he saw the signal.

But then he realized that things were not as simple as he had first thought.

"Any slightly experienced general should know that his right flank is easily attacked at such a time," a slightly sarcastic smile slipped across his emaciated face, the Ottoman commander took off his helmet and tucked it under his armpit, the sun this season was already a little unbearable, especially wearing such a tight armor, the sweat that couldn't stop running from his forehead squeezed into his eyes from time to time has made him a little unbearable" So naturally he will strengthen the defense of the right flank, but if he thinks that this is enough, it will be too simple. ”

After speaking, the commander bent down slightly and asked the herald standing in front of him, "Has my previous order been conveyed?" ”

"Master, the order has been delivered." The herald replied immediately.

"Well, follow my orders, and according to the previous arrangement, advance in all formations to the enemy's right flank."

The Ottoman army's front suddenly moved, first the rear formation of soldiers began to move towards the right side of Montina's army, then more and more troops began to slowly stretch the formation, and finally the Muserim infantry who rushed to the front of the rear began to press along the front of Montina's position towards the side of the high ground on the right with the order of the rear horn signal.

The first to discover the anomaly of the Ottoman Front were the Balkans.

When they rushed towards the Muserim infantry, all the Balkans could think of was a life-and-death battle with the enemy, so although the swamp in the middle was slow to approach the enemy, it did not prevent them from taking the initiative to meet them.

So the two sides engaged in a brutal battle of flesh and blood in the small swamp, full of stinking mud and stagnant water.

Some killed the enemy, others were killed by the enemy, and even though the Balkans still remembered Alexander's orders and only blocked the gap in the marshland line, they were already entangled with the enemy, and even because the musketeers on both sides not only had to stop firing for fear of accidental injury, but even hid vigilantly behind the trenches and low walls, ready to guard against the Ottomans to attack their positions while they were entangled with the Balkans.

It was at this time that the Balkans, who had been defending only in front of their positions, began to gradually break away from their positions during the battle.

First a small group, then more and more, these Balkan soldiers, who were entangled with the enemy, were unwittingly separated from their own men and their positions by the movement of the Muserim infantry because they were constantly fighting, and when they suddenly found themselves too prominent and rushed into the enemy, it was too late.

These Balkans were surrounded in an instant, and then quickly overwhelmed by the enemy Ottomans who poured in from all directions.

Seeing his own men being slashed and even mutilated by the enemy, Panoni angrily tried to defeat his companions, but was fiercely blocked by the Muserim infantry, and as he continued to attack the enemy in front of him relentlessly, the gap in his defense was inevitably exposed.

Pannoni's mistake paid him immediately, and when he led the Balkans desperately towards the Muserim infantry who seemed to be loosely formed because of the movement of formation, he did not notice that his own troops had not only given up a gap in the line, but had also separated from the rest of the position.

The Muserim infantry were clearly experienced soldiers, and their commanders were true warriors, with years of experience allowing them to quickly spot the enemy's small weaknesses even in the heat of battle.

So a group of Muserim's infantry, which had already been advancing with the brigade to the right flank, stopped advancing under the leadership of the leading army, and they were at first a little unconvinced, and then finally determined that they were not mistaken.

In the front of Montina's army, there really was an inexplicable gap!

The officer did not even believe that he would be so lucky, so much so that as he rushed towards the gap with his team, he looked worriedly at the staccato wall in front of him, fearing that a group of archers would suddenly appear from behind the wall, saying that they were musketeers.

But perhaps today was his lucky day, and it was only when the Muserim infantry rushed not far from the fortifications that they were attacked by the muskets and bows of the Montina defenders who had discovered their intentions from the flank positions.

But it was too late, and no one could stop the fortunate Muserim infantry officer from doing his job, and with his cry in an unknown language, the Muserim infantry rushed to the breach in Montina's position like a flood that had broken through the earth of the Great Breach!

In an instant, the formation of the Montina army was broken through from the center to the right, and the entire front was cut into two sections, north and south!

This sudden change instantly touched the nerves of the entire battlefield.

Since its formation, Montina's army has never lost its unified command, no matter what crisis it faces, but now that the front is severed, the entire right flank may be in danger of being completely isolated at any time.

Alexander almost choked at the sight of the Ottoman troops pouring into the gap, and the officers around him let out an exclamation of surprise.

"Go and close that gap," Alexander's face turned blue, if he really wanted to hang Pannone and his entire Balkan regiment at this time, but instead of whipping them, they were all hanged, "order the reservists to be brought in to support!" ”

"My lord, if we use the reserves, we will only have the only hunters left." One of the attendants reminded him, but seeing Alexander's tense face, the attendant had no choice but to whisper and turn around to convey the order.

The charge of Muserim's infantry also caught the attention of the Ottoman commander, who was surprised at first, but immediately ordered the troops who had not yet left to stop advancing on the right flank and instead rushed towards the sudden gap.

"Looks like I'm overestimating this Count Montina," Sissou smiled "maybe you don't need to take that little risk to defeat him." ”

Sisugu said and looked in the direction of the high ground on Montina's right flank, he did not carry out the Sultan's intention to carry out a deep and deep encirclement of Montina's army, he was worried that he might be flanked from the direction of Bucharest, so he preferred to adopt a tactical encirclement that was conservative but safer and only carried out shallow and close encirclement on the battlefield.

Although this may only result in defeat, but not total annihilation, he believes that the Sultan understands his intentions.

But now that his enemies themselves had made such a huge mistake, he could have defeated them in a more direct and even more effective way.

By dividing up the enemy in front of him and destroying them separately with the superior forces, Sisugu believed that he would not only win faster, but also achieve a devastating victory as the Sultan had hoped.

"Remember to capture that Count Montina alive." Xi Sugu gave an order to the people around him: "Speaking of which, that person should be grateful to the great Sultan, at least his head will be saved until tomorrow morning." ”

A laugh rang out from all around, and the Ottoman generals were ready to see the embarrassed appearance of the Count of Montina when he was captured.

Grey Muserim infantry, motley tribal infantry, and roaring and scimitar-wielding Anatolian light cavalry, all the nearby Ottoman troops frantically charged towards the gap.

In an instant, the central part of the Montina Front was violently pounded like a facing a monstrous wave.

The Muserim infantry who had rushed into the gap did not believe that they had actually broken through the enemy formation until they rushed through the position, and it was not until they could see the enemy troops on both sides who were hastily changing directions that they realized that they had really broken through the enemy line.

I don't know who first let out an extremely excited shout and roar, and then the roar spread to everyone.

The Muserim infantry roared and shouted and rushed desperately towards the front, they did not know where the enemy commander or which lord was, but they knew that they could only keep rushing forward at this time.

They continued to run and charge until they saw a slightly bulging wall in front of them, apparently just piled up with dirt.

A figure that looked a little hurried was flickering behind the low wall, but at this time the Muserim infantry didn't care about that, they just wanted to rush over.

A sudden sound of bowstrings rang out from behind the low wall, accompanied by the sporadic sound of muskets.

The Muserim infantry, who had rushed to the front, fell to the ground in an instant, and at the same time there was a roar of gunfire from the positions on both sides.

The pace of the Muserim infantry slowed slightly, but the distance was enough for them to rush in front of the low wall.

The officer raised the sword in his hand, and the heavy and wide blade tore the shoulder of an enemy on the opposite side in a single stroke, and the half-cocked body fell behind the low wall with blood sprayed with blood, and the last thing he saw on his half-sunken face was a pair of Ottoman turning boots that had fallen in front of him.

The second front, which Montina's army had hastily constructed to prevent the possible fall of this front, was also broken through in an instant.

The entire Montina Front was completely divided into two sections!

Seeing this scene, the Ottoman army couldn't help but be heartbroken.

And the Montina army instantly fell into a panic.

"Do any of you help me remember," Alexander, who was already riding on the back of Pagathos, drew his saber from his belt, "if I die in battle, forget it, if I survive, don't forget to remind me to settle accounts with those Balkans!" ”

With that, Alexander clamped his horse's belly with his feet, and with a shout, Pagasus rushed towards the gap in the line.

"Keep up with me, Hunter Guard!"
