In the end, Sansadonias and Sansadonias ran back to the city of Antioch, only five or six hundred remnants of the lost soldiers, and most of them were wounded, and eight hundred died in front of the two pilgrim forts and bridgeheads, of which the latter was in front of the horse wall, and the corpses of the Turkic soldiers lying in front of and behind the wall of the latter were especially large, and nearly 3,000 were killed by the reinforcements of Godfrey and other lords, all the bones were concentrated along the Falfa River, mixed with the corpses of thousands of the pilgrims themselves, which literally turned the walls of Antioch into a foul-smelling cemetery.

This time, all the lords gathered about a thousand war horses from all the camps, and reinforcements came, which can be said to have cost blood, and the slaughter and trampling of the Turks was also fatal.

In general, Yaji failed, he let his son command four thousand elite dead soldiers to break through, as a result, most of them were killed in battle, although they captured the pilgrims' defenses, but the number of siege equipment burned was very limited, and on the side of the Iron Bridge Fortress, his tens of thousands of elite foot riders, the end is not yet certain.

Agee instantly seemed to be old and a dry corpse, and sat slowly on the wall, looking at the blood-colored sunset, and the three signal flags below, still there lonely in the wind, drumming back and forth, making a monotonous and distant sound, which should be in harmony with the state of mind of the Lord of Antioch, and Patriarch John was still there eating, licking the plate, and looking contented.

At the head of Antioch, Prajit looked at the slaughterhouse below, and felt the sky spin under his feet, and then he whispered to the other Armenian and Syrian Greek soldiers, "Now, Agi. Xiyang really can't do it. ”

Before the other soldiers could answer, several aggressive slave soldiers. They came down from the tower, and the group hurriedly silenced them.

Soon. With the anger and suspicion of the losers, the search and massacre of the alien mercenaries and imprisoned citizens in the city began. Pragit turned around and saw a Greek doctor hanged on the rack in the market square on the other side of the city wall, on suspicion of inciting prisoners to revolt, and his wife, daughter, and son were also taken before him and beheaded; Then, an Orthodox monk suffered the same fate, and he was beheaded and stuck in a spear as a show of intimidation. The sin is that he is still secretly hiding the books of Christ; Even two Futuis soldiers, who had escaped from the previous battle, were hanged to the left and right of the rack, but this was only the beginning, and the indiscriminate and frenzied killing soon spread - under the white mosque spire, people were constantly begging for their lives, and they were killed one by one by Yagy's execution procession.

Prajit saw this, his breath became rapid, and he felt his throat go down. There was a constant gush of sour substance, and finally he leaned forward and leaned back in the midst of a piece of laughter, holding the pheasant. Vomiting all over my body.

And in the valley plains on the other side of the iron bridge, the combined forces of Gawain, Bohemond, and Tetisius had approached the small hill that served as the "eyes" of Adesonius.

Closer. All the scouts found out that behind this hill. It was almost identical to the terrain behind them: undulating valleys, covered with shrubs and grass. However, the true face is not clear at all, and only by seizing and occupying this hill can the situation of the enemy on the opposite side be clearly seen.

Conversely, the same is true for Adésonius.

Three teams, stretched in a queue of three gurries, each selected thirty horsemen as promised, but the first thing Gawain did was to ask the Brotherhood to take Bramson and Diem out and stand in front of the whole army.

"I am waiting for this moment, this particularly critical and perilous moment, when behind this hill there may be an ambush of infidel bandits as numerous as all of us, who cannot be taken lightly, and who are all subject to military discipline and discipline - these two men, who, in the storming of the fortress of Alarman, have disobeyed my orders to retreat, and are still climbing ladders that do not reach the walls of the city, encouraging other soldiers to climb the siege, and inflicting unspeakable losses on the whole army. Now I want to punish you, and set an example for you and for today's decisive battle! With that, Gawain stretched out his horsewhip, and several members of the Brotherhood stood on either side of them with long whips in their hands, "There's no room for maneuver!" Twenty lashes were given to each of them. ”

Dim still had an ignorant expression on his face, Bramson had seen it, he couldn't help but be shocked, and hurriedly knelt down, Gawain's pale blue eyes looked at him, Bramson's back began to explode, he knew that the Grand Duke said this in front of the whole army, there would never be an example of not saying words.

"Bramson, you can be exempted from beating as the standard-bearer of the thirty cavalry soldiers!"

"Yes, yes." Bramson hurriedly grasped the hilt of his two-handed sword, expressing his willingness to die on the hill.

"Dim is my Praetorian Guard's standard-bearer, and he can't be exempted from whipping." Gawain shook the tip of his horsewhip and said without hesitation.

"It hurts to death! Grand Duke, why did you fight me until now! Dim was bare-chested like a tower, his hands were held by rope rings, and he was caught on a wooden frame, and three or four members of the Brotherhood behind him waved their whips, and there was a crisp and terrifying sound, and all the soldiers with spears in their hats and helmets stared at this scene with dull and fearful expressions.

After the whipping, followed by the whipping of the stick, after which Tim almost passed out, his hair sweating against his thick forehead and neck, beside Gawain's mount, Androdat counted expressionlessly, few people could have imagined that this cold-looking heraldic officer was originally a probationary monk in the monastery in the mountains of Calabria, while Muzafiadin was a little apprehensive in his heart, constantly peeking at the side face of the Grand Duke, who was squatting on the execution table, and drawing lots with each other, The chosen soldiers, who rode out of the procession, did not dare to make any expressions—at last, Androdart finished counting, and reached up, and several executioners carried buckets and drenched Diem from head to toe.

At this time, looking at Diem, who could barely touch the ground on his toes and was pulled back to the queue by others, Gawain's eyes moved slightly, "Go back to the flag car, Goliath." The Grand Duke commanded.

Like a beast with a wet head, Dim shook his hair, said "Yes, I'll go", shirked the support of the others, shook his upper body full of whip marks, and walked to Gawain's war horse side flag car, "This battle continues to serve as the flag bearer of the Praetorian Guard, beside me." ”

"I see." Dim gritted his teeth and continued to raise the banner, under the gaze of all the soldiers, the blood-red battle flag shining through the slanting sun on the armor on their backs, and the cold of wading in the river just now had been completely replaced by the warmth of the ocean.

"Goliath remembers my other words - hatred, fear, money, honor, and even food are not your masters, but you have only one master, and that is me." After Gawain finished speaking, he pulled out the silver horse's head scepter and pointed to the small hill directly in front of him, "Bramson, go up." (To be continued.) )
