Chapter 1301. Slaughter, missed

Playing with Li Jie, Constantine IV almost never won a few times, and this time he lost three-eighths of the city's troops, and the red-eyed Roman emperor listened to Anna's persuasion, and was even more angry, almost madly rushed to the edge of the wall, roaring fiercely at the dogs below.

"Augustus will never give up his throne! Even if I die, I will die like Queen Theodora, wearing a purple robe! Augustus declared that he would not surrender! You'll all have to fight to the death for me! Kill! Kill! Kill! ”

Constantine IV's crazy gaffe made the entire city defense in an uproar, and the soldiers guarding the city looked at them in astonishment as if they had become mad dogs, and the emperor scolded the street, and Archbishop Baldwin also saw that something was wrong, and let the emperor say that maybe the army's heart would collapse, and hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Constantine IV's arm and dragged it back, while waving the battle flag with double-headed eagles, Christ Cross and other decorations in his hand fiercely, and finally shouted.

"For the holy Roman war dead shall ascend to heaven, and those who surrender will fall to hell forever!"

This fools the political old fritters, the holy cavalry composed of nobles is somewhat unqualified, nominally they are the knights of God who believe in the most Christianity, but in fact everyone has a ghost in their hearts, and they will not go to the war that will kill them.

But the more low-level soldiers, the most sincere and simple of faith, the reason why medieval Christianity was powerful was because of the ignorance of the West, many Frankish nobles were illiterate, and the peasants were even more simple.

Even the archbishop, a servant of God, said that dying in battle can give him a chance to go to heaven, and among the more than 20,000 defeated soldiers besieged outside the city, some people really believed it, especially the backbone of Constantine IV's sworn party clamored and shouted at Anna, and hundreds of arrows shot out of the defeated army, forcing Anna to retreat in embarrassment, and the shield men of the Fujian army next to her hurriedly stepped forward to protect her behind the shield.

Originally, Li Jie was in a bad mood, he paid 20,000 vanguard troops for this bait to be defeated, and then for the sake of realism, the more than 30,000 Fujian troops in the front battalion were trampled on and did not look good, although these were not barbarian warriors recruited from the Caucasus vassals, or the Central Asian tribes, but there was no distinction between high and low, and these would be included in the total losses.

Especially if the siege equipment is destroyed, pay such a big price, and if it stalemates for more than ten minutes, maybe the Roman defenders in the city of Constantinople will pour out and let him surround the city, thus ending the war, but in the last ten minutes, Li Jie lost in momentum.

Li Jie, who was already annoyed, was even more like adding fuel to the fire with more than 100 arrows, and pulled out his sword angrily, and roared angrily at the defeated Roman army that was constantly clamoring.

"Kill the !! for the widow"

Almost with Li Jie's order, the drummer once again set up the war drums, and the crossbowmen of the front army, who had been tense for a long time, pulled the crossbow machine together, and under the brush, a row of crossbow arrows fell into the Roman army's rout in the shape of a large pie, and the Roman infantry who were still clamoring in the front row rushed to the ground.

Without waiting for the Roman rout to wake up, in the gap between the six guards surrounded, the Damin Mo knife hand who had taken a break rushed out like a group of iron tower beasts, and the charge of dozens of meters arrived in a few seconds, and the two-meter-long Mo knife was fiercely turned into the rout.

The first row of routers didn't even raise their shields, they were hacked to death on the front line, and then the first row of Mo knife men dragged the bloody knives back, and the second row of Mo knife men were fierce and slashed into the ground formation.

The tiger roared, Fang Yiai wheeled the knife down, and the huge force split a Rus' soldier in half from head to toe, and the blood drenched him, with his crazy glare, the Romans in his sight even exclaimed the devil and retreated in all directions.

didn't let the Mo Dao team concentrate on the front, and the six guards, who had been holding back for a night, also rushed up with irrepressible destruction restlessness, followed by the Fujian cavalry in the rear.

The formation was too tight, the long weapons had been almost lost when they fled, and when the spears of the Min people pierced through, the defeated Roman soldiers had no place to dodge, and the whole battle turned into a massacre.

The slaughter lasted for more than an hour, and finally, when the sun rose completely, the Min army left behind this bloody slaughter field, seeing the corpses piled up, Anna was angry and sad, and shouted at the city.

"They could have not died! Just because of your words! ”

Standing at the head of the city, listening to Anna's roar, and then looking at the blood in front of them, the frightened defenders of Constantinople couldn't help but subconsciously look back, bathed in the morning light, it seemed that the holy aura bathed in the Hagia Sophia was even stronger.

Is this what the Lord wants?

…………

Although the battle was extremely tragic, but on the whole, the Min army was going to take advantage, killing 18,000 enemies, capturing 9,020, and more than half of the Roman Holy Cavalry Regiment surrendered, and the losses paid by the Min army were only 10,000, and they were all Caucasians, and the servant army like the Semins was weak, and the loss ratio of three to one was completely possible to transfer over if it was in the siege war.

After all, Li Jie has experienced a lot, although he did not meet expectations, but in the morning he commanded the slaughter to vent, and his mood quickly calmed down, a good commander should not affect the entire army because of his bad mood, in the afternoon Li Jie announced that the whole army celebrated the victory, and the entire Fujian army immediately cheered.

Killing is also guilty, after a night of intense fighting, as well as the morning of bloody massacres, many sergeants' spirits are tense, if this sense of tension is maintained all the time, the army is prone to decadence, frustration and other emotions, appropriate relaxation, one by one relaxation is very conducive to maintaining morale.

In any case, the Great Min was won, and the defenders of Constantinople were reduced by three-eighths, so it was worth celebrating!

At least within a few days, it is estimated that the Roman legions in the city will not be able to slow down to attack out of the city again, around this, the Min army also cautiously repaired the gap in the wooden wall, which started the carnival, a campfire was burned in the camp, the fresh beef and mutton that can not be eaten usually, the vegetables are bubbling in the cauldron, and even a little wine, the members of the Min army are almost from all over the world, all kinds of strange musical instruments have been taken out, and even the general spent money to bring a team of Greek dancers from Macedonia.

Watching the generous Greek girl dancing in the melody of the lyre and the wheat-colored long legs that are particularly charming against the background of the flames, the Fujian soldiers who secrete too many hormones can't help but scream and let out a ghost-like howl.

The tent of the Chinese army also celebrated, the whole wide tent illuminated by the bronze candle tree was brightly lit, and more than a dozen beautiful palace maids waved their long sleeves, dancing gracefully and briskly, Hu Qin Pipa and Qiang flute, and the sound was melodious in a dream. The swaying posture is also the same as watching a group of old and rough generals, which made the civil officials on the other side show disdain and muttered two reckless words, and then continued to stare at the girl's chest and came out with two sour words.

Anna is in a bad mood, today's massacre, at least five thousand Constantinople children died under the butcher's knife, obviously stimulated her, as the eldest sister, the eldest grandson Zhi followed the relief, so today it was the turn of the former Sassanid Persian lord Isiai III to give the daughter of Princess Haidai, this little Nizi almost followed Isiai III in the shadow of the Arabs for half her life, escaped, escaped, but now it is a rare peak of power, the stars arched the moon, looking at the awe-inspiring eyes of Li Jie's courtiers, Hai Dai was very excited, and frequently poured wine and dishes for Li Jie.

Li Jie's mood will be a lot better, listening to the laughter and laughter of his subordinates, he also chatted with high interest, drank for half an hour, and changed a few dance music, but Li Jie suddenly saw the lower left corner of Wuchen, the burly figure was drinking lonely.

Gao Yang's chattering voice in his ear suddenly remembered, Li Jie slapped his head with a headache, and immediately stood up from his seat, King Min was the core of the whole banquet, as soon as Li Jie got up, the dancer immediately stopped dancing, lowered her eyebrows and pushed it aside, and the ministers also stopped pushing the cup and changed the lamp, and looked at it in surprise.

But seeing Li Jie staggering down from the main seat, he walked straight to the seat of Fang Yiai, and suddenly pulled his hand and raised it high, fortunately this thing was sitting, otherwise Li Jie was really not high enough to hold it up.

"In today's battle, Liang Hou took the lead, took the lead, and killed 22 barbarian ministers, our army can defeat the Roman barbarians in one fell swoop, and Liang Hou should be the first to take the lead!"

Fang Xuanling's title Liang Gong, after coming to Damin, Li Jie also gave Fang Yiai the title of Liang Gong, but the last defeat, Fang Yiai has been swept to the end and abolished as a concubine, and now Li Jie calls Fang Yiai Liang Hou, is to take the opportunity to promote his brother-in-law from the new.

Today, who will sweep Li Jie upset? And today's Fang Yiai is indeed brave and abnormal, and he has made a meritorious contribution to breaking the formation, although it is still a little exaggerated to be promoted from the common people to Hou, but thinking about the fact that Fang Yiai was Liang Gong before, and now he is just Hou, and he is wronged, so he looked at Li Jie holding Fang Yiai's arm and pulled him back to the area of the first minister, whether it was the prime minister or the generals, they also applauded with their hands, and there was no objection.

Accepting the cheers, sitting under the left hand of King Min, Fang Yiai's excited face was red, more than three years of pain and grievance almost made him a well-known man cry, the music started again, and the ministers also continued to celebrate, Fang Yiai just poured the wine into the cup, and then poured it in, and in less than a moment he had already poured himself into a little confused.

But at this moment, the music suddenly stopped again, and Su Dingfang, the hussar general who was missing an arm, was full of excitement, and with his remaining right hand, he pushed an embarrassed Bolgar nobleman in, kicked him to his knees, and Su Dingfang himself was also very excited to bow to Li Jie, and shouted highly.

"God bless me Damin, among the captives, pick out this person, capture, this is the son-in-law of the thief leader Constantine IV, the leader of the Bolgar barbarians, Simon!"

This person is considered the number two person, especially his betrayal in Antioch, which caused Da Min to suffer heavy losses, and for a while, more than 100 important ministers all took the case, but Fang Yuai's pupils grew to the extreme in an instant, and then shrunk back again.

Although it was only a knife and a face last night, it was still enough to make Fang Yiai anxious, but he never thought that this guy who didn't look too outstanding was the leader of the Bolgar people, the culprit who killed Qin Huaiyang, if he killed him or captured him, it would be easy to restore the duke, but it was such a wipe, just like Li Jie didn't calm down at the last moment, he also missed it.

When I drank the wine in my stomach, it seemed to become bitter............
