Eagle Flag of Epirus

Vol 5 Chapter 69: Rumbling

"What, that is... the Varangian?!" Casavenier looked at the scene in front of him and was completely shocked. Of course he knew the reputation of the Varangian, and he was absolutely impossible to admit his mistake, because he had been Those who have seen the horror of these guys, even the mighty crusaders are not their opponents. But after the fall of Constantinople, didn't they have fallen along with the prestige of the empire? Why did you appear here again!

I saw that the fighting between the two sides on the deck became more and more fierce. Despite occupying the superiority in numbers, Venice has gradually shown a decline, because they are not facing an enemy that can make them underestimate, but have made a great deal of success. The prestigious Varangians. Whether on land or at sea, these guys are veritable kings of war. At the beginning, many Varangians served in the navy of the Roman Empire, and although they eventually became the Guards of Constantinople, they were still familiar with water, and they were the last enemy the Venetians wanted to see.

"Hold it, let me withstand it!" This can only relieve the fear in his heart. The Venetian nobleman roared, but his face still showed a stern look. But this was not easy. The elite heavy infantry in Venice were transferred to the shore to cooperate with the Latin coalition forces, and the sailors were uniformly equipped with light armor for the convenience of rescue after falling into the sea. When they encountered the Varangians, they were as if they were chopped off melons and vegetables.

I saw the blood soaked in the sea water, and the pungent **** smell made people nauseous.

The Varangians were armed with a large axe and faced such a fierce attack more and more bravely. The Venetian who could not stand it finally had to retreat, because the leather armor worn by the sailors was actually no different from the paper in front of the opponent's giant axe.

The two sides continued to wield weapons and kill frantically, with screams from time to time. They were already in a melee, which directly caused the crossbowmen on both sides to stop shooting, and saw the hand-to-hand combat become more intense.

Killing killing, endless killing, the fighting between the two sides is getting more and more fierce. No one knows which side the winning balance will tilt. It's just that, under the current circumstances, everyone is stunned, and some even fight hand-to-hand with bare hands. Both sides tried their best to defeat the enemy in front of them, but the outcome will eventually become clear as the casualties accumulate.

Finally, when Nevsky exhausted all his strength to overthrow the last soldier who had the courage to resist Venice, the morale of the Venetian army on the deck was finally unsustainable. Then, like a chain reaction, it fell apart in time, and was defeated. And watching this scene, Justinian on the boat finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was always worried that the Venetians would continue to resist by relying on their numerical superiority, which would cause the outcome of the battle to be variable, but Nevsky and him The Varangian guard did not disappoint Justinian until the end.

At this moment, the desperate Casavenier and other Venetian nobles on the ship looked at the erosive situation and the soldiers who had lost the courage to continue resisting, and finally understood that they had lost the war. They have no choice but to surrender—

The battle on the other side of the sea is still going on. The Pisa nobleman Pierre on the flagship can't help but frown as he sees the stalemate in the battle. If this continues, the Roman army on the shore will inevitably be unable to sustain it without reinforcements. This is not what he wants to see, but Pierre is unwilling to confront the Venetians head-on. Once the other party notices it, it will cause a war only seen in the Republic of Pisa and the Republic of Venice. Such serious consequences are not. He can afford it.

But just when Pierre was in a dilemma, suddenly the Venetian fleet, which was still advancing and retreating, was in chaos at this time. It turned out that the Venetian flagship raised the white flag at this time. And beside it is the paddle boat that Justinian is on!

"What a bunch of lunatics!" Pierre, who took a breath of air, immediately realized what was going on, but he was still deeply shocked by the scene before him. As the commander-in-chief of the army, Justinian didn't take his life seriously, which really made him unimaginable. But he had to admit that Justinian really succeeded. Because the Venetian command center was taken down, the entire fleet was unable to maintain the original blockade because of the lack of a leader, and this is the best time now.

"Order the whole army, go forward at full speed!"

Without hesitation, screamed, Pierre immediately told his fleet not to continue entangled with the Venetian, and found a breakthrough nearby, before the Venetian had reacted to it, and landed on the beach~www.readwn.com~ This scene also fell. In the eyes of the Latin Allied forces, the Venetian navy, who watched the battle at sea, showed signs of decline and had the intention to retreat. They had been flanked by the attack, and they felt even more turbulent. No matter how their commander shouted, the army's spirit was already unstoppably shaken, and it was feared that if they were hit again, they might be defeated, and this is undoubtedly what the Latins are most afraid of now.

"How could this happen?!" Before the Chinese army had just repelled the assault of the Turkic cavalry before it had time to react, Cienvenir saw with his own eyes that the battle that had been won by the winner had changed suddenly. The sudden appearance of the Greek navy not only fought with his fleet evenly, but also took the upper hand, and at this time it was forced to land under his nose. The Greek army that had been besieged for three days and three nights on the hills of the Acropolis was on the verge of collapse, but now it has become more and more courageous. And all this is undoubtedly the masterpiece of that nasty kid.

"Justinian... Justinian?" While chewing on the name, he kept it firmly in his heart. Moria's little fox has been marked as a dangerous enemy. And now he has no contempt for Ranieri Dandoro, who suffered a fiasco in Fort Wiscari. Because it was obvious that the enemies they encountered this time were indeed not waiting.

Immediately, the man made the final decision, "Order the whole army to retreat north! Retreat into the city of Athens!"

As soon as this statement was made, the Marquis of Gottfrey and the Duke of Otto, who stood behind him, showed a look of astonishment on their faces.
