Eagle Flag of Epirus

"Hold up, hold on!" On the sea wall, the Latin soldiers who were already a little distraught were still trying to stop the Vadaritai who came up. They thought they were safe from the direction of Nicaea’s invasion, but they never expected to encounter a group of desperate lunatics.

The checkpoint here is the most important place in the Golden Horn, because the chain mechanism connecting the waterway is here. If it is lost, the original natural danger will immediately be turned into a thoroughfare and useless. This is why the garrison commander Joseph arranged them here. Therefore, even if the Vadaritais in front of them are coming fiercely, the Latin soldiers are still firmly holding the control of the sea wall and dare not take a step back.

"Arrow!" the Latin army commander on the wall roared loudly.

I saw Latin soldiers holding a noose-style crossbow aiming at the Vadarutai who rushed up like a fatal man, and the powerful crossbow bolts instantly tore through the body of the steppe warrior who went through the first. Undoubtedly, this new type of weapon of war invented by the Italians possessed powerful lethality, which immediately suppressed the offensive of the Vadarutais, but this crossbow also had a fatal weakness. That is the complexity of loading. When the first round of design blocked the roaring attack, the nomads stepping on the corpses and blood of their companions rushed up again in the next second, and this time, the Latin on the sea wall The samurai finally entered the firing range.

Entered the range of the compound bow in the hands of the Vadarutai-this short but strong horn bow, although the range is not as good as the crossbow, but it has the same frightening lethality, especially for wearing a single body. Latin soldier in chain mail.

"Swish swish"

After hearing only a few screams that pierced the air, the arrows engulfed in the strong wind pierced through the door of the Latin Soldier, who was leaning out of the wall and preparing to shoot again. Steady and relentless, there is no hesitation in the sniper shot of the arrow, so that the Vadarutai people did not waste a chance to shoot a feather arrow.

And this scene directly frightened the courage of the defenders on the sea wall, because in their opinion, the bows and arrows shot by the grassland peoples would be so deadly as if they were cursed. The reason why these wolves and tigers appeared on the Genoese ship was even more chaotic for the Latins. The sea wall defender, which was clearly dominant in number, was directly suppressed by the Vadaretai team led by Justinian. .

But apparently the Latin army, which was specially arranged by Joseph to stay here, was not vulnerable. Although they were already at a disadvantage, they quickly formed a line to deal with them. They used the wooden shields in their hands to form a shield wall, relying on each other, standing like a wall. , To resist the fierce arrow rain, and fire crossbow arrows behind the shield at the same time.

"Sneez", justinian's cheek was swept across by a swift air current, which made his skin fierce and painful, and a warm liquid flowed down from his ears. It was the smell of blood, just a little bit before the opponent directly hit him. However, Justinian turned a deaf ear to this, still shooting arrows, and at the same time speeding up his pace, and soon rushed to the Latin who was holding the arrow on the shield, and this scene naturally inspired the rest of the tiles. The Daritai warriors, seeing the momentum, quickly followed Justinian's pace.

And the Latin soldier in the front was about to wave the shield. Justinian’s broadsword cut off half of his head at the first one, and then Justinian pushed the shield and suddenly turned it over with the weight of his whole body. There were several Latin soldiers behind. Justinian, who had crossed the wall, waved the sword in his hand and forced the surrounding Latin soldiers back, and immediately opened a gap in the last defense of the original Latins. And this completely defeated the last fighting spirit of the Latin defenders on the sea wall.

"Retreat, retreat!" Seeing that the crossbowman in the front was crushed, the Latin soldiers who had lost their helmets and unarmed fled towards the boat behind them, but the Vadaritais who had boarded the city head wielded their machetes as if harvesting straw. Generally beheaded, without the power to resist.

A total of three hundred heavily armed Latin soldiers were wiped out in this way, and Justinian and his Vadarutai guards only suffered more than a dozen casualties before they captured the sea wall on the Golden Horn side. Looking at the blood-stained city head and the fallen corpse, Justinian couldn’t help feeling full of emotions for a while. Just three years ago, the Latin Crusaders landed on the sea wall and fell. This eternal city belonging to Rome dragged the empire into the eternal abyss. But now, he led the former imperial guards to return here again but had to choose to leave again. The smell of blood permeated the air, which made Justinian feel not nasty and nauseous, but extremely sour and helpless.

"Master Justinian..." The voice of Vadarutai's guard came from behind~www.readwn.com~ At this moment, the youngest warrior of these grassland tribes looked at the thin figure of the young boy, but his expression was full of expressions. With the incomparable solemnity and respect, there has long been no suspicion in Bulgaria. If anyone in this world can lead them to return more hope from the darkness, then they believe that only the young man in front of them can do it.

At the same time, Justinian also felt the eager gaze behind him... But in the dim sunlight under the smoke of gunpowder, the boy did not say a word, and slowly walked towards the sea wall by the iron cable. Suddenly, Justinian swung the long sword in his hand fiercely. The sword fell and slashed heavily on the iron chain. At the same time as the crisp clank sounded, the iron ring that blocked the entire waterway also responded. It broke apart and sank into the sea that was stained red with blood.

At the same time, the young son’s sonorous and powerful voice rang in the ears of the Vardaritai warriors, “The evil enemies make the righteous people feel embarrassed by their tyranny and despotism. The cowardly and faint-hearted master is fraternity and kindness. It’s even more desperate in the name of, you were once confused about who will be blessed by God, and I tell you now. He is the true guardian of his compatriots and the savior of lost children. At the same time, he will be full of hatred and With immense anger, destroy anyone who is trying to poison and slaughter my compatriots with enemies and revenge. Now, follow me to rush out here, not to survive, but to make our enemies pay for them in the future!"

At this moment, the sea breeze was blowing on Justinian's ragged and ragged shirt.

On the top of the cities, above the flaming bay, it only makes people feel that a winter flower is coming to his enemy with a fierce cold wave.
