The Sun and the Lion

"Go back! Go back!" The officers drove back the cavalry who tried to escape, barely maintaining the organization of the army.

"How is the situation of the surrounded brothers?" Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ibrahim asked about the status of the troops.

"I haven't calculated the specific number yet, but at most it's less than one out of ten..." Mustafa made a visual inspection and gave his own estimate.

"Your Majesty, launch an attack quickly, while the enemy is still exposing his back to us." Muhammad reminded from the side.

"Advance!" With an order, a low trumpet sounded, which lasted for more than a minute. The reinforcements who were ready to go immediately rushed forward, and countless arrows were shot out, which then fell into the Aries formation, exacerbating the chaos.

"Attack! Deter the enemy!" Alvand ordered quickly, and the cavalry prepared on both wings began to move to the two wings of the religious army after receiving the order, using bows and arrows to harass the advancing Georgians and bow holders.

The red heads, who were responsible for covering the charge of their comrades with arrows, quickly shifted their targets to the cavalry marching to the two wings. After firing several rounds of arrows, the Aries cavalry gave up the practice of using bows and arrows to stop the enemy. Instead, they took out lances and scimitars, trying to intercept Ibrahim's troops by relying on impact and close combat.

The red heads first used arrows to shoot down the fastest Aries cavalry, and then some of the red heads also put away their bows and arrows, drew out their scimitars and lances, and chopped off the heads of many Aries cavalry. The cavalry failed to achieve their goal and fought in a stalemate with the red heads.

Alvand watched the Georgians rush into the military formation and began to tear at his own military formation. Fortunately, the fighting will and skills of the Georgian cavalry were not as good as those of Qizilbash, so the Aries cavalry did not fall into a complete rout. Under Alvand's supervision, the cavalry was reorganized and once repelled the Georgian attack. .

"I think they are going to run away. It seems that these Christians are not reliable, Your Majesty." Hashayar commented on the current battle situation, and then suggested: "It seems that we must go into battle now. Your Majesty, you are here, Wait until I bring you the news of victory."

"As a soldier, how can I leave my soldiers behind and watch you fight alone in the dangerous enemy formation?" Ibrahim asked in return, and Hashayar wanted to say something else, but Ibrahim interrupted: "I have made up my mind, do you want to disobey the Sultan's order?"

Afterwards, Ibrahim ordered Muhammad and Mustafa who were observing the battle not far away: "You two, quickly go to the left and right wings to command the battle! I don't want to be isolated and helpless like Golaberi." Then he went Gather the retreating Georgians.

"Your Majesty, it is roughly estimated that there are more than two thousand Georgian cavalry who can still join us in the battle." Hashayar pointed at the demoralized Georgians, with worry and distrust written on his face.

"That's enough." Although he said this, Ibrahim still felt unsure. However, as the situation has developed to this point, neither side can retreat and can only bite the bullet.

"Look, that's the enemy's general!" A leader pointed to the military flag belonging to Ibrahim that was approaching in the distance. Arvand took a closer look and thought that was where Ibrahim was. He was overjoyed and said confidently: "Let us end this hard and bloody battle!" After that, he first ordered to shorten the front line. Width, gathering the cavalry into the center.

However, Ibrahim's breakthrough speed still exceeded everyone's imagination. After a while, the bow holders were like wedges, deeply embedded in the Aries cavalry formation.

"Alwand's Tuck, Your Majesty! We are getting closer and closer!" Hashayar reminded Ibrahim while cutting off the enemy's horse with a Sheshi'er scimitar.

Ibrahim did not answer. He just bent his bow and shot an arrow in that direction.

Suddenly, the chaos in the Aries army intensified. Ibrahim realized that he might have shot some important person and caused their confusion. He would not let go of this opportunity: "Brothers! Follow me and kill Alvand." !”

Alvand covered his thigh that was hit by an arrow, endured the pain and shouted: "What are you all doing here? Go and stop the enemy, I'm not dead yet!" As soon as he finished speaking, a spear passed through Among the guards, although this time they were not so accurate, they still knocked a leader off his horse.

"Damn it, damn it, they are all a bunch of pigs!" Suddenly, Red Riding Hood appeared in Alvand's field of vision. After discovering that death was so close to him, he was instantly dominated by disgust and panic, and then he cursed . But yelling and scolding could not change the situation of the battle. In his desperation, he even forgot to arrange the next actions of the troops, leaving the flag officer and guards behind and retreated behind the battle line. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com

"Oh my God, it looks like I'm going to lose this time." Looking at His Majesty the Sultan's actions, this thought came to everyone's mind.

"Retreat! Retreat!" A leader couldn't bear it anymore. If things continued like this, even if Alwand won, most of the young men of his tribe would be lost. Thinking of this, he immediately ordered his tribe to retreat to save their lives. strength.

"This damn goat fuck! Who allowed him to retreat!" Alvand ignored the embarrassing behavior of retreating behind his followers and blamed the leader. But this is a void battle, because that force is on the right wing.

But his attention was quickly drawn back, because the surviving guards told him the unfortunate news: Ibrahim personally killed the flag officer and captured Alvand's tuk.

The capture of the flag caused an irreversible blow to morale, and Alvand had no choice but to order a retreat, bringing an end to the bloody battle that lasted from noon to dusk.

Seeing the white sheep cavalry retreating like a tide, the red heads could not believe it at first, and then became ecstatic. Regardless of their own fatigue, the red heads began to chase the defeated troops. Ibrahim also joined the ranks, but sent an unlucky messenger back to the camp to inform the news.

The Georgian cavalry were also in high spirits. After all, the headwind suddenly turned tailwind, so it wouldn't hurt to grab more trophies. In this way, the cavalry of the religious order pestered Alvand's troops like chewing gum, so that Alvand did not even dare to return to the camp. He abandoned the three thousand cavalry who stayed there and ran back to Shiraz in a detour. .

The three thousand riders who stayed behind made a wise choice - surrendering, with a wall in front of them and a tiger behind them. At this point, the external threat that prevented Ibrahim from besieging the city of Tabriz was temporarily eliminated.
