"I discovered that at that time, the other party's army completely ignored the defense of the two wings, and fought desperately to move forward regardless of life and death. So I understand that - they came for me - this passage must be recorded!"

Egil still dealt with the battle with a half-joking mood. As he said before, he had seen through the other party's actions. This behavior seemed very easy to understand. Capturing the thief first captured the king. The other party seemed to be trying to gamble on all 80,000 lives to exchange for Egil.

"Sure enough, I still bully me without an heir." Egil snorted softly and muttered in a low voice. The guards around him turned their faces and pretended not to hear them.

"This sentence is also recorded." However, Egil was a hero and dared to make such a public. He turned around and said this to Talleyran, who was stunned with a quill pen, almost scared the clerk.

And at this moment, the more than 20,000 Christian crusaders were on the long bow, crossbow, and fire

The artillery suffered heavy losses under the intensive attacks. However, they still charged forward desperately. The battlefield was full of corpses, which was shocking. This situation made the front-line commander Ba Mami a little confused. According to her calculations, under such dense and concentrated firepower, the opponent's army should have collapsed long ago.

However, the other party was still charging for fear of life.

"Are they crazy?"

Within a distance of 100 meters, the best range of the Emperor's Wrath of the Emperor's Furious Crossbowmen. Mamamei was shocked and annoyed. She waved her command knife and shouted: "Step Crossbowman, shoot!" Then she heard a series of sour teeth. She could fire a crossbow arrow every two to three seconds, and could fire twenty or thirty crossbow arrows every minute, which was a semi-automatic step.

Level of continuous shooting crossbowmen began to shoot.

The large number of crossbow arrows that could cause people to lose any resistance were crazy about the enemy in charge. At this point, the Norman Empire had 160 artillery and 1,500 firecrackers.

Wooden warehouse

The firepower net with a range, medium-range and short-range coverage of four thousand crossbowmen, six thousand five hundred long archers, and five hundred consecutive crossbowmen, a total of 13,200 soldiers was finally formed.

Each longbowman can fire ten arrows on average in one minute, while each crossbowman has three shots per minute. Each fireman

Wooden warehouse

Four shots (because two fires are equipped

Wooden warehouse

For the sake of this, the number of ammunition can be projected per minute is about 93,000 long-range projection infantry. The firing speed of the twelve-pound long-barrel cannon is one round every three minutes. The mortar cannon is shorter, about two and a half minutes, with an average firing amount of twenty shotguns per minute and forty blossoming rounds per minute.

If all such firepower is hit, it will be enough to completely destroy the entire Holy See army once, and it will be a little rich. Of course, this situation cannot occur in reality. The bows, arrows, crossbows and arrows fired by the soldiers,

Wooden warehouse

It is a great result to hit one shot every ten rounds. And there may be more than a dozen or even more projectiles hit an enemy. But even so, even if such variables are taken into account, the ranged attack power of the Norman defense array is scary enough.

In the end, more than 20,000 Christian Crusaders were wiped out, and only a few soldiers rushed to the Norman array. Immediately afterwards, they were beaten into meat sauce by the Norman infantry in the front row of the new army regiment with flying axes. However, this was enough. The efforts of more than 20,000 cannon fodders made the regular Holy See who followed them and used these poor people as meat shields to eat hundreds of thousands of bows, arrows, crossbows and arrows.

Wooden warehouse

The shells were shortened to fifty meters at the same time.

"Prepare for hand-to-hand combat. Protect the artillery. Don't let the enemy destroy the artillery!" On the front battlefield, looking at the opponent, those crosses wearing composite armor with chains and holding crosses, like military pickaxes, were seen in front of the battlefield, looking at the other party, crosses wearing chains and composite armor, holding crosses, like military pickaxes.

Wooden warehouse

The Holy See's army with the oval shield rushed over. General Bamamei knew that the war was about to begin. In the first two rows, the heavy-armed crossbow soldiers in three quarter plate armor put down their pulley crossbows, pulled out the saber on their waists, and took down the round shield on their backs and put it on their left arm. The soldiers immediately turned into well-equipped heavy-armed infantrymen. The thousand guards who were also equipped with three quarter plate armor were fired.

Wooden warehouse

The soldiers also gave up their muskets and became melee infantry similar to heavy crossbowmen.

On both sides of the heavy crossbowmen, the five columns of the new army are super long

The square formation, the Norman phalanx infantry in the back three rows, also took their length

The square formation moved to the four thousand, interspersed in the previous array, behind the five new army crossbowmen. Waiting for these non-regular melee soldiers to support them when they were not formal.

Engineers who operate flat-fire long-barrel cannons arranged at the forefront of the array retreated. These technical talents who could operate artillery are valuable resources. As for the artillery they left on the battlefield, Egil believes that these steel bumps with difficulty in moving will have no other use than being regarded as roadblocks. Although Bamami said to "protect the artillery." Egil really doesn't think that these things can be protected.

"It's finally about to start." Egil sighed softly, took the monocular lens handed over by the guard knight next to him, and looked at the enemy opposite him-the opposite, those holding heavy crosses holding heavy crosses.

The best soldier with a solid oval shield wrapped in iron and wearing the best composite armor of the Italian craftsman could make is the product of the military reforms of the Roman Catholic Church. Their predecessor was the elite infantry of the Pope who caused considerable trauma to the Eastern Roman army in the First Battle of Budapest. At that time, these well-equipped and highly morale troops even blocked the charge of the Eastern Roman monster Minotaus on the Eastern Roman side.

And this time, these elite, devout soldiers were used as attacks, but they were not bad at all - the armor on their bodies completely resisted a Norman fire

Wooden warehouse

Shooting by hand! Under the dual effect of shield and armor, Norman's pulley crossbow could not kill them at once. Some soldiers' chest armor was knocked into one piece by the projectile, and they might even hurt their ribs. Some people also had several crossbow arrows or bows and arrows inserted into their bodies. However, even so, these people still roared frantically and rushed towards the Norman array.

Wooden warehouse

, sting!" The new army commanders yelled loudly, and the company commanders yelled the same words. They were five meters away, holding super long

Wooden warehouse

The Norman phalanx infantry was like one. Each company, even every team, and even the five teams in the front row, roared a total of 3,000 phalanx infantry almost at the same time. With their roar, their anger, and their incomparable worship and loyalty to the Norman Emperor, were accompanied by this.

Punch it out! The front foot step, the back foot support the ground, exert force with the waist, the left hand is in front and right hand is behind - Punch! The three rows are like Lin Tie

In an instant, it stretched neatly for nearly half a meter! It was like an iron wall, and it blocked the charge of the arrogant heavy infantry of the Holy See!

Accompanied by the sound of gold and iron, Norman's super long

The third column pierces the abdomen, the fourth column pierces the chest cavity, and the fifth column pierces the neck. Although the Holy See soldiers were wearing armor, they could not withstand the prick of such strength, either pierce the artery of the neck, and blood was gushed like a spring, killed on the spot, or were grown

Punched into the chest and abdomen - although it has armor protection, it was also caused by the shock due to this strength, and some people even directly shattered their kidneys and killed them!

And in the long
