"defense!"

Greek archers pulled their bows and shot towards the Latin cavalry, but the Greek infantry and cavalry next to them had obviously not reacted and had no intention of support at all. This greatly inspired the Achaean knights, so the Latins broke forward more boldly. For them, they could only shoot arrows continuously and threaten the avant-garde cavalry slightly, but this could not resist the heavy armored knights.

"charge!"

The Latin knights who rushed towards the enemy formation with thunder were no longer afraid at this time. What about Molia's little fox was just bluffing! Viscount Sene thought to himself while commanding his army to rush towards the uncovered Greek army formation.

The Roman army guarding the siege equipment was the first to flee, while the archers who were covering the side still tried to resist, but this was useless. The thin layer of resisting horses was like a thin layer of veil on the chest of a woman in front of the Latin Cavalry. They could tear them apart and rush in and do whatever they wanted.

This time there was no Greek fire or muddy swamp. The home court was with them. Viscount Sene stared at his enemies tightly as if he could get prey. Under the joint charge of hundreds of heavy cavalrymen, as long as no one could stop the enemy that could easily defeat several times his own side, the confident man sneered, and in his opinion, the glory of the battle of the Olive Forest was right in front of him.

The so-called Greeks were still as vulnerable as before, Viscount Sene thought.

But all this was in the control of Justinian who was watching not far away. He was waving the battle flag to signal the front army to slowly retreat and create the illusion of defeat. It was obvious that the Achaean army had taken the bait again. Compared to the more cunning Venetians, these Frank knights had no choice but to move forward bravely. Although they were brave, they were easier to deal with in Justinian's eyes.

"Saleus!" At Justinian's signal, the equipped cavalry under Saleus were also prepared, but Neusky, who was standing by, still did not understand why Justinian was like this. He first siege the city of Argos without attacking, and then he laid the cavalry in the rear for a long time. At this time, he had no time to stop the Latin cavalry from tearing the front army. This was like deliberately putting his situation at a disadvantage. Justinian should not have made such a mistake.

But at this moment, the charge of the originally unstoppable heavy cavalry was suddenly interrupted, and the sound of horse hooves like thunder shook, bringing fear. However, when the iron hooves stepped into the position in front of the Greeks, the knights suddenly discovered how soft the land below was. Then the war horses under their crotch suddenly collapsed on the already hollow strata in front of them.

This caused the cavalry of the Achaia vassal state who lost their hooves to the front in an instant. Although the knights in Western Europe did not have the habit of charging in a dense manner, the cavalry charge in the front row was interrupted, and the climb time made the cavalry wedge formation that was originally formed scattered. This immediately created an opportunity for Justinian to have been waiting for a long time.

All of this is attributed to Justinian's engineers digging the tunnel in the rear. Whether it was the recklessly fierce and continuous attack of the catapult or the formation that showed obvious flaws were all to confuse the Latins in the city. Even the heavy cavalry dismounted was to block the Latins' sight of the city and avoid being noticed by the enemy in advance. It was obvious that Justinian's layout not only deceived the Achaia people, but even Neuschi on the side did not expect this.

Seeing this scene, Neuski realized, "So he had already expected the Latins to take the initiative to attack?"

Justinian nodded and replied, "It was just that I had predicted this before. In order to ensure 100% success, I can't explain it in front of the crowded formation." It is easy to defeat the Latin cavalry, but it is difficult to say that it will be completely eliminated. Therefore, Justinian must ensure that the plan is safe, so as to make the least possible person know.

At this moment, when the Latin cavalry charge was disrupted, the heavy armored cavalry that had been encircled around finally completed the preparations for the attack.

It was the turn of the Latins who witnessed all this to panic. Viscount Sena held up his sword, trying hard to get his cavalry back in line.

"Don't move in the front line!" Senna shouted, but from behind, flying arrows shot at this moment. He found that a Turkic cavalry behind him rushed out of the forest on the side of the city and cut off their retreat.

It turned out that the enemy had already set up an ambush! Senna, who had been very confident before, finally became a little panicked, and the Turkic words that came came one after another made him feel even more anxious.

At this moment, beside Viscount Senna, who was already at a loss, Sir Baptist shouted:

"Sir Senna, attack before!"

His words suddenly awakened Senafaniz, who was still frightened. At this time, the Achai knights were surrounded. On the contrary, the Greek army at the front was the weakest composed of infantry. As long as you break through them and wait for the support of the two wings of infantry, you can get out of the trap.

With a quick decision, Senafanis immediately ordered the cavalry to line up, abandon the previous wounded, and threw the equipment he didn't need and even the armor on his body into the ditch. Although this loss made the knights feel very distressed, it was now a time of life. Fortunately, the Greece's temporary repelling ditch was not too deep and was quickly filled.

Then the Latin cavalry, who had reorganized the array again, rushed to the position of the Roman archers who had not yet evacuated. However, the archers were greeted by the twisting crossbows behind them. The crossbow operator shouted, and the next moment, the stone crossbows shot out in a row, and shot directly into the cavalry queue that the Latins jumped into incoming. It usually looked very common, but the big and small stone bullets of fists directly smashed the horse's head and bones. Some cavalry fell under the war horses in a bloody and dead on the spot.
