Chapter 62 The decisive battle that had to be started

"What's going on, Lord Gotfry?" Baron Wenier couldn't help but questioned as he looked at the scene in front of him with an unhappy expression.

The sudden appearance of the Turkic cavalry completely disrupted his plan, so that he now had to urgently order the former army to return to aid and temporarily slow down the attack on the besieged Roman army in the Acropolis. However, despite the sudden attack, Senvenier seemed calm and obviously did not panic for this...

At the same time, only the shouts of "kill" sounded loudly and launched a charge towards the enemy that was several times higher than one's side. Arslan led the riders under his command without fear. While the Turkic warriors broke into the enemy formation, they put down their bows and slashed with sabres and wanted to kill for a while, but no one could stop them.

"Take a fight and defeat them!" Arslan roared immediately, and the Turks galloped and charged with a nearly wild attitude. At this moment, this cavalry was using a dangerous sharp knife, and the Latins' knights on the front line had no time to withdraw, which gave them the opportunity to cut open the defense line of the Latin coalition. As long as the enemy commander was killed on the spot, the entire battle situation would undoubtedly undergo a shocking reversal. Once this beheading operation was successful, it would be easier to seriously affect morale than the Latins' previous catapults to shoot corpses.

You should know that the outcome of a war is often changing rapidly. At that time, the conqueror William took advantage of the enemy's commander Harold's death and won in one fell swoop. Therefore, it is undoubtedly the wisest choice to destroy the enemy's center in such a huge gap between the enemy and us. Although Arslan is eager for the safety of his father, he is not yet fully dominated by impulsive emotions.

With a small team in person, Arslan tear apart the Latin battle formation like an extremely sharp knife. The Turkic cavalry was only a short distance away from the enemy's central camp.

The nearby Latin army hurriedly approached the camp, trying to stop the Turkic cavalry that was raiding, but the opponent was extremely fast and could easily ride a horse over the set-up horse-resisting obstacle and rush straight to the camp in front of him. Each Turkic cavalry continued to advance with arrows like locusts and rain, fighting bloody battles.

In front was the camp of the Latin coalition, and only a few Venetian guards were guarding there. But in Arslan's eyes, it was useless. The weakness of the Venetian land war was well known to everyone. Without heavy spearmen and cavalry, the Latins could not stop them at all. Now the two were trapped in the quagmire of war ahead and could not come. It was time to decide the outcome!

But just when Arslan thought everything was about to end, something beyond his expectations happened. The Venetians who blocked their shields showed off the weapon they had been hiding in their robes, a heavy crossbow with a cold light. Seeing this thing, Alslanton felt mostly cold in his heart, and he was familiar with this weapon. When he and Justinian had their first encounter, they robbed the countryside outside Ilovan Castle and suffered from such powerful weapons. New crossbows, such non-mainstream weapons on the battlefield, were carefully improved by Italian craftsmen, not only had a longer range of armor-breaking ability, but also a nightmare for everyone on the battlefield.

The dense crossbow arrows directly covered the chess players under Arslan who were charging in an instant. They caught off guard and climbed up the time. Anyone who was shot in the body felt as if they were hit hard by the heavy siege wood, and before they could sense it, they fell under the horse. The Turkic warriors let out crazy roars, and they were caught in the shoulders and were only a little bit able to successfully reverse the entire battle situation.

But at this point, Arslan, who was unwilling to fail, still braved his arrows and rushed into the enemy formation, but was already scarred. The subordinates beside him also used their bodies to resist the rain of arrows, and then rushed into the Latin Central Army camp. Looking at the Latin Crusader flag planted in the center, Arslan used his last strength to throw out his sword, and saw that the cross battle flag that inspired the morale of the Latin army was nailed to death in the dust.

Seeing the flag falling, the exhausted Arslan showed a gratifying smile, and the war horse he was riding was already dying and finally couldn't hold on. He screamed and fell down and dropped the young Turkic man off the horse. And got up from the ground and looked at the Latin man who was eyeing him, Arslan sneered, gritted his teeth and broke the crossbow arrow on his shoulder, and held the long knife and calmly waited for his final ending.

Just as the Latin soldiers were about to rush to kill the pagan, the next second - another team of troops rushed into the war and was unstoppable. It was Leo's commando who led the commando to rescue. Although he was full of resentment towards Arslan's reckless behavior, he could not stand by any means.

"Come up, Arslan!" Rio, who rushed over on a war horse, twisted the wolf's waist and pulled Arslan up the horse. Arslan, who was sitting behind, was still stunned and did not react. The Latins also had to do anything. They did not have time to react. They came back to their senses and saw that they were like wind storming the clouds, and they were coming and going quickly. The Rio garrison leader, who was not in love with the battle, took advantage of the Latins before they could react and then led the commando out of the siege.

This scene happened, and the time of the climb made everyone stunned. The Latins were completely shocked by the performance of these tenacious Turks in front of them. On the other hand, they saw the military flags of the Latin coalition forces covered with dust. The Roman army, which was already at a disadvantage in the acropolis, immediately cheered up and shouted "Reinforcements have arrived." The Latins, who were in turn suppressing the attack, retreated step by step. The Latins, who did not know what the commotion in the rear, were also at a loss. For a moment, the Latins, who had already attacked the camp, were repelled again.
