Chapter 34 Blocking
"This is obviously the work of the defenders of Fort Fratsa. Now that you know this, if you still insist on crossing the fire scene, then I will never stop you." Jonos looked in front of him and rushed to Fort Fratsa.
John Assen replied with a slight smile.
Such a reply surprised the Bulgar man who knew nothing about it. He couldn't help but subconsciously asked: "Are you serious about this?" Obviously he did not expect that the defenders of Vratsa Castle actually wanted to stop them.
The offense came up with such an extraordinary move
You must know that the people in this area will rely on this grassland for their food rations in the coming year, but now the other party actually cut off their wrists and turned it into a sea of fire as a barrier. This kind of decision is staggering, but I have to admit that although this move is crazy, it is really
Very effective.
"So, the rebels in Fratsaburg have set up an ambush." John Assen muttered to himself, and the expression on his face became much more solemn. Could it be that the situation was wrong - the Southern Army was now
I have been prepared at this moment, this is not good news.
In response to this, Jonos, the commander of the Magyar mercenaries, shrugged and replied: "Of course they are prepared. After all, the Bulgars of Vratsaburg are not blind. It's just that after the fire, did the other side have any plans?"
I really can't say for sure whether I am going to lay an ambush. But now that the matter has come to this, even if there is even the slightest risk, I can only stop and wait for the fire to go out. I have to say that the guy who came up with this trick is really wilted.
.”
The man who had been careless about this southward movement seemed to have regained his energy at this time - it was obvious that the defenders of Fort Fratsa were not a bunch of stragglers, and the people who commanded them were also constantly facing dangers and responded quickly, and this made it even more difficult.
This got Jonos interested and wanted to see who he would face off against next.
But seeing that Jonos, the leader of the Magyar mercenaries, was in high spirits, John Asen on the side was very anxious at the moment. As a representative appointed by Grand Duke Ivan, his only purpose was to lead this mercenary army to conquer Sofia.
Threaten the rear of the southern noble army, and the Fort Fratsa in front of you is the only place you must pass on this trip.
Any moment of delay plays an extremely crucial role in the outcome of the battle - in this case, the Southern Army can't afford to wait, the Magyars, but John Assen and the Northern Noble Army cannot afford to wait.
"So, you are not even sure whether the enemy in front of you exists?" the Bulgar man said angrily. After listening to what the other party said, he realized that it was for this reason that the army was holding back.
Jonos, who faced the question, still nodded calmly and replied: "That's what I mean. If you must ask me when to set off, then I can only answer that I will not order the army to set off until the fire is extinguished."
.”
"Are you kidding, Jonos! Don't forget what you promised when you took our money." John Asen, who was suddenly irritated, snapped and asked, but he quickly felt the surroundings.
The other Magyar guards followed him with hostile glances.
This immediately gave him a chill in his heart. He almost forgot that these guys in front of him were all desperadoes. Compared with their compatriots who had accepted Christianity and been converted to Christianity, these guys were more willing to ride on the grassland and unwilling to surrender.
In the Kingdom of Hungary, entrenched in the stronghold of Transylvania, as free men they killed and sold their lives in exchange for money. Credit has always been dispensable to them, and at this moment John Asen also realized that he had made a mistake.
However, Jonos himself didn't seem to care very much about this. After gesturing to the left and right with his eyes, the originally tense atmosphere seemed to ease a lot.
I saw the Magyar man spreading his hands and explaining angrily: "I did promise this, but having said that, I also emphasized that I have the final decision-making power. Therefore, I think this approach does not
What a big problem."
"Can't we try to put out the fire?"
"Extinguish the fire? How to extinguish the fire? Maybe just let my soldiers and every war horse urinate. Is that what you mean?" Jonos said jokingly, looking at the Bulgar man in front of him, and then behind him
The subordinates also burst into loud laughter.
"Then can't we just wait like this?" John Asen, whose face turned red after being teased, finally couldn't help it anymore. Even though he was a little afraid of the Magyars around him before, he must now stand up and ask for help.
The other party gives him an answer, otherwise he will never give up.
And also seeing the other party's resolute attitude, Jonos, who had not paid attention to the other party at this moment, immediately stopped when he saw it, suppressed the smile on his face, and said solemnly: "Of course not, since the other party wants to
If it wants to slow down our pace, then naturally I won't let it drag me by the nose so easily - in fact, I already have a countermeasure, it's just that you, Sir John, didn't notice it."
"I didn't notice..." John Asen was slightly startled when he heard this answer, and then the sound of rapid horse hooves not far away suddenly reached his ears. I saw a fierce Husar cavalry galloping towards here.
, they are the essence of the Magyar mercenaries, and they are responsible for the main combat tasks. When facing a head-on attack, it is precisely because of their swift and thunderous charge that the Magyar talents can be invincible.
But what makes John Asen strange at this moment is that what these elite cavalry are holding in their hands is neither lances, spears nor bows and scimitars, but bundles of dry grass and dead branches. I saw them galloping on their horses, throwing the weapons in their hands
All these miscellaneous items were piled on a grassland that was burning with raging fire, and their next move made the Bulgar man even more stunned.
I saw a Husar cavalry throwing the torch that had been prepared in his hand, and the flames were thrown into the piled dry grass and dead branches. In an instant, a raging fire ignited, the fire was raging like a poisonous dragon.
In order to devour the other half of the grassland in front of the Magyar army that had not been burned by wildfire, the scorching blazing wave also rushed towards them, and this scene directly stunned John Asen.
"What are you doing?!"
"That goes without saying, just put out the fire!" Jonos replied rather proudly, looking at the rising flames and the billowing black smoke with his hands on his hips.
However, John Asen looked at the Magyar people in front of him with the eyes of someone whose head was squeezed by a door. He always used water to put out fires, but never set fires in reverse! He looked confused and did not understand the other person at all.
But suddenly, a flash of inspiration in his mind made John Asen suddenly understand something.
"You mean..."
Before the Bulgars finished speaking, they were interrupted by Jonos in front of them, "Yes, since we can't extinguish the fire, let's change our thinking and help them add fuel to the fire. The most taboo thing in marching and fighting is falling behind."
I have fallen into the rhythm of others, and what I have to do now is to take back the initiative in this war."
Amidst the proud laughter of the Magyar people, they only saw the raging fire burning, and at this moment, the sky in the distance was also burned red by the fire, like a red lotus hell. And Fort Fracha is about to usher in
