At this time, the three warships led by Captain Kidd also arrived at the battlefield and crashed several pontoons of the Saxons. At the same time, they started to burn the wooden boats on the Leda River ...
公 The Duke of Saxony was surprised, but there was nothing he could do. Because his soldiers, unable to hit the East Frisian sailors on board, could only watch Captain Kidd with his men raging on the river ...
He was even worse off. After completely destroying the Saxon's pontoon and ferry, Captain Kidd ordered the shelling of the Saxon battlefield from the rear ...
You know, there are a few 12-pound guns on the battleship, and their range can reach as far as 1500 meters ...
Sure enough, soon, the artillery on the ship began to dominate ...
The artillery on board, in addition to the few 12-pound cannons, there are also many old bronze guns after the installation-no way, these three ships are all small boats, and it is the limit to hold a few 12-pound guns. Others , Can only continue to use the old less powerful "Fran machine gun".
After the start of the puppet artillery, the formation of the Saxony army was chaotic, which also caused the morale of the Saxony army to plummet. You know, the feeling of being pinched back and forth is very bad. Moreover, those soldiers at the end are basically conscripts, very easy to collapse ...
Fortunately, the Duke of Saxony sent the knights to bounce in time, so that the last 5000 recruits did not collapse. However, one shell accidentally broke the battlefield balance ...
The hit rate of ship-borne artillery is very low because of the hull of the ship caused by recoil when firing. However, some luck factors are not excluded ...
For example, this time, as soon as a 12-pound shell fired, it happened to fly over the head of the Saxon army, hitting the wooden high stand where the Duke of Saxony stood among the crowd ...
Of course, the Duke of Saxony was not killed. However, he was scared to death. Due to the collapse of the high platform, the Duke of Saxony, frightened by Dunnitz's help, fled into the desert and walked forward.
However, because of the collapse of the high platform, the banner of the Wetin family as the handsome flag inserted by the Duke of Saxony on the high platform also fell down ...
Coincidentally, Marin saw this scene through a telescope ...
不是 It's not that he hasn't seen the Duke of Saxony survive, but what he thinks he should do ...
So, he remembered Zhu Xu from the Battle of 淝 水 ...
Then he decisively picked up the earth trumpet and shouted:
"The Duke of Saxony is dead in the artillery! The flag of Saxony is broken!"
Marin's soldiers in the first square are all his confidants, following Marin shouting slogans. So, conditionedly, the soldiers of the First Matrix shouted neatly:
"The Duke of Saxony is dead in the artillery! The flag of Saxony is broken!"
"The Duke of Saxony is dead in the artillery! The flag of Saxony is broken!"
Uh ...
I was shocked by the Saxon soldiers who were confronting the Marin army and looked back ...
The tall Saxon soldiers saw in horror-the high platform where their Duke stood originally collapsed, and the handsome flag was invisible ...
Then, the Saxon confidence collapsed ...
布 Albrecht, Duke of Saxony, also heard the shouting of Marin's first side, his face changed greatly, knowing the power of the other party's words. So he started screaming loudly:
"I am alive, this Duke is alive!"
Alas, this is useless. The soldiers around him knew the truth naturally. However, those Saxon fighters who were far ahead were frightened and really thought that the Duke of Saxony was shot dead. Moreover, at this time there was no second wooden high platform for the Duke of Saxony to board. Because, this time across the river, they only brought a wooden platform for observation of the war situation.
As a result, many Saxon regular infantrymen who were still hurting each other with the soldiers of Marin, turned around and ran ...
In their opinion, the Duke has died in battle, and this battle is still a P?
Then the Saxons collapsed ...
Standing on the high platform, Marin also saw that the army of Saxony did not seem to collapse. However, that's not a problem ...
Marin quickly ordered:
"Lancer across the trenches, attack forward and chase the enemy!"
"Musketeer, run to the sides, follow, and cover the spearman with fire on the side!"
At this point, the two trenches happened to be filled by the Saxon infantry, saving both Marin. Moreover, jumping from behind the oblique wood picket to the front is much easier than jumping from the front to the back. One was inverse, the other was smooth ... but it was difficult to climb back after jumping out, so the Marin infantry did not dare to jump out. But now they have the upper hand, and it's okay to jump out ...
As a result, the spearmen under Marin climbed over the oblique wooden stakes, crossed two trenches, and began to hunt down the collapsed Saxon infantry ...
Under the army's pursuit, the panicked Saxony infantry began to attack the front ...
At first, Marin was anxious to order the charge in order to drive these collapsed former Saxons to attack their home ...
You know, the Saxons now have a lot of Cavaliers. If the infantry charged like this, it would easily lead to the charge of the opponent's knight.
However, there are thousands of enemy troops fleeing back by themselves, then it is different. Enemy knights will be tangled and don't know what to do ...
公 The Duke of Saxony also regained control of the situation at the same time. When he saw his former army flee, he was taken aback. As a veteran, he is well aware of the dangers of a shock. So he stood on the high platform and shouted:
"I'm alive, I'm alive! Go back and stop the enemy!"
However, it's too late ...
Although many Saxon infantry turned around and wanted to resist. However, the others were still fleeing back, breaking up their temporary stand. So, these people were surrounded by others, and continued to rush to the front ...
At this moment, the black shirt knight attacked again, unable to drive the Saxon infantry who wanted to run to the side to prevent them from rushing to the side to bypass the front ...
Through the cover of thousands of Saxon infantry in front, Marin's lancers approached the Saxon army and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with those Saxon knights ...
However, the East Frisian spearmen who had been instructed in advance did not poke the knight himself, but crouched down and stabbed the horse's belly with the spear ...
There is no armor on the abdomen of the warhorse.
Then, the Saxony knights fell down and became infantry. However, the Cavaliers are also very difficult to deal with. Because, their armor is high, and their spears can't die ...
But this is not to be overwhelmed by East Frisian soldiers, a group of soldiers with long-handled warhammers appeared ...
The spearmen first clamped the knight's weapons with many spears, and then the warrior holding the warhammer went in through the gap and smashed his head with a sledgehammer ...
After some melee, the resistance organized by the Saxony knights was suppressed by the strong East Frisian army ...
Helpless, the Duke of Saxony knew that the situation had gone and had to start running away ...
However, the pontoon on the Leda River behind was damaged, and many ships were burned. In desperation, the Duke of Saxony, with a group of the most loyal knights, ran horses eastward ...
As for the last 5000 Saxon conscripts, the Knights could not stand it, they immediately collapsed, and many people simply surrendered directly, and some people fled eastward ...
Marin didn't panic, first sent people to watch over those who surrendered, and then led the army to the east. Because he knew that there was a relatively new river dug in the east, which could block the pace of reloading the knights ...
As a result, after leaving 2000 people to guard the captives, Marin took the rest of the army and, under the cover of the black shirt knight, hurriedly pursued to the east ...
However, Marin underestimated the wisdom of the Saxons. The three-kilometer-long, 5-meter-wide river he dug did sink several Saxon knights on the road, unable to extricate themselves. However, the Duke of Saxony is also a decisive old man. When he saw that Marin was about to catch up, he immediately ordered:
"Everyone took off the horse armor and spread it on the bottom of the river!"
The accompanying Saxony knights stunned, but they all performed ...
河 The river is not deep, only 1.5 meters deep. If the silt at the bottom of the river is not too soft, it is easy for the warhorses and people to sink into it, but it is actually nothing. When the riverbed was covered with metal armor, it really did not let the warhorses and people sink into the mud.
Then, the Duke of Saxony and his accompanying knights waded across the river and fled ...
马 When Marin brought the men around, the Duke of Saxony and his hundreds of knights were already far away. Moreover, in order to facilitate the road, the decisive Duke of Saxony ordered the knights to take off their plate armor, each carrying only a knight rapier, so that they could escape lightly ...
Marin sighed, he did not expect the Duke of Saxony to be so decisive, even the important horse armor and plate armor said to abandon it. This was rare in the generally poor Middle Ages. You know, a lot of hard-nosed aristocrats, sometimes, for a set of plate armor, can bet against people ...
However, Marin also underestimated the Duke of Saxony. This old man was originally a treacherous giant. Moreover, there is a wealth of existence among the nobility. These horse armors and plate armors are valuable, but they are not in the eyes of the Duke of Saxony. If he was caught by Marin, that would be bad luck.
The tartar falls in the hands of others, and does not open up with the other lion? You know, when King Richard I of England returned to his country, he was unfortunately captured by the Shen Luo Empire. Then, Emperor Shen Luo VI not only forced him to kneel to loyalty, but also extorted a huge ransom of 150,000 marks ...
You know, it was 1194. At that time, the gold and silver coins were still very valuable. Unlike today's coins, adulteration is not as powerful. Richard I's 150,000 mark ransom, that's sterling silver equal to 100,000 British pounds ...
If he was caught by Marin, the Duke of Saxony would bet his ransom would be very high. Probably, Marin will also demand the cessation of West Frisian ...
After weighing the pros and cons, the Duke of Saxony felt that he had to run away to avoid being severely blackmailed by Marin ...
Uh ...
Marin side, after the Duke of Saxony fled lightly ~ www.novelhall.com ~ also chased away, but turned around and cleaned up those Saxony knights who were fleeing. Because, after the Duke of Saxony and his knights are light on the battlefield, the black shirt knights under Marin will not have any advantage in mobility, and they will not catch up ...
At this time, these fleeing Saxon knights were scrambling around the battlefield like headless flies, but they could not escape. Because the ships crossing the river were destroyed, Marin's army was on the east, the Ames River on the west, and Lyle City on the north ...
After half a day's cleanup, nearly two thousand Saxon knights surrendered to Marin on the battlefield, but what made Marin depressed was that many Saxon knights took off their plate armor decisively in order not to be captured, abandoning the war horse, despite the cold water Relying on my body stick, I ran across the river ...
This time, Marin did not send anyone to kill those surrendered knights. After all, he will mix in the noble world in the future. Killing the opponent's knight during the battle, even if condemned, will not be too big. But if he kills the prisoner, or kills the knight captive, then he does not have to confuse in Europe ...
清理 After clearing the battlefield, Marin also found that there were 15,000 Saxon civilians across the Leda River, and he began to run away ...
For these people, Marin is also very interested. 15,000 strong men, even if they do not have combat effectiveness, they can be used as hard labor. You know, Marin is just digging a ditch to drain water from the swampy areas in the country, and he needs a lot of labor.
After that, he ordered the rebuilding of the pontoon, sending troops across the river, and chasing down the people ...
Alas, just after Marin had given the order, he received a report that Emden was surrounded ...
In desperation, Marin had to send some soldiers across the river to apprehend the husbands, and another to detain the prisoners of war. The rest, followed him back to Emden ...
