Eagle Flag of Epirus - v8 Chapter 104.24

“The Eagle Flag of Epirus (

The sky was just getting bright. When the Turkic light cavalry in Ankara came out to investigate, they were surprised to find that the heavily guarded Latin army camp yesterday was actually empty at this time.

“It seems to have left at night.” Looking at the quiet camp gate, the Turkic soldiers speculated, because when they came to look at it yesterday evening, they saw the smoke rising.

“No, look at this pile of ashes. Obviously it has just been extinguished.” Another soldier jumped off the horse. He ignored the obstacles of his companions and pushed open the unlocked wooden gate. As soon as he walked in, he saw a pile of embers. Uncooled sparks are jumping on it.

“Could it be that what the Greeks from Trabizon said is true.” Looking at this scene, several soldiers looked at each other. The purpose of their trip was to confirm the authenticity of the news, but I never thought that a few days ago The still aggressive Latin army actually retreated.

“It’s weird, don’t ambush us!”

The suspicion investigating scout courageously went to the unguarded camp, only to see that it was really empty inside, and even the military tent was not taken away. It seemed that the Latins were leaving in a hurry. The Turkic cavalry, who was alert at the beginning, suspected it was a trap, and shot a few arrows inside but there was no response. In this way, the information notified by the suspicious Greek last night is true!

In that case, several scouts looked at each other, and if it was true, then the matter must be notified to Sultan Kehosru as soon as possible.

“This matter has to be notified to Sultan as soon as possible!”

“Yes, don’t let those Latins go far.”

As soon as they discussed and summed up, the excited Turkic soldiers immediately put aside their work, and rushed back to Ankara to inform their Sultan Kehoslu I of the great news. If it is true as the intelligence says, the Latins who are retreating in large numbers must have no defense at this time. This is the perfect time for them to counterattack. The Turks, who have long been unable to restrain their feelings of revenge, will rush forward and dare not delay for a while.

…

On the Anatolian Plateau, the December winter makes the inland areas extremely cold. Although there is still no snow, the yellow wasteland is already empty, which makes the crowds marching in darkness the most eye-catching sight. .

It is the army of the Roma Sultan’s palace and the Nicaea army that are walking together. For the Turkic people of the Roma Sultan, this is already commonplace. They are the best at traveling long distances, but they come like the wind. They rely on this ability. They defeated the Crusaders and other nomadic tribes, and even defeated the crusade army of the Roman emperor. But now they are fighting side by side with the Roman army to deal with the Latins, whom they all hate. After all, both sides have had a deep holiday. Needless to say, the Roman remnants of Nicea, many of them escaped from Constantinople, wanting to restore the capital, and the Sultan of Roma is fighting against those The Latins under the banner of the Crusader hated them even more. During the first crusade, they had to surrender the city of Nicaea that they had already acquired and become a vassal of Alex I. This time the Latins even attacked. Arriving in Ankara, Kehoslu I vowed to let the invaders come back and forth.

“Gazi, who gave me in the name of the true god, blessed and defeated the enemy! Although the Franks were extremely vicious, the true **** gave us the strength to make us face the army of Kafir without fear!” Kai said in front of the battle. The Sultan of Khoslu encouraged the morale of his soldiers. After receiving reliable information and reports from the scouts, the Sultan consciously secured the victory and led the army out of Ankara.

After receiving the sultan’s blessing, the Roma Turks were brave enough to speed up their march, trying to annihilate the enemy who invaded the territory and feed the wolves in the wasteland with their corpses.

“Your Majesty Theodor, congratulate us on our upcoming victory! I believe that within a few days, these Franks will be driven back to the sea, and Nicaea will return to your country.” Sultan Said triumphantly to Emperor Theodor Lascaris on the side. He sent people to check the traces left by the Latin Empire army. The rut and horse marks were very messy, and it seemed that the situation was really urgent. In addition, the stove in the camp was also cold, and it was certain that the opponent would not even have time to eat when they retreated. Such a chaotic, hungry and cold army is undoubtedly the fish on their chopping board in the wasteland.

The co-ruling emperor Lascaris also quickly complimented: “If it weren’t for the strong support of the Sudan, I would rebuild the country and rebuild the country. After the event is completed, I will certainly not be stingy and thank you in order to get together.”

“Haha, it’s so good. I believe that His Majesty Alex III should be coming soon.” The proud Sultan Kehoslu said with a smile. How respectful Reese put it.

Theodore Lascaris smiled very reluctantly~www.mtlnovel.com~ He knew that even if he agreed this time, he was able to restore his country as a wedding dress for others. He suffered a sudden attack in Nicaea, the strong Nicaea The city wall was broken without attack, he could only choose to join the Roma Sultanate, but the price was to give way to his father-in-law Alexei III. Although unwilling in my heart, don’t choose.

This time Sultan Kehoslu has made a huge profit. Only his palace tent has dispatched three thousand horses and archers and six thousand soldiers, plus several surrounding tribes sent by the tribes to support and the Nicais. The remnants were defeated, and the mighty 24,000 soldiers set out from Ankara and divided into two groups to pursue and encircle the retreating Latin Empire army.

Kehoslu and Theodor led 15,000 people to follow the Latin army along the Sarria River. Along the way, they had eaten several small Latin troops that had fallen behind. The other 9,000-man army is here, and the Armenian and Kurdish mercenaries who are personally led by Emperor Alexei III, who are loyal to him, are best at fighting in the mountains. Their goal is to cross the Koroglu valley and outflank Latin. The road for people to retreat.

As expected, the two armies are about to join forces, and they should surround the retreating Latins at the junction of the wilderness and mountains not far in front. Sultan Kehosru, who was consciously holding a winning ticket, was holding a golden scepter in his hand and commanding his army to move forward, without knowing that all their actions at this time had already been exposed to the sight of others.

…

“There is still seventy miles away. We can send someone to inform His Majesty Henry that our goal is almost approaching.” In the bushes in the wilderness, a well-disguised Latin scout has been squatting here for a day, and when he Seeing the mighty new moon army rushing through the great wasteland, it immediately sent out homing pigeons to inform the Latin army that had been waiting in front…
