On the open battlefield, the heavy cavalry of Epirus launched a frontal charge towards the Morian army, while the new army of Mystras stood ready. They relied on each other and bravely faced the enemy's iron hooves.

At the same time, the bugle sounded, and the chilling sound was low and long, like the cold wind coming from the north, making people tremble. Accompanied by it were the sound of trumpets, which were the attack signals blown by the Bulgarian cavalry from behind. At first hearing, it seemed more...

The sound was quiet, but accompanied by an uneasy rhythm. The tense atmosphere was pushed to its climax, and the Moria soldiers who were waiting in formation also felt extremely irritable, and felt a spasm in their stomachs and wanted to vomit.

But just as the Epirus heavy cavalry was about to collide with the Morian military formation, the next moment, the neatly arranged mobile fortresses spread out to both wings of the battlefield in an orderly manner, making way for the Bulgarian light cavalry charging from behind. It turned out that

The Ducasse family had no intention of charging into the battle head-on. After seeing the new Mystras army in neat military appearance, they immediately changed their minds.

What followed was a shower of arrows from the Bulgarian horse archers. Under the cover of the Epirus heavy armored cavalry in front, these light cavalry successfully entered the combat range. The Bulgarian bows and arrows shot towards Mori like hailstones.

Hundreds of branches, thousands of branches, countless branches were thrown at the runner-up army in an instant. The rain of arrows flew directly over the heads of the heavy infantry in the front row and fell into the crowd at the rear. Countless injured soldiers who fell to the ground began to cry, even though they were hiding behind their shields.

, but after all, not everyone was well-equipped, especially the light infantry in the rear who were caught off guard and were killed a lot. When the Bulgarians saw that one blow was successful, the horse archers put the next arrow on the bow string.

Seeing this scene, Justinian immediately reacted and asked the people around him to pass on the order, "Let Godric and the others attack!"

After the order was given, Moria also beat the war drums. The company captain Godric, who had been ready to attack at any time after receiving the signal, immediately waved the spear in his hand and shouted an order, followed by the hundreds of cavalry who were waiting to fight and obey the order.

There was a roaring response. This time Godric was not leading the group of mules and horses that fought in Agrinion before, but the Tambei cavalry all from Thessaly. These were the hussars sent by Count Tambei to support them.

, to be so honored to have the trust of Lord Justinian to lead them, young Godric was nervous and excited.

After receiving the signal to go to battle, the captain of the cavalry company Godric kicked the horse's belly, led his cavalry to join the battlefield, and rushed towards the Bulgarians who were harassing them in front of the formation. "Destroy them!" He galloped forward, taking the lead, and faced the people behind him.

The Tanbei cavalry shouted, "Remember! There is no need to keep prisoners! Kill all enemies!" After saying that, Godric, who was riding a tall horse, rushed into the loose Bulgarian light cavalry with thunderous momentum, firing his spear directly.

They thrust forward and were unstoppable. Seeing this, Tanbei's cavalry also followed suit. The cavalry quickly enveloped the unprepared Bulgarians in the smoke and dust raised by the charge on the battlefield.

For a moment, the Bulgarian cavalry who fell into chaos could only give up riding and shooting and chose to fight with the Tambei cavalry. The two sides drew out their long swords and sabers from their waists and fought each other. At this time, the Epirus heavy infantry who followed came

They were already in position, and when they saw that the Bulgarians were at a disadvantage in the battle, they immediately joined in.

Of course, the new army of Mystras in front could not do nothing. Under the command of Justinian, soldiers wearing heavy armor formed a phalanx to support the Tambei cavalry, and fought with Epirus who came up at the same time.

The two armies engaged in battle. Soldiers from both sides held long spears, pierced the enemy's formation and launched frantic attacks, trying to tear open the gaps in the opponent's formation. For a while, the two armies fell into a stalemate. Although the Ducas family and the Bulgarians were outnumbered,

had the upper hand, but Justinian's soldiers relied on their tenacity to withstand the opponent's attack and gained the upper hand. It seemed that the outcome could not be determined by fighting on the battlefield in a short period of time. The only hope was to fight in part of the battlefield.

Can tip the balance of victory.

The heavy cavalry under Emperor Mikhail aimed at the left wing of Moria's army that had not yet engaged in battle. Unlike the elite Renaissance heavy cavalry on the right, which was pressing down on the formation, and the unmoving Mystras new army in the center, Justin

On the left side of Ni's army, the garrison sent turned out to be a group of barbarians with poor equipment and scattered formations. Not only did they have no cavalry support, they didn't even have archers.

This is simply a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If they can break through the left wing of the Moria army, then once the opponent collapses, they will rush in with all their strength and encircle the rear of the Moria people from the side.

Without further ado, the Epirus heavy cavalry immediately prepared to attack without asking Emperor Michael in the rear for instructions.

"For the sake of His Majesty Ducas, follow the direction of my spear!" the cavalry captain issued an attack order to his men.

"The Eagle Banner protects you!"

The Epirus people chanted in unison on their war horses, lined up neatly to form a pig's mouth formation, and charged towards the weak defense in their eyes.

At this time, it was the Albanian mountain people who were defending the left wing under Justinian's arrangement. They formed a loose hedgehog formation and held a variety of weapons - these were their trophies, and the price promised was to assume the defense here.

Under the impact of the Epirus cavalry, the Albanian hedgehog formation collapsed as expected, and the mountain people retreated one after another, unwilling to fight desperately.

Seeing that the barbarians were defeated at the first touch, the Epirus cavalry were overjoyed. They did not expect that the other party would send this ragtag group of people to guard here. It seemed that the Morian army was at the end of its rope. The victorious horsemen blew their horns excitedly while chasing.

It is a signal to the friendly forces in the rear, telling them to follow immediately.

"Your Majesty, we have won!"

When they heard the news of the breakthrough on the front line from the sound of the trumpet, the jesters and servants around Mikhail Dukas shouted long live and congratulated their Majesty, and the emperor's face also showed a proud look. It seemed that Chasz

Justinian's army was more vulnerable than he expected. No longer hesitating, Mikhail immediately dispatched reserves to attack, and at the same time notified the Bulgarian cavalry to attack the battlefield. As long as the troops on Justinian's flanks were completely defeated,

In a military formation, after your own troops circle around, victory on the battlefield is only a matter of time.

The people of Epirus, who thought they had won a complete victory, were very proud, but what they didn't know at the moment was that all this was part of Justinian's plan. Looking at his left wing, Bogdani led
