At this time, William's army began to slowly attack the hillside, rushing straight towards the British shield wall. When the two armies were approaching, William ordered the crossbowmen in front to start attacking, although the crossbowmen were at a distance.

Attack, but because William's army was at a disadvantage, it did not cause too many casualties to Khalid's army. The very heroic Khalid army threw spears, javelins, and stones at William's army.

blocks and other items, like a violent storm. Precisely because William's army was in a low-lying area, the British army caused great damage to William's army. Many of William's soldiers were not pierced by javelins and their bodies were covered with blood.

He was hit by stones and was reduced to a human shape. The whole ground was littered with pieces of flesh and even broken limbs. The scene was extremely bloody and extremely cruel.

At this point, William ordered the left army of the army to attack the hillside, but the British army suddenly attacked from above. Under such circumstances, William's left army was immediately defeated and then fled! The escape of the left army was also

It had a great impact on the army in the middle. So William rearranged the formation, and then divided the cavalry into small teams and tried to break through the shield wall. However, the British infantry held tomahawks and beat the Norman cavalry off their horses.

, and fled in defeat in an instant.

At this time, William saw that he could not break through the shield wall, so he decided to feign retreat to lure the British troops away from the hillside terrain. William first asked the infantry to withdraw to a safe area, and then let the cavalry lure the British troops.

At this time, Harold, who had always had the upper hand, saw that William's army suffered such heavy casualties and began to retreat. He thought this was a great opportunity to eliminate William. So Harold ordered the entire army to press forward and attack the enemy.

He quickly pursued the enemy forward. William led his army and continued to retreat, retreating from the valley to the hillside, while the infantry moved to both sides. After William waited until his army occupied a condescending and favorable terrain, he immediately issued an order for a counterattack.

At this time, the British shield wall was full of holes due to movement, so the Norman army attacked the British army in one go. Harold did not expect such a result at all. He was caught off guard and was hacked to death on the spot. The British army

It can be said that now we have lost our commander-in-chief, so we were immediately defeated. We were killed by William's army, with corpses everywhere and rivers of blood. The winner of this battle was William.

Then William robbed along the way, approaching London, which was completely unstoppable. At this time, the king of England was dead, so London had long been prepared to surrender. At this point, William got his wish and boarded the British

throne.

In fact, this is just like what we said before. There is no right or wrong in this world. All wars are caused by selfish desires. In the end, history is written by the winner, so any comments are irrelevant.

It is biased towards the winner. But if we want to analyze this matter thoroughly, it is not difficult to see that in the process of obtaining the throne, William was an absolute bandit, and he was also the bandit leader holding the papal flag.

He carried out such atrocious acts of burning, killing and looting along the way, and eventually he sat on the British throne.

But after William took the throne, he did something rather outrageous, that is: Britain was originally a society that could be said to be slavery, based on belief in gods, but now William has greatly changed this situation.

William implemented the feudal system in England, and it was completely transplanted, so Britain established a centralized institution at this time.

From here, it is not difficult to see that the cultural system of the United Kingdom at this time was completely higher than the cultural systems of all surrounding countries, which also led to the extremely rapid development of the United Kingdom.

But let’s not talk about the UK now. After all, rapid development cannot escape the topic of war. All the building factors of our human beings started from the lie of our ancient ancestors at the beginning of this book.

It's that sentence that we are the ones protected by the lion. I don't know if you still remember that paragraph, but what I want to say now is that from that time on, we humans completely fell into the vortex of war, and

To this day, all of us humans are constantly discussing the topic of war and looking for all kinds of valid reasons for war. In fact, we have never reflected on the fact that war is only caused by the expansion of our human desires, that is, selfishness.

Intensification!

So now let’s take a look at what other empires on earth looked like during this period. They were also victims of war, victims of culture and even the progress of our human history. They can all be classified as sacrifices due to our selfishness.

First, let’s take a look at a victim on the land of Europe. The people here are called Slavs, and they are also a branch of our Homo sapiens. They were just displaced from our huge family of Homo sapiens to a relatively remote place. As we mentioned before

, some people went to settle at the seaside, some went to the edge of the desert or even settled in the desert, while some people went to settle in colder places, etc.

The Slavs are a people with a very ancient history living in Europe. They are very tall and hardworking. Around the 8th and 9th centuries AD, they established many principalities centered on cities. This is different from the previous ones.

The composition of the Greek Empire was almost the same model, and the Slavs' rulers were dukes, who could also be called grand dukes. They had many cities, among which the Principality of Novgod in the north was the most powerful.

At the end of the ninth century AD, Grand Duke Oleg of the Principality of Novgod learned from the burning, killing and looting methods in other empires and felt that this method was very easy to obtain resources and slaves, so he himself also had inflated desires and became even more ambitious.

Then Oleg actively prepared the army, and then led the army south, captured Kiev, and massacred the civilians in Kiev. Of course, the high-ranking officials, nobles and even the rich could not escape death.

This extremely cruel method was used to obtain resource slaves and even land.

Despite this, Oleg was still not satisfied, so he attacked and occupied many other places near here. Anyway, the methods were as bloody and cruel as before, and finally established Kievan Rus. The word Rus is the self-proclaimed name of the Slavs, and then Oleg

Leg became the first Grand Duke of Rus. In the end, because of the current strength of the country, Oleg started another war of foreign aggression, so the land slowly began to grow again, the resources also increased, and the slaves also became

More, in the end, Grand Duke Oleg made the country of Kievan Rus a powerful country in Europe.

Oleg's life was still very wealthy in the second half of his life. It can also be said that he had reached the point where he could indulge in extravagance and debauchery. As for Oleg's death, it was Igor who continued to take office. And this Igor

He is not a very honest prince. How should we describe this matter? How about we compare a few examples?

For example, China’s Qin Shihuang. When modern people think of Qin Shihuang, the first thing that comes to mind is Qin Shihuang’s unparalleled achievements in unifying the seven kingdoms! But unifying the seven kingdoms was also based on war and required countless civilians.

Death. For example, Gongsun Qi, a very powerful general that all Chinese people know today, is also known as Bai Qi. In the Battle of Changping, Bai Qi buried 450,000 Zhao soldiers alive in one battle. How incredible is this?

How cruel? If this is understood from a humanitarian perspective, this really cannot be justified. But when our descendants evaluate Qin Shihuang or Bai Qi, they mainly evaluate them from this aspect, which proves that they are very

sharp.

Then back to our topic, it is not difficult to see from this example that in fact, all generals and even emperors like to make achievements, and then be so-called famous all over the world, or even admired by all generations. But during this period

, one of the easiest ways to make one's name famous all over the world, and even admired by all generations, is to make meritorious deeds, which is another understanding of people's meritorious deeds during this period. This understanding made the territory of the empire very vast.

Or how many countries he destroyed, how many people he killed, etc. Use these factors to determine whether the person is very powerful. For example, Alexander the Great we talked about before, he was a very crazy murderer, but he was different from the complete

The difference with the murderer is that he does not destroy the local cultural system in the end.

In short, we only need to understand that if we want to be famous all over the world, be admired by all generations, or be respected by everyone at that time, this war can undoubtedly achieve all this in an instant, and the war can also achieve the wealth brought by burning, killing and looting.

Quality of life, that is, snatching away all the wealth and even resources from the civilians of other empires, and making it your own.

And until our modern day, this ideological concept has never made any changes. So far, it goes without saying that Igor during this period. He took office and became the Grand Duke. He now has power and also has

The basic conditions for launching a foreign war, so Igor also wants to be respected by everyone like his predecessor Oleg, and even let future generations remember his existence at all times, and then actively launch a foreign war, in this way

ways to realize his heart's desire.

But Igor is messing around. He is very cruel in exploiting the wealth of the civilians in his own country, and then supplies the army, and then leads the army to conquer foreign countries. Moreover, Igor also has many methods, which has led to
