    ,nbsp;

    At that time, the vast majority of Swiss people had lost their combat effectiveness.  And the few remaining Swiss were no match for the wolf-like Norman army. The Normans originally thought that this battle would be easy. Some even thought that as long as their own army rushed forward.  Then the Swiss would surrender immediately, crying and shouting, asking them to give them a bite of food.

    But in fact, this is not the case.

    At that time, General Fall also imagined that this would be an extremely easy war.  The Imperial Army would cut through melons and vegetables to defeat the Swiss, in order to prevent these would-be prisoners from suffering too many casualties.  General Fall did not send long-range artillery and crossbow troops to shoot before the war, as before.  to weaken the enemy.  Instead, the infantry of the Norman Empire was directly dispatched to attack.

    ¡°It was said to be launching an attack, but in fact, General Fall thought, it was just accepting prisoners.

    However, something completely unexpected happened.  After the Swiss people encountered the imperial attack.  There was no surrender, not even the powerlessness to resist as some people imagined.  They roared like crazy, and still resisted the Norman attack with desperate and desperate fighting methods.

    This surprised the Norman army.  And at this moment of surprise.  The Swiss had already caused certain casualties to the Norman forwards.  As a result, the Norman soldiers began to become angry - these slaves, these dirty mercenaries.  How dare you resist under such circumstances?  !  What a disrespect for our great Norman army!

    So, the Norman soldiers gave up their plan to capture the prisoners alive.  Start fighting with it.  As the battle progressed, the Man soldiers were surprised to find.  Not only did the opponent's momentum remain unchanged, but in fact, their physical strength was not exhausted due to hunger and thirst as the Normans thought.  Still maintains strong fighting power.

    This made the Normans very confused. Where did these people get their strength?  This physical strength and morale are not the same thing.  Not just anyone can open the genetic lock by gritting his teeth and stamping his feet.  The Swiss had already run out of food and supplies. How did he survive these days?  !  It¡¯s really unbelievable¡âIt¡¯s been six days

    Of course, just think about this kind of thing for a while.  It's still war time.  You can wait until the battle is over before talking about anything else. There are also some experienced veterans or smarter commanders who vaguely guessed the answer.  The look in the eyes of those Swiss people was complicated.  It was a look that was mixed with anger, confusion, and a hint of fear.

    "Damn it!" General Fall shouted angrily.  I could hear the cries of killing from the top of the mountain.  Enduring.  Then I used the telescope to look at the situation on the mountain.  General Fall knew that he had gone astray this time. He vaguely regretted that he had gone astray this time.  "I don't know how many people are going to die", the general also secretly vowed: Be careful in the future.  The soldiers are in danger and the battle is dangerous, and what he said on the field is indeed correct.  But don't be careless

    I want to understand it. I want to understand it.  But once the war has started, it cannot stop.  General Fall made a prompt decision and sent reinforcements up the mountain.  Fight to the death with the Swiss!

    Following General Farr¡¯s order, the Norman army once again dispatched four thousand-man infantry and assault infantry troops to attack up the mountain road. They watched the Norman army, holding the half-phoenix flag high, struggling to climb up.  Then there was another fight with the Swiss.  Both sides suffered heavy casualties.  General Fall secretly said that he would not take any prisoners in this battle!  Kill them all to comfort the heroic spirits of our own soldiers!

    In this way, after receiving reinforcements, the Norman army continued to advance.  Gradually push their front forward.  The Swiss soldiers, although very desperate.  And unexpectedly saved his physical strength.  But it was still no match for the Norman army.  Their position was continuously compressed, and finally had to be squeezed into a group on the top of the hill, which was not a small gentle slope.

    There are more than 6,000 Swiss people in total, densely packed together on that small gentle slope.  They are sitting next to each other and crowded together.  When there was almost no space around them, if a shell exploded among them, it would definitely cause huge casualties.  And if a crossbow shoots at them.  There is no need to aim at all.  Almost every arrow hits the target!

    But the problem is that now, almost all the soldiers fighting in the mountains are melee combat units.  Needless to say, the Swiss are as good at bows and arrows as their founding father William Tell.  Natural archers who can shoot an apple on a person's head are naturally very few.  The Normans originally thought this was a battle to accept prisoners.  Therefore, all infantry were dispatched at the beginning.

    Next, the infantry sequence encountered a fierce counterattack by the Swiss.  To prevent the front from being torn apart.  Let the Swiss people fight back and such outrageous things happen?General Fall sought stability.  Then another group of infantry and assault infantry were sent up.

    that's all.  Almost both sides have no long-range auxiliary attacks.  And the top of the mountain was all occupied by these infantrymen who were wielding swords and axes and risking their lives to fight.  It is too difficult to send a remote one up again.  General Fall was also afraid that if a certain infantry unit was to come down at this time, the other party would not be able to launch a fierce attack there.  It would be bad to break the siege of the Norman army.  Therefore, we dare not make too many adjustments to the frontline troops.

    So, both sides just wasted it.  A life for a life.  Fighting a thorough war of attrition.  Only Jean Farr
