    "Here" with Yang Zaixing's urging, Dingjun's actions became more unified. Although there were still many German remnants in the South Camp, a large number of Dingjun soldiers ignored this and directly attacked the Chinese camp.  At the intersection heading to the Zhongju Camp, they were finally met with desperate resistance by Scotto's troops. Captain Mytell blocked the intersection with two rows of shield soldiers.  When the soldiers arrived at the intersection, their speed slowed down.  The two sides quickly fought together, with a large number of German infantry holding shields and steel knives poking out of the gaps.  Since it was a sneak attack, it was obvious that the heavy shields that slowed down the marching speed could not be carried. Now facing the German infantry formation, the stationary gun without shields suffered a big loss from the start.  Lack of protection will inevitably lead to a heavy price. The previous attack was overwhelming, but now it is difficult to move forward. Every Dingjun soldier knows that this is an attack with no retreat. Once the attack is blocked and the Germans launch a counterattack, it will be a disaster.  It's dangerous.  Although a bridge was built on the top of Nushui Mountain, it could not allow a large number of soldiers to pass in a short time. This so-called back road was not safe.  Poof, a Japanese soldier bumped into the Germanic shield. His burly body and the ferocious impact force caused the shield to press down suddenly. Unfortunately, the Germanic steel sword was not polite either.  Turning the steel knife over from the side, the soldier groaned and fell into the crowd.  In order to break through this line of defense and rush into the Chinese army camp, the soldiers in Dinghe were like crazy. They hit the shields with their bodies, and some people's shoulders were dripping with blood.  The church soldiers were not battle-hardened Germanic troops. They were gradually frightened by the crazy fighting style of Dingmao. Myrtair saw this and was anxious in his heart. The formation retreated little by little. He held out his broad sword and shouted loudly.  He roared angrily, "Didn't we prepare kerosene before? Throw the kerosene across the way and burn these Eastern pagans to death." The church had made full preparations to rush to the aid of Festak City, including a lot of kerosene.  It's a pity that Fistak fell too quickly, and the prepared kerosene was useless.  At this time, Myrtair was forced to have no choice, so he came up with the damaging move of using kerosene. If you use kerosene in such a place, you might burn your own people. The two sides are already fighting together. Once they come into contact,  When it comes to kerosene, I can¡¯t even withdraw it even if I want to.  However, in order to prevent the army from collapsing, we had no choice but to give it a try. After Myrtair finished shouting, the people around him showed doubtful eyes, "Lord Myrtair, you can't do this. Once you use kerosene, you may be involved."  "Follow my orders, haven't you seen how fierce the Easterners' offensive is? If we don't find a way, they will rush into the Chinese camp sooner or later, and all of us will die by then."  If there is another way, say it now, if not, immediately carry out the military order." Myrtair didn't know the risks involved, but at this moment, how could he take so much care?  Others also looked helpless. Looking at each other, they couldn't think of any better ideas. In the end, they could only agree to Myrtair's plan.  A large number of fire oil cans were thrown to the opposite side, and a moment later, a fire broke out in the crowd.  Morin Orthodox led dozens of soldiers under his command to attack the Germanic formation. He could clearly feel that these church soldiers could no longer withstand it. There was still a big gap between the church soldiers and the elite soldiers like the Knights of the Holy Cross.  Yes, just as they were about to make progress, suddenly there were bursts of shrill howls from behind, and sheets of kerosene were burning. Countless Japanese soldiers were unprepared and covered in flames.  The cold wind raged, the fire became more intense, the smell of blood and burning, and the light of the fire illuminated the night like day.  Maureen couldn't help but tremble in her heart, her eyes were bloodshot, "These Germanic people actually used kerosene in this situation. These so-called church people are all beasts with human faces." Things like kerosene are very lethal, and the same  It is full of unpredictability. Even when defending a city, it must be used with caution, let alone when the two sides are facing each other on the ground.  Even though the Germans had tried their best to be careful and tried their best to put the fire oil far away, the unpredictable cold wind still swept the fire. Many Japanese soldiers were burned by the fire and screamed and crawled around.  Many people also rushed into the German army formation.  Most of the shields used by the Germans were wooden shields, which burned a lot when exposed to fire.  A German soldier gritted his teeth and held on to his shield, with a broadsword in his right hand ready to stab the invading enemy to death. Suddenly his eyes turned red and his ears were filled with inhuman screams.  It was a man, a man whose whole body was covered in fire. He rushed over like crazy. The fire man hugged the shield and merged into one instantly. The shield was ignited. The Germanic soldier was so frightened that he quickly let go of his hand.  Being burned alive by fire is a very cruel thing. No one expected that the people above would resort to such a method.  It was chaos, everything was in chaos. Myrtair's move of kerosene did have an effect, but it was short-lived. He underestimated the impact of kerosene. A large number of soldiers rushed into the German formation like fireballs.  , for a time the battlefield was filled with screams and curses.  Yang Zaixing's eyes were about to split, and the veins in his arms were swollen. He watched his subordinates being swallowed up by the fire one by one. The heartache was beyond words.Fortunately, these are elite soldiers, and they were not frightened by the scene in front of them.  With a sound of war horses neighing, Yang Zaixing raised his spear and rushed out fiercely. The remaining two thousand soldiers followed Yang Zaixing and launched a desperate charge against the Germanic front.  The hellish sea of ??fire not only damaged Ding's morale, but also tortured the conscience of the German soldiers. They didn't understand that the merciful God would allow such evil deeds. On the battlefield, it didn't matter how despicable the means were.  ?  With Yang Zaixing leading the charge, Myrtair finally couldn't hold it anymore, and a large number of German soldiers began to retreat towards the Chinese camp. As a result, the entire Zhongju camp was completely trapped in a passive situation of two sides.  Yelusha had led the army for many years, so how could he miss such a good opportunity? The cavalry finally showed its ferocious nature, especially the Ruifeng battalion cavalry who took the lead in launching a counterattack. The German soldiers were morally disorganized. When they retreated, they were bitten by a large number of ancient town cavalry.  The chaos gradually spread, directly causing the Zhongju camp to become full of loopholes.  Turik kept roaring, and in order to stabilize the situation, he even killed two captains with his own hands. Unfortunately, in the face of the overall situation, all efforts seemed so futile.  "Bang" Turik's eyelids twitched. He followed the sound and saw a German cavalry lying in a pool of blood, with the horse on top of him, and all of them were silent.  The fighting was still going on, but the Germans looked disorganized. Turik knew that in tonight's battle, the Church Corps was finished. There were elite cavalry from the East in front, and there was a sneak attack from behind. Only a Chinese army camp was left.  No matter how hard it is to organize a decent counterattack, "Notify everyone to retreat to the northwest toward Yumsburg. This is our only chance." Turik's words were full of helplessness and lack of confidence. He didn't know whether he could escape in the end.  How many people went out, but Yumsburg was the only hope. Withdrawing to Hohenzollern, for such a long distance, it is estimated that everyone would die under the sword of the Eastern cavalry.  Yumsburg is the last hope.  After the order to retreat was issued, the Church Corps launched the largest retreat on the top of the Furious Water Mountains. Turik was not a mature and seasoned battlefield commander after all. It was not easy for him to make a decisive decision to withdraw the troops.  A large number of church soldiers organized their own manpower to break out of the encirclement, which also resulted in a situation where they were fighting independently and the situation was very chaotic.  As long as they can survive, no one cares about other things. No one took the initiative to stay in the rear, and no one deliberately organized the North and South troops to join together. This was doomed to the tragedy of the Church Corps.  The Guzhen cavalry, including the Ruifeng Battalion cavalry, were all experienced on the battlefield. Chaos broke out in the Chinese camp, and the Germans began to break out. They did not block them wholeheartedly, but intentionally or unintentionally made way for them.  , with a way to survive, the Germans had no time to think about breaking out along the road. When they broke through the encirclement, the ancient town cavalry began to chase them one after another.  From the top of Raging Water Mountain to Yumsburg, it became a death passage.  This battle lasted for nearly ten hours and was not over until the end of the next day.  Yelusha had always been worried. When he saw that Yang Zaixing was safe and sound, he finally showed a smile and said, "Shaolie, this battle is really dangerous. If the Germans can hold on and don't mobilize a large number of troops from the south, then we will be in bad luck."  ".  Speaking of this battle, I still lament. This battle was too difficult. The Church Corps suffered such a disastrous defeat. Turik must bear a great responsibility. If it was Baisier or Sugus, they would definitely not  He would easily mobilize troops from the south to support the north. As a legion commander, Turik was still too immature.  Turik survived, but Myrtair was not so lucky. On the way to Yumsburg, he was chased by several ancient town cavalry and stabbed to death on horseback.  Of the 20,000 church corps, after one night, less than 5,000 men were left with fighting strength. It can be said that the church corps that Gregory worked so hard to build has ceased to exist in name only. After a disastrous defeat, the church soldiers were almost scared out of their wits. It was really a fight.  How much combat effectiveness it can exert has become a big question mark.  The battle on the top of Nushui Mountain not only defeated the Church Corps, but most importantly, completely eliminated the threat of Feistak. Since then, Zhao Yougong's army has gained a firm foothold in Feistak.  But in Yumsburg, it was gloomy and gloomy. There seemed to be a huge mountain above every Germanic person's head, making it suffocating.  What the Easterners want is not Festak, but the entire Kingdom of Saxony. Now that the entrance to the kingdom has been opened, the Easterners will not be silent for long, and will soon launch an attack on Yumsberg.  Before, most people still had some confidence in defending Fort Yum, but with the failure of the Church Corps, these confidences became extremely fragile.  In Fistak City, Zhao Yougong walked slowly on the ancient bluestone road. There were piles of grass clippings in the corners, and mottled dirt could be seen everywhere.  After the war, Festak was dirty and messy, but the scene in front of him did not affect Zhao Yougong's mood. The Church Corps was defeated. Festak was as stable as a mountain and could attack Yumsberg at any time. It was hard not to be happy.  Xiao Zhiyun stayed with her every step of the way. Looking at the slightly yellowish sunshine, she blinked gently.Eyes, "I wonder what Lothair would think. If he knew about the situation near Festak, would he be mad to death? People in Yumsburg are panicked, and there is nothing to be afraid of." "Would he be pissed off?  I'm so mad that no one knows, anyway, we are bound to win the Kingdom of Saxony, no one can stop us." At this point, there is no turning back, Zhao Yougong has never been the kind of timid person.  Whether you are militaristic or cruel, you never care what others say. As long as you can win, everything bad will become good.  Unlike Zhao Yougong¡¯s good mood, Lothair in Pusk City seemed extremely decadent. When Festak fell, Lothair realized how ridiculous he was.  He had been thinking about mobilizing reinforcements, thinking about Kypros, and thinking about the entire Istria Highlands, but after the fall of Festak City, all of this became a joke.  No matter how good the Istria Highlands are, it is not the Kingdom of Saxony. Saxony is its root.  The Kingdom of Saxony is not like the powerful Eastern Empire. Kypros is just a territory of the Eastern Empire. The worst thing they can do is give up Kypros. In short, it will not hurt their vitality. But as for Lothair, the Kingdom of Saxony is gone.  , what else does he have?  The Kingdom of Saxony cannot be compared with the Eastern Empire. It only takes one chaos to weaken it. The most ridiculous thing is that the dignified Saxons can only stare at the situation in Saxony.  At this point, Lothair had to admit how stupid he was. Those self-righteous cleverness ultimately harmed others and himself.  Orientals can abandon the city of Kiev if they want. That is because their families are rich enough, but Saxony, without such capital, cannot withstand the hardship.  What should we do?  Looking at the countless faces in the hall, Lothair showed a pleading look for the first time, "Everyone, is there any good way? If Saxony falls, it will be a fatal blow to the imperial soldiers, including the Hohenzollern and the Kingdom of Lorraine.  The Germanic Kingdom will become a piece of meat for the Easterners. No matter what method is used, Saxony must be preserved. "Anyone who is not a fool knows the importance of the Saxony Kingdom, but no one can change the situation at hand. Baissel and Suggs.  As well as Yorkelen and others all shook their heads with pale faces, and some even glanced elsewhere.  They couldn't bear to look at Lothair's desperate eyes. The fall of Festak was a shame for every Germanic people. Once Saxony fell, it would be the beginning of the decline of the empire.  However, rushing to the aid of Saxony is tantamount to wishful thinking. If you want to rush to aid Saxony, Festak City is the only way to go. Will the Easterners give them a chance?  The hall became eerily silent. After a long time, Baisier couldn't bear to say, "Your Majesty, with all due respect, Festak is guarding the entrance to Saxony, and the Easterners will definitely send heavy troops to guard it. With our current strength, we don't want to  The hope of attacking Festak is almost zero. Of course, if all the empire's ministries can do their best to cooperate with us in attacking the Easterners, there may be some hope. However, the principalities in the empire are not having a good time now, and it may be difficult to organize them.  How many troops are there to stop the Easterners? If there is any other way, the only thing left is to march eastward to Kiev and attack Vladimir. Now the Danes are sharpening their swords and showing signs of preparing for a large-scale invasion of Kipros.  If we can capture Vladimir and even the entire Suzdal River early, and cooperate with the Danes, we may not be able to deal a heavy blow to the Easterners. As long as the Easterners cannot let go of the interests of Vladimir and even Kipros, they will definitely find a way.  Returning to Kypros, in this way, the danger in Saxony may be relieved. "Baisir said that even he did not have much confidence. The Easterners had deployed a steel defense line on the Suzdal River to garrison Janmar and Ko.  The soldiers and horses in the United States are also close to the city of Vladimir. If you want to break through the Suzdal River defense line and capture the city of Vladimir, how easy is it?  One thing that is even more frustrating and disturbing is that with the fall of Festak City, the morale of the army has plummeted and hit the bottom. Many Saxon soldiers have begun to think about quitting. They only want to return to their hometown to protect their families. This kind of  If the situation forces them to attack the Suzdal River defense line, how much combat effectiveness can they exert.  Su Gesi usually didn't deal with Bai Sier and often sneered at Bai Sier, but this time, he still nodded heavily, "Your Majesty, what Mr. Bai Sier said may be a good idea. With this  With our strength, fighting Feistak City head-on is like throwing an egg at a stone. The Danes are our last bargaining chip. Please think again." Sugus also has his own selfish motives. The war in Istria has developed to this point.  This situation is beyond anyone's imagination.  The Kiev base camp relied on the three cities of Pusk plus the city of Kiev to forcibly pin the German army to the Istrian highlands, while the Eastern army broke into the territory of the Holy Empire.  Regardless of the outcome of the Istrian War, the decline of the Kingdom of Saxony is inevitable. In this case, who is willing to sacrifice their own interests, kick out the Saxons, and fight with the Eastern Army?  Sugus felt that by not retreating now, he was worthy of the Saxons led by Lothair.  Or Lord Dorle and the othersI will do my best, but I will definitely not let the eastern nobles fall into a bigger quagmire of war.  The words of Suggs and Baisier represented the thoughts of many German nobles. Lothair's mouth was full of bitterness. Now that things have happened, do you still blame others for not helping?  Once their own vital interests are involved, no one is willing to give too much.  After all, the Holy Roman Empire was not a truly unified empire. The major kingdoms fought for their own interests and were far less cohesive than the Eastern Empire.  At this moment, Lothair felt a little regretful. If he had been ruthless enough to unite the Danube nobles to weaken the eastern nobles, perhaps the Holy Empire would have been in a different situation.  Lothair didn't have much choice. He could only choose to march into the city of Kiev and find a way to capture the city of Vladimir. What the final result would be, he could only leave it to fate.  Every step Lothair took was so difficult, but Zhao Yougong didn't have so much trouble. After defeating the Church Corps, he only rested for five days before the 60,000-strong army left Festak City and began to march towards Youmus.  Advance to the fort.  Yang Zaixing and Yelusea led the cavalry as the vanguard, divided into two directions, north and south, and advanced hand in hand. On both roads, the Dingjun soldiers were overwhelming and did not encounter any decent resistance at all.  In order to support the war in the Istrian Highlands, almost all the troops in the Principality of Saxony were mobilized, and how could they still be able to cope with the attack from a certain enemy? Three days later, 60,000 troops gathered outside Yumsburg, and all parties were shocked for a while.  Surrounded by 60,000 troops, the city of Yumsburg looked shaky and might collapse at any time.  Turik looked at the army outside the city with a pale face. He looked frightened and held the battlements tightly with his hands, but he still couldn't stop his trembling heart.  The Eastern army is coming so fast, how long can Yumsburg hold on?
