In such a fierce battle, the Germans suffered heavy losses, and the Dingguo army guarding the river bank was not much better. The German soldiers rushed forward desperately, especially the soldiers and horses guarding the bridge. They had already lost more than 2,000 people in the face of repeated attacks by the Germans. Soldiers and horses. Corpses lay on both sides of the stone bridge. The cold wind passed by, leaving behind stiff blood clots. War is always cruel, and kind people will only fall sooner. Sugus also saw it and was anxious in his heart, "Stone Bridge, yes, it is a stone bridge. As long as we can capture the stone bridge, our soldiers and horses will continue to reach the other side. How much kerosene is there in the army? I don¡¯t believe it if they all throw themselves at the stone bridge and have people rush over them with cans of fire oil. These Orientals are not afraid.¡± Sugus is a complete lunatic. He advocates violence and the methods he comes up with are more direct. . But at the moment, Baisier had no good solution, so he could only try it first. A total of 500 German death squads were gathered together. Each of these people held a can of kerosene in their hands. Looking at these young faces, Sugus's heart Some can't bear it, and I don't know how many of these people can survive, "Warriors, the Easterners are trying their best to stop us, which shows the importance of Vladimir. As long as we take the city of Vladimir, we can overlook the entire city. In the interest of Kypros, the Easterners will be in chaos by then, and the crisis in Saxony will be resolved. We must take down this stone bridge. For the sake of the Holy Empire and our lives, we must take down the stone bridge. Attack Vladimir, the glory of God is with us, we will be invincible, kill!" Sugus pulled out his broadsword, and there was a chill in the weak sunlight. Hundreds of German soldiers were infected, and they all howled! cried out. It was still this stone bridge, and the Germans once again organized men to rush over, but this time, the soldiers of the Dingguo Army guarding the bridge clearly felt something different. These people all held jars, like a group of mad dogs desperate for their lives. The commander-in-chief, Yao Tanye, felt a shiver in his heart and woke up suddenly, "It's a fire oil tank. Quick, everyone retreats. Longbowmen cover the attack. Don't let these mad dogs rush over." What idea did the Germans have? , Yao Tanye can guess to some extent that these people want to die together and use kerosene to burn a way out. No one would have thought that the Germans would be so crazy and they all evacuated quickly. Unfortunately, the longbowmen's bows had already been used to a great extent and could not form a dense rain of arrows. After hundreds of German soldiers paid the price of hundreds of people, they still Rushed over. There was a bang, a crisp sound, the earthen pot broke, and kerosene splashed onto many people, followed closely by rockets. The fire began to spread at the bridge head, and many soldiers became balls of fire and jumped into the cold river water desperately. Thick smoke billowed, screams continued, and soon the smell of barbecue filled the air. It was true that the Dingguo army was brave and good at fighting, but when they had encountered such a terrifying attack method, they couldn't help but be restrained. A large number of German soldiers began to rush over from the bridge. Yao Tanye roared unwillingly, "Retreat, quickly retreat to the rear defense line, don't be surrounded by the Germans." By this time, Yao Tanye knew very well that the stone bridge was Unable to defend any longer, the Germans relied on an astonishing suicide attack to break through in a big way. It was definitely impossible to defend against them. Yao Tanye's remnant troops began to retreat to the rear, and the defense line behind was also affected. Who would have thought that the first hole to appear was the Shiqiao defense line with sufficient strength. Suggs led the men to attack along the stone bridge defense line, and the entire Suzdal River defense line began to become full of holes. The commander Wang Benlie was caught off guard. When he saw Yao Tanye, he kicked him directly, "What on earth did you do? Three thousand soldiers and horses rushed to support the Shiqiao defense line. You can't hold it anymore. Haigui is here." Looking back, where do you want me to put my face?" Yao Tanye looked humiliated when he was scolded, and gritted his teeth and said angrily, "Commander Wang, give me another three thousand people, and I will take them here. Drive out these Germanic mad dogs.¡± Yao Tanye did not defend himself. He should not have lost the defense zone even for thousands of reasons. Wang Benlie shook his head directly. He did not want Yao Tanye to die at the hands of the Germans. Sugus's soldiers and horses quickly came over, and the two sides started a new round of confrontation in the town of Monsfino, ten miles away from the stone bridge. This place was heavily guarded, and Wang Benlie was personally in charge, finally blocking Sugus's army. Near Monsfino. The Shiqiao defense line fell, and the news was quickly sent to Hai Dongzhu. In the end, Hai Dongzhu decided to withdraw from the Suzdal River defense line, and the main force entered the vicinity of Vladimir City for defense. The Stone Bridge defense line fell, and a huge gap was exposed in the entire Suzdal River defense line. Once it fell into a hard battle, it was unknown how many soldiers and horses would be lost. It would be a helpless move to retreat and rely on Vladimir City to resist. After nightfall, Lothair finally arrived at the Stone Bridge defense line. At this time, Sugus also came back, but his shoulder was wrapped with a thick bandage, and it looked like he was seriously injured. Lothair nodded with some relief. The next step was the city of Vladimir. I think the Easterners were already troubled by Vladimir. If the Germanic warriors wanted to capture this kind of city, there would definitely be many of them. difficulty. The next day, the German army arrived outside the city of Vladimir. The second Vladimir attackThe war in Er City also began. In order to capture the city of Vladimir as soon as possible, Lothair did not have many reservations and poured a lot of troops into it. The city of Vladimir is known as the first fortified city in the Istria Highlands, which has been tested by time, not to mention that the Dingguo army reinforced the city wall during this period. The Germans learned from the previous method used by the Dingguo army to attack the city of Vladimir and piled mountains of earth outside the city. This really gave Hai Dongzhu a headache. Time flies, two days pass quickly, and the situation in Vladimir City has become extremely delicate. Although the Germans have not made any breakthrough progress, the city has begun to waver under the constant impact. The pile of earth mountains was completed, and the German arrows began to fall on the city head. Under such a situation, many people began to worry. As the real person in charge, Hae Dong-joo could not really be indifferent, but she had to be calm enough. Now we can only count on the Turov garrison to arrive on time. At this time, the Turov army will become the decisive force to change the battlefield situation. In the northeast of Vladimir City, a large army slowly entered the Gorod Highlands. This large army had tens of thousands of people, including as many as 5,000 cavalry. They were the army from Turov's garrison. This army was personally led by Yelena. Originally, they were heading towards the Danes, wanting to enter the Rogda Hills to help deal with the Danes. But no one expected that the battle on the Suzdal River would be so tragic. With an order, they rushed to the city of Vladimir urgently. Yelena has a very good relationship with Hae Dongzhu, and of course she doesn't want to see this sister buried in Vladimir City. The spies had been sent out long ago, but the news they came back was not good. After entering Gorod Castle, Yelena ate something hastily and lay on the bed to rest. There was a loud noise and the door was pushed open. "Urgent report from Vladimir City. The Germans are surrounding the city on all sides. The situation is critical." "The Germans are quick enough." Yelena sat up suddenly and gently stroked her sore forehead, "At six o'clock tomorrow, Yan Pengke's cavalry will immediately rush to the aid of Vladimir and first defeat the German garrison outside. " Originally, I wanted to take a break, but the situation was stronger than the others. The cavalry left Gorod early the next morning under the leadership of Yan Pengke and others. At this time, the offensive and defensive battle in Vladimir City could no longer be described as tragic. In order to capture the city, the Germanic longbowmen did not stop at all. The arrows rained without distinction between the enemy and ourselves. Many Germanic people died in the hands of their own people, but the crazy Germanic people seemed to have lost consciousness and rushed up screaming. Hae Dongzhu felt a headache. Facing a group of enemies who didn't know what death was, there was really nothing he could do. At this time, there was no good solution. He could only see who could hold on. The walls of Vladimir were crumbling and seemed ready to fall at any moment. The reason why the Germans were so crazy was because they were in dire straits, especially the soldiers from the Kingdom of Saxony, who had no way out. Apart from capturing the city of Vladimir, they could not find a better way to rescue the Kingdom of Saxony. When encircling Wei to rescue Zhao, whether we can save Zhao depends on defeating Wei first. Lothair looked solemn. As long as the city of Vladimir was not captured, he would not dare to relax for a moment. The city of Vladimir was the only bargaining chip. Only by getting Vladimir could he have the capital to bargain with the Easterners. . While staring closely, he did not notice a Germanic cavalry rushing towards him, "Your Majesty Lothair, a large number of Eastern cavalry appeared in the northeast. They are heading towards the city of Vladimir and are expected to arrive in an hour." " "Huh", including Lothair, all the German nobles showed shock. The large number of Eastern cavalry may not be scary, but what they are really worried about is something else. Now that these cavalry have arrived, there will definitely be other reinforcements. Whether it is the Turov garrison or the Janmar garrison, they will deal a fatal blow to the German warriors. Now that the two sides are at loggerheads, any reinforcements will break this wonderful balance. No, the Easterners must not be allowed to come over. Once the balance is broken, the little hope supporting the German warriors will collapse instantly. You can imagine what it would be like for the Germanic warriors who fell into despair, "Your Excellency Sugus, I'm sorry to trouble you. In any case, please delay for two days. In two more days, we will definitely be able to capture Vladimir." Su Ges Gus didn't refuse, although he had already given up and didn't even think he could withstand two days. However, as a German noble, even if there is a little hope, you have to fight for it. Nodding heavily, Sugus got on his horse without saying anything. The departure of the German cavalry also left a haze on the attackers. Many German soldiers were wondering what these cavalry had done. Northeast of Vladimir City, two cavalrymen have collided together, and both sides do not need too many words. Yan Pengke received strict orders and was determined to rush to the aid of Vladimir City, but Sugus naturally did not want reinforcements to arrive. One side is eager to rescue, and the other is determined to fight to the death. On this land, the two groups of cavalry are fighting inextricably. The Germans have the advantage in strength, but if they swallow a large cavalry force of more than 5,000 people??, it's not that easy either. The battle lasted for an hour, and Yan Pengke's troops finally retreated. A long-distance attack, but the Germans are waiting for work. If the attack continues for a long time, the entire army may be annihilated. The Germans were blocking the front, and Yan Pengke could only wait patiently. It was not until noon the next day that Yelena's reinforcements arrived belatedly. Better late than never. With a large number of infantry to help, Yelena ordered Yan Pengke and An Tong to launch a new round of attack. This time Sugus didn't have such good luck. The infantry formation cooperated with the chain of horses, coupled with the rain of arrows. Faced with this familiar attack method, Sugus finally couldn't resist it, and the cavalry formation was washed away. Watching the German cavalry being slowly cut apart, Suggs finally revealed two lines of tears. His cheeks were covered in blood, and his beard and hair were withered, like a savage wrapped in animal skins. It's over, it's really over this time, and Lothair's last hope is about to be shattered. Sugus's army collapsed, and Yelena's army marched straight in without encountering any decent resistance. In the evening, they finally arrived at the city of Vladimir. Now the little hope that had been supporting the Germans to fight to the death in the city of Vladimir also became Ethereal. No orders were needed at all. The desperate German soldiers retreated like a tide and have been unable to recover since then. If the Germans are really determined to fight to the death with Yelena's men at this time, there is no hope at all. The problem is that after a long and tense battle, they are greeted by enemy reinforcements, which is psychologically unacceptable. The breakdown of psychological defense is truly fatal. A crescent moon hangs high in the sky, lonely and cold. Lothair is like an old monk in meditation, letting the cold wind carry him. Despair, deep despair, Turov's army is like the last straw that breaks the camel's back. How can they continue to support themselves at this time? Lothair could feel that with the arrival of Turov's army, the attitudes of Sugus, Baisier, and Yorkelen had also changed. The forces of the Germanic army were complex, and there were not many true loyalists to Lothair. Even those children of the Kingdom of Saxony were not necessarily loyal to Lothair. With no hope, how many people are willing to bury themselves in a foreign country for Lothair's dream? Sugus was injured all over, and Baisier was not much better. The two old rivals sat together again, "Sugus, it's time for us to withdraw. Lothair is finished." "Withdraw, withdraw at this time. We still have hope of survival when we arrive in Kiev. We will see what the Easterners do next. I never expected that our lives would fall into the hands of the Easterners. Isn't this an irony? "Sugus? He grinned, and the wounds on his face looked a little ferocious. When he thought of those Germanic warriors who died before his eyes, some desolation spread in his heart, like the cold moon in winter, so cold that one could not see the future. In Vladimir City, Hai Dongzhu hugged Yelena tightly. At this moment, she was very pleased with Yelena, "Yelena, you came in time. If you come one day later, I'm afraid you will have to collect my body for me. Vladimir City If I fall into the hands of the Germans, I will die and I will lose the trust of the officials." Yelena patted Hai Dongzhu's pink back gently. The heavy responsibility of Vladimir City may be too heavy for Hai Dongzhu, but fortunately he managed to hold on to it in the end. The battle in Vladimir City ended, but the battle in Yumsburg took a new turn. Two days later, the soldiers of the Dingguo Army around Yumsburg suddenly gathered half of their troops and headed towards the Elbe River at a very fast speed. , shocking. Zhao Yougong did not go to the Elbe River, but asked Gao Chong to lead the troops. After all, these German nobles could not hold back. Xiao Zhiyun looked at the map in front of her with all her concentration, and asked with concern, "Royce gave it to me Is the news reliable?¡±
