"We should set out."

Hohenzollern conscripted 5,000 high-level Teutonic knights, tens of thousands of knight servants, and 200,000 troops formed by other German princes, and marched from Brandenburg to the Polish Kingdom controlled by the Hun Empire.

The black cross flags, shields, and breastplate of the Teutonic Knights gathered into a black torrent.

The Teutonic Knights have strict hierarchy divisions, and formal knights are the core backbone of the Knights. These are real high-level cavalry troops. After each knight has money, he can also purchase better equipment by himself. In addition, each knight has special servants, belonging to low-level cavalry. Not only that, Hohenzollern also has a large number of spearmen, crossbowmen, and archers formed by citizens and peasants.

"The Knights Templars seem to be with the French lords, and the Knights Hospitals, on the island of Malta, fell into the hands of the Romans?"

When Hohenzollern saw the Teutonic Knights like a black torrent, he couldn't help but think of the Knights Templar and the Knights Hospital.

The Teutonic Knights, the Knights Templars, and the Hospital Knights are the three major knights in Europe, with a relatively high status on the Western continent.

Vienna, Austrian Grand Duke Ferdinand led 200,000 Austrian-Hungarian coalition forces, cooperated with Hohenzollern to attack Attila's sphere of influence from the north.

Macedonia, Rome launched an offensive from the south.

More than three million troops fought in the entire Western continent!

The scale of this war that swept most of the Western continent was even more exaggerated than the Battle of Mobei, because except for Rome, other civilizations fought at home, and the supply pressure was not as high as that of the Han Empire Expeditionary Force, so they could mobilize more troops.

For a time, players from the Western continent were panicked. Many players from the Western continent evacuated to other cities to avoid the battle between the two camps. The number of players who fled from the Hun Empire alone was as many as one million.

Outside St. Petersburg, a viscount led the Boye cavalry to patrol the seaside.

"Viking Pirates' Warship!"

A Boye cavalry exclaimed, and in the sea fog, the dragon-headed warship emerged!

"Use a longbow to prevent them from shore!"

The viscount of the Grand Duchy of Moscow realized that if Viking pirates were allowed to come to land, they would have to fight with Viking pirates head-on. If there were high-level Viking Berethwarriors among these Viking pirates, then the Poye cavalry, who are also high-level troops, would be in danger!

Some of the Boye cavalry dismounted, and the front row of the Boye cavalry held shields and spears to form a wall. The cavalry in the rear took off their longbows and looked nervously at the approaching Viking warships.

The fast and flexible Viking warship abandoned the Swedish kingdom's troop transport ships and quietly appeared on the coast near St. Petersburg, then rushed straight to the beach!

"Follow me and slaughter all the powerful enemies!"

Viking-level Olaf I held up his battle axe and ordered his warship to attack the coast!

The Viking Bearsmen of the Yums Chapter followed the king of Viking civilization, shouted, waved their battle axe, jumped into the shallows, and wadeed to attack the Boyer cavalry lined up on the shore!

The Poye cavalry fired arrows, and the rain of arrows broke through the air, covering the Yums battle group that hit the coast!

Several Viking Bereaves were shot by the rain of arrows and fell into the sea, splashing water.

The Boye Cavalry is also a high-level cavalry, with amazing bow and arrow damage. As long as it hits the key, it can also shoot and kill the Viking Bears warriors of the Yums Chapter!

"I'll fight myself!"

The Viking warship was stranded and shaking violently. Olaf I jumped into the sea with an axe and rushed to the beach with an axe. The battle axe swung and all the arrows shot were knocked away by Olaf.

Hundreds of high-level Viking Bereaves successfully killed the beach with Olaf. Among them, the first row of bereaves threw the battle axe in their hands. The battle axe swung at high speed in the air, piercing through the small shield of the Boye Cavalry, and directly killing the Boye Cavalry located behind the shield!

At least thirty Boye cavalry were killed by tomahawks thrown by Viking Beaters!

The formation formed by the dismounted Poye cavalry caused chaos. The Viscount led the remaining Poye cavalry to ride war horses to attack the Viking Bereths, hoping to drive the group of barbarians back to the sea.

The number of Poye cavalry was about eight hundred, and under the leadership of a viscount, he took the initiative to launch a heroic charge at the hundreds of Umes teams of Olaf I!

The heroes and soldiers of the Grand Duchy of Moscow are, in a sense, quite fierce.

The battle group of Olaf and Yums took the initiative to enter a violent state, holding a battle axe in his hand, and head-only to the feudal aristocratic cavalry of the Grand Duchy of Moscow!

The war horse galloped, and Olaf remained motionless. The battle axe directly split the war horse of a Boye cavalry in half. The Boye cavalry on the horse fell heavily to the ground, and he was greeted by the Viking Bears warrior's axe blade!

About an hour later, the Viscount fled back to St. Petersburg with the remaining Boye cavalry. The ground was filled with war horses, discarded armor and shields.

The exhausted Yums team warriors stood proudly on the battlefield and killed about 400 more than 400 cavalrymen.

More Viking warriors came ashore after the victory of Olaf and Yums, and there were thousands of people.

Not all Viking civilized soldiers are berserkers, and Viking warriors are strong and weak.

Katerina recruited the hero Haral of the Viking civilization through the national war, and his Varangi Guard was one of the top troops of the Viking civilization.

Olaf's Yums Chapter is also an elite force. In addition to the Yums Chapter, Olaf also brought ordinary Viking warriors.

Ordinary Viking warriors are not high-level troops.

"Bare all the villages and towns around you, and get supplies before His Majesty the King arrives!"

Olaf was cruel and had no psychological burden to scatter the villages and towns near St. Petersburg.

He could already see the towering walls and towers of St. Petersburg, a fortress built by Catherine to conquer Nordic civilizations.

The powerful Yums team among the Vikings swept around St. Petersburg, razing the surrounding villages to the ground.

"How many Viking warriors did Gustav bring? How many members of the Yums Chapter?"

The people of St. Petersburg were panicked, and the fierce Olaf and Yums were notorious. St. Petersburg became the last city to block the northern army.

...

"The Yums team, they participated in the attack on St. Petersburg, but Gustav did not expect that he would conquer the Viking Pirates active in Nordic."

Yekaterina, who commanded the army into the Don River Basin, received information from the St. Petersburg defenders. She already knew that the legendary Viking hero Olaf and the Yums team were loyal to the Swedish king Gustav and joined forces to attack St. Petersburg.

St. Petersburg faces greater pressure than imagined. Gustav's firearms army, Grand Duke Vitautas's Polish Lithuanian cavalry, Olaf's Yums army, are all strong forces in the Western continent.

"Is the Yums team the legion that conquered England by King Knut of the Viking civilization?"

Chu Tian is still following Ekaterina. He has heard of the Vikings Yums Chapter. The Yums Chapter once conquered England, and the Viking hero Knut was once the common king of Nordic and England.

The Yums team's abilities are similar to those of the Varangi Guards.

"If Yums team first arrives and then enters a violent state, it will be extremely difficult to defend St. Petersburg..."

Chu Tian could completely imagine how much psychological pressure the Viking Bereaves of the Yums Chapter would bring to the defenders as they climbed onto the St. Petersburg walls.

"We can only choose to trust the defenders of St. Petersburg. We need to speed up the elimination of the Golden Horde."

Caterina is also under tremendous pressure.

"I lead the cavalry and act alone."

Chu Tian personally commanded 120,000 cavalrymen, separated from Catherine's army at night, marched from another direction, with a different intention.

Fifty thousand Cossack cavalry and a small number of Han cavalry were regarded as bait by Chu Tian. Under the leadership of the five Don River Cossack leaders, they disguised themselves as Han cavalry and marched towards Salai, the royal city of the Golden Horde.

The number of these Cossack cavalrymen is almost the same as the number of Han cavalry brought by Chu Tian, ​​so they can play a role in confusing the situation.

Ekaterina's 450,000 troops quickly advanced to the Golden Horde, compressing the living space of the Golden Horde and forcing the main force of the Golden Horde to fight a decisive battle.

The Cossack leader Khmelnikki had already fought with the Mongolian cavalry of Subutai. Khmelnikki was defeated by Subutai, and more than 3,000 Cossack cavalry were killed!

After Khmelnikki lost, he began to retreat and met with Ekaterina.

The Golden Horde gathered the remaining troops of the Mongol Empire in the northern desert, which is different from the past.

"Subutai, his cavalry is extremely fierce! My Cossack cavalry is simply vulnerable in front of his cavalry!"

When Khmelnikki fought against the Golden Horde under Chu Tian's command, he did not feel the terror of Temujin and Subutai. When he led the Cossack cavalry alone to fight Subutai, he realized that Subutai was simply a great devil.

Subutai did not perform very strongly in the previous battles, just because Chu Tian’s cavalry bonus was almost the same as that, and even more than that.

Khmelnikki's cavalry was defeated by Subutai.

"You have lost only three thousand Cossack cavalry, which has exceeded my expectations."

To Khmelnikki's surprise, Ekaterina, the master of the Cossack cavalry, did not blame him, but forgave his defeat.

Caterina recalled dozens of generals, holding a parchment map in her hand.

The initiative is in her hands, and she tries to find a suitable place to fight the Golden Horde.

"This field on the left bank of the Don River is a swamp, with a radius of hundreds of miles and dense jungles, ravines and heavy fogs, which are not suitable for the battle of the large cavalry of the Golden Horde. They can try to lure Temujin, Subutai, Shuchi, Badu and others into this field for a decisive battle."

"The Golden Horde is best at using powerful cavalry on both wings to encircle and annihilate the enemy from the front and side. If the Golden Horde army can be lured to the swamp, the Golden Horde's cavalry advantage will be suppressed to the maximum extent."

Ekaterina's fingers moved to the parchment map, on the left bank of the Don River.

At this time, the Grand Duchy of Moscow still had quite complex and vast terrain.

The hero of the Polish winged cavalry, Bartori, pondered and asked his lord: "How to introduce the Golden Horde to this place to fight to the decisive battle?"

Yekaterina looked at Sun Bin, a military advisor left by Chu Tian: "I have considered with the Eastern advisers to sacrifice some of my troops and lead Temujin and Subutai to the decisive battle site."

"So my Cossack cavalry, their sacrifice, was also to attract Temujin and Subutai to come?"

Khmelnikki thought of the three thousand Cossack cavalry subordinates whom he sacrificed, and it turned out that it was the price that Katerina had to pay to defeat Temujin and Subutai.

In the eyes of the future Tsar, the Cossack cavalry was a bargaining chip comparable to the feudal cavalry, but it was just bargaining chips. When it was needed, the Cossack cavalry would be qualified cannon fodder.

“War comes at a price.”

Yekaterina was outside without any mercy.

Chu Tian went to ambush, and Sun Bin left a layout. He found that Khmelnikki's loyalty might decline because of this matter, so he supported Ekaterina: "If the Golden Horde cannot be defeated, the Don River Basin on which the Cossacks depended for survival, and the Volga River Basin was occupied by the Golden Horde. The sacrificed Cossack cavalry was for their tribe to survive better in the future."

Khmelnitsky's face looked a little better after hearing Sun Bin's explanation.

"Khmelnitsky, I know this is cruel, but this is war. The next battle, the soldiers from various tribes and city-states will be killed, with tens of thousands of casualties and wounded, and the three thousand Cossack cavalry were only one of the costs. As a subject of the Grand Duchy of Moscow, sacrifice gloriously was thousands of times better than living in shame! My legion never knew what surrender and retreat! Going to war means no retreat, and if you do nothing and return, it would be better not to come at all!"
