king of ros

1086 was a lucky year for Alexios, because that Suleiman died during the conquest of Antioch, and his son was detained by the Seljuk Sultan, the self-proclaimed Roma Sultan The country has fallen into total chaos and fighting.

The emperor resolutely marched into the land he had never touched, and the result was gratifying. Alexios' forces advanced to a place not far from the capital of the Roma Sultanate, Nicaea, across the lake. The city that had fallen to the Turks.

In other areas, the Varangian Guard led by Vasilico, with the assistance of some Greek troops, swept the Anatolian coast west of Nicaea, dividing the coast of Anatolia, which was originally divided into two parts. The territories were linked together, and Constantinople could now be reached by land from Smyrna.

The form of the empire can be said to be Dashun, the territory is being continuously recovered, and the situation seems to be getting better and better.

But 1086 was an extremely unlucky year for the Kingdom of Georgia.

Internally, Tbilisi, lost by the kingdom, still failed to recover, and the adventurer named Monomakh still controlled the city.

Externally, he was once again defeated by the Seljuk attack, not facing the attack of the main force of the Sudan, but by a group of warlords and adventurers.

An extremely negative atmosphere pervades the kingdom, and the kingdom suffered a major earthquake this year.

The earthquake caused heavy casualties in cities including the king's capital Kutaisi. The entire kingdom complained about it, and rumors still prevailed. People began to think that it was the king and the rule of the Bagration family that caused all this.

Along with such rumors, is the flattery of Monomakh. In these rumors, it is better for Monomakh to rule Georgia with the blood of the emperor. He has made such great achievements and conquered so many pagans. Land, let him rule is certainly no problem.

King George immediately realized that this was a manipulation by someone with a heart, and he immediately took an iron fist against such rumors. As long as anyone dared to mention these things, fate would suppress them all.

It's a pity that the bloody methods have encouraged the spread of rumors. More and more Georgians began to whisper that they believed that the king's rule led to everything today, and they began to wonder whether it would be better for Monomakh to rule.

Moreover, the Church of Georgia is extremely ambiguous in this. As important supporters of the Georgian ruling class, they are generally the vanguard in dealing with such rumors, but this time their attitude is really hard to say clearly.

As a result, the situation of the Georgian king became more and more strange. On the surface, there was no one who was dissatisfied with the Bagration family, but under the water, there was a dark tide.

Soon, the perpetrators appeared, and the perpetrators were none other than the "old friends" of the Kingdom of Georgia, the nobles of Abkhazia.

For a long time, Abkhazia has always played the role of the biggest opposition in the Kingdom of Georgia. Long before the formation of the Kingdom of Georgia, the Abkhaz nobles were fighting against Bagration, and they were also the most dissatisfied with Bagration’s rule. group of people.

Therefore, among the traditional three components of the Kingdom of Georgia, Abkhazia has always caused trouble for the Bagration kings.

Bediya, where the Georgian church is located, is also in Abkhazia, which is why the church was so ambiguous before. As the Abkhaz nobles showed their cards, the church also followed their cards.

The Abkhaz nobles and the church announced that Monomakh should be the ruler of the Kingdom of Georgia. Compared with Bagration, who is obviously tired of God, Monomakh's rule is obviously more suitable. He is obviously favored by God. The man, just look at his conquests.

Undoubtedly, for King George, this sounded the trumpet of rebellion, so the king did not hesitate at all. He declared the Abkhaz nobles and the church to be traitors, and summoned the army to punish these traitors.

The main body of King George's army is the feudal heavy cavalry called Monapasa. The power of these people comes from the king. They are naturally extremely loyal to the king. In a short period of time, the king has [-] soldiers under his command. Napasa cavalry.

Then came the various nobles of the Kingdom of Georgia. They formed the second largest combat group after Monapasa, but these troops were really uneven, and the quality was unknown.

Finally, there are the infantry recruited as cannon fodder from all walks of life. These people have reached a total of 1 people. They are the largest and most unreliable part of the entire army. The Seti mountain people, they are the traditional allies of the Kingdom of Georgia.

The king pulled out a full 2 soldiers, which is a manifestation of the long-standing strength of the Bagration family, but the morale of this army is very problematic, and the Abkhaz nobles only pulled out 7000 people, which is still in line with the The product of the confluence of Oleg of Trabzon from the sea, if nothing happens, they will definitely be wiped out.

But there must have been accidents. Monomakh of Tbilisi was indeed the conspirator behind all this. He took out 2 people in a short period of time. These 2 people included all the ethnic groups he conquered. The march is a national fair, but the most reliable are only those adventurers who have gained territories during his campaigns.

After merging with the Abkhaz nobles, their army reached 7000 people, which constituted an advantage over the king's army, but this was not the biggest advantage of the Monomakh side. The biggest gap between the two armies was morale.

The morale of King George's army was extremely low. The great earthquake in 1086 and a series of chaos before that destroyed the king's reputation. Many people really believed that the king had been abandoned by God.

The king also understood this very well, so he used the most direct strategy at the beginning. He let the [-] Monapasa cavalry under his command attack the Monomakh army, and the rest followed suit.

He was completely planning to make a one-shot deal. If the hammer succeeded, he would live, and if it failed, he would die.

King George's move almost killed Monomakh. The charge of the entire Georgian army dispersed the Abkhaz army in the first place. Only a small number of nobles remained on the battlefield, and the main force of Monomakh almost Being defeated, the battle would be stabilized if the adventurers hadn't frantically massacred the rout. Even so, the Monapasa cavalry rushed in front of Monomakh.

But this is also the time when Monomakh exerts his power. The cannon fodder in front of him exists only to consume the impact kinetic energy of the Monapasa cavalry. When the impact kinetic energy of the Monapasa cavalry disappears, the next victory belongs to him.

The next thing was indeed as he expected, as the impact kinetic energy of the Monapasa cavalry was dissipated, they fell into a quagmire called cannon fodder, and at the moment when Monapasa was in trouble, other Georgian troops He also hesitated, only the Ossetian mountain people continued to rush forward desperately.

The problem of low morale in the Georgian army was clearly revealed. First, groups of soldiers fled, followed by dozens of deserters, and finally hundreds of hundreds collapsed. to fight the cursed king.

King George watched all this, he knew that the situation could not be changed, his big hammer had been blocked by Monomakh, and there was only one thing he could do now, and that was to escape.

It's just that he can't escape if he wants to. Monomacher has already locked his position in the battle and prepared a beheading commando for him. This commando is composed of experienced servants. led by Radko.

The commando quickly opened a path through the collapsed Georgian army and came towards the Georgian king who was about to retreat. The king's guard fought to the last moment to protect their monarch, but even this did not prevent their king from being beheaded. .

With King George's head on the lance and the complete collapse of the Georgian army, for Monomakh the Georgian throne is now waving at him!
