Eagle Byzantium

According to the description of the person involved, Coleadios, who was six feet tall, rode a Thracian war horse, wore copper-colored armor, carried a Turkic deerskin quiver, and had an exaggerated mink tail ornament on his helmet. He personally led the way. Two thousand Carinthian soldiers, plus an equal number of Bogomil believers, came to the monastery on the cliff of Bosnia and demanded a choice:

Either pay unified taxes to the empire, or destroy the courtyard, because the empire will no longer allow the existence of private property in the monastery.

But the group of retreat priests were also unruly and unruly. They roared and became impulsive, carrying various icons to block the Carinthian army. They claimed that they had received the Holy Light and Divine Enlightenment while retreating on the mountain, and had been able to communicate with the Lord. The Lord said that the tyranny of the Prince of Carinthia and his father could only last three years and three months, and they would be destroyed sooner or later.

Colleadios was furious and flew arrows from his bow. He killed the deacon among the priests with one arrow. Many of the priests were still stunned in place. As a result, Colleadios shot seven more arrows and killed four more. people, then drove their horses and swords, and stepped forward to chop and drive them away - the priests were so frightened that they ran away shouting, and the soldiers and Bogomil believers who were encouraged by the prince also bravely He followed up violently, stormed the great monastery, looted and burned it, and then Colleadios announced that he would confiscate all the monastery's field assets, and contribute one-third of the sacred objects and goods obtained to Constantinople, and one-third to Constantinople. One portion was given to the soldiers, and a third was given to the Bogomilists to establish their own commune on the ruins of the Bosnian monastery.

After receiving the report, Basilisa was angry at this uncultured and rude prince, "He is simply a Varangian bear cub! Even when dealing with the monastery, a steady and long-term strategy must be adopted instead of such crude force."

Just when Anna was about to issue a letter of condemnation, Christopher quietly suppressed it. He said to his mother, "If you blame your brother, you are denying your father's previous actions and saying that your father did something wrong. Then the empire will be completely shaken." of."

Anna, who was picking up her pen, could only put it aside again.

Her son is right. There is no right or wrong in governing this country, but he must never admit that he is wrong, because "Emperors do not make mistakes." This proverb is not a satire on the emperor's self-righteousness, but points out that any emperor must Worry about the basis of your own rule.

Then Anna sent a fast horse letter asking Gawain to stay at the front line with peace of mind, saying that the situation in the empire had stabilized.

As soon as the letter crossed the strait, Gawain entered the area where the Gur tribe lived.

The emperor now had three-winged brigades, an artillery task force (mainly light artillery) and almost all the cavalry. Cabeamiya was worried, so she brought back five thousand believer soldiers from the city of Little Mofu and took on the role of Gawain's wing.

King of Gur Izz Aladdin came with five thousand soldiers to "join the battle."

But the so-called "challenge" was nothing but smoke to conceal the situation. In fact, the two sides quickly held a secret meeting at the camp under the mountain.

Izzy Aladdin graciously presented the Roman emperor with his family's specialties - one hundred pairs of exquisitely forged and strong infantry archer armors, thirty pairs of cavalry armors and horse armors, ten first-class hounds, and a basket Precious turquoise.

Seeing the turquoise, Gawain's eyes gleamed obviously, but he endured it and returned it to King Gur after coughing twice, "Why is it necessary? This time we will join forces to fight against the invading army from the east. Your loyalty and moral integrity are known to the Sultan and the Caliph, so they will appoint you as the Grand Emir, Governor of Herat, and the Chief of the Faithful of Ghaznavids, with the right hand of the Caliph."

King Gur was overjoyed and took the initiative to lead Gawain's army to capture the city of Herat.

Gawain asked him in detail about the city defense and soldiers of Herat, and then he felt relieved, without any grudges or doubts, and asked King Gur to do it boldly, "In the future, if the city of Ghazni is captured, everything there will be destroyed." It's yours."

"I also long to avenge my father who died inexplicably!" Izzy, the king of Gur, was full of fighting spirit and concluded an alliance with Gawain.

Then Izzy Aladdin pretended to have failed in resisting Gawain and led two thousand tribesmen cavalry to the city of Herat.

If Nishapur is the gateway connecting Persia and Central Asia, then Herat is the hub connecting Persia and Tianzhu, with more than 100,000 residents (Mongolian Western Expedition, Torre conquered this city and claimed to have massacred a 1.7 million residents may seem like an exaggeration, but when It is an indisputable fact that the ancient cities in Central Asia were much larger and richer than most towns in Europe. Therefore, it is untenable to question the inability of Central Asia to provide military logistics. Of course, when Mongolia invaded Europe and the Middle East, it was untenable. It relies on supplies from Central Asia. , not only have grain and war horses, but also a large number of craftsmen and servants who make weapons and equipment. Otherwise, do you really think that the Mongolian steppe ponies are nuclear-powered? The corresponding use of Central Asia as a springboard and base is definitely not Mongolia. Patents that only talents can achieve, any individual Ancient regimes can be used), with towers and city walls like mountains, and inner neighborhoods like clouds. It has always been the military and financial center of the Ghaznavid Khanate. Therefore, after Yisrael's Western Expedition, he still left behind heavy troops and militia to garrison. In addition, There are also three thousand Mongolian soldiers in the city to help defend.

However, King Gur also showed his cunning and strange side at this time. He actually disguised Yisrael's document and said that the army of Constantinople was approaching, and the king asked our army to enter the city to help defend it. When the city general was still doubtful, , King Gur used a lot of turquoise to bribe the merchants and imams in the city, and spread false news everywhere, saying that Israel suffered a disastrous defeat in Boskerman and that his life and death were unknown.

Soon the demon eggs of fear and suspicion hatched in people's hearts, and finally they opened the city gate and let King Gur in.

As a result, King Gur immediately rushed in with his cavalry, occupied a section of the city wall and several city gates, and fought fiercely with the city's defenders and Mongolian soldiers.

At dawn, Gawain's Red Hand Brigade and Guardian Brigade arrived and each entered a gate. The shooter soldiers threw Khitan snow grenades everywhere and burned the streets. There were endless flames and explosions. The response agents in the city responded. They also took the opportunity to go out in all directions, some leading the way and others hunting and killing the garrison officers.

In the end, the Mongolian cavalry abandoned the city and fled towards the direction of Ghaznavids.

The generals guarding Ghazni Khan in the city either committed suicide by drowning themselves in the river, or were captured and killed by King Gur. At noon, Gawain rode under the imperial umbrella of Antian and led the imperial guards into the city. Many of his generals asked the emperor to personally identify his troops to guard the city, but Gawain said magnanimously: "This big city is originally It should belong to His Highness Izzy Aladdin, King of Gur, and I will keep my original promise.”

So after Gawain congratulated Queen Gur, he ordered the entire army to set up camp outside the city and not to enter the city to cause nuisance.

Izzy was so grateful that he took out everything in the city's warehouses to provide supplies for Gawain.
