Therefore, Shu Yichao sighed deeply and felt that he had suffered a huge loss.

"It seems I still have too few soldiers."

Shu Yichao concluded.

"I really can't afford to die."

"Hey, never mind." Shu Yichao turned his gaze and looked at his elite horse archers with warm eyes.

"Brothers, you have worked hard."

"Then it's time to have fun searching."

After letting the elite horse archers escort the prisoners outside the city——

Occupy the city, plunder, abandon the city, occupy the city again, plunder again, abandon the city again...

Shu Yichao's operation was like flowing clouds and flowing water.

"My Lord."

A few days later, when Constantine XI slowly rushed to Adrianople with tens of thousands of crusaders, he couldn't help but sigh sincerely.

"Our Caesar, did he really take down Adrianople?"

Although he knew that Shu Yichao's attack target might be Adrianople, Constantine XI actually did not have much hope for his attack.

As the capital of Osman, Adrianople must be extremely strong.

Moreover, the pagans in the Osman Empire, fueled by their religious fanaticism, are also extremely fierce and difficult to deal with.

Even if the Khitan warriors are more terrifying than the Osman warriors, city defense, field battles and city sieges cannot be compared.

What's more, Shu Yichao's army is still at an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers——

An army of less than 1000 men goes to attack a strong fortress garrisoned by tens of thousands of people?

Constantine XI could not imagine what that scene was like.

Therefore, according to the most optimistic idea of ​​Constantine XI, this holy war was just to pull out the Ottoman stronghold on the Thracian plain, and then retreat under the city of Adrianople in a show of force.

Anyway, in terms of field battles, it is estimated that no one can defeat the terrifying cavalry under the Khitan Caesar.

When retreating, the Osmans did not dare to pursue them even if they wanted to.

But he never expected that Adrianople, which had been occupied for nearly a hundred years, would be recovered like this?

This means that Norma's strategic depth has been greatly improved, and there will no longer be a need to defend the capital every day.

For a moment, Constantine XI could not help but burst into tears.

As for the Crusaders, they were even more excited when they saw the double-headed eagle flag hanging on the wall of Adrianople and the tens of thousands of dejected prisoners outside the city.

"Long live the Priest King!"

"Long live the Cathay Caesar!"

"Long live jihad!"

Amid the cheers of the Crusaders, Shu Yichao also saw Constantine XI.

"Yo!" Shu Yichao, who had just enthusiastically commanded the elite horse archers and built a new Beijing view, then rode forward.

"Jun Shiyi."

"You're here too."

He pointed at Jingguan proudly: "My new one, isn't it handsome?"

Even though he knew that Shu Yichao was a friend rather than an enemy, Constantine XI couldn't help but tremble.

He quickly smiled and said: "Congratulations to our Caesar, he has won another glorious victory."

"The enemy must be..."

"Huh?" Before he finished speaking, Shu Yichao's eyes caught sight of something that Mrs. Marty was holding over.

"what is this?"

"For me?"

Mrs. Marty saw Shu Yichao looking at her, so she showed the thing.

What caught Shu Yichao's eyes was a dazzling blood red——

On the red flag as bright as blood, a golden double-headed eagle flutters its wings.

The double-headed eagle holds a whip in one talon and a scimitar in the other. Its four eyes are full of defiance and scorn, as if it wants to whip the whole world.

"Hahahahaha!!" Shu Yichao was overjoyed and took it over: "The bloody double-headed eagle, I like it!"

"I was muttering before I said this, why is the flag of Rome in this MOD a purple double-headed eagle?"

"So the easter egg is here."

"Only after completing certain tasks, players will receive the exclusive red double-headed eagle flag."

Shu Yichao, who had his own flag, immediately put on this flag: "From now on, I am the Roman Orthodox!"

"Brothers, continue to restore Rome!"

"A wave of people ran away from the city before. Can you bear this?"

"Hurry up and chase!"

Watching Shu Yichao happily leave with the bloody double-headed eagle flag.

Constantine XI asked Madame Marti: "How do you know that our Caesar likes red flags?"

"We don't understand the Khitan dialect very well either."

Previously, Constantine XI planned to prepare a purple double-headed eagle exclusive flag for Shu Yichao, but at the strong suggestion of Mrs. Marty, it was eventually changed to red.

Mrs. Marty looked at the towering capital outside Adrianople City, the crows hovering in the sky, and the strings of prisoners outside the city, and said.

"I don't know why, I just think the color red matches him very well."

"Come into the city, Your Majesty."

"The aftermath of Adrianople is probably enough for us to keep busy."

Chapter 34 - The Royal Concubine's Hunting to the West

"Your Majesty the Queen Mother, you have had a hard journey."

In the big tent, an Osman officer said to the travel-worn First Princess and her entourage.

"The Albanian Legion was ordered to come to the rescue and has now been assembled. It is ready to fight for Her Majesty the Queen Mother and the real Sultan at any time!"

The officer said with confidence.

"All the madmen who dare to covet the throne of the Sultan will be sent to hell by us!"

"Okay, okay." The eldest princess, who had fled all the way here, said several good words in succession.

But she seemed to have thought of something, and after trembling, she hurriedly asked.

"How many people do you have now?"

"How is the combat effectiveness?"

"..." Officer Osman's eyes flickered.

"Please rest assured, Queen Mother, I have brought ten thousand brave warriors."

"Enough to crush any enemy who attempts to invade!"

1 people?

Doesn’t it seem very safe?

The eldest princess frowned slightly.

In the past few days, she was almost frightened by Shu Yichao.

I was also slightly shocked by the Khitans - no matter how many warriors were left to stop the Khitans' pursuit, they were almost all bulldozed.

Said to let the soldiers block it.

They really only blocked the rush of Shu Yi Chao.

Fortunately, she had the foresight to throw away all the gorgeous decorations and flags that symbolized status.

In addition, the Khitans also attacked cities and territories along the way and did not pursue her wholeheartedly——

Only then did he avoid being crushed to death by the Khitans like an ant.

According to her estimate, the one thousand Khitans now require at least five thousand Yeniciri to deal with them.

Therefore, she wanted to quickly understand the combat effectiveness of the Albanian Legion so that she could decide what to do next.

But these are only [-] ordinary Osman warriors——

At this time, the eldest princess saw the cronies in the tent giving her a secret glance.

She understood.

"Thank you Pasha."

"As a reward for your bravery and loyalty, the Sultan will not begrudge his favor."

"Go and receive your reward."

Officer Osman was overjoyed: "Thank you Queen Mother for your generosity, we will always be loyal to you!"

Seeing Officer Osman leaving the tent with all his subordinates, he happily went to get the reward.

The eldest princess hugged her son and looked at her cronies.

"Your Majesty, he is lying." The confidant said without concealment.

"My son just estimated the size of the army, and that guy ate half of his free pay."

"And not all of the remaining 5000 people are soldiers."

"I estimate that his men can only fight two to three thousand."

"This number of people are simply not enough for the Khitans to defeat."

"What!?" The eldest princess jumped up as if she had been pricked by a needle.

"Two 3000 people?"

"This, how can this be done?"

The eldest princess felt dizzy and dizzy.

"Withdraw!" the confidant said firmly.

"Continue to retreat to the west!"

"The Khitans don't focus on anyone. They attack all enemies."

"We also choose places with many people to go to."

"As long as we run fast enough, the Khitan people's attention will be attracted by the more numerous Moria Legion to the south——"

"We'll enter after they fight to the death."

"That's all." The eldest princess said slowly.

But unexpectedly, after she issued the order to hunt west, everyone in the Albanian Army expressed opposition!

"Why bother, Your Majesty the Queen Mother?"

"Our entire army is looking forward to the Sultan taking over Adrianople and becoming the true ruler of the empire."

"As for the Khitans, there is nothing to fear!"

The eldest princess wanted to scold them, but when the words came to her lips, it was like a basin of cold water was poured on her head.

Are these guys really here to be loyal to you?

Most of the people he brought out from Adrianople were killed by the Khitans.

I'm afraid the Albanian Legion has some ulterior motives and wants to hijack us and control the government!
