My Spear men at the gate collapsed into a wave of calvary, as my Druzinhas charged through the gate, making the gateway chokepoint a larger mass grave. The Feudal Knights (Dismounted) kept coming on and being slaughtered, taking a few Druzinha with them every time until there were 5 left at which point all wa lost. The General charged, and spilled more Hungarian blood. His elite bodyguard was really tearing up the enemy, but there was no end to the reinforcements. As the bodies piled up, my forces rapidly became weaker. The Peasant Archers finished off 6 Feudal Knights on the walls but were hacked to bits by Croat Axemen.
The fearless general fought on bravely, but after slaying even more foes, he dissapeared under a wave of Knights.
Kiev was in Hungarian Hands.
Revenge was swift and sure, Ivan, son of then Grand Duke Vladimir, brother of Grand Prince (Now Grand Duke) Miroslav (Now the Cruel) retook the city with 2 units of Dvor, 2 Berdiche Axemen units, 3 regiments of Dismounted Dvor, 2 Trebuchet units and Sidor of Zabolata.
The town was sacked and since this tragic defeat, I have learned a lesson. I always keep 9 Dismounted Dvor, 2 Druzinhas, 2 Bombards and my generals just to repel attackers. Since then, Kiev (a large city based on mostly slave trade) has been near impregnable, mostly I sally forth and position my bombards just outside the gate, guarded by Dvor and wreak havoc on the attackers. I learned and Kiev will be held!
