Un Habir vs Lion'Erd


The blinding sun illuminates bare earth,
the made red hot air has the Norman line up trembled
visible in distance with the shines of their armors.
An imposing figure Arab on a white horse
it precedes of a few footsteps the Saracen line up,
Un Habir saw the insignias of the Duke Lion’ Erd,
to take sides with his ready army to the battle.
A Saracen messenger arrives to the gallop,
arrests the horse in front of the commander: The Arabic attack is ready to the assault.

To the first movement all the Arabs are reliable, the first attack is on the right side
but the Norman defense rejects this first offensive,
to the center the Arabs advance without lining up the troops,
while the infantry of Lion’Erd faces them with a slow very effective advance.
The battle already seems compromised for Un Habir,
but fortunately for him after repeated clashes,
the attack on the Norman side succeeds.
While to the center the Arabs finally get ready in double line
slowing down it line up of Duke Lion’Erd,
causing between their brave dead numerous lines.
The Arabs by now superior of number they defeat the really hostile ones severely,
causing the collapse of the command of infantry.
Saracens rage by now on all sides
causing last to the collapse of another command.
General Lion’Erd attacks the moslem still bravely,
but he is rejected and finally surrounded and killed,
while the Norman soldiers confused escape…
Un Habir, at the end of the last attack,
It observes gratified the own victorious soldiers.
