Chapter 1979
Obviously, compared to the raft as a tool, the opponent's talent for crossing water like walking on flat ground brought great advantages on the water surface, and there was no way to obliterate it.

[Phew, walking directly on the water is indeed a bit costly to the soldiers, but seized this opportunity and wiped out nearly two thousand Anxi elites, and the small loss is negligible. I think Anxi will not make irrational actions in a short time up. 】Benito felt the morale of the soldiers around him continue to recover, and he was relieved a lot.

After all, Benito's purpose from the very beginning was not to fight a head-to-head war with the Parthians, but to seize the opportunity to take advantage of the chaos and give the Parthians a head-on blow, so that the soldiers around him could understand that although their Roman legions were severely damaged, Strength is still there.

And the timing was very good just now, and I have been trying not to expose this ability before, just to make the Anxi people awaken once and for all, it is definitely a stupid choice to attack or something.

Seeing that the Parthians on the other side of the river did not disperse, Benito did not pay too much attention to it. After all, two-thirds of the pontoon bridge was repaired, and he suddenly found that all the work he had done before was useless, and it would be unacceptable for anyone to replace it.

"Ferruccio, you let people form a defense on the spot. Although the Parthians are peaceful now, if we are negligent, what happened before is very likely to happen." Benito observed the Parthians on the opposite side and confirmed Although Anxi's side was raging with anger, after seeing the performance of the [-]th combined legion, they should have given up the idea of ​​forcing a breakthrough.

But even so, Benito still cautiously ordered all the legions to garrison along the river according to the line of defense he had arranged, and it seemed that there was no way for Anxi, but he was unwilling to die and wanted to wait for the Romans to neglect Same.

"Did the attack be launched under the cover of darkness before dawn?" Zhuge Liang and others asked, "In our current situation, only when Ardashir restrains the [-]th Legion can we succeed in crossing the river."

"In Ardashir's situation, he is likely to choose that time, so we are ready, this damn Fourteenth Army." Fars Sassan was furious, "If the Fourteenth Army withdraws to Euphrates later East of the river, then pursue directly, and other things will turn around and plunder."

Zhuge Liang nodded. Indeed, on the side of the Tigris River, if Fars Sassan successfully defeated the Roman army by attracting the attention of the enemy, then wait until the Romans escaped the Euphrates River and use the previous method. The Romans remembered eating but not beating!
At the darkest hour before dawn the next day, Ardashir's army launched an attack on the Romans in the dark. As far as Gao Shun and others observed, although the Parthians' attack was discovered by the Romans, it was still When it was too close, there was no way to stop it.

"Everyone listen to my order, rush, and land on the beach!" Fars Sassan realized that his grandson had already launched an attack when he saw the flames burning in the Roman camp, and he was trying to contain his opponent. Without any hesitation, he personally Boarded the pontoon and ordered to cross by raft.

The Roman camp was definitely not chaotic, because of Benito’s prudence, all the elites of the [-]th and [-]th Eagle Banner Legion were stationed on the periphery, so although they were caught off guard by the sudden attack of the Parthians, they did not cause any trouble. Shake up the whole camp.

It's just that Ardashir knew his purpose better. He didn't come here to compete with the Romans, but to attract the attention of the Romans. Therefore, under the cover of night, Ardashir's team was almost a long strip. In a short time half the Roman camp was attacked.

Under the black light and blind fire, there were shouts of the Parthian people everywhere, and the momentum was so huge that even Benito wondered if the Parthian army had already crossed the Tigris River, let alone the ordinary soldiers below.

Therefore, the camp that was originally stationed was obviously in chaos at this time. Even if the suppression of the 45th and 45th Legion did not completely collapse the barbarians, the Tenth and [-]th Legion was gradually attracted by Ardashir's full-scale attack. .

"Come on!" Fars Sassan roared angrily standing on the pontoon bridge. Countless rafts had already been prepared, taking advantage of the darkness, when the Romans had no time to fight back, and only a third of the river width remained. , struggling to cross the Tigris River!
"Kill!" Datis took the lead and led his personal guards to successfully grab the beach, and immediately stepped on the cold river water under the night, and attacked the Romans against the clouds on both sides!

"Come on!" Fars Sassan was overjoyed when he saw this scene. After Datis charged over, many Parthians followed Datis' direction and rushed to the river bank. Under the organization of the Romans, they quickly launched an attack on the archers arranged by the Romans on the river beach, preparing for the landing of more Parthians later.

As more and more soldiers crossed the Tigris River in Anxi, and even gradually began to have an organization and scale, Fars Sassan made a decisive decision and rushed over by himself by boat. At this time, the Han army passed by boat leisurely. Walk.

"This kind of chaotic battle is very good. On such a flat plain, it is not so easy for the Parthians to attack the Romans who have such a tight defense, and they are gradually stabilizing the line of defense. Brothers copy weapons and come to help the friendly army!" After Li Jue came to the other side of the river , Already excited, at this time the sky was already dawn, and the Romans had stabilized the front under Benito's command.

However, when Li Jue was copying weapons and preparing to help, the situation on the Roman side had undergone tremendous changes. It was obvious that Benito had a good vision. He knew his purpose and priorities, so he didn't show Li Jue at all. Chance.

Although compared with the continuous emergence of the Fars-Sassanian army, this line of defense cannot last for too long, but at this level, the Romans have no need to support it. Their rear line of defense only needs to resist for a while. Then you can retreat directly.

"Ferruccio, inform Elklan that they will retreat. The [-]th Army will be led by you and retreat while fighting. The [-]th Army will follow me." Benito commanded the army to attack alternately, replacing the barbarians who were easy to break through. Army, let it carry out auxiliary attacks, and then covered by the fifteenth army, ready to let these people retreat first.

"Where are you going?" Ferruccio asked.

"Withdraw to the west of the Euphrates River, where the defense line has been built, and after withdrawing there, we can recruit troops on the spot to replenish our troops. Please go and notify, and I will block it first." Benito calmly faced The adjutant Ferruccio ordered, and Ferruccio also knew that this time should not be wasted too much, so he went to inform immediately.

 Oh, today is the last day, I'm dizzy, if that's the case, keep asking for tickets, if you get killed on the last day, it will be a tragedy
