Chapter 5525 Anger

But it is also very dangerous now. If Zhang Ren falls off the horse, falls to the ground, and cannot get up, the Romans will rush out immediately, and the opponent is gone, but they will definitely keep their eyes on this place.

"Quickly retreat to the camp." Zhang Ren said to Ji Ling in a hoarse voice, "Do your best to assist the army to retreat, don't delay, I won't last long, and the meridians are severely damaged."

Hearing this, Ji Ling asked the middle base camp to quickly clean up the battlefield, and led Zhang Ren and Gao Lan to retreat quickly, while Africa, who had sent people to watch this scene, was sure that Zhang Ren was not dead, so he did not die. After chasing again, Zhang Ren's life and death are related to Anulinus' judgment.

"The opponent retreated?" Anulinus looked at Africa and asked.

"Yes, Zhang Ren looks seriously injured." Africa replied.

"You shouldn't..." Filippo looked at Anulinus's expression, feeling a little worried in his heart. Filippo also vaguely saw Anulinus looking at the Guards Department of the Second Eagle Banner Corps. eyes.

Similarly, Africanus also showed a dignified expression. In fact, both Filippo and Anulinus realized a problem, that is, the hidden dangers of the Second Eagle Banner Legion after the number of elite barbarians increased. .

Unlike the Fourth Eagle Banner Legion, the Scythians and Macedonians of the Fourth Eagle Banner Legion were bathed in the honor of Rome, and they themselves admitted that they were fighting for the honor of Rome.

But the barbarian guards under Anulinus have a big problem. Africa hadn't noticed this before, but this time, facing the cavalry who entered the shooting star state, these were composed of the most backbone of the past. The Praetorians formed by the citizens promoted by the barbarians are not even as good as the dual-talented citizens.

At least those dual talents composed of black-haired and black-eyed dual-talented citizens did not collapse in the face of the completely explosive Tunqi. Behavior.

In fact, this was an inevitable situation after the Roman Empire absorbed the barbarians. Did the barbarians become citizens in order to continue fighting for the Roman Empire?No, the barbarian became a citizen for the welfare of the citizen, and it was for these that he worked so hard at the beginning.

But now that they have become citizens, why do they continue to work hard? They are very different from those real citizens who have a complete patriotic education and fight for the Roman Empire. Barbarians don't have these.

Roman citizens can fight to the death for the country when necessary. Although the Roman Empire allows the legion of citizens to surrender when the war is completely defeated, and then redeemed by Rome, the defeat of Roman citizens is a defeat, but they collapse when they can still fight This situation, at least before Severus, had never happened before.

According to the official history, the fighting power of the Roman Empire declined after Severus reached its peak, not only because of lack of money, but also because of the reason for fighting. After the barbarians became citizens, they had no reason to fight.

It's not that they lack quality or fighting power. On the contrary, barbarians who can become citizens with military exploits are definitely the best among citizen soldiers, and they can also become knights as barbarians, and they are also the best among knights.

But when they reach this level, when they don't have the idea of ​​continuing to climb, they will fall instantly. They have a strong body, they also have powerful skills, and they also have the experience honed from the field of life and death. they do not?

Are the weapons of the national army bad?Are there not many people?Can it fight?No.

In terms of analogy, it is probably the 50th Army. During the civil war, the combat effectiveness was low and basically unable to form combat effectiveness. After the Korean War two years later, the first, second, third and fourth Korean Wars were directly full. In the third battle, there were no weapons of the same level. Under such circumstances, the British heavy tank battalion was completely wiped out in Seoul. The difference in combat effectiveness is not a problem.

Has the person changed?In fact, the basics have not been changed, have the weapons been changed?In fact, it's still the same, it's just one more reason to fight.

For the barbarians of the Second Eagle Banner Legion, they no longer had a reason to fight. They had already become citizens. Why did they fight to the death? What was the point?Can I be promoted?Basically not, it is not so easy to go from citizen to knight. When a citizen bullies men and women in Rome, fish and other barbarians are so good, why go to the battlefield.

In the past, a barbarian guard with colorful hair and green hair, in order to become a citizen, would definitely stay in place and fight to the death. Even if the battle damage was 80%, as long as the order was in place, all the survivors would be citizens. Barbarians will fight to the end.

Because the cavalry is not strong, even if they enter the state of transcendence of will, only some soldiers can reach it, and they will burn out with only two or three blows. Is the swap ratio to three a problem for the Barbarians?

not a problem.

But it is a problem for the barbarians who have become citizens. After finally becoming a citizen, they just want to die here?
Nonsense it is!
What's wrong with me, I think I can't beat it. The Roman Citizenship Law allows us to surrender when we can't beat it. I just lay down. If it doesn't work, just kick me out. Am I violating the Roman Citizenship Law?No, I just can't beat my opponent.

Shameless, right, but it makes sense.

The Roman Empire allowed citizens to surrender when they were unable to defeat their opponents, and then the Roman Empire would even pay to redeem these defeated citizens. If the Roman Empire did not redeem these citizens, these citizens fled back by themselves. As long as they set foot on the territory, he is an enemy country The status of the slave will be released, and then his status will be restored.

So for the barbarians, if they break up, they break up. If they can beat them, they will fight.

In the past, when there were not so many barbarians in the Roman Legion, this problem did not exist. Because there were few barbarians, even if they wanted to break up, it would not have any effect if their comrades did not break up, and even one person would affect each other.

Among a large group of regular citizens, there are one or two barbarians, and the barbarians will also be influenced by patriotic education, and then fight to the death for Rome, but the problem now is that the entire Guard Department of the Second Eagle Banner Legion is full of barbarians, and they are all fighting for peace , a powerful barbarian who rose up with military exploits.

Each of them has basically smelted one or two talents, and they are definitely first-class players at the level of the Imperial Guard. To put it too far, after the seven or eight hundred elites who had entered the state of transcendence of will were burned out, the garrisons returned to their natural level, and the remaining imperial guards could hold them back if they tried their best.

This is also why, before Zhang Ren's third destiny was driven to the limit, Afrikanas led the Third Eagle Banner Army to adapt to the attack intensity of the cavalry, and began to accumulate strength to prepare for a counterattack, forcing Zhang Ren Had to start the fourth destiny.

Because Tunqi is really strong after the dual-will talent blooms, but it is really not strong enough to crush the Imperial Guards. The Imperial Guards can't beat them, but at least they can hold the opponent, at least Afrikaner After the Second Eagle Banner Legion changed its will state, his own legion, with the assistance of Filippo, really withstood the runaway cavalry.

There was even room to prepare for a counterattack. What really made Anulinus give up and continue fighting was actually the performance of the Guards of the Second Eagle Banner Legion. As the Guards, they naturally collapsed. Really never seen.

To be precise, Anulinus, who has been the head of the legion in Rome for more than ten years, has never seen the soldiers collapse on their own when the Praetorian Guards were still able to fight and the head of the legion did not give up. You are still citizens of the Roman Empire ?Is there still a sense of citizens fighting for the empire?
No, the barbarians promoted on a large scale, without the patriotic education passed on by more citizens, have no such awareness at all, this is the reality.

What's even more painful is that Anulinus has no way to deal with these soldiers, because they have expressed that they can't beat the opponent on a large scale, so they choose to avoid, at least legally, it is in line with Roman law.

At most, the former Roman citizens did not take the initiative to touch this point. The patriotic education they experienced let them know why they fought and why they died. Sometimes people live just to touch it one day. I can say with my conscience that I can die for something, and this is the so-called belief.

Undoubtedly, the barbarian did not.

This is a point that Anulinus, who hated barbarians, was very angry. If he was a real Roman citizen, Anulinus would not retreat, he would continue to fight, and he was not blind. Anulinus understood that the Tuen Qi he faced before was the peak Tuen Qi.

Zhang Renqiang is strong, but there is a limit, at least with the fourth eagle emblem in hand, the limit is there, but Anulinus can't fight anymore, because the strongest headquarters doesn't contribute, will the other legions contribute?Will citizens do the same thing when they look at those they should learn from?One rat droppings ruined a pot of soup, that's it.

Looking at the guard soldiers with brightly colored hair, after the war ended, they showed no solemnity, but told each other about their previous wit. Anulinus really wanted to kill, but unfortunately he couldn't do it. A legion commander is not qualified to judge these thousands of citizens.

Even if it is Perennis, there is no good way to face this kind of behavior. According to Roman law, there has never been a Roman citizen who cannot avoid war when he cannot fight. Surrender is allowed. I am just avoiding war. Why not allow it.

If you don't allow it, I'll just surrender next time. Anyway, if you surrender, you still have to redeem me according to the regulations. If you don't redeem me, I will redeem myself, and then run back.

 The historical fact that the Roman barbarians entered the Roman legion on a large scale, resulting in a decline in combat effectiveness, is estimated to be directly posted by a group of friends, so I will not write
