Conquer all worlds starting from the mythical Three Kingdoms
Chapter 253 Rome, Eagle Flag (page 12)
The Romans were like silent rocks, standing there steadily without any movement at all.
This calmness also made Li Que and others' fear rise to a higher level.
"It seems that we have underestimated this Rome. It is indeed a tough nut to crack. Even if they are both talented soldiers, they cannot be underestimated!" Guo Bang's face showed excitement.
"Hahahaha, it's hard to chew hard bones that make you strong!" Li Que laughed.
"The Romans' infantry configuration is really good, but if they want to block us like this, then they are thinking too much!"
"Xiliang Iron Cavalry, invincible in the world!"
Li Jue roared angrily, and all the soldiers responded with a loud roar.
All the Xiliang cavalry held their spears in their left hands, clamped the barrel of the gun with their arms, and fired crossbows in their right hands. Their eyes were extremely determined. As the wind and sand swept across the earth, the Xiliang cavalry turned into a black dragon and charged at the Romans.
"Bang bang bang~" There was a loud sound of trembling bowstrings, and Li Que, Guo Bang and Fan Chou Zhang Ji shot arrows at the Roman spear array facing Zhang Xiu at the same time.
The Roman side did not hesitate at all. The long-prepared Roman long archers also set up their bows and fired arrows at Zhang Xiu, who was at the front. It is a common principle in all countries to capture the thief first.
To dampen its edge and lose its will, Rome's choice is good, but it is meaningless for the Xiliang cavalry.
Arrows burst out, and the Romans in front of Zhang Xiu fell almost instantly like harvesting leeks. The lethality of the violent arrow crossbow produced by Huang Tianji was not weaker than the full blow of a dual-talented archer.
The unprepared Roman spear formation was hit hard almost instantly. The shield formation's original means of effectively containing the cavalry was completely destroyed before it had any effect.
This kind of attack that could explode directly caught Rome by surprise.
However, this was only the beginning. What made the Roman ghosts even more worried was that their arrow rain was completely ineffective.
When they chose the Flying Bear Legion led by Zhang Xiu as their target, everything was doomed.
The Flying Bear Legion, equipped with a gravity shield, completely ignores all kinds of long-range physical attacks.
In the unbelievable ten waves of arrows from the Romans, no hair was injured, the gravity shield defense was fully covered, and the war horses were immune to bows and arrows...
The arrows rained wildly, but had no effect. Without the assistance of the gun formation, how could the shield-holding infantry in front be the opponent of Fei Xiong.
"Hundred Phoenixes Chaoyang!"
Along with the sound of phoenix cries, several phoenixes transformed from inner energy directly bombarded the Roman front line. The clouds above the Roman front line only held up for a moment before being submerged by the overwhelming phoenix flames. In an instant, the entire front line was in chaos.
"Demigod?" Ganassis looked in Zhang Xiu's direction in confusion. After the change in the sky, Rome also had its birth, but at this moment, Zhang Xiu's feeling to Ganasis was no weaker than that of those demigods.
After Zhang Xiu's move, the entire first line of defense of Rome was completely thrown into chaos. The strike of the violent arrow crossbow and Zhang Xiu's god descended to earth, causing these Roman soldiers to suffer heavy losses.
The Xiliang Cavalry led by Zhang Xiu became excited. The previous attack had a completely different meaning to the Xiliang Cavalry. They finally had a master who could hold up the field.
"Kill!" Zhang Xiu took the lead and charged directly into the Roman formation.
As Zhang Xiu stabbed the Roman soldier first, countless Roman soldiers were pierced by spears in the next moment. The Xiliang cavalry penetrated the first line of defense of the Roman rear army, but the speed did not slow down at all. Ganassis carefully deployed the second line of defense.
Countless arrows were fired in their direction, but to no avail.
Rome's original level of manufacturing bows and arrows was mediocre. Their strongest weapons were heavy infantry and cavalry. However, after fighting with Anxi for so many years, they absorbed the combat arms that Anxi was best at.
The ultra-high rate of fire and extended range of Parthian archers, Parthian bow-making skills, and the talent composition of Parthian horse archers were all absorbed by Rome.
Then Parthia was violently beaten by Rome. At first, it was able to rely on mercenaries to carry out a classic annihilation like the Calle War, but it became more and more powerless later on. Now it has been beaten near Ctesiphon with a group of barbarians.
The Romans were also good at adapting to local conditions. They discovered that covering the rain of arrows did not require a high level of archery. It was enough to be able to kill the Parthian horse archers who were light cavalry, and the light cavalry pursued speed. The defense is very poor, so there is no need for strong attack power.
Think about it, a group of 5,000 elite archers shot more than 200,000 arrows into a cup of tea, and the light cavalry and light infantry were almost completely restrained to death.
However, all this is meaningless to the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and it is even more meaningless to the Flying Bear, the top unit of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry.
"The left wing and the right wing immediately retracted with the center diagonally! Give up the siege, block the gate of Ctesiphon, the cavalry will attack, go around the enemy's rear and attack from the rear!"
"The archers move to the wings and attack from behind!"
The Xiliang cavalry with extremely strong frontal defense capabilities reminded Ganassis of the Ninth Spanish Legion, the elite Eagle Banner Corps in Rome.
The talent effect of this legion allows them to have super frontal defense capabilities when charging, but they cannot take care of both ends. As long as they attack from behind, they can break through the defense.
However, Ganassis's empiricism made him suffer even more. The Flying Bear was not the Ninth Spanish Legion, but a more powerful Army Soul Legion than him.
"Abandon the gun and change the knife!" Li Que yelled. Although the Roman heavy infantry defense line was penetrated twice, it also blocked them on the third line of defense, mixing with the defense line of the Ganassis Guards. , stronger than the first two lines of defense combined.
But it also made Li Que discover Rome's problem. He suddenly discovered that the Romans were strongest on the outside!
In other words, after breaking through the outer defense line, the battlefield will once again enter the slaughter phase that the Xiliang Cavalry is most familiar with.
Although Zhang Xiu acted as the vanguard, he was only acting as the vanguard. The real commanders of the Xiliang Cavalry were Li Que and the others.
Upon hearing the order, the Xiliang cavalry threw away their spears without hesitation and replaced them with new swords for melee combat.
The Flying Bear soldier threw out the spear fiercely, and the spear flew tens of meters with gravity before falling. Compared with arrows, the power attached to the spear was enough to penetrate both people and shields. !
"Military souls!? They are military souls! Fly the eagle flag!" Ganassis roared crazily as he stared at the battlefield. As the Eastern Duke of Rome, how could he not know what a military soul was?
Ganassis now wanted to strangle Emperor Anxi directly to death. Are you kidding? It is really difficult to bring Anxi to death.
This is not the first time that they have seen military spirit legions from other countries on the battlefield of Anxi. The last military spirit legion that Rome saw was the military spirit of the Huns.
Caught off guard, the Roman parliamentary guards were directly defeated by the Huns. If the Roman army had not been so majestic, the battle might have been a big deal.
Under that situation, Rome finally chose to withdraw its troops. This is the deterrent power of the Army Soul Legion.
Since then, the Roman Parliamentary Guards have completely introduced the battle sequence, squatting in the rear and acting as buff producers.
