Led by Africanas, the third legion of the Eagle Banner, which was the main bodyguard in Rome, showed no fear in the face of the shield guards pushing forward. It relied on its terrifying size and unimaginable strength to directly confront them.
The Shield Guards launched a counterattack.
With enough physical strength, the Third Eagle Banner easily completed the suppression of the shield guards. It is obvious that the quality displayed by this group of giants has completely approached and surpassed the ordinary three talents. Although the shield guards are strong,
Facing such a crushing level of attack, we can only protect ourselves.
"This looks really shocking." Huangfu Song looked at the soldiers of the Third Eagle Flag who were waving their weapons and trying to defeat the surrounding besiegers. The pure strength and defense, coupled with the tall figure, made Huangfu Song really emotional.
thousand.
What kind of legion is the most difficult to deal with? It’s the kind that doesn’t look special, but is extremely powerful and has terrible defense. As long as you can’t kill the opponent on the battlefield, and the opponent can continue to output, then failure is not too far away.
Already.
It is obvious that the Third Eagle Banner Corps already possesses such characteristics. As for what Zhang Ren said before about his Yuyang Cavalry casually stabbing to death with one shot, Huangfu Song just listened and said, "There is no way, it's fate."
The effect of the system is sometimes very outrageous.
However, knowing that the opponent has a fatal flaw, Huangfu Song is not so emotional. Although even if there is a fatal weakness, the opponent is still invincible in the army and is the first choice to rush forward to break the formation, but if it is to be dealt with, it is not
There is no way.
"Afrikanas' giant transformation is really reliable. Whether it is strength or defense improvement, it is a bit outrageous." Nigel looked at Afrikanas's back. Although he had said before
The other party has said how much his transformation into a giant has improved, but the description in words is really not as shocking as seeing it with one's own eyes.
"But the opponent was still defeated by the Archangel Zhang Ren, and the strength of the two sides was almost the same." Little Pabinian said calmly, "Duke, you'd better use your monarch talent quickly. The Archangel opposite opened
I have created a thing that is very similar to the monarch's talent. Considering the current situation, it seems that the opponent wants to go around and penetrate the rear of our army."
"Wait a minute, the situation has not reached that level yet, but you have to judge that there is no problem. The other party is indeed planning to pass from the fifteenth day of Chuang and then cut into our back line." Nigel shook his head first, then followed.
He nodded again, the tactics of the Han Dynasty were simple and effective.
"I have to admit that Huangfu Song is indeed better at command than me." Nigel said with emotion, "But war is more than just command. Ordering Anulinus to attack with all his troops, the Han Dynasty
Since you want to go around the back, then give him a hard blow and let him fight head-on. Give up the back line and let him kill!"
Nigel knew very well the thoughts of the Roman high-level officials. Eliminating the elite backbone of the barbarians was one of the tasks in itself. In this case, the Han Dynasty crossed the line and went around to kill the Roman barbarians. In Nigel's view, it was disgraceful.
Acceptable level.
Since the loss is within the acceptable range, we must make the best choice within the limit of this range. There is no doubt that strengthening the frontal offensive is the best choice. It is indeed a good tactic to work around the back, but
But it will dilute the overall combat effectiveness of each side.
Rome itself had a military advantage, and its total military strength was more than 1.5 times that of Huangfu Song. After Huangfu Song diluted the frontal troops, it was also an opportunity for Nigel.
Following Nigel's command, fifteen thousand men of the Second Parthian Legion, under the command of Anullinus, launched in the direction of the Han army with guns in hand, shields in one hand and short spears on their backs.
Total attack, yes, Anulinus' attack really counts as a total attack.
After all, compared to the other five thousand Eagle Banner Legions, the Second Eagle Banner led by Anulinus had a scale of fifteen thousand, and they were all close combat backbones.
You must know that this legion was Severus's personal army in official history. It was the backbone of Severus' attack on the winter capital of Ctesiphon. It gained the largest wave of experience in attacking Parthia and became the most powerful Roman legion in the early third century AD. It is known as
A single Eagle Banner Corps is enough to suppress any three Eagle Banners and their auxiliaries.
It has the combat power of a single Eagle Banner to crush the Duke's headquarters all the way. Anulinus even led the headquarters, which was not the Second Eagle Banner at the time, to single-handedly challenge Nigel and win the battle, allowing Severus to win.
Territory belonging to Nigel, unified Rome.
However, this is the plot of official history. In this life, Anulinus did not have time to fight Nigel, the Battle of Issus did not have time to fight, and the backbone of the Second Eagle Banner Corps did not have time to take advantage of this wave.
Experience, the same strength that Anulinus had not discovered, plus the appearance of Caesar at the last moment of the Parthian War...
Under the watchful eye of Caesar, the Tenth Eagle Banner Legion did the work of the original Second Parthian Legion in history, killing an Eagle Banner and a triple talent, crushing the last hope of the Parthian Empire.
This country was completely destroyed.
You must know that these are what Anulinus should have led the Second Parthia to do. In fact, Severus had already summoned his Eagle Banner headquarters to intercept it. Unfortunately, the Tenth Knight rushed like a mad dog.
Come here and open Wushuang directly.
So much so that the Second Parthia, which was originally going to be extremely tragic, fought against the Soul of the Counterattack and the Three Talents with two talents. In the end, they won the fierce battle and got the same glory as the Second Trajan back then, and then shouldered the responsibility of the Second Parthia.
The two eagles turned back to Rome.
It's a pity that the Second Parthian Legion was born at the wrong time. It failed to catch up with the two transformation periods in history, so that it can be powerful now. However, unlike the official history in the early third century, it can fight against the three eagles of Rome at the same time.
Its combat effectiveness is still far behind.
Of course, Anulinus did not realize this, nor did the Second Parthian soldiers. The former is the kind of person who knows his hands but not his brain. If you ask him to watch Nigel's command and operation,
He may not be able to learn it, but if you let him and Nigel lead troops to fight directly, Nigel might capsize.
But this man had no such opportunity, because he could not show himself. You must know that in the Battle of Issus, the task given by Severus to Anulinus was only to block Nigel's offensive. Anulinus blocked it.
Then, with a sudden move, Nigel was taken away directly.
This is not an ability judged through the so-called brain screening, but a more realistic, simple and rough intuition, close to the situation of soldiers. This is a kind of ability that is of no use by talking, and can only be fought with a flash of inspiration.
That kind of person.
Therefore, Anulinus himself did not know that he could become a famous general, and Severus himself did not know that if Caesar did not appear on the Parthian battlefield, he would be forced to lead his own bodyguard, the Second Parthian Legion, to fight.
In a decisive battle, in the end not only the personal guard will be promoted, but he himself will also reach Huangfu Song's current level due to his extreme operation.
But how old was Severus and how old was Huangfu Song? This was the problem. Unfortunately, once Caesar came out, everything was over.
This is why, when possible, it is necessary to let young people gain experience as much as possible, rather than letting old guys gain experience, because the experience bars of those old people are already too long, and they may not grow if they gain experience.
And let young people gain experience, and the same experience may lead to many levels. This is the importance of cultivating the next generation.
It is a pity that the appearance of Caesar gave those players who needed a chance to expose their qualifications no chance to do so, because when there is a choice, stopping loss is a natural behavior for an empire. The problem is that without this loss
, then there will be no next generation.
Zhuge Kongming was indeed infallible and indeed a genius, but the Shu Han's too shallow accumulation left Zhuge Liang with almost no room for error. Naturally, he did not dare to waste his accumulation to cultivate new people, and could only wait for the situation to improve slightly.
, continue to cultivate them, and once they finally pass away, there will be basically nothing to look forward to.
The current situation in Rome is not so bad, but the Battle of Parthia, the largest imperial war to date, should have been the most tragic opportunity for the Roman legions to advance. Without Caesar, Severus and Perennis would still win.
Even if it's a bit miserable, the benefits of winning in the end will be more than having one more Caesar now.
Because the two Huangfu Songs who can go to the battlefield at any time are more meaningful to the country than Caesar, Bai Qi, and Han Xin, who can only stay in the sanctuary of their own national destiny. Moreover, such a tragic battle is equivalent to the defeat of Rome.
The reshuffling of the Eagle Flag.
The significance of Caesar to Severus is more of a political legacy. The combined existence of the Julius and Claudius families, the most orthodox first dynasty in Rome, allowed Severus to add this to his surname.
With a few words, he gained the allegiance of the first assistant, fifth, sixth, seventh, ninth, tenth, eleventh, twelfth, thirteenth and fourteenth.
Because in essence, the above-mentioned legions are all the heritage of the Claudius dynasty. Severus inherited the surnames of Julius and Claudius from Caesar, and naturally obtained these legacies. These legacies
It is very important, and it has the significance of eliminating conflicts among domestic political forces and uniting various regional forces in the country.
However, compared to Severus himself defeating Parthia, the power brought by the Second Parthians carrying the Parthian king's banner and coming back with a great victory to bloodbath the Senate was still inferior.
Of course, these things have already happened and cannot be changed. Even when there is no way to verify this possibility, Severus himself even feels that the current situation is very good.
After all, it is the orthodoxy of Julius and Claudius, and the bonus to the country's administrative command ability is unexpected. At least the eleven loyal Claudius, who has not returned for many years, came back and started to circle around Severus.
