Chapter 291

Itching suddenly appeared in my mind, and then I wanted to sleep extremely. Did the sleeping devil in my heart wake up? The price has been rising rapidly these days. I'm in an unstable mood. Ha ha.

----------

Of course, this kind of lethal tactics also made the young and strong population of ancient Rome lose blood continuously in the war, then weaken continuously, and decline completely after several internal battles.

The Carthaginian soldiers fought back. The big shield pushed forward desperately, and the short sword in their right hand was ready to go. After the ancient Roman soldiers were pushed down, what was waiting for them was the whereabouts of the big shield and the pain of the short sword stabbing into their chest.

In any case, as the two armies collided together, a fierce fight began immediately.

Short sword, big shield, javelin, fist, head, any weapon that can be used, greet the enemy as quickly as possible!

Of course, in terms of equipment, these ancient Roman light infantry who rushed in front suffered a lot.

They don't have lock armor, not even a leather armor.

Due to the lack of armor, they took advantage of the first wave of impact and suffered a great loss in the subsequent scuffle.

If the short sword in their hands attacks the position protected by Suozi armour, it is equivalent to ineffective. Next, the enemy's sharp counterattack will kill them!

But after fighting for a while, these light infantry felt that they disturbed the formation of Carthage soldiers, they quickly retreated and left space for the young soldiers and adult soldiers behind.

These young soldiers and adult soldiers are also flying javelins, but they hold a big shield when they collide, which makes the power of the collision much more than those light infantry.

Under the repeated impact of these ancient Roman soldiers, the formation of Carthage soldiers was difficult to maintain. After a large number of soldiers were killed, the formation in the middle began to retreat.

Wei Xiaobei is not in the battle yet. He moves forward slowly with the square array, so he can watch the scene more leisurely.

Although the soldiers around them didn't make a sound, they were gradually excited by the scream and bloody smell from the fighting ahead.

Wei Xiaobei has decided that if all these ancient Roman soldiers go after them, they will run away immediately.

He didn't want to be coerced in by these ancient Roman soldiers. In the circle of tens of thousands of people, no matter how powerful his personal force was, as long as it didn't reach the level of qualitative change, I'm afraid he could only end up physically exhausted and killed by small soldiers like waste.

Let's put it this way. Although Wei Xiaobei is strong now, his recovery ability has reached the level of limb regeneration. It's difficult for a strong man to cut into Wei Xiaobei's muscles with a kitchen knife, but if he is surrounded by the enemy and consumes constantly, when his recovery ability drops to a certain extent, all kinds of injuries increase together, which is enough to kill Wei Xiaobei.

Just as the Carthaginian soldiers kept retreating and lured the light infantry array into the encirclement one by one, and the young, adult and reserve soldiers behind them followed one after another, the cavalry on the side of ancient Rome mounted one after another under the command of the horn, driving the horses to encircle the Carthaginian army array along the periphery of the battlefield.

There is no doubt that the presence of more than 6000 cavalry on the battlefield has a great effect on morale. Of course, among these cavalry, there are few real Roman Cavalry. Most of them act as the issuing commander, and most of the cavalry are the troops recruited from the colonies by the ancient Roman Empire.

By this time, Hannibal had retreated to the rear of the army, and he also mobilized the army through the sound of the horn.

Soon more than 2000 Carthage cavalry from the left attacked. Their task was to seduce and entangle the ancient Roman Cavalry and prevent the side of Carthage's army from being attacked by cavalry.

At the same time, the right-wing battle elephant array also attacked.

In fact, even Wei Xiaobei saw that with the attack of the 6000 Roman Cavalry, the situation became a little bad for Carthage.

Great Hippias was indeed one of the most outstanding commanders in ancient Rome. He saw through what Hannibal wanted to do at a glance.

Of course, it is impossible for the great Hippias to leave the 6000 cavalry behind. Once Carthage's decline occurs, cavalry assault is bound to happen.

To tell the truth, Wei Xiaobei's square array is not in a good position. It is on the left wing and happens to be against those war elephants.

Seeing the momentum of the war elephant, the ancient Roman soldiers around Wei Xiaobei turned pale even though they had experienced hundreds of battles.

Facing the impact formation of war elephants, even the strongest ancient Roman soldiers could not resist it!

At this time, the horn of ancient Rome sounded, and the stone throwers from Parma pushed forward quickly. Some of them stood behind with musical instruments such as trumpets.

It has to be said that the skill of these pitchers is too rough. They can blow the horn, but the sound is completely naked noise.

Obviously, the noise made by hundreds of horns makes the elephants feel very uncomfortable. They even slow down.

At this time, the group of stone throwers rushed up, and the fist sized stone was sleeved on the pitching rope. After shaking desperately for several times on the top of the head, they shot at the war elephants.

Pa Pa Pa, thousands of stones hit the war elephants like raindrops.

Although these war elephants were covered with armor, the continuous impact of stones still hurt these war elephants.

They retreated one after another, and even some timid war elephants turned their heads and ran towards the way they came, trampling many Carthage soldiers on their side to death.

"Woo woo!"

The continuous horn sounded, and the ancient Roman soldiers who formed the square array began to move forward quickly. Wei Xiaobei didn't react slowly, and then followed up.

At this time, the 6000 ancient Roman Cavalry had collided with more than 2000 Carthage cavalry, and in a twinkling of an eye, hundreds of cavalry were stabbed down their horses with long guns.

The more than 2000 Carthaginian cavalry could not withstand the impact of more than twice their own cavalry. They were quickly surrounded and divided, and there were faint signs of collapse in just a few minutes.

On the Middle Road, as the Carthaginian heavy infantry retreated to the bottom of the formation, they began to stabilize the formation and fight back against the ancient Roman soldiers who came up, and the Carthaginian infantry on both wings began to surround the middle.

On the other side, the ancient Roman phalanx mixed with Wei Xiaobei has launched an attack on the Carthage soldiers who were confused by the war elephants.

In fact, before that, the horn of Carthage had sounded, and the order should be to retreat slowly and withdraw from the battlefield.

After all, by this time, Carthage has lost its initiative. If we retreat slowly, we may not be able to turn defeat into victory with Hannibal's command ability.

You know, in many battles, Hannibal fought less and retreated more deliberately, which led to the pursuit of ancient Roman soldiers. Finally, with a backhand attack, Hannibal completely defeated the enemy with chaotic formation.

But the Carthage army was so excited that it started the new moon formation too early that it was difficult even to retreat at this time.

Wei Xiaobei mixed in the square and attacked with other ancient Roman soldiers. He killed three Carthage soldiers with a javelin in his hand.

Compared with other ancient Roman soldiers, stabbing javelins in the queue and hitting the enemy's vital points was too simple for Wei Xiaobei.

Although each of these Carthage soldiers has only 30 evolution points, it is not a problem for Wei Xiaobei to brush thousands of evolution points at the end of the battle.

The Carthage soldiers had lost most of their courage and looked very confused, completely missing the tight formation before.

Seeing that the Carthage side was about to collapse completely, Wei Xiaobei vaguely felt that there would be some changes, but such changes did not seem to pose a great threat to himself.

Just after Wei Xiaobei killed the tenth Carthage soldier, the eyes of the ancient Roman soldiers around him turned from contempt to admiration.

Indeed, in the ancient cold weapon army, even if you have some problems in discipline and seem loose and procrastinating, as long as you show enough courage on the battlefield, your colleagues will admire you.

The reason is very simple. Enough powerful colleagues will make them safer in war.

It's like ordinary soldiers are willing to follow the invincible God of the army.

If the general of a cold weapon army is extremely stupid, his soldiers may collapse and escape in a hard battle.

No one is willing to give his life for a stupid general.

But just then, in the military array behind Carthage, a golden pillar of light fell down and quickly spread.

This spreading golden light column seems to have magical power.

All the Carthaginian soldiers who were illuminated by the golden light immediately had a mental shock, high morale and became extremely fierce!

The golden light soon spread near Wei Xiaobei.

Wei Xiaobei feels that this golden light contains a magical power, and even Wei Xiaobei has an illusion.

Under the golden light, I seem to be watched by an incomparably powerful existence! Suddenly the hairs on his back stood up.

The strength of the Carthage soldiers who fought with Wei Xiaobei was suddenly raised under the golden light!

With Wei Xiaobei's national skill attainments and even being familiar with these enemies, it can be clearly judged that after being illuminated by the golden light, the strength of these Carthage soldiers has directly increased from one star elite to the top of one star elite, infinitely close to two stars!

This change is great for these ordinary soldiers. It can be said that their strength has more than doubled.

In contrast, those ancient Roman soldiers, with the sudden increase in the strength of Carthage soldiers, they soon lost some support.

Falling from heaven to hell was fast enough for these ancient Roman soldiers to know what an accident was. (to be continued.)
