Augustus Under the Horseshoe

Vol 2 Chapter 449: : The Battle of Trabzonspor (2)

Seeing that so many battle groups were killed, there were still soldiers who were barely obedient, and some of them went to assist in the fight because of their fellow soldiers.

People from the Trabzonspor faction naturally know the reinforcements. While leaving the camp, they sent many scouts and messengers to other battle groups. Then, a large number of battle groups were moved by them and joined the battle. , And those foreign troops and auxiliary troops didn't even know what happened, so they were dragged onto the battlefield by the Romans in a daze.

In the end, there were only the Thousand-Man War Group directly under Peturabo, and four that had been split from the Fourth Scythus Army. The battle commander admired and feared the battle group, which remained firmly anchored by the Lord of Steel. Beside.

"Finally caught the bait, call Simon's army back, and leave five hundred people to monitor the city gate."

Seeing the imperial army marching forward slowly in coordination with the steps, Painhurs gave a confident smile and immediately began to dispatch the army.

The other party seemed to be non-skilled, he was stimulated to be like this, and he still maintained a neat military appearance. If it were the simple-minded barbarians, the cavalry might directly issue a bloodthirsty and violent battle cry, rushing over fiercely, and then being eaten by himself.

However, these elves did not. The 21 field battle groups that played in each battle group had four cavalry companies, four infantry companies, and two shooter companies. Fourteen frontier teams, each with five infantry companies and five marksman companies.

The one hundred and fifty-four phalanx formed by purely armored infantry, walked at the forefront of the team. They took strides that shook the sky and the earth, holding aloft a brand new eagle flag embroidered with imperial eagles and religious symbols on one hundred and fifty-four sides, and marching forward neatly, pointing straight to the sky of steel spears, densely arranged. Together, it is like a forest of steel.

Behind them, followed by a hundred and twelve terrorist brigades composed purely of heavy armor and longbows, and hundreds of towering giants. More than 800 bards held high the eagle flag, beat the drums hard, sounded the bugle, and the blood-boiled Roman war hymn echoed under the cover of night!

On both sides of the army, 8,000 Crete tauren and 10,000 Thracian barbarians were guarded.

Eighty-four companies, a total of 8,400 heavy cavalry were divided into two halves, ready to go behind the left and right wings of the infantry, more than 12,000 prairie archers, Tai Nuh’s desert rangers, accompanied by some Persian heavy cavalry assists in combat.

"The opponent has too much long-range projection power, and the range is far beyond the compound shortbow longbowmen. Except for the centaurs, other nomads are difficult to fight. However, the good news is that the scorpion crossbow has disappeared from their combat sequence. Was it abandoned because it was bulky and couldn't move fast with it?"

After seeing the opponent's position clearly, Painhurs frowned slightly.

"Wind howl! Poet dead! The priests of Eastern Gothic! Get together! Keep an eye on the opponent's spellcasters, if they cast spells, they will immediately counter and disarm them! I don't want my army to be overshadowed by the sky. The blazing fireball is completely swallowed!"

"Your will!"

"Goblin Skasnik, you are the first to act, take your people head-on! Then use Parthian tactics to seduce the heavy cavalry to a suitable angle, and continue to consume their physical strength and life with bows and arrows. ."

"Onardo the Beast, Selena, your orcs and cats take the second action. Go to the two wings to test the combat effectiveness of their cavalry. If possible, try to lead them away from the infantry."

"no problem."

"Yrel! Take your satyr flute-herder, quietly roundabout, jammed between the hills and these soldiers. After all, those longbowmen are not horses. They seem to be able to march and fight with two bags of arrows on their back. Use up before us. If there is logistics to send them arrows, they will kill them all, not one left."

"Yes."

"Ashana, your Eastern Gothic infantry guards the hill giants and guarantees that the bombing garbage on their shoulders will not be attacked when they pour anger on the elves."

"I pledge my life."

After arranging everything, the warchief took the most powerful force of the tribe, and his men and horses were quietly waiting for the emergence of the fighter...

————————————————

The wolves roared and the goblins howled. Ten thousand goblins riding the prairie wolves roared out of the tribe's position. Some of them were holding curved bows and some holding spear throwers. A sea of ​​steel shrouded in the red shirt, for the warchief to consume the opponent's ammunition... I mean to test the combat effectiveness of the Eastern Roman War Group.

Among these goblins, those who are qualified to ride or have the ability to tame a wolf screamed with excitement. With the spear thrower that can double the damage and range of the spear, and the short made of composite materials. The bow shot out black clouds covering the sky and the sun.

For a time, arrows are like rain, javelins are like locusts, and endless projectile weapons are pressed down from the top of the head like a stormy sea, biting the huge iron-plated tower shield on the surface of the heavy infantry, and the heavy chain armor forged by the best craftsmen. Above, thousands of sparks burst out along with the noisy and dense impact sound.

If we continue according to this system, I am afraid it will only take a generation, nestled inside the unbreakable castle, and there are almost countless border warfare groups that can be done. There will be only negligence in training, fishing all day long, and ignorance of various tactics. Recruits. A plate of meat with a glass of wine, an officer who lay in a room for a day.

However, although the frontier battle group has fallen, most of the members are veterans killed from the sea of ​​blood in the corpse mountain. Although the movements are a little rusty, their muscles and bodies still remember how to fight. The tortoise formation they put out is unbreakable, so that goblins. We feel that they are not shooting at the enemy, but at a thick wall.

The longbowmen behind the heavy infantry were hesitant. Are these goblins worth wasting their energy and arrows? The casters are calm, these goblins are not worthy of wasting their spell slots.

One hundred feet! Eighty feet! Sixty feet!

"Throw!!!"

One by one, the centurions roared and pulled out the small spears inserted inside the shield, and threw them at the goblin wolf ride through the small gaps in the shield. In an instant, the sound of thousands of spears roaring and tearing the air was creepy! Like a wave of steel, it instantly flooded the goblin's wolf rider, and the wolves that rushed in the front were instantly pierced into a **** sieve, and wailed and fell into a pool of blood.

The entire huge goblin tens of thousands were instantly cut off by the empire's projected weapons, and the corpses were bloody, but the remaining wolf cavalry still trampled on the corpses of the same robe and charged forward!

"Lance!!!"

The centurions issued a counter-riding instruction again. The Imperial soldiers hiding behind the tortoise shells immediately picked up a two-meter-long spear and pushed their sharp bodies out of the tower after throwing the spear. The gap between the shield and the tower shield makes the tortoise formations composed of companies look like hedgehogs in iron armor, making it difficult for the cavalry to speak up.

"Parthia!!!"

Hundreds of goblins also screamed wildly. They just put on the appearance of a cavalry rushing into the battle, but at the last moment, they turned the wolf's head, the whole army, almost sold a show on the face of the Romans, and relied on lightness. The mobility of the cavalry withdrew, twisting the waist by the way, and continuing to harass the imperial front with long-range projectile weapons.

The centurions were a little speechless. The soldiers had two hands, one hand had to hold a shield to defend, and the spear in the right hand could not hold the spear. Facing the impact of the cavalry, even the light cavalry did not use the spear to countercharge. It is tantamount to suicide, in case you order to throw a spear to chase and kill, the other party turns around and rushes back...

Thinking about it, the commander of the battle group commanding infantry operations turned his head to ask for help from the longbowmen. The latter rolled his eyes and shot two arrows at a very fast speed. The rain of arrows that covered the sky whizzed down from the sky, clusters of steel arrows. , Easily got into the thin skins of wolves and goblins, and splashed flowers of splendid blood in the screams of pain.

At this moment, the mighty green-skinned cavalry and the cat clan also circled to the sides of the Romans one by one, trying to test each other's strength.

Like cats standing upright, facing the prairie archers loyal to the empire, the two sides are separated by hundreds of feet with bows and arrows, madly pouring the majestic arrow rain, and at the same time carefully avoiding the slightly slow-moving Persian style Heavy cavalry, avoid their terrible sharp edge.

On the orc side, the Tainuh people from the desert of the Middle East are not as vicious and cunning as the steppe people, let alone any Parthian tactics. There was only a simple white robe under his body, covering the tanned skin that was tanned to wheat.

They drove horses and camels from the Arabian Peninsula, wielded Eastern Roman-style lances, and their own forged scimitars, charging like a sandstorm as swiftly and terribly! Against the rain of arrows from the orcs, regardless of casualties, fear of sacrifice, and the power of thunder and thunder, they directly entangled the green-skinned pioneer cavalry!

"WAAAGH!!!"

The orcs were agitated by such **** enemies, their eyes were congested, and their heads shook out with a battle cry that shook the sky. Using a machete and a heavy axe, they slashed against these people in the desert. Opening the mouth of the blood basin, the horrible fangs like a razor tore the Tainuh's calf and the flesh and blood of the mount.

And some camels that were bitten, with fierce hair, bent their necks with red eyes, and bit the orc's arm in one bite! Four slender and sturdy flat teeth easily penetrated the green leathery skin, and the developed neck muscles violently flicked, directly dragging a hapless green-skinned boy from his mount and threw it more than two meters away. Above the high mid-air!

While the Tainuh light cavalry entangled the greenskins, the slightly slower Persian heavy cavalry also lined up neatly, raising their sharp lances, rounding out the greenskin cavalry's flanks, and crushing the ground with their horses' hoofs. The sound of thunder is like a drum of war, raising dust in the sky.

"Giants! In the name of your King Ferrol! Throwing boulders! Target, those longbowmen!"

Seeing that the goblin wolf rider suffered heavy losses under the rain of arrows from the longbowman, these hill giants carrying two blasting garbage, separated thousands of feet away, shot a terrifying round of slings and huge rocks at the enemy. Like a meteorite, it whizzed and shattered the surrounding air, and fell from the sky with an angry cry! Direct the two archers. It was smashed into a fleet of **** epiphanies, and the heavy armor could not protect their lives!

Seeing the outbreak of war, the governor of Trabzonspor tried to assemble a large army to attack the tribe from end to end.

But-two tribal cavalry with a size of 500 people, staring at their gates, those people's eyes were fierce, and they were licking the cold blade unkindly. After the governor took a look, there was no more. Mention this raid plan.
