Unlimited Military Base

A plot against Caesar is quietly going on. !

At this time, Yakurius, who had been placed high hopes by Pompey, was finally able to lead his troops with satisfaction, and for the first time under Hawke’s command, he embarked on a real battlefield.

His enemies are the largest enemy of the Roman Republic, the Sethyan!

The Parthians are a powerful force, and they have even far surpassed the Persians of the past. And they also successfully defeated the aggression of Rome and killed their commander Krassu!

The Kingdom of Partia is indeed completely different from the Persian Empire of the past. The Persian conquest of Alexandria was an ancient civilization dominated by farming nations. At that time, apart from a few novel weapons, such as war elephants and chariots, the basic tactics of Greece were not much different from those of Greece. The previous battle of Gaugara was a European-style battle, and both sides greeted the enemy with a neat array of squares. It is true that the Roman army represents the highest level of infantry in that era, and there will be no chance of winning any battle between any nation and the Romans.

The Parthians, who replaced the Persian empire, were local nomads who would show the Romans a new tactical idea – a highly maneuverable light cavalry tactic that would be carried forward by the Huns and The Mongolians have become a nightmare for Europe for many years.

Krassu will pay for his greed and arrogance, and tens of thousands of Roman soldiers will have to be buried with him. . . . . .

In the Syrian province of the Roman Republic, the coastal mountains parallel to the Mediterranean coastline are like a solid barrier. The ridge extends from north to south. Protecting the narrow coastal plains and wealthy cities, leaving only three passes to pass this road. Barriers: They are the Omani Pass, the Jura Column and the Syrian Pass.

At the northernmost point of the Amman Pass, the huge stone wall is like a long snake crossing the horizon under the cover of darkness. The road behind it is scarce and many roads are dead. As the tortuous path hovered and the crops became less and less, the land became increasingly barren. Hells, the soldier of the First Battalion of the Sixth Army of the Republic of Rome, is walking on this rugged road. The staggering strange stones reflect the charming moonlight. The shadow of the suddenly rising people is reflected on a piece of stone, showing each All kinds of wonderful – the shape. . . . . .

As a soldier of the Legion, Hells did not have to be on duty, but today the centurion of the first battalion was called to participate in the military conference. So his experienced veteran replaced the centurion to check the whistle.

Hells satisfactorily saw the sentinels on the stone wall sticking to their posts like a pillar. At this time, the sky was gradually brightening, and the vast plains were displayed in front of him: the land outside the fertile land, the cypress trees blocked The invasion of the wind protected the growth and prosperity of the orchard and flowerbed, and the citrus was carefully cared for. The canal ensures the irrigation of crops and vegetables. The wheat field and the sun flower are alternately stacked, which is a thriving scene. To the south of this rich plain is the flat Gobi Desert, with only a few oasis dotted around it.

A cool breeze blew through the air. The earth was fragrant, and it also brought a string of crisp hooves.

“Damn, come again!” Hells sighed angrily and spit out of the thick stone wall.

A small team of Parthian Rangers appeared in the eyes of the guards of the gates. The Parthians were nationals on horseback. The Hispanic horses were not as tall as the Spanish horses and North African horses in the Roman Legion, but they were strong. Powerful, fast, ‘endurance is good, from a young age to accept the training of small steps and run · Run fast and steady. Therefore, the Pattia can still shoot bows very accurately when they are galloping. The most fearful thing for the Roman soldiers is that when the Patiyas quickly retreat, they can return to the archery immediately, but the accuracy is unaffected. “Patiya back to the horse arrow” has become a nightmare for the Roman legionnaires. So, as always, they can only watch the squadrons robbing the grain.

“That’s it, it’s getting better now. These guys are coming more diligently! Like the fucking locusts!” A sentry was sitting next to him.

“I really want to go out and do a sneak peek with them! Where can we get the Roman soldiers in this place besides us?” Another Roman soldier said arrogantly.

Nobody snorted, and the previous battle of Carlisle really scared the Romans. Krassu, one of the three giants of Rome, who was named after Caesar and Pompey, led the seven army regiments of 40,000 Romans to conquer the kingdom of Partia. As a result, in Calés, General Palinea Sulena used only 20,000 cavalry. I am annihilated.

“Have you heard that? We changed a new commander.” Hells looked a bit dull and wanted to change the subject.

“What can I change? The former commanders are also not convinced. Every time we take us out, we are not being beaten back by the barbarians. It is the luck that catches the upper hand and cannot catch up with them.” If you are not a barbarian cavalry, you are not good at siege. You can’t keep it here.” The sentinel who spoke before said sloppily.

“I heard that this new commander has also appointed a chief centurion. It seems that he is a big family of a big family in Rome. He looks like a little girl. Can such a commander command the battle?”

“It is estimated that it is to come to the oil and water, who makes us so fat here, and it is a silver mine and a good field.”

The soldiers talked about it, and there was nothing more to the soldiers to care about than the commander’s ability. A clever commander can let his soldiers pay the least price to win the victory. The soldiers are naturally courageous in their trust, and the morale is low. !

As a veteran, Hells certainly understood this truth, and listened to the arguments of the soldiers, causing him to be annoyed in his chest.

“Okay, give me a shut up, optimistic about your position!” Hells whispered, the sentinels stopped talking about the new commander’s commentary and focused on their own duties.

Hers looked at the sentinels stunnedly, and smashed the Parthian cavalry, who smashed and robbed the wall.

It seems that I can only retire here, and I hope that by the desire to become a Roman citizen, it is estimated that 80% is a bubble. Thinking of this, he was not in the mood to stay on the stone wall again, and turned his face and walked toward the army camp.

Hers, who returned to the station, unexpectedly saw another scene: the centurions who had just returned were busy with sweat, and a new set of weapons and armor piled up like a hill in the middle of the camp.

“Hells, come over!” A centurion glanced at Hers, who was standing there.

“Try these armor and shields, our new governor intends to fight with the Parthians, this time our sixth legion in the first column, our camp in the first row of the legion, the consul gave us some new guys “”

Hells picked up a new shield and smashed the weight. The heavy weight made him immediately aware that the new shield was different from the shield he had used in the past. He carefully observed the new shield.

In the past, the Legionnaires used rectangular wooden shields. They covered most of the body, covered with canvas on the surface, and covered with a layer of leather fixed with metal strips. The upper and lower edges were covered with iron edges to increase the sturdiness of the shield. To protect it from top-down stab damage and wear on the ground. There is also an iron embossed floral ornament on it, which blocks the powerful blows of stones, guns, and heavy throwing weapons. This time, the whole body was actually made of stainless steel. The area is also larger, but there is a semi-circular gap on each side of each shield. I don’t know what to do.

“This is not afraid of the arrows of the Parthians!” Gori glory in the heart.

Hells looked at the new armor with great interest. The new armor was replaced by a steel, and there was another chain of metal rings. The style was nothing, and now he The same is worn by the helmet, breastplate and armor.

However, when Hers’s gaze fell on the weapons the soldiers were receiving, he was immediately taken aback.

“The centurion, what happened? Is it necessary to use a long gun this time?”

Since the second Macedonian war, the Roman legion defeated the long-range guns left by Alexander the Great. The Roman Stiletto has dominated Europe for nearly two hundred years. After the long guns were broken, the long gunners could only fight with the dagger without the protection of the shield. Now the pikemen have basically been eliminated. Each Roman legion is only equipped with about 300 pikemen for attack. Disperse the array of the other party, they are usually placed in the second and third columns. In the battle, the attack is launched through the channel between the squares.

“It seems that I want to use it to deal with the Patty cavalry.” The centurion frowned.

“The Parthians can shoot us like a rabbit outside the scope of our shooting! People will not stupidly rush into our square, even if they hit us, they are defeated by us. How can we hold these stupid guys? Catch up with them? Have you reminded the new consul?”

“I still use you to say, you are all idiots when we are? Have you ever played?” The centurion of the first battalion did not answer with a good spirit.

Hells closed his mouth. A Roman legion had a total of sixty hundred people, that is, sixty centurions. The powers of the sixty centurions are arranged in order. The power of the first battalion’s centurions is greater than the power of the second battalion centurions, and so on. The last battalion, the tenth battalion The captains have the least power.

The promotion of the Roman centurions also rose from the low-level centurion to the senior centurion in this order. There are six centurions in each battalion. The centurion of the first battalion is called the “first squadron” and their power is greater than that of all the centurions in the battalions.

The first franchise of the first battalion was appointed by the veteran of the richest combat experience, the most powerful of which was the centurion of the first 100-man team, known as the “Chief Centurion.” This is the highest centurion of the entire legion, and sometimes he can even command the military operations of the entire legion. For the sake of the safety of the soldiers, if the commander has unreasonable arrangements, he will certainly strive to argue. Now he said this, it is only the execution, and the military law of the Roman legion is not a joke.

“Hels, familiar with the new equipment, will soon start the war.” The new chief centurion, the young Yakurius snorted again, after all, he still likes this experienced veteran of.

“Yes!” Hells, who knows the greatness of the Parthians, answered with anger.

Three days later, Hers first put on his clean, clean linen underwear, and then put on a short-sleeved wool tunic that was dragged directly to the knee, and then put his foot into the body called “Kaligu Military boots.

The military boots are made of leather, the sole has a thickness of four layers of leather, and the short rivets are nailed. Hells rubbed the belt twice at the height of the cheekbones and slammed it twice on the ground, confidently that the boots were fixed. Then, after the Legionnaires helped him to wear armor, Hells stepped out of his own camp, and the Roman soldiers outside were coming out of the camps.

Hells and the Sixth Army! The comrades of the regiment walked along the main road on the plains of Syria to one-third of the time! The hills suddenly appeared. A red sun shines on the front hills. The dew on the leaves of the trees next to the road shines like gems. The trees are like a burning torch. The whole plain is bathed in the bright sunshine. After a while, the local cavalry of Partia ran towards them in all directions.

“The first battalion stopped moving forward! The front row of shields!” Yakurius’s majestic voice came from behind.

Standing in the first row, Hells grabbed the shield handle and set the shield on the ground. The shields of the companions were immediately tight with his shield. Almost at the same time, the sharp arrows of the Parthian cavalry began to pour on the Roman line.

“The first battalion, group turtles!” Yakurius calmly gave orders.

The first battalion quickly gathered the formation, and Hells and the Romans in the first row immediately slammed the shield with a squatting posture. The second row of soldiers placed the shield on the front row of shields. The third row and the soldiers behind were Shields. Over the top of the head, like a tile, so that each hundred-person team, six dense airtight shield array is formed, looking far away like a piece of fish scales.

At the same time that the first battalion quickly formed the turtle array, the second and third battalions around it also formed the turtle array, but because their number was only half of the first battalion, the scale of the turtle array was much smaller. Behind these three battalions are the fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh battalions. The remaining eight, ninth and tenth battalions are in the third line of the legion.

This time the Romans dispatched three legions. The whole army did not have parallel groups of the regiments as in the past. The whole formation was like a huge “good” character. The sixth legion of Hells, the left wing was called ” The Roman Legion of the “Royal Legion”, the right wing of the three legions of the Roman Twelfth Army, known as the “Crowd of the Throwers”, can only accommodate four or five horses and ride.

More and more Parthian light cavalry emerged from all directions, and they did not see any formation. These arched cavalry have only light leather armor, and a long knife with a recurve bow of the famous Patia at the waist – this bow gradually slows from the back of the bow to the ends, and finally the bow A bowstring is attached to the bend, the ends are fixed with horns, and the central grip is concave, and the entire bow is shaped like the silhouette of the bimodal camel’s back. This kind of bow is extremely strong, with a range of up to 300 meters. The bow made by the straight wooden stick in the Roman armor of the scales within a distance of 50 meters is far behind in range and penetration.

The flying arrow rain fell on Hers’s shield. The ears of the soldiers were all the sound of the “beep, squeak” of the air and the “beep, squeak” of the shield. The Parthians carefully kept the distance between the Romans and the Romans at a distance of about 50 meters. They quickly put arrows and did not aim at them. They just tried to shoot the arrows with the greatest force.

“Fortunately, I changed my shield!”

Hers’s gratitude to the new commander is hard to describe in words. The wooden shields of the past couldn’t stop the sharp arrow that the Parthian combination bow shot at such a close range. In more than one battle in the past, there was a case where the Parthian arrow penetrated the shield and nailed the hand of the Roman soldier to the shield. That being said, they are still in a beating situation and there is no chance to fight back. Soon, Hers grateful mood was replaced by resentful emotions:

“Damn, when is this going to happen? I thought that by blocking the shields of the Parthians with some shields, we can win the battle? It’s a brother who hasn’t beaten!” Hells cursed in his heart.

“Hey, hey,” a new huge sound that has not appeared on the battlefield overwhelmed the harsh sound of the arrow rain. Hers hiding behind the shield can’t see what happened, only heard and then came. A burst of human screams and horses humming, and soon the dense arrow rain that fell on the shield began to become sparse. As the sound of “呜, 呜” continues to sound, for a while, it is no longer advantageous for the arrow to fly toward them.

“The first battalion recovery queue! Each hundred teams relax the distance between each other.”

Hearing the command of Yakurius, Hells finally breathed a sigh of relief and stood up straight. He took a look at the already numb arms and knees and looked forward. The sight in front of him made him and his companions shocked:

A few stone bullets that are bigger than the coconut are still screaming from their heads, and there are all the bodies of the Parthians in front of them. Some people are shattered by stone bullets and the brains of white flowers. Mixed with red blood looks like a big bowl full of flesh and blood; some people only have the lower half of the body there to squirm, and the waist does not know where to fly; there are people embedded in the chest by stone bombs Before, I could only breathe a little bit harder; in the distance, a few camels loaded with bows and arrows were hit and they were screaming with tenacious vitality. . . . . . The light cavalry of Partia was overwhelmed by this sudden blow, and they avoided the Cairo horses and regrouped in the distance.

Hers and his comrades sent a deafening cheer. The loss of the first battalion was very small. Only a few soldiers were injured by the bows that came through the shield gap. In their cheers, the four battalions in the second column quickly passed through the gap between them to form a new first column, allowing the three battalions to restore their strength and care for the wounded.
