Vol 8 Chapter 255: Gera will fight (end)

The four detachments of the company's captain Diocassis became a stack of about 26 or 7 meters in the right-wing array. At the center, he has been closely watching the battles of the front-ranking soldiers.
Compared with the battle in Minoa, the degree of danger is far less than that. The enemy on the opposite side does not look tall, nor strong, the attack is not fierce, and the impact on the array is not very strong. The pressure is not too big... But after a long period of observation by Diocassis, he knew that the soldiers under his hand had met the enemy.
Because the enemies on the opposite side have strong defenses, they are very good at defending with shields and cooperate well with each other. Secondly, they are very experienced in dealing with the soldiers’ short-sword attacks, which makes the Devonian infantry The proud short-sword short-swords are not effective. Again, they have rich combat experience and good offensive rhythm. They don’t easily wave their stab guns, but concentrate on using long shields to defend the soldiers. The brave attack, with appropriate retreat to cushion the impact of its impact, and when its strength is slow, immediately with a spear to fight back, the other side forced back, and even stabbed ... So, Diocassis The commanding company is always in a state of three steps and two steps, and the progress is slow.
Of course, he wouldn’t know that the Magonid family recruited Phoenician and Nuomi’s emigrants because they had low employment costs, were able to work hard, and were not affiliated with any city or tribe. . After the rigorous training, the Shunnu infantry has indeed become the main force of the Magoniide family to fight against the Iberian Peninsula. For more than a decade, the enemies they face are fierce indigenous people, and the soldiers who are not superior in strength and speed. Rely on tough defense and tacit cooperation, dragging the enemy in a lasting confrontation, or sticking the enemy's main force, and then letting the quick Numidian cavalry or Mauritanian cavalry wrap around the enemy to attack, and finally defeat the enemy in one fell swoop. This has become a common tactic for the generals of Macquarie, Hasdruba and other generals to deal with Iberian aborigines. Since the Iberian natives mostly use the Fakata short sword, the experience of the Firu infantry in dealing with the dagger attack is naturally rich.
As a senior team officer of the Legion, Diocasis was anxious. Before the war, Leo Tiddides had already briefed them on their own operational intentions. The Eighth Army was the victory of the Dionyrian coalition in this battle. The key, however, Diocassis looked at the soldiers who were struggling in front of him. He guessed that the other company's situation would be the same. The Eighth Army not only failed to open the door of victory since the war, but fell into a battle. Among them, I am afraid I can't see the dawn of victory in a short time...
Just as Diocassis’s imagination came together, there was a familiar shouting behind him:
The Warriors of the Eighth Army, I am your army leader! I command you to strengthen your offensive and defeat the enemies in front of you. Win honors and rewards for yourself! The Warriors of the Eighth Army..."
This is indeed the voice of the leader of the Prosous! Diocassis was surprised at first, then uneasy. In his impression, Prosuos had a colder character and lack of passion. He never spurred the soldiers in training or in the past. The situation, and this time suddenly changed to the usual, is the entire situation against us?
Some team officers who are as sensitive as Diocassis have the same uneasiness, but most of the ordinary soldiers of the Eighth Army are hearing this with them for 10 years, demanding them harshly, but giving them The voice of the head of the army that brought victory and glory, all the mood is stirring, the morale is high again, and his shouting is in exchange for a piece of screaming like a tide: "Hadis!! Hades!! Fight!! Fight !!!..."
..........................................
At the back of the left wing of Carthage, the soldiers of the Eighth Legion were rushing from the sides to the Balearic Stonemen.
Although the Balearic casters had been attacking each other with the Diaonian light infantry, they had been vigilant against the Venetian cavalry, so they found that the enemy was moving towards them and immediately ignored the positive light infantry. Fight against the cavalry. At this time, there were more than 1,000 casters, and they were divided into two parts. The intensive lead shots flew toward the cavalry of the assault, in an attempt to shoot them down.
For a time, the horseman called, and there were constant cavalry tumbling down.
However, since the Fourth Cavalry Corps has launched an assault, it is impossible to stop, otherwise it will bring more losses. They roar, driving the horses, passing by the comrades who are screaming on the ground, killing not far away. The enemy is always inciting the stone.
Under the courage of the Fourth Cavalry Corps, the AIA cavalry also followed.
Looking at the enemy ride from the dusty sky, killing himself with a compelling momentum, the distance is getting closer and closer, the Balearic casters finally felt panic, and they began to run backwards.
The Dionysian cavalry rushed to the front, smashed with a gun and smashed with a horse, completely letting the stonemen break down, and then deliberately drove them to the front of the Carthage Army.
Hundreds of squadrons were forced to hit the rear of the left wing of Carthage in battle. The rear infantry had to turn around and kill the squadrons to avoid disrupting the battlefield. The javelin thrown by the Dionysian cavalry inevitably distracted them from the forces of the Eighth Legionnaires.
At this time, the Eighth Army soldiers, inspired by Leo Tizides, are doing their best to launch a new offensive.
Originally, the Nunu infantry was not afraid of this. Instead, it would sneak in the heart, because the enemy had to spare the premature effort, and it was their turn to counterattack. But now, they are somewhat unable to withstand and have to retreat.
..........................................
On the right wing of the Carthaginian army, it was the party of the Dionyrian coalition.
The number of soldiers in the Carthaginian army was more than that of the Dionyrian coalition, and the same length of the military array as the other side, which means that the array of the Carthaginian army on the right wing even exceeded the other side. The soldiers of the Dionyrian coalition were weaker than the Lusitania fighters in their individual combat power, and they were not as good as the other in terms of overall strength. Therefore, after more than an hour of fierce fighting, the advantage of the Lusitania warriors during the war. It has become very obvious.
Although the attack of the Lusitania fighters has weakened a lot compared to the beginning, the resistance and counterattacks of the Kamalina and Gera soldiers have become more pronounced. The screams of comrades from time to time have increased the panic in their hearts. Therefore, the left-wing array of Dionya continued to retreat under the offensive pressure of the Lusitania, and the dense formation in the retreat became more and more sparse.
The Lusitania warriors took the opportunity to squeeze into these gaps, attacking the enemy from the side, constantly expanding the gap, and burning the flames to the rear of the Kamanina and Gera arrays.
Finally, the fear overwhelmed the fighting spirit. Some of the Kamanina soldiers at the back of the military array began to turn and fled. Their escape immediately affected the same unstable teammates around them. Everyone followed suit, and the collapse was inevitable...
..........................................
The left wing began to collapse? ! Although Leonidids had already prepared himself, he still had some disappointment after hearing the news.
After a moment, he lifted his spirit and looked ahead. In order to better understand the situation of the war, at this time he is already close to the back of the Eighth Army Array, riding on the horse, and can even see the faces of the enemies killed by the soldiers: although due to his supervision and the number he sent The attack of the four cavalry regiments in the side rear, the enemy has been retreating in a big step, but they did not show excessive panic on their faces, and the thin ranks of the Eighth Legion could not seize this opportunity and increase the forward direction. Pushing the amount of pressure and implementing a more effective breakthrough... So from the current combat situation, the right wing will continue for a while, and now the eighth army is lacking time.
After spending more than 20 years in Sparta, he is very clear: the traditional Greek heavy infantry on the left wing will have a long time after the entire left wing is completely broken, and then it will not be too long. Spread to the middle road...
Leo Tizides took the initiative and decided: "Command the whole army... retreat!"
Although Leo Tizides is still woodless, the volume of his speech still reveals his mood changes.
Mukruk on the side was also in a complicated mood. When he repeated the order again, even the voice was a little trembling: "Fast... Blowing... The retreating army!"
Since the resignation of Dionya is different from the sound of the Greek city-state army, the divisions need to blow twice.
When the sound of the Greek army's attack sounded, the soldiers of the Eighth Army were somewhat unbelievable, because the enemy on the opposite side has not yet retreated. At this time, the sound of this sound means: ... We lost? !
Despite the unacceptable, the habit of strictly observing military discipline for many years allowed them to choose to obey. After a sudden insemination forced the enemy back, the soldiers quickly turned and retreated...
"Commanded the soldiers to speed up the retreat, entering the city from the north gate and the east gate of Gera!" Leo Tizides then ordered that he did not faint because of the failure, and he was very clear: once the coalition was fully defeated, panic Most of the soldiers instinctively flocked to the nearest gate of the gate of the city of Gera, which would inevitably cause congestion and easily become the target of the enemy being pursued by the pursued enemy. Although the North Gate is farther away, it will allow the soldiers to enter the city faster because of the smooth roads. And because of the array, most of the soldiers of the Eighth Army were on the right wing, and they were closer to the North Gate than the positions of the Middle and Left.
