Chapter 803: "·Bridge Battle·Mid"

There are no traces of wings in the sky, and I have flown.
Rabin Deran Tagore (Indian poet, philosopher and Indian nationalist)
The four Macedonian Lancers and the eight Spartan heavy infantry under Lukurus, as well as the three Cretan archers under Wink, formed three advance troops to support the bridge; each advance The troops consisted of four captains and a team of archers.
The commanders of the three advance troops are the Centurion Agis of the Spartan heavy infantry, the Centurion Cretas of the Macedonian Royal Pikemen, and the Centurion Sasman of the Crete Archer, each Special forces have a centurion as commander.
Among the three of Aguis, Kretas, and Sussman, Sussman himself was the captain of the first Archer Wing under Wink; this time he was appointed as the commander of an advance force, not Wink and The meaning of Lucurus, but the direct command of Bai Feng.
Leading the army to fight independently is the only way for each system-armed centurion to be promoted to a system general; Sussman is the most prominent of the three Cretan archer centurions. Bai Feng intends to promote him Trained into a system general, he gave this opportunity to him.
In comparison, Spartan heavy infantry Centurion Akis and Macedonian Royal Lancer Centurion Cretas are undoubtedly more suitable candidates for the commander of Pisaman; Ritter Archer is destined to be only an auxiliary unit.
The Spartan heavy infantry with super combat effectiveness and the Macedonian Royal Pikemen second only to the Spartan heavy infantry are very typical phalanx arms. Their combat effectiveness can be fully exerted in defensive bridge operations. Fighting elsewhere is stronger!
The Cretan archers, which have better range and lethality than ordinary archers, no matter how good the fighting power is, they cannot bear the heavy task of fighting directly; therefore, the Spartan heavy infantry and the Macedonian Royal Pikemen are the absolute defensive bridges. The main force is elite.
Within five minutes, Luculus and Wink had assembled three advance troops; then, the three advance troops that constitute almost exactly the same, led by their respective commanders, went straight to the bridge fifty miles away. And go.
The mission of the Spartan heavy infantry Centurion Aggis was to lead the army to reinforce the third bridge closest to the army station; in addition to his own team of Spartan heavy infantry, he also had the Spartan heavy infantry , The Macedonian Royal Pikemen, and the Cretan archers.
Two teams of Spartan heavy infantry have 360 ​​soldiers, a team of Macedonian royal pikemen has 241 soldiers, a team of Cretan archers has 160 soldiers, and four teams of special arms The reinforcements have a total of 671 soldiers.
On the way to march at full speed, Aegis did not personally lead the Spartan heavy infantry under his command, but Zema walked with the other three centurions on the left side of the road; time was pressing, he must be in Before leading the army to the bridge, make arrangements for fighting.
"Omenis Centurion, as soon as our army reached the third bridge, you immediately led the army to replace the bridge guard and defended the southern end of the bridge with a ten-row lance array; no matter how violent the enemy’s attack was, your mission was to defend Bridge, no step back!"
"Nuo!" Omenis, also a centenary of Spartan heavy infantry, raised his red jersey behind him and responded loudly.
"Aloyus Centurion, your task is to block the exit of the bridge with a phalanx of 24 rows of long guns after the Omenis Centurion led the army to guard the bridge; without my order, even Omenis Centurion The whole army is annihilated, you can't easily step on the bridge!"
"No!" Aloyus, the Centurion of the Royal Macedonian Lancers, did not question Aguis' orders at all.
"Apius Centurion, the Cretan archers will be divided into two teams, which are deployed on the left and right sides of the south exit of the bridge; as long as the enemy cavalry steps on the bridge, you will start shooting at full strength, but try to avoid accidental injuries. , Arrow Rain should not be close to the friendly army within 30 meters."
"Nuo!" The Cretan archer acting as Centurion Appius, with a slightly raised eyes, confidently accepted the order.
The range of a normal archer is 80 meters to 100 meters, and the range of a Cretan archer is about 160 meters; if the firing method is used, the range of the Crete archer will be extremely scary One hundred and eighty meters, even two hundred meters!
This range is still far from the long archer under Bai Feng, but it is much stronger than the average archer; however, it is not the range of the Cretan archer that really makes Apius full of confidence. , But they can be called the accuracy of arrows.
Within the normal range of 160 meters, the volley of 160 Cretan archers can be controlled within an error of no more than three meters; Aguiz’s order is that the arrow rain should not be close to the friendly army 30 meters This is a pediatrics for the Cretan archers.
During the journey to the third bridge, Agis also discussed the tactical arrangements for defensive bridges with the three centurions of Omenis, Aloyus, and Appius; for example, Spartan heavy infantry Round-robin battle with Macedonian Royal Pikemen, etc.
After nearly an hour of marching at full speed, the two enduring Spartan heavy infantry rushed to the third bridge; followed by the Macedonian Royal Pikemen and Cretan archers, it took another 20 minutes. Time to reach the destination.
On the speed and endurance of the march, the Spartan heavy infantry, which is so strong that it is abhorrent, has completely abused the Royal Macedonian pikemen and the Cretan archers; in order to avoid any accidents on the third bridge, Agis had to take part in the division Hurry up and reinforce the third bridge.
After Agis led two teams of Spartan heavy infantry to the third bridge, the trail of the enemy cavalry appeared on the north bank of the third bridge; this group of enemy cavalry appeared from the first bridge. The galloping cavalry of Zhengbaiqi.
The Zhengbaiqi cavalry who attacked the third bridge first attacked the second bridge and failed, then went to the first bridge again and found that there were also 1,500 defenders stationed there; so they came to the third bridge Bridge here, I want to try my luck.
Facts have proved that their luck is not too good or too bad; the advance troops who arrived at the third bridge had already rushed to take over the southern defense line of the bridge before they arrived, but the advance troops arrived only had two teams of Spars Reaching heavy infantry, the other two team soldiers have not arrived yet.
The 1,500 guards on the third bridge handed over the bridge to the two Spartan heavy infantry panting, and then returned to the barracks 800 meters behind at the command of Aegis; Therefore, at the southern end of the bridge, only two teams of Spartan heavy infantry.
The Zhengbaiqi cavalry who did not find a suitable point of attack around, it is rare to see that the third bridge had fewer than 400 defenders; when the excited scout reported this situation to Xiangqile, Xiangqi Leng Sendang laughed even if it was difficult to suppress.
Hallar, who was not far from Xiangqiler, found Xiangqiler's abnormal excitement, and hurried up to ask: "Hanqiqiler, what makes you so happy. No defenders on the bridge?"
"Haha, brother Harla, there are not defenders on the bridge ahead, but fewer than four hundred defenders! How about, are you interested in catching up with Tumen and Huang Gutai just like my brother? Take the bridge in one fell swoop?"
"Haha, brother Hengqiler, since there are less than four hundred defenders in front of the bridge, what are we waiting for?"
