Chapter 864: "·The **** battle continues"

If a person does not think he is important, he can live very happily.
Krishnamurti (the most outstanding spiritual teacher in the twentieth century)
Ten minutes before the start of the war, he can kill seven pikemen with red flag cavalry with a spear in his hand. Throughout the entire first wing, there will be no more than five people; including the captain of the army, Gabbitus. And his invincible general guard.
As a self-growing system general, Gabitus is surrounded by a team of Roman heavy cavalry composed of 24 low-level senior swordsmen. When necessary, these 24 generals Roman heavy cavalry can also be dismounted.
At this moment, the twenty-four Roman heavy cavalry who existed because of Gabitus held their lances and guarded around Gabitus; protecting Gabitus and killing the enemy cavalry against them In terms of, it is undoubtedly that the former is much more important than the latter.
The cavalry is much shorter than the super long gun, and the main energy of the Roman heavy cavalry is focused on Gabitus; therefore, the record of the general guard cavalry is not dazzling, but it is Gabi who is on the front line. Tus, the number of his kills is simply terrifying!
The armor worn by Gabbitus is no longer the Spartan heavy infantry centurion's red robe, but the typical armor of the Tianlong Empire Corps; how about the red flag cavalry who have fought the Tianlong army several times. Can't identify the captain of Gabitos?
The importance of catching thieves to capture the king first, even the nomadic people who are relatively backward in civilization, understand it; after realizing Gabitus’ identity, the excited red flag cavalrymen spearheaded their offensive, Aimed at where Gabitus was.
This is why Claire can kill seven enemy cavalry in just ten minutes; the enemy cavalry is too densely charged, so Claire can easily harvest the enemy no matter whether he is defending desperately or struggling to pierce a spear. Life as your record.
When Claire, who had mediocre strength, killed the seventh enemy cavalry, Gabitus, who had been under attack, had already killed a total of thirty enemy cavalry; it must be said that the Spartan soldiers were brave and brave The war will not be changed by any external factors.
Even if Gabitus's identity is no longer the centurion of the Spartan heavy infantry, but the commander of the lance army that commanded 20,000 troops, he will still come to the forefront of battle after the deployment of the army. , Using his long spear to fight with the enemy.
The nature of the overly belligerent Spartan warrior in Gabritus is, to a certain extent, not conducive to his overall command and control of the Lance Corps; but from another perspective, a brave and powerful general will always be able to Let the soldiers under your command get more and more courageous, right?
There was Gabitus's personal sitting, and the first line of rifle defense consisting of two thousand lancers of the First Wing fully resisted the enemy cavalry's charge for more than half an hour before reaching the extreme of more than two-thirds of the fallen soldiers. Under the circumstances, slowly withdraw to the second line of defense.
The two heavy infantry brigades covering the wings of the first line of defensive rifle were not injured by the enemy cavalry, so the casualties were okay; however, as the middle line moved backwards, they also responded accordingly. Then retreat.
The red flag cavalry with similar casualties found that after the first line of the Lance Corps began to retreat slowly, their offensive became more fierce, and it seemed that they wanted to take advantage of the retreat of the first wing A wing phalanx of a wing.
Regardless of whether it is a war in the cold weapon era or a war in the hot weapon era, retreating is always more difficult than attacking; an elite teacher who has the ability to attack and win the battle, when retreating, often because of the panic when retreating, Caused a major defeat of the whole army.
The relatively elite First Wing, which formed a relatively short time in the Long Spear Corps, almost scored a good one-to-one record in the half an hour when it was against the red flag cavalry charge in front; if they added the crossbow troops behind them They have been called elite.
It is a pity that when Gabittus just issued the order to withdraw from the defense line, the rocky defense line that was originally rocked was suddenly confused during the retreat process; even, some of them struggled with the enemy a second ago. Soldier, turn around and run in the next second.
In the first half hour of fighting, Gabitus made a misjudgment on his men and women; he prematurely thought that his men and women were already elite, but the result was that they were pursued by enemy forces on the way back. The cavalry caught off guard.
Of the more than 700 retreating first wing captains, at least half did not escape the pursuit of the enemy cavalry, and the other half was reloaded from the second rifle line and the wings only when the second wing responded in time. The infantry gap was pulled back to rest.
Lucky Claire, fortunately withdrew to the back this time, but his chest was filled with an enemy arrow; unfortunately, his seventh squadron, which was full of 100 pikemen, Only twelve spearmen with wounds are still alive.
Although the First Wing had luckily withdrew more than three hundred pikemen, the fact that the First Wing, which suffered a heavy blow halfway, had completely lost its fighting power was also a reality that Gabitos had to admit; in this way, Gabitos’ command , You have to make appropriate adjustments.
Originally, Gapitus intended to use the method of resistance, and on the premise of giving full play to the advantages of his own army, step by step to consume the enemy's vital strength; but the first defeat at the time of the retreat made Gapitus clear Recognizing that his soldiers obviously will not retreat.
To use a soldier who will not retreat to fight a battle of attrition and retreat, it is undoubtedly to find a way to die; Gabritus, who is very clear-minded, knows that his next battle must concentrate his strength in a hard way. Fight with the enemy cavalry to the end!
The second line of defensive lines with undisturbed formation quickly ushered in a large enemy cavalry charge; fortunately, there was a desperate battle before the first line of defensive lines. The second line of defense against the enemy, the enemy cavalry's charge Without the initial ferocity and violent.
Gabitus, who was still fighting at the forefront of the battle, once again took half an hour to increase his number of enemy kills to the appalling 75 cavalry; while the second line of defense with a full 2,000 spearmen, but A thousand spearmen were killed for this.
When the time was up, the third spear wing, 100 meters away from the second line of defense, maintained its posture of the phalanx of its own spear, slowly advancing behind the second spear wing; Bitutus, then ordered the soldiers of the Second Lance Wing to retreat.
They were replaced by a third spearman wing behind them, and more than 900 spearmen of the second spearman wing were very smoothly withdrawn from the gap between the two wings of the defense line to the back; half an hour of fighting has already made them fine Exhausted and unsustainable.
After nearly 80 minutes of fighting, two of the most elite lance groups under Gabittus killed 2,700 pikemen, and another 1,300 pikemen were wounded; all four of them The Infantry Wing was killed in battle with 1,900 heavy infantry.
The cost of the death of 4,600 soldiers and the injury of 2,700 soldiers of the Lance Corps were exchanged for the death of 5,000 cavalry soldiers with red flags and the injury of one thousand cavalry soldiers; Injured longbowmen and crossbowmen troops.
