Vol 8 Chapter 82: Dionys VS Carthage (6)


Because at the time of the construction of the camp, Leo Tizides asked the Allied military camps to be built in accordance with the style of the military camp of Dionia, which added a lot of difficulties to the attack of the Carthaginian army, especially Numibi. The Asian troops, when they attacked the city of Minoa, they suffered a lot of losses. Many people were killed and injured. Their morale was not high and their actions were very cautious. Therefore, despite the large number of people, the pressure on the southern military camp was not great. .
But for the northern military camp, the situation is not optimistic. Its hills are small and the mountains are short, so its military camp is small and easier to attack. The 2,000-strong soldier that Carthage was responsible for attacking the Northern Battalion was mainly composed of Carthage civilians, and a small part was from the Phoenician ambassadors adjacent to Carthage, such as Utica. Compared with the Numisians, this army has a much higher operational enthusiasm, and the equipment is also very good, most of them are heavy infantry.
At this time, the main force of defense in the northern military camp, the Agrigento people, was mostly out of the camp. There was not enough force to send out the camp to attack the Carthaginians who were trying to dismantle the traps. They could only be sent to the hills before. The Diaonian light infantry, who was preparing to attack the sacred army, retreated to the battalion to fight, but the javelins and arrows they threw were simply not enough to cover the Carthage army surrounded by the camp.
Seeing that the Carthaginian army was approaching the ditch, a few thousand West Kyle fighters suddenly rushed out of the mountains in the north, investing a large number of javelins at the Carthage guards, even though the Carthaginians The appearance of the Sikels had been expected, and some precautions were made, but they did not expect that there would be so many West Kelmen who came to the harassment and were caught unprepared...
"What do you say?! There are four or five thousand West Kyle people in the north?!" Monte Adeno was shocked.
"Yes, adults. These attacks by the Sikels have caused a lot of death and injury to the army of Rekoka, and they are unable to attack the Diorian military camps," said the detective.
"Damn barbarian!" Monte Adeno snorted and thought about it. He turned to the adjutant and said, "Notify the Lumibian cavalry who are idle and rushed to the north and start to the West Kel. Attack, drive them back to the mountains, so that Rekoka can fully attack the enemy camp! And... you go to the south and pick up 6,000 Lumibians!"
The adjutant was ordered to go.
Soon, 3,000 Numisbian cavalry picked up a large dust mist and galloped north.
Monte Adeno did not care about this, his brows were frowning, his eyes fixed on the front. Although the detective rider could not go deep into the battlefield to explore and could not understand the real situation, the battle should be quite fierce, judging from the shouting and screaming sounds that never stop. Up to now, it has lasted for more than half an hour, and the sacred army is still not allowed to enter, which makes Monte Adeno very uneasy.
He hates to put the Numidia troops on top and replace the Holy Legion, but this is impossible, so he can only transfer the Numisians to increase the array of the sacred troops and give them more Power support.
.......................................
As the small squares of the detachments of the Eighth Army of the Republic of Denia gradually approached each other, the speed of their squadrons in the squadrons was faster and faster, because the sacred soldiers faced enemies in all directions...
The array of the Eighth Army was finally slowly closed, and the killing sounds in the array gradually disappeared. Even the screams became silent because of the trampling of the sacred soldiers who had fallen to the ground after numerous tramples.
Although the four teams under Diocassius finally synthesized a whole, he did not feel relaxed, because each team lost some soldiers, especially the top two teams had the most serious casualties, and When the soldiers who fell in such a tragic close combat cleared the battlefield after the war, it was not a serious injury or death. Few people could recover. How could his mood be happy, but now it is not a sad thing, there are enemies ahead. fighting.
At the beginning of the battle, the attack of the former Carthaginians was somewhat messy because of the lack of effective command, and now it is even more chaotic, because many of the sacred soldiers who have been squeezed out do not want to fight again. I just want to escape. Although they were very heroic in the battle, they were to survive. As a child of the Carthage, who was a child from a small jade food, although he had undergone rigorous training and had a strong body, I have never experienced such a fierce battle. I saw that my comrades around me were injured and fell to the ground, and then trampled into meat. This kind of horror scared them so that they only wanted to escape from this place like hell. Therefore, they also shoved and even clashed with the sacred soldiers who blocked them.
"Brothers, offense! Offense! Kill the Carthaginians completely!" Diocassius shouted loudly, encouraging the soldiers to continue fighting.
The shouts of the team officers sounded one after another in the array, and Leo Tiddides, who has been closely watching the battle on the mountainside, will not let this good opportunity.
"Hey!..." Gao Jun’s military number rang across the battlefield.
The soldiers of the reserve team heard the sound of the number and immediately strode forward. The entire rear array was attached to the array of the Eighth Legion in front. The two became one, and the forward, powerful propulsion power gathered by the tens of thousands of people. It was not at all that the number of people who had lost nearly half of the number and the chaotic and confusing group could resist. They retreated and eventually collapsed...
When Millefio, who was in the back of the sect of the sect of the sect, was blocked by the Dionysian army, he also rode horses hard and went back and forth, finding his familiar team officers from the chaotic soldiers, encouraging They reorganized the soldiers. After his long efforts, it seemed that the sacred army in the battle had some order, but suddenly it became more chaotic and then quickly retreated.
Millefio was stunned by the squadron and fled. After being hit, the brain was blank in his escape. He never thought about it: how could such an elite squad army lose inexplicably?
After nearly a hour of fighting, the soldiers of the Dionysian army continued to chase after the fatigue, and did not give any respite to the routing of the Carthage Corps army.
Leo Tiddides also sent the Fourth Cavalry Corps and the Light Armor Brigade. These two operations were quick and have been replenishing the troops from the channels reserved on both sides of the Dionysian Army. Going out, he quickly ran to the front of the heavy infantry and carried out a fierce and continuous pursuit of the squad.
The 6,000 Numisbian troops that had been transferred, just entered the lowland, were surprised to see that the Carthaginians who usually wore the green arms and the green armor were throwing the beautiful shields at the moment, and the good-looking helmets were thrown away. They panicked and shouted at them: "Help! Help! The Daonians are killed! Fast! Go and block them! Go!"
Thousands of people are like the mourning dogs, and they are rushing toward them. The Numigians, who are not high morale, have made a concerted action—turning around, running away...
The tens of thousands of squadrons rushed out of the lowlands, and the momentum was scary.
When Monte Adno saw such a scene, he suddenly stayed.
The adjutant also advised on the side: "Adults, we... lost, first returned to the camp -"
If you haven't finished speaking, you can see Monte Adeno turning the horse's head and using his legs to force the horse.
The horse screamed and carried him over the Pletani River...
Although the Numisians were running away, they were not too flustered because there were still members of the regiment running behind them, but when some of the cavalry of the Fourth Cavalry Corps rushed into their rear from the slant, they panicked quickly. Spread throughout the entire team, forcing the Numisians to rush to escape.
The shallow and narrow Platani River turned out to be the biggest obstacle to their escape. Some people were slipped by the mud at the bottom of the river because of panic. They panicked in the river and pulled more people down. This in turn blocked the escape of the sacred soldiers in the back, they shouted in anger, and the squadrons huddled in the river...
Then the chasing of the Dionysian cavalry and the infantry smashed with spears and lancets, screams and screams, and the river floated on the river, and the blood stained the Pletani River.
The squadrons fled the river and fled to the battalion. The Dionian soldiers chased after them. Because of the previous battles, Monte Adeno almost took all the troops in the battalion, and there was no defensive power in the battalion. How can the squadron stay in the camp for a long time and continue to flee westward.
The sudden collapse of the Holy Legion was beyond the expectation of two Carthage troops on both sides of the coalition camp. EbookFREE.me~ After receiving news from the South Army, the Namibian army immediately turned and ran down the mountain and began to escape. The Numisbian cavalry in the north learned of the news of the rout in the middle road, immediately stopped fighting with the West Kel, and fled to the west to escape. As a result, they fled to the front.
Instead, the commander of the Carthaginian cadre, Rekoka, learned the news of the rout in the middle road. When he was shocked, he immediately removed the troops that were attacking the military camp and reorganized the formation. He wanted to lead them from the side and attacked the pursuit. The Dionysian army tried to reverse the battle and save the runaways.
However, many Carthage soldiers saw the raging momentum of the chariots in front of the Dionysian army, and they all felt guilty. They all persuaded: "General, we will withdraw soon! The sacred regiments are defeated, and the Numidian cavalry also Escape, those Numisians are even less likely to stay and fight! If we can't escape, we may be surrounded by the Greeks!"
Reguka is still a little hesitant.
In the military camp on the mountain, there was a sound of the military squad, the one that was sent to the barracks by Leo Tizides, the Aegean heavy infantry brigade, and the Agrigento soldiers who had returned to the camp after the reorganization. The people, together, rushed out of the camp and smashed toward the Carthage army at the foot of the mountain, and the thousands of Western Kyle warriors rushed from the north to the Carthaginian army.
