Chapter 367: "·War Potential"


You know a lot, but if you don’t use your knowledge for your needs, it’s useless.
Franzisco Petrarch (the first humanist of the Renaissance, known as "the father of the Renaissance")
When Bai Feng led his army to land on the Witt tribe beach, the coalition forces led by Aiges had already completed the annihilation of the Witt tribe army in the border area, and began to advance toward the hinterland of the Witt tribe Hedong area.
The frontal offensive army led by Basil had just defeated the second army of the Witt tribe. The army of the Witt tribe was a huge army of 40,000 infantry and 40,000 cavalry.
The armies of the Witt tribe in the Hedong region were all broken down one by one by the army of Aegis at the beginning of the war, which was a smooth chance by chance. The Hexi army, which had been prepared for a long time, was not so easily eliminated.
After defeating the main army of Basil, the Wit tribe army that defeated the lion army quickly withdrew to the rear and merged with other Wit tribe troops; after several days of rectification and assembly, this was the second An active counterattack of the Wit tribe army.
The secret mission of reinventing the Lion Army was completed by Basil in such a vicious way. Since Upton, who is the head of the Lion Army, could not be pursued after the battle, there is no need for Bazel to follow the original rules. The plan hides strength.
The elite Bazer army, but the two elite Macedonian phalanx corps and a specially trained field corps in the city of Rome are assembled; the total strength of these three corps is not much, only 35,000 soldiers, But the actual combat effectiveness is extremely powerful.
The brave and warlike Bazer himself is a wise and courageous general. His commanding style is extremely sharp offensive and flexible defense. In the face of the large-scale enemy forces that swept over again, he chose the most direct and hard-to-final battle. .
The two slow-moving Macedonian phalanxes are the frontal defense force, and the more flexible Tigers are the mobile force; this is the battlefield deployment used by Bazel to meet the 80,000 enemy forces. It is simple and straightforward. It works.
The Wit tribe army, who had no knowledge of the Macedonian phalanx, used more than 20,000 barbarian light cavalry to charge the defensive formation of the Bazer army at the beginning of the war; .
Almost exactly the same tactics, an army of the Viter tribe in the Hedong area, using cavalry to chase infantry, hit the Assam's legion; and the main force of the Viter tribe in the Hexi area, but nearly buried 20,000 Cavalry unit.
The solid phalanx composed of densely packed lances is not a battlefield that the barbarian light cavalry can break through; in particular, a large number of long archers and elite infantry are distributed on the left and right wings of the phalanx. The existence of these auxiliary soldiers has become a The nightmare of the enemy cavalry!
The Witt tribe cavalry unit, who wanted to break through the frontal square of the Bazer army, was attacked by the longbowmen's arrows and then attacked by elite infantry surrounded by wings.
The front can’t break through the square of the Roman army’s pikemen, and the left and right wings are surrounded by the Roman army’s infantry, plus the continuous arrow rain cover of the Roman army’s long archers; just a forty-minute warm-up battle, the Viter tribe’s 20,000 army The whole army was wiped out.
The failure of the cavalry charge made the subsequent enemy infantry who rushed up have to face the Roman army; the tacit phalanx, the long archer, and the elite infantry's tacit cooperation cooperated to block all the enemy troops who wanted to rush up. Outside.
Taking advantage of such a favorable opportunity, Bazel, who is good at grasping fighters, promptly divided his Tigers into two, and at the same time detoured from the left and right wings of his own army to the enemy's offensive troops.
When the army of the Viter tribes, who had been fighting hard for a long time, was ready to retreat, the outspoken Tigers bite the enemy troops who wanted to retreat from both wings. Now!
The non-moving Macedonian phalanx soldiers held their super-long guns in their hands at a slow speed and advanced forward little by little; like a heavy bulldozer, the Macedonian phalanx irresistibly grinded towards the advancing enemy Roll over.
When the battle reached here, the defeated Witt tribe was actually not necessary to fight down; Bazel, who had won the victory, did not want to kill him, so a new round of persuasion began.
In the end, less than 30,000 of the 80,000 troops regrouped by the Witt tribe successfully evacuated the battlefield, while the other 50,000 soldiers remained on the battlefield forever; of course, more than 20,000 of them were The Bazer army was captured.
Two consecutive victorious battles allowed Bazel to capture nearly 50,000 warrior tribesmen; so many captives greatly slowed the advancement of the Bazer army and even became Baze The potential instability of the Uyghur army.
In order to place these captives, the anxious Bazil had to take ten days out of the already tense time to send the captives to the barracks of the Roman army and be guarded by the lion army that was repairing in the barracks. .
Baser wasted his best offensive time in vain and missed the opportunity to drive straight into the hinterland of the Hexi region of the Witt tribe; when he reorganized the army and moved forward again, the Witt tribe that had reacted had already recruited troops on a large scale. .
In just ten days in a blink of an eye, the Viter tribe recruited more than 200,000 soldiers from the more than 1.1 million people in the Hexi region; plus the tens of thousands of troops previously evacuated from the battlefield, the Viter tribe can invest The strength of the war reached an astonishing 250,000!
Not only that, from the day of the second defeat, the number of newly recruited troops of the Viter tribe has been increasing; in other words, the available army of the Viter tribe is 250,000 today, and there may be more tomorrow 260,000.
The Viter tribe, whose war potential has been fully inspired, is using their demographic advantages to fight a real full-scale war with the attacking Bazer army; this is the savage barbarians, and all the soldiers are never more than an adjective. .
In addition, the soldiers of the Bazer army are not undead fighters, they will also pay a considerable amount of casualties in the battle; in the previous two battles, the soldiers of the three corps under the Bazer, from the original 35 thousand Thousands have dropped to 28,000 now.
The 28,000 Roman army, against the barbarian warriors of the 250,000 Witt tribe; the difference in the number of nearly ten times the difference is enough to offset the qualitative advantage of the Roman army. The scale of victory has been tilted towards the Witt tribe.
Just before the third battle between the Bazer army and the Witt tribe, Bai Feng's landing army finally landed on the coast of the Witt tribe; the night of the whole army's landing, a battlefield ghost sent Bai Feng Reports in Hedong and Hexi.
