Roman Empire of Total War

True love can inspire people, awakening the power and hidden talent in his deep sleep.

- Giovanni Boccaccio (outstanding representative of the Italian Renaissance, humanist)

The 100,000-strong army under Francis, after more than half a month of fighting with Nabazzani and Assam’s army, the already weak weak barbarian fighters have made great progress. They have not been half a month ago. New recruits.

But true elite can't be cultivated in half a month. The most elite troops Francis possessed were the 10,000 elite cavalry and 25,000 elite infantry; the two eleven thousand elite infantry included The soldiers who had just withdrawn.

These 35,000 elite divisions are the decisive trump card power of Francis. The other 60,000 generals have only average fighting ability. They are certainly not opponents of the Roman army in the frontal battle.

The military's quality disadvantage is a problem that Francis can't avoid. Even if he left the mountain road at night, it was difficult to fundamentally solve the immediate crisis. After thinking about it, Francis still decided to use the geographical position to fight a battle of life and death with the city of Rome!

If you want to limit the strength of the Roman army, you must prevent the Roman army from entering the battle from the beginning; in Francis’s view, his only chance to win is to eliminate them with the elite troops under him. Army of Rome.

How can you limit the Roman city’s army to fight, and force the Roman city to only invest a small amount of troops at a time to fight against its own superior army? This is not an easy thing; but for Francis, he really has Method!

The position of the Francis Army is west of the mountain road that attacked the Nabazzani and Assam camps. To the east is the defensive army of Nabazzani and Assam. To the west is a special terrain area where mountains and forests are staggered. .

In this special terrain area, there is a valley pass that is easy to defend and difficult to attack; the left and right sides of the Cadiz Valley are mountain walls about 100 meters high, and only 5,000 troops can be accommodated in the middle. At the same time crossing the channel.

The valley of Cadiz is the battlefield selected by Francis. He will use his elite 35,000 soldiers to guard the east exit of the valley of Cadiz to block the army of the offenders of the city of Rome in the valley of Cadiz. , So that his army has an absolute advantage.

The not-so-wide passages in the valley can only accommodate up to five thousand soldiers in the city of Rome, but Francis can guard the exit with seven times the elite of the enemy outside the valley; slowly destroy the army of Rome with a local advantage, this is Francis Decision.

After figuring out a way to deal with the Roman city army, Francis headed for 35,000 elite and 45,000 ordinary soldiers early the next morning, leaving the barracks to go to the exit of the Cadiz Valley for garrison, and the remaining 20,000 soldiers were left behind In the military camp.

Most of the 20,000 soldiers who stayed in the barracks were seriously wounded. Only about three thousand soldiers were good combatants. The reason why Francis kept them in the barracks was mainly to guard against Nabazzani and Assam. Army.

Although Francis did not think that the current Nabazzani and Assam could toss about anything else, but for the safety of the rear of the army, he still left two 20,000 soldiers stationed in the barracks to prevent Nabazzani and Assam's remnant army.

When Francis led his army to the valley of Cadiz, the Roman army of the White Peak was about half a day away from the valley of Cadiz; however, the Pattia archer responsible for reconnaissance had already arrived in the valley of Cadiz, and The army of Francis was discovered in time.

The Parthian cavalry found the vanguard cavalry under Francis, and both cavalry discovered each other's existence; therefore, a battle between reconnaissance cavalry broke out inevitably.

The Parthian bow cavalry who wanted to evacuate quickly was pursued by enemy patrol cavalry, and their most famous kite tactics once again played an important role; the three hundred patrol cavalry chased, less than ten minutes before and after, Paid more than a hundred casualties.

The patrol cavalry with more than half of the casualties decisively gave up and continued to pursue, and the Parthian bow cavalry was able to withdraw the army of the Roman city intact; after learning that the enemy's large cavalry appeared, Bai Feng immediately sent a battlefield ghost to conduct detailed reconnaissance .

The ghosts of the flexible battlefield did not appear in front of the army of Francis. They were all secretly observing the enemy in the forest outside the flat; at this time, just when the army of Francis arrived at the mouth of the valley, they observed Be more careful.

After more than ten minutes of observation, the ghosts of the battlefield understood the composition and situation of the Francis army, and then they quietly retreated from the sides of the valley and quickly returned to the army to report the situation to Baifeng.

With Bai Feng's mind, he naturally sees what Francis intends to do; before that, Bai Feng didn't even know that there was terrain like the Cadiz Valley ahead. Even if he knew it, he wouldn't accelerate the march to seize the Cadiz Valley in advance.

Francis thought that he had seized the Cadiz Valley, and he gained the initiative to fight, but he did not know that the Roman city army did not care about his seizure; or that his early deployment was only suitable for other barbarian tribes who were also barbarian troops. army.

The Roman city army composed of multiple arms not only has a large number of ordinary barbarian warriors as the backbone, but also a small and elite barbarian warrior as the assault force; more importantly, the Roman city army also has a pike phalanx And the presence of the longbowman.

The system armies of the Roman city are now too small and too few types to be able to play a decisive role; the only special arms that can play a role in changing the situation on the battlefield are the newly formed phalanx and long archers.

Based on the terrain of the Cadiz Valley and the deployment of Francis, Bai Feng only needs to make the Macedonian phalanx of the Cheetah Corps of Gattus as the offensive forward, followed by the long archer of the Pyrices; the two armies gradually advanced, Francis’s The containment plan is just a joke.

Because of the terrain limitations of the Cadiz Valley, Bai Feng quickly realized that his deployment was unreasonable; in the narrow valley, there was no room for the complete Cheetah Corps, let alone the long archer troops of Perez.

Taking into account the actual situation in the valley of Cadiz, Bai Feng immediately adjusted the attacking forces of the Cheetah Corps to three standard Macedonian phalanxes, plus the elite warrior brigades and long archers brigades belonging to the Cheetah Corps, with a total strength of 5,000.

In addition, the Royal Macedonian Lancers of the four brigades of the Tasia Corps were temporarily transferred to the attacking forces of the Cheetah Legion; these four Royal Macedonian Lancers and two Spartan heavy infantry acted as the most forward of the Phalanx troops. , Give the enemy a heavy blow!

After Bai Feng's battle order was issued, Gattus led the troops that were about to go out first, and Brono took his Tamron Corps for the post of Gattus; Bai Feng's main army, or the original Some speeds move forward.
