Liu Bang gave an order, and the Romans broke through again.
Spartacus and Luo Shixin were killed one after another, Ma Yuan was captured, and the Roman army lost its military responsibility, and its ability to attack the fortification was greatly reduced, so it could only break through with its military superiority.
If it weren't for the landslide of Futu Mountain blocking the road, the Romans would have been attacked by the Han army at this moment.
Although the Roman army was as many as more than 400,000, the Han army was even larger, and the front and rear attacks occupied the right time and place, and the Romans were bound to be annihilated in the end.
It is by no means an easy task to annihilate an army of up to 400,000 men, but so what With Liu Xiu's burial of 300,000 people in the Battle of Babylon, and the loss of 150,000 soldiers and horses in the two great battles of Athens and Ssalonica, the remaining 400,000 people are already the entire family of the Roman Empire.
Fortunately, Liu Xiu's miraculous performance saved the Romans, made the Roman soldiers forget Constantine, and made the devout Christians worship him as the embodiment of God.
Being able to control mountains and rivers with his mind is not what man does, and more than 400,000 Roman soldiers admired the five-body body to the ground, worshiped as a god.
"Soldiers, fight the enemy, God is with us" Liu Xiu was fully clothed, flying a white war horse under his crotch, holding his sword high, and loudly boosting morale.
Bi Zaiyu and Tyson led the charge, leading 50,000 spearmen to take the lead, carrying the Han army's iron cavalry head-on, while Deng Yu and Federer each led 30,000 cavalry to outflank from the left and right, preparing to counter-encircle the Han army.
Due to the blockage of the main army led by Yue Fei, the strategy of the Romans has changed from breaking through to completely annihilating the Han army stationed in Ljuble.
First, it can weaken the strength of the Han army, and second, it can boost morale, which will have an immeasurable impact on the trend of the war.
For a while, the sound of killing was loud, the gongs and drums were noisy, and the whimpering horns pierced the sky.
The fight began again, and soon it was in a stalemate.
As the Romans were prepared, and their strength far exceeded that of the Han army, as the battle continued, they slowly gained the upper hand, forcing the Han army to retreat step by step, and slowly approached the city of Ljuble.
Liu Xiu galloped back and forth among thousands of troops and horses, loudly encouraging the Roman army: "Good job of the soldiers, God is very satisfied with you, you are all heroes of the Romans, you can certainly become a hero admired by all people if you survive, and if you die in battle, you will go to heaven to enjoy happiness."
So do not be afraid of death, God is with you" Under the encouragement of Liu Xiu, the fighting spirit of the Roman army became more and more vigorous, and the Han army, which was killed by virtue of its huge military superiority, retreated step by step, and gradually fell behind, and the arrow towers and fortresses along the way were all captured, and the corpses were all over the slope, and there were corpses killed in battle and broken banners everywhere.
At the beginning of the battle, the Han army had the upper hand by shooting more than 30,000 Romans by virtue of the terrain and various fortifications.
However, when the Romans stirred up their morale and counterattacked without any worries, they killed and wounded more than 20,000 Han troops, and the losses on both sides were almost equal.
However, since Huo Quji's defenders were only 70,000 and the Romans who broke through were as many as 450,000, the difference in strength between the two sides was as high as six times.
After the casualties were paid by both sides, the gap widened to an eightfold scale, and the balance of victory gradually tilted in favor of the Romans.
"His grandmother's, we've been fighting with the Romans for a long time, why haven't the reinforcements arrived yet" Huang Feihu shook his pestle and slashed down a Roman cavalryman, complaining loudly with a dissatisfied face.
Huo Qujian listened from a distance, stabbed a Roman officer with a spear, and shouted: "I believe that Yue Shuai will soon come to reinforcements, and I will fight to the death to block the Romans, and those who retreat will not be forgiven."
"Fight hard, the husband will die if he dies, and it is the coward who retreats" Huang Feihu spat at the foam, and led the troops to counterattack the Romans, "The sons and daughters will follow me and rush again, and give the Romans a counter-charge" Huang Feihu galloped like a fly, and the cold light of the silver pestle flickered, like a stormy wave, leading a counter-charge of about 8,000 cavalry, and killed the 30,000 cavalry led by Deng Yu by surprise, and retreated three or four miles before stopping the decline.
Gao Changgong on the flank refused to show weakness, and also led his troops to counterattack the right wing cavalry led by Federer, but unfortunately he did not have Huang Feihu's force, and he attacked for a while without taking too much advantage, and the two sides were evenly matched, regardless of victory or defeat.
The woman was as attentive as a hair, and Joan of Arc, seeing that reinforcements were delayed, guessed that something might be wrong, so she sent scouts to spy east beyond the Romans.
The landslide of Futu Mountain blocked the road, and the main army led by Yue Fei could not come to the battle in a short time, so he couldn't help but be surprised, and hurriedly flew to find Huo Qujian to report the bad news.
"General Huo, General Huo, something is wrong" Joan of Arc's white horse and silver spear, with a long flowing blond hair, looks heroic in the chaos of the army.
After some searching, he finally found Huo Quji, who was fighting, waved his gun and knocked down several Roman soldiers, and shouted to Huo Quji.
Seeing Joan of Arc's solemn face, Huo Qujian didn't dare to slack off, hurriedly rode his horse closer, and asked in a loud voice: "Didn't I let you stay in the city to sit in the town, and came to the battlefield to find me in a panic, what's the matter?"
Joan of Arc cleared his throat and said quickly: "General Huo's big thing is not good, I just received a report from the scout that Futu Mountain has partially collapsed for no reason, completely blocking the road.
I'm afraid that reinforcements won't be able to come for a while, and we must retreat into the city of Ljuble, or abandon our positions, otherwise we will probably be annihilated by the Romans."
"How can this be" Huo Qujian was shocked and angry when he heard this, his face was full of helplessness, and the spear in his hand stabbed a Roman soldier fiercely, and threw it out violently in the air, "God doesn't bless us big man, how can such a thing that is not conducive to our army happen at this juncture?"
If the reinforcements could not arrive within twelve hours, the 50,000 soldiers under his command would likely be surrounded and annihilated by the Romans, and they could only retreat to the city and wait for reinforcements.
"Retreat, the whole army enters the city" Huo Qu whistled, turned his horse's head, and gave the order to collect the troops.
Within a few moments, the horn of retreating troops and the gong of collecting troops sounded on the battlefield, and the 40,000 Han troops retreated towards Ljubl after the break of Huang Feihu and Gao Changgong, trying to hold the city to the death.
Liu Xiu carried his sword and chased after him: "Hugh wants to let the Han army enter the city, give me a tight bite" In the midst of the shouting and neighing of horses, an elite cavalry of 20,000 people was killed from the oblique stab, which was as fast as the wind, and the first member of the general had a black-maned horse under his crotch, and roared loudly with a mace in his hand: "The Han people are not going to be rampant, and I am also coming."
Liu Xiu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this, and said with emotion: "Father finally sent out the most elite commando cavalry under his command, and after the death of Spartacus and Luo Shixin, he counted on Fan Hao to kill the enemy, and finally waited for him to come out, and the hope of annihilating Huo Quji has increased greatly" In fact, there are too many characters in the scene, and the swordsman has forgotten the three characters who were born two years ago. t1706231537:
