"Damn the Romans" As for what Marius Ugri said to Wang Meng, that one Roman citizen can overturn three Persians, and a hundred Roman citizens can be worth two thousand Persians, it is not surprising that it reached the ears of Persians such as Ergutaibahram.
The so-called Roman citizens were professional warriors who learned all kinds of martial arts from an early age, and when they grew up, they learned how to fight with their comrades.
Because of the small population base of Rome, a large number of citizens were recruited into the army in every war, and it can be said that the vast majority of Roman citizens had the experience of being on the battlefield.
On the other hand, whether it was during the Parthian Empire or the Sassanid Empire, Persia did not have professional soldiers in the social system, and the slightly elite troops were only armed and trained, unlike Roman citizens who would teach their children how to fight from an early age.
The Roman citizenship system is to learn how to kill people from an early age, and the Persians on the other side are not the same thing, professional warriors fight with ordinary people, and to tell the truth, Roman citizens can really easily defeat three Persians.
The Romans and the Persians were at war almost non-stop, and it was usually the Persians who were on the weaker side.
But that's what happened, and it sounded like it was another, that the Persians would not admit that they were weaker than the Romans, and that they would be furious when they heard such remarks.
The Persian army under the Pingban Captain Department was only 3,000 men, and even if Ergutai Bahram represented Persia to some extent, he was still not qualified to participate in the formulation of battle plans by the top echelons of the Han army.
They were notified to march to the front, and it is not known whether it was deliberate or what happened, the Romans were placed on the same forbidden route as them.
Huan Wen didn't have any special thoughts about the Romans entering the war, and since the Persians could join in, it didn't matter if there were more Romans.
In fact, the two armies combined with hundreds of thousands of fierce battles, thousands of people filled in and couldn't make a splash at all, in line with the idea that one more person might be able to consume some more strength of the enemy army, some arrows or something, Huan Wen would not refuse friendly troops who brought their own dry food, that is, those aliens don't want to snoop on military secrets.
In the past two years, the Pingman Captain Department has continued to open up inland, not only opening up production areas, but also not stopping the construction of roads, but the defense depth of the later expansion has been shorter, and most of them have maintained their original appearance, and the roads have not been repaired much better.
In such an area where plants grow very fast, there are not only plants but also plants, and although the road to the front line of the army has been cleared repeatedly, there are still weeds and some plant rhizomes in the soil, and the roads are simply forests on both sides, which is equivalent to the march of the troops on the road opened in the forest.
About 500 of the Persians led by Egutai Bahram wore metal armor, which was a type of armor pierced with rope and inlaid in leather, which was distinguished from the armor of Zhuxia in terms of armor.
Zhuxia's armor, because of the relationship between smelting technology and forging technology, for a long time, it was actually impossible to achieve the same size of each piece of armor, resulting in the appearance of different sizes of armor.
The Persians absorbed nutrients from the West in smelting technology and forging technology, as well as a lot of technology and ideas from Ah San's side, as early as the Parthian Empire, they mastered good smelting and forging technology, and the Parthian Empire's armor and cavalry equipment could achieve the same size of each piece of armor.
Whether it was during the Parthian Empire or to the present day of the Sassanid Empire, the Persians did not change much in the manufacture of armor, except for the leather and cloth, and the outer armor pieces were strictly arranged in a series of specifications.
If you can wear a piece of metal armor, you can be regarded as a soldier no matter what civilization you are in, and a soldier is the backbone and elite of every regime.
No one knows how many armor soldiers there are in the Persian Sassanid country, and being able to send 500 armor soldiers to the Pingban Captain Headquarters to help in the war has to be said not only to show sincerity, but also to have a kind of "brother is not false at all" mentality.
Don't think that the 3,000 Persians under the command of Ergutai Bahram are all soldiers, except for the 500 armor soldiers, there are 800 warriors, and the rest are servants who cannot go into battle to fight, which is distinguished by the clothing itself.
There were armorers with metal armor all over their bodies, and there were warriors who wore at least leather armor, and all used spears as their main weapons.
The armor soldier will have a small round shield with a spear and a sheathed sword straddling his waist.
Warriors in leather armor carry spears and have a blade about the length of a dagger at their waists.
Most of the servants did not carry weapons, and there were no traces of soldiers in terms of clothing, and they were purely dressed as civilians.
The Roman troops who walked behind the Persians, their clothes looked very bright, that is, the most ordinary warriors had a set of leather hard armor full of Roman characteristics, and the metal armor was worn with layers of metal plates matching plate armor, and the most sinister thing was that every Roman had a red cape, and there was a whole row of shiny red hair on the helmet of individual officers.
The Romans were also a people who were very good at using spears, watching the Roman troops walking in a procession, flanked by a square shield in one hand and a short spear in the other, Marius Ugri in the middle was riding a strong horse, and in front of him was a row of Roman soldiers with swords at their waists holding shields, and at the front and back distances were Roman soldiers with swords at their waists but full of javelins stuck in their boxes.
The Han people will feel that the Romans are more worthy of approaching, because the color of their hair and eyes is similar to that of the Han Chinese, and the Romans are very respectful of red like the contemporary Han people.
Look at the Roman troops on the march, not only their capes are red, but their underwear and skirts are actually red, and even they have a red scarf around their necks.
Look at the Han army again, what kind of armor is there, in addition, except for the armor and pants, it is all red, even the cloak behind individual generals is also red.
If you look at the overall marching arrangement, only the Persians did not arrange the shield soldiers on both sides, such as the Han army and the Roman army arranged the shield soldiers on both sides, which can also be seen whether there is rich experience in jungle marching.
When marching in the woods, you basically don't expect to be able to spread out your troops, and you can only take the formation of a snake all the time.
This kind of marching army has always been the easiest to be truncated, so the soldiers with shields are arranged on both sides, in fact, even if they march in the woods in the area controlled by their own side, no one can guarantee that they will not be attacked, so the shield soldiers on both sides should organize the shield wall at the moment of the surprise attack, which is not only a long-range attack in the defensive forest, but also the key to stabilizing the position.
It is not to blame the Persians, although there are forest areas in the area they are in, but most of the areas are still mainly exploited, and then there are the Gobi and deserts, which are like the Romans who often had to fight in the forests in central and eastern Europe and Britain.
The Han army had experience in jungle warfare, and there were enough dense forests in the south of the mainland, and then it was to march into the Indochina Peninsula and accumulate enough lessons.
Huan Wen has already ordered the navy to attack, although it is a defensive battle on land, but it does not mean that it is necessary to sit and wait for the enemy to attack, and it is still very necessary to take the initiative to attack.
Under the needs of the overall situation, Si Hongzhuang was ordered to lead the army to attack, and the vanguard troops had already gone out of the defensive depth, and the farthest ones were approaching within five miles of the coalition camp, and the two sides had already started a fierce battle.
The Persians and Romans, as well as the subsequent Han army, are now following the path opened up by the vanguard, and in fact have entered the war zone.
"It is very necessary for us to learn from the Han people" Ergutai Bahram also rode horses, but the horses came from the Han army, unlike Marius Ugri, who transported his own mounts.
He looked at the dense forests on both sides of the road, and the closer ones could naturally see clearly, and the slightly deeper ones were either blocked by many overlapping tree trunks, or the forests were too dense and dark: "Beware of sudden enemy attacks." ” I don't know if it was the crow's beak of Ergutai Bahram or what, but almost as soon as he finished speaking, a whistle sounded in the woods.
The whistle was blown by the Han army, which was that the Han army had long set up sentry guards in the woods around the road, and their role was not to block or anything, but purely as a warning.
It didn't take long for Ergutai Bahram to see three Han soldiers running out of the woods, and when he was still a little stunned, two rapid trumpets were issued one after another.
The horn of the Han army was blown, and it sounded very strong.
The Roman troops were picked up by someone who picked up a trumpet and blew, and the sound sounded a little crisp.
Also at the same time, the Han army and the Roman troops on both sides have been organizing shield walls in sections, and the more amazing thing is that both the Han and the Romans erected spears as soon as they organized the shield wall, causing both sides to look like hedgehogs.
Coming to his senses, Eguthai Bahram shouted loudly and told the armor to organize the shield wall, and ordered the rest of the men to cooperate with the armor.

He was not stupid enough to ride on horseback as a target, but he jumped off the horse and drew his scimitar from his waist, staring at the forest that was constantly roaring in a mess.
Of course, the sentries who ran out of the forest were arranged in advance, and some of them even wore colors.
It's not that they are greedy for life and afraid of death before they run away from their posts, but they have been instructed in advance, and in the face of a small number of enemies that can be solved, of course, they will raise the alarm and fight with them at the same time, but there are so many enemies that they can't cope with it, so they naturally retreat to protect themselves.
"The number is incalculable" Cheng Shuo was the immediate commander of this force, and he rushed to the front with 5,000 men in his headquarters and Persian and Roman troops participating in the war.
He frowned and looked at one of the chiefs who reported, but he didn't blame.
It was a wooded area, with trees everywhere and all kinds of plants, but it was not a place with a wide field of vision, and it would be strange if you could easily visualize the number of enemy troops in this terrain.
There was a lot of shouting in the woods, not only on one side, but on both sides of the road, so that Cheng Shuo had to wonder if the front line was in trouble, otherwise it was still a few miles away from the battle zone, how could the enemy army infiltrate with a large force Cold arrows and strange things had already begun to shoot out of the forest or were thrown, the shield walls kept clashing, the Han army did not counterattack, the Romans were very calm, even the Persians who hastily organized the defense did not have any impulse, and the troops who arranged the defense in sections were so silent.
Perhaps it was the passive silence that encouraged the enemy troops, the first of whom howled and rushed out of the woods to the Persians, who looked easier to bully, and then a large group of enemy troops rushed out of the woods.
The Persians looked really easy to bully, and the small round shield had worked hard to arrange the shield wall, but it was really not as good as the Roman square shield and the Han army's tower shield to pile up the wall, resulting in the cold arrows and strange things shot out of the forest to achieve certain results for the Persians.
Moreover, there were more than a thousand unarmed servants in the ranks of the Persians, and those servants greatly disrupted the defense of Egutai Bahram.
Compared with the Han army and the Roman army, the Persians looked very well defended, and the Persians looked very easy to bully Cheng Shuo found that many parts of the Long Snake's team had been attacked, and he could roughly judge the number of enemy troops, which must be much larger than the number of their team anyway.
When he saw that the Persians were the first to enter hand-to-hand combat, he had no intention of ordering the reinforcement of his troops, but instead calmly continued to observe the enemy's movements.
The Romans next to the Persians laughed out loud when they saw the Persians' embarrassment, but there were Romans who occasionally threw javelins at the enemies who were bullying the Persians.
The Romans laughed and laughed, but their military qualities were not bad.
The Romans conquered too many peoples, one moment it was the enemy army and the next moment it was a friendly army, although there was no idiom of "lips and teeth", but there were still related ideas, and it was clear that once the Persians were finished, they would not be better.
When Egutai Bahram saw that the Romans were supporting him, even though he threw a javelin as a possible way to injure himself, his inner shame exploded.
"Counterattack" Ergutai Bahram slashed to death an enemy soldier who rushed to him without opening his eyes, regardless of the blood splashed on his face, he didn't even wipe it, and shouted with a hideous face: "The Romans are watching the counterattack counterattack counterattack The Romans can be said to be a "G-spot" of the Persians, it doesn't matter who looks down on them, but they can't let the Romans look down on them, it's something worse than death, and in an instant the Persians are "violent", and the armor disbands the shield array step by step, and the rest of the people are also red-eyed and pounced on the nearest enemy army, starting a fierce fight.
Marius Ugri saw the actions of the Persians is mouth twitched, what is the mentality of the Persians, and how can they not be clear as a hostile people who have been at war for hundreds of years, that is, standing on the side of the strong will find the other party's behavior very funny.
He turned his head to look at the "main flag" on the Han army's side, which was still very steadily maintaining its defense, only reflecting with long-range weapons.
"The Seris are not deliberately depleting the Persians" "No reason" To be honest, Marius Ugri didn't understand what the Han army meant
