The cavalry units of the Princes' Alliance Army, in a sharp posture, began to assault the middle of Rome's huge military formation. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

With the melodious sound of the trumpet, the Roman phalanx entered the defensive posture.

The heavily armoured Roman phalanx was most fond of this garrison. The enemy who came by surprise from afar has always been just straw to be harvested in their eyes. This kind of straw has been harvested by the Roman phalanx soldiers for nearly a thousand years, and they have never missed a single one.

Many surviving Roman veterans who had gone through the series of Armenian battles in China and the Asiatic campaign were excited. They tapped their shields and began to roar, and in all the previous battles against Huaxia, they had not had a chance to enter the battle in their current form. And this time, it was finally in the rhythm of the Roman phalanx.

"The front is your life, defend the front, kill the enemy, the glory of the empire is calling you!" The Roman centurions were loud and morale-boosting.

The Roman army, in the plain of Ephesus, laid a huge steel defense line three kilometers long and five kilometers long. A sturdy, dense, defensive line of huge steel shields, each with a sharp spear pointing towards the sky, how spectacular.

At this moment, 300,000 Roman soldiers were closely linked, and their formation was already a steel fortress full of barbs.

And the warriors of Huaxia, under the spur of the princes led by Yuan Shao, crashed into this steel fortress.

Arrows rained down, obscuring the bright sunshine, as if a dark cloud had suddenly appeared, enveloping a square kilometer of land.

It was a rain of arrows fired by hundreds of thousands of Roman soldiers, invincible.

The cavalry of the alliance of the princes, who launched a surprise attack as a cone-shaped formation, although they were protected by armor, fell in pieces in the face of the fierce arrow strikes.

The cavalry of the expeditionary force of the Chinese Alliance also used running to shoot in color.

But the Romans, who were in a fortress-like state of garrison, were familiar with this kind of counterattack. Under the loud reprimand of the centurion, the soldiers in the back row raised their shields, and suddenly the entire area shrouded by the rush became a turtle shell array.

The dense arrows fell sharply, smashing on the shield with a clanging sound, and it did nothing.

"Impact, impact is coming. Bow up and hold your shoulders! ”

The strong and domineering situation of thousands of horses galloping can scare people to death. But the Roman soldiers, reprimanded by the centurions, were ready for the impact.

A loud continuous thunderous crash began to fill the entire heaven and earth.

The Romans were very cunning, and the Roman phalanx in the front row deliberately kept the shields in their hands at a slight angle.

It was from this point of view that the cavalry of the alliance army of the princes who came from the impact all rushed into the sky in front of the huge hedge force. Thousands of war horses, like cars that had been involved in car accidents in later generations, volleyed somersaults and smashed into the back row of the Roman phalanx.

Puff puff ......, thousands of Chinese horses and cavalry died tragically on the sharp spears erected by the Roman phalanx. The Roman soldiers did not need to move at all, as long as they stood in a dense position and erected their spears, they were able to successfully kill the fallen Chinese cavalry.

In the first contact, the alliance army of the Chinese princes failed to shake the steel fortress composed of Roman phalanxes, and thousands of cavalrymen turned on their backs, and a large number of people died tragically under the rain of arrows in Rome.

However, the charge has already begun and will not stop there. The 300,000 soldiers of the Chinese Alliance Army and the 100,000 foreign legions were like a flood, one after another, impacting the Roman phalanx. They were not afraid of death, and they fought valiantly, hoping to tear apart the Roman phalanx.

However, wave after wave of Chinese soldiers died tragically in front of the Roman phalanx.

The Roman phalanx did not move a single step, neither advanced nor retreated.

The Roman phalanx was nothing short of a killing machine, the shield array opened rhythmically in a fan, and tens of thousands of spears pierced out, reaping the lives of the enemy.

The Roman soldiers were killing like hemp, they were excited, and this was the rhythm of their war. In the previous battles with Huaxia, the resentment that they were forced to drag into Huaxia's rhythm suddenly turned into a sharp blade and spewed out.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

Every Roman roar would take the lives of thousands of Chinese warriors.

Princes' side.

"How so?"

The princes led by Yuan Shao thought that they only needed one surprise attack to be able to cut through the battle formation of the Romans. Because the Romans have historically been incompetent and are no match for them at all.

Now, however, this is not the case at all. The princes' soldiers pounced on the Roman phalanx, and every soldier fought to the death, but could not shake the Roman phalanx even half a step.

"It can't be like this!" Liu Biao exclaimed, "In the Battle of Mount Alats, the Roman soldiers were not like this, they were vulnerable. ”

Yuan Shu, Liu Zhang, and others also made similar calls. They all fought against the Romans more than once, and each time, they defeated the Romans by destroying them, so why was this time different?

Subsequently, the princes led by Yuan Shao thought that the current situation was just a coincidence, and only with a little more force could they tear apart the Roman phalanx and open the road to victory.

In the sound of drums, under the spur of the princes led by Yuan Shao, the sons of Huaxia composed a magnificent song. And for the Romans, it was tantamount to a melody of victory.

The expeditionary force of the alliance of the Chinese princes fought to the death to attack the steel fortress composed of 300,000 Romans, but was ruthlessly killed and wounded in large numbers.

And Yuan Shao and them, red-eyed, kept giving loud orders and attacking with all their might.

An hour later, when Yuan Shao and the others realized something, 100,000 Huaxia Erlang and 80,000 foreign legions were buried on the Aegean coast. Blood, the remains, made the plain of Ephesus a veritable hell on earth.

The Romans stepped on the corpses of Chinese soldiers and sang a triumphant song of Roman glory.

Severus and the Glory Bloodline were already trembling with excitement, and they won like this. On the verge of the collapse of the empire, they ushered in a glorious victory that completely turned the tide, a glorious victory that would go down in the annals of Roman history for thousands of years.

"Defeat Qin Zi in! No....... Severus suddenly remembered that it was not Qin Zijin who was in command on the other side, and suddenly had many regrets.

Princes' side.

"Yuan Benchu, you idiots!" Cao Cao angrily grabbed Yuan Shao's collar, "This is the real combat power of the Romans, what Qin Zijin said is not wrong." ”

"And before that? We've been winning. Faced with the current situation, Yuan Shao was frightened and lost his voice.

"What do you say?" Cao Cao roared. In fact, in the beginning, he also hoped to destroy the Romans in one battle. However, he did not believe that the Romans were incapable of fighting power, so he put forward a proposition similar to the Qin Feng movement warfare. But the princes led by Yuan Shao came here after abandoning Qin Feng, so naturally they would not adopt Cao Cao's suggestion, so Cao Cao reserved his opinion.

Cao Cao still had some hopes, so he reserved his opinion, and now it seems that he was wrong. Big mistake.

The princes were frightened, things were so unexpected that they began to be overwhelmed.

"What to do!"

"If only Qin Zijin was here, he must have a way!" The princes were frightened. Faced with the situation of fiasco, they remembered Qin Feng.

On the battlefield, the morale of the Chinese Alliance Expeditionary Force plummeted, and the combat strength was very different. Severus' side blew the trumpet of victory, and the Romans suddenly swarmed out and began to eat and kill the alliance army throughout the battlefield.

The situation took a turn for the worse, and the princes led by Yuan Shao were heartbroken, they no longer had the courage to face the Romans, and they retreated with their whole army.

In July 195 C.E., in Asia, the 'Great Defeat of Ephesus' took place that shocked the world. Comparable to the famous fiasco of 'Waterloo'.

At that time, the princes deposed the alliance leader Qin Feng and completely abandoned Qin Feng's correct theory of movement warfare. The princes misassessed the fighting power of the Roman army, and they thought that they would be able to destroy the Romans in a single battle and exalt their prestige outside the territory, but they entered the game to promote their weaknesses and avoid their strengths. They stormed the Roman phalanx, which was known for its defensive power all over the world, and suffered heavy losses, burying more than 100,000 people on the battlefield. The Chinese princes, led by Yuan Shao, created the Ephesian rout that shocked the world.

At that time, the situation of the Chinese expedition took a sharp turn for the worse, and it entered a crisis of annihilation of the entire army and '300,000 sons and daughters leaving their hometowns, and not a single person could return'.

As the situation after the rout became out of control, even if Sun Wu was resurrected, he would not be able to turn the tide. (To be continued.) )
