This Gallic regiment did not have forest hunters, but was armed with many javelinmen. Apparently prepared against the phalanxes.

Sijimo was secretly proud in his heart, because the central combat strength of his legion was the strong heavy cavalry. And the javelinmen belonged to the lightly armed forces and were most afraid of cavalry. So he decided to go head-to-head with his opponent.

Objectively, this Gallic legion was decent and had no outstanding advantages. However, with a large number of Gallic infantry forming a stable front, with the cooperation of light infantry, the overall combat effectiveness will not be bad.

Coupled with two light cavalry brigades, a large barbarian elite hoplite cavalry guard. Offensive and defensive. The commander is Meriadoc, the heir to the current Gallic faction.

The two armies met in an open field, high in the west and low in the east. The Gauls were on a higher position, and Meriadok, seeing the small size of the Macedonian army in front of him, ordered the infantry to attack on all fronts.

Sigimo relied on the superiority of his cavalry and did not care about the Gauls' attacks. He ordered the infantry to meet the enemy on the spot, the cavalry platoon in the second line ready to charge, and the archers at the forefront to lure the enemy.

The Gallic army, because of its high position, increased the range of the javelinmen, and threw many javelins from afar.

Many soldiers in the phalanx were stabbed, and the ranks were slightly disorganized. The archers counterattacked, but retreated behind without firing a few arrows. Because the Gallic infantry had already rushed over.

The opposing team's queues were horizontally flattened, and one after the other was on a long line. The width of the battle line had long exceeded the infantry ranks of the Germanic legions. The enemy's attack was encircled, and the attack was fierce and condescending.

The Phalanx of the Germanic Legion immediately fell into a bitter struggle.

Sijimo saw that the situation was passive, and the infantry line was already shaky.

So he immediately gathered the cavalry troops and moved to the right. Because the phalanx on the left and in the center were Germanic infantry, cannon fodder troops. On the right are the four Macedonian phalanxes, which are the backbone and cannot be easily abandoned. So he deployed the cavalry to protect their flanks.

The Gallic general Meriadoc was also a brave warrior, and he personally led the elite guards to the middle. Effortlessly, the phalanx in the middle was dispersed, and the phalanx next to it also collapsed one after another.

The middle of the Macedonian army collapsed. Meriadok turned to the left flank of Macedonia and flanked them on the right flank. The Germanic infantry here was also routed and fled.

Now only the Macedonian right flank phalanx, with the cooperation of cavalry, broke through the enemy lines on this side. Sijimo ordered the phalanx to move on and fight back on the high ground. The archers also followed the infantry.

In the quick and fierce battle just now, Sigimo's cavalry was entangled by the Gallic mastiffs and infantry and suffered heavy losses. Behind him was a large field of cavalry and horses, dead and wounded.

His three squadrons of light cavalry suffered more than half of the casualties. Fortunately, the heavy cavalry had excellent protection, only slightly injured the fur, and most of them were unharmed.

Sijimo used the break in the battle to observe and think about the situation on the battlefield, but he was still full of confidence. Because his Germanic hoplites could help him to victory.

After the Gauls broke through the left and center, the Meriadoc, believing that the enemy was over, ordered the infantry to turn back and attack the remaining four Macedonian phalanxes, causing the light cavalry to split up and continue the pursuit.

Sigimo seized this opportunity and led the cavalry to rush and kill the Gallic cavalry. At this time, Macedonian javelinmen, who had been in ambush for a long time, appeared from the grass and entangled the Gallic cavalry. Some of the escaped infantry also came back to help. Although the scattered light infantry resisted the cavalry ineffectively, they managed to delay time.

Macedonian cavalry units arrived, and the hoplites fiercely dispersed the Gallic hussar brigade. Due to the cross-attack, few of the Gallic cavalry were able to escape.

Meliadok hurriedly gathered the guards, as well as another group of light cavalry, to come to the remedy, but it was too late. The Macedonian cavalry fought very quickly, and the Meriadok guard was surrounded and annihilated by the Macedonian cavalry.

Having disposed of the enemy cavalry, Sigimo had already won most of his victory. Returning to the infantry front, the Macedonian phalanx counterattacked the high ground, and this time the Gallic army was at a disadvantage. The archers fired at the Gallic infantry from high places, and many of the barbarians fell to the ground with arrows.

When the cavalry turned back, the phalanx also counterattacked from the high ground at the same time, flanking back and forth. The phalanx of the Gallic infantry, which had been scattered by this time, was crushed. The Germanic cavalry did not relent, did not take prisoners, and killed all the enemy soldiers who participated in this battle.

Sijimo successfully completed his mission, intercepting and eliminating reinforcements. He didn't care about the loss, and in his own words:

"Soon, my Germanic warriors will be replenished. The size of the Eleventh Army will be doubled. ”

Oonos' army group was so tightly coordinated and moved so quickly that the Gauls had to abandon all their territory in Western Europe.

However, there were still small tribes and villages in this newly conquered land that refused to surrender on their own initiative, and the rebels and remnants of the Gallic army were still fighting against Macedonia. Oonos had to redistribute the legions into multiple operational detachments to encircle and eliminate the rebellious thieves.

In less than half a month, the Macedonian army cleared all rebel forces and captured alive the most influential Gallic general in the region, Brigomaglo Aldonna. Oonos personally ordered him to be hanged, and it was only after the Gauls were completely stabilized.

The plains of Western Europe have finally returned to tranquillity, and the Normandy region on the northern coast has become a problem.

Taking advantage of the Macedonian main force to attack westward, the British chief sent a samurai regiment to cross the English Channel by boat, landed in Belgium, and besieged Samarabriva. As a result, the residents of the city saw that they were their own people and actively responded. When the British army attacked the city, they revolted en masse, taking up farm tools and weapons to rebel. Access from the side gate of the city to the British warriors entering the city.

Originally, there were almost no defenders left in the city of Akna Saxos, only a few old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers who were unable to move to guard, less than a hundred people. Because he didn't expect such a thing to happen, according to common sense, there was no threat on land.

As a result, the wounded Macedonian soldiers left behind were brutally killed by the Britons, and their bodies were tied to crosses. As soon as this news reached the ears of the Macedonians, they were filled with righteous indignation and rage.

"Damn British barbarians!"

When Akna Saksos learned about it, he immediately thought of Bollon's advice. But he pretended it had nothing to do with him.

When Oonos heard of the rebellion in Samaro Briva, he offered to personally lead the Seventh Legion to quell the rebellion.

When the British chieftain heard that the sea-crossing warriors had successfully attacked the city, he was very excited and wanted to send more troops to counterattack the European continent. While he was happily drinking with his mistresses, the Macedonian Seventh Army had reached outside Samarabriva.

Enraged, the warriors began to hate the inhabitants of the place.
