A breakthrough on the Southern Front, but what about the North? What kind of battle will the Seventh Legion and the mixed regiment led by Memon fight against the Germans?

When Oonos arrived at the Seventh Legion, he was extremely embraced by the soldiers, and many of the veteran members stepped forward to hug the general, with tears of happiness in their eyes. The general felt very kind when he saw these old faces, and he was tired of the intrigue and arrogance of court life. He was happy to be back in barracks life because he enjoyed the simple and straightforward atmosphere.

Undoubtedly, the soldiers were willing to obey only the noble. The founder of the Seventh Legion returned and once again personally led the soldiers into battle. It greatly condenses the combat effectiveness of the legion. Oonos listened to Bolon's more detailed military briefing, and decided to assemble his army the next day and attack Germany across the border. No longer waiting for the Memon troops, they can just follow the Seventh Legion when they arrive.

The Macedonian Northern Vanguard Corps marched into Germanic territory, and the more woods they went, they entered the Nordic forest, the land of the Goths. Oonos kept his soldiers on guard, and the scouts sent out had to be in groups of three or five, not too far from the main force. Every time I passed through the woods, the damp air made everyone feel depressed, and they were nervous because they were on guard against the enemy. The soldiers didn't seem to like the large forest area. After several days of difficult marches, the Seventh Army finally reached Gothic City. It is a medium-sized town, and there are many primitive tribal tents outside the city.

Oonos ordered the town to be besieged, and the engineers made engineering vehicles. While patrolling around the city, the two groups of light cavalry encountered a group of Germanic female soldiers, who wore conical hats and hair that was scattered down, and their clothes were more unclothed than revealing. Everyone was armed with an axe, and when they saw the Macedonians, they screamed together. The cavalry ignored it at all, and directly divided into two teams to attack diagonally on the left and right, and easily defeated this group of Germanic female warriors and captured the survivors.

When the cavalry brought the captives back to the camp, the soldiers gathered around and watched curiously. There is no military prostitute system in the Macedonian army, and no female dependents are allowed from generals to soldiers. Therefore, it is rare for a few women to appear in the male crowd. The soldiers who had been resting lifted their spirits at once, and both young and old crowded around to get a second look at the women.

And these Germanic female soldiers are indeed eye-catching, they are scantily dressed, they wear animal skin skirts that do not cover the knees, and most of them are barefoot; The upper body is more like a vest, with a small breasts exposed, and the arms and shoulders are leaking out. The soldiers of the Legion were basically seeing Germanic women for the first time, they were tall and stocky, with long blond hair and very white skin. It's pure Nordic goths.

The Germanic women looked serious, and all of them had fierce eyes, which were not at all cute. The most unbearable thing is that they scream vigorously, which makes people uneasy. The cavalry brought them back only out of curiosity, could it be that there were many women in the Germanic army? However, judging from their combat effectiveness, they are definitely not the main force.

Oonos asked the local guide to communicate with the men to see if they could find any military information, but to no avail. They were ordered to be locked up, and whatever their situation was, these stubborn women did not cooperate with any contact with the Macedonians, and even refused to eat. After two days, the poor system among the female warriors starved to death. Oonos didn't bother to pay any attention to them, because the siege engines had already been built. There are not many defenders in the Gothic city, siege!

The Gothic defenders were completely unable to stop the attack of the Seventh Legion, and the scattered Germanic troops stood behind the walls and waited to fight the besiegers, only to be killed by archers and javelinmen. The Germanic cavalry also fell under the Macedonian pikes, and only in the central square of the town did the infantry of the two armies engage in a head-to-head confrontation.

The Germanic pikemen versus the Macedonian phalanx pikemen, although they were all phalanxes, the barbarian phalanx appeared to be more scattered, and the collective action was particularly incoherent. In contrast, the Macedonian phalanx was in the same direction, coordinated and flexible, and disciplined. The outcome of the battle can be imagined, the Macedonian infantry phalanx stabbed the Germanic phalanx head-on, and they were scattered and fled in all directions.

Macedonia easily captured Goth, bringing together the barbarian people of the city for a new registration and an oath of obedience to the new regime. The Goths were so frightened by the might of the Macedonian phalanx that they obediently obeyed the commands of Oonos.

But Polons came to talk to Oonos and said:

"This is strange, the last time we rushed to the village of Dulcis to help, it was reported that the Germanic army was coming. But now the closest thing to there is the Gothic stronghold, why are there so many defenders? And what about their main forces? ”

"It must have been moved in some other direction, and while we don't know what they're going to do now, the Goths certainly have a decent force. So we need to be vigilant in case they come to attack and retake Gothic City. "Oonos.

"But where did it go? Not long ago, our two armies faced each other, blocking each other's advances, why didn't they guard their own tribal centers? The news I got was indeed that Sigimo led the leading forces back to the homeland to assist the Gothic tribal leader Haryeuphus in defending the tribe with all his might. ”

"There must be something tricky to deal with, the Germanic tribal alliance is the same as the Dacian alliance, and the loose system makes them distrust each other. Besides, you're standing still in Gebid, and they've regularly let their guard down. ”

"What the general said is that his subordinates must send someone to find out Halyeuphus's troops, so that we can be ready to deal with them in time."

"Okay, you can do it."

"Yes."

It turned out that the Gothic leader Haryuus followed the advice of his lieutenant General Sijimo and withdrew his troops back to the defense. He wanted to use the fortifications to keep the enemy outside the city, and then use the tactics of ambush in the forest to sneak attack and crush the enemy. In fact, this strategy and tactics are really good, and if used properly, then it can make up for the backwardness of the Germanic army. However, the chieftain of the neighboring Macomani tribe, Cesisakos, was very unhappy with this, believing that Haryeuphus was cowardly and did not act according to the pre-arranged plan of the alliance. The best period for the invasion of Macedonia was delayed.

Cecissacus had long coveted the relatively wealthy Goths, and the two tribes had a vendetta.
