Cavalry is different from foot soldiers, because they also have to control war horses, so cavalry is generally based on individual combat.

Another point is that compared with the foot soldiers, although the training cost of the cavalry is much higher, and the good breed of war horses is also needed, the cavalry's marching speed is not known to be much faster than the foot soldiers.

For people like Rome and Great Qin, who have begun to go out of their original territory and start conquering the world, foot soldiers are meaningless, if they want to attack a distant enemy, they can only use cavalry, and they have to be elite cavalry, if they use infantry to go on an expedition, they don't know the year of the monkey.

Therefore, in a strong dynasty like Rome, it also caused the cavalry to only pay attention to individual combat ability, but not to pay attention to any formation, and finally, when it came to Seleucus today, they paid the price when they faced the cavalry of Great Qin.

But the elite of Rome is the elite of Rome, and it is not the same thing as those crooked melons and cracked dates before, and in terms of individual combat ability, Daqin's cavalry is actually inferior to the cavalry of Rome.

For the first time, Daqin's formation began to no longer chop melons and vegetables, although the Romans also had casualties, but they were not inferior in numbers, and their confidence was also very strong, and there was an indomitable momentum, in this case, Daqin's formation began to gradually show signs of loosening.

But this kind of situation was not something that Han Xin and Meng Tian did not expect at all, of course they knew that they could not deal with the Roman cavalry in the same way as dealing with people who were nothing.

For a small team of five people, once one of them is killed by the enemy, the lone people nearby will immediately replenish it and reorganize into a battle formation to minimize the loss. Avoid one-on-one battles with enemies.

With this method, Daqin was not at a disadvantage in the battle with the Roman cavalry.

Although the scene is the Romans' broadswords flying rapidly in the air, making the soldiers of Daqin very passive, but in fact, such a scene does not reflect any casualties, although the soldiers of Daqin also have casualties, but compared with the Romans, it is only not much.

"The Great Qin cavalry actually used such a complicated way of fighting, our elite cavalry only has 100,000, and they are so consumed, it must be a lose-lose situation, this battle, let's stop here!"

The two Roman principals were not personally involved in the battle, but were watching, but they were not very satisfied to see that it was happening.

Although they have heard from several channels that the combat effectiveness of the Great Qin cavalry is very strong, it is not that there has never been such a force before, and in the end, it turned out that compared with their Roman cavalry, they did not know how much worse, they originally thought that Great Qin was also such a good thing, but at this time, it was obviously not like this.

"Yes, our Roman cavalry is precious, not to be consumed so much, but if we retreat like this, it will not be our style, we let the armies on both sides cover the past, and then let our elites withdraw when the chaos is fighting, although this will lose a part of the cavalry on both sides, but it is also a consumption for the Great Qin cavalry."

After the two of them discussed, they definitely used to sacrifice some cavalry sent by the forces attached to them to consume Great Qin, and their elite wanted to withdraw after discovering the strength of Great Qin's cavalry.

As soon as the cavalry on both sides of the Romans moved, Han Xin knew what they meant, after all, according to the proportion of casualties, Daqin still had some advantages.

But this situation is also in line with Han Xin's intentions, although they have a slight advantage in casualties, but that is Daqin only has 100,000 elite soldiers, how much effort it took Han Xin and Meng Tian to train the formation is only known to the two of them, if this and the Roman cavalry come to a defeat, Han Xin and Meng Tian are still reluctant.

This game is actually about who is distressed first, who is reluctant first, if that's the case, this person is not far from losing. Now it is clear that the Romans are distressed first.

"They want to use Tian Ji to consume us in the way of horse racing, we just don't let them get their way, now that we have figured out the combat effectiveness of this Rome, we can't play with them like this anymore, Philip V and Xiang Yu have been watching the excitement for a long time, this time it's time to let them play!"

After Han Xin and Meng Tian threw out such a sentence, Meng Tian still agreed very much, and after they watched the Roman elite soldiers slowly retreat, they also let the cavalry under their command quickly withdraw to the city.

By the time the soldiers on both sides of the Romans rushed over, the Great Qin cavalry had already withdrawn.

What surprised the Romans was the strange behavior of the Great Qin cavalry, it was clear that they still had a lot of advantages, and they actually withdrew, which was really incredible.

But this is also good for the Romans, after all, although they can't say that they lost in this battle, but after all, the losses are real, the surprise attack is not good, the strong attack is not good, they have to think of a more advanced way, in just a few days, Seleucus has become a very difficult bone for them to gnaw.

What the Romans didn't know was that on the night after Han Xin and Meng Tian withdrew to the city, several Great Qin scouts rode out of the city and went in two different directions.

"Hmph, didn't these two guys in Daqin still think of relying on themselves to wipe out the 300,000 army of the Romans? This time we must have hit a wall, and that's when we thought of it! ”

After Philip V snorted at this, he summoned one of his more capable generals to his side, and gave him a few words in his ear, after which the general went to a large Macedonian camp, ordered seventy or eighty thousand cavalry, and set off in a mighty manner.

Earlier, Xiang Yu, who was already on the border between the Seleucians and the Mauryan Empire, also received a letter from Han Xin, and according to the agreement, five days later, he would flank the Roman camp on three sides.

Xiang Yu's preparation time is still very sufficient, because although Philip V's soldiers and horses have been prepared for a long time, but after all, there is still a certain distance from Seleuc, this time it is necessary to wait until all the men and horses of the three parties are gathered before they can start the attack on the Roman camp, otherwise, it will definitely be difficult to inflict any devastating blow on them.

In the next five days, the Romans worked out several strategies and carried out a series of strikes on several Seleu cities, but unlike before, this time Daqin's cavalry seemed to be cowardly, and they had been cowering in the city, and they didn't even engage the Romans head-on.

This made the mentality of the Roman generals relax a little, and they thought that Daqin only had so many elite soldiers, and at this point, they no longer dared to play any head-on conflict with the Romans, if this was really the case, according to their previous experience, as long as they continued to put pressure on the defenders in the city, sooner or later they would give up this city, and once they gave up this city, the rest of the city would definitely be overwhelming.

Five days passed, and the Great Qin cavalry did not do anything except release arrows on the top of the city wall, which further strengthened the confidence of the Romans, who thought that the Great Qin cavalry was really afraid of them.

The fifth day passed like this, and after nightfall, everything seemed to be the same as before, but for Han Xin and Meng Tian, it was not the same.

In the middle of the night yesterday, they had received a signal from Philip V and Xiang Yu that they must be able to start attacking the Roman camp according to their original plan, and after receiving this news, Han Xin and Meng Tian were also making final preparations.

This battle will be an important battle to raise the status of Great Qin to the same level as Rome and Macedonia, as long as this Roman invincible cavalry can be eliminated, Great Qin's historical status will immediately be different.

In five days, the vigilance of the Romans did not know how much it had dropped, but they still had their reason for being able to sweep through various countries in the west, their large camp was very meticulous, and there were many soldiers patrolling the periphery.

But this situation is no longer any different for the three groups of Great Qin, Macedonia and Xiongnu.

West, east, north, as soon as the hour came, the cavalry from all three directions began to storm the Roman camp with their own speed.

The first to be discovered was of course the cavalry of Daqin, and the Romans, who were patrolling outside the camp, found that the soldiers in the city had rushed out at this time, and informed their generals as soon as possible.

"They actually attacked our big camp at this time, they really don't know the vigilance of our Roman cavalry, we don't know how many battles we have fought like this, let Daqin's cavalry have a good look at our combat effectiveness tonight!"

After the general finished speaking, he was about to start leading the troops to teach Han Xin and Meng Tian how to behave, but the next two pieces of news made his mood take a 180-degree turn.

"General, there are also large numbers of cavalry attacking their large camp from the west and north!"

There are enemies in three directions, this is definitely something that the Roman generals did not expect, their first reaction is, of course, that this is just that Daqin has separated the men and horses, and there are more than 200,000 people on the left and right of Daqin, and if they are separated, they are not afraid.

"Daqin actually adopted the practice of dividing troops against us, these three roads of the army, all the way is tens of thousands of men and horses, as long as we break through the men and horses at the city gate, this city is ours!"

After judging the current situation a little, the Roman general said to the people under his command, after saying this, he personally led the army to meet the Great Qin army that rushed in the direction of the city gate, but casually sent tens of thousands of people to resist the troops in the other two directions.

If Xiang Yu and Philip V were really not involved in this battle, the Romans would have been right to do this, but this is obviously not the case now.

Judging from the scene of the battle at the beginning, it was obvious that Daqin's three-way raid was not successful, and the battle seemed to be very fierce.

But before half an hour came, the situation was different, the Roman generals received the news that the other two sides were almost beaten by the enemy, and there were two of them, one of which was very fatal to the Romans.

"General, the enemy on both sides doesn't seem to be the cavalry of Great Qin who fought with us before, one side seems to be the cavalry under Philip V, and the other side is also something we have never seen before!"

"What, Daqin is actually linked to Macedonia?"

This was obviously the worst of the news the Romans could know now, Macedonia was the most formidable enemy in the world, and if Macedonia did join the battle, the balance of victory would no longer be the same as they had imagined.

This news made the Roman generals like a lightning strike, if the enemy on one side was the elite of Philip V, it would obviously not be long before those capable cavalry would be eliminated, and at that time, they would face a situation of attacking from both sides, and it would be time for the cavalry of Great Qin and the cavalry under Philip V to attack on both sides.

The Roman cavalry had not been in such an awkward position for a long time, and the two generals fell into a dead silence, although they both knew that the best outcome for them now was to withdraw from the side from which there was no enemy, that is, from the direction from which they came, but none of them said such an offer, for the simple reason that if the Roman cavalry had failed so simply, they knew very well what would be when they returned to meet them.

Sometimes it's a good thing to stand on a high place, but the only bad thing is that it hurts to fall from a high place, and that's obviously the case with the Romans now.

And hesitation, will also make them fall into a more embarrassing situation, they originally thought that as long as the people on Philip V's side could resist a little, it would be fine, but it turned out that the more underestimated the more terrible, it was Xiang Yu who took the lead in killing the enemy troops around him.

Xiang Yu has been silent for a long time since he defeated the Peacock Dynasty, and now he finally has a chance, and after a fight, he found that the other party is all out-and-out rookies, of course, there will be no softness, plus Xiang Yu has brought 100,000 elites, which is 20,000 or 30,000 more than the cavalry under Philip V, so it was Xiang Yu who opened the situation first.

"General, we don't have an advantage on all three sides, once we are encircled, today is a situation where it is difficult to fly! It's better to withdraw the troops quickly, return to Rome and inform the consuls of this matter, and then make plans! ”
