A large cloud of dust appeared not far from the right side of the Roman formation, which attracted the attention of not only the Roman army, but also the other Sassanid.

"Reinforcements?"

The smug smile on Ixie's face disappeared without a trace, replaced by solemnity and doubt. "I didn't expect Theodosius to have reinforcements! Order the army to retreat and regroup to meet the enemy! ”

"Woo! Woo! Woo! ”

A few short but powerful horn sounds stopped the attacking Sassanid army in front!

"Retreat, retreat!"

Led by their front-line commanders, they regrouped into shield walls and slowly retreated step by step, leaving precious respite for the second array of Roman legions.

"Stand back! Back off! ”

All of them were exhausted, they were shaking with their weapons in their hands, and even the iron swords were no longer holding steadily. Sweat and blood melted together, and everyone was already unbearable to fight.

"Caesar, here they are!" The officers remained calm, and they whispered to Theodosius II, standing up straight, as if they all knew that their Augustus was waiting for this moment. I saw Theodosius II slowly stand up and ask without looking back, "How many people did they bring with them?" ”

"It's too far away, I don't know!"

One of the officers answered truthfully.

"Then take a closer look!"

For a moment, Andrew felt as if Theodosius II had regained his own composure and courage, only to see Theodosius II turn around and jump out of the carriage two steps forward, and the nearest officer hurriedly backed down and respectfully handed over the scepter of command!

"How much do we lose?" Theodosius II took the scepter, and apart from the redness of his eyes, it was really no different from what he had before.

"The first array, two thousand people, a rout, the second array, four thousand people, lost more than half of it, and it is unbearable to fight again." Worthy of a senior officer, he just glanced back at the battlefield and roughly understood the current form.

"Move the third array to the position of the second array, and let the boys of the second array rest!" Theodosius II carried the scepter and slowly came to a high ground where he could see the entire form of the battlefield. Theodosius saw a conservative Sassanid army that had to be taken for fear of that force, and they braved the rain of arrows from the Roman archers to retreat, until they finally came to a stop beyond the range of the archers and began to confront the reorganized First Constantine Army.

"Quick, faster!" From time to time, Luga urged the ironclad cavalry brigade behind him, and from time to time he craned his neck to look, feeling that there was a brief truce on the battlefield ahead, and it must be because of their arrival.

"Oh, Luga, don't rush, you also know the weight of our horses' loads, if you continue to advance at this speed, you will be exhausted before you reach the battlefield!" Arminius complained dissatisfiedly in the back: "I think I still have to remind you, guest of the Western Empire, I am the real commander of this team, you are just my parallel, to put it bluntly, I am just my deputy, is it possible that you serve in the legion of the Western Empire to urge your commander with this attitude?" ”

"Oh my God, you should be glad!" Luga turned back to Arminius and said, "I have tried many people before, but they have not listened, and now few of them have survived the battlefield. ”

"You!" Arminius was so angry that his face turned red, but when he tried to refute, Luga turned around and hurried away, leaving him embarrassed and unsure of what to do.

"Stop! Stop it! ”

The ironclad cavalry stopped on a slope on the north side of the battlefield on both sides, and as Arminius said, the horses covered in chain mail were already out of breath after only a kilometer or two, and it was a last resort to stop here. Because in a hurry, people can get off their horses and move forward, but now that it is a battlefield, the situation is changing rapidly, so there is no room for a moment.

"Hey! Caesar! Lugazema came to the front and shouted at the Roman army: "I have brought your long-awaited army!" Let's go together and defeat the enemy! ”

"Hooray!"

The Romans in the army raised their weapons and cheered at Luga, the reinforcements that arrived in time for the great battle were as exciting as any encouragement!

"Hey, guests of the Western Empire, are you showing yourself too much!" Luga's appearance in this way of arousing the resentment of Arminius, who was in the army, was now extremely disgusted with Luga, because Luga's presence seriously threatened his command of the army. His right hand couldn't help but clench the hilt of his sword, and his eyes stared at Luga, who was enjoying the cheers of the legions in front of him, and his heart was eager to cut him with a thousand swords!

"What? But five hundred. Ishae had seen the cavalry behind Luga from afar, but this made him wonder because the Roman cavalry on the hillside was too similar to the cavalry of the Praetorian Cavalry Legion in his country, carrying a four-meter-long lance, carrying a compound bow from the Huns, and a solid armor all over his body, including his horse. Unlike the Sassanids, the Sassanid cavalry were half-armoured, that is, protected the front half of the body, and this army, whether it was soldiers or horses, was armed to the teeth. Because of such protection, they don't even need to be equipped with shields, because the armor on their bodies is the best protection!

"Good! It's coming, it's coming! ”

Theodosius II's words were mixed with excitement, he held the scepter in his hand tightly, looked back at all the officers behind him, and ordered: "Well, everyone, return to your posts, and we, in the witness of God, will defeat Sassanid and Isiae!" ”

"Loyal to Caesar, loyal to Rome!"

All the officers performed a military salute similar to that of the Nazis, which were probably modeled after the military salute of the Roman legions.

Soon, the officers returned to their posts, and they used their loud voices to reinvigorate the soldiers, like key parts, driving this huge war machine to slowly operate.

"Have the archers count the remaining arrows and come forward to consume them first."

Theodosius II calmly commanded, the reorganized legions slowly regained their new fighting strength, and all the soldiers with wavering minds settled down, they waited, waiting for Augustus to arrange for them.

"Our mission is simple!" Aurius. Luga watched the regrouping of the Roman legions below and understood Theodosius II's decision to attack. He looked back at the cavalry behind him and said in a deep voice: "Charge, withdraw, and charge again until the Sassanid infantry is completely defeated!" ”

"You seem to have forgotten that I am the real commander!" Arminius glanced at the cavalry behind him, who could not see any expression because they were wrapped in heavy armor. But it doesn't matter, just recognize the scepter in Arminius's hand! "As the commander of this army, I command you, Aurius. Luga. Arminius pointed his scepter at Luga and said fiercely: "This is the war of our Eastern Empire, you are from the Western Empire, get out!" ”

"Hah!" Luga had already expected this, and saw him unhurriedly take out the ring that Theodosius II had given him from his bosom, show it to Arminius, and say, "Your Excellency, do you recognize this ring?" ”

"What?" Arminius's eyes widened, his face full of surprise, he recognized it, and he was familiar with it, wasn't this the ring that Augustus often wore on his hand?

"Look at Your Excellency's expression, I think you recognize it!"

Luga played with the ring in front of Arminius, and continued, "This ring has a line engraved on it. The power belongs to Caesar! Of course, one of the ancestors, Augustus Caracalla, said: The emperor's order is the supreme law! Augustus Theodosius II has given me the ring with his own hands, and you know that although you are the supreme commander of this army, I have the right to exercise your power in your place on behalf of Augustus, Arminius! ”

"Damn!"

Arminius gritted his teeth, but so what, he just never thought that Luga actually had Augustus's ring, and he had to bow his head and accept his fate, because in front of the ring, his scepter was meaningless!
