In the melee, the Germanic cavalry no longer jumped off the horse, but directly relied on the stirrup, stabilized on the horse's back, drew a long sword, and killed bloodthirsty. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

One by one, Agrippa's legionary cavalry was assassinated and fell from his horse. The bloodthirsty Germans stabbed the horses in the eye with their swords, forcing the horses to jump in terror and throwing the riders off the horses.

On one side were the Germanic cavalry, which had their hands free, and on the other hand, the Roman cavalry, who could barely maintain their physical balance with one hand, and the casualty ratio of the two sides was grossly disproportionate. Ten Roman cavalrymen were killed each, and only one Germanic cavalry was killed.

"Appis!"

During the melee, Agrippa recognized the commander of the Germanic cavalry. Enraged, Agrippa raised his sword and drove his horse towards Apis' location. The general guards behind them also nervously followed their commanders, and their duty was to protect their generals, no matter what time they were.

In the sparse woods, the sun shone through the branches overhead, and for a moment images of the past flashed through Appis's mind, kissing Octavia on the cheek for the first time, becoming a gladiator for the first time, being personally rewarded by Caesar for the first time, fighting grizzly bears in the Gallic forests, and being besieged by barbarians in Britain for three days and three nights. All kinds of images flashed in front of my eyes. Then, Appis took the sword in his hand and kissed the bloody Roman knight's sword with his lips. Looking in the direction Agrippa was coming, he galloped away......

The general's guards around him followed the commander and charged together.

Surrounded by countless Germanic cavalry and Roman cavalry, in front of them, Agrippa's elite guards and Appis's Germanic escorts rushed head-on. In a moment, Apis swung his iron sword at Agrippa, who swung the saddle in one hand and the knight's sword in the other. There was a crisp sound of iron striking in the air. Subsequently, the two armies rushed together to kill the general guards.

Agrippa clutched his shoulders, warm blood slowly oozing through the cracks in his armor. Beneath the fine armor was a bloody wound. Appis, on the other hand, rode almost unharmed. After all, the long-term war tempering still has a role. By the time Agrippa was fledgling, Apis had already fought the entire Gallic Wars and was engaged in the brutal civil war between Caesar and Pompey.

"Retreat!"

Beside him, the legionary cavalry was constantly slaughtered by the Germanic cavalry of Appis, and the ground beneath his feet was stained red with blood. In desperation, Agrippa could only shout. And Apis could no longer hunt down, or have no time to hunt down. Because ahead, Agrippa's five heavy infantry legions were slowly encircling their three legion phalanxes.

The commander was defeated, but unbeknownst to the soldiers at the front, they continued to carry out Agrippa's pre-battle tactics, constantly squeezing Appis's heavy infantry phalanx from the flanks. At this moment, Appis knew that if he did not support the infantry, then the three legions would be destroyed.

"Don't pursue, follow me, support the phalanx!"

Immediately, Appis shouted in the middle of the battlefield.

……

In the middle of the battlefield, the Roman heavy infantry of countless Italian legions was constantly squeezing Appis's legionary defenses. The numerical superiority allowed Agrippa's legions to grow stronger and stronger, while Appis's Germanic legions fought and retreated with the old soldiers. Klein slashed the cheeks of the heavy infantry in front of him with a single sword, and when the opponent's blood was dripping, he stabbed him in the abdomen with another sword, and then stepped on the enemy's chest and pulled out the short sword. Keep fighting.

After blocking the assassination of the opposing soldiers, the centurion of the 7th Legion clenched his short sword and stabbed the enemy in the throat with a single sword. Although the opponent may be an orthodox Roman citizen. However, each is his own master, and can only fight and fight bloodily. Blood spurted from the shattered neck, but the living took the place of the dead warrior and continued to fight...... The ground was littered with broken internal organs and stumps, and thick blood flowed and almost converged into blood-colored streams.

There are always a lot of recruits in a legion, and although the veterans are used to such a scene, the recruits of those legions are squatting on the ground, screaming and crying in horror.

On the front with the most dense number of soldiers, the soldiers had almost no way to reach out and make a blocking move, and all of them huddled together, bloody fighting, countless short swords pierced into the flesh*, making a snorting and stabbing sound. Then it released the blood from the shattered body as if it were bloodletting.

"Courage and glory! Follow me and rush again! ”

Then, just when the legion phalanx led by Crane and Levius was almost unable to hold out, the Germanic cavalry led by Apis launched a fierce charge from the rear of Agrippa's legion.

This time, no one survived the charge and trampling of the hoplites. Countless Roman hoplites were knocked out and knocked out. The bodies were devastated and trampled, and the Germanic cavalry was no longer a complete corpse under the hooves, but a pile of rotten flesh and blood. The horses neighed and leaped high, the knights on horseback brandished their swords and cut off the arms of the infantry under their horses, while the Roman hoplites stabbed the Germanic cavalry off their horses with heavy javelins.

But Appis didn't let the bloody fight last long, and soon, the horn of retreat sounded loudly. The Germanic cavalry, trapped in the crowd, began to retreat, and after trying to pull away, charged again...... Repeatedly assault the crowds of Roman legionnaires' infantry.

After Appis's Germanic cavalry withdrew from the battlefield, a bloody morgue appeared in the place where he had just charged...... The trampled corpses lay on the battlefield, demonstrating the terrifying power of these heavy cavalry charges.

In fact, after the first charge, many Italian heavy infantry were already terrified of the horns of the Germanic cavalry, and the sense of glory under the scorching sun and the shame of fleeing in full view of everyone made the Roman soldiers dare not withdraw. Then, while everyone was panicking, the loud trumpet of the charge sounded again from the rear of the battlefield in the wilderness, and this time, the Germanic cavalry of the wedge-shaped assault rushed desperately, bound to completely crush the Italian heavy infantry phalanx.

More than 2,000 Germanic cavalry roared and charged, the ground was swept up with dust, and in the sun, countless Germanic riders took off their helmets, held their battle axes and swords, like a heavy hammer, and smashed into the rock-solid Roman heavy infantry line.

In the next moment, even though many of the Italian legionnaires had already turned their heads, facing the direction of the cavalry charge, they half-crouched to resist the cavalry charge. However, under the charge of the powerful Germanic cavalry, the flesh and blood of the Roman soldiers were once again smashed to pieces by the impact of the powerful war horses, and the Roman hoplites who were caught in the crowd had no choice at all, they could only use their large shields against their chests, hoping for Mars's blessing. But the gods didn't show up on the battlefield after all......
