"Obey me."

The barbarian soldiers of the Ebronis and other tribes poured in from the forest on the opposite side like a torrent, and Rabienus and Appis stood in the center of the legion, directing the most central force of the legion to resist the barbarian onslaught.

Rabienus raised his short sword, and on the front line, hundreds of Roman hundreds, lined up in a straight line, and the battle line stretched for several miles. Each Roman centurion had a whistle in his mouth, waiting for the barbarians to come within range of the heavy javelin.

It was a weapon used by the Roman legions to conquer enemy states, and the heavy javelin was projected at close range to inflict devastating damage. The tactics of the Roman legions in history were to throw a round of javelins before the battle, and the rain of javelins was not only to kill the enemy soldiers, but also to inflict a serious psychological blow on the enemy. You can imagine that there are dense javelins more than a meter long, and no matter how strong the psychological quality is, under such a blow, they will also have a psychological breakdown. At this time, the legion seized the opportunity to advance frontally, which was the regular tactic of the Roman legions. Now, unsurprisingly, it has been applied to the war against the barbarians.

……

"It's now, projection!"

As soon as the barbarians were within range, Rabienus gave the order to attack from a distance. At one time, on the front, hundreds of Roman centurions almost simultaneously blew the whistle for throwing javelins.

At this moment, thousands of Roman heavy javelins were thrown from the hands of Roman soldiers.

It was a hellish scene as the barbarian soldiers who rushed to the front rows fell in a rain of javelins, their bodies pierced by the Roman javelins, blood splattered and screams poured out.

However, the horrific and bloody scene did not stop the barbarian soldiers in the back row, they lost their minds like bloodthirsty beasts, and in the roar of the barbarian leader, the Celtic warriors and Germanic infantry in the back row frantically poured into the Roman position.

They trampled on the corpses of their companions, their feet covered with bloody entrails. Rabienus shouted, and the legion immediately took up a defensive formation.

The legionnaires connected their shields closely, and the rear infantry pressed against the backs of their teammates in front, and countless shields joined each other to form an airtight shield wall. The Legion's dagger stretched out from between the gaps in these dense shields, and the next moment, the bloodthirsty and crazy barbarians rushed up......

"Steady!"

Rabienus shouted, the Roman legionnaires beside him were under the onslaught of several times their own strength, the barbarians were so strong that the first line of defense of the legions was almost immediately broken, the first row of legionary infantry was knocked down, the barbarians raised their big axes, and their two-handed swords were frantically cut down. The legionnaires fell prey to the beast in fear, the prey to fall in pools of blood.

However, the legionary line of the second row held off the barbarians' onslaught.

"They are wild beasts, and Rome will win! Hold your ground, soldiers! ”

The bloody head-to-head confrontation had begun, Rabienus raised his sword and shouted, as the commander of the Tenth Legion, Rabienus took the lead and fought with the soldiers at the forefront, his every movement was so crisp and neat, and the barbarian soldiers continued to fall under the sword of this powerful Roman commander, and the gorgeous Roman short sword was even stained with the blood and internal organs of the barbarians.

Appis stood in the center of the 10th Legion, a position only a few dozen paces away from Labienus, where the Legion's Eagle Banner stood firmly in place under the support of the veterans of a hundred battles, symbolizing the undefeated Legion and the eternal spirit of the army. The barbarians were somewhat more numerous than the soldiers had imagined, and they rushed in such a dense manner that there was no room for even two-handed swords to slash.

Apis snatched the shield of a legion infantry beside him, and in the next second, the barbarian's battle axe fell, and the "Son of the Gods' Protection" raised his battle shield to block this barbaric surprise attack with all his might, and while the opponent was still not firm, Apis sent the short sword into the opponent's abdomen...... In an instant, the barbarian's blood wrapped the sharp Roman short sword, and Apis brutally cut open the barbarian's internal organs, although he didn't know which part of the barbarian he had cut, but Appis knew that the barbarian in front of him must be dead.

The battlefield is so bloody and cruel that it is inhumane.

While the phalanx in the center of the legion was fighting with the barbarians, the cavalry troops led by Anthony began to feint forward to attack the flank of the barbarian coalition.

Under the repeated onslaught of the Roman and Gallic cavalry, the Germanic cavalry began to show signs of unrest. They were a savage and bloodthirsty people, and most of the Germanic cavalry had reached the point where they could not bear the bloody provocation of the enemy, and although Pirno had not yet given the order for the cavalry to attack, these Germanic cavalry charged and charged towards Caesar's cavalry.

In order to make the defeat more like, Antony commanded the cavalry of the legion and met it in the direction of the Germanic cavalry, and the entire flank of the battlefield suddenly presented a shocking picture, with the Roman cavalry group and the Germanic cavalry colliding together.

In the era of cold weapons, the cavalry charge was powerful, and the hedge between the cavalry was even more terrifying, in the era without stirrups, once they collided together, the rider could hardly sit firmly on the horse. As a result, the Roman cavalry and the Germanic cavalry who were rushing into each other soon fell off their horses, and the fierce cavalry battle caused Pirneau to focus all his attention on the flanks of the battlefield.

"Retreat!"

After a few moments of hand-to-hand combat with the Germanic cavalry, Antony roared loudly. All the Romans, the Gallic cavalry, under the command of their own commanders, began to retreat, or even disperse. Just as Antony chose to attack the Germanic cavalry in real terms, resulting in the loss of half of the legionary cavalry and the Gallic mercenary cavalry, Antony's retreat turned into a real defeat, however, such a scene also made the Germans even more convinced that the Roman cavalry had been defeated, they had no morale, no combat effectiveness, and only cared about fleeing for their lives.

The beastly desire to hunt led the Germanic cavalry to ignore Pirno's orders and continue to pursue the Roman legion's cavalry. Thousands of Germanic cavalry rushed towards the fleeing Roman cavalry like bloodthirsty beasts, undisciplined and unformed.

And in the grass, thousands of elite Roman infantry were already impatient, their spears thirsting for blood, their short swords eager to cut the flesh of the enemy, pierce the internal organs of the barbarians, and end the lives of these beasts!
