Butters frowned, his expression moved, "Karen Sa wants to flee south!" Give the order to go down and assemble the whole army! ”

At this moment, a large army poured out of the south gate of Altashat and headed straight south, including the banner of Karen Sa. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Moments later, the situation was reported to Buster⊥ who did not hesitate to order the army to attack.

Buster led an army of 70,000 men around Artashat and caught up with Kerensa's army half an hour later.

By this time, Karensa's army was already in formation.

"General, they seem to be prepared?" One of the generals said to Bastet suspiciously.

Buster said indifferently: "After all, Karen Sa was once an imperial general, so it is not surprising that he lined up before our army launched a surprise attack!" ”

When the general heard this, he was relieved.

Baster rode between the two armies and shouted, "Governor Karensa, you were also a great general of the Empire, why did you rebel? If you come back to Rome with me to plead for your sins, His Majesty the Emperor will forgive you for your sins!" ”

Moments later, a general, dressed in traditional Roman heavy armor, rode out of the army and stopped in front of the army

Ma, said in an arrogant tone: "You should be Yusuf's subordinate general Bastet, right?" ”

"Not bad!"

"Just because you're not qualified to say that to me!"

Buster couldn't help but be a little annoyed, suppressed his anger, and raised his voice: "Governor Karensa, I advise you to surrender!" ”

Glancing at the military array behind Karen Sa, "You should know that they can't stop the 70,000 imperial army under my command at all!" ”

Quan Bai Salem snorted, "You can give it a try!" Then he threw his horse back into the ranks.

Buster snorted coldly, and turned his horse's head back to his own formation.

"General?" A subordinate general clenched his fists and asked.

Buster looked at the other party's military formation and said coldly: "Since they want to die, then I will fulfill them!" The 19th Army Corps' front, left, and right battalions were ordered to attack the enemy's central army, the 20th Army Corps' left battalion was ordered to attack the enemy's left flank, the right battalion and the middle battalion attacked the enemy's right flank, and the 19th Corps' middle and rear battalions were on standby! ”

"Yes!"

Knock knock!

The drums of war characteristic of the Roman army rang out. The 50,000 Roman troops pressed towards the Kerensa army in three directions, the left, the center and the right, the speed was not fast, but the formation was extremely rigorous, like a moving mountain, and the momentum was awe-inspiring.

This is different from the Wei army, which pays more attention to speed when attacking, so the Wei army is more scattered when charging!

The first to engage were the archers of both sides, and they saw that the rain of arrows on both sides was staggered, and people were constantly nailed to the ground by arrows.

In such an encounter, the Romans did not seem to have taken advantage of anything. However, Karen Sa's brow furrowed, and he knew deeply that once he was a Roman general, once he had a hand-to-hand fight, his side would not be as easy as it was now.

Moments later, the three assault forces of the Roman army, left, center, and right, crashed into the line of the Karen army.

The fierceness of the Roman army was finally revealed at this time, only to see that the Roman soldiers first smashed into the opponent's line with the overall quantity, and then leaked into the melee like a torrent, and in just two quarters of an hour, the two originally very strong defensive lines in front of the Chinese army of Karen Sa's army were breached, and the left and right flanks had collapsed grips.

"Your Excellency, the regular Roman army is really powerful! We can't stand it anymore! A general rushed to Karen Sa to report.

Karen said in a deep voice: "If you can't stand it, you have to top it!" Otherwise, we will all die without a place to bury! ”

He pulled out his sword at his waist and shouted, "Soldiers, for the sake of freedom, kill!" ”

Riding a horse and charging into the warband. The soldiers who were struggling to resist saw this. I couldn't help but rekindle my fighting spirit, shouting and fighting desperately with the Roman army.

For a while, the originally shaky front was stabilized.

However, the absolute gap in combat effectiveness could not be made up by a moment of courage, and after two quarters of an hour, the Karensa line began to be slowly pressed back by the Roman army. The situation was unusually unfavorable for Karen Sa.

Buster said proudly: "Order the barracks and rear battalions of the Nineteenth Army to move back behind the enemy and launch a final attack!" ”

"Yes!" The general Hong Sheng agreed, looking very excited.

However, at this moment, there was a sharp whistling sound in the air, and then I saw fireballs and pillars of smoke rising into the sky where Buster was, and the huge roar was deafening.

Butters and the 20,000 men in the 19th Barracks and the Rear Battalion were blinded by this sudden blow!

Without waiting for the Roman army to react, I saw nearly 100,000 troops rushing over from the east, west, and north.

It turned out that Karensa's previous plan was to lead 100,000 troops out of the city to lure the Roman army to attack first, and then when the Roman army attacked his own army with all his might, the other 100,000 troops attacked from behind.

This was actually an all-or-nothing strategy, because if the plan failed, the Roman army could take advantage of the situation and attack the city, so that Karensa would have it.

Butters was taken aback and hurriedly ordered the barracks and rear battalions of the 19th Army to line up, but under the bombardment of the other side, the 20,000 soldiers of the 19th Army could not calmly line up at all.

The artillery fire stopped abruptly, and almost at the same time, hundreds of thousands of Karen Sa's troops slammed into the unformed line of the Nineteenth Army like a crashing wave.

After a chaotic battle, the 20,000 Roman army was completely dispersed by nearly 100,000 Karensa's army.

Some of the Romans lost the will to fight and subconsciously fled to places where there were few enemy troops, while the other part of the Romans still resisted desperately.

At the same time, the 50,000 Roman troops who attacked Karensa did not panic.

Karen Sa took the opportunity to launch a counterattack, and nearly 100,000 troops routed the frontal Roman army in one go.

The Roman army is completely in disarray! Resist in the opponent's heavy sea of soldiers! Others threw away their armor and fled in a hurry! The morale of the Karen army was high, and they relentlessly pursued the fleeing Roman army.

An hour later, the mortally wounded Butters fled with only 500 cavalry back to the departure camp, which was five miles north of Artasart.

The remaining 70,000 troops were basically wiped out by Karen Sa! More than 40,000 of them were killed, and nearly 30,000 were captured!

Butters came to his senses, glanced around, grabbed the placket of the general in front of him, and asked urgently, "How is our army?" ”

The general said sadly: "It's over! It's all over! Only 500 of us broke through! ”

Butters can't help but scream a mouthful of blood. Several generals around were taken aback when they saw this, and shouted urgently: "General! ”

Butters breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Where is this?" ”

'This is our barracks!' , a subordinate general returned to the court.

Butters shook his head and said, "No! We can't stay here! Karen Sa will definitely sweep this place, leave immediately! (To be continued.) )
