This word silenced Hebrida, and he had to admit that Faobinus's guess had some truth, but now the first choice was to conquer this cliff fortress that blocked Antony's retreat first, or to quickly reinforce Antony, with Hebrida's temperament, he asked like this, "Faobinas Greeks, hand over your chief brigade of the Cyrene legion, I will select a wing in each of the two thousand teams, and the auxiliary brigade will follow behind, and go to climb and conquer this fortress, Kill all the circumcised guys inside, and then we'll clear the way here and go to meet Your Excellency the Military Tribune. ”

"No, I'll just besiege here with my own brigade, the Hashhitis don't have enough troops left, it doesn't seem like David. The mistake that Ankit will make, you hurry up with the chief brigade of the Thirteenth Legion, and this auxiliary brigade, to reinforce Anthony. Apparently, Faobinas disagreed with Hybrida's arbitrariness, and said that perhaps there were Hashdi's elite soldiers moving around, and that they might be gathering here after receiving a signal from the Cliff Fortress.

So, I'm here to wait for the main force of General Peternius!

Just when the two were arguing, the mournful sound of the horn suddenly remembered, and it felt that the mountains around the entire river valley were shaking, and there were figures everywhere scurrying at the foot of the mountain and on the top of the mountain, this guy seemed to be no less than a few thousand people. Instinctively, Hebrida reached for the helmet on his belt and put it on his head, only to touch the freshly burned blood scab and tear off a piece of it, so painful that he almost curled up his back like an Egyptian cat.

The two brigades and one auxiliary brigade instantly leaned together and lined up along the riverbank, and the Hashhitis were exactly as Faobinas had expected. Kill from the valley in a steady stream. But they clearly lack effective organization. Or it was difficult for Pätiang to gather these large and complex temporary armies of herdsmen and craftsmen to charge in order, and he himself was a shepherd by origin, and had no formal training in the army, but only by bravery.

Over there, Heblida put the auxiliary brigade at the forefront, and the arrows were shot like a storm, and the army of believers who rushed in with religious fanaticism were shot to the ground in rows. As a result, after a day, the archers of the auxiliary brigade were so tired that they automatically retreated to the rear, and the infantry of the two brigades joined the battle line, "They seem to be all novices, and they are here to drain our energy!" "So you immediately take your brigade and attack on the other side of the cliff between the attacks, and I will contain them here." Otherwise, the hedgehogs will gather together and fall into the trap of these believers. ”

"Guys. Form a combat column, put your shield in your left hand, and follow me, don't lower your head, the other side is only throwing stones, not dung. "Haybrida walked at the front of the line, staring at the eye-catching scars, braving the rain of blows and holding shields, taking steady steps, leading his troops forward step by step, most of the hashhiti seemed to be frightened by the bows and arrows of the Nubians before, and stood on the edge of the cliff, throwing stones at Haybrida's brigade and bidding guns, but this light weapon could not cause substantial damage to the hoplites, so the Hybrida team was like a rolling wave, although occasionally stirred up some small waves, and soon broke through the barrier, Ran in the direction of Anthony's troops.

Faobinas was indeed a quick decision, because at this time Anthony was also ambushed and was in a state of embarrassment. The wooden boat team was the first to be killed, and the Hashid believers who were ambushed under the abandoned river embankment suddenly rushed out and threw out Miti oil and torches, and burned the two wooden boats that took the lead, and the fire stained the river red, and the soldiers on it screamed and turned over and went into the water with flames, all of them soared and sank to the bottom, and the boats behind could not advance, and the soldiers were nervous and circled around on the original water, and the believers who boarded the river embankment used projectile weapons to shoot, and there were many casualties. There was Anthony's attached cavalry brigade, which was running back and forth along the river bank in the same panic, not knowing what to do.

For a long time, the soldiers with dense throwing guns and arrows and shields on their backs, stepping on shallow water, cursing and dragging the sinking wooden boat ashore, and then set fire to it themselves to prevent being captured by the enemy - Li Bida's military discipline is very strict, and the soldiers who are killed and injured have additional pensions, and it is okay to be captured, and the legion pays the ransom for you, but if you escape from the battle, you will be executed, and you will also be executed if you discard your weapons, and this wooden boat is also classified as a weapon, so the soldiers will only destroy it with a fire to prevent them from being charged.

As soon as the two wings that had come ashore had joined up with Antony's cavalry brigade, a large brigade of Hashidi ambushes appeared on the west side of the river, and they formed a horizontal formation between the cliff and the riverbank, without any gap, and pressed over like a forest with their spears in their hands.

Anthony was a little frightened, but Junisonville was skilled, and shouted that all the cavalry dismounted and shot arrows, and the Vibichinas Hulala jumped off their horses, and also formed a horizontal team, and fired at the phalanx of Hashdi, and immediately the square team screamed because the spears were too densely arranged, and they fell down with a scream, and temporarily stopped because of the confusion of the formation, "Quickly retreat, there is an enemy outflanking on the cliff!" This time, Anthony's vision was much sharper, and he hurriedly asked all the soldiers to turn over and get on their horses, and the two wings of infantry served as the rearguard, frantically retreating to the rear, and constantly killing the Hashid believers in the mountain passes along the road. But the number of believers was too large and increasing, and even the small fleet of the fortress of Yazda began to be dispatched, and there was a great cooperation of land and water to outflank and annihilate Marco. Anthony's posture.

Eventually, many of the Vibichinas were killed and wounded, so the wolf rushed into a fortress abandoned by the Hashdi, but the cunning foreskin, in retreat, stripped the canals in the fortress and destroyed the walls, and Antony's cavalry brigade stood in the middle of the empty field, and two infantry companies formed a line of engagement in front.

In the midst of the smoke and dust, countless Hashdi believers continued to launch waves of strong attacks from all directions, their contact signals, some were Egyptian fork bells, some were Greek brass trumpets, and some used black tambourine, in short, the harsh sound was endless, the sun was obscured by the sound and sand waves, all the Romans were fighting alone, after suffering heavy losses, the infantry began to retreat without support, and the Vibichina people did not distinguish the target in the figure and the dust, anyway, they shot the arrows in their hands desperately, But the Hashidi archers on the opposite side also picked up their arrows and fired them back, and the sky was full of arrows, all falling towards the center of the abandoned fortress, and the wounded were concentrated in the middle, and many of them fell silently from the arrows, and blood began to flow all over the canals.
