Rabinus put on his helmet and, surrounded by the guards, rushed to the two stadias from the old coastal camp to watch the battle.

Rabinus was familiar with the old battalion, for it was the men of the Twelfth Legion, as could be seen from the shield insignia, and they also raised the iconic banner of the Balantian Falcon, and these soldiers were extremely fierce in front of the wooden fence embedded with iron nails, resisting the siege of their own subordinates, and coincidentally, the four brigades attacking the old battalion were Caesar's old soldiers who had surrendered with Antony's brother Gaius, and it seemed that this was another fratricidal battle of former comrades.

Many of the attacking troops were tied with thin firecrackers and wicker on the eaves of their helmets, which was a new invention of Rabinus in advance, in order to reduce the damage of the soldiers being stoned in the attack on Caesar's camp, and now it has also become the basis for determining the identity of the two armies. At this time, Rabinus realized that the fruits of victory might be plucked by Li Bida, who rushed out of the shadows, and he was instantly dominated by angry feelings, gritted his teeth and said, "Increase the number of men and horses attacking to eight brigades!" ”

On the other side, the men of Lelias were divided into two groups by the tributaries of the Gimmons River, and the one-eyed general saw that on the slope of the hill in front stood the foreign enemy whom he hated the most, and the banner of the other party, the immortal idol of the six legions taken from the city of Marcelia, and on the hillside were densely packed with about 3,000 infantry and archers, and the front had been lined up with improvised wooden stakes and stone throwers. and strange ballistas drawn by mule carts and horse-drawn carts. and a column of scorpion crossbows. It seems that it has been quite a period of protection.

"I can't resist not coming to the rescue of our allies, but instead occupy the position first, is it preparing to prevent us from expanding the results of the war, this bastard named Libidaeus, but he is really calm." Lylias thought secretly, so he ordered all the soldiers to continue to maintain formation and chase the defeated soldiers of the other side. "Let the defeated army disrupt the enemy's position on that side of the hill."

Thus the soldiers of the two legions, who had lost their armor and unarmoured, poured out a cry of pleading and poured like a tidal wave from the position of the Sixth Legion towards Libida, so that all the soldiers from Sardinia turned their heads in unison and looked at the acting commander-in-chief with embarrassment, hoping that he would give instructions on how to deal with the situation.

"Once the positions of the army, the deer barricades, and the battle lines have been formed, anyone who appears in front of them is to be treated as an enemy. I don't need to say much about it at all! Li Bida's expression was stern, and then he held the baton. There was a heavy knock down, and then the trumpeter next to him immediately sounded the horn of the shot.

Scorpion crossbows, cavalry cannons, stone throwers, and archers with the front of the deer all poured out their weapons at the same time, and as a result, the defeated soldiers were overturned at once, and the rest no longer dared to wail, but crawled and scattered in the direction of both sides of Li Bida's position and fled without his life. In this way, the shooting range of Rilias's department was cleared in a short time, and the second round was directed at them.

This kind of firepower is something that Lelias has not seen before, and in his concept, a legion of the Republic has fifty-five scorpion crossbows, four stone throwers and ten ballistas, which are standard. However, Li Bida obviously broke through the limitation of the establishment of a single corps, and concentrated all the artillery detachments directly under each legion, as well as the light firepower of each hundred-man team, and placed them here in the Sixth Legion, that is, one hundred and twenty scorpion crossbows, twelve stone throwers, and no less than twenty cavalry cannons, all of which were fired in unison.

Therefore, Rilius saw that the two brigades he had placed in the front pursuit, in a very short time, had been dealt a devastating blow, and at this time, the enemy's six legions began to cheer collectively, and broke out into a mocking shout, "Let the next victory and defeat determine who is the hunter and who is the prey today!" ”

"Damn!" Just as Lelias was about to withdraw his team and readjust the offensive, many people suddenly appeared on the ridgeline of the vertical ridge on his right flank, which was the fifteenth legion, and the dark-skinned Nubian soldiers once again adopted the "six-in-one" bow shooting tactics, concentrating 800 archers on the ridge line, and arrows flew like hail, and the line of Lelias's right legion was also in chaos under such a blow.

"Withdraw the team!" Although Lelias was extremely brave in most cases, in the eyes of the philosophers of the time, bravery had always been the golden mean between cowardice and recklessness, so it was a merit and a virtue, so he still succeeded in avoiding recklessness, and demanded that the two groups on the left and right, each with several brigades, be safely withdrawn along the tributaries of the Guimons River, after all, it was a great achievement to break through Caesar's northern defense.

Unbeknownst to him, there was another hurried trumpet, Li Bida waved his gilded baton, and the light spear-bearing chariots in front of the Thirteenth Legion roared out, followed by the Mattia cavalry with bows and arrows, and then followed closely by the hoplites of the Thirteenth Legion.

Under the crushing of these three waves of iron and blood, the front of Lelias's left group also began to crumble, and the entire seashore was full of soldiers who were stirring up a mess, "biting the enemy to the death, not giving them a chance to breathe, and advancing forward regardless of a qiē." This was Li Bida's death order, and the soldiers of the three legions rushed down with shouts all over the mountains, but instead pursued the defeated troops of Lylias and killed them in their original positions.

At this time, the eight brigades commanded by Rabinus had already broken the two wooden barriers of the old battalion one after another after hard fighting, but Karenus still withdrew his men and horses to the original core camp and continued to resist.

"You ungrateful bastard, you have been Pompey's Creon for so many years, and the other party has ever had the slightest favor? It was Caesar who promoted you to the rank of chief lieutenant, and it was General Li Bida who protected your hometown of Jingulum in the midst of the war, and now you have finally extended your butcher's knife to your benefactor. Behind the wooden wall of the small camp, Karanus held on to his injured wrist and did not forget to angrily rebuke Rabinus, who was an upright soldier, and how much he used to respect Rabinus, and how much he hated him now.

"Rabinus, despicable villain!" The combatants of the Chief Brigade of the Twelfth Legion, as well as the wounded soldiers, shouted such slogans in the small battalion, and frantically tore down the walls, and then smashed them down.

Hearing such an angry rebuke, Rabinus still had a low face, and Hu Congjian next to him said, "There is only this small piece of camp left in the camp that the enemy is holding, so it is better to fence it up, shoot cork rockets, and burn them all to death." ”

But Rabinus did not reply in time, until he received a crushing defeat for Lelias in front of him, and three legions of Lybida had arrived, he only said lightly, "It's too late." The same order was given to retreat. (To be continued......)
