Chapter 126: The Big Fish Flees Fiercely

Chang'an wants to complain, don't you set up an ambush or something? It's too late to dig a hole or something, but there's always time to set up a trip.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, Chang'an slowly retreated, quietly going around to the woods next to him, but unfortunately this forest is not a necessary place, otherwise it is an excellent place to set up an ambush.

After a while, Chang'an returned and briefly discussed with Serbas, who hesitated but agreed to Chang'an's proposal, if the pursuers were not fooled, it would be a big deal for them to catch up.

Eleven people quietly retreated into the woods, and then lit a bonfire in the woods, spoke loudly, and deliberately made a lot of noise,

The cavalry, who had already been chasing, was really attracted, and immediately turned close to the woods, dismounted and flanked the middle.

They were originally here to arrest fugitive slaves, but they didn't expect to catch up so quickly, and they were indeed a group of low-level pariahs with developed limbs and no brains.

The slave fighters took advantage of the darkness to silently harvest the lives of the knights, and an hour later, all a hundred cavalrymen died in the woods.

One hundred war horses were collected, and the results were abundant, Chang'an was a little worried, how to transport a hundred horses and eleven people? Isn't everyone else worried about that?

Several men chose their horses and rode them forward, and it was strange that the other horses obediently followed behind.

Looking at the horse that Serbas was riding, it was a little different from the equipment of the other horses, was it the 'head horse'? Or is this the quality of a war horse?

After joining Grace, Serbas led the fugitive slaves on Mount Vesuvius.

On the way, they were again confronted by the Roman army that was attacking them, and the Serbas took the lead and fought with the soldiers, who fought valiantly and severely dealt a blow to the Roman aristocratic army.

The rebels fought back against the regular Roman army countless times along the way, attracting a large number of fugitive slaves, gladiators, and some bankrupt freedmen in the vicinity, and even soldiers who had escaped from the Roman legions.

They actively joined the rebel army of the Serbas, and by the time they reached Mount Vesuvius, the rebel army of the Serbas had reached 10,000 men.

The Serbas reorganized the rebel army, modeled after the army, with cavalry regiments, infantry regiments, as well as scouts, signal troops, and baggage units, as well as long-range grenadiers, and strict training of soldiers, all under militarized management.

Grace and Enomais became Selbas's powerful right-hand men, helping him manage the army, and Enix, because of his young age, basically followed Grace as a deputy.

When Selbas wanted to arrange a suitable military position for Chang'an, Chang'an showed the usual cowardly expression on Morris's face before, which made Selbas really wonder if Morris, who angrily slashed the white shark and destroyed the baggage room, and the person in front of him were two people?

Selbas thought to himself that this young man was younger than Ennix and really needed to be honed. In the end, Selbas put Chang'an and the old man Geya in the same category, accompanying the logistics personnel, and the class of troops was to be determined.

When he fled from the Baksha training center, everyone tried to persuade the old man Geya to go with him, but the stubborn old man refused to leave without dragging everyone down.

Selbas made a quick decision, and one of them walked up and down with his palms, picked up the old man and ran, while saying, "We need a doctor!" ”

As a result, the old man became an accompanying military doctor, and although he was slow to move because of his legs and feet, the rebel soldiers were finally able to receive timely medical treatment after being injured.

The rebels grew in strength, but the supply of weapons was clearly insufficient, and they had to learn to build their own weapons in addition to robbing the Roman soldiers.

The cold weapons of this period were quite single, and the battle was basically a slash, which was completely a contest of strength and force, and then there was the advantage of the largest number.

Chang'an found the blacksmith who made the weapon, and after some communication, he made some modifications to the weapons of the grenadiers to make longer spears.

Originally, I wanted to make some more iron arrowheads, but I had limited resources and had to give up.

"I heard you had the craftsman transform the throwing weapon?" Serbas's voice rang out in the back.

Chang An put down the branch in his hand and stood up, the resources were already limited, and if he transformed the weapon at will, someone would naturally report it to his superiors.

"Yes, I think the modified weapon will be easier to fight."

Selbas frowned, "The increase in the length of the throwing weapon will not bring more damage, but will increase the consumption of weapon resources, and we need a lot of metal ore to forge iron." ”

"I know that the modified spear is not for throwing, and if the spear and the short soldier are used together, then the combat effect will be much better." Chang'an explained.

As he spoke, he gave a brief demonstration of the coordination between spears and short soldiers.

Selbas pondered for a moment, his face beaming, worthy of a good leader, not only good at listening to favorable opinions, but also quickly figuring out the principles of what happened.

Chang'an simply came up with his own ideas, such as the transformation of the cavalry, adding horse shoes to the saddle, and with some strength, the combat ability of the cavalry on horseback will be greatly strengthened, and it will become a veritable cavalry combat regiment.

There is also the equipment of weapons, and the attack power of the short knife is stronger than the slashing performance of the sword, and the strength of the stab and the slash are naturally fundamentally different.

"Also, regarding the weapons of the grenadiers, I think I have a better proposal...... You come with me! "Chang'an is not good at making weapons, so he broke a branch and pulled a vine to make the simplest bow and arrow, but failed!

Selbas watched quietly on the side, not interrupting Chang'an's toss, and tried several times to fail, so he had no choice but to take a shortcut.

"You wait here for me, come back right away!"

Chang'an ran through the bushes next to him, pretending to be from the bushes, but actually redeemed a bow and arrow from the points mall, one bow and ten arrows, 10 points.

"What is this?" Do men have a natural preference for weapons, Serbas asked with great interest when he saw the strange weapon that Chang'an took out.

Chang'an didn't answer, but instead pointed to a big tree a hundred meters away, "Standing here, how can you attack that tree?" “

Selbas stared at the tree in the distance and shook his head, "It's too far to throw a weapon, and it's hard for the most powerful warriors to do it." “

Chang An smiled and raised the longbow in his hand, the maximum range of this kind of bow is one hundred and fifty meters, with the blessing of his strength, two hundred meters should not be a problem, and the big tree is only more than a hundred meters away from him, and it is absolutely trivial to shoot.

The sharp arrows on the bowstring flew towards the tree in the distance with a whistling wind, and the trunk of the tree was hit with a "bang", the branches swayed, and the "click" tree pole broke in the middle, and fell to the ground with a "bang".

The loud noise caused the warriors, who did not know the truth, to quickly get closer and quieter, and when they found that only a big tree had fallen, they breathed a sigh of relief, withdrew their weapons, and pointed to the big tree that had fallen on the side.

Selbas looked at the longbow in Chang'an's hand in surprise, if this weapon was used on the battlefield, how lethal it would be!
