Chapter 1228: Persian cavalry
Five days, in the eyes of the Persian king, really lived a long life.
He went to invite Gao Shun to fight together again and again, but was rejected. The reason was that the Romans had already prevented and controlled the Iron Armored Battalion.
Originally, the people of the Central Plains came to assist in the war, and the Iron Armored Battalion did not go out to fight, which once made Alexander angry!
Thinking that the plan he was about to implement needed the assistance of the Suzaku Legion, Alexander had to suppress his anger back.
After five days, Alexander couldn't wait to pull his army onto the battlefield, lined up in front of the Romans' defense line, and was quite powerful.
Diocletian didn't understand why the Persians were going to attack again so quickly. Based on the information they found out by their scouts, the Persians only recovered some vitality, and the combatants were not replenished!
In order to resist the attacks of the Persians and the Central Plains, Diocletian built a solid line of defense. The steel monsters in the Central Plains and the Romans also found some means to deal with them.
For example, the previous trenches have achieved considerable results.
A chariot cannot cross wide and deep trenches, and it takes time to fill the ravines. If the chariot is in a state of stopping, there will be no threat at all.
In the defense line, the Romans were on high alert, waiting for the Persians' attack!
Because of the existence of the Vermilion Bird Legion, the Romans did not dare to go too far. They were unwilling to withstand the bombardment of the earth and the mountains again.
As long as the Persians rushed over, they would immediately rush up and fight with them!
When both sides were entangled once, the artillery fire of the Suzaku Legion would not pour out at will!
However, the Romans were wrong!
It’s not that they don’t move, the Persians will move!
...
...
Alexander looked back and saw that the agreed time had almost come. Before Suzaku's cannon could sound, he was worried that he would go to war.
boom!
A cannon sounded!
The shells fell in front of the Roman defense line, and the smoke dissipated, leaving a deep pit!
This shell was used for distance measurement, and the landing point was a few meters away from the target position!
"Be careful! The Central Plains people are attacking!" Diocletian shouted.
After hearing the loud noise, the Roman soldiers immediately looked for cover to hide nearby! They had no good way to defend against long-range strikes like the Suzaku Legion.
The Roman soldiers could only pray to heaven, praying that the shells would not fall beside them!
boom!
Another loud bang!
This time, the shell landing point moved forward about two feet, and a deep pit was also blown up on the ground!
"Okay! Keep fighting for me! You can hit the Romans' defense with one shot!"
Alexander, the king of Persia, said excitedly.
Boom! Boom! Boom...
In response to Alexander's words, the artillery fire of the Vermilion Bird Legion continued to rise! It directly covered the Romans' defense line.
Many Roman soldiers were included in fireworks, and they didn’t know their life or death!
Diocletian felt the constant shaking of the ground, and his heart was bitter!
He could only watch his soldiers struggling in the artillery fire and helplessly. Diocletian was originally very confident in his abilities.
He merged East and West Rome into one with his own strength, and the Roman Empire had hope of recovery!
But since he met the Central Plains people, his confidence has been hit again and again. He has not failed for a long time and has never taken advantage of him in the fight with the Central Plains people.
The earth stopped shaking, the cannons stopped roaring, and a long gap was blown out of the defense line built by the Romans!
The smoke of gunpowder dissipated, and the Persians had rushed to the gap and chopped them when they saw them...
"The sound of cannons has stopped. The soldiers of the Roman Empire, block the gap and defeat the Persians!" Diocletian stood up and shouted with all his strength!
The Roman phalanx was launched and steadily rushed towards the raging Persians! However, the Persians did not want to fight them!
As the Persians rushed into the gap from outside, the Persians rushed into both sides. In order to block the Persians, the Roman soldiers had to divide their troops to block the interception.
It was at this moment that the horse's hooves roared outside the defense line...
Diocletian wanted to order the spear formation to stop the Persian cavalry, but unfortunately the time was too late!
From the rapid sound of horse hooves, it can be heard that the Persian cavalry came prepared! In just a few breaths, the Persian cavalry poured in from the gap and rushed away the Romans who had not yet gathered into a formation!
The Persian cavalry, who could have killed a lot, did not choose to take action under such a good opportunity! They didn't even look at the shocked Romans, and just rode their horses and whipped them into them!
"This is?"
Diocletian couldn't analyze the Persians' intentions at once, and could only command the army to resist the crazy attacks of the Persians!
"Your Majesty! The barbaric cavalry are rushing into our Rome. If you don't care about them, you will probably have a big mess!"
A Roman general said anxiously.
"General Solo, I order you now to take your people to catch up with the Persian cavalry and wipe them out and Bue Rome." Diocletian's face turned pale.
How could Solo see, he didn't understand! It was just a frontal battlefield and he could not leave, otherwise he would lead his troops to destroy the Persian cavalry.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, Solo will not let go of the barbaric Persians!" Solo hit his chest with his right hand, and made a promise to his king Diocletian with the unique etiquette of the Roman soldiers!
"Go quickly and don't let them cause too much damage!" Diocletian said.
"Yes!" Soro ordered his cavalry and followed the Persian cavalry and chased after him!
A contest between cavalry officially began at this moment.
...
...
Outside the defense line, the Persians sent cavalry into the Romans, reducing the intensity of the attack.
For them, as long as the cavalry enters, they will succeed!
"Docletian, your cavalry is a little worse than mine! When Persian cavalry is upside down inside Rome, you will know the power of Persian cavalry!"
Alexander was very confident in his cavalry! Because cavalry has always been the Persians attached great importance to their powerful troops.
The Persian army's offensive strength was weak, and Diocletian took the opportunity to increase the investment of the sergeants and drove the Persians out of the defense line.
One hour later, the defense line was recaptured by the Romans, and the Persians achieved their goal, and Alexander immediately ordered the retreat.
Such a slash-and-cut attack made Diocletian a little uncomfortable! Under normal circumstances, Alexander and him would not easily retreat without distinguishing themselves from each other.
...
...
At night, Alexander held a celebration banquet and invited Dongfang Qiang and the other two.
"General Eastern, your artillery fire directly blasted the Romans' strong defense line. Diocle couldn't defend himself first, but he wanted to defend himself. Here, I want to thank you!"
Alexander picked up the wine cup.
He was shocked once to see the power of the Suzaku Legion!
"You are polite to the Persian King. According to the will of His Majesty, your army needs it and can help you, I will not refuse."
Dongfang Qiangdao.
