At first, Zhang Ren did not recognize that this was the Fourth Eagle Legion of Rome. He just regarded it as a normal Roman barbarian army. Who makes the Fourth Eagle Legion so unique? It looks completely different from Roman citizens. Pure Indo-European race.
Coupled with the Yuan family's lack of intelligence and the mutual exclusion problems within Rome, Zhang Ren never thought that this was the Fourth Eagle Banner Corps. Of course, the most important point is that in the Yuan family's intelligence, the Fourth Eagle Banner Corps It was composed of a Scythian royal archer legion of 6,000 men and a Macedonian legion of 6,000 men.
This is a very important point. When the fight started, Zhang Ren preconceptionally thought that this was a mixed barbarian army from Rome. After everyone on the other side had gathered, Zhang Ren realized that this was actually the Fourth Eagle Banner Legion. However, Zhang Ren later realized that this was the Fourth Eagle Banner Corps. Will he tell his soldiers that this is the Fourth Eagle Legion of Rome? Of course not. At this time, of course, we must strategically despise our opponents!
Yes, we were fighting European barbarians, not Roman single-digit eagle flags. However, Zhang Ren, who knew a little bit, understood that this thing was the fourth eagle flag, so he decisively used the remaining two great destiny shots together. It is impossible to retreat, and Flash Gold Seraph Zhang Ren cannot be defeated.
The broad sword engraved with a large number of ancient texts directly slashed at Filippo. Thanks to the recovery of heaven and earth energy, and Rome's relaxation of the requirements for the individual strength of the legion commander, Filippo also successfully entered a new realm.
Otherwise, just Zhang Ren's hand, which was customized for him by his master and improved many times by his junior brother, and contained a large number of killing moves, would be enough to take Filippo away directly.
With a sword slashed out, Filippo dodged left and right, and finally managed to parry Zhang Ren's blow with his bowstring. However, this kind of confrontation was obviously not what Filippo was good at. In addition, Yuyang suddenly rode on Zhang Ren. Ren gave it a try and used the Double Destiny in a limited-time manner to increase the depth of his basic and talent mastery. His short-term explosive power directly exceeded the endurance limit of the Macedonian Army.
After all, the previous test has made Zhang Ren understand that if you can't penetrate the infantry defense line of the Fourth Eagle Flag in a short time, you can only choose to kill it all.
The problem is, if you are fighting against a Macedonian army with a long-range archer army that has a high probability of damaging even the top shield guards, maybe if you don't kill all the Macedonian army, the other side's archers will have already killed you, so the persistence Strengthening is meaningless to Zhang Ren.
Suppressing the blessing time of destiny to the limit that Zhang Ren can suppress, maximizing his personal quality and talent control ability, making Yuyang suddenly ride on Zhang Ren's angel, and start galloping recklessly, hard top With the Scythian archer legion, they penetrated the Macedonian elite defense line.
This scene was extremely shocking to Filippo. It was so shocking that Filippo couldn't even react on how to deal with the Han army. Zhang Ren rushed in front of him, asked him a question, and rewarded him with a sword. By the way, A gash was opened in his chest and abdomen.
This shocking combat power made Filippo shaken for the first time. Even though the eagle flag of the Fourth Eagle Flag Corps had not yet been activated, Filippo was really shaken in the face of Zhang Ren's cold and majestic questioning. The roar of the weak on the battlefield can only get ridicule, but the questioning of the strong on the battlefield is enough to arouse people's doubts.
Under Zhang Ren's cold eyes, Filippo naturally thought about a question. What made him think that he could win such a legion that penetrated the Macedonian defense line in an instant and then rushed into the core of the formation to kill? opponent.
The desperate counterattack did not cause much damage to the Yuyang Assault Cavalry. It is true that the Scythian Legion is very strong, but after the Archer Legion and the Cavalry Legion confront each other, the Archer Legion will always lose, even if the Archers are Really counter the cavalry.
But this kind of restraint will only lead to death after the cavalry rushes in, unless your archers can turn into something like Danyang on the spot.
Because the distance has reached this level, the archers' last resort is to strike with a short knife or a bow and arrow close to the face. The former is equivalent to losing a person's head, while the latter may be exchanged for one.
The problem is that archers are an organized combat corps. Only when they are large enough and dense enough can they have the greatest effect. After the cavalry rushes in, the archers will attack the opponent in a direct manner and kill the opponent. It's still enough to cause a lot of damage.
After the more important face-to-face contact, the archer's most important field of vision is gone.
Therefore, they are obviously the top archers in the world. After the Yuyang Assault Cavalry relied on a lot of sacrifices to forcefully cross the Macedonian defense line, the situation on the battlefield collapsed instantly. The Yuyang Assault Cavalry led by Zhang Ren completely demonstrated what harvesting is.
The spear thrust straight, and a piece of vacuum gun penetrated directly. Even if the Scythian archers had enough training to fight back desperately in this situation, the talents and specializations of both sides were two different things. Yuyang suddenly rode and killed Scythian archers, just like the harvest.
"Archers retreat! Hang upside down from the direction of Macedonia!" Filippo covered the wound with one hand and looked at Zhang Ren who stood there for no reason and stopped taking action. He just looked at Zhang Ren, whose soldiers were running around in all directions, and ordered loudly.
The order was executed very quickly, the eagle flag bloomed, and the archers on the side and rear relied on metaphysical shooting to suppress the Yuyang Cavalry. The Macedonian elites on the side came to the rescue immediately, and successfully killed nearly a thousand Yuyang Cavalry. After the Scythian archers, they blocked the Yuyang cavalry.
However, what happened next was a complete replica of what happened before. Deng Xian and Leng Bao completely understood the thinking mode of their own commander Zhang Ren, completely ignored the high-density arrow rain attack reorganized by the Scythian archers behind Macedonia, and once again stormed Macedonia. The battle line, after paying three hundred casualties, directly crossed the battle line and once again rushed into the organized Scythian shooters.
Filippo, who was covering his wound at this moment, was confused. He could not understand how the Yuyang Cavalry crossed the Macedonian front in such a large scale. Even if this legion could not be called the Wall of Sighs, it was an absolute solid wall. As a result, in front of him When attacking Yuyang, the enemy broke through the battle line again and again.
It was another wave of heavy losses. After fighting for so many years, even when facing the three talented wolf cavalry led by Zhang Liao, Filippo never suffered such heavy losses. However, when facing Zhang Ren, he suffered because of repeated attacks. He made a mistake in judgment and was slashed by Yuyang Tuqi like he was mowing grass.
"Retreat!" Filippo wanted to try again, but the previous two losses totaling nearly 1,600 made Filippo really dare not bet on what would happen if the Macedonian front was crossed by Zhang Ren again.
After all, the Archer Legion is an organized strike corps. With the size of the Scythian Royal Archers, when facing such an opponent, once the organization is severely damaged, the entire Fourth Eagle Banner Legion may be overrun by this unknown Han army. The group is destroyed.
Therefore, although Filippo felt extremely sad and angry in his heart, he still issued the order decisively. It was not the right time to fight with Zhang Ren. He needed to first study how the other party managed to cross the Macedonian front so quickly. If he did not solve this problem, The Fourth Eagle Banner has no way of fighting the opponent, and the Scythian Royal Archer must not continue to lose any more.
Once the archer organization drops to a certain level and no longer has the ability to kill and suppress the Han army under the cover of Macedonia, then the most terrifying thing in history will most likely happen - a single legion and a single Roman single-digit eagle flag. Pick and complete the annihilation of the Roman Eagle Banner!
There is no way. Without the Scythian archers, with the combat effectiveness displayed by the Han army, it is not a problem to completely annihilate the Macedonian army. Speaking of which, this is also a common problem of the Roman army, that is, short legs. Once it appears, it will definitely The gap in combat power is basically impossible to escape.
Therefore, after the Han army broke through the Macedonian front twice in a row, Filippo did not dare to delay any longer. He quickly contracted the front and ordered the Macedonian army to compress the front. Then, under the cover of the Scythian archers, they quickly retreated, while Zhang Ren was relieved While maintaining a majestic posture, he pursued for a certain distance and then gave up.
Of course, Zhang Ren noticed many strange things during this period. For example, the Roman Christians in the Black Sea camp naturally knelt on the ground when they saw him. There were also some Christians who had been armed by Filippo before he retreated. At that time, not only did he not retreat with Filippo, but he organized people to stop Filippo.
However, because the combat effectiveness of the two sides was too far apart, the so-called blocking seemed more like a death blow to Zhang Ren. Zhang Ren was quite puzzled by this.
"Order Deng Xian to lead five hundred soldiers to wander around the perimeter, Leng Bao to lead the soldiers to maintain security at the Black Sea camp, and the others to quickly clean up the battlefield. Hong Gang, please get in touch with these barbarians. They have been crying at me since I won the battle. He was laughing and muttering something about the Lord, the deputy king of the kingdom of heaven and so on." Zhang Ren ordered to the crowd.
To be honest, Zhang Ren doesn't like senseless massacres. He is a general, not an executioner, so Zhang Ren's attitude towards the European barbarians in the Black Sea camp from the beginning was to expel them. Although he accidentally encountered the Fourth Eagle Flag, Zhang Ren did not The idea of changing your attitude.
But now I see these people kneeling, laughing and crying, and saying words that I don’t understand at all. Well, he can understand the words by relying on his telepathy, but what the hell does he mean, the deputy king of heaven?
"Okay, leave it to me here." Wang Lei nodded. He had actually heard something else. It seemed that Zhang Ren was recognized by this group of people as the savior of the world. Although he didn't quite understand what it meant. But Wang Lei felt that he still needed to understand the situation.
In short, it’s important to understand the local culture thoroughly first. These days, it’s important to understand the local culture first when arriving in a new place.
