v8 Chapter 141： Strike in Rome (13)

The two cavalry regiments were busy recruiting their cavalry, and the commander Tormid, who was behind the Deonian regiment, learned the changes in the enemy formation in the return of the detective, and he must of course respond.

He pondered for a moment and issued an order: let the light armored squadrons of the 4th and 5th Legions behind the left and right wings move quickly to the front and spread out to the wings to block the enemies attempting to wrap around, while behind the middle road The Second Corps Light Armor Brigade is divided into two parts and is ready to support the two wings.

After all, let the light armor and the enemy's heavy infantry face each other, the difficulty is great, and Tolmide is also helpless. He just wants to delay some time.

The order was issued, the troops began to move, and the dust was soaring. Tolmid, who had been in a state of tension, looked at the front and suddenly widened his eyes: "What is going on?!"

Through the dusty fog, he saw Klotok Katex and 40 court guards who had quietly rested in front of him suddenly moved to the right.

"Adult, no one has given an extra order to His Royal Highness Prince!"

"Go!! Send someone to tell Your Highness, let him obey the order, stay in the same place!" Tormed said in a hurry.

Klotok Katex saw the squadron screaming in the back of the array. He immediately realized that the situation had changed, so he ordered that the court guards move along with the light armored corps of the Fifth Army to the right wing. These court guards also initially He stopped him on the grounds of his safety, but he was the temporary chief of the palace guard, and the citizens of Dionia who did not want to go to the merits, these palace guards stayed in the city of Turui for a long time, guards wear King Foss, finally had a chance to kill the enemy, it will inevitably be heart-warming, so it was easily convinced by Klotok Katex.

When the commander rushed to the scene and asked "Clotto Kataks to obey the order and stay in the same place", Klotok Katex replied indignantly: "Please tell the grown-up Tommy, now the army is In the face of danger, other soldiers are fighting in blood, but let us hide like a coward. Do he want us to be a joke of the whole kingdom?!"

The words of Klotto Kataks made the originally falsified court guards immediately firm, so they did not listen to dissuasion and continued with Klotto Katex.

After Tommy's answer from Kloto Kataks from the commander's mouth, he was so good at coordinating and dealing with various complicated relationships that he did not know what to do. On the one hand, indeed, as the young prince said, if he let him stand by and wait for the war to end, returning to Turui, the prince is indeed likely to be ridiculed by the people, then not only Clotto Kataks will hate He, King Davers and Princess Clystoya will also be dissatisfied with him; but if he is really let go to face the fierce enemy, if he is really injured, he will also be complained, if he is killed, That's it..."

Just as he was hesitant, the detective flew and ran: "The newspaper, Epiphanis has already led the army to the battlefield!"

"It's finally here!" Tolmede sighed for a long time, and the heart that had been hung up finally fell. He turned his head and said: "I immediately pulled a company from the Second Army Light Armor Brigade to accompany the Prince. Go to the right wing!"

With the reinforcement of Epiphanes, the rout of the Roman reinforcements is in front of him, and he no longer has to worry about the safety of Clotto Katax.

.............................................

"Leading the army to land in Latin and attacking Rome" is regarded by Dafos as one of his most important strategic plans so far. He knew that Rome would be able to go all out in the past, so he not only dispatched the first and the first. Second, the third, fourth, fifth and sixth infantry regiments, as well as the first and second cavalry regiments, he also sent Epiphanes, who had just left the post of chief executive and at home, to Lucania.

As the Third Corps stayed at the Atlantis at the request of the Campanias, the Ministry of Military Affairs appointed Zantitipis to form a new reserve army in the Lucania region, replacing the third legion to defend the entire Lukania region. . The soldiers of the Third Legion not only came from Lucania, but also Copsa and the coastal areas of Enona, Poseidonia, Elia, and Raos, so the army is rich, and Zantitipis is very A complete new legion was formed soon.

Davers issued an order: Epitynis led half of the new army, and the next day after the army landed in Latin and occupied Ostia, they took a boat to Ostia.

This is a backhand reserved by Daves. He will use this important flag in the development of the war situation.

As the attention of the coastal city of Latina was attracted by the great event of the “Daonia army besieging the city of Rome”, it was not noticed that another small number of Dionya troops were mixed in the huge fleet of transport materials. The port of Ostia.

And when Davis learned at the dusk that "the previously defeated Roman army had regrouped and marched east, ready to rescue the city of Rome", he immediately sent a messenger and rushed to Ostia to inform Eppi. Today, he led the army to advance eastward, assisting the main force to defeat the Roman reinforcements and guarantee the smooth progress of the siege.

Epiphanes, who has been out of the military for several years, has always been known for his flexibility and skill. He led the army this morning and did not immediately urge the soldiers to hurry. Instead, they marched at a gentle pace. At the same time, he sent a lot of detectives, frequently went to the military camp to understand the deployment of the entire siege and the enemy situation outside the city of Rome, and keep abreast of the progress of the war to find the fighters.

When he learned that the friendly army was blocking a large number of Roman reinforcements in the west of Rome, he immediately realized that this would be his first target.

At this time, he ordered: the whole army speeded up the march in the direction he designated.

Just as the troops were about to arrive at the battlefield, Epiphanis met with the two cavalry officers hiding behind the 400 cavalry. After learning about the attack plans of Ledes and Kuzius, he immediately said confidently. : "Go tell your army leader, don't consume your horses anymore, and give me the next battle!"

After that, he ordered: the troops stopped moving forward, began to array, and let the soldiers organize the equipment.

Ledes learned that the news of the arrival of the reinforcements was really relieved, but he was not prepared to completely abandon his previous offensive plan and quickly reached an agreement with Kuzius: the plan was still implemented, but the two wings were forced to change. It became a sniper attack, and the raid on the middle road remained unchanged.

"Hey!..." The attacking military number blew, Ledes's legs were caught in the horse's belly, and the horses slammed their four hooves and began to move forward. More than 1,000 cavalrymen followed him from the beginning. It takes a long time to jog in small steps.

On the other side, more than 1,000 cavalry led by Kuzius also handled this.

This gave the Roman army, who had been vigilant against the Dionyrian cavalry, a chance to react. This was seen in Paulus, behind the military line, and certainly did not allow the Dionysian cavalry to destroy the attack of the two-wing heavy infantry. He immediately ordered that the twelve Roman squadrons that remained in the rear immediately rushed to the two wings to intercept the enemy cavalry's attack.

When the Roman soldiers rushed to the sides, the Dionysian cavalry was still a hundred meters away, and Paulus was temporarily relieved.

At this time, the Dionysian cavalry has changed from a small step jog to a medium-speed running. Thousands of horseshoes on both sides of the military squad are powerfully striking the ground, dusty, and large earthquakes...

Looking far away, I saw two gray cavalry units that were two miles apart, and two black cavalry units formed two huge arrow types, like the black tides flying forward quickly, and in that piece Some bright red is flashing in the surging black tide, which is the flag of the cavalry regiment. The biggest side is held high by the head of the army, at the forefront of the queue. It flies in the wind and stands high, indicating the direction of the whole army.

At this moment, the first cavalry has been less than seventy meters from the Roman army waiting in front, and Ledes shouted: "Turn left! Turn left!!..."

The high-flying Pegasus flag immediately pointed to the left side. The brigade that had been watching the movement of the flag and the flag-bearers of the company also changed the direction of the flag. The top Leders and the surrounding cavalry led the whole army. Turning... In the end, the entire cavalry team passed by the Roman army ahead.

When I saw the dust coming from the enemy's horse that was only two or thirty meters away from me, when the horse was riding and riding, and the array of the other side was galloping, the Roman soldiers were still a little nervous The heart is really relieved: the momentum caused by countless enemy rides rushing to face is really scary!

The two-winged Roman soldiers were relaxed, but the Roman light infantry behind the middle road was nervous. They pointed at the rear and screamed in horror: "The cavalry! The cavalry of Dionia!! They rushed toward us!! !......"

Yes, a few hundred meters away from the back of them also raised a cloud of dust, gray wrapped in black, rolling towards them.

In the back of the light infantry, Paulus turned and saw this terrible scene, and felt the same panic: Damn, I went to the Diaonian!

"Go! Go! Go and inform the squadron transferred to the two wings to return quickly! Fast!!..."

Unlike the two-winged Dionysian cavalry, the 400 cavalry in the middle of the attack are already speeding up, and the distance of a few hundred meters does not take much time.

Most of these Roman light infantry are not Roman citizens, but from the Latin allies. Of course, they will not have the determination of the Roman citizens to "defend their homes and fight for death". They look at the rapidly approaching enemy rides. In the screams, the light infantry gates fled.
