Roman Empire of Total War

The five thousand soldiers of the Vanguard of Heim were all infantrymen, which made them unable to fight back under the long-range strike of the heavy armored crossbowmen of the First Division; the main force of the Heim army who subsequently arrived on the battlefield was different. This is an elite army of infantry and archers.

The main force of the nearly 100,000 Heim army, as soon as it appeared on the battlefield, displayed a full-attack situation, even the reserve team did not stay; more importantly, the main force of the Heim army was nearly a one-to-one step shot ratio, so that the total The Cossack mercenaries with only eight thousand heavy crossbowmen deeply felt how hard the situation of the Haim vanguard soldiers was over half an hour ago.

The more than 40,000 Heim infantry who actively launched the attack used the most common goose-shaped battle array. After being laterally deployed, their left and right wings were arranged in a ladder, which looked like a giant'V' from the front. .

It is appropriate to use the goose-shaped battle array to deal with the fish scale battle array, at least to maximize the strength of the Heim army.

If more than 40,000 Heim army infantry, if they put up other battle arrays such as the moon array and the crane wing array, although they can greatly enhance their frontal attack strength, they cannot form a whole against the hierarchical Cossack mercenaries. Offensive, and it is difficult to directly attack the relatively weak wings of the fish scales listed by the Cossack mercenaries, and it is impossible to take advantage of the many advantages of the Heim shooters.

On the contrary, after listing the giant'V' goose-shaped battle array, more than 40,000 Heim army infantry can not only directly launch a comprehensive attack on the Cossack mercenary fish scale battle array, but also allow a large number of Heim army shooters to directly follow Join the battle behind them.

The bows and arrows used by the Heim Army archers are certainly not as good as the special longbows from the Dragon Empire used by the heavy crossbowmen belonging to the Cossack mercenaries, but the arrows they use are the same as the heavy crossbowmen. Specially designed armor piercing arrows.

The Heim’s offensive had just begun, and the Cossack mercenaries, who were still in the defensive position, immediately launched a counterattack against the actively attacking Heim according to their previous experience of destroying the Heim Vanguard.

The three waves of armor-breaking arrows fired by the first round of the two thousand heavy-armed crossbowmen belonging to the First Division caused considerable damage to the densely formed Heim army; but the attack was the same as last time. It is impossible to be blocked by a few waves of armor breaking arrows.

First wave after wave of rapid-fire armor piercing rain, followed by wave after wave of piercing arrows, batch after batch of Heim infantry were shot on the spot until they rushed to the front The infantry of the Heim army killed within the line of defense built by the heavy-armed pikemen.

The heavy crossbowmen who could not continue the volley began to load their armoured crossbows on their own, preparing to continue their previous firing operations; at this time, the Heim army archers who had been behind the infantry, finally, finally Started to show power.

There are about eight or nine thousand Heim infantry who are attacking the first line of defense of the First Division, and there are as many as 10,000 Heim army archers behind them! Even because of the limitation of the range, this 10,000-Heim army shooter could not be deployed all at once, but there was enough armor-breaking arrow rain from the first wave of 3,000-4000 Heim army shooters, which still gave the unexpected first division. Caused a lot of casualties.

However, this is just the beginning. With the steady advancement of the Heim infantry in front, more and more Heim army shooters who joined the volley afterwards are also flying. The casualties caused by the regiment also gradually increased.

Unlike the free-attacking generals of Heim, they can also use small-scale changes to avoid the arrows hitting them. As defenders of the first division, in order to maintain their defenses, they can only be hard-topped The enemy's armor-breaking arrows continued to fire.

The lethality of the armor piercing arrows is very amazing. Even if the Cossack mercenaries had already undergone a full-face dress-up before the war and had more sophisticated weapons and equipment, it was still impossible to withstand the shooting of the armor piercing arrows. .

The situation on the battlefield, for a moment, was like returning to an hour ago, except that the Haim vanguard offensive was seriously injured under the rain of the Cossack mercenary's armour, and now it is on the defense. The Cossack mercenaries suffered heavy casualties under the rain of the Heim army shooter's armor piercing arrows, and the situation of the two warring parties has been replaced.

If the first division soldiers at the forefront can also use their strong will and high morale to block the attack of the Heim army under the disadvantage, then the second division and the right wing on the left wing of the fish scale battle array The fourth division, these two divisions are as good as the first division, the performance is much worse, after all, they do not have the first division of the first battle victory as a source of experience and encourage morale.

Further to the left are the 13th division of the left wing and the 16th division of the right wing. The performance of these two divisions is far from the same; the two divisions that do not even have heavy armor crossbows are attached. After the battle Soon, under the coverage of the Heim army shooters, the casualties were heavy, and even their first two lines of defense were once broken by the attacking Heim infantry.

If it weren’t a critical moment, the division chief of the 13th Division, Schniwinke, and the division chief of the 16th Division, Cuias, used the constitutional cavalry assigned to them from their respective regiments, and used **** butcher knives. The soldiers who forced the army's morale to plummet, guarded their defense line desperately. Barryn may have to send a reserve team to help maintain the defense line.

Although the intervention of the Constitutional Cavalry allowed the 13th and 16th Divisions to reluctantly defend their defenses, everyone knew that this kind of hard-to-kill defense, which was hard for them to suffer casualties, would not last long, and the offensive was still ferocious. Army infantry only need to maintain their fierce offensive for a while, and the soldiers of these two divisions still cannot defend their defense line.

Barry didn’t know the situation of the two divisions, but he knew the situation of the two divisions, but he couldn’t change anything; it took only about half an hour for the war to start. The main team of the reserve team or the decisive battle is sent out. If the true faction is sent out, the defense lines of these two divisions will naturally be consolidated. What if the defense lines of the other divisions go wrong?

More than ten minutes later, the thirteenth and sixteenth divisions once again had unstable defense lines. This time even the constitutional cavalry’s pressure failed to stabilize the morale of the two divisions that almost collapsed, and even appeared. In order to avoid the terrible accident of fleeing soldiers and drawing their swords against the cavalrymen.

The fleeing soldiers attempted to kill the Gendarmerie of the War of Superintendence. Although such a terrible thing is only an example, it also shows how far the morale of the two divisions has collapsed. Under desperation, Barry can only send herself helplessly Reserve team in hand.

Under the order of Barryn, Burchell’s fifth division was reinforced to the position of the thirteenth division, and Folster’s sixth division was reinforced to the position of the sixteenth division; The 13th and 16th Divisions of the Force, while under the supervision of a large number of constitutional cavalry, fought and withdrew. Fortunately, there was no large-scale chaos during the handover of positions.
