Chapter 1942: Fleeing in the chaos
It is obvious that compared with tools like rafts, the opponent's talent of crossing water like walking on flat ground has no way to erase the great advantages on the water surface. . The fastest update
[Wow, indeed, walking directly on the water has caused a lot of damage to the soldiers, but after seizing this opportunity, he annihilated nearly two thousand elite soldiers of Anxi, and ignored the small losses of his own. I think Anxi will not make any irrational actions in a short period of time.] Benito felt the morale of the soldiers around him constantly recovering, and felt much more relieved.
After all, Benito's purpose from the beginning was not to fight a head-on war with the Sakuras, but to take advantage of the chaos to attack the Sakuras, so that the soldiers around him could understand that although their Roman legion was severely damaged, they still had strength.
The opportunity just now was very good. I had been trying to endure it before and did not expose such ability. It was just to make the rest of the world awaken at one time. Force attacks and other things were definitely a stupid choice.
Seeing that the resting man across the river did not retreat, Benito didn't care too much. After all, two-thirds of the floating bridge had been repaired, and suddenly he found that what he had done before was useless, and anyone else would probably not be able to accept it.
"Ferucci, you have you formed a formation to defend on the spot. Although the Sakura people are peaceful now, if we neglect, the previous things are still very likely to happen." Benito observed the Sakura people opposite and confirmed that although the Sakura people were angry, after seeing the performance of the Fourteenth Legion, he should have lost the idea of forcing a breakthrough.
However, even so, Benito still cautiously ordered all the legions to station along the river according to the defense line he arranged. It seemed that there was no way for Anxue to do so, but he was unwilling to accept it and wanted to wait for the Romans to neglect them.
"Is it an attack before dawn and under the cover of the darkness?" Zhuge Liang and others asked, "In our current situation, only if Arda Hill restrains the fourteen combinations of legions can we successfully cross the river."
"In the case of Ardashir, he is likely to choose that time, so we are ready, this damn Fourteenth Legion." Fars Sassanthes was full of fire. "If the Fourteenth Legion retreated to the east of the Euphrates River, then pursue it directly and other things will be plundered."
Zhuge Liang nodded. Indeed, if Fars Sassanthes was successfully defeated by attracting the enemy's attention, then when the Romans escaped the Euphrates and then used the previous methods, I really thought that the Romans would remember to eat or fight!
When the darkest time before dawn the next day, Ardashir's army attacked the Romans in the dark. As far as Gao Shun and others observed, although the attack of the Sakura people was discovered by the Romans, they were already too close to them at that time and could not stop them.
"Everyone listens to my orders, rush to land on the beach!" Fars Sassanthesan discovered the flames lit up in the Roman camp. He immediately realized that his grandson had launched an attack and was trying to restrain his opponents. Without any hesitation, he personally climbed the pontoon bridge and ordered a forced raft.
The Roman camp was absolutely not a mess, because Benito was cautious and all the elites of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Eagle Flags were stationed on the periphery. Therefore, although he was caught off guard by the sudden attack of the Sakura people, it did not cause turmoil in the entire camp.
However, Ardashire knew his purpose better. He came not to compete with the Romans, but to attract the attention of the Romans. Therefore, with the cover of the night, Ardashi's team was almost a long strip, and in a very short time, half of the camp in Rome was attacked.
Under the darkness, there were shouts of killing from the Absas everywhere, and the momentum was extremely large, so even Benito was a little doubtful if the Absas army had crossed the Tigris River, let alone the ordinary soldiers below.
Therefore, the camp that was originally stationed was obviously in chaos at this time. Even if the suppression of the 145th Legion did not completely collapse the barbarian army, the 145th Legion gradually attracted attention by Ardashir's full attack.
"Roll!" Fars Sassanthesan stood on the pontoon bridge and roared. Countless rafts had been prepared long ago. Taking advantage of the night, when the Romans had no time to fight back, and taking advantage of only one-third of the river left, they rushed across the Tigris River!
"Kill!" Datis was the first to lead his personal guards to successfully grab the beach. He immediately stepped on the cold river water under the night, and attacked the Romans with the clouds on both sides!
"Chang Chong!" Fars Sassan was overjoyed when he saw this scene. After Datis charged, many resting men soon followed the direction of Datis to the river bank, and then quickly launched an attack on the archers arranged by the Romans on the river beach under Datis' organization, preparing for the landing of more resting men behind him.
As more and more soldiers crossing the Tigris River in Anxie became more and more organized and even began to have a scale. Fars Sassan made a quick decision and rushed over by boat. At this time, the Han army leisurely took a boat to pass by.
"This kind of chaos is good. In such a flat plain, the resting people have to chew on such a strong defense, and it is not so easy for the Romans to gradually stabilize the defense line. Brothers, please copy weapons and help friendly troops!" After Li came to the other side of the river, he was already excited. At this time, it was already dawn, and the Romans had stabilized the front under the command of Benito.
However, when Li Zhuan's weapons were about to help, the situation on the Romans had changed tremendously. It was obvious that Benito had a good vision. He knew his purpose and priorities, and did not give Li a chance to appear.
Although this line of defense cannot last for too long compared to the continuous emergence of the army on Fars Sassanid, the Romans did not need to support it at this level. The defense line behind them could retreat directly if they resisted for a while.
"Ferucci, inform Elkran and their retreat. The Fifteenth Legion is led by you and fought and retreated. The Fourteenth Legion is followed by me." Benito commanded the army to continuously alternate attacks, replace the barbarian army that is easily broken, and let them conduct auxiliary attacks. Then the Fifteenth Legion is covered, preparing to let these people retreat first.
"Where to evacuate?" Ferucci asked.
