God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

Atalanta's expression was not much better as she watched the second and even third waves of Padia lancers charge, but she resolutely carried out her mission.

Although the use of wave charges could better distribute the impact of the Padia lancers and create a large gap, this does not mean that this method of combat is perfect.

Because the enemy's weaponry, equipment, and physical strength are unknown, it is necessary to make an upward estimate during the execution of the plan before allocating personnel accordingly.

Only by doing so could the Padia lancers possess the ability to break through enemy lines despite their interference and inflict massive casualties on the enemy.

However, this configuration, which to some extent overestimates the enemy's performance, will bring some negative effects.

That is, the Padia lancers charging ahead, when they lose their charging speed and movement speed, will essentially become obstacles in the path of the Padia lancers charging behind them.

In other words, with this configuration, the Padia lancers not only had to face their own enemies, but also had to endure attacks from the Padia lancers behind them.

The best way to avoid this method is to ensure that the number of people charging each time corresponds to the defensive capabilities of the Roman legions, so that no attack or impact is wasted.

If it were truly possible to achieve this level, there would be no need to use this method of attack. Even if Severus were in command, and there was a significant difference in strength between the two legions, he could still withstand the Roman army through his command abilities, and even have a very high chance of winning.

Unfortunately, this was not possible, so the Padia lancers' impact was naturally limited and redundant.

Under the charge of the second and third waves of Padia lancers, the barbarian legions in the area where Munniks was located collapsed immediately.

To not collapse in the face of such a massive, charging force was already an affirmation of the Roman Empire's strength. However, under these repeated charges, both the barbarian legions and the Padia lancers were disappearing at an extremely high speed.

Once the Padia lancers started charging, there was no possibility of them stopping, because stopping would make them easy targets for those behind them, and turning around would also likely result in them being killed by those on the side.

Whether voluntary or forced, there is no turning back on the path of ventilation.

However, for the barbarian legions, their legs are their own, and they can go wherever they want.

Whether they would be killed if they left was no longer a concern for these barbarians.

It can be said that within a quarter of an hour, the Padia lancers suffered heavy losses, with seven or eight out of ten being killed. The damage they caused was only enough to severely injure two or three barbarian legions. However, due to their large coverage area, the barbarian legions' flanks were subjected to a comprehensive line attack.

Under such attack methods, how many barbarian legions would still have the will to fight?

It can be said that this effective attack, while resulting in heavy casualties, did indeed impact Rome's left wing.

Under these circumstances, it would be extremely difficult for Benito to continue holding off the Parthian army.

It wasn't that the barbarian legions on the front were greatly affected, but rather that after losing several barbarian legions on the flank, the core area of ​​the entire left flank was completely exposed. Atlatomé took advantage of this huge gap in casualties and charged straight in.

"This is troublesome?!" Benito's expression was far from pleasant as he watched the American troops at Atlato pointing directly at him.

Benito was genuinely unprepared for such a charge that forcefully broke through the defensive line, and in such a short time. It wasn't that he didn't have the idea, but rather that he simply didn't have the troops to mobilize. After all, in order to further capture the Parthian army, while setting up traps, he also poured a lot of forces into the assault. As for the troops that lost their flank defenses, the troops Benito could use simply couldn't reach the flanks in a short period of time.

"It seems we're the only ones who can step up." Kirby's expression was also a little grim, but he still said very seriously.

Currently, they are the only ones truly capable of resisting the other side.

However, after a day of fighting, the extensive use of the Phantom Soldiers' abilities allowed Kirby's army to maintain zero casualties, but this does not mean that Kirby's army is safe and sound.

The illusionary soldiers are not without consumption; on the contrary, the consumption is very significant. They not only consume the soldiers' mental energy but also their physical strength.

It can be said that the Kirby Army spent the entire afternoon fighting with the Illusionary Soldiers, and even re-spawned Illusionary Soldiers multiple times, which took a toll on the Kirby Army.

In theory, if operated properly, the Kirby Legion can even achieve zero casualties on the battlefield, inflicting huge losses on the enemy while maintaining zero casualties on its own forces. This is the strength of the Third Legion.

However, seeing Atalanta approaching rapidly, Kirby knew that this was impossible.

If the Third Army Corps continues to retreat and hides under the cover of friendly forces, it can indeed reduce its losses significantly, but it is also likely to cause a series of collapses.

Especially considering the enormous losses suffered on his flank in such a short time, his retreat must have taken away a considerable number of troops with him.

Moreover, as an infantryman, it was indeed wishful thinking for him to retreat to the protection of another infantryman when the two sides were less than a hundred paces apart.

If they really did that, the inevitable result would be that they would be hunted down from behind by this cavalry force.

At that point, let alone defeating the Parthian army, even a draw would be a self-deception on the part of the Roman Empire.

"Draw your sword!" Kirby once again dispersed the illusory warriors in front of him and reassembled them in front of him. However, this was far from as easy as it had been at the beginning.

The soldiers of the Third Legion basically did similar things. In addition to resummoning the illusionary soldiers, the real soldiers also drew their weapons to deal with the Atlato American Legion that had already rushed up to them.

At almost the same time, the Roman Empire's Parliament Guard finally raised its imperial eagle emblem, displaying its own power.

The power it bestowed instantly enveloped all the Roman legions, giving them an almost comprehensive boost.

Whether it was the Roman barbarian legions or the Roman citizen legions, they experienced a qualitative leap in morale, instantly overwhelming their opponents.

Kirby felt the effects of the blessing, but instead of looking better, his expression became even uglier.

Before the war, the bottom line for this war had already been stated: to win the war without using the Parliamentary Guard.

And now, that bottom line is gone... (End of Chapter)
