Three Kingdoms Bandits

Chapter 1145 Win?defeat?unpredictable
"General Qi, the artillery is in place!"

"General Qi, the gunners are in position!"

"General Qi, the target is confirmed!"

"..."

On the observation deck, Dongfang Qiang looked indifferent.

The reports of the soldiers below indicated that the war between Persia and Rome was about to break out.

On the battlefield, the Romans have already begun to attack like the Persian Legion.

The Roman legion moved, but the Persian legion was still like a pool of stagnant water without waves. This strange situation once made the Roman monarch Diocletian want to stop the attack.However, the front vanguard had already rushed halfway, and if they stopped attacking rashly, they might be ridiculed by the Persians, and more seriously, their fighting spirit might be hit.

Besides, the Persian Legion has already set up a defensive posture, making it clear that it will fight a defensive counterattack.

On the territory of Rome, the Romans would not give up the offensive, nor would they give up any chance to drive the enemy away. Diocletian drove away the "distracting thoughts" in his heart and strengthened his belief in attacking.

On the artillery position of the Suzaku Legion, Dongfang Qiang put down his binoculars, because he was about to order an attack.

"fire!!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom..."

The sound of rumbling cannons sounded, and the Roman legion that was rushing forward was instantly covered by the smoke and flames of the explosion!
The sudden blow, the violent explosion, and the strong shock wave caused the Roman legionnaires to panic.

The Persians obviously stood there without moving, so why was their formation suddenly torn apart?How did the Persians attack them?

Ignorance is scary!

In the chaos of the battlefield, under heavy artillery fire, the Romans retreated...

Even if they disobeyed Diocletian's order, the Roman soldiers had to retreat. Facing the overwhelming artillery fire, they had no chance to rush over, they couldn't cross the artillery fire zone, and they couldn't touch the Persians.

not worth it!

……

……

"Extended artillery fire!"

"Here!"

The Romans retreated, and Dongfangqiang immediately ordered the artillery fire to extend forward!
The shells of the Suzaku Legion chased the Romans, and the Persians were excited. Such a sharp attack method can only be possessed by the legions of the Central Plains.

In front of the Persian army, Alexander, the king of Persia, drew his dagger and pointed it at the sky!

"Warriors, conquer Rome and let the power of Persia spread throughout this land!"

"For the glory of Persia!"

"attack!"

Under Alexander's instigation, the Persian Legion rushed towards the artillery fire, and their cavalry units quickly rushed into the smoke that had not dissipated.

The Romans were shattered by the Puyuan cannons of the Suzaku Legion, and they all ran for their lives. The sound of the cannons had stopped, but they still couldn't stop the Romans from running!

The Persian Legion came forward, and the Romans lost the chance to fight, but Diocletian was unwilling to accept defeat and forced the Roman Legion to fight!

After being turned over again, before recovering from the fear, the Roman soldiers were driven by their officers to fight the Persians again!

Losing the opportunity, the result of this battle is actually obvious!
In order to stimulate the fighting spirit of the soldiers, the Roman emperor Diocletian personally rushed to the front line. His fearlessness once caused a lot of trouble for the advance of the Persian army!
However, there is also a special army on the battlefield-the Iron Armored Battalion!

Gao Shun led the Iron Armored Battalion and gnawed away the hardest "bones" for the Persians.

In front of the Central Plains Armored Battalion, Diocletian's fearlessness became meaningless!Flesh and blood could hardly stop the torrent of steel. Under the oppression of rows of chariots, the Roman counterattack army headed by Diocletian retreated steadily...

"For the honor of Persia!"

"Fall Rome!"

On the battlefield, these two slogans were the most chanted by the Persians, and they did the same. Under their cover, the Romans were no longer able to resist!
Rout!

Diocletian's counterattack was defeated by the armored battalion, leading to the defeat of the entire Roman legion!

……

……

"General, the Romans are too invulnerable, and they will be defeated..."

Zhang Liao scoffed at the performance of the Roman Legion.

Anyway, Rome is also the top power in the West, and has long represented the top combat power in the Western world. Now even the Persians can't stop the attack.

"Wen Yuan, if it weren't for us, the Romans might be very powerful. They just haven't encountered such a powerful force as artillery, and they lack defensive means for a while. If the Persians can't quickly occupy Roman land and weaken Rome's power, wait for Rome If people find a way to resist us, our attack will not be so smooth." Dongfang Qiang said.

The Suzaku Legion's long-range strike capability is extremely strong, but it is also subject to many factors during combat.For example, terrain, climate is a big influence factor.

In alpine terrain or rugged mountains, the Suzaku Legion has little room to play.In rainy and snowy weather, artillery ammunition will be damp, which will affect shooting...

"General, didn't His Majesty say that we should help Persia?" Zhang Liao asked.

"The Persians want to help, but in the end they still help us. Do you remember what the Supreme Emperor said at the beginning, Tuo Tu can be crowned king?" Dongfang Qiang said.

In the Central Plains, there is only Cao Cao the king of the Western Regions, and being king is the highest honor for a general!

All military generals consider it the highest honor for the country to expand its territory.

"The last general will never forget!" Zhang Liao said yearningly.

If they can expand their borders, they will be worshiped by the people of the country and welcomed by the emperor when they return to the Central Plains. That is a matter of glory for their ancestors!
"To General Dongfang, the Romans retreated and the Persians caught up. General Gao Shun asked, will our army pursue with the Persian Legion?"

An orderly came rushing from the other side of the battlefield.

"Don't chase, go back to camp and wait." Dongfang Qiang ordered.

"Here!" The messenger hurried away again, telling Gao Shun Dongfang Qiang's intentions.

In pursuit, the speed of the chariot can catch up with the Romans, but there is not much experience in coordinated operations between the Iron Armored Battalion and the Persian Legion. During the process of concealment and pursuit, there is a high possibility of crushing. Qiang decided to let the Persians pursue it by themselves.

Anyway, the First World War could not destroy Rome, and whether the armored battalion pursued or not had little impact. The Persians won this battle.

Perhaps it should be said that the Persian Legion won with the help of the Suzaku Legion.

With Dongfang Qiang's order, Gao Shun took the Iron Armored Battalion back to the camp to rest, and the Suzaku Army also withdrew from the artillery formation to the camp.

Dongfang Qiang, Zhang Liao, and Gao Shun are waiting for the news of the Persian victory in the camp.

Unexpectedly, until the evening, there was no news from the front.Dongfang Qiang guessed that the Persians pursued him too far, so the Persian King Alexander did not send anyone back to report.

At night, a Persian soldier was covered in blood, and he was dying when he ran to Dongfang Qiangqiang's tent. He took out a piece of bloody cloth from his arms and died!

"The Romans are really not that simple, the Persians have fallen!" Dongfang Qiang said bitterly.

The content of the cloth is exactly the distress letter from the Persian king Alexander!
