Chapter 1189 The Dust Settles
"It's the Military Soul, he has been promoted to the Military Soul Corps!" Nareto led the Rose Corps and rushed to the front, intending to block Ju Yi's shocking attack.
They had all witnessed the attack of the Parthian Cavalry, and this scene was very similar to when the Parthian Cavalry targeted Trajan's legions.
A large group of them gathered here. If Ju Yi took away dozens of Roman legion commanders and a Roman duke in one go, he couldn't believe what a blow this would be to the Roman Empire.
Worse still, they might be nailed to Rome's pillar of shame, with an entire army slaughtered by five Praetorian Guards, bringing shame upon their families and even their legions.
"Stop it for me!"
Nareto roared, and the rose-like shield was like a solid wall, blocking everyone in front of him.
"Shoot!" Ju Yi on the other side roared and gave the order loudly. Countless cloud arrows shot out from the hands of the heavy crossbowmen, crossed the Rose Legion, and landed in the Roman army.
"It's over!"
Nareto felt a chill in his heart. He did not dare to look back at the tragic scene behind him. He forgot that in front of such a powerful crossbow army, direct shooting was not the only way. They could also use projectiles.
If you get past their defense, there will likely be hell behind you.
"Bastard... I want you to die!" Nareto was furious and was about to charge forward to fight to the death with Ju Yi.
If Ju Yi didn't die, he, as the commander of the Military Soul Corps, would also be held accountable.
"Thank you for saving my life!" Arnubis said with a dark face.
Nareto turned his head in surprise and saw that there was indeed hell behind him, but Ju Yi's explosion basically fell among the barbarians. Thousands of barbarians fell, and many more were shot and injured.
If all these arrows fell on the heads of these legion commanders, even a boundary-breaking expert like Lucius would probably not survive.
Although several thousand barbarians died, the loss was already as low as it could be.
"It seems that the Han Dynasty still has concerns!" Marche said stiffly. At that moment just now, he really thought he was going to die.
"Stop talking about this, the three cavalrymen of the Yuan family are coming!" Luciano reacted the fastest. Not to mention Ju Yi in front, Yan Liang, Wen Chou and Zhang He had already led the cavalry to attack the barbarian formation.
Zhang He, in particular, could almost be said to be a bulldozer. Wherever he passed, both infantry and cavalry were destroyed like rotten wood.
"Give up the pursuit, let them leave, prepare the legion to attack, drive away those three cavalrymen, and go back to the forge city!" Arnubis was extremely tired.
Benito's face also looked unhappy. After seeing Yan Liang's Red Blood Cavalry, he immediately realized what the so-called tragic victory that day was.
There was no such thing as a tragic victory at all. Instead, he was played around by the enemy throughout the whole process. Not only did he fail to achieve any success, but he also lost half of the Fourteenth Combined Legion. It can be said that he was defeated miserably.
"After we go back, let's write a joint petition to request that our headquarters be transferred here. This place seems to be more than just a place for trials!"
After a moment's silence, Africanus spoke to the others.
The feeling of being on edge just now made him feel fearful. They found that the strength of the Yuan family seemed to be a little beyond their imagination.
"As it should be. We need to make further adjustments to the Yuan family's strategy!" Marche nodded.
The strength of the Yuan family is a bit beyond the standard, with two military soul corps and several royal guards, this kind of strength does have the power to directly push back the barbarians and then invade the eastern provinces.
Since the start of the war, although it seems that there is one win, one loss and one draw, in fact it is three losses in three games.
Of course, their goal of consuming the barbarians was achieved. At least 700,000 to 800,000 barbarians died in one battle. This death toll was quite acceptable to the Senate.
After a few more times, the pressure inside them will become very small, but the outstanding killing of the Yuan family also reflects a problem from the side, that is...
The Yuan family seemed to really have the qualifications to stab them in the back.
Moreover, the white horses of the Han Dynasty have a great restraining effect on the barbarians. If they were to fight against Great Britain, they could use a large number of barbarians to contain the Yuan family.
When the white horse arrives, the Yuan family can easily kill the barbarians and then stab the eastern part of Rome directly. This is a completely unacceptable strategic threat to them.
Bai Ma and his men currently don't have any good solutions, but they can still control the Yuan family. As long as the commanders of each legion bring the main combat legion and the reserve legion, they can completely control the Yuan family.
They must take the initiative in this area into their own hands and never leave the Yuan family any chance to assassinate them.
"Just think of it as training the reserve army. We need a large number of reserve troops who can be replenished in time!" Leonardo's expression was a little subtle.
"If possible, I hope to transfer Filippo over here so that we, the Fourth Eagle Flag, can train together."
"Is there something wrong with the Han Dynasty's military spirit? Why can they produce so many military spirit legions? Logically speaking, shouldn't there be three gifted legions?" Luciano was extremely confused about another thing.
The number of military souls of the Han Dynasty was simply too many. They didn’t feel anything before, but since they conquered Parthia, they had one more military soul legion.
Roma realized the problem, especially when Ju Yi became the Military Soul Legion in front of them.
"I now doubt whether Parthia had the support of the Han Dynasty. It is very strange that so many miracles could suddenly break out in the decisive battle!" Arnubis was frantically throwing dirty water on the Han Dynasty.
"I have a feeling that the biggest enemy of Rome in the future should be the Han Dynasty. We must speed up the pace of flattening Great Britain. Only by maintaining stability in the north can we better deal with the Han Dynasty!"
Marche and Luciano nodded in agreement. The strength of the Yuan family was actually just that, but the legions and characters supported by the Han Dynasty were too difficult to deal with.
You have to know that this is the military force that the Han Dynasty used when it was at full-scale war with the Kushan Empire and at a partial war with the Undead Empire .
I'm afraid only the Han Dynasty itself knows the true strength of the Han Dynasty.
But no matter what they thought in their hearts, at least more than 10,000 barbarians became Roman citizens, which was not good news for the Senate in the rear.
But they also knew that this was something that had to be granted to the barbarians, so they could only grudgingly approve this fake war and grant Roman citizenship to more than 10,000 barbarians.
They also publicized the matter widely, trying to get more young and strong barbarians to join the army.
By the way, if the barbarian legions wanted to receive military training, they had to pay Rome.
The citizen legions received money from Rome, and the barbarian legions even had to pay money to Rome.
Paying money to join the army can be considered a kind of economic value for the barbarians.
A small number of barbarians who see through these scams will choose to escape to Great Britain or to the Yuan family.
But most of the barbarians only have eyes for those successful barbarian citizens, and with the mentality of "if he can do it, so can I", they embark on a hellish journey with a death rate of up to 99%.
…
"You did a great job!" Huangfu Song, who got the intelligence, praised Xu Rong highly. In his eyes, the strategic goal had been achieved.
Xu Rong nodded with a little disappointment. Although it was true, it was a failure after all.
When Huangfu Song turned his gaze to Ju Yi, he was a little at a loss. He understood the Military Soul Legion, but not much.
What’s worse is that Ju Yi now performed a more advanced operation.
He can actually use himself as a medium to use the power of military soul anytime and anywhere. It can be said that Ju Yi himself is a military soul legion and can appear on any battlefield anytime and anywhere.
To a certain extent, it has extremely high strategic value and can even be used for intelligence deception, which can rewrite the course of a war to a certain extent.
What’s more important is that Huangfu Song didn’t understand how Ju Yi did it.
To be honest, Huangfu Song originally thought that there were very few things he didn't understand about military affairs. Even if there were, they were only things at the level of military gods.
But he didn't expect that Ju Yi would give him a difficult problem now. Theoretically, there is no problem, but the fact that someone can actually do it is a big problem in itself.
In other words, Ju Yi trained two military soul legions, one of which was a mixed legion.
The heavy crossbowmen inherited the vanguard's burst of cloud arrows, and the halberd soldiers inherited the vanguard's resistance to death and unlimited stamina.
This shocked Huangfu Song greatly. He understood this idea, which was the principle of combining the five schools of the Northern Army into the Tiger Guards of the Han Dynasty.
But there is a variable here, and that is the military spirit, which he doesn't quite understand.
This seems to have involved the area where Han Xin's military spirit spreads. Although Huangfu Song can't figure it out, he has a way to solve this problem.
That is to kick Ju Yi back to the Central Plains.
Let those military gods study this problem. He doesn't have the time to study this thing.
He is very aware of his own level. If there is a problem he doesn't understand, it is likely that he really doesn't understand it. It is better to leave it to the big guys to solve.
"How do we fill the gap left by Ju Yi's departure?" Shen Pei asked with a headache. As soon as Ju Yi left, two guards were lost for no reason, and the power in the hands of the Yuan family declined further.
Shen Pei was very worried about the possible increase in Roman power.
"Don't worry. I didn't take action before. Next summer, I will let you know the real reason why I was sent to this place!"
Huangfu Song sneered twice. Rome got the face but not the substance.
Therefore, Rome's next wave of offensive must be within its tolerable range. If he blocks it and delays it until winter, another year will have passed.
Anyway, the process of reorganizing the family with Great Britain is going smoothly, and in about a year, public opinion will be formed to counterattack Rome. By then, even if he goes all out, Rome will definitely not be able to deal with the Yuan family.
The two or three years of stability soon came.
Even if Rome sent a large army to attack the Yuan family, he had absolute confidence in giving Rome a big surprise.
Shen Pei was a little worried, but looking at Huangfu Song, he had no choice but to believe it.
"By the way, I heard that Yuan Benchu has already repelled the scattered barbarians who had fled there and captured a lot of prisoners?" Huangfu Song suddenly turned his head and said to Shen Pei.
"Well, General Yang Lin brought people from the aristocratic families and, with the cooperation of Murong Ke, defeated a barbarian army of more than 200,000 and captured more than 40,000 barbarian prisoners." Shen Pei nodded.
After all, Yuan Shao's side was just a ripple, and even with a group of scattered aristocratic families, it would be easy for him to win.
"Tell him to bring back some barbarians from each legion. I want to study the military composition of Rome!" Huangfu Song said casually.
"Huh?" Shen Pei didn't understand and looked at Huangfu Song with some confusion.
"The talent composition of Rome seems to be different from ours. I want to get some captives to study!" Huangfu Song did not explain in detail. This thing is very complicated to talk about.
The Han Dynasty only had so many basic talents, and if they were combined at random, they could create tens of thousands of permutations and combinations of double talents.
Originally, Huangfu Song thought that the framework of Rome could not escape this framework, but as he got in touch with it and studied it, he found that the basic talent tree of Rome did not seem to be of the same type as that of the Han Dynasty.
Although they have many similarities, there are still many completely different things, just like the Fourteenth Combination and the Fifth Skylark, they must have basic talents that the Han Dynasty has not yet developed.
If he can master these new basic talents, he may be able to develop more different talent combinations.
He was very interested in the Ninth Spanish Legion's charge without a start. In his opinion, that talent was an idealistic talent, but the way it manifested itself was more like a quality talent.
Although he could not directly study the Ninth Spanish Legion, he could definitely study the talent composition of the barbarians.
Anyway, no matter how things change, the essence remains the same. Rome was lazy when training the barbarians. Sometimes it would even throw them directly to the Eagle Legion and ask them to send a centurion to lead a century to train the barbarians. Therefore, most barbarian legions can be seen as a scaled-down version of the Eagle Legion.
To some extent, it also deepens the Eagle Flag Legion's bond with the barbarians.
This was also the valuable information that Huangfu Song saw in the battle report, so he planned to get a batch and take it back for research.
As for the defense of the Yuan family, it will be completely left to Xu Rong.
If Rome goes too far, Xu Rong, who is full of anger, will let Rome know why Hulao Pass was known as an iron wall.
He, Xu Rong, is not made of dough.
Although there is no detailed data, Xu Rong, who succeeded in faking defeat with very little loss, is undoubtedly much stronger than before.
This time, even if Arnubis has activated his monarch talent, he may not be able to defeat Xu Rong.
The monarch's talent is itself an amplifier. For some people, even after you amplify it, there is a threshold that you cannot cross.
Huangfu Song was actually very curious about a duke like Arnubis, and had already been planning how to capture the duke and study him carefully next summer.
A monarch with the talent of guidance can be considered a rare animal. The memory of Xun Shuang from that year is still vivid in Huangfu Song's mind. Huangfu Song has always wanted to study this kind of person.
Unfortunately, he couldn't study anyone with such ability in the country, so he set his sights on Alnubis.
