Chapter 219 Miracle + Champion =?
"Charge the entire army!" Huo Qubing finally waited for the opportunity he wanted, and immediately ordered all the soldiers to form a spearhead formation, and then rushed forward at an extremely fast speed.
It was not until this time that Jiang Wei realized that their whereabouts had been hidden all along, otherwise both sides on the battlefield would definitely not remain indifferent.
Just before stepping into the cloud, Huo Qubing let out a loud roar, and suddenly pulled up and he and the Yulin Army entered the shining miracle state again. Almost instantly, a column of light that reached the sky and the earth shot up from the Yulin Army, and all the Yulin Army rushed into the battlefield like gods descending to earth.
"What's going on!"
The appearance of Huo Qubing surprised the Roman legion. They were just preparing to capture the Parthian city in one fell swoop, but how come a cavalry suddenly broke into the battlefield, and judging from their might, they were definitely from the top legion.
The Romans were somewhat puzzled. The Roman Parliament had guaranteed that apart from the Hun army that was just doing nothing, there would be no other forces coming to participate in the war. However, the Hun army had already been driven to the other side of the battlefield.
It was impossible that the reinforcements were sent by the Huns. Even if the King of Parthia was the son of the Huns' Chanyu, it was impossible for the Huns to put more strength into supporting Parthia. Even if the Chanyu insisted on his own way, the tribes under his command would definitely not support such a plan.
Ganassus, the legion commander who served as the Roman battlefield commander, was very worried. He knew that these were definitely not Parthian troops, as the Parthian military system had not changed for more than a hundred years.
Back then, the Romans were devastated by the combination of light cavalry and archery plus organized archers. Now Rome has surpassed its predecessor, but the Parthians have not changed either. They are simply stupid to the extreme.
In fact, it's not that Anxi would not change. They really have no power. The Parthian Empire actually had a very rich variety of troops, including heavy infantry, undead guards, chariot corps, cavalry corps...
Instead of asking the Parthian royal family to build other military systems from scratch, it would be better for them to use the system they are most familiar with.
Anyway, the Parthian Legion in their hands was the foundation of the Parthian Empire, and it was also their trump card to establish the Parthian Empire, which was stronger than the seven nobles. Anyway, with the large-scale Parthian Legion, they could fight back and forth with Rome.
The biggest problem of Parthia was not the problem of military system or supplies, but the same old problem, political problem as that of the Song Dynasty, a political problem that they refused to change even in the face of a war of annihilation.
The seven great nobles and the Parthian royal family were in name only. Not to mention cooperating with each other, it was already a sign of the Parthian king's skill that they did not hinder each other.
Ganasis stroked his chin and thought, could it be the Kushan army? If another empire got involved, then the situation would become difficult.
After all, as long as it is called an empire, there will be no soft persimmon. Even the Parthian Empire fought with Rome for hundreds of years, didn’t it?
But then they saw the Yulin Army rushing straight into the battlefield, and they couldn't help but laugh out loud. How stupid! In all these years, apart from seeing a tide of African beasts daring to attack an army of such size, they had never seen a idiot dare to do such a thing.
Even though their heavy infantry were deployed under the city walls, the rear army had some archer corps, but those were organized archer corps.
Their secret method clearly showed that the Yulin Army was at most a cavalry unit, not a heavy cavalry unit. After several rounds of arrow rain, not a single vestige of them was left.
Although fragile cavalry such as light cavalry and assault cavalry have the ability to dodge long-range attacks and then approach the archer's main camp at high speed, they are only not afraid of small-scale archer legions.
But their rear army has seven fully-organized archer corps, and even two double-talented elite archer corps.
Even the Spanish heavy cavalry of the Ninth Eagle Riders did not dare to charge like this, as the weight of the arrows alone could kill people.
Of course, the Romans had never seen the Western Liang Iron Cavalry, a strange legion that was called a cavalry, claimed to be heavy cavalry, but was actually mounted heavy infantry.
This was the result of a lack of culture. The Roman legion commanders and eagle flag commanders had no idea what kind of legion they were facing.
Soon, the Romans' mocking expressions disappeared, and a miracle appeared before their eyes.
More than 30,000 archers in total relied on their high shooting rate to fire five waves of arrows before the Yulin Army approached at full speed. However, the Yulin Army was too fast. From the time they started shooting arrows to the time the Yulin Army approached, it took less than a minute in total. They wasted a lot of time just adjusting the angle of the rain of arrows.
After the incredible rain of arrows from the Romans, the Imperial Guards were able to withstand the rain of arrows without a single man falling off their horses.
All the arrows were bounced away, and some of the Yulin soldiers caught the arrows with their bare hands and threw them back. The power did not decrease but increased, and directly hit the Roman archers standing in rows.
"How boring! Their level is even worse than that of the Xiongnu. The Xiongnu at least have the Will Arrows. What can this purely physical rain of arrows do? Just tickle me? I'm afraid they can't even penetrate the four idiots from Xiliang, right?"
Huo Qubing grabbed an arrow and studied it, only to find that they were all short bow arrows. They only increased the shooting speed but had no power at all. Not to mention breaking the idealistic defense, it was difficult to even break the defense of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry.
"Change the formation, charge with swords drawn!" Under Huo Qubing's order, all the Yulin soldiers spread out their formation and temporarily formed a goose formation.
Before this, Huo Qubing was worried that the seven archer corps on the opposite side had some special means, such as the arrows of will, which could consume the dead Yulin Army in the same way as ants bite dead elephants.
It turned out that they were just seven garbage legions that couldn't even use will arrows. This purely physical attack could not cause any damage to the Yulin Army.
It's not that they are physically immune, but the main reason is that the power of bows and arrows below the level of the Royal Guards can't even hurt the idealistic defense. Archers at the level of the Royal Guards have the foundation to break the idealistic defense.
A full-strength arrow similar to that of the Shesheng Camp would give them the qualification to harm the Yulin Army, but it was just a qualification and they were still garbage in Huo Qubing's eyes.
Back then, he shattered the will of the Xiongnu Empire despite the attacks of two third-talents and two military souls, but he still managed to fight his way out. The Xiongnu didn't do anything to him, and although he lost a lot of troops, it was still acceptable compared to the results achieved.
The soldiers of the Imperial Guard were too lazy to swing their swords. They simply held their sabers horizontally in their hands and rushed straight towards the Roman rear army.
At high speeds, the soldiers of the Yulin Army would not be able to see the surrounding objects clearly if they did not concentrate, so it was a good idea to kill the enemy by relying on feeling and speed.
At this speed, the Imperial Guards did not need to swing their swords, and all the Roman soldiers who were hit by the sabers were cut in half.
The tall ones were chopped off in the waist, and the short ones were beheaded . Fortunately, the heights of the Romans and the barbarians were normal, which made it easy for the Yulin Army to achieve the goal of slaughter. If it were some guys who had a good life, the Yulin Army's attacks might have hit the air.
