Chapter 286 (1/2)

I have a headache today. The update may be slower.

------------

To tell the truth, compared with the ancient Roman reserve soldiers, the fighting skills of those ancient Roman light infantry were really too poor.

Fortunately, as the situation suddenly turned around, the ancient Roman light infantry pulled out their short swords and rushed straight up before the Carthage light infantry reacted. At least their battle was still very strong.

The ancient Roman reserve soldiers were not moved at all. They stood behind one by one and didn't come forward. They just took down one javelin from their back and looked coldly at the Carthage light infantry who were retreating.

With the sudden change of the situation, the ancient Roman light infantry immediately raised their eyebrows, threw their javelins at the Carthage light infantry, and then pressed step by step with a short sword.

Those Carthage light infantry immediately fell into a dilemma. There were those ancient Roman reserve soldiers nearby. Even if they were of high quality, they could not concentrate on dealing with those ancient Roman light infantry.

The battle ended faster than Wei Xiaobei expected.

None of the Carthaginian light infantry even escaped and were surrounded and annihilated by all the Roman reserves.

Just before the last Carthage light infantry was killed, Wei Xiaobei quickly threw an attribute probe.

These Carthage light infantry are one star elite creatures. Their attributes are not high. On average, each branch attribute is only two attribute points higher than that of normal humans.

They have two skills: primary battle array and entanglement. They don't have special abilities. Their holdings are long guns and small round shields.

Primary battle array: when the number of Carthage light infantry exceeds 10, they can form a primary battle array, increasing damage by 10% and defense by 10%.

Entanglement: in close combat, damage increases by 10% and flexibility increases by 10%.

Two skills that are useful in combat.

However, they were defeated by the powerful attack of ancient Roman soldiers.

In the streets lay the corpses of Carthage light infantry, and their blood dipped into the cracks in the ground.

The ancient Roman light infantry happily packed up the spoils, spears, short swords, small round shields and possible coins on Carthage light infantry.

To tell you the truth, this scene, combined with the modern buildings around, gives people a sense of disobedience as if they were making a film.

These ancient Roman soldiers did not care about the style of the surrounding buildings at all.

Wei Xiaobei reminded himself again that this is the grey world. He didn't cross the ancient Roman era!

Well, as I said before, the light infantry in ancient Rome were the poorest group of soldiers in ancient Rome.

In ancient Rome, soldiers needed to pay for their own equipment, so the importance of booty to them can be imagined.

As long as they accumulate enough wealth, these ancient Roman light infantry can add a set of lock armor to improve their survival rate.

Of course, the price of lock armour is very high. Many ancient Roman soldiers need seven or eight years to buy one.

Dada, just as the ancient Roman soldiers were cleaning up the battlefield, a series of hoofs hit the concrete pavement.

Wei Xiaobei's eyes immediately fell at the end of the street on the right.

A small group of cavalry wearing lock armor and shin armor appeared at the end of the street. They held Macedonian long guns in their right hand and an oval shield in their left hand. Even the war horses under their crotch were wearing layered armor.

Carthage holy cavalry!

There is no doubt that the strength of these Carthaginian holy cavalry is much stronger than the Carthaginian light infantry destroyed by the whole army.

The number of cavalry in this small group was twelve. When they saw the bodies of ancient Roman soldiers and their comrades in arms in the street ahead, they immediately roared angrily. Then they pulled down their golden face armor and divided it into three rows. Three cavalry in each row rushed down the street like a flood.

Facing the charge of Carthage cavalry, the performance of those ancient Roman soldiers was different.

The more than ten ancient Roman reserve soldiers immediately formed an array, stamped the big shield on the ground, and then formed a row of shield walls. The ancient Roman light infantry became a little flustered. Some wanted to hide behind the ancient Roman reserve soldiers, while others tried to attack the charging Carthage cavalry with javelin.

After the scattered javelin flew out, even the cavalry didn't touch the edge, so they stuck it in the street.

In panic, these Roman light infantry threw javelins with extremely low accuracy.

On the contrary, the ancient Roman reserve soldiers were much calmer. When the cavalry rushed to 30 meters, the javelin in the hands of the ancient Roman reserve soldiers was thrown out immediately.

At such a distance, it was difficult for the Carthage cavalry to avoid the javelin, but they blocked most of the javelins with their Macedonian spears.

Well, this Macedonian long gun has a special shape. There is a crescent half a month forward less than 20 cm behind the gun head.

And this half month can be used to block the javelin.
