Ancient Rome: Beginning With The Legionnaire

2,400 Roman soldiers stood in front of the Gaul soldiers like chopping blocks.

And a brigade led by Brian is like a sledgehammer.

And those Gallic soldiers are between the sledgehammer and the anvil.

"It's not good, there are still ~ Romans behind!"

As with most armies.

Usually the bravest soldiers are placed first.

The same is true for the Gallic troops, the last ones are all old and weak-sick and disabled.

But at this moment, Brian rushed in with a large group, like a tiger joining a herd of sheep.

"Kill me! Not one left!"

Brian would say harshly after stabbing a Gaul in front of him to death.

Because I don't know how many people have been killed, the Roman dagger in my hand has been stained with blood at this moment.

And Kirst, who was fighting in front, suddenly heard the sound of shouting for killing from behind.

"It's not good, chief, there are also Romans behind!"

A Gaul said hurriedly.

Kelster directly killed the reporter with a sword.

"To disturb the morale of the army, how can there be Romans behind us? The Romans are all in front of us!"

"Brothers, as long as we kill the Romans ahead and capture Gebus Marius alive, we will be heroes of Gaul!"

Kerst firmly believed that as long as he made another charge, he could break through the Romans' defense and capture the opponent's general alive.

Gaius Malleus.

As long as Gaius Mallius is captured alive, he wins.

Then there is the capital to unify Gaul.

No Gallic tribe had captured a Roman (former) consul alive before this time.

"Is this guy crazy?"

Gaius Mario looked at the opponent's almost crazy charge.

With no regard for casualties, and he didn't even send extra troops to stop Brian, it was a crazy tactic, betting on the last wave.

"Rex orders the reserves into battle!"

"Yes! Your Excellency General"

From the beginning until now, Gaius Marius has been using young soldiers and middle-aged soldiers, and the third column of old soldiers has not been used yet.

The third column of veterans is commonly known as reserve soldiers.

There is a proverb in ancient Rome, which is called the development of the reserve army, which is a metaphor for a very critical moment.

And now is the moment.

Nearly 800 reserve soldiers rushed up with long spears and large shields.

They replaced the already exhausted soldiers in the 1st and 2nd columns ahead.

Of course, the first two rows of soldiers who were replaced did not rest. Gaius Mario ordered them to outflank the two wings and form a pincer offensive.

Even without Brian's surprise attack, Gaius Marius would rely on his steady command ability to swallow the Gaul soldiers in front of him.

A brigade led by Brian rushed forward bravely.

Tear everything in front of you.

And all the while, the Gallic commander didn't organize effective forces to stop Brian.

"Did you idiots not eat today?"

The long sword brandished by Kelste shouted loudly.

Facing the last heavy armored regiment in Rome, these Gallic warriors really couldn't move.

"Boss, the Romans are too scary, brothers really can't rush up!"

A Gaul said dejectedly.

"What! You say it again?"

Kerst grabbed the opponent's collar and said sternly.

"All three of my brothers died in the battle! We are no match for the Romans at all! I will not fight this battle!"

While speaking, the Gaul turned and left directly.

Leaving with him, there are countless Gauls preparing to charge.

"Stop it all, stop it for me!"

Kelster roared, wanting to kill those deserters, but there were too many of them.

And Brian has already attacked to a position less than 100 meters away from [Kelster.

...asking for flowers...

Originally, Brian was still working hard, but suddenly a strange thing happened.

Many people watched as Brian quietly put down the sharp ax in his hand.

"Soldiers on the battlefield, right?"

"Very good! Tell everyone that as long as you surrender to this general, you can become my subordinate!"

Roman minions and slaves were different.

That is to say, these battlefield soldiers would not be sold as slaves at worst.

There is even the possibility of joining the Auxiliary Battalion of the Roman Legion.

For a long time, there were a small number of cavalry units among the Roman legions, most of which were from Gaul tribes.

From the Gallic tribes south of the Alps that were conquered in earlier years.

Although their treatment cannot be compared with that of Roman soldiers, they are still quite affluent compared to the life of ruthless and bloody.

Becoming a general of the Roman Legion is still attractive to a certain extent.

"I am willing to surrender"

"I am willing to surrender"

If the first person puts down his weapon, then there will be a second, a third, and more people will put down their weapons.

"Whoever lays down his arms will not die! The rest will not be spared!"

Brian snorted coldly and continued to charge forward.

"Leader, let's retreat!"

A confidant said anxiously.

At this moment, Roman soldiers in both directions are advancing frantically.

There is still a chance to evacuate now.

After a while the encirclement closed and they could not escape.

"No! I am the son of the great Gallic eagle, how could I die here, I don't believe in failure!"

Kelster took off his helmet, his blond hair was scattered, and at this moment he has fallen into madness.

Brian didn't give him time to hesitate, however.

Soon, Brian's team rushed in front of him.

"You are crazy, you dare to attack the Roman legion with 10,000 people!"
