Chapter 130: Can Stones Kill People?

The leader of the Roman legion was extremely confident at this time, because these two arms were the absolute means to restrain the cavalry.

Another legion commander asked slightly cautiously:

"Have you found these Chinese heavy cavalry?"

Because the power of heavy cavalry is too terrifying.

The leader of the legion quickly said:

"I've already seen it, and they don't have heavy cavalry."

"Think about it, how could they come with such equipment after coming from such a long distance?"

They had already seen it, and the opponent had no heavy cavalry at all.

The so-called heavy cavalry refers to men and horses, all wearing heavy armor.

Very bulky, generally one heavy cavalry requires two to three light cavalry to carry equipment for them.

This is why, even in Rome, there were only a few heavy cavalry.

Because the requirements for both people and equipment are very high.

The other legion commander nodded with relief and said:

"It's fine if you don't."

"Then this time we must let them know that Rome is not comparable to those barbarians."

The leader of the legion showed a hint of arrogance and said:

"So what if there is?

Can they break through the Macedonian spear phalanx? "

Another legion commander said with some seriousness:

"Even if they can't break through, they will still cause a lot of casualties."

The Macedonian spear phalanx is indeed a unit that can restrain the cavalry. How many people have long spears?

If the cavalry wants to get close to the phalanx, they need to pass through those spears, which is simply an impossible task.

Even if it passes through, the speed will slow down.

And a cavalryman who had lost his horse and was still wearing heavy armor was just an iron can in front of the Macedonian soldiers who still carried short swords.

Moreover, the spear phalanx also has means to deal with bows and arrows. When those spears are waved together, they can isolate most of the bows and arrows, and they can only exchange for human lives.

Upon hearing this, the leader of the legion sneered and said:

"What does the life and death of those Macedonians have to do with us? When they die, our heavy infantry will just come into play."

"And don't forget, we also brought a scorpion crossbow."

Roman heavy infantry is the most solid foundation of Rome!

Not only did each person have a superb combat record, but they were also equipped with two short spears that could be thrown out at the moment before engaging the enemy.

Whether it is infantry or cavalry on the opposite side, they will suffer a devastating blow.

Then they used large shields to protect everyone and formed a solid defensive formation.

It was with them that Rome was almost invincible on the battlefield!

Those barbarian cavalry were simply vulnerable to them.

If it weren't for the difficulty of pursuing them, they would have captured these places long ago.

The scorpion crossbow has an extremely long shooting range. If those people want to attack while roaming, they will be stabbed to the core.

Listening to what the other party said, another legion commander also felt that this was indeed the case.

These Chinese people have only two choices.

One is to retreat when faced with difficulties, and the other is to use his life to increase the Romans' record.

No matter which one, today's victory belongs to Rome!

At this time, Meng Zhi also looked at the infantry camp that was slowly approaching them with a slightly solemn expression.

He was not surprised by the opponent's weapons and equipment, but that he was able to be so well-trained while moving, which showed that the opponent's training and morale were extremely good, and he was a difficult enemy.

At this time, Xiang Zhuang also came over with someone, frowned and said:

"These people are a bit weird. Are you going to fight this battle or am I going to fight?"

Now there are 50,000 people here, and the Chu army has 30,000, so they naturally have a certain degree of initiative.

It's just that it's the first time they've seen such a formation, so they're inevitably a little unsure.

Meng Zhi quickly said:

"I won't let the soldiers hit the heads of these guns."

It has to be said that even when he saw the dense forest of guns that was several feet long, he felt a little frightened. Only a fool would lead someone to hit it.

It's just that they can't bypass each other now, which is somewhat uncomfortable.

Xiang Zhuang quickly said at this time:

"Then I will lead people to roam around them and attack from the side or back, but I need your crossbow and rocket support."

Of course he knew the Qin army's secret weapon.

This thing is a huge killer against such a dense infantry camp.

Who knew, Meng Zhi shook his head and said:

"The crossbow rockets are reserved for attacking the city, and I can't give them to you now."

He wanted to keep this thing for the final say during the siege. He brought it here just to protect Zhao Hao's safety and would not use it so easily.

You know, this time it's just a trial attack.

He can't possibly bring out all his cards.

Xiang Zhuang said coldly:

"Forget it if you don't give it. If it wasn't for the long journey, I, Da Chu, would have it myself."

"My general, with his cavalry, can kill these barbarians without leaving any trace of their armor behind."

The State of Chu also had bows, crossbows and rockets, but their power was not as powerful as those of the State of Qin.

It doesn't matter if they don't have these. It's enough for them to bring the sky thunder with them, wander over there, and then throw the sky thunder to attack.

At this time, Meng Zhi looked at the infantry camps in the distance with different costumes and divided into many small squares, and said:

"These people are different from ordinary barbarians. They are not that simple. You have to be careful."

Hearing this, Xiang Zhuang did not refute. He was also a veteran. He had suffered so much in Da Qin and had grown a lot following Fan Zeng.

He nodded and left here directly with the people.

Soon, Meng Zhi saw two groups of cavalry in the Chu army's camp, one on the left and one on the right, rushing towards the Roman camp.

It was like two giant black dragons attacking a crab with a hard shell and extended claws.

At this time, on the high slope, Zhao Hao was concentrating on the battle below.

After a sound of horse hooves, Xiang Dalong was seen running over with his guards and said:

"I heard that you ran away to play by yourself, why didn't you take me with you?"

Zhao Hao said lightly:

"Just doing something."

Xiang Dalong curled his lips. He naturally didn't believe it, but he didn't pursue it.

Instead, he also looked at the fast-moving and majestic Chu cavalry on the battlefield, and said with a bit of pride:

"Aren't the cavalry of our great Chu extremely majestic?

Taking down these barbarians was easy. "

He still has confidence in his manpower.

But in the next moment, the two of them saw that many people suddenly fell off their horses among the wandering Dachu Qi soldiers.

If you look carefully, you can see that there are several small square formations behind the Roman infantry, with something thrown together.

It's just that it's too far away to see clearly.

Zhao Hao suddenly frowned and said:

"It's not a bow and arrow, what is it?"

Zhou Yafu, who had the best eyes, could not help but say at this time;

"These people looked like they were throwing rocks."

"Stone?"

Xiang Dalong was stunned. Now in a war, stones can kill people?
