Chapter 445, chapter 1 (8) the reaction of the people of Rome was very slow


    The fall of the dictator, fabian, made their internal power struggle heated up


    Hannibal also took this opportunity to give the troops a good rest in Canny and familiarize themselves with the surrounding terrain


    While waiting for the battle to begin, he was bored reading about Rome during this period


    Many books would say that the Rome senate believed that Rome should defeat Hannibal "Openly


    " Seeing this, he scoffed, a classic sign of election politics


    A fair defeat was, of course, a form of propaganda, a form of propaganda for the people


    It could also be propaganda for the alliance, but because of this, it would overwhelm all the troops in Rome


    A total of 80,000 people, the largest recruitment in Rome''s history, would seem foolish


    If it wasn''t for the political" color" that was so strong, the second punitive war wouldn''t have been so hard


    However, Huang Xuan was also very impressed by this figure of 80,000 people, who said that the number of wars in ancient europe was small


    At that time, china could easily send out three or four hundred thousand troops, which could be said to be soldiers of the whole country


    For example, the The battle of chang ping, which he was most familiar with, almost mobilized all the men aged 15 to 60 in the country


    There might be a million of them, but if you carefully compared the soldiers of both sides, you could see that the two sides were so different


    Rome ranks people according to their wealth


    The richest first class can go out to the cavalry


    The second class can only go down to the heavy infantry and then the light infantry


    But no matter what, unless the country is going to be destroyed, those without property want to be soldiers


    There is no way


    This is different from china


    In addition, the qin kingdom had millions of troops, and the Zhao kingdom had millions of troops


    Rome, in the narrow sense of Rome, was actually just a city


    In 260 bc, Rome was still a republic, not an empire, and the entire Rome alliance was formed according to the military mobilization of a Rome corps, an alliance corps - of course, this was also because the system of the Rome republic prevented him from fully mobilizing, otherwise, The first million-dollar war in european history did not have to wait that long


    Mr


    Comus was never given complete information


    The latter seemed uninterested, and Lorraine was even more obsessed with mahjong


    However, Mr


    Comus obviously had his own methods


    The travelers would not remember the history of all planes, but the academies had their own methods


    There were always traces of human history to be found


    The primitive people would go to live in cold regions, but they would not live in the frigid glaciers


    The people of Rome might win or fail


    But they always had to develop


    When Mr


    Comus came to Huang Xuan''s room, he said," Hannibal will win several annihilation battles in the remaining time, but the result will still be like a rogue, right


    " Of course, he was very surprised


    He opened his hand and thought for a long time


    " Where do you want me to start


    "" How do you get Cyrus to get the power and leave this place


    You better find something


    " After the novelty of the trip, Mr


    Comus seemed a little tired


    Dumbfounded, he said after a moment," even if we give Cyrus the right to travel, it''s hard for him to do that


    I thought what you said about gaining power was in a longer time


    " Mr


    Comus shook his head gently


    He said to himself," in this era, power should be made up of two parts, his blood and family background, as well as his military and political strength


    " As he said this, he looked at Mr


    Comus and suddenly smiled


    " I have an idea


    Let''s see if we can do it


    " The Rome corps arrived as scheduled


    The two consuls brought ten Rome corps, five of which were the allied forces of Rome


    Their fighting capacity was inferior to that of the Rome corps, but they were better than Hannibal''s lousy miscellaneous troops


    For the people of Rome, their problem was with the consuls


    Two consuls meant two different opinions


    Worst of all, their republic system was so widely used in the army


    It could be said that there was no big problem with the Rome people''s army, because their opponents had always been too weak


    After encountering the powerful Carthaginian army, the Rome people''s republic helped them time and time again


    " Battlefield rotation


    " Hearing this name made modern people feel stupid


    Of course, there were many improvements in Rome that made the system not as stupid as its name, but just a secondary stupidity - two consuls each exercising the right to command for a day


    As a result, the stable Amy lius camped far away from Hannibal, and after Hannibal attacked, he chose to avoid the war


    However, the next day, the new commander faro decided to start the war


    Then he did it


    The two armies clashed


    Hannibal was an infantryman on the central front, and he used cavalry on both wings, which was a very normal tactic in the period of the war of laying out the enemy


    However, Hannibal''s cavalry was surprisingly large


    Comus and Cyrus stood in the middle of Hannibal''s sequence, surrounded by a small number of Carthaginian cavalry, as well as a large number of iberian soldiers, as well as Hannibal''s favorite Libya phoenicians, gauls, and various african natives


    Rome''s army was almost three times larger than that of the Carthaginian


    Looking at the dense square formation of Rome in three lines, Hannibal finished his command and waved to huang xuan


    " Can you kill them


    "" Of course


    ""200 Trants


    " When Hannibal smiles, his chin curls up slightly


    He chuckled and said," actually, we want more prisoners


    "" Oh


    "" We have decided to establish a new country here, perhaps called Italy or byzantium, so we need some slaves


    " The general next to Hannibal said," only the victor is qualified to have slaves


    "" We will, but I don''t want to kill my own slaves, so


    "" Can''t you help


    " Hannibal stared at Huang Xuan


    Unable to bear it, he shut his eyes and said," don''t give me that


    Although you are as famous as Napoleon, do you know how that kid died


    " Hannibal frowned strangely, thinking about the name Napoleon


    Pointing to the distance, he said," that''s the barracks of Rome people


    There are about 10,000 people there


    If they reinforce this army, you will be in big trouble, right


    " The current Hannibal army was weaker than in history, and it was impossible to play the myth of defeating the strong with the weak


    " What do you think


    " Hannibal, on the other hand, was in a good mood to talk to huang xuan


    In front of his army, three times as many people could come at any time


    With a smile, he said," just kill them


    Those people are going to run anyway


    I will kill them when the battle begins, but 200 tarrants a time


    That doesn''t change


    "" No problem


    " Hannibal nodded solemnly and watched Huang Xuan leave from afar


    At 8: 00 in the morning, the two sides finished their formation


    In this kind of war, the rear is basically safe


    After the heavy soldiers, you don''t have to worry about shells, stray bullets, or missiles or energy cannons


    Mr


    Comus found a higher place, spread out the mat, and started the barbecue with Cyrus


    Looking at him with a smile, he came closer and realized that there were already three large energy screens in front of him, broadcasting the battlefield situation from all angles


    " You came just in time


    " Mr


    Comus called huang xuan and said," it looks like we''re going to fight


    The people in Rome are starting to move forward


    These people in front want to shoot


    " Javelins are the most powerful weapon in the Rome corps


    They have enough penetration to kill heavy infantry and are economical to reuse


    If the missiles made by Martin can be recycled, they will definitely monopolize the iraqi market


    The elite infantry on both sides looked the same


    The african soldiers also wore the heavy infantry armor of the Rome people, partly from disarmement and partly from Canny''s contribution


    This was the granary of the Rome army


    Occupying this place was the main reason for the Rome people to carry out the decisive battle


    " Do you use an energy cannon


    " Mr


    Comus asked Huang Xuan


    He always consulted Huang Xuan now


    " No


    " Huang Xuan shook his head gently and said," the Carthaginian army cannot be slaves, so we have no support


    The people of Rome are different


    " Faro commanded the Rome corps to press on all fronts, all troops on one front


    This was the most orthodox way to attack


    Hannibal ordered his central front to protrude into the central dense square that was facing Rome, and the flanks on both sides began to circle


    His toughest angry media cavalry was on the right, but today, the Liberia and gaul cavalry led by Hannibal''s younger brother showed even more" lust


    " Almost as soon as they came into contact, they defeated the Rome cavalry on the opposite side


    Although the number of people in Rome was three times that of the Hannibal army, Hannibal''s cavalry was ten times that of the Rome people


    Compared to these fast approaching african and gaul cavalry, the Rome cavalry was more accustomed to dismounting and not fighting


    Thousands of miles apart, but the way the chinese and Rome fought was surprisingly similar


    Xiao he exclaimed," this is the famous pincer attack


    "" Is it famous


    " Huang Xuan asked


    Ning Ao interjected," I don''t think it''s as famous as the big fou
