Chapter 448 Cavalry Looting
Now that the plan has been formulated, the next thing to do is to implement the plan that has been formulated now.

Han Xin and Xiang Yu took the lead in taking action.

The two men each led two thousand cavalry, and then, after being fully armed, they began to attack Rome lightly.

Speaking of which, in the current era.

The power of these two thousand cavalry is quite infinite.

the reason is simple.

In the current era, because of the stirrups and saddles, they have not yet successfully appeared in this world.

This thing is the only one in the Great Qin Empire.

Moreover, there were not many horses in the whole of Rome.

Their soldiers are actually mainly infantry.

Under such circumstances, these four thousand cavalry are enough for Rome to go up and down and drink a pot.

A few days later.

The news that the cavalry from the Great Qin Empire went deep into the territory of Rome to burn, kill, and plunder reached the ears of the consul who was gathering the army. According to the report from his subordinates, he learned that the enemy had only about 4000 people, and they were divided into two groups. Road, when you are active on your own side.

The consul's face was extremely gloomy.

He did not expect that Qin's army would be so hateful.

To be so arrogant, there are only a few thousand people in the area, and they dare to take the lead in going deep into Rome.

At one time, the consul, who had already recruited 10,000+ troops, immediately made a decision, that is, to mobilize his heavy troops.

on the battlefield.

More than 2000 Roman soldiers are forming a large square, facing the [-] Qin cavalry under Xiang Yu's command in front of them. Facing these less than [-] cavalry, the Roman soldiers did not have the slightest fear.

At this time, they didn't know how powerful this army was, and they didn't know how powerful this cavalry was.

Well, the Roman soldiers had not seen the power of the established cavalry. Historically, it was not until the Huns moved west that the people in the West fully saw the power of these nomadic legions.

At this time, Xiang Yu was the commander of the cavalry. After seeing the enemy in front of him, Xiang Yu made a direct decision without hesitation, that is, to lead the army under his command to kill the Roman soldiers in front of him.

I saw that Xiang Yu sneered, looked at the enemy in front of him, and then shouted at the cavalry under his command.

"Follow me to kill the enemy!"

"promise!"

For a time, two thousand cavalry quickly formed a shock wave. All the cavalry were divided into two rows. After lining up, all the soldiers quickly galloped towards the enemy's infantry square.

When rushing towards the enemy's infantry square.

The Roman infantry in the distance, and the commanders among them, couldn't help but sneered.

Well, in their opinion.

The cavalry of the Great Qin Empire are simply fools.

Because, the array listed by these Roman soldiers is not an ordinary array.

The array they listed was the famous Macedonian phalanx.

That is to say, the dense phalanx formed by the infantry holding spears. In history, Alexander relied on such a phalanx during his Eastern Expeditions to completely conquer countless territories.

In this situation.

These Roman soldiers are undoubtedly quite confident and certain about the spears in their hands and the phalanx formed by their army.

They never believed that the soldiers of the Qin Empire would kill them.

At this time, following Xiang Yu and the others, launching an attack, two thousand cavalrymen and eight thousand horseshoes stepped on the ground, and the movement produced was simply earth-shattering.

For a moment, the Roman soldiers at the forefront couldn't help feeling a little panicked. However, under the constraints of military discipline, these Roman soldiers still abided by their duties and were there, waiting patiently, dealing with the coming enemy. military.

Nearly.

Nearly.

Looking at it, the distance between the two sides is getting closer.

For a while, the bows and arrows and ballistas among the Roman soldiers began to fire immediately. These shots caused some sporadic casualties to the soldiers of Daqin, mainly caused by the ballistas.

However, as the cavalry of the Great Qin Empire approached.

For a moment, when all the soldiers arrived.

Just when the Roman soldiers thought they were about to start a hand-to-hand fight.

In the distance, the approaching Daqin soldiers and cavalry quickly picked up a flintlock gun from their horses.

Immediately, a series of gunshots rang out in the air.

At the moment when the gunfire rang out.

The Roman soldiers in the front row fell down in rows, and hundreds of people fell down in an instant. At this time, the second round of gunfire sounded, and it was the bullets fired by the second round of impacting soldiers.

Just two rounds of shooting.

The enemy's soldiers lost a large number of soldiers.

Nearly a thousand soldiers were lost.

[-] soldiers, [-] losses.

It's already amazing.

Moreover, the most important thing is that after the loss of nearly a thousand soldiers, the phalanx of the Roman soldiers has become a little loose.

All the soldiers felt great panic about these enemies who suddenly hurt them.

the reason is simple.

Facing such a powerful enemy.

It was inevitable that they would feel fear in their hearts.

However, the officers are still ordering, ordering all the soldiers to strictly abide by the discipline in the army, and then prepare to fight with the enemy.

However, just as all the enemies were preparing to fight the Qin soldiers.

Xiang Yu and the others reined in their horses and stopped after finishing shooting.

Then, a large number of hammers were thrown into the hands of the enemy.

Now, these Roman soldiers looked dumbfounded.

They haven't figured out what these iron hammers are for. Some soldiers even picked up the so-called "iron hammer" and played with it in their hands. They felt that this thing was of good quality and could be taken home. The hammer calls.

However, at this time.

This "iron hammer" exploded directly.

Well, this thing is not a hammer at all.

This thing is a bomb thrown by Daqin soldiers.

All of a sudden, along with these bombs, they exploded.

Originally, the Roman soldiers who could barely sustain it, and barely supported it, were completely unable to sustain it.

For a while, they began to flee in all directions.

And this is the opportunity for Xiang Yu and the others to take the initiative.

I saw that Xiang Yu led the army without hesitation, and then rushed over, strangling and chasing all the way, until the enemy was completely defeated, and then most of them were beheaded, and that was the end.

For a while, after finishing these.

Xiang Yu and others calmly evacuated from the battlefield.

And after they evacuated.

The consul who came from tens of miles, as well as all the officials in Rome, couldn't help but show a dignified expression, the reason is very simple.

They have already seen with their own eyes the strength of the army of the Great Qin Empire.

Inevitably, there was an exclamation at this time.

Some were shocked.
