Although it is only an affiliated legion, the synergy shown is not weak.

Seeing that there was no chance, Xu Ding had no choice but to continue chasing and killing the rout soldiers. He led all the cavalry to kill them from the subordinate legions shrunk into small phalanxes.

The two armies lived in peace and harmony, only half of the rout soldiers were killed or injured.

Xu Ding turned around and looked back, only to see that his infantry did not follow behind to attack the Roman affiliated legion, but rushed to the enemy's rear line according to his instructions.

However, they were under quite a lot of pressure, and the Ninth Standing Army Corps was biting up behind them, and it was also an uneven pursuit by flexible phalanxes with brigades as units.

The archers of the rebel army shot arrows from time to time to block and suppress.

Facing the arrows that were constantly flying, the main formations of the Ninth Legion's various brigades kept erecting shields to block each other.

The speed is a little slower.

At this time, it shows that Xu Ding's rebel army is the same as that of the Roman army.

The Roman army is generally equipped with very few archers, and only large-scale corps operations will be equipped with subsidiary legions of dependent countries.

The long-range weapons of the Romans were still mainly projecting javelins and shot puts.

As a big Han man, Xu Ding was determined not to be able to bear the days without archers.

The most distinctive feature of the Han military system is the standard configuration of bows and crossbows, which are good at bows and crossbows.

It is conceivable to suppress the enemy.

It is impossible for him to give up this advantage.

Although there are no compound bows in the West, they all use heavy single bows.

However, Xu Ding still selected some people who were big enough to use as the basis for archers to train.

He doesn't need these archers to have good single-person shooting accuracy, he just wants to show the archers' ability to cover and fight in combat.

That's why he was easy to use in the Roman army, and the reason why the archers were listed separately in the rebel army.

When Joel Bolin and others first heard the news, they also smiled noncommittally.

One of the reasons why Xu Ding's rebel army was a joke.

Everyone doesn't play bow soldiers, and Rome needs money and money, and people with money don't use this type of arms on a large scale.

As a result, the rebel army hastily listed it as an important series of formations. Isn't this bullshit?

But now they seem to have discovered the difference between the rebels.

The role of archers was suddenly reversed in the hands of the rebels.

Between javelins and crossbows, crossbowmen still have an advantage, especially between long-range strikes, bowmen are more convenient and flexible.

The throwing distance of javelins is still not as good as that of bows, and it is impossible for a single infantryman to carry too many javelins, only two at most, because they also need to carry other equipment. You need to get rid of the burden on your body, otherwise it will be inconvenient to project.

The second is that the weight is too heavy, and the pressure on its own logistics will also increase.

So Joel Bolin looked gloomy when he saw that the Ninth Army was unable to catch up and crush the rebel army directly.

I have a new understanding of the insurgents.

In particular, Xu Ding's arrangements for the four arms are also worthy of appreciation and study.

"Look, Governor, the rebel cavalry has rushed back again."

One of his subordinates exclaimed, Joel Bolin then turned his head and saw Xu Ding leading his few cavalrymen back again.

"Hmph, form a large formation and surround them." The rout soldiers either died in battle, or ran out of the scattered army formation formed by the small formations of the affiliated legions. Joel Bolin couldn't help being cold when he saw Xu Ding turning back again. With a snort, there was a strong murderous intent in his eyes.

Just now, the rebels took advantage of the rout on the right wing and rushed over once. Just now, he was not good at killing people, and it was not good for his men to throw javelins, for fear of hurting his own people.

Now that the rebel cavalry dared to come back, he wouldn't be blamed for being rude.

Following Joel Bolin's order, the ten brigades formed small groups and immediately surrounded the cavalry's rear wings in two arcs.

Headed by Joel Bolin, the two brigades next to him joined forces with him to form three brigades to block the frontal blocking wall.

This wall is more than 100 meters wide and is divided into six or seven columns.

The rumbling horses charged forward, and the horseshoes with their horseshoes crushed all the corpses, flags, and weapons on the ground.

Xu Ding still rushed to the front. This time he changed his gun and took his bow, raised his arrow and pulled the string, aiming at the soldiers in front of Joel Bolin's banner and shooting an arrow.

Regardless of the result, people quickly shot up again.

Nine arrows in a row, shot out at the fastest time.

Huang Zhong, Tai Shici and others are able to connect seven stars, and Xu Ding, who has speed, strength and special search ability, is also able to connect nine stars.

"puff……!"

"puff……!"

One arrow at a time, regardless of whether the Roman soldiers in front were holding javelins, shields, or broad knives, they hit the vital points one by one, and then fell down.

Nine Stars fired continuously, even Joel Bolin and others on the opposite side were horrified.

The world is so empty that someone has used archery to such an extreme, it is really too powerful.

But they sighed in a hurry, Xu Ding led the cavalry to charge closer.

Joel Bolin's men roared and roared: "Shoot!"

Melee projection is the best skill of the Roman army. Soldiers in the brigade of soldiers holding javelins are ready to throw forward one after another.

At this time, they were in no hurry to fill their positions, so they could only shoot javelins and talk.

There are more than 300 javelins in a brigade, which are also as dense as rain, and they are all thrown over.

Xu Ding didn't stop shooting arrows, he still drew the arrows calmly, and shot them one by one, the speed was no longer as fast as before.

The inaccuracy is still the same fatal, taking the life of a Roman soldier in the front row.

Although they were covered by shields and hid behind them, Xu Ding's arrows were so tricky.

Twilight!

Xu Ding felt the crisis coming, and the search perception he got from the giant python made his brain immediately give the source of the target.

On one side of his head, a javelin with a head made of lead and iron passed an inch before his eyes.
