Zhuge Liang's mental capacity fluctuated. The southeast wind came at once, and he let the fire boat pass through the other half of the Tigris River. Add some flammable liquid, fluidity, etc., and add some wind to make your boat run faster and faster.
More stable.
The foul-smelling flames directly covered the other half of the Tigris River, forcing the Romans who were rowing in the water to besiege Anxi to either withdraw ashore or be forced to hide on the Anxi side. The kerosene was carried over by Zhuge Liang's gust of wind.
A line of fire rose steadily, blocking the Romans.
Taking advantage of the fact that the opposite side was blocked by flames and unable to launch an attack on them, Sasan of Fars overjoyed and ordered the entire army to cross the river and build pontoon bridges, attracting the attention of all the Romans.
However, through the twisted flames, even if the Romans wanted to attack the Parthians, there was nothing they could do.
As for Ardashir, who had been hiding in the lower reaches, taking advantage of the bright fire upstream, the attention of the Romans on the opposite side was attracted, and he immediately sneaked across from the lower reaches under the cover of night.
Just as Zhuge Liang and others estimated, such a big movement indeed attracted the attention of the Romans. Benito even came to the front line in person and readjusted the defense.
After struggling for half a night, the Parthians worked hard to build the pontoon bridge, but in the end they could not completely repair it. However, they were able to repair two-thirds of the bridge, which was beyond Zhuge Liang's expectations.
At this point, Fars Sasan was very satisfied, so Ardashir's messengers had come to report. They had taken advantage of the Parthians upstream to forcefully cross the Tigris River to attract attention, and easily crossed the Tigris.
river.
Having said that, Rome does have insufficient troops and experience. If it is to be garrisoned, a beacon tower must be built three miles away. There is no need to garrison too many people. Three people are enough, and then the cavalry can be concentrated as a mobile unit for rescue.
.
After all, there can't be too many troops smuggling over, and in order to cover the smuggling out, it is absolutely impossible if the number of people in front of them does not reach a certain level.
In other words, a mobile force of cavalry is enough. Of course, if the illegal troops being smuggled in are illegal troops like the Army Soul Cavalry, then there is no point in saying anything.
But having said that, if the Army Soul Legion sneaks across, it will be meaningless no matter how many mobile troops you have. After all, with the combat effectiveness of the Army Soul Legion, the increased difficulty of sneaking into forced crossing is not something that they cannot solve. They are not fragile.
Skin.
After the fire on the opposite side had shrunk, the pontoon bridge had been repaired to two-thirds of the way. Before it reached this level, it could not continue to be repaired because of the fire. Now that the fire was slightly smaller, Fars Sasan made an immediate decision and ordered people to push forward continuously.
The raft entered the Tigris River, preparing to cross the Tigris River in one go while taking advantage of the current good situation.
Of course, this was before, and now, no matter how furious Fars Sasan is, he will never engage in such a useless struggle again.
It can be said that this Anxi veteran was really heartbroken. You must know that Anxi had lost nearly a thousand troops since crossing the river.
What's more important is that after Ardashir's strategic intention of smuggling across the Tigris River was achieved, Fars Sasan pushed in a raft to force the crossing after the fire diminished. This was the reason for the loss of more than 2,000 people later.
Although it was precisely because of this behavior that the Romans had no doubts at all.
But not to mention that the Romans had no doubts about An Xi. Even Zhuge Liang asked himself, would he doubt it if he was standing on the opposite side?
In fact, Zhuge Liang has no doubts. Although he will make those preparations, he will not have any doubts based on Fars Sasan's current performance.
Sometimes the best way to hide something from others is to be truthful, and Fars Sasan's current behavior reproduces that truth.
Not long ago, the Parthians took advantage of the burning oil to forcefully cross the river, and the Parthians almost touched the opposite bank.
Because two-thirds of the current pontoon bridge has been built, the difficulty for the Parthians to launch the raft has also been reduced a lot. Therefore, when the fire on the Tigris disappeared and the Romans were careless, the Parthians almost succeeded in forcing the crossing.
It was also that time that Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi and others were completely stunned. The Fourteenth Roman Legion, led by Benito, saw the Parthians trying to land on the beach, jumped directly into the Tigris River, and then rushed across the river to help the rafters
The Parthians attacked.
It was precisely because of this incredible attack method that the Parthians were defeated. Otherwise, when the last time the flames were extinguished, the Fars-Sasan side had successfully crossed the Tigris River.
"This is completely unreasonable." Zhuge Liang nudged Sima Yi with his elbow and recovered from his previous stunned state.
"There is absolutely no way we can successfully cross over!" Sima Yi said categorically, "We need to stop this stupid way. The army on the opposite side can move on the water and run directly on the water without using anything. Tell me this
how to spell?"
"General Fars, don't you know that the other party has this ability?" Zhuge Liang saw that Sima Yi was also looking crazy, and immediately turned to Fars Sasan and said.
Fars Sasan took a deep breath, suppressed the shame in his chest, looked at Zhuge Liang and said solemnly, "If I knew that the other party had such ability, I would never choose to force him to cross. Although I have heard people say that the Roman Ten
The four-combination legion is a relic of the Roman Emperor Nero. It is not super elite, but in many cases it is even worse. I used to just listen to it."
Zhuge Liang looked at the fourteenth Roman legion opposite. They could clearly hear the cheers of the Romans opposite. It was obvious that the opponent had been waiting for this opportunity.
After Zhuge Liang listened to Fars Sasan's very detailed explanation and even recounted some legends and rumors, Zhuge Liang understood it completely.
This legion is not super elite, but in some situations it is more terrifying than super elite. If such a legion is handed over to someone who knows how to use it, the destructive power caused is far greater than that of super elite.
Li You told Zhuge Liang that all military formation effects must have corresponding legion talents, as well as corresponding elite talents. This means that such a super elite legion will be very terrifying. If you can use
if.
"It seems we can only wait a little longer." Fars Sasan said with a hint of resentment. The fourteenth combined legion can walk on the water, so even the Xiliang Iron Cavalry and the army soul legion like the trapped camp may not be able to take a boat.
Can take advantage.
As long as you want to row a boat, it means that it is absolutely impossible to beat the enemy with your hands free. As long as you are still bound within a certain established range, it will be difficult for you to show your ability in the face of free attacks.
