At that time, Ma Chao was actually very happy. In addition, Roman soldiers continued to try to cross the Zagros Mountains, and the entire eastern area near Zagros had become a pot of porridge.
This kind of chaotic battle, which is not large in scale and not too powerful, is very suitable for Ma Chao's reckless style of leading the formation. For Ma Chao at that time, there was nothing that could let him vent his heart more than rushing through the opponent's defense line.
of anger.
Similarly, Ma Chao's status was recognized by all the Roman soldiers when he bravely penetrated his opponents and rescued the Roman soldiers time and time again.
Charge in the front and retreat in the back. There is no charge for me, only for me. Coupled with Ma Chao's almost invincible momentum and fierce and powerful charge forward, the Roman soldiers who were rescued by Ma Chao easily agreed.
He fell in love with this young commander with a cold face.
No matter what, Ma Chao was at least a heroic commander on the battlefield. Especially when he was charging at the front, the scorching golden light made the Roman soldiers feel the shock of power. They were willing to follow such a commander.
, this is the instinct of soldiers!
Ma Chao himself is one of the top cavalry commanders in the world. After forcibly crossing the boundary-breaking barrier, even taking that step with anger represents the sublimation of his essence. His legionary talents can be greatly strengthened and enveloped.
The scope has also been expanded.
In addition, Roman citizens themselves had considerable power, and Ma Chao's commanding ability successfully gained the recognition of all the Roman soldiers he rescued.
After later rescuing a large group of Roman regular troops, one of the veterans who had served as camp commander volunteered to help Ma Chao integrate the group of Roman soldiers who followed Ma Chao. Afterwards, the old camp commander selected more prestigious veterans among the soldiers and made a flag for Ma Chao.
.
Of course, this is not a real eagle emblem, but this flag means that Ma Chao has the status of legion commander because of the urgency of the matter during this war. As long as he can be recognized by the country after the war, Ma Chao will
He will become a true legion commander.
Generally speaking, for a legion commander like this, there will be basically nothing that Rome does not agree with. After all, this is a power granted by Roman citizens. Even as long as he performs well on the battlefield, when the war is over, he may be awarded for his meritorious service.
The eagle flag is farther back.
But generally speaking, 99% of the legion commanders born under such circumstances will be stuck in the position of auxiliary legion commanders for the rest of their lives. However, there are always exceptions, such as the former Twenty-Two Eagle Flag Legion, such as
Speaking of Ma Chao this time, of course Ma Chao was completely lucky.
In the month when Ma Chao became the de facto commander of the legion, Severus also turned the original small-scale test into a test of the regular army while breaking through the Zagros Mountains. The Seventh Loyalist Legion was removed from the army by Severus.
The west side of the Zagros Mountains was thrown over.
To be precise, the turning point in the battle in the Zagros Mountains also started at that time. Ardashir predicted this move in advance, and used an almost empty city plan to send Atlatome to attack the Roman Seventh Army.
Legion of Loyalists.
I have to say that Atratome is indeed one of the few pillars of Parthia in this era. Although compared to the history of Ardashir, he lived from this era to the next, and even created his own era.
, Atratome is just a falling star accompanying this terminal empire.
But even so, it cannot be denied that Atratome was worthy of the pride before the advent of the third century. Therefore, Atratome led the most elite light cavalry to fight out from the east of the Zagros Mountains to block Severus' move.
When the Seventh Eagle Banner Regiment was behind.
In fact, from a tactical point of view, this time, the Romans' sneak attack had completely failed.
The war that lasted from the middle of last year to that time allowed Atratome to quickly transform from an ordinary young man into an excellent legion commander. Similarly, the soldiers under his command also suffered from the flesh-and-blood millstone that lasted for several months.
Inside, they were strangled to an elite level.
At that time, Atratome, even if placed in the Central Plains, the headquarters under his command were the top elites. With the consciousness that he had already possessed at that time, the headquarters he led was close to the top in terms of spirit and will.
Growing to the limit.
While touching the barrier, he is also slowly accumulating his own secrets, waiting for one day to explode and reach a height that only miracles can touch.
It can be said that after Atratome led his personal guards to this extent, even Aldashir was inferior to fighting with a single legion.
After all, Ardashir is the king and the handsome man, and Atratome is going further and further on the road of general. Both sides have their own strengths, but in the end they go their own respective paths just like in history.
Naturally, the Seventh Loyalist Legion was doomed to complete defeat the moment they encountered the attack from Atratome's headquarters. After all, their opponents already had a will that could be implemented with their lives, and a will that could be burned for this country.
determination.
In addition to the lack of foundation, the combat effectiveness that Atratome's headquarters can exert is completely equivalent to the conventional combat effectiveness that the Light Cavalry Soul Corps can possess.
Even now when Atratome is going crazy, he has been able to achieve some of the military soul effects produced by his will to distort reality.
It's just that the crazy war meant that Atratome didn't even have time to settle everything down. His soldiers were being consumed, consumed crazily in this millstone of flesh and blood.
As a result, Atratome can only try its best to increase its own combat effectiveness and the legion's combat effectiveness through constant consumption, and try to retain as much of its heritage as possible on the battlefield.
The army of military souls is already promising for Atratome. Although he does not know why the military souls were created, it is not important anymore. Let's fight. It is best to shoot all the enemies and use the sharpest weapons.
Use your sword to defend your country.
The reason is not important. Survive, defeat Rome, and prevent the country from falling into the mud. That is enough. The reason, let's think about it after surviving this battle and defeating Rome.
Faced with such Atratome, let alone the Seventh Loyalist Legion, even if the Sixth Triumph Legion comes in person, the result will not change much. Atratome's personal guards are already qualified.
Let’s compete to become the strongest legion in the world.
Naturally, that battle was very miserable. If not for the reconnaissance cavalry sent by Ma Chao to detect the fighting there, identify the enemy and us, and provide rescue, the Seventh Eagle Banner of Rome would have destroyed another one here.
Already.
Although Ma Chao was beaten to death by Atratome's legion for this reason, the bright light of the sword made Ma Chao, who had been killing trumpets, awaken. The battlefield was the only meaning of his existence.
Forcibly rescued the Seventh Loyalist Legion that was almost wiped out. Even though Ma Chao's newly formed legion was cut in half for this purpose, the results were still very good.
Before his death, the dying commander of the Seventh Loyalist Legion decisively entrusted the eagle flag to Ma Chao, the current commander of the legion in Rome, after confirming that there was no more suitable candidate.
And in the name of a senator of the Senate, he demoted his title to Ma Chao, making him a glorious honorary senator of the Senate.
In addition, the battlefield situation at that time was too complicated. With the idea of being responsible for the Roman Empire and the idea of completing the tasks entrusted to him by the country and the emperor, the previous army commander directly merged the remaining soldiers of the Seventh Legion into Ma Chao's command.
Even before his death, he told the young legion commander all the missions of the Seventh Eagle Banner Corps, and handed over to Ma Chao a token representing the identity of the commander of the Seventh Eagle Banner Legion.
In order to complete the mission, he wrote a battlefield report in blood and gave it to his camp commander for him to keep. Of course, this was just more of a final insurance.
Ma Chao actually had no interest in the war between the Roman Empire and the Parthian Empire. He just came to the battlefield to vent his anger and had no interest in the objects he killed.
However, when Atratome defeated the Seventh Eagle Banner of Rome, he easily defeated Ma Chao's soldiers. Even though Ma Chao realized that the soldiers he was leading were not elite, they were defeated so easily, and were defeated by the opponent's bright sword.
The light left a scar, which caused a deep murderous intention to rise in Ma Chao's heart.
The opponent was as young as him, but the opponent's fighting power on the battlefield easily defeated him. This made Ma Chao, who had always been very arrogant, clearly understand what failure meant.
I, Ma Chao, am not only a warrior with strong strength, I am also an excellent cavalry commander. I want to fight back the feeling of being insulted by my peers on the battlefield!
With this idea in mind, Ma Chao took over the Seventh Eagle Banner Legion, formed a new Seventh Loyalist Legion from the remaining soldiers, and took over the mission of his predecessor.
Although he is not fighting for Rome, the process of Ma Chao implementing his will is highly overlapped with the mission of the Seventh Loyalist Legion. If he wants to prove on the battlefield that he is not weaker than the young commander who is almost the same as him, then it is inevitable
It is necessary to unite the troops to fight.
Ma Chao, who naturally didn't speak Roman, used his mind telepathy on a few occasions, but at other times he controlled and integrated the soldiers indifferently.
From the perspective of the camp commander who held the blood letter of the former legion commander, he was a steely man who moved forward with perseverance and silence. Although he was young, he was an outstanding young man who was worthy of the name of legion commander.
With this idea in mind, the camp commander of the Seventh Eagle Flag Corps silently recorded everything about Ma Chao as a future report. These bits and pieces of content will become a clear record of Ma Chao's performance in the future.
