Little Hannibal faced many difficult moments, when he was in Eastern Europe, when he returned to Rome...
But in those moments, little Hannibal always believed that all caution has its meaning, and all fearlessness has its value. This creed has saved little Hannibal many times, and finally became
It has incomparable value - it is a kind of fearlessness for the hardships of this creed itself, and this value is naturally to ascend to the throne of Rome.
But now, the repeated caution, the constant denial and reworking of the battle plan have finally brought value again.
The charge of the Roman legions did not go smoothly, and the Tang Empire's army was more tenacious than they thought.
But in the end, as the battle progressed, one hour passed, and another hour passed...
It was the Tang Empire that gradually became unable to support itself.
Although the Roman legions suffered heavy losses because they were the active party in the attack and were equally exhausted, their personnel size was relatively well preserved!
At this stage, it was also because the Roman emperor was in power at this time and the morale of the army was strong. It was also because although the battle was extremely fierce and the absolute number of personnel consumed was similar to each other, but in comparison... the comparison of numbers was getting more and more...
Great disparity!
Although the Imperial Guards of the Tang Empire were brave, the loss of 500 people from 1,000 people was completely different from the loss of 500 people from 10,000 people!
And this means...
Victory is very close to you!
Not only did little Hannibal become more confident about this, but he also quietly observed that the entire Roman legion also had the same confidence, and the morale of the army could even be said to be getting stronger with the Vietnam War!
None of this guarantees a sure victory in the battle, so little Hannibal doesn't know how to win.
The strength of the troops was originally ten to one and two, but now it has become twenty to one.
What does it mean to have a large army pressing down on the territory and a dark cloud pressing down on the city?
This is called dark clouds over the city.
How can we lose? How can we lose?
Twelve hours after arriving, little Hannibal observed that although the will of both sides to fight was still strong... but the physical strength of the personnel could no longer support it, and even if they were not afraid of death, they could not continue to attack and defend, so he arranged to withdraw the troops.
But at this time, little Hannibal felt more and more confident.
Hehe, at this stage, I see what else the Tang Empire can do...
certainly!
Hannibal the Younger never ruled out the possibility of continued reinforcements from the Tang Empire, but the distance.
The distance determines that in the long sea, it is still a stormy summer.
No matter how powerful the Tang Empire was, how could they keep adding more troops here?
Besides... I have dressed up to imitate the African native tribes. I have a name here. What's going on with your Tang Empire, which is so far away and has been sending more troops here?
Of course, this is indeed a problem... Originally, it was just a one-sided statement by Xuan Chen, saying that the name of the war was very important. Only then did young Hannibal think of being wary of the Tang Empire causing trouble.
But as time went on, this thing that he didn't feel was that important at first... was always vaguely hovering in his mind, and he always felt that it was really important... Ever since, little Hannibal gradually
I also feel that maybe I should think about this matter carefully.
Of course, I didn’t think about it clearly. Of course, I didn’t figure it out all at once. But Hannibal at least noticed one thing, that is, the Tang Empire... How could they go overseas on such a large scale so easily?
of sending troops?
No matter how you think about it, this seems a bit unreasonable. They don’t need a name?
This seemingly insignificant thought clearly emerged in his mind, but in the end... after all, it had nothing to do with the war, and the war was happening, so little Hannibal put aside these thoughts for the time being and concentrated on fighting.
In short, Rome now has a great chance of winning, almost one-sided!
Just wait for the next day...
Little Hannibal was extremely excited. Although he conscientiously showed the calm demeanor of a commander and used it to comfort the soldiers in the legion, little Hannibal actually couldn't sleep all night!
And the next day...
As the sky gets darker, little Hannibal also...gradually feels that "that moment" is waiting for him ahead.
Break the camp here, defeat the Tang Empire's army, and control the entire Africa as a backing for producing food and providing slaves to Rome. This is all you have to do!
It's the day.
It was the eighth day of August in the eighth year of Zhenguan.
at dusk.
Rome and the Tang Dynasty, the first head-to-head confrontation between the two empires, finally came to the final stage...
This time, little Hannibal no longer disguised himself, put on the red robe and sterling silver armor of the Roman emperor, and "visited" the battlefield as the supreme commander.
The whole army rejoices!
Then, an order was given——
The Roman army charged towards the Tang Empire's first and last strategic point in Africa!
As the battle breaks out, this time...
Because they tried their best to fight with all their strength, the battle was no longer as anxious as yesterday, but the situation quickly changed - in the first moment, the elite knights of Rome broke through a corner of the Tang Empire's camp, and the river of silver armor was fierce
He poured it into the camp!
At the same time, the extremely large fleet of Rome and the alliance of powerful families with five surnames and seven hopes also surrounded them from the sea.
At this moment, the first overseas fulcrum of the Tang Empire became truly in danger and was about to disappear...
At this moment, even if Sun Wu were to come in person again, he would never be able to tell the slightest possibility of victory!
And it wasn't until this moment that little Hannibal really... felt relieved!
only……
Immediately afterwards, a "Huh?" came from beside me...
…
Of course, little Hannibal didn't notice this "Huh?" at first. Although his face was calm and indifferent, at this moment, little Hannibal was not really calm and indifferent, but was in the quality of a commander. In fact, he was
The light of bloodthirsty excitement was already surging crazily in his eyes, which was extremely exciting.
However, it was at this stall that the "Huh?" changed again and began to mutter to himself...
"What is that...why is there another fleet?"
"How come these ships..."
Little Hannibal was watching the movements of the battlefield excitedly. At this moment, he suddenly felt someone touching his shoulder from the side.
At first, he still didn't notice it. After all, the war was about to be won, and no one had time to pay attention to anything else.
But the voice was a little unyielding and shook his shoulders again!...
