Chapter 25 The Battle of the Nameless Heights Fourth, it is not easy to rub your face when you attac
In this way, these scattered soldiers attacked twice in a row, and were easily driven by Norman and Celtic troops. The morale of the army was much setback. They were already unable to fight again.
"Switch to the second team." Lili Annu frowned. Although he felt a little dissatisfied, he didn't care. After all, cannon fodder is cannon fodder, which is consumables. They were originally meant to consume the enemy's ammunition. Although it was a bit embarrassing that the enemy was beaten to pieces before they saw one of them. But at least they consumed some of their strength. Do you think so?
So, the second echelon composed of the Roman militia reserve immediately entered the war, because the mobs of the previous move out the roadblocks and paved the road with corpses. More importantly, there were only about 200 Normans, and most of the previous ammunition had been consumed, so this attack seemed much smoother than the last time. Finally, a skilled captain of the hammer soldier waved his shield and blocked the arrows flying several times, and finally met a Norman cavalry and was then slapped by the cavalry with a grim smile. Then he kicked him in the mouth, causing the guy to fall down with a javelin behind him...
However, no matter what, this also means that the stage of close combat has begun. The Norman soldiers have a good advantage in the territory. The cavalry are well equipped, and even in land battles, they can be regarded as the first-class light infantry. They lean over to kill the enemy and take advantage of them. The mountain road is narrow and the large troops cannot stretch, and they often fight one-on-one single-handed battles. The Norman army naturally takes advantage of them. Even if seventy or eighty Norman cavalrymen can defend the various mountain passes, and when they are tired of fighting, there are still reserves rotating. Both sides fought back and forth for nearly two hours. There were only a few people who were accidentally injured, and no one died.
But the Eastern Romans also had a way. After losing a group of daggers and hammer soldiers, the Eastern Romans also learned to be smart. This time, a group of javeliners were dispatched. The javeliners did not fight in close combat at all. Instead, they leaned against the trunk of the big tree on the side of the road from five or six meters away. Then a javelin was thrown over. At such a close distance, there was almost no need for a correct head, and the lethality would not change much due to gravity. The Norman glanced at the cavalry as the javelins roared, and most of them were quick to dodge or took the shield in their hands to block the Eastern Roman Javeliners. The Eastern Roman Javeliners used light javelins, but the Norman glanced at the cavalry used a composite shield made of hardwood, which might be stabbed, but pierced was absolutely impossible.
However, there are also some Norman Rou cavalry who consumed too much physical strength, or they were not so good at their own skills, so they did not avoid it or block it... More than four small battles started in this nameless highland
