Sweep the World

A complete Roman army includes its infantry, cavalry, javelin, and weaponry. They are based on a small team to form a basic organization. Upwards are regiments, battalions, and brigades. For example, the standard infantry is thirteen. Individuals are a squad, and forty to fifty people are a coalition. At the level of a hundred people, there are centurions, and thousands of people have battalions (thousands of commanders). The brigade commander is the flag officer, and the legion is the legion commander. Apex novel 　 the fastest update

A captain of a Roman legion, he actually only has the right to command battles, and the army will also have roles such as civic guards, judges, and financial officers. In fact, they all play a certain degree of military supervision and other roles. , It’s all about not interfering. Once interfering, it represents the will of Rome (the Senate in the capital), and usually the legion commander can only succumb.

The Roman military system has been changing all the time. Almost every dynasty has its own set. The result is that the military establishment of each Roman dynasty is different, but one core has not changed, that is, one for every one hundred people. Tactical team.

What Wang Meng sees now is the most basic state of the Roman army. Every one hundred people are arranged in a square formation. If they are infantry, every soldier will have a shield in one hand and a short sword in his hand. The soldiers on the front, left, and right will The tower shield in his hand was erected flat, the second-ranked soldier lifted the tower shield in his hand high, and the tower shields were interlocked with each other to form a shield wall, and all the people were chanting neatly. Step forward.

　　 "It's not much different from our shield formation." Dou'a observed it again and said, "The difference is that our tower shield is larger than them, and the weapons in our hands are longer than them."

　　The tower shield of the Han army is larger than the tower shield of the Roman army. That is a matter of height and physique. To put it simply, the basic height of the tower shield soldiers of the Han army is 1.8 meters, while the soldiers of Rome are generally 1.6 meters tall. How can a different height be a shield of the same size? The shield is too big and short to mention. stand up.

　　 "Your shield is much larger than ours." Of course Marcus Marca also knew this, and said in an enviable tone: "Your Hans have too strong innate advantages."

　　 It is recorded in relevant historical materials that the average height of the Romans is only about 1.6 meters, which is much shorter than some of the barbarians they named, but they have long beaten those people who are taller than themselves.

　　 In fact, it is quite simple. Rome is leading the barbarians in terms of technology and military system, tactical level, etc., and then there is no grassland around Rome, mostly forests and mountains, and it is difficult for the barbarians to give full play to their advantages in cavalry.

"You have so many types of infantry, there are really too many." Marcus Marka didn't think he was complimenting: "It also shows that your generals are very good, able to command so many types of troops to fight. ."

There are really many types of infantry in the Han army. Simple sword soldiers, sword soldiers, archers, spearmen, spearmen, short spearmen, and shield soldiers. With shields, they are sword and shield soldiers, sword and shield soldiers, and spear and shield soldiers. , Shield short spearmen, different arms have their own advantages, such as terrain and battle situation needs.

　　 There are many types of arms. When arranging the formation, it is necessary to reasonably arrange where each arm should stay. Any mistake in deployment will make the formation lose its original function. It is better to put the formation.

　　Marcus Marka has thought about how many times he should command the Han army. As a result, he was confused when he thought of so many units in his head, not to mention the formation and deployment of troops.

Zhu Xia has a strange phenomenon for a long time, that is, he always likes to do things from difficult to easy. For example, in terms of smelting technology, he has clearly discovered two methods of casting and forging. Casting.

In terms of military affairs, most of the ethnic groups except Zhuxia, they emphasize that the more monotonous the arms, the better. Even if it is necessary, there should not be too many arms. They should use a limited number of arms to match what they think is reasonable. The reason is One is that the arms are too mixed to command.

　　 Why didn’t the generals of Zhu Xia command the arms that were too mixed, but took it for granted instead? It's not that it was when they came into contact with the military, and then they have a lot of systematic military books to learn.

　　 For a long period of time, there was no such thing as military books for ethnic groups other than Zhuxia. Even if they wrote something about military affairs, they could only write the name in handwriting. Take Europa as an example. The well-known books of war came into the era of hot weapons. Before that, it was basically the relatives who had experience before passing it on. Usually they would only be taught to their own eldest son (first heir).

　　Of course, there are geniuses in the world, and they can do anything without systematic study. But the reason why geniuses are geniuses is because the generation rate of geniuses is too low.

　　 Most people still need to learn, and after learning that knowledge, they may not be able to use it, and there is even no difference between learning and not learning.

　　 "They don't have paper." Cai Mian tried his best to lower his voice: "Your Majesty also strictly forbids the spread of paper technology."

　　 In fact, it doesn’t matter if there is no paper, it is not a restriction that restricts the spread of knowledge. Without paper, you can also have stone molds and parchment paper, which are also tools for carrying text, but it is too troublesome to make.

"They are in the most primitive stage of the feudal system." Wang Meng said that is the key: "In their society, the nobles belong to the nobles. They do not want to be replaced by trade, but can only be taken by force. Usually, no one is willing to take themselves. Disseminate the knowledge you have, and if someone wants to share it, everyone will be offended."

　　Dou Ah understands, in fact, those who master knowledge restrict the dissemination of knowledge, and mainly want to form a monopoly, so as to always form a favorable position.

Wang Meng only mentioned the nobles. The non-aristocrats did not have the ability to protect themselves. It meant that the nobles could rob civilians even if it was not legal and reasonable. They could still operate in a circuitous way until they got what they wanted. But once the civilians wanted to get something from the nobles, it was equivalent to It is an enemy of all nobles.

　　 Cai Mian did not need to think too complicated, and said bluntly: "Collective suppression! We have also had this stage."

　　 In the pre-Qin period of the ancient times, the nobles who mastered knowledge also formed a monopoly. In fact, it was the same for a long time in the future. It only slowly opened up the channels for ordinary people to study, but some people were always able to master exclusive knowledge.

　　 It must be said that it is one thing to be willing to share, but if someone who has knowledge is forced to share, it is robbery. The weird thing is that for a long time, Zhu Xia’s culture of sharing (robbing) enjoying (robbing) was considered correct in public opinion. Anyone who could not protect their intellectual property rights would not be spared. If their things were robbed, there was nowhere to redress their grievances. Said that the general public will clap their hands and cheer.

　　 For them, the Romans just show their strength as they like to show off! Looking at it, just seeing the infantry forming a formation, and some equipment being busy assembling, there is really nothing that can arouse their interest for the time being.

　　 In terms of warfare, the Han army has been fighting for more than ten years. Even Wang Meng, who was the least on the battlefield, saw a lot of them when he went with Liu Yan to the Yandi battlefield. Speaking from the scene, he saw Rome where only a few thousand people were dispatched, and then saw those enemies who hadn't reacted to Rome now. There really was nothing that could lead to the word "fierce".

　　In any war, there will be a formation in the process, and then the soldiers of both sides will compete with each other with body, blood, will, and courage. The ultimate goal is to kill the enemy to survive. After waiting for the firearms to appear, the fighting will become more cruel and complicated.

　　 "Tortoiseshell formation, right?" Dou'a didn't hide his disdain at all: "If you meet us, focus on a few cannons and shoot, you will all belch."

　　 Come on, now there is only one company in Han that owns firearms, and even Han has only a small army of firearms. The enemy that the Romans wanted to deal with was not even a catapult.

　　 The army surrounded by the Romans(?), they just kept clamoring, and there was no real action from beginning to end, and they started to enter the defense line if they did.

　　The Han people who were watching the battle, they saw the colorful people rushing into the trenches, and they didn't understand what it means for people to squeeze into the trenches.

　　 "I thought it was to prevent the cavalry from digging the trench..." Dou A touched his chin: "It doesn't seem to be?"

They have never seen the fighting method of the Roman Legion. The cavalry in Romanesque wars has always been messy. The few Roman generals who can complete a war with cavalry at one stroke are shocked to the heavens, but they are more accustomed to using weapons. The troops continued to blast, and then used infantry to steadily advance to harvest the fruits of victory.

　　 Now, the various equipment assembled by the Romans are already attacking.

　　 The most used by the Romans were the catapults, and the things they threw were not round projectiles, but natural stones from unknown sources. Some of the stone dump trucks continued to push forward under the cover of infantry. It seemed that they stopped at range, hitting small rocks such as pebbles and launched, which meant that they would spread a large area of ​​attack.

　　 After the catapult attack, the battlefield was constantly smashed by stones. The Roman attacks caused more chaos in the enemy. Inevitably, the people hit by the stones died or were injured, making the battlefield full of screams and crying.

"We really haven't played like this." Dou'a was talking about throwing pebbles. He saw a guy hit his eyes with a pebbles with his binoculars, his eyeballs instantly exploded, and the man fell straight, lying on the ground, constantly twitching his body: " We played the iron sand cannon, which is much more fierce than this. If it is hit by the iron sand cannon, it will disintegrate directly near the distance. If you are far away, you will not have the strength to kick your legs. It will roll up like dried shrimps and howl to death."

　　Marcus Marka suddenly felt that everything was meaningless. He was one of the Romans who knew the artillery of the Han Dynasty. He had never seen the fire of the artillery, but he could know the approximate power from the description of some people.

　　Olus Syxtus Cicero, who was envoy to Han, was the only Roman person who had seen artillery fire and had seen the power of artillery with his own eyes. Later, he wrote back to the country repeatedly, in addition to requesting to purchase artillery or acquiring technology at all costs, he was to tell any Roman how terrible artillery was. The problem is that most Romans did not believe that even if they knew it, they didn’t believe it. Weili didn't even believe that there would be a sound like thunder when the artillery fired.

　　 Not only the Romans knew about the existence of artillery, but the Persians also knew that in the two countries, only those who had seen the power of artillery knew the horror of artillery as a weapon. The rest were either ignorant or fearless or did not believe it at all. They have a little similarity, they all yearn to get artillery, whether it's coveting because they know the power, or they don't believe that they want to see a joke.

Of course, the Han country wanted to block the artillery information, but it has been used on the battlefield. How could it be possible to block it? It just blocked some information that can be blocked, such as the production technology of bronze guns, the formula of military gunpowder, and some of the cores. information.

　　 Even though they didn't find it interesting or attractive, they were polite and Wang Meng and others couldn't turn around and leave. They waited for a long time and finally waited until the Roman soldiers continued to advance. It was because the equipment had destroyed the fortification in the way.

"To be fair, being able to use so many equipment is indeed rare in the world." Doua looks down on things like catapults and ballistas so much, but he won't open his eyes and talk nonsense: "In today's world, we can make equipment. There are very few ethnic groups, and the Romans have something to be proud of."

"For example, we can make ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ but not every army will match it, do Roman legions have it?" Cai Mian saw that the besieged forces finally sent troops to charge: "Mixed infantry and cavalry. Charge, my heart is really big."

That’s right, the people who were besieged, their counterattack was that cavalry and infantry mixed up and launched a charge against the Roman army. Then there were scenes that were both funny and sad. People in the same camp were often beaten by their own people. Knocked down and stepped on the horse's hoof.

"Why don't we have such an enemy?" Cai Mian said a little speechlessly: "The Huns, Xianbei, Jie people, Qiang people, Di people... The opponents we face, no matter how stupid they are, they won't let the cavalry charge together. ?"

That is East Asia has always been a monster house. If the resulting civilization is too stupid, it will definitely not survive the second year, leaving behind civilizations with merits, and absorbing the nutrients they want in repeated confrontations, and It is not only one side who is making progress.

　　 Marcus Marca, who left just now, is back, and with him is the Roman civic guard Marus Utansis.

"I'm very sorry to say that the opponent we prepared seems to be too weak." Marus Utansis is really apologetic: "We didn't let the guests see the wonderful performance. In order to show our sincerity, I will Ask Constantinople to hold a grand gladiator."

　　 Wang Meng and Cai Mian glanced at each other for an instant. They knew that the Romans were extremely fanatical in the show of gladiatorial fights, and they also knew that the gladiatorial fights held by the monarchs were usually grand, and they really felt the sincerity of the Romans.
