Before the Macedonians could organize a defensive formation, Caesar gave an order, and 2,000 cavalry immediately swept through the Gauls' ranks like a rushing flood.

Caesar shouted and was the first to rush into the crowd. His horses trampled them everywhere, and everywhere they went there was the sound of bones breaking and flesh tearing.

Caesar brandished his dagger and chopped down all the Macedonian soldiers who stood in front of him. Blood splattered everywhere, and wailings were heard. At this time, he felt as if he was possessed by a god, his eyes wide open in anger, and the expression on his face was frozen together.

His desire for victory made him explode at this moment.

The Macedonians were chopped down by his dagger one after another in front of him. The Roman general in front of them was their god of death and their nightmare. No one could stop his progress.

But the Macedonians are a nation that has experienced many battles after all. After the initial panic, they began an organized defense. The impact of the Roman cavalry was offset by the compact defensive formation of the large group. Many experienced

At this time, the old cavalry knew that charging forward would only lead to death. So they turned their horses around, avoiding the main body of the enemy's defense formation, and chased the stragglers in all directions. They were not worried about the threat of the enemy behind them, because the Roman infantry had already joined them.

onto the battlefield.

The brave Caesar made a serious mistake. He was surrounded by enemies. His horse had been hacked to death by the Macedonians, causing him to fall to the ground and had to fight on foot. Everything he could see was grass-green figures and annoying strange screams. Caesar

As he fought hard, the red around him gradually became less and less. A thought suddenly flashed through his mind: "Am I going to die heroically in this battle? No! Never! I don't want to die, I want to go back alive and bring him with me

Go back with honor."

He still fought hard, cutting down any Macedonian who tried to approach him, and used this to open a passage for himself.

Suddenly, Caesar's back was pressed against by an equally solid back. He instinctively looked back and saw that it was Yang Rui. He was not wearing armor, and his body was stained red with blood.

Yang Rui held a short sword and looked calmly. He said: "Follow me, our military formation is over there!"

Caesar is a veteran, but at this time he also exclaimed at Yang Rui's fighting power. It was a god-like power. No one could stop Yang Rui's progress. He cut a bloody path and allowed Caesar to escape safely.

body.

Caesar smiled and said: "My friend, it seems that you are really the messenger sent to me by God."

Yang Rui smiled slightly and said, "Your gods are nothing in front of me."

Antony clearly saw the besieged Caesar, and he immediately ordered the cavalry to charge a second time to rescue Caesar. Just as the Macedonians were concentrating on the Roman general and the few pitiful cavalry without horses around him, they suddenly concentrated again.

The Roman cavalry who were together came back from behind.

The Roman infantry had surrounded the remaining Macedonians, and the encirclement was shrinking step by step. The Macedonians tried to break out several times, but were blocked by the sky full of javelins and iron-wall-like shields. When the sun went down, all the Macedonian reinforcements had been

The corpses were all over the river valley. Some Roman soldiers were still wandering over these corpses, giving the Macedonians who had not yet expired another sword blow to end their suffering.

The gathering horn had sounded in the distance, and Roman soldiers gathered from all corners of the battlefield like the eagle banner of Caesar's guard. A bloody red sun hung feebly on the horizon. Yang Rui stared at the piles of Gauls' corpses.

Suddenly, I felt an unprecedented pleasure in my heart, and the energy field emanating from the corpse was also flowing into my body.

At this time, Caesar came to Yang Rui and said: "The Macedonians' trouble has been solved."

Yang Rui nodded and said: "Pompei's Southern Legion is still gathering at this time. Before they are ready, it is best to give them a fatal blow."

Caesar said: "But if we want to attack Pompeii's Southern Army, the land route must pass through Rome. I can't let a hundred thousand troops pass under the nose of Rome."

Yang Rui said: "You can cross the Adriatic Sea."

Caesar burst out laughing and said, "Where do you want me to find so many ships? The Senate controls the navy of the entire Roman Republic."

Yang Rui said: "I have prepared it for you."

Caesar was surprised and asked: "Are you ready?"

Yang Rui nodded and said: "The Queen of Egypt has sailed her fleet into the Adriatic Sea. You can take the Egyptian fleet's ship to cross the sea."

Five days later at noon, a huge Egyptian naval fleet appeared on the southern sea of ​​the Italian Peninsula. This fleet consisted of about 200 three-row warships equipped with huge bronze rams and hundreds of cargo ships. Each ship

There is an eye-catching dark blue inverted crescent logo on the sails of the ship, which looks particularly dazzling under the midday sun.

Caesar stood on the bow of the flagship. His eyes were looking at the beautiful Italy, with a peaceful expression on his face.

The fleet soon sailed into a nearby long and narrow bay without reefs. All the cargo ships docked in the shallow water, and the sailors quickly got on the gangplank. Then groups of Romans drove onto the beach one after another.

The suddenly calm beach was bustling with people. All kinds of military supplies were piled up. Hamilcar and his 6,000 Holy Legion cavalry also landed on Sicily after the infantry came ashore. As soon as they landed, he immediately gathered his troops and sent patrols to guard everywhere.

This is not a peaceful coast after all. Let them run wild.

Caesar and the last group of his guards walked onto the beach. At this time, the troops who had previously landed had already begun to move westward, marching towards Messina as originally planned.

Antony and his 2,000 cavalry were walking on both sides of the infantry. He was also deeply attracted by the beautiful scenery in the south. But he was a professional soldier after all. After a brief period of wandering thoughts, he focused his attention on the troops again. After a long time at sea

The sailing made the soldiers tired, and complaints arose one after another. Anthony rode his horse back and forth among the troops, warning the veterans to keep their mouths shut and go on their way, otherwise they would be whipped.

Caesar looked at Antony's busy figure and felt infinite pride in his heart. The excellent qualities and traditions of the Julius family were fully demonstrated in this young descendant who was only 23 years old. The bumps in the sea did not affect Antony's strong energy at all.

The marching troops rolled up dust that covered the sky. They meandered forward like a giant python. Wherever the army passed, the grass was flattened, exposing the loess below. Horse dung piled up in mountains, and the smell was choking. Neatly.

The sound of footsteps was earth-shattering and could be clearly distinguished from miles away.

Caesar stopped the busy Antony and said: "Taranto is right in front of us. I hope we can get this city tomorrow."

"Caesar, I mean to start attacking the Southern Army tonight. They will never expect that we will appear in front of them so soon. My cavalry unit can rush to the gate of Taranto when it gets dark and give them a A sudden attack. This will be easier than fighting on the battlefield, and the losses will be minimized." Anthony said with confidence.

"Okay, I hope our cavalry won't complain because of your harshness." Caesar smiled.

"They are all veterans who have fought with you for many years. They know what is most important in their hearts. The purpose of our trip is

What it is, they know it very well. Complaining is a good way for them to rest. But they will not refuse to carry out orders." Anthony said

"Okay then, leave 1,000 cavalry to cover the flanks of the infantry, and take the remaining 1,000 people with you. Let's meet at the gate of Taranto." Caesar said. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, novels are better Update faster!
