Chapter 538 The Complacent Roman Defender

A Roman general hesitated for a while, and finally couldn't help reminding.

After all, they are too lax like this, but if a team comes from all sides at this time, they may not even have a chance to fight back, and they will be wiped out by the whole army soon!

Although they are only a small part of the entire Roman army, and most of the main force is camped inside the defense line, what they guard is the most important front line of defense.

In the past, the reason why the Roman army was able to gain an early advantage in the battle with the Carthaginian army was precisely because of the advantageous terrain of this line of defense, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Coupled with the continuous support of the rear army, they were able to repel the Carthaginian army time and time again. .

Without this line of defense, the difficulty of the Roman army would have been reduced by more than half!

And the worst result, if this line of defense is occupied by the Carthaginians, then the advantage of being easy to defend and difficult to attack will be transferred from the Roman army to the Carthaginian army at once.

Originally, the combat effectiveness of the Roman army and the Carthaginian army were evenly matched, but after this line of defense changed hands, the geographical advantages changed.

The advantage of the Roman army is almost impossible to be the opponent of the Carthaginian army!

At that time, their entire Roman army will be like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, and life or death will be decided by the Carthaginian army.

The consequences of this are undoubtedly very serious, because once the Roman army is defeated, the entire hinterland of Rome will be exposed to the weapons of the Carthaginian army, and even advance to the capital of Rome!

By that time, Rome will really not be far from being destroyed.

"You are still young, and you have just arrived at the front line. How do you know that there are twists and turns! Sometimes, you can choose not to accept some orders from above, just like what Daqin said, you will be outside, and the king will It’s okay, we’re in the same situation.”

"Yes, in my opinion, Your Excellency Scipio is too cautious. Our Roman army is not weaker than their Carthage. In addition, my Rome has already married the powerful Qin State, so it is quite reasonable to start a war with us." So start a war with Daqin!"

"The military strength of Daqin is obvious to all. Not only are the equipment advanced and sophisticated, but the soldiers and horses are also strong and strong. There are also many experienced commanders who are well versed in military law."

"Not to mention His Royal Highness, the prince who is known as the god of war. Back then, the Qin army killed 20 of us in Rome with the help of tens of thousands of people. That scene is still vivid in my mind! The horror of the Qin army's cavalry is enough to make us Any country in the world is afraid!"

"Now that Rome is married to Great Qin, which country in the world dares to touch my Roman tiger beard? Which country is not afraid of Great Qin cavalry?

If Hannibal dared to make a slight collision, he would be looking for his own death! "

When it came to Ying Yu and the Great Qin Cavalry, all the Roman garrison couldn't help feeling reverence and even fear in their hearts.

After all, that person, that army, is really terrifying!

In his hands, the army is like an invincible magic weapon, which can always stab the enemy's weakest area every time, and then kill with one blow!

Sometimes they would fantasize that if Ying Yu was their commander in chief, maybe the capital of Carthage would have already been captured by them at this moment.

"Yes, I heard that the nobleman of Carthage immediately sent a lot of gifts to Qin after they found out about the marriage between Rome and Qin, in order to pray for forgiveness from Qin."

"Even the rulers and nobles of their Carthage have been frightened like this. Can he still fly into the sky with Hannibal?"

"So what if there is so much resentment? In the end, don't you have to sneak back to Carthage in despair?"

"Brother's analysis is really good. We have worked so hard here for so long. We live a life of tying our heads in our trouser belts every day, and we still don't have enough to eat or wear warm clothes."

"Now that we finally know that the Carthaginians are about to retreat, and the higher ups have distributed so many supplies, of course we have to relax!"

Several Roman generals sat around eating meat, drinking and chatting constantly.

They thought they had seen the situation clearly, so they didn't take the young general's reminder seriously at all.

They were still singing and dancing, and there were fewer and fewer wine jars around them, but more and more wine they drank. Therefore, it was late at night.

Most of the frontline garrison troops in Rome were drunk and unconscious, lying on the ground in a mess, snoring one after another.

Even the soldiers who had to be on duty that day were drunk. Although they couldn't say they were so drunk, their bodies were crooked and they couldn't keep their eyes open.

In such a situation, let alone observing the enemy's situation in the distance, I am afraid that even the enemy has already jumped on their faces, and they may not be able to detect it.

Therefore, the entire position does not know that the danger is coming!

at this time.

Not far from the position of the Roman garrison, a few soldiers poked their heads out, and they were overjoyed to see the Roman garrison sleeping together.

They were scouts from Carthage, and they were sent by Hannibal a few days ago to observe the situation of the Roman defenders.

Having been an old opponent for so many years, Hannibal naturally knew very well the places where Scipio most often let Roman soldiers search and raid.

However, when Scipio maintained his command, he would change his search strategy from time to time, which made it impossible for Hannibal and the others to take advantage of it.

However, Scipio is now trapped by political affairs in Rome, and he is almost in a state of semi-stocking for the Roman army.

Without the next order from the commander, Rome's defensive garrisons naturally followed suit. When searching for traces of the enemy, they still searched in the areas fixed by Scipio.

This also allowed Hannibal to find an opportunity. He appointed a few scouting soldiers who were skilled at concealment and formed a scouting team to hide on the edge of the Roman army's search area.

In the end, as expected by Hannibal, this scout team successfully avoided the sweeping search of the Roman garrison, and lurked around the Roman garrison.

Hannibal gave the scout team the task of squatting nearby for seven days. If there is still no movement from the Roman garrison within seven days, they will immediately retreat and replace them with another team to continue lurking.

And this scout team has been squatting here for six and a half days, and the dry food reserve has already been eaten, and it is obviously time to retreat.

Fortunately, Huangtian paid off, and on the last day of the retreat, they had a huge harvest!

"You immediately pass on the situation of the Roman garrison here to the army and inform Your Excellency the General."

"The few of us stay here and continue to squat, watching the movement of these Roman soldiers at all times. If the situation changes, I will immediately fire a signal flare to remind you."

The captain of the scout team gave an order to the youngest soldier among them.
