Naturally, this kind of technique's destructive power also had its own consequences. The ancient Roman soldiers that used this technique would also keep losing blood. Afterwards, they would weaken, and after fighting a while in close combat, they would slowly decline.
On the other hand, the Carthaginian soldiers also struck back. They held their shields and pushed with all their might. They also accumulated power through the swords in their right hands, waiting for the ancient Romans to fall and thrust through their chests.
No matter what was said, the two sides were colliding against each other as a big melee unfolded.
Swords, shields, javelins, fists, and even their heads were used as weapons to quickly greet the enemy.
Naturally, the ancient Roman light infantry at the very front suffered the most in terms of equipment.
They did not have any kind of armor at all, not even leather ones.
