章節 36: Battle for Astapor
"The enemy army is well organized, the enemy general is not such an idiot" Julius Caesar...
Julius Caesar was looking at the army of 40 thousand enemy soldiers, the enemy army to avoid chaos was divided into 2 battalions of 20 thousand, the distance between the armies was short but still existed, the 15 thousand immaculate were divided equally between the 2 battalions, strengthening the front line, the battalion on the right got stronger due to the Volantis army
"We will divide our army into 6 battalions with 5,000 soldiers, square format, 10,000 archers will be behind giving support, our initial objective is to use shields and defend, our formation will maintain order while the 2 enemy battalions will fall into chaos when having to split during the fight, moreover, the battalions must support the next battalion, Hannibal you will lead to the right-wing with all your elephants, fight as you like, but keep defending the wing "Julius Caesar
"Our king will wait to enter the battle by destroying an enemy wing and capturing the enemy command center" Julius Caesar.
"Your battle plan is very good Caesar, as always" Zarudo
"Alright, I'll keep the right-wing safe and crush Volantis's" Hannibal.
========================
"What a weird formation! They split into small armies of 5,000, are they crazy? My two battalions will crush 1 to 1 easily, but which one should I attack first? They all look the same" Gratuky mo Vakan, supreme general of Astapo's army
"Vukai, are you sure you can handle these 30 elephants?" Gratuky mo Vakan asks Vukai the Volantis army general
"Don't worry, since we heard they had elephants, we made some drums, in battle these elephants will go crazy and crush Yunkai's army!" Vukai proudly states
"Ok, let's get this over with" Gratuky mo Vakan....
"start marching lieutenants" Gratuky mo Vakan after the request, he sat in a luxurious chair in the command center.
The entire army of Astapor began to march to the attack
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" Battle cries begin to be heard
500 meters, 300 meters, 100 meters, 20 meters and finally thousands of soldiers collide
At the start of the battle two of Caesar's armies came under great pressure due to the numerical disadvantage, but quickly other armies came to the rescue to match everything, 10,000 archers quickly fired at the soldiers of Astapor's army and due to the existence of 6 groups of armies it is impossible to outflank to attack the archers
Astapor's archers could not or will kill their own allies who were too close to each other, in addition the Yunkai army had strong Roman shields made by artisans.
Astapor's army on the right-wing is made up of 10,000 tiger capes, they are slave-soldiers with tiger tattoos on their faces, their battle strength and violence is very high so the pressure on Hannibal's right-wing is high
After 2 minutes of battle the situation finally changed, despite the attack initiative still with Astapor, the Yunkai army instead of walking backwards is taking steps forward, a person without military knowledge would think that Yunkai was losing due to the waves of attack suffered. , but any good general can see that it's just the opposite.
"Shit, this damn army doesn't get disorganized, when one soldier dies another takes his place" Vukai...
"Shit I underestimated Yunkai, when a trading town had such a strong army ? the information is wrong, I must inform the tiger party" Vukai...
*POMMMM POMMM* an extremely loud sound is heard from the right-wing, no doubt the elephants are joining the battle
"Fine, GET THE DRUMS AND MAKE A NOISE" Vukai orders his army, his smile not hiding that he has finally found the opportunity to change the battle.
30 elephants in golden armor mounted by Hannibal's soldiers began the march on the right-wing.
*BOMMMM BOMMMM BOMMMM* Extremely loud drums outperform loudly even out the sound of elephant steps....
the 30 elephants started to walk awkwardly, clearly annoyed, but keep going forward instead of falling into chaos.
"What the fuck is going on, why didn't the elephants stop?" Vukai yells at his soldiers
50 meters away Hannibal watched everything with a mocking smile on his face
"I've already lost a battle because of some drums to Cornelius Scipio, I'll never make that mistake again hahaha" Hannibal laughs...
Hannibal's elephants were selected only females, subjected to training to resist sounds and due to the elephant's excellent memory of having natural training above all else, the elephants' ears were completely covered with a cloth, although they were still affected by their sounds, but resistance and obedience is an extreme, the definitive division of the elephants, the greatest weapon of Hannibal Barca
*POOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM* The elephants stomped non-stop on the soldiers of Volantis, collapse and massacre define the right-wing of Astapor
"All soldiers, attack and help the elephant division slaughter the entire right wing of Astapor, BY YUNKAI" Hannibal mounts his horse and goes personally to the battlefield
On this day, the invincible general of elephants made history.
