Chapter 3559
Everything for His Majesty
...
With Sima Yi's planning and assistance, Vologus V's position in Parthia was unprecedented. In particular, after being carefully selected and gathered, the soldiers and people who appeared around Vologus V were the best supporters of him.
Whether nobles or commoners, even slaves living in Parthia, their views on Vologius V, under corresponding planning and assistance, were unprecedentedly consistent.
Only Vologius V could save Parthia.
With a large number of similar individuals gathering together, this idea and way of thinking become more concentrated.
Due to mutual influence, not only are people's subjective thoughts like this, but their objective thoughts are also like this.
This convergence of ideas made these soldiers more loyal and more fanatical in their devotion to Vologus V.
It was because of these loyal and fervent soldiers, and because of their support, that Vologius V made his choice.
Choosing to retreat to the protection of the Undead Guard might allow you to live a little longer, but the final outcome will not change anything.
If that's the case, then why betray these loyal and fervent soldiers?
Accompanying the loyal and brave men of this country, accompanying these soldiers who are willing to give their lives for the country, and walking together to the end of their lives, is it not also a correct choice and behavior?
"Not even a retreat?" Perennis was slightly surprised to notice that the Parthian central army banner was not retreating at all, but he quickly regained his composure and continued to intensify his offensive.
Whether Vologius V was trying to maintain the status quo or was simply burying his head in the sand, it didn't matter. As long as the Parthian central army banner was removed and Vologius V was killed, everything would be over.
As the chief bodyguard of Vologius V, he himself possessed formidable strength. Having experienced the complexities of the past, Tiritaya, having shed his former arrogance, jealousy, and pride, now diligently fulfilled his duties.
After Vologius V made his choice, Tiritaya no longer hesitated, placing the sword he had handed over at his waist and raising his spear again.
Looking at the spear in his hand, he mobilized his internal energy, his spirit and energy highly concentrated at this moment, and calmly stepped out.
At this moment, Tiritaya, who had previously felt there was no way forward and didn't even know which way to go, looked at Vologius V and became even more determined.
Even though they were no match for the Romans, and even though they had carried all sorts of shame, Tiritias made his choice for his emperor, for the Parthian emperor.
"For Your Majesty!" Tiritaya quickly mounted his horse and came directly to the side and front of Vologius V, ready to face the final moment.
They had to do everything in their power to protect Vologus V, at least until the end of their lives, and ensure his safety.
"Kill!" Perennis charged in once more, sword in hand, swiftly wiping out the remaining soldiers of Shapur's Legion. He then led the Imperial Guard, with terrifying momentum and strength, directly into Vologis V's guard. The moment they collided, Perennis noticed Vologis V atop his warhorse.
"No intention or desire to flee? Truly an excellent emperor." Looking at the chariot behind Vologis V, and then at Vologis V riding his horse without choosing to dismount, Perennis instantly understood Vologis V's thoughts. A smile appeared on his face, and he said in a serious tone, "Since you are unwilling to leave, then stay completely! To be able to kill such an excellent emperor on the battlefield is a great fortune in life."
However, Perennis's advance with the Emperor's Guard did not go smoothly.
Although the Emperor's Guard Corps completely overwhelmed Vologus V's Guard Corps in terms of basic quality and strength, Vologus V's Guard Corps remained completely unwavering in its fighting spirit.
There was no retreat, only fighting, even a desperate struggle for survival. All the soldiers gave their all, even their lives, just to stop Perennis, to stop the Emperor's Guard Legion, and to protect Vologis V.
Regardless of whether they could ultimately protect Vologis V, all the guards firmly believed that as long as they killed one more enemy, Vologis V's chances of survival would be slightly greater, even if it was only a tiny fraction.
Atlatomé, who was originally fighting the Second Auxiliary Legion and the Eighth Augustus Legion, also noticed the battlefield behind him and the Imperial Guard Legion advancing towards Vologus V.
"What? Want to retreat? With your strength, if you dare to turn your horses around and expose your backs, a single volley of javelins would be enough to inflict heavy losses on you." The commander of the Eighth Augustus Legion looked at Ataltome, who dared to turn his head to look at other places during the battle, and continued to provoke Ataltome in an extremely mocking tone.
Perennis's plans and schemes were understood by both the Eighth Augustus and the Second Auxiliary Legion.
On the current battlefield, there are very few Parthian legions that are truly capable of stopping the Emperor's Guard Legion.
The Burning Legions stationed in the central army suffered heavy losses under their attack. Even if they could gather together to provide support, how could the Burning Legions possibly stop the Emperor's Guard Legion?
The only Parthian force with both the strength and the opportunity to respond was Atlatomé's cavalry.
In other words, as long as Atlatomé's cavalry forces are held back, Perennis can kill Vologus V with great efficiency and end the war completely.
"You think you can stop us?" Atratome, who understood Vologis V's thoughts and aspirations, knew very well that Vologis V desperately wanted to create a military spirit legion.
However, even now, Atalanta still doesn't know how to become a Military Soul Legion, and even though she has the power to advance, she doesn't know how to guide it to become a Military Soul Legion.
He originally wanted to find the corresponding route and then complete the promotion to become a military spirit legion, but now his legion needs combat power, and needs combat power that can save Vologis V.
"All for His Majesty!" Having let go of her inner obsessions and released the power that had long been suppressed within her, Atalanta directly mobilized this power, completing the sublimation of the legion.
At the moment of the legion's advancement, a unique wave of will swept across the entire battlefield, and almost every Parthian soldier felt a profound resonance of their willpower. (End of Chapter)
