Upon hearing this, Petius felt a headache: What should I do? Have the spear soldiers launch an attack on the cavalry and light infantry opposite? I'm afraid they won't catch up with the enemy and instead might scatter our formation! But if I order the spear soldiers to retreat, it will expose the flank of the Eighth Legion, placing it under the long-range attack of the Nix crossbow soldiers... Oh no, Caesar not only re-deployed the remaining cavalry but also took away the second-line soldiers of the Seventh Legion, leaving my left wing insufficiently manned; how can I hold on—wait, I still have the second-line soldiers of the Eighth Legion! And those Cretan archers!
Petius smacked his forehead sharply and shouted to his subordinates, "Hurry and mobilize the second-line soldiers of the Eighth Legion, and quickly form a shield formation in front of the spear soldiers! And you, go to the camp immediately and get those Cretan archers over here!"
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
