Retaliation (5)

The battle had been raging now for a few hours, the cavalry were successful in routing the opposing cavalry and had begun to nip at the Roserun armies flanks now and a again, the legionnaires meanwhile even with their cycling trick were beginning to feel the intense fatigue from sustained combat.

The front row was still fighting 10 minutes a piece roughly ever hour before pulling back meanwhile the 2nd row had split in two and was ever so slowly side stepping the formation on both sides extending the Latinium battle lines bit by bit, the exhausted Roserun soldiers were unaware of this as their own straight line began to curl around to meet this extension.

From his horse at the rear of the formation Julius could see everything as it happened.
