Thank you, Sir. Here is the thing.

Sometimes i have to execute a number of substitutions over and over again
from testing, inspection to confirmation, which covers various aspects of
various combinations(e.g. historical characters of Proto-Indo-European).
Just like:
=============================
%s#_piechar1_#u̯#g
%s#_piechar2_#œ̄#g
%s#_piechar3_#i̷#g
%s#_piechar4_#x̿#g
%s#_piechar5_#y̥#g
.....
%s#_piecharn_#t̞#g
=============================
So I usually save/modify/keep these commands in a file, test them one by
one. After verification,  I copy all of them into a register(e.g. register
w) and then run them in command-line as follows.
:@w
:@0
....
:@:
:@@
Unfortunately all the above operations were failed if the command(s)
contain(s) combination(s).
