Ancient Rome: From Slaveholder to Supreme Emperor

Chapter 265: Borrowing Arrows from Grass Boats

Two hundred soldiers were sent to rescue. When they returned, there were only a dozen people. The key is that they could not even come back even alone.

Vitius and Ciro’s hearts were bleeding, and their faces were extremely gloomy.

Fortunately, they have already dealt with the wounded soldiers and cannot become Ye Tian’s bait to deal with them again.

Lost!

Almost 20,000 soldiers launched a siege battle, but they defeated and returned before even the city wall was captured, and the situation was extremely heavy.

At this station, they lost at least 1,223 soldiers and lost almost one-eighth of their troops.

That was just a charge.

“Withdraw troops, withdraw troops temporarily!

Ciro discussed with Vitius and decided to withdraw temporarily.

The fiasco has already dealt a serious blow to the morale of the soldiers, and now they must be frightened if they attack again.

At this moment, that ditch was an insurmountable gulf, and even a death line, which became an obstacle to their charge.

If you want to continue the offensive, at least you have to close this gap, or go to log and build a bridge.

Withdrawal!

-More than 10,000 people withdrew slowly, retreating mightily.

The soldiers who defended the city erupted with excitement and cheers. They were victorious, and they pushed back the enemy without a single pawn. At the same time, they beheaded a thousand and two enemies.

This is a victory, so they have 480 reasons to cheer.

“Badak, open the city gate and lead the soldiers to clean up the battlefield. All the weapons that can be recovered have been recovered!”

Ye Tian gave orders to Badak under the city.

This battle seemed to be easier than he thought.

At least they haven’t suffered any battle damage yet.

This is the advantage of the battle to defend the city. As long as the city is defended, as long as the defense is proper and the soldiers are firm, the enemy can only pile up with the corpses of soldiers and consume the lives of soldiers.

Defending the city is easy and difficult to attack.

Ye Tian doesn’t worry about the enemy’s attack at all.

What worries him a little is that after defeating Ciro and Vitius, he wants to win Campania and Samona, as well as the small town of Wiener Froome.

If he wants to win these three (cibh) places, he will face the battle of siege.

As long as it is a general, the most annoying thing is to face the battle of siege.

However, Ye Tian quickly put aside these worries for a while.

Siege can only be outsmarted!

It took a long time. Badak led the soldiers to clear the battlefield. The enemy’s corpses were all piled up and burned. However, all the iron armors on their bodies were stripped off, short swords, and spears. Arrows, javelins, etc. were all collected and brought back to the city, a lot.

After clearing the battlefield, not only did all the consumed arrows and javelins have been replenished, but on the contrary, there were a lot more.

“Badak, fill in half of the dead branches and fallen leaves in the gully. After filling in the dead branches and fallen leaves, use fuel to water the dead branches and fallen leaves so that they are all soaked!”

After clearing the battlefield, Ye Tian continued to give orders and continued to arrange traps.

He said that this gully is the boundary of death, and it has not yet caused the most terrible casualties, so it is worthy of this terrible name.

“Yes, master!!”

Regarding Ye Tian’s order, Badak and Sabak would not doubt Ye Tian’s order, and would not ask why, they would only implement it firmly.

Because they know that Ye Tian will not issue some instructions that don’t have any meaning.

Following Ye Tian to the battlefield, they witnessed too many miracles, and they learned too much. Sometimes Ye Tian made a strange command that seemed to have no bright spots, some mysterious measures, once it worked, It’s really terrible.

After spending a lot of time, Badak and the others finally completed the task, and did everything that Ye Tian explained before returning to the city.

Ye Tian went to check it personally and was very satisfied.

“All the soldiers, all make fire and cook, eat and drink well, rest well, and nourish your energy! Because tonight will be a sleepless night, you will not have any time to rest tonight!”

Ye Tian shouted solemnly to all the soldiers.

“Master, will the Allies launch an attack tonight?”

Badak humbly asked Ye Tian for advice.

“If I face such an enemy, I will definitely choose to attack at night!

Ye Tian nodded and explained: “First, they don’t have many catapults, and they cannot produce dense falling rocks. They do not cause much damage to us, because we can avoid them! Therefore, only use catapults at night to be able to play his role. There is power! Second, judging from today’s performance, they should have discovered that the javelins shot by Grenner and the gladiators are very accurate, and the power is terrible. If we go to war at night, we can only shoot blindly, archers. Also, they can only shoot randomly. As long as they are not very crowded, a lot of damage can be avoided. Therefore, if you look for a battle at night, the advantage will be much greater than that of them!!”

Ye Tian’s voice is very low, as long as the other party’s generals are not stupid, they will definitely think of these.

Therefore, the war at night is definitely much crueler than the war during the day.

“Therefore, the probability of the enemy choosing to attack the city at night is much higher. It is either tonight or tomorrow night. What we have to do is to be prepared to meet the enemy with the strongest posture!

Taking a deep breath, Ye Tian said faintly: “You warriors are more busy. While the recruits are cooking, you go find some wood to make a cross of normal height, and then bring them helmets and War armor, or put on clothes. After you have done it, when the sky starts to get dark, move them on the wall! Once the enemy attacks the city, use these wood to attract the enemy’s catapult and javelin!”

At night, although Ye Tian’s vision is also very good, he can’t do it if he wants to see the movement trajectory of the stone.

Therefore, he can only learn from the grass boat and borrow the arrow “‘to attract the enemy’s attack, and at the same time, he can confuse the enemy and create the illusion that everything is a soldier.

What Ye Tian has to do now is to prepare more and protect his soldiers as much as possible.

These soldiers were all soldiers who followed him, and they could become one of the elite corps in the future. It is really a shame to die in such a battle.

Moreover, he does not have a source of troops now, and one death will be lost by one.

“Yes, master!!”

A trace of enthusiasm flashed in their eyes, and they didn’t expect Ye Tian to be able to get along in this way. It can also be seen that Ye Tian is cruel to the enemy, but he really cherishes his own people.
