Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Vol 5 Chapter 51: Assault Grummantum

Thinking of Dave's possible strategic plan in the future, Zanti Tiris took a breath: "Tormid, it seems that I can't escape the battlefield for the rest of my life!"

"At least you don't have to worry about not being the head of the army, or even the veteran of the Senate!" said Tolmid, excitedly.

..............................

Grummantum is a mountain town. Unlike the hills occupied by Amendola Lara, which are less than 200 meters high, the hills occupied by Grumendum are about 300 meters high.

The wooden wall of the first city of Grummentum was built at the foot of the mountain. After the great leader of Akpi, it expanded greatly, and the surrounding small tribes were annexed, incorporated, and moved into the city of Grummantum. No, the city has to be expanded further, which has doubled the floor area of ​​Grumendum City, and the entire city is divided into three parts: most of the outer city is newly moved. The tribe was inhabited; the inner city was inhabited by a tribe that originally belonged to Grummantum; the core area was the top of the mountain, and there was also a wooden wall, which was inhabited by the tribe of the great leader. In the most prosperous period of Grummantum, there were nearly 30,000 residents in Gwangju.

However, after the Dafus mercenary defeated the Lukaria tribe coalition, Akporu was seriously injured, Lusau lacked prestige, it was difficult to qualify the various tribes of Lumentum, and because of Pecosius In the outbreak of war, some tribes in the Grummantum territory began to flee. After Cincinnag seized Grumman Tum, in order to control the whole city, he used the plan to earn the leader of the city and the people who did not obey him. It also led to everyone’s self-risk, and they were separated from the Germans. This city, so that the population of the city is greatly reduced, the number is not enough to defend this big city. So after the declaration of Potentia, Cincinnag moved all the residents into the inner city and burned the outer walls and houses.

After the Potentia became the new owner of Grumendum, they did not rebuild the outer city. At this time, the inner city has three gates of east, west and south, and the north is a cliff.

The initial deployment of Borat was: 500 members of the Potentia warriors stationed in the three gates, followed by the tribes of the original Grummantum, and then the generals of Lusau, not only as The reserve forces in the event of war, while also monitoring the movements of these tribes, once there is a riot of the riots, up and down the attack, you can easily calm the war, and the core area of ​​the mountain top by the Bolete rate of 500 Potentia elite warriors, living High command.

It was only after this deployment was executed that it was destroyed. The destroyer was Lusau. After his strength was enhanced, he did not want to listen to the orders of Poulter. In particular, he had been defeated by Cincinnage and was almost caught in the city. Therefore, he strongly urged to guard a city gate area.

Pollett was finally forced to help, let Lusawu stationed in the South Gate. And because Lusau’s oppression of the city’s people forced the tribes in the city to reluctant to live in the Nancheng District, they were more concentrated in the Dongchengmen District.

For the current situation in the city, Poulter is very clear and deeply disturbed, but his prestige and strength are not enough to shock the increasingly fascinating Lusau, and because of the chaos of Lusau, it also caused Potentia. People's dissatisfaction, they have the same kind of learning, so that he gradually can not control the group of soldiers from the various tribes of Potentia. The anger of the residents in Grummantum is increasing day by day. Pole feels like sitting in the crater. This sense of crisis made him finally decide to send people back to Bottia, accusing him of his current Difficulties, and asked to transfer Lusau, while adding more Potentia fighters to stabilize the situation in Grummentum.

After finally making this decision, Pollet seems to have relaxed a lot. In the past two days, he actively visited the whole city, and because of the rudeness of the East Gate, he reprimanded his leader.

On this day, Polett’s return to the top of the mountain was close to dusk. He felt hungry, so he let the guards roast the leg of the lamb, and took the pot of wine, ready to eat and drink.

Just then, he vaguely heard the shouting of the mountain. You know, this mountain town is a few hundred meters high, and you can hear the sound of the mountain at the top of the mountain.

Bolet’s look changed suddenly. He immediately rushed out of his residence and was on the sentinel who rushed to the letter: “The leader, there are enemies in the siege! The Grummantum in the city attacked our soldiers!”

"What?!" The sentinel's words were like a blue sky, which made Pollett horrified.

...........................

At dusk, it was the time for the soldiers to eat. The Potentias ate their cheese and beef and mutton, and vented their dissatisfaction with the leader, Pollett, who could toss them up in the next two days.

When they were full and sullen, the horn sounded suddenly. When the leaders and team officers anxiously drove the soldiers out of the camp, many people still did not believe that the war was so sudden. Coming is coming.

They hurriedly picked up their weapons and reorganized the queue.

The enemy's attack is very fast. When he just rushed out of the jungle and was exposed to the sights of the city's sentinels, he quickly approached the east, west and south of the city of Grummantum as quickly as possible...

The sentinels on the wooden wall of the East Gate looked at the enemies in front of the mountains and were forced to gather in several narrow mountain roads leading to the gates under the constraints of the undulating hills, the dense wooden fences and the deer. .

At this time, if a large number of arrows and javelins are thrown, those densely enemies will be seriously killed. However, the dozens of arrows that fell in the enemy's array, but they couldn't look down on the big waves.

"Fast! Fast! Hurry!! The enemy is forced to come up!!" The soldiers on the head of the city anxiously turned back and urged the teammates who were still honing under the city. Suddenly his voice stopped suddenly: at the top of the Potentia camp, A team of several hundred people held a spear, lined up, and rushed down.

It is a reinforcement sent by the Grumman Tum! The warrior in the city was slightly relieved, but what happened next made him stunned.

The team slammed into the city and was rushing to prepare for the Potentia back team in the city. The mouth shouted: "Go to hell! Damn Potentia pig!..." The Potentia warrior who is overwhelmed...

The screams and shouts rang into one, and the city was in a mess...

And taking advantage of the chaos in the city, the enemies outside the city have reached the city. They threw the sacks filled with dirt into the ditch, and soon filled out a road, then rushed under the wooden wall and put on a Long ladder...

The Potentia fighters resisted stubbornly, and most of them were fighting in the city with the clan warriors of Grummantum. There were not many soldiers on the wall. The enemy did not care about life and death, and continued upward assault. It didn’t take long for the enemy to kill the city. ......

........................

At the top of the mountain, Pollett saw the influx of enemies on the east wall of the mountain. The defense line was in danger. The heart was extremely anxious: "You hold my wolf teeth and immediately tell Lusau, the East Gate crisis, let him send a part. The soldiers go to help defend the East Gate, otherwise the enemy will be killed in the city, and everyone can't run!"

"Yes, the leader!" The guards took the tension and took the order.

Watching the guards rushing down the mountain, Polite was not at ease, and sent people to order the 500-wave Tentia fighters stationed on the mountainside to rush to the East Gate.

After the order was issued, Pollett temporarily relieved his breath and had time to calm down and think: Where did the enemy come from?

Is it a Picosis? Can they send so many fighters just after a big defeat?

Is it a Diaonian? As soon as he associates with the powerful Greek city-state alliance in the south, Pollet feels a tight breath. Even though Potentia is not adjacent to Dionia, the pressure from the south has been felt from time to time, not only because of its strength, but more importantly, the Lucanias do not reject this with Greece. People-oriented alliance, this is the most terrible! This terrible situation made it impossible for the Lukarias to work together against this outsider! This is also why the stable Pu'am finally made up his mind to win the Grummantum, only to strengthen himself, can compete against this amazing speed of expansion. Therefore, when Puamott left, he repeatedly focused on the movement of the Dionysian League. www.novelmtl.com~Polet is of course very important. He sent two hundred warriors of this tribe to guard. Tao, also sent a spy to the south, want to monitor the movement of Niutum, only because Niutumm is heavily guarded, set up checkpoints in many places, blockade of the north channel, the spy is not able to return.

Now, there is no unusual news about the camps that guard the martyrdom, and the enemies of the siege are all Lukanian costumes, making Bolot’s suspicion only stay in Diaonia for a while, then move toward The last suspicious object - Galaguso, as the most ancient tribe of the Lucania region, enjoys the mountains rather than the flats, away from the heart of the Lucania region, in the mountains of the northeast. The city of Galagusso has been built, and it has rarely participated in disputes between other tribal associations for decades, and has refused to join other tribal alliances, even outside the Union of several Lucania tribes. When Akpi was in the south of Lucania, he did not go to the idea of ​​it. Was this conservative Garaguso changed the tradition?

......

At this time, the eastern wall was occupied by the Danonian soldiers. They did not rest and continued to march into the city.

At the forefront is the 500 mercenaries led by Zantiparis, and another 500 mercenaries led by Tolmid, guarding Niutum.

Behind the mercenaries were 1,500 Lucania soldiers led by Litoru, one of the third legions of the Third Army Corps. The attack on Simon was the 2,000 soldiers led by Xima, and the battle in front of the South Gate was 2,500 soldiers led by Bagul personally. Bagul almost allocated the troops on average. The reason why this is a last resort is that the city of Grummentum is built on the hills. The houses are crowded, the mountain roads are narrow, and too many troops are concentrated in one place, which not only does not exert its power, but instead It is easy to cause congestion and affect the offense.
