Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Cincinnage's angry speculation: Elia, the Greek state that has been oppressed by Picosis and almost destroyed, dared to run into the territory of Picosis! After becoming a member of the Dionysian League, let these Greek widows who only know to hide in the city have the guts? ! Doesn't it know that after he has provoked Picosis, no one can save it!

He swears in his heart: After conquering Grummantum, you must destroy Elia!

But dreams come to dreams, and real problems must be solved. Although his battle was at a critical moment, Picosis had to go to the rescue immediately. Although 1,000 Elias are unlikely to break through the city of Picosis, letting them vandalize outside the city will shake the support of the people to Cincinnag. It should be noted that although Cincinnati has made his tribes an absolute advantage among the various tribes of Picosis through various means, Picosis City is not only one of his tribes, but even In his tribe, the elders and the priests were not completely concentric with him. The last time, in the defeat of Grummantum, the people have been somewhat dissatisfied. And this time Elia's invasion, he must take immediate action, otherwise let the soldiers know that just their anger will make him a headache.

He had to stop the upcoming attack again, and Gennanet led 3,000 people (2,000 for Picosis and 1,000 for other tribal warriors), and returned to Picosis City to fight for the invasion of the enemy as soon as possible. Destroy, to relieve the evil in the heart.

At the same time, the delay in the offensive means an increase in the pressure on the rations. He also sent a team of soldiers to collect food. The so-called "collection" is actually burning and looting, which forces those neutral tribes to flee into the mountains or join the Grummen map. The tribe in the south of the country, the Dionia side...

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

In Knapetia, the cannons of the Fourth Army of Dionia explode the stone bombs for most of the day, causing many cracks in the walls. The spattered gravel also killed some defending warriors, making the soldiers in the city They are frightened and have low morale.

The great leader Panguelu had to make up his mind: send troops out in the middle of the night to destroy these terrible siege weapons!

In fact, the guns themselves were not heavy. The reason why Shiloth, who had always been cautious, did not move him back to the barracks during the blackout, but only built a soil barrier in front of the squid group, and he wanted to lead the snake out of the hole.

As a result, Kna Petia’s raids were ambushed in the Fourth Army’s soldiers around the squadron, and after some murder, they were almost completely smashed.

After Pan Gelu lost hundreds of fighters, he no longer dared to act rashly.

On the second day, under the long-range fire cover of the artillery and light infantry, the soldiers and the three embankments built by the Trina people approached the ditch in front of the city, and then they began to slate the embankment 100 meters away from the city.

Then, the Kna Petia warrior was surprised to see that the three wooden towers were slowly pushed onto the already paved dyke.

These wooden towers are five meters high, plus a one-meter-high causeway, which is two meters higher than the stone wall. The upper and lower widths are two meters, and the front and rear width is three meters. It is made of wood and has wet cowhide on the outside. The bottom is a huge wooden wheel. The top is surrounded by wooden cornices. It can accommodate three or four archers. There is a suspension bridge hanging from the front and a long tail. The wooden ladder, when the siege tower is close to the city wall, the suspension bridge is laid down and placed on the wall, the soldiers can climb the wooden ladder and directly attack the wall through the tower body and the suspension bridge, making the siege easier.

The towers designed by Dionysian engineers and carpenters are relatively simple and have a single function. Compared with the giant siege tower made by Syracuse, the only bright spot is the safety of the labor. Because the top of the wheel on both sides of the siege tower has three wooden poles protruding above it, and the wooden pole above the wooden pole is extended like a roof. The person pushing the tower stands outside the causeway, just standing up and holding the wooden pole, the wooden shed They blocked the arrows from the enemy and they could concentrate on pushing the tower.

The Kna Petia warriors were shocked when the towering siege tower moved forward slowly. Although the Siege Tower has long been used in the plains of Mesopotamia, it has never appeared in the Greek world where small countries and small cities and cities are everywhere. Syracuse’s lord Dionysius took the lead in Greece. The siege technology has undergone a breakthrough innovation, but this has only just happened, and it has not been circulated, let alone closed Brutus people. They have never seen such a huge siege device, bows, rockets, javelins They don’t hurt it, but they can’t reach the stone. Maybe the Dionya’s siege weapon that can launch a stone bomb may destroy it, but Kna Petia does not, the soldiers can only Watching it approaching the moat.

Then, the archer with the heavy armor drilled the tower and climbed the wooden ladder to the top of the tower to start archery at the soldiers on the wall.

Both arrows come to the arrow. The Diaonian archers, who are high in height and protected by armor and wooden hurdles, have a clear upper hand despite the small number of people.

The Dionysian soldiers took the opportunity to fill the sand in the moat to push the siege tower to the city.

The restless Pangueru ordered his men to fight to stop the enemy's attempt, and sent people to Cosenza for help. He knew in his heart that if there was no reinforcement, Kna Petia was broken for only a few days...

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

The **** and cruel battle of the fortress took place yesterday, but it seems to have been a long time ago.

Early this morning, the team leader of the Second Army, Draco, and the first captain, Adrians, waited for a smile outside the city of Bisnia, welcoming the Diorian consul, the top commander of the whole army, Dave. The arrival of Sri Lanka.

In the welcoming team, there are also the former head of the city of Bisania, Baalilipi, Brem, the new leader of Cree, and some of the nobles of the Bisinian tribes, who are nervous, or Excited, or excited, waiting for the highest authority of Dionia.

In order to prevent accidents, Dracos ordered the fifth and sixth battalions in the city to be strictly deployed and guarded.

"Crelu, the governor of Dionia, Daves, is it really younger than us?!" Bardripy’s young nephew, Rodolf, couldn’t help but ask Clayru, the former two. People's relationship can only be said in general, but after yesterday's side by side battle, the two young people quickly became friends.

"I asked Drax, it should be true! But you don't want to see him as a young man!" Créru reminded, quietly pointing to the team members of the Third Legion: "Look at Della Are there any Dionyns in Coase? They usually face up and face us, but now they look completely different. How do you like to welcome young people!"

"Of course I understand! I heard Uncle Barry Lippi say that Daves is a descendant of a Greek god. He has never failed on the battlefield. No one in the Dionys dare to disrespect him!" Dom returned a sentence.

At this time, some soldiers rushed from the defensive camp in the east, and excitedly shouted as they ran: "Daves is coming! He is coming!"

Dracos immediately shouted: "Prepare!"

The team officers began to organize the armor, and the military and military drums also played together.

In a short while, the neat footsteps came with the slight vibration of the ground, and a long column quickly appeared in front of everyone: the front of the column was full of body armor, leather sandals, bronze armor, linen breastplate and ordinary weight The infantry is no different. Only the helmet is different. It is not a heavy Collins helmet, but a new type of iron helmet. The crown is decorated with red and purple long feathers. It is very elegant and has no protection on the front of the helmet. Both sides of the cheek have protection of the jaws, so they can be seen clearly, wide, thick eyebrows, pretty nose, chin moderate, eyes are not big but extremely godlike, looks like young but not childish, there is a relationship between majesty. His pace is big and powerful, but the speed is not too fast, it seems that the whole person is full of life and more stable...

This is the governor of Dionia, Davers? ! The curious Bisinians found the answer in the straight chest and revered eyes of the officials and soldiers of Dionia.

Davers came to Dracos in the eyes of several hundred pairs of eyes. Dracos made a clean and tidy military ceremony: "Commander adults, all soldiers of the Second Army welcome you!"

Davers immediately returned, and half-jokingly said half-heartedly: "Oh, Drax, you have a big scene! You also learned this set?"

Dracos was a little embarrassed to look at Adrians.

Davers understood ~www.novelmtl.com~ smiled: "It is Adrians' idea. It seems that the isthmus will not go away. But such a ceremony should be done after the war, during the war. Everything is simple."

If someone else talks like this, Adrians will think that this is revealing his scars, and there will be dissatisfaction in his heart. But for Davers, he carefully said and accepted: "Adult, you are right! The war is not over yet, we must take it seriously!"

Daves smiled heartily and gave Adrians a warm hug: "I was shocked when I got the news on the road. Adrian, you only took 700 people to capture the West. Nia City, it’s a bold and decisive action! Great! Awesome! You and your first team can have a single star! And the people of Dionia will be happy to tell your victory!”

This is what Adrians is happy to hear. There is nothing in my heart, and I don’t know how to respond.

Daves made a solemn ceremony to Dracos, and said: "The Second Legion not only succeeded in winning Bissia, but also successfully defended it, and conquered Brutis for our next step. I made the first effort! Dracos, I represent Deonia, thank you and the brothers of the Second Legion for their contributions and sacrifices for the Alliance!"
