Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Vol 6 Chapter 210: Guns and sieges

"Blow the offensive number and raise the sky star flag!" Sekleian gave the order again.

Although Seklelyan is determined to make progress, it is not reckless, and he knows that the establishment of the Deonian fleet is short, and the cooperation between the warships is definitely not as good as the opponent. Therefore, in order to win, the Dionysian Navy must be used in the war. Winning in the middle, the sailors have high morale and good condition, bravely rushing, single-on-one catching and killing, using high-spirited fighting spirit to defeat the enemy. If you temporarily evade as the captain of the ship said, it will not only dampen the morale of the sailors, but also the Syracuse fleet is coming. I am afraid that there are also Syracuse troops on the land that are attacking Mayo. The Nigerian fleet retreated in front of the enemy, and the friendly army ignored it. I am afraid that waiting for him after the war will not be the smile of Daveus, but the ruthlessness of the "Diaonia Army Law"!

Thinking of this, he glanced at the captain in a disgusting manner, and said very simply: "You are not suitable for the captain's position, go to the stern and look at it."

Then he ignored the captain's defense, went to the side of the ship, waved to the Clippers that accompanied the ship, and then shouted: "Tell the sailors of every ship, this is what we wear. The final battle of the Olympian Navy in this war is also their last chance to earn merits, win alliance honors and rewards, don't miss this last good opportunity!"

When the sailors of each ship sailed to Sekelian in the bottom cabin, the sailors were all excited and shouted: "To win, kill the Syracuse!!!!"

In the previous two hours of sailing, the sailors were rowing at low pulp frequency. At this time, it seemed that they had just finished the heat. Under the repeated urging of the sailors, they only finished eating the rations. Under the fierce fighting enthusiasm, The wooden paddle in the hand seems to be light. Under the command of the piper, the sailors began to speed up the pulp frequency...

At this time, some people sang Hades's songs, and soon all the sailors sang together, and the sacred and solemn lyrics were sung by them, wearing the bottom compartment and echoing on the blue sea...

When the Dionysian fleet discovered the enemy ship's trail, Syracuse's fleet naturally saw the other side. Palonissos had long waited for the work and arranged the "double column" offensive formation, so he immediately issued it. "Offensive" instructions.

It is reasonable to say that Syracuse's warships are robbing advanced attacks. Whether it is the increase in pulp speed or the increase in the speed of warships, they should be superior to each other when they are close. But in fact, at the moment of contact, the speed of the Dionian warship is slightly stronger than that of Syracuse, and the gap between the sailors in the fighting enthusiasm...

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

The vast sea surface and the constant tidal sounds concealed the collision between the warships and made the battles at sea quiet.

On land, Masias led the Syracuse coalition of about 12,000 people and has arrived on the southern bank of the Alcantara River. He did not immediately attack the town of Mayalo as Antonios expected. Command the army to stop moving forward and start the array, while driving hundreds of vehicles to the front.

The soldiers on the Meyal whistle saw so many cars, and finally knew why the Syracuse army had made such a big "rumbling" when they marched forward, and then among the noisy beasts, The sentinel saw the Syracuse soldiers move from the trailer to the next gun, and suddenly widened their eyes.

"You said that the Syracuse army has placed nearly a hundred guns on the south bank of the Alcantara River?!" Antonios heard the news and wanted to keep his mind calm, but the trembling tone could not conceal his heart. Shocked.

"Yes, the captain of the army. They have not only arranged nearly a hundred guns, but also a small number of abdominal arches!" The sentinel replied.

Antonios hasn't spoken yet, and several of the captains have said with each other: "How can there be so many guns?!"

"I am afraid that Syracuse has moved all the guns in their city. I heard his Majesty say that Syracuse was the first to invent the guns..."

"It seems that the Syracuse people are determined to destroy us completely in Meyaro!"

"That just let them know that our first legion is amazing!"

......

"Where is Syracuse's guns? Can our guns attack?" The second captain, Mr. Tiparis, asked a key question.

"...about 500 meters away from the southern wooden wall." The sentinel thought about it.

"That is to say, if Syracuse's guns use five kilograms of stone, they can just attack the wooden wall in the south of Meyaro." Giorgios immediately worried: "And our guns want to attack." To them, it is also necessary to move the rifle forward and reach the southern wooden wall. This is not conducive to the launch of the rifle, and it is vulnerable to attack. We can only have six rifles!"

Originally, the Denia corps were equipped with ten artillery pieces. However, during the battle in Crotone, guns and other equipment were left in the camp on the north bank of the Neto River, and then the army quickly marched around the West. Therefore, the First Corps simply did not have time to get back the guns belonging to its own regiment. In the end, Davers considered that the First Army’s expedition to Sicily would definitely have a siege. This was urgently from the occupation of the Syracuse camp. After collecting six fairly complete guns, they were handed over to the First Corps after an emergency repair by the engineers. Syracuse's rifle cannons are large and cumbersome. There are no gauges and other devices for ranging and calibration. The accuracy is relatively poor, but it can launch up to 30 kilograms of stone.

"It seems that the generals of the Syracuse army are very cautious and have a detailed understanding of the way we fight." Antonios also felt a little worried. He said: "Let the soldiers hide first, first through the beginning. The shelling of the artillery shells, it’s good to wait for the enemy to start attacking the town..."

When Antonios hadn't finished speaking, he heard "Boom! Boom! Boom!..." The sound of the deafening voice continued to spread, and the senior team officers in the big account were somewhat eclipsed.

At this moment, the soldiers on the wooden wall in the south of Meyaro saw such a horrible scene: hundreds of stone bullets and spears with strong winds, huge kinetic energy, and shelter from the sky. Come, it seems to be a meteorite rain falling from the sky, even if they are through a hundred battles, they are now shuddering.

"Retreat! Quickly remove the wooden wall and retreat to the back to escape!..." The team officers shouted anxiously.

Fortunately, when the Syracuse people saw so many guns in front of the front line, the officers of the First Legion began to pull down the soldiers who sent the wooden wall, just because the wooden ladder was small and the enemy was arranged. The rifle was too fast, and it caused a small number of soldiers to stay on the wooden wall.

At this time, the soldiers simply jumped down from the wooden wall aisle, and the height of only three meters did not cause great damage to them. These experienced soldiers, after landing, ignored the pain of the feet and immediately picked up the long thrown before. Shield, protect the top of the head, and even crawl back and forth, not to mention how ugly and wolverine, but the self-rescue action they made in such a critical situation is correct.

Because just as they just jumped off the wooden wall, they heard the loud noise and the whole wooden wall was shaking. Some stone bullets hit the wooden wall, and the thick wooden pillars were broken. Some stone bullets crossed the wooden wall and smashed on the mud, splashing with dust. In the diffuse dust, the more terrible are the wood chips that are broken and fluttered by the wooden walls. These hundreds of thousands of irregular small wood chips are transferred to the square with the strong force of the stone bullets. It has pierced a few of the legs, arms and arms of soldiers who have not had time to retreat to the rear, and some even penetrated the thick breastplate...

After a round of bombardment, the entire southern wooden wall was already broken. Part of the waist is broken, and the amazing big hole leaks; part of the whole wall collapses inward, revealing the gap that the enemy can break into; the several sentry towers behind the curtain wall are also crumbling...

As the soldiers slammed the stone and reloaded the stone, they rushed forward and fell to the ground.

At this moment, Leo Tizedes heard the crying not far away. As a Spartan, what he hated most was crying in wartime, because it means weakness and affects morale.

"What's going on there?!" he screamed, and immediately the soldier ran hurriedly, his voice whimpered: "The captain, the Panmanius squad leader...he..."

Leo Tizides’s heart sank and rushed over.

The soldiers saw him coming and rushed out of the way.

I saw a short spear fired from the abdominal arch directly pierced the left chest of Pamanius, nailed him to the wall of the wooden house, and already swallowed.

"Everyone blames me! I blame me! If it is not that I ran slow~www.novelmtl.com~ fell, the captain will not pull me because of running, and..." A soldier slammed his chest and burst into tears. Yourself.

Leo Tizides glanced at the soldier. He was stabbed in a wooden thorn on his thigh. The wound oozing out of the blood and dyed the entire calf: "Help him go to the back and find a medical camp to treat him."

Several soldiers went forward to hold the wounded soldier. He still didn't want to leave, but he still cried.

"Hurry up and cure my legs, come back to kill the enemy, and avenge the captain of Pamanius!" Leo Tizides snorted and let the soldier stop crying. He immediately wiped his tears and looked firm. Manuels’s body said: “The captain, waiting for me at the Hall of the Spirit!”

The injured soldier was helped.

Leo Tizides looked at Pamanius with a complex look: as his former squad leader, Pamanius gave him a lot of care and care when he first entered the army, although he later performed well. Quickly promoted to the company's captain, Pamanius became a subordinate. However, Pamanius has never been qualified, and he has been strictly and rigorously carrying out his orders. This is a respectable and outstanding team of the Daonian Army!
