Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Vol 6 Chapter 218: Battle of Meyaro (2)

"So let the enemy attack the town, take advantage of the special strength of our Dionyrian soldiers who are close to killing, and use these narrow streets and ruins to make the enemy's superior strength not fully utilized. This is how we made it in advance. The battle plan is the right plan, we should stick to it!" Giorgios stressed.

"But the enemy is not fooled! Waiting this way, the Syracuse did not come in, the stone bullets fired by the guns had already reached our heads!" Tegtinos shouted irritably.

"In fact, this kind of play by the Syracuse people is good for us. Didn't the spy who arrived at the port by Clippers last night? They are going to launch riots in several city-states such as Syracuse and Katane today. Maybe in the end, there is no need to fight the Syracuse people, they will be forced to retreat." Zantitipis said with some hope.

"Do you believe that those who are not courageous and who will only sneak up?" Tagantinos blurted out.

The other team officers heard this and their faces changed a little. They heard that these spies were the cronies of King Daves.

Antonios glanced at the cheeky Jephos Fennis and whispered Tagantinos: "If there is no help from Shenovis, we will easily occupy Meyaro! So fast." Get help from Sicilian! Childish!"

In fact, Antonios is also dubious about the secret letter sent by the spy, but the reality makes him have no more choices. In this strange land, it is basically a hostile force. Apart from staying in Meyaro, where can his first legion retreat! If Antrapolis’s plan is successful, of course it’s all happy!

At this time, the soldiers looking at the port rushed to report: "The head of the army, our fleet... our fleet is coming!"

Damn Sekleian finally arrived! The spirit of Antonios spurred: "Command troops to lead the families of the exiles, maintain order, and retreat to the port!"

"Yes, the head of the army." The captains and the leaders of the exiles responded in unison.

Securian didn't actually come, he was still in Lijim. Although Seklelyan is usually arrogant and does not like to be commanded by the Legion, he will never be vague at the crucial moment of the war. Not to mention yesterday, Antonio Oster sent the Clippers, risked, and rushed to Lijim, asking him: I hope that the Denia fleet will arrive in Meyaro tomorrow to deal with the Sieracuza's full-scale attack!

Seklelyn did not dare to neglect, but also specifically warned that he replaced the Fleís who led the fleet: the next day, the fleet will leave, and I will rush to Meyaro as soon as possible!

The arrival of the Dionysian fleet and the soldiers and people in the town flocked to the port, and were returned to Marcias by the detective.

After the incompetence of the angry screaming Palonissos, Mathias then asked: "Where is the reinforcements?!"

"I have already passed Sikuri and should soon be on the south bank of the Alcantara River."

"Send someone to urge them to be faster!" Macias finally gave the order: "Blow the attack number, don't let the Dionyns run!"

Yes, Mathias spent so much preparation and consumed so many guns, not only to drive away the Dionysian army that invaded Sicily, but to completely eliminate it to cheer up the tin. The morale of the Lakuza people earned fame for himself.

Due to time constraints, the Dionyns could not be allowed to board the ship and escape from the port, and then landed in other parts of Sicily. It was impossible for Marcias to let the army bypass the northern side of Meyaro, which also had traps and obstacles. It is too time consuming to attack the port to the east. As a result, the Syracuse coalition soldiers began to attack directly from the west side of the town that had been cleaned up. They crossed the wooden wall that was almost destroyed by the shells and slammed into the town.

The mighty army was divided into a stream of criss-crossing streets, and the violent radicals of the Dionyrian coalition were in trouble.

"Oh! My feet! My feet are pierced!"

"Quickly stop! Don't push forward, there is a big crater in front, the captains are all falling into the pit!"

......

The Syracuse people never imagined that the Diaonians not only made traps and obstacles outside the town, but also in the town.

In fact, this was the first day that the First Legionnaires led the exiles to make the night. Even if the secret agent without Katanay had an urgent report last night, Antonios did not intend to lead the troops to escape by boat. For him, Daves did not "have to allow him to retreat once the war is unfavorable" in the order issued before the departure of the First Corps. If he did not fight back, even if Davers looked at the past, Forgive him, and in the future he will not have any future in Diaonia.

For the soldiers of the First Legion, they considered it more simple: they have always been called "the most heroic" Legionnaires by the people of Dionia, how can they allow themselves to become timid deserters!

Anthony's premature retreat was only to lure the enemy to attack in advance. Once they entered the town and began to kill with the Legionnaires, the guns naturally did not dare to launch the stone. At the same time, he also wants to let the exiles warriors be concerned, let the army to be distracted to take care of the family to arrange the ship, so that the troops can fight with all their strength.

When the 300 cavalry of the Syracuse coalition quickly rushed to the vicinity of the port, they saw more than 3,000 exile soldiers form a phalanx, protecting the port, thousands of old people, women and children behind them. Under the order of the sailors, they rushed to the dock and stepped on the boat.

It is of course impossible for the Syracuse soldiers to attack the defensive Greek phalanx. They are only far guarded and waiting for the infantry to arrive.

However, the Syracuse soldiers at this time were scared by the frequent traps, and they proceeded cautiously and began to expand to the sides.

At this moment, the light infantry led by the seventh squad leader, Tsbbit, appeared. They did not throw arrows and throw javelins into the enemy in a cluster like the regular battle, but they hid in the ruined houses between the streets. Or kneel on the ruins, or directly on the opposite side of the big crater, attacking the enemy with precise shooting.

The Syracuse soldiers concentrated on detecting the traps on the road ahead. Suddenly an arrow flew out of the window of the side house to shoot the thighs where the soldiers did not have armor. The top roof suddenly dropped a javelin and the soldiers were too late to wear a shield. The shoulders... The Diaonian light infantry sneak attack, because of the close distance, the kill rate is extremely high.

The Syracuse people are not able to rush to the front because of the need to fight the frontal with the Dionys, and the heavy infantry in front of them has now been made by the Diaonian traps and long-range sneak attacks. Fear of heart, slower progress...

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

In the city of Medma, although the Dionyans did not attack these days, the Medma defenders did not relax their vigilance, because the day before yesterday they watched the despicable Deonians drive before being beaten in the battle. The captive Medemar and the Lockleys carried a bag of earth to fill a trench in front of the wall.

The night before, the Medma people took the rope from the wall in the dark, letting the soldiers slide down, and wanted to dig up the filled trench. Who knows that the Dionyans had prepared for it, and ambushed the light infantry not far away, so that Medma had damaged many soldiers.

The Medma people suffered this setback and never dared to go out of town. They knew that they were in danger. They only had the power to defend the city. At the same time, the Syracuse who expected the defeat could defeat the victory of Dionya. Malang got a chance.

Today, the Medma soldiers stand in the city, watching the front with vigilance: the Deonians are starting to line up in front of the city just 100 meters away, but this time the difference is that they have more fronts. The two siege devices, even within a hundred meters, still made the Medma soldiers feel their size.

"Fast! Come see! What is it?!" a soldier panicked and shouted at his companion.

"This... this should be the siege tower. I heard from the Rocky people that the Syracuse people used this device to conquer a lot of city-states."

"It seems to be higher than our walls! We... How should we deal with this kind of thing?!"

Just at the moment when the defenders were nervous and nervous, "Oh!..." The attacking army sounded through the Denia army, and the Medma siege war opened.

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

"The head of the army is careful!" The adjutant will venture to the horse in front of the wooden wall and press to go, only to listen to the strong wind of "call" ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ a stone bomb whizzing past his head.

Mattonis felt his heart licking his neck and yelling: "The **** squadron is trying to kill-"

The voice did not fall, only listening to the shock of the "bang" in front, the stone bomb hit the tower eighty-nine meters away.

The towers that the Syracuse people rushed to make were not too strong. They were hit by the 15 kilograms of huge stone bullets on the top of the tower. Not only the sawdust fell, the guards fell, but the tower shook back and tilted, accompanied by the tower top javelin The screams, the six-meter-tall tower straight to the ground...

"Great! The guns are great! Keep giving me this way!..." Matones shouted with excitement.

The adjutant rolled his eyes: I was still screaming at the artillery team, and I changed my tone in a blink of an eye.

The tower was hit to make the soldiers excited, but this opportunity is also the same. After all, the tower is too close to the wooden wall, and the stone that is shot only close to the wall, it is possible to hit the top of the tower, so the risk Too big, so the Daonian defenders are still relying more on light infantry to launch rockets, throw tanks or directly attack the top of the tower with arrows. The two towers have been burned by these methods.
