Chapter 141: The End of the Continent - The Ocean

?? Bolon and Anaxaxos, one left and one right, circled the city for half a circle, and overcame all obstacles to reach the central square.

The Britons charged again from the slope, trying to take advantage of their superiority. However, the elite samurai were overwhelmed by the rapidly advancing spear formation, and the light and heavy cavalry pursued them, and the rest of the British infantry scattered. The Macedonian cavalry went on a killing spree, destroying the enemy javelinmen and throwers. The phalanx followed closely.

They were approaching the square, and the cavalry on the other side was already waiting for the fighters in the distance. At this time, there were thousands of defenders in the central square as the last line of defense.

The Macedonian hoplites pressed forward in a heavy artillery formation, and the two armies engaged. Due to the stairs, flagpoles and stone monuments in the square, the phalanx had to be broken up, and the soldiers simply used short knives. In the open space of the square, the two armies fought to the death.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Bolons himself was the first to lead the charge. The cavalry rushed after him.

There was another crackling, the cavalry had fallen, and the follow-up allies continued to ascend. The British defenders were surrounded, and the encirclement shrank smaller and smaller. The defenders were all killed.

The final duel, fought cleanly. And very brave and bloody. The Macedonians got their wish, captured Samarabriva, and reached the edge of the Western European continent, the English Channel.

Everyone cheered the victory. Bronn suggested slaughtering the city, but Anaxachos disagreed.

Once again, the Spectre Legion has withstood the rigors of the ordeal.

Undefeated and invincible, they still maintain this honor.

The losses of the phalanx in this siege battle were quite serious, and many of the phalanxes had less than half of the soldiers left, and their combat effectiveness was weakened. Anaxaxos' lack of experience and command errors caused a degree of trauma to the legion. Fortunately, the veteran Bo Long remedied in time, not only won the victory, but also preserved the basic structure of the regiment units.

Generally speaking, the "Lion Group" group army has basically completed the task of destroying the enemy's main force. The next step was to divide the troops into three directions and occupy the remaining parts of Western Europe.

According to the plan, Anaxaxosos would continue to lead his troops westward along the coast to occupy Rennes in Gaul. The 7th Army was to start from Alesia and go directly to the west, capturing Rimon. Narpung Gaul in the south had been occupied by the First Army. The mission of the Germanic legions was to sweep away all the scattered tribes and rangers of the rebels and Gauls.

The 7th Army in the center made a beeline for Rimon, where they easily defeated the Gallic guards on the border of Aquitani and captured the enemy commander Karatakus Aduaduka.

Rimon is a small town that is a must-win city due to its geographical importance in Aquitani. It is the only way to connect the north-south passage, and it is adjacent to the Atlantic Ocean in the west, and it is a transit point for ocean navigation. It would be a good port city if it was built well, but there is not even a small fishing village in this place at present.

Oonos led his troops to the outside of the city, and the Macedonian soldiers looked at the city in front of them, which turned out to be Rimon. It had been the end of their marching plans, the western end of the continent. The crowd leaned back and laughed.

This kind of heroic romance can only be understood by those on the spot, and the meaning of it is not understood by outsiders.

"Warriors, even though the town in front of us may not be able to fit our army, we need to get this done. Quick. ”

The siege troops easily entered the city, crushing any trace of the defenders' reluctance with the overwhelming force of Mount Tai. The Gallic defenders, numbering several hundred men, surrendered with a little resistance. Oonos successfully entered and occupied Limon.

The army of the middle route arrived at the end of the Western Expedition.

The northern army was led by Anaxaxosos, the son of Oonos, who had just captured Samarobria. Anaxaxosus was young and vigorous, eager to make meritorious contributions. He advocated that the legions set out immediately.

"March to Rennes.

Now, the Gauls were empty and defenseless in Western Europe. The exploits of our Lianke City are just around the corner. ”

"There are no Gallic forces here, and that's why they don't have to worry about it. Wren is an isolated city, and even if they are given a year, they will not develop many troops.

To the north of us, on the contrary, is the home camp of the Britons, who have the strength and conditions to counterattack. Besides, Samarabriva is under our control, and if the inhabitants are not convinced, there may be chaos.

We are making steady progress, and for now we will be stationed here first, so that the legion can be replenished and cultivated, and the barbaric British inhabitants of the city will be intimidated and obedient. And then it's not too late to go and occupy Rennes. ”

"General, please do not reply. You are too conservative, we are not a combat style. ”

So Anaxaxosus marched west along the coast with the Spectre Legion, as far as Wren, the central town of Amolika. The Gallic stragglers along the road bravely saw the Macedonian legion turn around and ran, and they did not even have the courage to fight. They really don't have that kind of strength at this time.

When the young general led a large number of men and horses to the outside of Rennes, the soldiers and civilians in the city were dumbfounded, and everyone knew that there was no point in resisting at all. The town guard Brenus took the initiative to go out of the city to surrender, and the soldiers and civilians of Rennes saw that the town guard knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, and they also went out of the city to meet the conqueror.

Anaxaxos laughed wildly, glanced triumphantly at his lieutenant Bolon, and swaggered into the city. Bronn was calm, and he felt that there was nothing to be happy about. The occupation of Rennes was a matter of time, and it was a matter of time.

In this way, by this time, the Macedonian kingdom has ruled over the entire European continent except for the Iberian Peninsula, including large swathes of the Siberian wilderness.

In terms of its territory and influence, Macedonia had become an empire.

But for the radicals in the kingdom, there is no end to the conquest. Where is the end of the world, where is the end of conquest. The radicals were none other than none other than King Aloyous, Prince Oonos of Macedonia, Prince Podare Rios of Macedonia. The three of them unanimously chose to go on the offensive.

Of course, the war on the front line is not over. The southern force of the "lions", the Germanic legion led by Sigimo, encountered the Gallic troops in the area of the Gallic border between Aquitani and Narbong.

This force was a Gallic reinforcement from Cumberena. Passing through here, it must have been to reinforce Alesia. Sigimo's mission was to block and intercept the Gallic reinforcements.

The Germanic legion had no siege artillery, and the legion's engineering corps was drained by Oonos. The long-handed attack consisted of only two archers in a squad and a squad of light javelinmen.

This Macedonian army was small, numbering around three thousand. But it is very distinctive, the cavalry is all Germanic, using spears and other heavy cavalry equipment. Their phalanx is more like a Germanic phalanx, with some elements of a Macedonian phalanx.

Sigimo was well aware of the operational nature of his legion, and he needed to fight quickly in close combat, interspersed with outflanking, and make the most of the Germanic cavalry charge.
