The siege of Aletine began in plain sight, with Antony's allied army attacking the town and large siege weapons being carried into position, and then the Roman soldiers set the tar-covered boulders on fire, and the flaming boulders were thrown into the sky with the roar of machinery, and then smashed into the city, and in a matter of minutes, the entire Aletine was on fire.

Anthony rode his horse and watched the siege unfold from the high ground outside the city. After the first round of megalithic bombardment, a huge gap was opened in the walls of the town, and a brigade of centurions, under the command of a detachment of heavy infantry, began to march towards the city. Behind them were a large number of Latin Confederates and a small number of Gallic Confederates. Bari Ali's slingers followed Antony's hoplites closely. Trying to find a suitable place for the projectile. And the city's DJ Brutus mercenaries are on standby, ready to fight back.

In this era when bows and arrows were not developed, DJ Brutus did not hire too many archers, but let all his heavy infantry assemble at the gap, and put up a fan-shaped formation, ready to surround the Anthony army entering the city.

As Caesar's former lieutenant, DJ Brutus still had a certain knowledge of combat skills, and the light infantry all stood on the tower, ready to throw spears downward, and the slingers all stood on the undamaged walls. Aim at the enemy forces as they prepare to enter the city.

"Siege formation!"

Anthony's centurion, who was sent to take the lead, shouted ahead and lined up the first centurion into the traditional "tortoiseshell formation". Soon, the enemy's stone projectiles and spears rained down on the wall of the shield like a dense rainstorm, making a tinkling sound. However, the whole team of centurians did not lose much of its strength and continued to advance steadily, such a picture was too common for these veterans of Antony, they encountered in Gaul, Spain, Germania, Greece was much more dangerous than it is now, and now, the army hired by DJ Brutus was, in their opinion, just a group of rebels composed of thieves and hooligans.

Soon, the second and third hundred-man teams appeared one after another, and in the same way, they put out the same tortoiseshell formation, moving little by little, and the whole battlefield, all of which were small phalanxes, kept advancing towards the gap in the city wall.

The centurion whistled in unison, coordinating the pace of each soldier. And in the city, DJ Brutus's mercenaries will also be nervous, looking at a large number of Roman regular troops that are about to appear behind the rubble, under normal circumstances, mercenaries will choose to flee or rebel against each other under the disparity in strength between the enemy and us, but Anthony this time, he just brought not many people, and, except for a few hundred-man teams, the others are all temporarily hired allies, which gives these Brutus mercenaries a hope of winning, so this "evenly matched" contest is launched in the city.

"Ready, brothers! We can't take someone else's money and run away! Otherwise, no one will give out a bounty in the future. ”

The cavalry captain under Brutus shouted. Despite the absence of cavalry, Brutus gave him such a strange title. Because in general, cavalry officers have higher official positions than infantry......

Soon, the first group of Antony's hoplites came into contact with Brutus's strange mercenary army, both armed with large shields and short swords, and began to engage on foot......

"Press it up!"

The battle soon became bloody, and a large number of Brutus' soldiers surrounded and attacked the Anthony hoplites, who had just entered the city, and the first centurion was even besieged on three sides. In the bloody white-knuckle battle, the Brutus soldiers who surrounded them on three sides accounted for the majority of the people, and frantically attacked the Anthony hoplites on the periphery.

Antony's veterans fought back as hard as they could, each holding their positions tightly, holding their shields to their chests, coldly stabbing their short swords from under their ribs as the enemy slashed indiscriminately, and then, looking at the painful and distorted expressions of the other party, the moment the blood stained their faces, these Roman legionnaires veterans regained their past bloody years and the meaning of their existence.

Compared with the veterans of the first team of legions sent out by Antony, although these mercenaries of Brutus were also wearing the traditional equipment of Roman legionary infantry, their psychological quality and fighting skills were far inferior to that of the other party. And this situation is exactly what these veterans under Anthony are happy to see.

After stabilizing the first wave of the offensive, the veterans began to raise their shields to fight back. Exhausted and annoyed, the shield strikes Brutus' soldiers. And stabbed out the short sword when the opponent was dizzy, many of Brutus' soldiers were disemboweled, and blood and intestines flowed all over the ground under the cold killing of Anthony veterans, and Anthony's veterans didn't even bother to unload the arms and legs of these mercenaries, but directly stabbed the opponent in the abdomen or heart with a sword, ending the opponent's life with a sword.

"Listen to my orders, press them all, don't give them time to rotate, retreat now, you will have no chance to live!"

And at the critical moment, Brutus personally commanded, must not let the soldiers collapse, this is the truth that Brutus knows well, was once one of Caesar's most powerful generals, DJ Brutus knows that at this time, only by pressing all the veterans in a small range, and constantly consuming their physical strength, can there be a chance to win.

……

Bloody hand-to-hand combat soon spread through the streets of Aletion, and more Anthony hundreds entered the city, while the still superior Brutus mercenaries held the offensive tightly, and the smell of blood made many recruits gag, even abandoning their weapons, crouching in place and vomiting, while the veterans mocked this weak behavior.

"Press! Follow me! ”

When the war was deadlocked, Brutus even drew his sword himself and fought at the front line.

"That traitor, when he assassinated Caesar, why didn't he see him so brave? In Caesar's presence, he was as timid as a mouse. Kill him! Avenge Caesar! ”

DJ Brutus's actions were not respected by the Anthony veterans, but caused the indignation of many veterans, who surrounded him and launched a fierce attack on Brutus's phalanx.

The limbs began to fly in front of Brutus, and the arms and feet of the mercenary infantry were unloaded by the veterans of the bloodthirsty Antonine Legion, which was almost a hellish nightmare, and the veterans were red-eyed, and the bright red blood continued to cover them, staining the legion veterans into bloody people.
