132. Weak slave army

"It's the Romans! Legions of the Romans! ”

"What Romans? You make it clear. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

In the town of Crimea, the farmer in charge of reconnaissance and intelligence hurried back from the suburbs, his expression was full of panic, and in the last night, he saw a large number of Roman legions approaching here, the Roman legions were a cruel sword, he would cut off the heads of all the rebels, this is the serious psychological shadow that the legions have long caused to foreigners, to their own slaves, at this time, the terrified detective farmer was standing incoherently outside the door, speaking to the leader of the slave rebels, Batas.

"The legions of the Romans, they did not go into the mountains, but went straight here!"

Batas, the leader of the rebellious slave troops, asked again to confirm what the Scouts meant by the Romans. It's just that why the Roman legions did not enter the mountains, but rushed straight here, this Thracian Batas was completely unknown, his expression was angry with horror, obviously, he was not ready for a bloody battle with the Roman legions, he fled just to gain freedom, and now, once the Roman legions of Apis were captured again, they were not even free, not to mention their lives, and this army was not a regular legion in the first place, and the soldiers were still slaves a few days ago, and they had no combat experience.

"Damn the Romans, one of you must have betrayed me! Want to go back and be a slave again?! Want to lick the ass of the Romans and beg for lunch? Damn crumb! ”

Bartas was furious under the heavy pressure of the Roman legions, he yelled and grabbed the glass, threw it against the wall and smashed it, just escaped to enjoy the life of the King of Liberty for two days, and was about to be bloodily suppressed by the Roman army again, this feeling was like falling from heaven to hell, which made Bartas tend to collapse emotionally, he was not Spartacus, and there were not so many gladiators under him, there was nothing he could do about such a situation.

"There's no way to retreat, let all put on armor and hold on to this town, where the food can last for a week, and drive all the women and children out! Kill all that don't go out. ”

After venting his anger, the leader of the slave legions, Batas, made the decision to carry the Romans to death. Although, this is almost a dead end, but if you don't resist, you will be executed if you are captured, and maybe at the last moment of your life you can have a hearty battle with these Romans, which is Batas's last wish at this time.

This rebellion is like a meteor shower, vigorously unfolding, but it also came to an end quickly, yes, without careful planning, it is impossible to do anything great, Bartas suddenly admired Spartacus at the moment, he could fight with the Roman legions for so long, and now, it has become a problem for him to even endure a day. He had seen how Appis's Tenth Legion slaughtered the opposition in the Civil War, and how it slaughtered the barbarians who rebelled against Rome.

……

"Brothers, prepare for the siege."

After a siege was erected outside the town of Crimea, not a single rebel was seen to come out and surrender, and Appis could not wait any longer, and at dawn the next day he began to order the legions to attack the city, and the slaves killed the Roman soldiers to rebel, which was not a trivial matter, and the Romans could not tolerate such behavior. Apis knew that the extermination of Pharnacissis was as important as the suppression of the rebellious slave army.

"If someone surrenders in battle, bypass their lives."

Before the siege was approaching, Apis gave another order, but Seklas expressed his displeasure.

"Why? We should not spare every slave who rebelled against Rome! ”

"No one is born a slave, they have the right to live if they surrender."

Apis's sudden reaction surprised Sekras, while Klein on the side looked at the scene in front of him coldly, he understood that Apis, like himself, was born as a slave, and when dealing with things, Apis must be the same as himself, and he would be much gentler to those slaves than other Roman soldiers.

However, the siege still had to be carried out.

Catapults were pushed to the front line, and the ignited boulders were thrown into the air by huge catapults, and then spilled into the towns of Clifania with thick black smoke. After only a few moments, a fire broke out throughout the town, and standing on the top of the hill, you could clearly see thick black smoke rising from all over the city.

"Siege formation, forward."

After only one round of catapults, the 10th Legion formed a phalanx and advanced towards the collapsed walls. If this is the city wall, it was all made of sand, and it was crumbled by the Roman giant siege weapon.

……

"They're close!"

The guards of the Slave Legion shouted, however, the companions behind him were almost defenseless, and although they were well-dressed in armor and held the weapons of the regular army, their psychological quality and fighting skills were almost zero. This is one of the reasons why Apis was not very worried about their rebellion, because they were not Spartacus, not gladiators who had been tied up for a long time.

Since there were few people in the slave army who could use bows and spears, the 10th Legion approached the city with ease, and at the collapsed city walls, the veterans of the 10th Legion collectively pulled out their "Pirus" heavy javelins, and they could see a group of slaves almost crumbling under the silver Roman heavy javelins, and many even ran away before the javelins were thrown. The few slaves who bravely stayed behind began to resist......

Sekras was once again the first to storm the town with the most elite hundreds. In that narrow street, thirty or forty rebellious slaves pounced, wielding the same Roman daggers as the Tenth Legion, but with slashing instead of assassination......

The veterans of the 10th Legion skillfully built the shield wall in a small area, they squatted half-squatting, standing the shield on their chest, and the companions in the back skillfully put the shield on the top of the heads of the comrades in the front row, forming a temporary line of defense, and some of the military slaves even recognized their former masters when they rushed to the shield wall, and they were so frightened that they did not dare to chop the sharp short sword.

More of the slave rebels slashed like savages with Roman daggers as axes, but their attacks were all blocked by the legionnaires, and then, when the slaves were not looking, the Roman soldiers' daggers stabbed out of the gaps in the shield wall, stabbed them in the abdomen or chest, and then listened to the miserable moans of the slaves rolling outside the shield wall. The blood of the slaves soon stained the cheeks of the legionnaires...... (To be continued.) )
