Chapter 464: Rest and Perish
As Xerxes had predicted, the Romans began to harass the resting city of Palmyra on the Western Front after the Qin had completely conquered the entire ancient dynasty of Maria in just over a month. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Since Tiridadi did not know the relationship between Qin and Rome, he did not reject it when Arshak II ordered him to go east to fight the Qin army.
After all, it seemed to him that it was a little trick by Xerxes. If he were defeated at the hands of the Qin, then Xerxes's position would be strengthened.
However, more than a month later, when he learned at the same time that the Qin army's attack speed with divine help had invaded the border at the same time as Rome. Tierdardi finally felt that he had been trapped.
However, even if he found out, there was nothing he could do. The army was already on the verge of reaching the front, and now it was impossible to retreat. I can only bite the bullet.
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
Huge stones fell from the sky, and in this mountainous area, the trebuchet of the Qin army was improved to the greatest extent. There is no need to worry about running out of stone at all.
Originally, in the eyes of the resting people, the extremely strong city wall collapsed under the persistent boulder bombardment of the Qin army.
Even if some of the city walls were built relatively strongly, the unrestrained throwing of stones by the Qin army made the soldiers defending the city almost completely unconfident.
In a month's time, the Qin army advanced almost 200 miles, and the front of the troops reached Fandou, a major city in the central part of Anxi. This speed, in the eyes of Taridadi, is simply incredible.
This also made him realize for the first time that maybe it was not Xerxes who was weaker, but that his opponent was too strong.
However, fortunately, it is still too early to pay attention to the bottom of the ladder, and the fandou is indeed strong enough. It was able to withstand the trebuchet of the Qin army.
It's just that every time the Qin army throws stones, a large number of broken stones on the city wall make the army of Tili Dadi miserable.
And the Qin army, which could not be overcome with the help of trebuchets, did not rush to attack, and actually settled down outside the city.
Seeing that the Qin army stopped attacking, all the resting people in Fandou City couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Every day, I hope to face the overwhelming rocks every day, and if I don't know if I am hit, I will be hit.
In the big tent of the Qin army, many generals and officers above the rank of captain gathered together. And in the center, it is Wu Anjun Baiqi.
After such a long time, with the unsparing support of the Qin State, and with the mechanism of the Shanggong loser and the Mo family, Andong County has already changed greatly.
In today's Andong County, farming has even begun to use expensive trap beasts. So that the logistics of the Qin army can be guaranteed.
Therefore, the current Qin army can fight a protracted war with Anxi, and it is not as high as Xerxes guessed, with high logistical pressure.
"Your Majesty, how long do we have to wait for those Romans?" A middle-aged lieutenant said in a somewhat unkind tone.
Not only this lieutenant, but many other lieutenants were equally indignant.
Although the effect achieved by trebuchets was not too great, the Qin army now had many ways to conquer Fandou City in front of them in one fell swoop.
However, in order to wait for the so-called Roman Republic, it was postponed for so long. Doesn't this delay them in striving for military merit?
In today's situation, the Sabbaths still paid more attention to the Romans. Your Majesty wants to rest in peace, and at the same time wants to weaken Rome, we must wait! Bai Qi was expressionless and scolded mercilessly.
"......"
Seeing that Bai Qi was a little angry, everyone didn't dare to say more.
"You don't need to worry, it will only take three months at most, and when the time comes, not only will you be able to gain more combat achievements, but Your Majesty's goal will also be achieved." At this time, Guiguzi, who was dressed in a plain robe, said with a smile.
Listening to Guiguzi's words, the originally slightly disappointed captain had a hint of expectation in his eyes.
Bai Qi silently glanced at Guiguzi, but didn't say anything.
He was the core of the army, and it was necessary to maintain his majesty. However, Guiguzi is only a nominal prison sent by Yingzheng, so that a group of Qin soldiers will not lose their blood.
Guiguzi, who can teach many talents, can stabilize people's hearts with just one sentence.
Although the Sabbatarians are facing a great crisis in the east, it has to be said that the Sabbatarians also have a strong fighting power.
The more than 200,000 Romans had little to gain from the confrontation with the similarly similar Sabbatarians.
Time passed little by little, and due to the inaction of the Qin army, the pressure on the east side of the rest was reduced a lot.
Under the pressure of the Romans, the pressure also increased. In addition, most of the places where the two countries fought were plains, so large-scale battles almost never stopped.
It is precisely because of this that the war between Rome and Sabbath is getting deeper and deeper.
Another two months have passed, and the three-month deadline promised by Bai Qi has also arrived.
The Qin army, which suddenly attacked, almost used all the family resources. It's not just trebuchets, ladders, wells, siege engines. Even, the nine-headed magata, the organ white tiger has everything.
These, except for the Jing Yan and the like, which were temporarily built by the Qin army, the rest were all mobilized from the Western Regions County.
As soon as the Qin army's machine beasts and siege equipment took out their hands, they completely stunned the people at the bottom of the ladder.
The trap white tiger is fine, but those huge and flexible nine-headed magatama can go up the city wall, and they are simply invulnerable.
The huge Fandou City didn't even last the next morning before it completely fell.
Tyridardi, who fled in a hurry, was afraid, and cursed Xerxes and Arshak II back and forth in their hearts.
The Eastern Front was unusually defeated, and even Xerxes did not expect it. That's a heavy city in the middle of peace, and it was lost in just half a day?
Xerxes also scolded Tyridadi for his incompetence. The loss of Fandou City, such a loss has touched Xerxes's bottom line.
"Beyond that, there is only one barrier left for Apamaia!" On the top of the mountain, Bai Qi looked at the west from afar and said.
"In that case, I'm pretty much the same, it's time to complete my task......" Guiguzi on the side said softly. Before the words fell, the man had disappeared.
In Ctesiphon, due to the defeat on the Eastern Front, Arshak II immediately launched a purge of Terridade's remaining forces in Ctesiphon.
The bloody human head cast a terrifying shadow on the already panicked Ctesiphon.
Whether it is the common people or the nobles, everyone is in danger.
In the sky, Guiguzi looked down at the glorious palace below, and there was no change in his eyes.
The eastern front was defeated, and the western front was also tightened. Before the external troubles were eliminated, Arshak II was anxious and provoked civil strife. It can be said that the reign of the Aszasian dynasty over the Sabbath has come to an end.
"What people!" In the palace, a group of guards looked at Guiguzi falling from the sky in panic and shouted.
However, it was only the blood of their companions who answered them.
"Who are you!" Looking at Arshak II, who made a move without saying a word, he couldn't help but be extremely frightened in his heart.
Just now, the guard he had always been proud of had died without even getting close to the person in front of him.
"Thanks to you for cleaning the people of Tierida, otherwise, we will have a lot of trouble taking over later......"
Arshak wanted to know what the man in front of him was talking about, but alas, he never had a chance to know.
Although there were many small dynasties in Anxi, and the central rule was extremely loose, it spared no effort to defend against foreign enemies, somewhat like the former Zhou Dynasty.
However, even such a little centripetal force was also crumbling under the devastating attack of the Qin army. Coupled with the self-digging grave of Arshak II, even if Guiguzi did not make a move this time, the Qin army could easily take over the country it occupied later.
Due to the death of Arshak II, Arshak I's illness could no longer be hidden. Naturally, Taridadi became the new King of kings. It's a pity that his king of kings didn't sit for a few days.
Because, as the loyal army of Arshak II, the Western Front commanded by Xerxes learned of the death of Arshak II, and the army was scattered, and it was also defeated by the Romans.
In less than half a year, the mighty Empire of Anxi, under the joint efforts of the Qin State and the Roman Republic, became fragmented.
The empire is dead, and the hearts of the people are scattered. What awaits those small countries next is the end of annexation.
