Chapter 1293: Rome is furious

The Roman army finally suppressed the Wei army into the city gate, and at the same time, a part of the Roman army rushed to the city head and started a bloody battle with the Jinyi guards on the city head. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, in the future, the Romans could not advance an inch, and the Romans were terrified by the brocade guards who regarded death as home.

At this time, the Spartan legions, the most elite of the Romans, were about to arrive at the city gates. And the dust and smoke rolled up by the Wei army's Wei army's iron cavalry are not far away.

Schneider, who was standing on the city wall, clenched his fists and looked very nervous.

A brocade guard fell in front of Nie Zhen after struggling to kill several Roman soldiers, Nie Zhen glanced at it, and a stream of blood rushed straight to his head, brandishing a big knife and rushing into the enemy soldiers again, setting off a rain of blood.

At this time, most of the brocade guards had been killed, and the rest were still dragging their crippled bodies to fight desperately, their eyes were very cold, and the Romans were roaring frantically, but there was a clear look of fear in their eyes.

"General, I'll go first!" One of the captains turned his head and smiled at Nie Zhen, who was fighting bloodily in the enemy army behind him.

Then he roared and lit the canister of fire oil hanging from his body.

With a soft pop, more than a dozen Roman soldiers were pulled into the Yellow Spring by him, and Nie Zhen was scorched to the ground by the flames.

The Jinyi guards were almost unable to resist, and the sea of Roman soldiers seemed to be endlessly sweeping towards the Wei army, and the Roman Fourth Spartan Army was already close at hand.

The Wei army's Wei cavalry finally arrived, smashed into the city gate like a whirlwind, and chiseled through the sea of Roman soldiers in one go.

The Romans, who had reached their limit of spirit, fled along the walls on both sides.

The Wei army did not pursue the collapsed Roman army, and ran straight into the Spartan army that arrived.

There was a fierce collision and fighting, and the Spartan Legion, which was not lined up, was beaten back by the Wei Army's Wei Army's iron cavalry, but the Spartan Legion soldiers were still fighting without the slightest intention of retreating.

The Spartan army entangled the Wei army's iron cavalry in the front, and the men and horses behind immediately organized a front.

The Wei army and the Wei army's iron cavalry violently attacked, wave after wave, swift and unswerving.

The Spartans were very difficult to resist, although the Spartan soldiers with huge shields and spears were born to be the nemesis of the cavalry, but the impact of the Wei army's iron cavalry was too terrifying, and it was difficult for these shield spearmen without a rigorous front to resist this kind of powerful impact that could pull out mountains and destroy mountains.

The sound of fighting resounded in the sky, the iron hooves trampled mercilessly, the swords raised a rain of blood, and the shield spearmen roared, wielding the spears in their hands desperately.

The Wei army's iron cavalry finally broke through the front army of the Spartan army with iron blood, and the iron cavalry surged away like a torrent of open gates.

At this time, a rigorous shield and spear array had formed in front of the torrent of Wei army's iron cavalry.

Ma Chao, the general of the Wei army, stared at the tiger, raised his dragoon spear and shouted: "The iron cavalry is charging into battle, there is no advance or retreat!" ”

"Kill!!" The Wei army's iron cavalry let out a roar, like a flash of thunder.

The 50,000 iron horsemen rushed towards the Spartan army like a surging torrent, and they were indomitable, as if they could urge the mountains to reclaim the sea, which was amazing.

Seeing this, the other Roman soldiers around were shocked, their faces turned pale, and they involuntarily took a step back, and they couldn't help but worry that the Spartan army would be able to withstand this amazing impact.

The torrent of iron horsemen slammed into the Spartan army line, like a storm crashing on the shore, and the heavens and the earth seemed to shake suddenly.

The Spartan soldiers roared and met the onslaught of the iron horsemen. In the loud bang, many Spartan soldiers were lifted into the sky by the huge impact force, and at the same time, many Wei army iron horsemen fell from their horses.

The scene is hot and thrilling.

The Wei cavalry repeatedly attacked several times, but failed to break through the Spartan army's shield and spear line.

Ma Chao simply gave up the direct impact and ordered 20,000 iron cavalry to guard the city gate, and the other 30,000 iron cavalry divided into several roads to sweep the city.

At the same time, Ma Chao ordered people to send a signal for support rockets.

At the same time, the Wei army outside the East Gate was storming the East City Gate.

The soldiers of the Wei army continued to pound the city like waves.

Arrows rained down on the city, and rolling stones and trees poured down like waterfalls.

Zhao Yun, who was under the command of the Chinese military marshal, frowned when he saw several signal rockets rising in the sky, but he was not surprised.

At this time, the general Zhao Tuo came to ask for instructions: "General, do you want the first army to go up?" ”

Zhao Yun thought for a moment and said categorically: "Order all the first legions to move to the West Gate to reinforce Meng Qi!" ”

"No!"

The 100,000 soldiers of the 1st Army quickly moved towards the West Gate.

When the Roman general Schneider saw this scene, he couldn't help but be shocked, and asked a general next to him urgently: "How is the situation at Simon?" Did you recapture Simon? ”

The general shook his head, "Not yet!" The Spartan Legion is fighting back! ”

"Order the Spartan legion to retake Simon within a quarter of an hour! Let the 19th Legion go for reinforcements too! ”

The general was stunned for a moment, and said worriedly: "Your Excellency General, if the Nineteenth Army reinforces Ximen, we will have no reserves!" ”

"I can't do that much now! There won't be a problem here for the time being! Go to herald! ”

"Yes!"

The Spartan army desperately attacked the 20,000 Wei cavalry defending the West Gate.

At this time, the Wei army's iron cavalry was already fighting on foot. In the current situation, foot combat is significantly much better.

The two sides fought fiercely in front of the city gates.

The Spartan regiment stormed forward with group forces.

The troops at the front of the Wei army struggled to resist, and due to the lack of heavy equipment such as tower shields necessary for the infantry to stabilize the front, the Wei army was very struggling, and the Wei army in the white-knuckle battle on the forward line was slightly inferior.

The Wei soldiers behind fired their bows at the Romans behind the front, while the Romans behind the front threw javelins at the Wei, and the soldiers on both sides fell.

The battle lasted nearly a quarter of an hour, and the Wei army retreated under the city gate to form a concave formation.

The offensive of the Roman Spartan army became more violent, constantly attacking the Wei front. At the same time, the 19th Army of the Roman Army was approaching this direction.

But they're not in a good situation!

A Wei army of 10,000 people, the iron cavalry of the Wei army entangled them!

The Wei army's iron cavalry repeatedly rushed and killed, and even the 19th Army Corps, which had 50,000 people, was scattered, and at this time, another Wei army iron cavalry also rushed over!

The 19th Roman Legion collapsed under the unstoppable onslaught of the 20,000 Wei cavalry, and fled to the city! At the same time, another Wei army had already swept the Zhishu and was raiding the Roman army's grain and grass hoards.

Let's turn our gaze back to the gates.

The Wei army desperately resisted the attack of the Roman army, and the roar was earth-shattering, and the Spartan army shouted the slogans unique to the Spartans, which were very neat, like waves of tsunamis, which was extremely amazing.

Both sides sacrificed their lives to fight fiercely, and the blood turned the originally bright moon red, and the sword light was like snow, reflecting the crazy and persistent faces of the soldiers on both sides.

A Wei iron cavalry roared and slashed at the other party, but was blocked by the other party with a shield, and then was pierced through the chest by the opponent's spear, the Wei army iron cavalry pursed his lips, and slammed into the enemy formation with his last breath, and there was a gap in the strict line of the Roman army, and the other Wei army iron cavalry saw this, and immediately rushed in, a tragic melee, and both sides paid a lot of losses.

The Wei army was about to be unable to resist.

By this time the First Legion had come closer.

Ma Chao rode alone into the enemy's thicket, and the Wei army's iron cavalry immediately launched a counterattack.

At the same time, a Wei cavalry suddenly appeared behind the Spartan legion and quickly burst into the ranks of the unsuspecting Spartan legion. The entire Spartan army line was dashed to pieces.

The two sides were caught in a scuffle, and the Spartan army finally showed a look of panic.

The First Army surged in from the West City Gate, which was still firmly under the control of the Wei army, and quickly entered the battle.

Soon, the Spartan legions were routed, and the remnants retreated to the city.

Schneider, who was commanding the soldiers to resist the onslaught of the Wei army in the east, was shocked when he heard the news of the defeat of the Spartan army and the nineteenth army.

"Your Excellency, the situation is irreparable, we must break through!" The ministry general suggested.

Schneider suddenly came to his senses, frowned, and gave a solemn order in a year of pain: "Order all armies to retreat north at once!" The cavalry team pins down the enemy forces! ”

"Yes!"

The order to retreat was given, and the Roman defenses to the east collapsed.

The Wei army poured into the city like a torrent that destroyed the embankment.

The Wei armies pursued the Romans to the north, but the speed of the pursuit was greatly limited due to the interference of the Roman cavalry.

By the time a Wei cavalry first pursued the northern city gates, almost all of the Roman troops had already fled the city.

The Wei cavalry chased out, and was suddenly ambushed by the enemy in the hills not far from the city gate, and the leading general immediately ordered to retreat.

In fact, the Roman ambush was very hasty at this time, and if the Wei army continued to attack, there was a great possibility to break the opponent's resistance and catch up with the large army of the Roman army fleeing.

The Wei cavalry turned around and joined other forces to besiege the nearly 20,000 Roman cavalry and more than 20,000 garrisons trapped in the city. Despite their best efforts, the Romans were quickly annihilated.

Schneider led the remnants of his 150,000-strong army and quickly retreated towards Dura Europos to the west. At the same time, the Roman side received the bad news that the city of Qinxi Fengcheng had been lost.

The whole court was shaken.

"How is that possible? It didn't take less than a day to lose it?! Caracalla looked angry and confused.

The ministers looked at each other, and the administrator Thomas frowned: "The specific situation is not clear! ”

Caracalla said angrily: "Revoke General Schneider and send him to Rome!" Yusuf hurried to Dura Europos to take over the command! ”

"Yes!"

"In addition, the various legions that have ordered reinforcements must arrive within three days, otherwise military law will deal with it!" Caracalla ordered in an unquestioning tone.

Caracalla's mood eased slightly, and he frowned: "Qin Xifeng is lost, and the entire eastern part of Assyria is completely exposed!" The situation is not optimistic! ”

Glancing at the ministers, "What do you think we should do now?" (To be continued.) )
