At the same time as the Wei army withdrew, the Wei army burned the million loads of grain and grass that the Roman army had hoarded here, and the raging flames could be clearly seen more than ten miles away. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The next morning, outside the city of Dura Europos.

The Roman general Schneider led 100,000 Roman troops to fight in the wasteland, with banners and clouds, bright armor and majestic military appearance.

"General, we're ready!" General Terry came to report in front of Schneider's warhorse.

Schneider nodded, drew his sword, raised it high, and shouted: "Now is the time to witness history!" Warriors of Rome, attack!! ”

One hundred thousand Roman soldiers shouted violently, and the whole world seemed to tremble.

A force of 30,000 men, 5,000 of whom were elite Spartan soldiers, immediately pressed towards the wall.

At the same time, hundreds of catapults roared together, and whistling shells rained down on the city.

Moments later, the Roman assault force arrived under the city walls, and immediately mounted various climbing equipment on the walls, and the Roman soldiers braved the rain of arrows to rush to the walls.

The defenders of the city walls desperately threw logs and stones downward, and the Roman soldiers fell from the ladders screaming.

Suddenly, the cheers of the Romans were heard from the top of the city, and it turned out that a group of Spartan soldiers had rushed to the top of the city first.

The defenders on the walls quickly converged on this side and surrounded the Spartans, who had rushed to the top of the city, in a small area.

The Spartan soldiers were extremely brave, and they even killed the opponent in the situation of absolute adversity in numbers.

A Spartan soldier pierced a rebel soldier in front of him with a spear, and then another rebel soldier rushed from the left side with a long knife howling, the Spartan soldier glanced at him, and at the moment when the other party rushed to the front of him, he waved his shield with his left hand, and with a bang, the rebel soldier was knocked off the wall.

In the end, the Spartans were unable to hold the bridgehead position, and had to temporarily retreat in the face of the opponent's crowd tactics.

In this round of attacks, the Spartans lost more than 60 people, while the rebels lost three times this number, and in the offensive and defensive battles, this casualty ratio is extremely staggering.

The battle lasted until noon.

The Roman general Schneider ordered the army to temporarily halt the offensive in order to reorganize the offensive.

Schneider said to the generals around him: "The Seventh Army is attacking Simon with all its might!" The Eighth Legion is attacking the North Gate with all its might! The Spartan Legion is waiting at the South Gate! Do you understand? ”

"Got it!" The generals agreed in unison.

At this moment, a herald hurriedly came to Schneider and reported: "General, General Bridge's flying pigeon biography!" ”

Schneider didn't care much about taking the summons, opened it, looked at it, his face changed suddenly, and scolded angrily: "What did Bridget do? ”

Seeing this, the generals couldn't help but look at each other in surprise, and the subordinate general Terry asked, "General, what happened?" ”

Schneider did not answer, but ordered: "Order the three armies, collect the troops and return to the camp!" ”

The generals couldn't help but be stunned, and Terry asked in surprise, "General, why is this?" ”

Schneider said in a deep voice: "Let's go back and talk about it!" ”

Terry didn't ask any more, he had a vague feeling that something big had happened on Karry's side, 'Is there something wrong with the food?!' Probably not!! ’

The rebels, who were nervously waiting for another attack by the Romans, were surprised to find that the Romans outside the city had returned to camp.

I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after being surprised.

"My lord, why did they withdraw their troops?" Karen Sa's subordinate Barak asked, puzzled.

Karen Sa frowned and shook her head. Just then, the herald rushed to Karen Sa.

"General, General Xu Huang's flying pigeon biography!" The herald reported and presented a letter of summons.

Karen Sadang connected Xu Huang with the retreat of the Roman army in front of him, and his heart moved, "Could it be! He hurriedly took the herald from the herald and read it quickly.

Suddenly laughed and said, "Great! General Xu Huang really deserves to be the general of the Great Wei Empire! This battle was fought beautifully! ”

"My lord, what happened?" General Barak asked impatiently.

Karen raised the handbook in his hand and said with a smile: "Xu Huang, the general of the Great Wei Expedition to the South, raided Kari a few days ago and burned the million loads of grain and grass that the Romans had placed in Kari!" ”

The generals couldn't help but be stunned, and then turned their heads in surprise.

Barak said with a happy face: "In this way, the Roman army has no choice but to retreat!" ”

Karen Sa nodded, looked at the Roman camp outside the city, and said, "They can only retreat to the province of Osrowena temporarily!" ”

"General, what are we going to do?" Barak asked excitedly.

"Do you want to raid them as they retreat?" Another general, Dude, also said excitedly.

Karen Sa, however, shook his head and said, "No! Although Schneider is a recent general, he is definitely a difficult character! There's no way he's not going to make a perfect arrangement behind him when he retreats! ”

The generals couldn't help but think of the means he had used to attack the city in the past two days, and nodded thoughtfully.

Karen Sa smiled, "We don't have to do anything now!" Just wait for the arrival of General Xu Huang and General Zhao Yun's army! By the way, where is General Zhao Yun's army? ”

Barak replied: "This morning, General Zhao Yun sent a flying pigeon message, and they have already passed Qinxifeng!" Five days to get here! ”

The so-called Qinsiphon is a city in the eastern part of Assyria, in the central part of Assyria, more than 200 miles away from Dura Europos, where Karensa and the others are located!

Karen Sa nodded.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

The Romans retreated into the barracks.

Schneider and the other generals returned to the horde.

"General, what's going on?" General Terry asked impatiently.

Schneider glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice, "Yesterday, Kari was captured by the enemy!" ”

The generals felt a bolt from the blue!

"How is this possible?! Kari is defended by a garrison of 30,000 troops, and Kari is located in the hinterland of the province of Osrowena, on the west side of the Osroyna Mountains, and our army has heavy troops on all three roads in the Osroyna Mountains! How did the rebels get through?! "General Terry said in disbelief.

Schneider said in a deep voice, "I also received a summons just now. Three hours before the Kari attack, a gorge in the Osrowena Mountains was broken through by enemy forces! ”

The generals were stunned and incredulous. Terry was puzzled: "How can the rebels break through the defensive line of the Osrowena Pass?" ”

Schneider said: "Not a rebel! It's Wei Jun! (To be continued.) )
