In fact, the Roman army outside the city did not expect Zhao Yu to pull up such a large team in a short period of time, according to the description of the defeated army of the navy and the city guard, the leading general Oros concluded that the number of rebel troops would not exceed six hundred!

This judgment is not wrong, after all, in addition to the navy, Bizete Dacheng was defeated by Zhao Yu with more than a dozen people.

If you let him know that there are tens of thousands of rebels in the city now, even if most of them are unarmed, he will weigh himself and whether he can eat them.

The discipline of the Roman soldiers was very strict, more than 3,000 troops except for more than 400 cavalry, the others every 251 phalanx, a total of ten phalanxes, of which four phalanxes and cavalry pressed the formation, two phalanxes one south and one north detailed attack, four phalanxes pressed to the west gate, surrounded by three missing one, the tactics were very rigorous.

"Kill! Kill! "Every few steps forward of the Roman phalanx, it will shout to kill, increase the momentum, the closer to the city wall, the more momentum, and when it is fast forward a hundred meters, Zhao Yu ordered to shoot arrows.

There are two hundred bows and tens of thousands of arrows in the arsenal of the big city of Bisse, although the bow and arrow are not easy to use, it is still possible to defend the city, so each city will prepare some, all of them are cheap Zhao Yu, Zhao Yu sent the bow and arrows down, and equipped two hundred special archers among the newcomers, except for bows and arrows, there is no other armament.

Moreover, none of these archers have learned how to shoot arrows, Zhao Yu only has one requirement for them, just be able to shoot arrows!

"Shoot!" At the sound of an order, these recruits nervously drew their bows and arrows and shot them into the sky, and more than a hundred arrows fell into the phalanx, bringing only a few casualties.

"A rabble!" General Oros, who was half a mile away, looked at it with a sneer, these rebels were powerless to resist!

Zhao Yu was unmoved, he could kill one of them to earn, anyway, it was an arrow that he picked up for nothing.

The Roman phalanx did not speed up its pace, it was still in its original tone, and this little rain of arrows was not taken into their eyes at all!

The arrows kept shooting, and the recruits shot the arrows as fast as they could, regardless of whether they could shoot or not, whether they would strain their muscles, and after quickly shooting ten arrows, they rubbed their sore hands and retreated down the city wall and completed the task.

The Roman phalanx finally approached the city wall, and they did not use long-range attack methods, they went directly to the long ladder, and the long ladder began to be erected on the wall one by one, and the arrows only brought more than 20 casualties, and their morale was extremely strong!

"Hey, pour hot oil!" Zhao Yu looked at the Roman soldiers who came to send them to death with satisfaction, let you taste the wisdom of the Chinese!

A small part of this hot oil was collected from various families, and the slaughtered livestock oil, most of which was olive oil, was heated to a boil in a large iron pot made in an emergency, and the unarmed slaves carried it up the city walls and poured it on their heads!

The Roman soldiers, who had just climbed halfway up, screamed and rolled down the ladder, two or three hundred degrees of hot oil instantly scorched their skin, and the defense of leather chain mail against it was almost zero!

Not only that, but the area where the oil was spilled was very large, and whether it was an escalator or a shield, it was more or less drenched to the point, and they all jumped back in embarrassment!

For a time, the offensive was blocked, and the oil did not kill a single person, but it created nearly a hundred wounded, which was worthy of being a sharp weapon for defending the city.

"Raise your shield!" The commander of the battlefield gave the order again, and in addition to the severe burns, the soldiers raised their shields again and attacked again, and the siege was like that, wave after wave, and once it began, it was all out until it was overcome.

The city tower continues to sprinkle oil, this area of the Mediterranean Sea is rich in olive, olive oil is not lacking, the shield can effectively defend against hot oil, but it can not last, and it will greatly slow down the siege speed, Zhao Yu organized a group of recruits, and began to throw stones below, all of which are bigger than fists. (with iron helmet)

Such a battle lasted for half an hour, and the Roman phalanx dropped more than thirty corpses and retreated, the reason why so many people died was not only because Zhao Yu's deliberate suppression, but also because the wall was too short and the stones were not enough to kill!

"Humph! There are still many means! "General Oros ordered repairs, and then rotated to attack the city later, and after seeing the opponent's means of defending the city, he died so many soldiers, he knew that the people inside were exhausted!

This is also the information that Zhao Yu wants to reveal, paralyzing the other party, it is easy to defeat the siege troops, as soon as the gladiators go up to the city tower, throw some throwing guns, at least half of them can be killed! The siege force can be defeated, and the number of people in the opposite position is still very large, and going to attack will inevitably increase casualties needlessly.

In this way, a day passed, attacking back and forth four or five times, each time losing a dozen or twenty people, and the last time Zhao Yu deliberately did not let them pour hot oil, giving the enemy the illusion that the oil was gone.

The next day, General Oros, who attacked again, determined that the other side had no hot oil, and there were fewer stones, and finally a few Roman soldiers climbed the city wall, although they were beaten down, but this was a signal, and the other side could not hold on!

"1-4 team press! 5-8 teams ready! Today we are going to beat Bizerte, don't stop the offensive! "General Oros personally stepped forward today, less than two hundred meters away, to supervise the attack of the team.

The battle lasted for an hour, the Roman soldiers attacked the city wall several times, a few hapless recruits were killed, and the Roman soldiers under the city wall moved out of the siege and hit the wood, and more than 20 Roman soldiers began to smash the city gate one by one.

Seeing that the situation was very good, and that the front line had lost nearly half a team, General Oros immediately ordered the four teams that pressed the formation to keep up, and the two teams that attacked in detail at the same time increased their efforts!

"The time has finally come!" Zhao Yu excitedly looked at the enemy pressed on the whole line, and ordered: "Pour fire oil!" Pay attention to the sides of the pour, it is best to pour into the ditch! Leoni, the cavalry troops are divided into two ways, ready to go out of the city from the north and south gates to meet the battle, don't entangle with the siege infantry more, after leaving the city, directly hit the opposite cavalry, entangle them! ”

"Yes! Chairman! Leoni took the order, and Zhao Yu asked Friday and As, each with 300 infantry, to attack with the cavalry and destroy the two Roman phalanx soldiers in the north and south.

"Rice bucket, prepare, bring four hundred troops, and then go out of the city with me!" Zhao Yu also sent out the last bit of 'veterans', and the city was handed over to the recruits to guard, and they could still do the little thing of guarding the door.

The Roman soldiers did not know the arrangements in the city and were still trying their best to attack the city, and the hot oil mixed with the fire oil from the fallen recruits did not attract attention.

"Intensify your efforts and throw in big rocks and rolling logs!" Zhao Yu ordered again: "Point the rocket, shoot!" ”

For a while, the recruits increased their speed, and the large stones and rolling logs caught the Roman soldiers off guard, and for a time the archers shot at the city with arrows that ignited the arrows, and after a few rounds set fire to several fire oil ditches!

The flames spread like fiery serpents, soon covering an area of more than ten meters under the city walls, except for the city gates, and these flames soon ignited the soldiers' sackcloth shoes and undershirts, their leather armor, and ladders, and three or four of the eight Roman phalanxes were enveloped in them!
