Chapter 157: After the Break (Two Changes)
The city guards were shocked by the momentum of the underground party members, and they unconsciously retreated in the face of the slaves who were originally despised, and they were extremely frightened.
The retreat of the slaves is getting faster and faster, and if they have a few more minutes, they will be able to get out of Carthage safely!
But things are destined not to be so simple, and several guards have arrived, they are the governor's personal guards, the elite of the army, usually stationed in the governor's palace, and they also arrived in a hurry at this time, these elites are definitely not the existence that the remnants of the slaves can deal with!
"Array!" Friday also picked up the shield and sword from the corpses of his comrades on the ground, and personally lined up at the front: "For freedom!" We will never be slaves! ”
"For freedom! Never be a slave! "The momentum of the remnants of thirty or forty people is comparable to that of a large army, overpowering the two hundred personal guards who are ready to go!
"What the hell! Array, charge! Can't let them run! The captain of the guard wiped the sweat from his frighten and shouted.
The guards came out in a hurry, some of them did not even wear armor, and they did not bring a single long-range weapon, and even so, it was impossible for the slaves to withstand a charge.
"For freedom! Never be a slave! "A louder shout sounded behind him, it was the ranks of gladiators!
Seeing that there was no need for him at the city gates, Leoni immediately handed over the defense to the last four armed forces, and personally rushed over with the gladiators, who were already four hundred men, to support the friendly forces!
In fact, there are only 300 real party members, the real armed forces, 200 people go to open the way, 100 people are disabled, and the rest of the people who take over the city gate are ordinary slaves who are armed, many of whom didn't even know about the underground party before tonight!
In other words, the team here is the main force of the last palace.
The war was about to break out, and it was impossible for the guards to watch the slaves flee without moving, but the number and combat effectiveness were weaker than the opponents, and it was embarrassing to go up or not.
The confrontation lasted only a short time, and in the end there was no fighting, and the slaves withdrew from the city of Carthage under the cover of Leoni's palace and marched in a long line towards the northern mountain forest, which for a long time would become their refuge.
The troops behind the palace were also slowly retreating, and they retreated to the gate of the city, and they saw that they could go out.
"Get out of the way!" The rumbling sound of running came from far and near, and the shouting from the rear of the guards made them instinctively make way for them, and countless Roman soldiers appeared in the night!
It's the army outside the southern city!
Fortunately, it is not cavalry, and the cavalry will basically not be dispatched at night, because the vision at night is too poor, and sometimes a pothole can kill a cavalry, so the cavalry in the barracks can only be on standby, and then pursue after a while, and besides, the rebellion has more than 2,000 regular Roman infantry legions to suppress, isn't it enough?
Charge, the Roman soldiers did not hesitate, they charged towards the slaves with their shields, because there were too many people to perform, they did not line up and shoot a few rounds of short spears, but kept charging!
"Defense!" Leoni commanded with a resolute face, gladiators are not afraid of any enemy!
The torrent of Roman soldiers soon crashed into the shields of the gladiators, and the two sides began to stagger and fight, and people were killed!
"Bang!" Leoni knocked down a soldier with a shield and pierced another soldier with a spear, he was a top gladiator, dealing with these ordinary soldiers like killing chickens and dogs, while other gladiators could also deal with several times their own soldiers, but they only had four hundred, and the opponent was endless!
The gladiators were dragged under the city gates, and if they continued, there was only one result, and that was the destruction of the regiment.
On a tall house, a black figure looks down on the battlefield.
"Eh, it looks like I'm going to have to play!" A man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, wearing black armor, said: "These slaves have done a good job, and my investment is not in vain, but these elites can't be consumed here, I have to go recklessly." ”
That's right, this is Zhao Yu who put on a camouflage mask and turned himself into a face with thick eyebrows and big eyes.
He smeared his alloy armor black with washable dye, took out his crossbow, and stood on the edge of the roof to shoot at the soldiers below, which belonged to the rear of more than 2,000 Roman soldiers, and as long as there was chaos here, the battle ahead would be much easier.
Zhao Yu's crossbow range is not comparable to the current bow and arrow, plus it is a repeating crossbow, the shooting speed is also fast, and the all-steel arrows are not something that the armor of Roman soldiers can resist, so each arrow can seriously injure or kill a soldier, as for the accuracy? The soldiers were crowded on the road, and if they couldn't shoot, they could throw their crossbows.
"There are enemies on the roof!" After shooting down five or six soldiers, the gang finally knew where the attack was coming from, and they finally managed to see Zhao Yu in black, and then threw short spears at him.
Zhao Yu didn't stand there stupidly and resisted, he chose to move forward, and at the same time took out the Breaking Circle Shield and the Vampire Heavy Sword from the bracelet, and a leap of faith jumped down the three-story residential building and smashed into the crowd!
Zhao Yu's approach is very simple, that is, recklessly, relying on his two weapons and indestructible alloy armor, trying to block the Roman infantry alone!
After a period of observation, Zhao Yu can be sure of his safety, the general strength of these Roman soldiers is stronger than ordinary people, and even the most ordinary gladiators can overturn a few, which is obviously not elite.
Zhao Yu jumped down, and several soldiers below were frightened and hid aside, the height of about ten meters was nothing to Zhao Yu, his legs bent and kicked the ground, and all his strength was leaked with a roll.
As soon as he wanted to stand up straight, a few sword lights slashed in front of him, Zhao Yu raised his left hand and blocked it with a round shield, clanging, and then the blood-sucking heavy sword in his hand drew a semicircle in front of him, directly cutting off five or six calves!
The Roman soldiers wailed and fell to the ground, Zhao Yu didn't care about them anymore, but rushed towards the pile of people with a strong stride, the heavy sword in his hand slashed vigorously, completely using it as a knife, the soldiers wanted to resist, but the raised shield was split into two pieces together with the people behind him!
Zhao Yu, who rushed into the crowd, slashed left and right, no one could stop his sword light, the sharpness of the vampire heavy sword was simply unreasonable, and no weapon could stop its advance!
Similarly, there is no weapon that can bring him damage, Zhao Yu's basic shield technique is unleashed, and basically no attack can break through the defensive circle, and a few times he occasionally misses, Zhao Yu also uses the armor part to resist!
This is the crushing of equipment, the iron tools of this era are not much better than bronze, the carbon content is high and the texture is soft, and what about Zhao Yu? The armor alloy on his body is made of incredible hardness, and even the high-quality steel of the Origin World is difficult to leave scars on it!
Needless to say, the round shield has its own solid attributes, much harder than alloy armor, and the material of the vampire heavy sword is also extraordinary, and the sharp attribute is even more powerful, in comparison, the shield in the hands of the Roman soldiers is not much stronger than cardboard!
