The inhabitants of the Italian peninsula watched in horror as the Spartan soldiers, most of whom were dressed like civilians except for a red cloak on the back, drove through their villages with their heads held high. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The Spartan soldiers marched into the Italian peninsula as victors, and at the same time, they rightfully enforced the rights that only the victors had!

The logistics transport brigade composed of Roman soldiers and prisoners transported the huge Spartan army supplies, but Li Liguo did not feel that his food and grass were enough for the time being, and everywhere he passed, all the Roman villages and towns that had no resistance and had to submit to the feet of the Spartan army had teams of Spartan soldiers to collect food, and also asked them to hang the Spartan kingdom's eagle flag!

Not performing?

Li Liguo's favorite is this kind of Roman town, those Roman towns with low walls, Li Liguo only needs to spread out the archers of the Fifth Legion, and then shoot them intensively for a few rounds, and then transfer a Spartan army with a serious overstrength to charge the city......

Every time he encountered such a stubborn Roman town, those Spartan legionnaires rushed to encourage their officers to ask the Spartan king for his life, and the fighting enthusiasm made Li Liguo very ashamed......

Even if they had to give a share of the spoils to the archers of the Fifth Legion, the Spartan soldiers were happy to slaughter and loot!

Li Liguo's order, as always, was in line with his impression on Europeans, and all Romans who rebelled against the Kingdom of Sparta (that is, Roman towns that did not provide food and grass and hoisted the banner of the eagle) would be punished with the severest punishment!

Well, this punishment is death!

After every Roman town breached, there was not a single male civilian alive in the Spartan soldiers!

Women were all captured by Li Liguo, who made full use of his resources, and used them as military skills!

This act undoubtedly greatly deepened the pain and resistance of the Romans, but for the legionnaires of the Kingdom of Sparta, it was a very direct way to boost morale!

Those Spartan soldiers shouted the slogan "Long live Sparta" whenever they had fun, this kind of life was simply a paradise that they could not have imagined before, their work was just too easy, killing, eating meat, drinking, playing with women!

All of them are the 'careers' beloved by these illiterate low-level soldiers!

Li Liguo used the resources of the Italian peninsula to raise the morale and loyalty of the Spartan legionnaires to a new peak!

Those Spartan soldiers firmly believed that with the great conqueror, the Spartan king Li Liguo, they would be invincible and enjoy the prosperity of the world!

This is a wise monarch and even more a generous master, for whom the Spartan soldiers are willing to fight, even to the point of death!

With the encouragement of both material and spiritual, with the prestige of victory in the decisive battle against the Western Roman Empire, Li Liguo successfully condensed the 100,000 Spartan army into a real army with Li Liguo's personal charm as the core!

In addition to a slight lack of combat experience and training, this army is no weaker in courage and morale than those so-called elite Roman legions!

Strict military discipline and unshakable personal prestige have naturally created a temporary invincible army!

The Romans were not inactive when Li Liguo marched into the hinterland of the Italian peninsula, the Western Roman Empire almost emptied its treasury, and took advantage of the Romans' passion to resist the invasion and formed several Roman legions to block the Spartan army layer by layer!

It's a pity that it is not difficult for the people of the Italian Peninsula to pull up the Roman legions, but it is not possible to achieve them in a short period of time if they want to make them as good as the elite Roman legions who have been fighting abroad all year round!

In particular, the kingdom of Sparta, with its cluster of archers already famous in Europe, was a nightmare for the hastily assembled Roman legions!

No Roman legion could maintain its formation under the projectile of the 20,000 archers of the Spartan army, and the Roman legions without formation could not resist the charge of the Spartan hand-to-hand combat legion with high morale and more combat experience!

Those weak scum newly formed Roman legions not only failed to stop Li Liguo, who had a clear goal, but also played a role in training the Spartan army......

War is undoubtedly the best catalyst for the elite, and when the Spartan legionnaires drove all the way to the city of Rome, these Spartan soldiers, who were not much different from the recruits in the last decisive battle, had become a division of a hundred battles!

The Western Roman Empire, which had been repeatedly defeated in the face of the Spartan army, was on the verge of collapse......

The Western Roman Empire, where only two main Roman legions were left to defend the city of Rome, was permeated with an atmosphere of despair from top to bottom, and many upper-class figures moved to secretly communicate with the Spartans in order to keep their wealth and status!

Of course, when the Spartan army first arrived in the city, the people in Rome did not make any actual moves, after all, there were still two regular Roman legions and many Roman "militia" groups that had temporarily distributed weapons.

They seem to have a glimmer of hope?

Tens of thousands of prisoners of soldiers who had served the Western Roman Empire, driven by the fierce Spartan soldiers, carried large and small sandbags, and under the long-range weapons of the overwhelming Roman garrison, they began to fill the moat paved with blood!

The defenders of Rome were not merciless in killing their own people, and in the moat of Rome there was not only an ever-increasing amount of mud and sand, but also countless human corpses!

In just a few days, Li Liguo was surprised to find that the number of prisoners used to fill the river was not enough!

The 'militia' of the city of Rome don't know what their hand-to-hand combat ability is, but the distance of shooting arrows and throwing stones or something fully reflects the strength of the outnumbered people, and under the unilateral attack, the moat was not filled, and the first step was dyed into a river of blood!

This also reflects how well the defensive equipment in the city of the Western Roman Empire is prepared, and it is indeed worthy of the nest that the Roman Empire has operated for hundreds of years!

But it doesn't matter, there are not enough people, just catch it, and the Spartan army, with not enough prisoners, stopped its suicide reclamation operation and began to drive towards the hinterland of the Italian peninsula!

The hinterland of the Western Roman Empire ushered in a dark and bloody era! (To be continued.) )
