Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

"We are siege, do you know! Siege!" Tima Song shouted angrily: "Heavy infantry can't get up, can't take this city, they saved their lives, there is fart! Go quickly! Go quickly!!! "

Tima Song sent her soldiers across the moat and ran towards the light infantrymen before turning their eyes, sweeping across the ground under the city, lying full of corpses, soldiers struggling to weep, mercenaries and Crimeans...

Tima Song has seen too many such pictures. Before coming to Greater Greece, they had just under the command of Tiburon and had a siege battle against Larissa in Asia Minor for several months. The difficulty of siege, he was Deeply understood.It's just that he has no other way but to attack. Time is the key to his success.

"Be careful, leader!" The shouts of his men made him subconsciously quickly hide his head under the round shield, only to hear the sound of "clang", the back of his hand shook, an arrow hit the shield and bounced up again.

As soon as he exhaled, he heard the exclamation of "Ahhhhhhhhhhh!", followed by a loud bang.

Needless to say, he also knew that the siege ladder must be pushed down by the enemy, and the irritability in his heart began to breed.

…………………

"General, the enemy's light infantry is forcing it up!" The screaming of the civic soldiers panicked Euripps.

The light infantry originally in front of the moat had moved quickly under the wall. Compared with the poorly trained archery of the Krimmisa civic soldiers, the bow and arrow of these enemies were accurate and ruthless. Most of them are caused by them.

"Don't worry about the enemies on the long ladder, focus on shooting those light infantry!" He ran along the city dish walkway and ordered the archer.

"The enemy is coming up again!" The soldiers shouted in panic and stopped him. Not far away, a mercenary had stood on the battlement. He faced the spear with a thorn, and he shielded his upper body with a shield, struggling to move forward Jumping, the spear not only failed to stab him, but instead was pressed under him, he did not get up immediately, but quickly slashed with his right hand general knife in a burst, and several nearby civilian soldiers were cut by his unprotected thighs. , Screaming and falling down.He stood up, but instead of taking advantage of the chaos, he retreated to the entrance of the long ladder, squatted against the battlements, and shielded his body with a round shield.

The soldiers' spears did not hurt him much. Instead, they feared that his saber would protrude from under the shield and slash his feet, so he did not dare to approach him. During this delay, another mercenary stepped on the battlement.

"Forcing it up! Stop them!" Euripps led the reserve team, and the dense spear thrusts pushed the enemy to the corner.

"Pick up their shields!" As soon as the voice of Euripps fell, the soldier next to him uttered a scream, and a javelin pierced his ribs.

The light infantry under the city tried their best to give support to the comrades in the siege. Bows and arrows and javelins focused on this section of the city. The heavy infantry also accelerated the speed of the city.

Euripps urgently mobilized all the remaining troops to block here. After a fierce fighting and fighting between the two sides, the mercenaries were driven off, but this section of the aisle was full of injured Crimea citizens Bing.

Faced with such a group of enemies that are obviously experienced in battle and bloodthirsty, each intrusion will cause considerable damage to the garrison soldiers. Euripps feels a little powerless and his manpower starts to tighten: "Quick Go and inform General Antaoris that the enemy has invested all their strength in the North City! It’s almost impossible to support him here, let him send troops to reinforce!"

Antaoris has no soldiers to send.However, since the enemy has been attacking the north and west, the troops responsible for the east defense have been idle at this moment of crisis.

Antaoris immediately made a decision: to send a general to inform General Pulades to immediately lead the troops stationed in the East City to reinforce Euripps.

"Head Tima Song! Head Tima Song!..." The herald soldiers hurried towards Tima Song while avoiding arrows: "The enemy on the east wall has left!"

"I've seen it already!" Tima Song's tone showed a little excitement: "Go tell Toricos and let him act immediately!"

"Yes!"

Seeing the herald soldiers leaving, Tima Song immediately shouted his arms and shouted, "Brothers, work harder! Attack with me! The enemy can't stand it anymore!" At the front of the long ladder, he grabbed the wooden ladder with his right hand. The soldiers on the ladder supported his hips and slammed them up. He moved forward several times, and the soldiers in front had entered the city wall. He used both hands and feet, and soon At the top of the long ladder, quickly withdrew the saber, stepped on the battlement, shielded the chest, ignored the speared spear sword, struggling forward, striking away the enemy by the impulse, the saber in his hand also slashed forward .

"Back to back! Back to back!" he cried as he cut.

The mercenaries who had shrunk in the corner immediately approached.

Inspired by Timmas Song’s pioneers, the mercenaries launched another offensive, and the northern wall was penetrated by them. If it was not Pleiades who led his troops to come to support, the garrison troops of Euripps could not support it.

The two sides fought fiercely in the aisle, watching the massive influx of reinforcements, so that Crimisa's popularity rose, ready to drive the mercenaries down again.

At this time, huge commotion came from the east.

"The enemy is coming! The enemy is coming!..." The civic soldiers shouted in panic.

Euripps hurriedly turned his head to look around, and saw that many of the enemy's light shield soldiers rushed down the aisle of the east wall with a leather shield and a counter-blade knife.

Eurips had no time to think about how these people were climbing the wall. He hurriedly asked Pleades to lead the reinforcements back to intercept, but the two sides were fighting staggered in the aisle, making it difficult to mobilize troops.

However, these Thracian light shield soldiers of the mercenaries attacked very quickly. They broke into the crowd, and the long-handed counter-blade in a small space exerted the terrifying killing power. They were caught by the sharp blade. The bones are cut; the neck is cut and the blood vessels are cut...The Crimean civic soldiers instantly fell down, scaring them to retreat, but the light shield soldiers chased like the bone maggots, nearby The mercenaries also took advantage of the chaos to climb into the city...

The easternmost end of the entire defense of the northern walls of Crimea has been breached, and experienced mercenary soldiers drove westward to the defeated Crimean civic soldiers...

In the crowded aisle, the panicked Crimea people pushed each other to escape, and some people fell directly from the inside of the city wall...

Seeing this tragic phenomenon, Euripps and Pulades were also panicked. They were afraid of this misfortune. They retreated from the tower, causing the mercenaries to easily enter the city and occupy the aisle near the gate. , Blocking countless Crimea people in the aisle...

The mercenaries mercilessly launched the killing, forcing more Crimeans to jump off the city wall...

Antaoris, who had originally organized and coordinated defense under the city, saw this tragic scene and listened to the continuous screams of the citizens.But at this critical moment, he must also hold back his grief and arrange for the evacuated civic soldiers and the people to return to the Acropolis in the south for their final defense.

The mercenaries occupied the north city, opened the gates, and the soldiers outside the city poured in...

"Boss, we are victorious! We have occupied the city!" the men shouted with joy as they helped Timmasong.

Tima Song’s thigh was stabbed and there was a knife wound in his right arm. If the enemy did not collapse on his own, he would probably die under the spear spear. At this moment, he was also very excited: "It should be said that we also own a city!" He said with satisfaction.The mercenary was able to capture the city wall, thanks to the success of his strategy: in the Dionysian Union, under his careful inquiry, his former comrades told him in detail the details of the process of capturing Amendolara, let him know After obtaining this special siege equipment and getting a sketch of it, he successively sent people to the blacksmith shop in Heraklia to make dozens of them.During the siege, he deliberately attacked the west and north sides. Once the Crimea people who defended the east were forced to come to support (the south is the Umbria), let Toricos lead dozens of trained light shields. Soldiers slipped under the east wall with rope hooks. Even if they were found, they did not carry the siege ladder and did not attract the attention of the enemy.In this way, the light shield soldiers climbed the city wall with a rope hook, and gave the Crimea a fatal blow.

After Timathon went to the city, it happened to merge with Kriano, who had captured Simon, and directed the mercenaries to continue to pursue the defeated soldiers.

At the beginning everything went well, but gradually the mercenaries were out of control, they began to break into houses, snatch property, and even capture women...

Tima Song was furious. It was not that he was against looting, but that the battle was not over now. It is reported that the remaining forces of Crimea were hiding in the Acropolis, and they must take it with one go and occupy the whole city to celebrate the victory.

But the mercenaries who were in a state of excitement acted instinctively and refused to obey his orders.Timmasong felt Davers's feelings at the moment. He knew that to no avail, he still swears and vents his resentment.

"Boss, they are all in the Acropolis anyway, and they can't run away. We blocked the Acropolis and waited until the soldiers were noisy, and then reunited them to take the Acropolis." Toricos exhorted. .

"I'm not worried about the Crimea people, I'm worried about Crotone!" Tima Song said anxiously.

"Even when we attacked the city, Crimisa asked Crotone for reinforcements, but the messenger arrived in Crotone, and after discussion at the council, made a decision, mobilized the army, came here... so many processes, etc. They came here, and it would be the evening as soon as possible. I don’t believe that the Crotonenes had the courage of Davos, and they dared to attack the city at night! And we won the entire city of Crimea and sent the messenger. I’m afraid I’ve arrived at the Dionysian Senate. By the time Croton’s attack is off, they should have made a decision.” Kriano gave him a serious analysis.
