Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Thinking of Davos's possible strategic plan in the future, Zantiparis breathed a sigh of relief: "Tormead, it seems that I will not be able to leave the battlefield for the rest of my life!"

"At least you don't have to worry about not having the chance to become the commander of the legion, or even the elders of the veteran hospital!"

…………………………

Grumentum is a mountain city. Unlike the hill occupied by Amendolara, which is less than 200 meters high, the hill occupied by Grumentum is about 300 meters high.

The wooden wall of the city of Grumentum was first built at the foot of the mountain, and then expanded during the period of the chieftain of Akpiru. The surrounding small tribes were annexed and incorporated into Grummentum, but because of the accommodation The city area had to be expanded further, which doubled the area of ​​Grumentum City and divided the whole city area into three parts: most of the outer city was newly moved in, The inhabited tribes lived; the inner city was inhabited by tribes that originally belonged to Grummentum; and the core area was a mountain top, which was also built with wooden walls and was inhabited by the tribe of the chieftain.In the heyday of Grummentum, there were nearly 30,000 residents in the city.

However, after the mercenaries of Davers defeated the Lukaria tribe allied forces and Akpiru was seriously injured, Lusaou lacked prestige and was unable to unify the various tribes of Rumentum. War broke out, and some tribes in Grummentum's territory began to flee.After Cincinnati seized Grummentum, in order to control the whole city, he used the plan to kill the leader and the people who did not obey him, which led everyone to self-defense, centrifuge from Germany, and many people inside the city quietly fled. The city is so large that the population in the city is greatly reduced, and the number of people is not enough to defend this big city.So after Pottentia declared war, Cincinnati moved all the residents into the inner city and burned the outer walls and houses.

After the Potentians became the new owner of Grummentum, they did not rebuild the outer city.The inner city at this time has three gates in the east, west and south, and the north is a cliff.

Borat’s initial deployment was: 500 Potentia warriors were stationed in each of the three gate districts, followed by the scattered settlement of the original Grumentum’s tribe, and further up the Lusau’s tribe, not only as The reserve forces at the time of the war, while also monitoring the movements of these tribes, once there is a riot, and the upper and lower attack, you can easily smooth the war, and the core area on the top of the hill is led by Bolert, 500 elite warriors from Bottentia High command.

It was just that this set of deployments was destroyed shortly afterwards, and the destroyer was Lusau.After his strength increased, he no longer wanted to obey Pollet's orders, especially since he was defeated by Cincinnati, and was almost caught in the city to be captured alive, so he strongly demanded the guarding of a city gate area.

Pollet was finally forced to help, so that Lusau was stationed at the south gate.And because Lusau's oppression of the people in the city forced all tribes in the city to reluctant to live in Nancheng District, they were more concentrated in Dongchengmen District.

For the current situation in the city, Pollet was actually very clear and deeply disturbed, but his prestige and strength were not enough to deter the increasingly arrogant Lusau. At the same time, because of Lusau’s chaos, it also caused Potentia People's dissatisfaction, they have a lot of learning, so that he gradually unable to control his group of warriors from various tribes of Potentia.The anger of the residents of Grummentum increased day by day, and Pollet felt like he was sitting in the crater. This sense of crisis led him to finally decide to send someone back to Potentia and accuse Big Brother Puamot of his current Dilemma, and requested the transfer of Lusau, while increasing the number of additional Potentia fighters to stabilize the situation in Grummentum.

After finally making this decision, Pollet seemed to relax a lot. During the past two days, he actively toured the city, and also reprimanded his leader for the carelessness of the Dongcheng gate.

On this day, Pollet returned to the top of the mountain where his residence was near dusk. He felt hungry, so he asked the guards to roast a leg of lamb and served a jug of wine, ready to eat and drink.

At this moment, he vaguely heard the shouting from the mountain.You know, this mountain city is hundreds of meters high, and you can hear the sound of the mountain at the top of the mountain, and you can see that the movement is not small.

Pollet's expression was abrupt, and he ran out of the house immediately, and was greeted by the sentry who hurriedly came to report: "Boss, there are enemies in the siege! The Grumentum in the city attacked our soldiers!"

"What?!" The sentinel's words were like a thunderbolt on the sunny day that surprised Bollet.

………………………

At dusk it was time for the warriors to eat. The Potentias ate cheese and beef and mutton while venting their dissatisfaction with the leader Pollet. These two days Pollet could toss them to pieces.

When they were full and satisfied, the horn sounded suddenly. When the leaders and team officers expelled the soldiers from the camp anxiously, many people did not believe that the war was so sudden without warning. Is here.

They hurriedly picked up their weapons and reorganized the queue.

The enemy's attack was very rapid. When he rushed out of the jungle and was exposed to the sight of the sentry in the city, he approached the east, west and south of Grummentum as quickly as possible...

The sentry on the wooden wall of the east gate watched as the enemies in the mountains ahead were restrained by the rolling hills, dense wooden fences and Luzhai, and they were forced to converge into several narrow mountain roads leading to each city gate. .

At this time, if a large number of arrows and javelins are thrown, those densely packed enemies will be severely injured.However, the few dozen or so arrows that fell in the enemy's formation could not afford the big waves.

"Hurry! Hurry! Hurry up! The enemy is coming up!!" The soldiers on the city head anxiously turned back to urge the teammates who were still rubbing under the city, and suddenly his voice came to an abrupt stop: Above the Camp of Potentia, A team of several hundred people held a spear and stood in a column, rushing down.

It's the reinforcements sent by the Grummen!The warrior at the head of the city felt a little relieved, but what happened next made him stunned.

The team slammed into the bottom of the city and was hurriedly preparing to go back to the Potentia rear team, shouting in the mouth: "Go to hell! Damn Potentia pig!..." After being overwhelmed by the Potentia warrior...

The screams, the shouts and the screams shook up, and the city was in chaos...

While taking advantage of the chaos in the city, the enemies outside the city have reached the bottom of the city. They threw the sacks full of dirt into the trenches, quickly filled a road, and then flooded under the wooden wall to catch a Long ladder...

The Botentia warriors resisted stubbornly, but most of the warriors were fighting fiercely with the tribal warriors of Grumentum in the city. There were not many warriors on the city walls, but the enemies, regardless of life and death, continued to attack upwards, and soon the enemies killed the city. ...

……………………

Pollet saw the enemy on the east wall of the mountain below the hilltop from the observation platform, and the defense line was in danger. He was very anxious: "You hold my wolf teeth and immediately go to tell Lusau that the East Gate is in crisis and let him send some The soldiers will help defend the east gate, otherwise the enemy will be killed and everyone will be unable to run!"

"Yes, the leader!" The guard took the order nervously.

Watching the guards rush down the mountain, Pollet was not at ease, and sent someone to order 500 Potentia soldiers stationed on the mountainside to rush to the east gate.

After giving the order, Pollet temporarily sighed and had time to calm down and think: Where did the enemy come from?

Are they Pecosis?Can they just send so many fighters just after a big defeat?

Are they Dionysians?As soon as he thought of the powerful Greek city-state alliance to the south, Pollet felt his breath tighten.Even if Potentia is not adjacent to Dionyssia, he still feels the pressure from the south from time to time this year, not only because of its strength, but more importantly, the Lucania people do not exclude this Greek. People-oriented alliance, this is the most terrible!This terrible situation prevented the Lukalia from working together to resist this outsider!This is why the prudent Puamot finally made up his mind to win Grummentum. Only by strengthening himself can we withstand the amazing speed of expansion.Therefore, when Puamot left, he repeatedly told Pollet to focus on the movement of the Dionysian Union.Of course, Pollet attaches great importance. He sent 200 warriors of this tribe to guard the pass, and also sent a spy to go south, wanting to monitor the movement of Nyutum, just because Nyutum was guarded and set up checkpoints in many places. The northbound passage was blocked, and the spies returned without success.

Now, there is no abnormal news from the camps that guard the pass, and the enemies of the siege are all in the costume of the Lucanias, making Polot's suspicion only stay for a while on Dionysia, and immediately move to The last suspicious object-Galaguço, as the most traditional tribe in the Lucania region, they like to live in high mountains rather than flat land, far from the center of the Lucania region, among the mountains in the northeast , Built the city of Galaguço, and has rarely participated in the disputes between other tribal unions for decades, and refused to join other tribal alliances, and drifted away from several Lucanian tribes.When Akpiru ruled southern Lucania, he had no idea to fight it. Could the conservative Galaguos change their traditions this time?

...

At this time, the east wall was occupied by Dionysian soldiers. They did not rest and continued to advance into the city.

At the forefront were the 500 mercenaries led by Zantiparis, and another 500 mercenaries led by Tormid, guarding Niutum.

Immediately behind the mercenaries were 1,500 Lucania soldiers led by Litoru, one of the captains of the Third Army, and 2,000 soldiers led by Xima were attacking the west gate. 2,500 soldiers personally led by Bagul.Bagul is almost evenly distributed, and the reason for this is also a last resort. The city of Grummentum is built on a mountain. The houses are crowded and the mountain roads are narrow. Too much force is concentrated in one place. Not only can it not exert its power, but instead It is easy to cause congestion and affect the attack.
