v6 Chapter 199： Raid Meyaro

"A few years ago, there was smoke on the top of Mount Etna..." La Odison saw Antonios seeing God, and was prepared to talk about the interesting things that Etna volcanoes he saw with his own eyes, but he heard Seikeley An Gao shouted: "Naxos, come and tell me where is the beach to land?!"

"Okay! Ok!" La Odesian ran to the bow.

Antonios shakes his spirits. This is his first independent battle and the first landing in the sea. Whether he can defeat Syracuse, the performance of his army is very important, so he knows his shoulders. Heavy, my heart is both nervous and excited: "Brothers, quickly wear your armor, pick up the shield spear, we will land soon! Don't stop after landing, give me an immediate charge to Naxos! Capture it Our loved ones are waiting for the news of our victory! It is time for the First Army to win honors for yourself!..."

Antonios loudly encouraged the soldiers lying on the deck to rest.

"Do not worry, the head of the army. These two days the brothers are tired on the boat, have long wanted to fight and kill, how can a town with a wooden wall can block our offense!" Melishanda responded loudly.

The detachment of Melishanda was assigned to the flagship, which of course is not a coincidence, is the special arrangement of Antonios. As a close comrade of Felicius, in general he does not mind giving some care to Fijianus.

"You kid, still be careful, don't fall into the sea when you land." Antonios smiled and patted him on his shoulder.

The soldiers suddenly whistled and snorted and screamed at their young squad leader. Melishanda fell into the sea twice during the Battle of Crotone, and it has become a talk of the soldiers before and after meals. Of course, this does not affect his men’s respect for the captain, because Melishan has always been Fighting bravely, taking the lead, and sharing the hardships with the soldiers.

At this moment, Melishan dad his eyes: "Who would dare to scream, I will not let him play the next time I play rugby!"

The threat from Melishanda made the soldiers more vocal.

For the play of the soldiers, Antonios shook his head helplessly, and he once again turned his attention to the land.

At this time, the sound of the military squad echoed in the fleet, and Seckley’s flagship took the lead and turned to the bay.

In front is a curved bay. White sandy beaches, blue waters, and more than a dozen fishing boats on the calm sea are fishing on the net.

The fleet broke in like this and broke the quiet picture here.

The fishermen saw the fast-applying behemoth - the three-story paddling ship, and panicly wanted to drive the boat to avoid it. It was too late. The bronze horn of the bow was like a knife to cut the cheese and easily hit the fishing boat into two...

Until the beach was approached, the sailors stopped paddling and the ship rushed to the beach by inertia.

The soldiers immediately took the pedals and quickly descended onto the beach. Some of the anxious soldiers jumped to the bow of the ship, threw the shield spears and helmets on the beach, and jumped directly from the deck to the beach.

Soon, the empty beach was covered with heavily armed Diaonia soldiers.

"The enemy is coming! The enemy is coming!..." The fishermen who dried the fishing nets on the beach and handled the fishery fled to the city in horror.

Before boarding the ship in Lijim, Antonios had recruited the officers of the first legion to open a combat meeting. Therefore, after the soldiers of the first fleet were disembarked, they did not do a unified whole team. Under the leadership of the team leader, Guided by the guides on the various warships, marching toward Naxos City.

The current Naxos is not really a city, but a big village. This is to say that after Dionysius became the Syracuse lord six or seven years ago, he began to conquer the southeast corner of Sicily and the eastern and central parts of the military in order to accumulate strength and counterattack the Carthaginians. The only plain on the island, the Catania Plain, became the focus of his strategy, so he is the two most important city-states in the region that resist Syracuse, Katanay and Naxos. The most severe punishment was imposed after the city was broken. The entire city of Naxos was destroyed, the walls were collapsed, and the captured Naxos people were all slaves.

Another small city state, Sikuli, just south of Naxos and only 25 miles from Naxos, was rewarded for the early surrender of Syracuse, Dionysius’s Naxos’s The land was handed over to Sikuli for governance. The Sikuli people got a larger and more fertile Naxos land than their own territory, and they were naturally happy, but the tragic fate of the Naxos also frightened the Sikuri, who speculated that Dionys The intention of Shusi to destroy the wall of the city, but did not dare to directly ask the lord, so they did not restore the old city of Naxos, but moved south to the ruins two miles away, in Alcantara On the north bank of the river, a town was built. In order to avoid the discomfort caused by Dionysius, they did not build a stone wall. Instead, they made a simple wall with a wooden fence and named the new town as Mei. Yarrow (meaning "big").

The beach where the First Legion landed was part of the former Naxos port and has disappeared. The soldiers went to the coast, and after a few steps to the south, they could see a large area with wild grass and piles of rocks.

La Odesian stared at it there, and the tears flowed down: that is his former home, Naxos!

"La Odrian, don't stop! Run up! We still need you to guide the way!" Melishanda screamed in front of him.

La Odesian quickly followed. Although he is over the middle age, he still insists on exercising, practicing fighting and fighting, and expects to be able to kill his homeland one day. Therefore, he thinks that his physical strength is good. After running for a while, the Dionian soldiers started to follow. The speed at which the Dionyns marched forward.

To know that these soldiers are fully armed and marching in an emergency, such physical strength and speed can be really scary. It is no wonder that the Syracuse people can't beat them! The amazed La Odesian did not know that in the military training of the Dionyrian soldiers every five days, there was a project that was armed with an army, which was different from the "armed long-distance" in the Olympia Games. Wearing only helmets, round shields, and naked body competitions, and the armed armed forces of Dionia can be really armed, so if the Dionyns can participate in the Olympic Games, on the "armed long-distance running" project, Definitely able to be longer and shorter with the Spartans who always win the championship.

"...that...that's Meyaro..." La Odesian pointed to the vague outline of the town in the distance, panting.

"Well, you will keep up." Melishanda did not have time to wait for him, directing the soldiers to move in that direction.

Although Antonios did not say anything, the various teams naturally competed according to the Legion tradition: Who would first arrive at the enemy town? ! See who first broke into the enemy town? !

Therefore, the first legion is united as a unit. It is not like an urgent march. It is like playing a competitive game. It spreads wide and frontward, and quickly rushes to the south pole. From the first to the next, it is uneven.

Leading the team is a team of hundreds of people, they can maintain a more complete formation in the fast running.

"Damn, which team is that?" Melishanda was unwilling to look at the leader in front of him and snorted.

"Captain, it seems to be the first company of the fourth brigade." Some soldiers answered.

"It's a madman's company." Melishanda licked his mouth.

The "madman" is the nickname of Leo Tizides, because he is famous for the intensity and high requirements of the soldiers under his command. Of course, the company he brought with him often wins in the competition in the army.

"Brothers, speed up, we can't fall behind!" Melishanda shouted not to be outdone.

Where the First Legion passed, the people of Meyaro fled and fled, but the soldiers did not spear their spears, but instead drove them to Meyalo.

Although Meialo Town only saw a wooden wall, due to its proximity to the Alcantara River, a moat was excavated outside the town. Only the east and north doors were connected to the outside by a suspension bridge. The Sikuli people in the town of Meyaro have just got a merchant ship emergency: the fleet of hundreds of warships is coming from the north, and the sail pattern seems to belong to the Union of Dionia.

The Sikuri people were shocked. They just got the news that the Diaonians had defeated Syracuse in the battle. In a twinkling of an eye, the fleet of Dionia appeared on the east coast of Sicily. They didn’t think The Dionya fleet that defeated the Syracuse Navy not long ago came with goodwill, but they still have no time to discuss the countermeasures. Someone has escaped from the beach and panicked and shouted: "The enemy killed. Come! The enemy is coming!..."

The Sikuli were frightened by the rapid attack speed of the Diaonians hastily summoned some citizens to defensively defend the enemy.

At this time, more and more people fled to the town, which led to congestion in the suspension bridge and the north gate.

Shepherd Fennes claims to be a free agent who was employed by a Sikuri citizen a few months ago to help employers cultivate fields. Now at noon, he should have appeared in the riverside field outside the town. He appeared in the town at the moment and stopped a person who fled into the town: "This uncle, what happened?"

"There are...the enemies...there are enemies...killed from the sea, you pick up the weapons and go...go..." The man said with a shock.

Serophonis interrupted his words: "The enemy?! What kind of enemy?!"

The color of fear is revealed in the eyes of the people: "Black! It's all black! Like the devil out of hell!"

Xie Luofennis blinked and looked back at a group of Sikuri citizens who didn't even have time to wear their helmets and breastplates. They hurriedly picked up the shield spears and rushed to the blocked north gate.
