v8 Chapter 123： Siege layout (2)

"Your Majesty, our Mountain Reconnaissance Brigade has been doing the hardest training for ten years. It is for this day! You can rest assured that even if it rains heavily, the river will skyrocket and we will succeed!" Izam finally revealed his true colors. , proudly said.

"Very good, this is the Izam I know!" Daves smiled. "After the action is successful, don't forget to send someone to inform me immediately."

"Yes!"

At this time, Dafos looked around the heads of the various units and asked: "What do you think of all of you after reading the city of Rome?"

"Your Majesty, the walls of Rome are ugly, but this circle has come down, feeling that its length is not short, and the area of ​​the city is also large..." Oliver said here, Davers added: "According to the information now available It shows that the wall of Rome is about 14 miles long. It is known as the city of Qiqiu. There are seven low-rise hills in the city, so its actual urban area is larger than we feel."

"In order to conquer Helsinki, the Romans took out all their young and middle-aged citizens to go out to fight. Now there are not many Roman soldiers who can fight in this city. To defend such a long wall, they will make them less capable. The shortcomings are exposed..."

Olivers said, Matones interjected: "I have noticed all the way, the quality of the soldiers in the city is not good. Ledes, can you send a cavalry, go and test it?"

Ledes saw Davers nod and acquiesced, and immediately sent a cavalry squad. When they slanted towards the wall 50 meters, the soldiers on the head of the city had a commotion, and soon the javelin and arrows were shot. But the fast-moving cavalry squad quickly got out of the attacked area.

It is impossible for the cavalry to attack the city, not to mention that there will be no threat to the city wall. The Roman soldiers can respond calmly and do not need to be so anxious to attack and waste the javelin arrows. The experienced army leaders looked at their eyes and showed a few relaxed smiles on their faces.

"Your Majesty, the reason why you let us several legions attack the walls of Rome at the same time, instead of concentrating the forces, focusing on one or two places, is to let the Romans have to temporarily recruit them, the combat power is not strong. Soldiers spread out to make their defenses weaker, and we can break the city of Rome faster and easier!” Mattonis finished, glanced at Oliver.

Oliver snorted, and Matonis’s words were exactly what he had just said but had not finished.

"But tomorrow, when we are fully attacking the city of Rome, the Roman colonial city and the allies that have received news will definitely send out reinforcements!" Gio Gris reminded me with a slight concern: "especially in the attack on the Helsinkis of Rome." The army and the Roman army in the west that we just defeated yesterday, if they arrived when we attacked the city -"

"Yesterday, the Roman army in the west suffered heavy losses. The pursuit of the first and second cavalry regiments carried a lot of their squadrons. The soldiers of our army were ordered to chop the captives. The rough statistics are 3000. Many people, this does not include the Romans who died in the battle and who died in the rout, so they will no longer be in danger to us for a moment." Lizzar said affirmatively: "As for the Roman army in the northeast direction ——"

"Their strength is indeed huge, but according to previous information, their camp is more than 100 miles away from here, and the road is not flat. The normal march has at least three or four days of travel, and by that time we have already occupied the city of Rome!" Trotillas said loudly.

"Don't underestimate the enemy!" Daves solemnly reminded: "The Roman dictator Camillaus is not a simple character. He has participated in countless battles, has rich combat experience, and has also commanded many battles. Suffered from failure-"Speaking here, he saw Amintas licking his mouth, but soon became frowning again, apparently thinking of the last fight with Camilos, let the First Legion Suffered a lot of damage.

"Therefore, we can't judge the army of Camiros in the usual situation... two days!" Daves indulged for a moment, extended **** and said with a serious expression: "We must return the Roman army." Half of the time, for the time being, Camillas will return to the army in two days, so you only have one day to attack the city, and you must take the city of Rome tomorrow!" In the last sentence, Dafos said powerfully. .

The heads of the army heard the pressure and felt the pressure.

"The detective squad and the mountain reconnaissance squad of each legion are temporarily returned to my direct command. I will send them out and explore the movements around Rome all day. I will report to you whenever I have an abnormality. The first cavalry regiment and the second cavalry The cavalry of the Legion stayed in the camp, recharged and recharged, restored horsepower, and prepared for the attack at any time. And you-"Davers looked at Amintas, Matonis, Lizaru, Oliver in front of him. The six heads of Gio Gris and Trotilla, Shen Sheng said: "Go back quickly, command your Legionnaires, build your camp as soon as possible according to the location you just specified. This camp must not only allow soldiers to We have peace of mind to rest, but also to ensure that we have certain defensive capabilities. At the same time, carefully prepare for the siege of tomorrow, you are each responsible for attacking a section of the city wall, I have to take a good look at who will be the first to break through the defense of Rome tomorrow, Attack into the city!"

The heads of the army heard this and looked at each other with a sense of competition.

"But you should also pay attention, don't patronize the attack, let the soldiers have too much casualties, because the capture of the Roman city is only the beginning, the real war is still behind!"

The last words of Daves reminded the heads of the army, and then they rushed back to their own army. Davers led the court guards and two cavalry regiments and slowly returned.

Davers looked at the sky and asked: "Has Epiphanis already led the team?"

"According to the plan, he should have set off this morning and should be on the road now," Tolmide replied.

Davers reminded another question. He said with a slight expectation: "I hope that the Wolsey and the Helsinki can help us to get some time as planned."

At this moment, Tolmide faintly felt that the commander-in-chief of Dionynia, who had always been invincible and commanded, seemed nervous. He did not know what to say for a while, so he kept silent.

.............................................

When Milusius set off this morning, his mood was a bit heavy. Although he was not a veteran and could not attend the meeting of the Senate yesterday, the father who returned home told him about it, and there was a small dispute between the two. He admires Camillaus, who is dissatisfied with his own uncle, Maruji Neensis, taking the dictator’s expedition and directing other veterans to do little tricks behind him, but he still took over the task assigned by the Senate because He felt that it was better to let the other people go through the execution of this order than to let Camillaus's elbows be much smaller.

However, not long after the departure, he received a new order from the Senate. Although the original order that made him dissatisfied has been canceled, at the moment he is not happy at all, and his heart is full of shock: the army of Dionia Marching to the city of Rome! I heard the Dionya army landing on the coast last night. I have already attacked Rome today. !

The speed of the operation of the Dionysian army was completely out of the expectations of Milusius, and the sense of crisis forced him to speed up his progress.

After Prinnester, passing sagnia, although the road ahead is getting more and more uneven, Milusius tries not to slow down.

At this time, the front came a ride, the people riding the horse hugged the horse's neck, saw them, did not avoid, but hit the face.

The soldiers accompanying the team rushed to intercept, and the frightened horse threw a man. Because the man was wearing Roman costume and a javelin was inserted in his back, he was very wounded and Milusius had to look forward.

The man woke up in the shackles and saw Milusius, and immediately said: I am... I am the slave of the Pottyus family, the slave... In front... There is an ambush in front of the Helsinki... ...we were attacked...be careful..."

Without thinking about it, Milusius knew why Potistus's slaves would appear here. He hurriedly asked, "How many enemies are there?"

"At least seven or eighty people..."

"There are so many people?!" Milusius was taken aback. He looked back at the ten soldiers who followed him. He was a little embarrassed: Is it hard to move forward? Or turn around and go to the rescue army?

Just thinking for a while, he made a decision: immediately turned to Signia!

It is not that he is greedy and afraid of death but he believes that his mission is related to the survival of the city of Rome, can not be a slight negligence, and 希egonia is not far from this, can not delay much time.

.............................................

In fact, the various legions of the Dionia arrived outside of Rome, and they have already traveled to the area where their legion should be in accordance with the plan negotiated last night. The engineers of the various regiments had initially set up the entire camp construction plan in accordance with the plan set by Dafos last night, according to the drawings of the city of Rome, and now they need to go to the field to correct and determine the plan.

Soon, the new camp construction plan came out.

So, with the various army battalions, they carried out measurements and signs on the land outside Rome according to the camp plan: Where did the trench start to dig? How deep is it to dig? Where is the land barrier built? How high is it? The location of the camp gate? The location of the whistle building? ... Of course, the construction of the Dionysian field camp has special regulations. After many trials and amendments, there will be no major changes. The soldiers have been familiar with this after numerous military trainings. So, when the head of the army came back, the task of the camp was specifically released to the lower-level team officers, and the soldiers went to work in full swing.
