Leo Tizides said that while looking at the front of the city, the enemy in the city was closely arranged, and there was no obvious gap. He could not see the distribution of his rear forces, but he still seemed confident: "Since the Syracuse's defensive ability is weakening, you will personally tell the captain of the Seventh Corps that he should not take into account the casualties, continue to increase the intensity of the attack, and impose greater on the Syracuse defenders. pressure!"
"Oh... yes!" Tagruh had to go and take it.
Leo Tiddides turned his eyes to the northeast. Although he could not see the fortress of the Yuri Ruth, he was expecting Diocassis to lead the army to defeat the enemy's attack. It was when he sent the 3,000 soldiers as prepared soldiers to the fortress of Iriaruth.
He is meditating, and a detective rides from the south: "Reporting commanders, about 40 ships in Syracuse are coming out of the port and coming to our camp!"
Leo Tizides listened: Syracuse, is this going to raid my camp from the sea? !
He then thought: Could it be that the Syracuse's defensive power was weakened because they pulled the soldiers out and raided my rear when I was attacking the city? !
Since the Camp of Dionia is only four miles away from the city of Syracuse, there are only 200 soldiers stationed in the camp, and there is a lot of food stored in the camp. Of course, there is no loss.
However, Leo Tizides is not nervous. He even hopes that the Syracuse people will come to the camp, so that he can more annihilate the opponent's living strength, so he sends a **** to inform the soldiers not far away. Sharp 3,000 soldiers let them go back to the camp, but the march is slow.
Just as he gave the order, another small group of cavalry galloped from the south. The guard captain next to Leo Tizides led the guards to greet him. Soon he returned with a few people, the first one. When people saw Leo Tizides, they immediately shouted: "Commander, I am the master of Sheriffinnis, there is very important information to report to you!"
Although this person made Leo Tiddiz feel unfamiliar, but he heard the name Shenovens, he couldn't help but think: Shepherd Fennis, as the head of the Dionysian intelligence department in Sicily, whether it was a few years ago In the war against Carthage, he also gave great help to Leo Tizides.
Therefore, Leo Tizides suddenly had a great expectation, but he did not show it in color, but also kept a little cautious, said faintly: "I have not seen you, how do you prove?"
The man quietly pulled out a thumb-sized thing from his arms and handed it to the captain's hand, then whispered something: "Bal. Harmon."
Previously, when Leo Tiddides led the army to the west of Sicily, Serophonis could not always follow him and provide intelligence, so he told Leo Tiddides: In the western Sicily, as long as someone is holding a sleeping **** North's iron statue, and can tell the password at the time, then he is the intelligence department, to believe the news he provided.
Leo Tiddides had met several times in the West, and the information they provided helped him to benefit a lot. This time he went to Syracuse, and Syracinnis also blamed him and told him. The name of the head of the intelligence department in Syracuse.
According to Sheriffinus, the flag of the Legionnaire is like a three-headed dog. The sign of the intelligence department is the sleeping **** Shunos, because the sleeping **** can make people fall asleep without any notice, and then do whatever they want, in line with the intelligence department. style.
He looked at the iron statue of the sleeping **** Shunos and found that his base also has a set of "Davers numbers", which is said to represent the identity of the owner and the area he is responsible for, and the other party also said the password. .
Leo Tizides returned the statue to the other party and asked: "Your name?"
"Artemis, responsible for Syracuse."
All right! Leo Tiddides looked at him, and his appearance was basically the same as that described by Sherfinnis. Then he asked: "What is the important information?"
"Syracuse General Hitaks has decided to lead the people in the port area to join the kingdom. He now leads more than 2,000 soldiers who follow him to control the former military port and prepare to fight with the army of Syracuse. For this reason he sent All the warships, ready to dock at the beach not far from our camp, pick up our soldiers into the military port of Syracuse, reinforce them, and then attack the city of Syracuse together..." Artemis excited one The tone will finish the story.
The heart of Leo Zidids was shocked: the Syracuse guilty, some of the Syracuse descended, the military port opened to the Dionysian army, and the soldiers could take their warships into the city of Syracuse... These words made the consistently calm Leo Tizides surprised and could not believe it: the good opportunity to attack Syracuse was so easy to put in front of him? !
When his mood fluctuated, he listened to Artemis and said: "This is the son of General Hiktas, Zamoratis, who played an important role in persuading Hitaks to join the kingdom!"
Zamoratis stepped forward and looked nervously at the front of the Dionya commander wearing a black breastplate and a purple-red crown helmet.
The Syracuse people hated that Dionya took away their glory, but also urged them to pay more attention to this powerful neighbor, and the army of Dionya’s victorious battle attracted the attention of young people. In the past few years, the youngest people in Syracuse who talked about the most of the Dionysian generals were Leo Tizides: he conquered the troubled Sikels and defeated the Kass with less victory. The Taiji army even led the army to the west and destroyed in the territory controlled by the Carthage. In recent months, in the Syracuse talks, the rumored indifferent Dionya The general's limelight has outweighed the King of Dionia, who had completely defeated Dionysius and caused him to perish.
Samoratis faced the sharp eyes of Leo Tiddides, both nervous and eager to say: "Respected... General Prosous, Syracuse's army is very fast... soon Will rush to the military port, our people are not well equipped, most of them are light infantry, it is difficult to resist their offense, so please also ... send reinforcements as soon as possible!"
"Well, I will send reinforcements here." Leo Tizides immediately said the interface.
Artemis was a little embarrassed. He didn't expect Leo Tizides to agree so quietly without thinking. It seemed to be inconsistent with the cautious and thoughtful image in the rumors.
Zamoratis expressed his gratitude for his gratitude.
In fact, Leo Tizides had nothing to hesitate. Carthage’s warships docked to the shore. After the Danonian soldiers got on the boat, they controlled the entire ship. If it was a conspiracy. Thousands of sailors and the entire Syracuse Navy are used as bait, and the risks are too great. In the case that Syracuse is now facing difficulties, Leo Tizides does not think of Syracuse. Zha people have this courage and timidity, and it is even harder to convince their deliberations to implement this plan.
Leo Tiddides decided to let the 3,000 pre-sold soldiers take the Syracuse ship and land at the military port. At the same time, he also sent a notice to the eighth army that was resting to rush to the beach as the second wave. The military port's troops, compared with the far-off Uriyarus fortress, the port is a better springboard for attacking the city of Syracuse. Since he made up his mind, he simply sent all the surplus troops to the past. .
..........................................
After surviving a lot of casualties, the Syracuse army that attacked the fortress of Iriarus finally used the coffin to open the plank that blocked the hole. The soldiers roared excitedly and swarmed into the hole. Kill all the enemies that have invaded the city.
However, when I just rushed into the fort, the soldiers who were at the forefront suddenly stopped, because there was a dirt trench about three meters wide and two meters deep in front of them, which extended to the stones on both sides. The wall, and opposite the ditch, is a dense spear array of Dionian soldiers. The Syracuse soldiers in front of them stopped, and the soldiers in the rear continued to flow in, and suddenly they will The soldiers in front of them pushed into the ditch. Although there was no thorns in the ditch because of the rush of time, when the Syracuse soldiers who fell in the ditch struggled and tried to climb, they again A group of new soldiers fell on them, and then the next group of soldiers were pushed involuntarily, stepping on the fallen teammates, and finally crossed the ditch, greeted them with countless cold guns...
The Dionysian soldiers on the stone wall kept throwing javelins, stones, and even cuppings down.
The screams and screams filled the little fortress, and it was not long before the rushing into the fortress. The Syracuse soldiers paid heavy casualties and they quickly collapsed.
After the army led by Diocasis repelled the enemies on both sides of the wall walkway, he defeated the main Syracuse attack from the south. According to the previous plan, he should continue to station the fortress and wait for the arrival of the reinforcements. Not alone chasing to prevent encirclement of enemies, but not long ago the squad brought new news: the reserve team of Dionia landed in the port of Syracuse, and the people of the port of Syracuse who just joined the kingdom Together, fight the Syracuse army.
At the same time, Leo Tizides issued a new order to him: When the enemy of the attacking fortress retreats, there is no need to stay in the fortress and immediately enter the city!
Therefore, Diocasis did not hesitate to issue the command of "all the army to pursue".
