Molested Zulong at the beginning

Bai Su shook his head, raised his binoculars to look at the approaching coastline, and said, "It's time to prepare for landing."

Zhang Han was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help asking: "My lord, have we arrived yet?"

Bai Su put down the binoculars in his hand, picked up a drawn map, pondered for a while, and said, "It looks like we should be here, it's time to prepare for the battle."

A flash of excitement flashed in Zhang Han's apricot eyes, her slender hands clenched the sword at her waist, and murmured: "Is it finally here?"

She didn't know how long she had waited for this day.

Whether he can become the second governor of the Central Plains after Bai Su depends on whether he can make military exploits in the future.

......

......

Latin Luo City.

Above the city, countless soldiers patrolled in an orderly manner.

These soldiers were dressed in fine armor, held javelins in their hands, and had two short swords hanging from their waists.

These are the elite soldiers and horses that Nero recruited from all over the country and are responsible for stationing here.

The city of Latino, this is the gateway to the city of Rome, and it is only a few hundred miles away from the capital where Nero is located.

Once there is a loss here, Rome will fall into a huge crisis.

Nero was also very helpless about this. In the past, Rome relied on its huge size and the advantages of the Mediterranean Sea to dispatch legions from various places.

But now the Roman navy is almost completely wiped out, and they are a sea power country. Once they lose the advantage of the navy, the land will be broken into pieces, and there is almost no strategy to escape.

Nero has no natural dangers to defend, so she can only mobilize her troops to Italy to fight a decisive battle with the upcoming Xia army.

It can be said that the first battle is the decisive battle.

If Bai Su captures this place, he will be able to gain a firm foothold. Based on this, he will fight all the way to the city of Rome, and there is a risk that the capital will fall.

On the contrary, if they can hold on, Bai Su's progress will be interrupted, and all the advantages gained in the previous naval battle will be lost.

As troops from all over Rome were successively dispatched, Bai Su fell into siege from all directions, and finally had no escape, and could only end up being defeated and captured.

Of course, this is destined to be just Nero's wishful thinking.

The sky is approaching dusk, which is the time when people let down their guard all day and are most tired and sleepy.

suddenly.

"Crench."

The branch was trampled off with a soft sound.

Bai Su stood in a dense forest with a telescope, looking at the city in the distance.

The reason why he chose to launch the attack at dusk was not only because the defenders who had been guarding for a day at this time were very tired, but also because the soldiers of Daxia had a good rest.

After all, he traveled thousands of miles from the Central Plains all the way to the Mediterranean Sea, and stayed on the ship for whole months.

Although the huge size of Zheng He's treasure ship can effectively reduce the turbulence of wind and waves, but after all, it can't compare with that on land, and the soldiers have always been very tired.

They need to set up camp and rest on land for a while to allow their bodies to adjust.

As for the delay in the attack giving the Roman defenders an opportunity to consolidate the city's defenses, Bai Su didn't worry about it at all.

After all, in order to capture Rome in one fell swoop, he brought enough firearms, thunderbolts, and specially improved Huihui cannons, which were specially used to destroy the strong city wall fortresses.

Bai Su looked at the Roman soldiers on the city wall who were not aware of it at all, and who were tired and yelling at the hatchet, and told Zhang Han beside him, "Let's start attacking."

Zhang Han nodded lightly, waved to the soldiers behind him and said, "Attack!!!"

next moment.

On the silent battlefield, there was a sudden uproar, and the ground seemed to tremble slightly.

The Roman defenders on the city looked stunned for a moment. Looking at the enemy troops slowly pouring out of the dense forest in the distance, their expressions suddenly changed: "Enemy attack, enemy attack..."

The Roman commander who guarded the city quickly walked up the tower and asked, "What happened?"

The defenders on the side panicked and said, "General... General, Siris' army is coming."

what?

The head coach of Rome was taken aback for a moment, he never expected that Bai Su would dare to take the initiative to attack.

You know, according to reports from spies, the Baisu Fleet has less than [-] to [-] troops in total, and it is still a terrifying force to occupy the advantage of warships at sea.

But once he landed on land, this mere force was simply not enough to put his teeth between them.

After all, he has an army of 18 troops in his city. According to the battlefield experience of encircling them in ten rules and attacking them in five rules, isn't Bai Su hitting a stone with an egg?

But when he looked up into the distance, saw the black bird flag fluttering in the distance, and the mighty army rushing forward, he realized that the other party was serious.

"General... general, what should we do?"

The soldiers on the side were a little nervous.

The Roman coach sneered, and said, "Since they want to take the initiative to come over to die, then we don't need to be polite. Prepare javelins, bows and arrows, and wait for the enemy to approach the distance of [-] steps, and shoot together."

"After turning the enemy's shooter on his back, he opened the city gate, and the infantry rushed to kill the enemy with me, and captured the enemy's commander."

The Roman defenders on the side bowed their hands and saluted, and went to prepare.

The Roman coach supported the city wall with both hands, looked at the figure in white clothes in the distance, and couldn't help laughing: "I think this person is Serris' coach, Bai Su, His Majesty the Emperor happens to be interested in this person, If this person is taken back, His Majesty the Emperor will definitely be happy."

For a moment, the battlefield seemed to be quiet.

The distance between the two sides is slowly approaching, five hundred steps, four hundred steps, three hundred steps.

Just as the Roman defenders gripped their javelins one by one, drew their longbows, and waited for the Xia army to walk into their range step by step.

The army led by Bai Su stopped suddenly, which made the defenders in the city confused for a while, wondering what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd.

But soon, they saw Xia Jun's team slowly separate, and the soldiers behind moved out strange siege equipment one by one.

Just when the Roman coach laughed at Bai Su's stupidity, such a cumbersome siege machine could not be pushed down in front of the city gate, and would be pierced into a hedgehog under their javelins, and died in vain.

next moment.

A huge black shadow flashed past quickly, presenting a graceful throwing coin, which crashed on the top of the city.

boom! ! !

With a loud bang.

A few Roman soldiers who didn't react were directly hit, their arms and legs were broken instantly, and their flesh and blood flew everywhere.

The solid city bricks on the top of the city were smashed to pieces, and a huge gap appeared.

Listening to the wailing and screaming of the soldiers, the Roman coach looked at the huge gap with a dull expression on his face.

Who can tell him what happened just now?

A distance of 400 meters, the defenders hiding behind the protection of the city wall were instantly smashed to death. The hard wall bricks are like paper?

However, Daxia's army didn't give him time to think at all.

Black shadows shot out one after another, and landed on the city wall with a bang. The hard city wall was smashed and cracked everywhere, debris flew across, and even the hard city gate was smashed into a big hole.

Following the direction of the track, the Roman coach saw the strange siege machines, gritted his teeth and said, "It's that thing, they plan to use it to destroy our city walls."

The Roman soldier on the side said anxiously, "General... General, what should we do?"

If the morale of the defending army is defeated, let alone defending the city, I am afraid that they will lose the courage to fight.

The Rome coach gritted his teeth and said: "Although that thing is very powerful, it is too cumbersome and slow to move. It is only four or five hundred away at the moment."

"In this way, the infantry is quickly recruited, carrying the shield and going out of the city to fight, resisting the enemy's arrows all the way, as long as the siege equipment can be destroyed, the enemy will no longer have the means to attack the city."

Hearing the commander's order, the lieutenant on the side hastily mobilized troops.

After a moment.

The gate of the city slowly opened, and soldiers holding huge red shields stood neatly in a row, hid behind the shields, held daggers in their hands, and charged towards Bai Su's position.

Thousands of people stood together majestically, looking around, like a tortoise shell with no way to eat.

Zhang Han's eyes lit up when he saw this, and he said pleasantly, "My lord, they really fell for the trick, they opened the gate of the city and came out, wanting to fight us head-on."

The corner of Bai Su's mouth curled up, and he said with a smile: "Do you think it's safe to hide behind the shield? Bring over the things we prepared for them."

"Yes."

Zhang Han nodded slightly, and waved to the soldiers behind him.

Xia Jun's soldiers picked up black jars one by one and threw them in the direction of the Roman infantry.

The Roman soldier looked at the pot with burning sparks under his feet, and was stunned for a while, wondering what it was.

boom! ! !

As if a shocking thunder rang out of thin air, seven or eight Roman soldiers were directly blown out, and the splashed patches also scratched many Roman soldiers around them.

The originally neat team suddenly became chaotic, and the sound of explosions and wailing was endless.

When the head coach of Rome saw this scene, his eyes widened suddenly, and he shouted hoarsely: "No... don't take the shield anymore, such a heavy thing, walking so slowly, is a complete target."

"Quickly throw away the bulky shield, hold the short sword tightly in your hand, and the whole army rushes to kill the enemy. The distance is less than 100 meters. Grit your teeth and support it, and you will be there."

These Roman soldiers are worthy of being elites who have experienced many battles. Even after experiencing such a frightening scene, after hearing the commander's order, they still threw away their shields without thinking, held their daggers high, and charged in the direction of Xia's army.

Without the restraint of the shield, the speed was significantly faster, and he could barely avoid the explosion of the strange black jar.

But what puzzled the Roman coach was that not only did Xia Jun not have the slightest panic on his face, but each one showed expressions of successful plans.

Next, an unforgettable scene appeared.

In Xia Jun's team, the bamboo flute suddenly sounded, and the rhythmic tune of the war drum, followed by Xia Jun soldiers holding fire sticks, standing neatly in a row, holding the fire sticks and aiming at the oncoming people. Roman soldiers.

With the sound of gunshots, the Roman soldiers seemed to press the pause button one by one, their bodies froze suddenly, and they fell down with incredible expressions on their faces.

For a moment, the backs of the Roman soldiers were splashed with blood, as if they were cutting wheat, they fell one by one.

Almost every breath, Roman soldiers fell one after another. At present, more than 3000 people have fallen, and the casualties of the Xia army are unbelievably zero.

Zero casualties compared to thousands of casualties, this ratio of battle damage is simply desperate, and I wonder if this is the anger of Zeus, the king of the gods.

It is obviously less than a few tens of meters away, but this distance that seems to be within reach, is now like a distance between heaven and earth, as if it has become so far, so far away.

Chapter 470 The Seventh Way of Stealing the Country

After a whole day of fierce fighting, the entire city was almost reduced to ruins.

Looking around, the eyes are scorched black, gaps have appeared in the formerly solid city walls, the city gates are broken, and the air is filled with the pungent smell of gunpowder.

The flag of the eagle fluttering above the city had already fallen to the ground, trampled into mud by footprints.

There is no suspense in this war.

The death of the commander, the fall of the city, and the terrifying weapon that seemed to be controlled by a mortal, had completely made the soldiers of Rome terrified.

When these Roman soldiers heard the sound of the flute and the sound of the drums, they all showed panic, as if they saw some monsters.

Although they still had a considerable advantage in terms of military strength, they almost prevented any effective resistance, and soon began to flee on a large scale.

This strategically important city was easily captured by the Xia army.

Above the city tower, the Great Xia Xuanniao flag fluttered.

Bai Su stood on the tower, looking into the distance, thinking about something.

Zhang Han walked over quickly, and his fair and pretty face was full of excitement: "My lord, we have won a complete victory in this battle, only less than 32 people were injured, the enemy army has been completely defeated, I have been fighting all my life , I have never won so thoroughly..."

Bai Su couldn't help smiling when he saw her excited flushed face, but he wasn't surprised by the result.

After all, in history, the British Empire once swept the entire India with less than [-] to [-] soldiers and horses.

Today Rome is still in the era of cold weapons. Facing weapons such as muskets and gunpowder, naturally there is no resistance at all.

After a long time, Zhang Han couldn't help asking: "My lord, what should we do next?"

Bai Su stroked his chin and said in thought: "Order the soldiers of the three armies to strictly abide by military discipline, not to offend the people in the city at will, and not to plunder at will. Violators will be severely punished."

Zhang Han was stunned for a moment, and asked with some doubts: "My lord, why did you order like this?"

After all, in the past, after the army captured the city, in order to reward the soldiers, they were often encouraged to plunder everywhere as rewards.

This is especially true when crusades against foreign countries. Few commanders take the initiative to restrain their troops.
