Roman Slave Owner

"What the hell is going on outside? Why are they still attacking."

Levi said.

He had seen the situation outside just now. It seemed that the Senate had issued an order. Why didn't Scipio and the others come to stop it? What went wrong?

"How about I lead someone to fight out from the main gate? I saw that there are only two hundred people around Guta. As long as we capture him, we will win."

Gaita said.

Li Wei shook his head, "It's too late, order the guards to get ready."

All the guards were on standby, forming a semi-circle to surround the place where the enemy hit the wall.

At this moment, a large wall collapsed, revealing a gap and the soldiers behind.

Li Wei said, "Shoot the arrow!"

Soldiers standing about 80 yards in front of the wall and holding heavy crossbows immediately began to shoot arrows. After firing the arrows, they immediately retreated to the rear, and a row of soldiers behind them stepped forward.

"what!"

"what!"

"..."

Some soldiers who were exposed were shot by arrows one after another, screaming and backing away.

The wooden stake hit the ground heavily, and it hit the foot of an unknown Roman soldier, making an earth-shattering scream.

"Raise the shield! Tortoise shell array!"

Olus said.

The Roman soldiers in the front row immediately raised their shields to the front, and those behind them raised their shields to the top. This is a very classic Roman infantry tactic, and it is also the most used Roman tactic.

"Let the arrow!"

Levi said.

80 yards is an uncomfortable distance for the opponent. Roman soldiers generally charged to a distance of 30 yards before throwing javelins.

Now they can only be beaten and cannot fight back.

On the contrary, Li Wei's armor-piercing arrows can exert great power, and can easily penetrate the shield and stick to the soldier's hand, connecting the soldier's hand and the shield together.

At this time, another wall was smashed by a wooden pile.

One wall after another was smashed by wooden piles, and there were more and more gaps.

"Do you want to use the pro-guards for a while?"

Gaita said.

Li Wei's personal guards are not only highly skilled in martial arts, but also equipped with carburized steel swords, which are not at the same level as the weapons of these Roman soldiers.

"Hopefully it won't be used."

Li Wei took a deep breath and said.

At this moment, a horn sounded from outside.

According to the Roman military order, one sound of the trumpet was to order the army to attack, and another sound was to order the army to retreat.

Aulus' army rushed directly into the manor holding their shields, and Li Wei immediately ordered the crossbowmen to retreat, revealing the Roman infantry phalanx behind them.

"Remember 1,000 dinars per head, attack!"

Levi said loudly, and the trumpet player standing beside him blew the attack trumpet.

1000 dinars per head!

Hearing this, I don't know how many people feel excited and eager to try.

After receiving Li Wei's order, the first column of infantry immediately began to charge.

Unlike ordinary Roman generals who like to put young people in the first row, Livi puts the strongest soldiers in the first row. The people he puts in the first row are all veterans who have participated in the war. Caesar also likes to do this very much. .

In this way, the soldiers' charge is often very fierce, and it is easy to defeat the enemy with one blow.

This time is the same, as veterans who have participated in the war, they are very skilled.

After rushing to 30 yards, he threw the javelin, and then howled and killed the enemy.

Their eyes were red, and the enemy in front of them looked not like an enemy, but like a silver man made of dinars.

Their eyes startled the enemy, what kind of eyes are they?

So greedy! So cruel!

The few enemies who rushed to the front were hacked and killed by them.

"I killed someone!"

A soldier shouted,

It seems to be declaring his ownership of the fallen enemy in front of him.

He couldn't help not caring about it, it was a thousand dinars.

An officer behind him rolled his eyes and recorded a beheading record for the soldier.

All beheadings were recorded by the officers of the Military Judiciary Department because they were worried that the soldiers would cut off their heads or compete with others to waste time.

And Li Wei didn't dare to let them cut off their heads. This is a Roman soldier, and it would be too troublesome to really cut off their heads.

Hearing his shout, many guards were jealous.

Some people got rich today, some even got a reward of 2000 dinars.

Some people don't get a single coin, how can they make people willing.

So they rushed to the enemy like tigers on the mountain.

Enemies come in too slowly, not enough to kill at all.

There was even a quarrel in order to grab the enemy, and everyone was jealous.

Each head is 1,000 dinars, so they can't help it.

Not only the enemy was stunned, but even Li Wei was shocked.

"Were they like this just now?"

Levi asked.

Geta knew that Li Wei was talking about the time when he was defending the city wall, so he said: "It's almost the same, but there were few people going up at that time, and some people refused to let the ladder be burned, saying that they would let the enemy go up."

Li Wei couldn't help covering his eyes, what a shame.

"Stop arguing, there is a military judge's record behind whoever is the leader."

Levi said loudly.

After hearing Li Wei speak, the guards stopped arguing. After all, it was the words of the Patriarch, so they had to listen.

After killing the enemies who rushed in like chopping melons and vegetables, many people were not satisfied and wanted to rush out.

At this moment, the second horn sounded, and those people had no choice but to retreat unwillingly.

Aulus felt that something was wrong with the enemy in front of him. Facing the officers and soldiers, they were all the same as seeing a stripped beauty, so he ordered the soldiers to retreat temporarily.

There was a burst of cheers and thunder in the manor, and then began to distribute money...

For this victory, Li Wei distributed the money in a very timely manner, as long as he had time.

More than 50 people received 1,000 dinars, and four of them shared two heads, for which they almost fought.

However, the effect was very good, and the morale of Li Wei's guards was very high.

Some people look at those who receive money with green eyes, like wolves.

"I think we can completely kill them, and we can definitely kill them all."

Gaita whispered.

Li Wei nodded, morale is available.

But this is impossible, if he kills too much, he will be under too much pressure.

And the most important reason is that he doesn't have that much money.

He only has about 800,000 dinars in cash left, which is not enough to support the bounty of more than 2,000 soldiers outside.

"Let them stay inside."

Li Wei said, "Wait for our people to come."

Geta nodded, it seems they won this time.

***

***

Aulus still felt a little dizzy outside the manor. His regular army was defeated by a group of guards who had only trained for about two months.

Although there are many veterans among those people, this is not a reason for failure.

And those people's eyes look like they cannibalize people, terribly tight.

"They seem to say you get a thousand dinars for killing a man."

I don't know who said it.

Hearing this, everyone immediately became angry.
