lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the Mediterranean Overlord of Ancient Greece!

Just as they were talking, part of the light infantry of the Eighth Army had already approached the city wall, firing bows and arrows at the top of the city. Under their cover, other soldiers formed a group of soldiers and moved forward quickly. The trenches and moats were not dug in front of the city wall. They soon came down to the city. While holding a long shield to defend against the attack on the city, they put a ladder on the top of the city, and the siege began...

The soldiers of the Dionian regiment concentrated on two places on the wall of the port area to launch an offensive. One is at the junction between the natural breakwater on the southernmost side and the land-Tap Gate. The soldiers of the Second Legion attempted to break it and rushed directly into the walkway of the city wall; the other was at the northernmost point near the harbour. Eighth The legion mainly used the method of ant attachment to attack the city, which contained a lot of the strength of the defending army. The distance between the two is about a mile. One of the Dionian armies is in the city and the other is under the city. It is impossible to cooperate with each other. If the attack of the Second Army was relatively fierce at the beginning, it was after Leotizides. After the announcement, the offensives of the two legions became more stable and less aggressive, and of course the casualties of soldiers dropped sharply.

Imisele, who was frightened at first, had confidence after seeing the soldiers repelling the siege Dionians several times. He even began to think: With about 8,000 on the wall A soldier, even without Margo’s reinforcements, could easily repel the Dionian siege.

Until a team officer ran up to the city in fear and reported to him in panic: "My lord, there are many...many Dionians...Dionian soldiers. It’s coming to town!!"

Imisele first gave him a powerful slap, and then roared angrily: "Are you fainted! The Dionians are here! You talk nonsense again, shake the army, and I will slash It’s your head!" Since the signing of the peace agreement with Dionia, Lilibo’s maritime trade has become more prosperous, which has also led to more and more residents of Lilippi. However, the barriers to settlement in the city are very high. Many people from Cathay Pacific and the allied states of the Philippines choose to live in the port area. As there are few farmland opened up by the granules outside the city, the food is completely incapable of self-sufficiency, so the demand is very large, relying on the sea food trade to solve the problem, mainly from home For Taiwanese machines, although people who are too anxious rely on the vast land of Lumibia, there is sufficient food every year, but the grain is shipped to the grains by sea. The price is not low and the competition is fierce. La La La is also a member of the Hanluo family. He settled in the Lilipi port area 10 years ago. He is mainly engaged in the food trade. In the past few years, he has not benefited much from the market competition, so he racked his brains to find something else. To make money, he found that Chen Lei’s military barracks had a sufficient supply of rations, and there was a lot of surplus at the end of the year. At this time, the defending general was also a member of the Hanno family. The relationship between the two was good before, so he So I came to him to discuss cooperation matters secretly. After Leo Tisides solemnly instructed him, he walked into the warehouse with the captain of the guard. There were a lot of things piled up in the warehouse, and a dim light flashed in a corner of the front. Sekelian and seven or eight soldiers formed a circle, and there were several soldiers guarding the two prisoners. Hearing the footsteps, Sekelian turned his head and looked back, and then said triumphantly: Prosous come and see, I have brought you a good opportunity to make great achievements! Leotichides ignored his pride and strode over. The soldiers hurriedly made room to show that what Leotichides had in front of him was not the dark hole he had imagined, but more like it. It is a cellar with one-step stone ladders, a wall lamp, a hard ground, piled stone walls and iron pillars support, a straight **** leads all the way to the black paint front... .. Leo Chichides stood at the entrance of this width to allow three adults to observe in parallel for a long time before stepping on the stone ladder and going up to the warehouse. The first sentence he said was: such an authenticity. It is not a short time to dig out. of course not. Sekelian looked at the two gagged Ga Tai Chi prisoners next to him contemptuously: These are the masterpieces of the greedy family and businessmen! ...It turns out that the mitochondria was originally established by Hilmik and later rebuilt by Marco. Originally, a military defense system was established with him as the center to resist the attack of the Greek Kuzhas, but Unexpectedly, not long after the Greek expansion was defeated by Dionia, the hegemony was lost, Canada Tai Chi and Dioria signed a peace agreement. Since then, Sicily has restored peace and the original defense plan was aborted. Lilypig's natural vigilance against taking Oria, the Greek government, still retains its status as a military center, and the subsequent retention also includes the dispatch of garrisons to Lilypig, but the number of civilian soldiers has been greatly reduced. At this time, the family was too anxious at home, Magri’s family was far away from Villa, and Hanluo was in power. Under his vigorous promotion, Jiatai has begun to advance inland and invaded the land of the Lumibians on a large scale. The citizens are too impatient to share the fruits of the war, and no one wants to be drawn to Lilibi to defend the city, even if it is just a rotation. Therefore, adding Tai Chi to give Lili sufficient logistical support and additional compensation to the defenders is to allow them to perform their duties with peace of mind. Even so, it is still a chore to go to Lilibi to defend the city in the hearts of Tai Chi citizens at home. Seven years ago, a member of the Hanlo family was appointed as Lilybe’s garrison general. He was unwilling to go and even went to Hanno to intercede with him. The result was unsuccessful because the position of Lilybe’s garrison general became a big problem. In addition, no one in Tai Chi nobles wants to take office. Hanno, who is in power, must of course be a role model. He could only come to Lilibi with a grievance. Just a few days after staying, la la la from the port area came to visit. After the two had a close conversation, the defending general cleared all his grievances and performed earnestly. Take up his duties. After Leo Tisides solemnly instructed him, he walked into the warehouse with the captain of the guard.

Take up his duties.

The team officer covered his face, and anxiously defended: "My lord...it's true! The Dionians suddenly appeared in the southwestern barracks and attacked our garrison soldiers! I finally escaped. Come out!—"

"Shut up!" Imisele raised his hand angrily, and the team officer quickly backed away.

"This man is crazy, grab me quickly!" Imisele glared at the team officer and gave orders to the soldiers beside him.

Seeing that he was **** and gagged, Imisele sneered in his heart: Suddenly appeared in the Southwest Barracks? Hmph, do you think that the Dionians are gods who can fly over this high wall? !

At this moment, "Woo!..." Suddenly a high-pitched bugle sounded in the city. This horn sound was obviously different from that of Carthage, which caused a huge shock in Imisele's heart. .

And this is, there are soldiers in the city crying in panic: "Oh my God! Look, the Dionians! The Dionians are coming from behind!..."

Imisele pushed aside the soldiers around him, staggered a few steps to the edge of the battlements, and hurriedly looked into the city: I saw many soldiers in black helmets and black armor rushing into the firelight of the city. Behind them, in the dim night, there are more figures surging, like a terrifying dark tide about to destroy the city wall.

Imisele felt that his whole body was weak, and his fear made him almost unable to stand. At this time, there was only one thought in his mind: Lili is over!

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

Leotizides first asked his detachment soldiers and mountain scouts to quickly find tools for digging from the houses in the residential area, then entered the tunnel and stepped up to dig through the exits. At the same time, according to the planned plan, he divided two-fifths of the Eighth Army into a frontal siege to attract the attention of the defenders, while the rest of the soldiers quietly entered the house of Lampukuba according to his previous instructions.

In addition, he also sent someone to notify Matonis, asking him to immediately rush half of the soldiers of the Second Corps gathered on the embankment and sneak into the city together. Of course, he also notified the thousands of soldiers of the Third Fleet. , They quietly entered the tunnel in batches.

The authentic exit is in the luggage warehouse of the Southwest Camp. It was originally located in a remote area. In addition, the soldiers from the Southwest Barracks have basically arrived at the head of the city to defend. Focus on the side of the heavy warehouse.

After the advance troops of the Eighth Army dig through the tunnel and enter the warehouse, they did not immediately launch an offensive with fanfare, but lurked around and protected the tunnel exit. It was not until the number increased to thousands of people that the guards found the traces, and the Dionian army also took advantage of the situation to launch an offensive, almost completely annihilating this small force, and then occupied the entire southwest military camp.

Dionian soldiers continued to drill out of the tunnel. When Leonia also came to this barracks, the number had increased to 2,000. He rectified a bit and immediately issued the order to attack.

The Dionian soldiers quickly attacked the defenders of the inner wall not far from the barracks, and the sound of the bugle also inspired the Dionian army fighting in the port, and they also increased their attack on the wall. The strength of the offense.

The Lili defenders defending at the head of the city were caught in a two-sided attack. The 2,000 soldiers from the southeast army camp who stayed behind in the city learned the news and hurriedly rushed for reinforcements. As a result, they were assaulted by soldiers of the Second Corps and the infantry of the Third Fleet who subsequently drilled out of the tunnel, and they were quickly defeated.

The Carthage soldiers at the head of the city saw an increasing number of enemies coming from the city, and their hearts were astonished. In addition, because of their attack, the city seemed to explode and countless residents. Fleeing in panic, screaming in terror in the dark, echoing the people in the port area, and making the Carthaginian soldiers worried. They can ignore the lives of the people in the port area, but they cannot abandon their families in the city, so they give up one after another. Because of the defense at the city head, I chose to rescue the family members in the city, but the stone ladders on the inner wall were blocked by Dionian soldiers. They fled eastward along the walkway of the city wall, and the defense line of the entire city head followed. The collapse.

Imisely and Ragnaka had trouble seeing things, and fled eastward under the protection of guards.

Under the order of Leotizides, the Dionian soldiers after the rendezvous did not cut off the return of the Carthage’s defeated soldiers, but pursued them in the rear and refused to give the Carthaginians. For a chance to breathe and reorganize, along the walkways of the city and the streets of the city, the remaining Carthage soldiers and people in the city were expelled from the city of Lilibo...

After daybreak, the Dionian army occupied the city of Lilivi. Except for a part of the Carthaginian soldiers and the city people who fell into siege and surrendered, the rest fled outside the city.

Leotizides and Matonis did not have time to celebrate this important victory, nor time for the soldiers to rest well. Instead, they seized the time to clean up the battlefield in the city, familiarize themselves with the defense facilities in the city, and arrange the various branches. The defense zone of the army.

Sekrian sent a clipper to Minoa to report the good news of victory to King Daves. At the same time, the Sicilian fleet arrested all the people in the port area, escorted them on board, and sent them to the Minoa camp. , And then transferred from the fleet to the rear, avoiding the attack of the Carthaginian army while also sparing out troops to take care of these port people who may make trouble at any time. The Third Fleet will **** them to prevent the Carthaginian fleet's surprise attack.

Only the dock workers who are willing to join the Kingdom of Dionian are left in the port area, and they are needed to load and unload cargo for the Dionian fleet that will come to Lilibo in the future.

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

Because it was at night and couldn't see the road clearly, Lilibo's messenger didn't dare to let go, so it took nearly two hours to reach the Carthage camp.

Margo was shocked when he learned that the port of Liliba had been attacked, and scolded Imisele for negligence.

Liliba is too important to the Carthage army in Sicily. How dare Margo take it lightly? He decided to let Pomirka sit in the camp for him, and personally led 30,000 soldiers to rush for reinforcements.

In the middle of the night, it is not easy to gather the soldiers who are still sleeping, and the number is still such a large number. Even after these months of training, the discipline of the entire army has been greatly improved. It took more than three hours for my brother to lead the reinforcements out of the camp.

At this time, it was dawn. In order to ensure that the soldiers had enough energy to fight after they arrived at Lilibo, Margot did not give the order to march quickly. After all, he has confidence in Lilibo’s city defense. , The worst prediction in my mind is that the Dionian army destroyed the port of Lilibo and then fled. Of course, the most beautiful idea is-when the reinforcements arrive, the Dionians are still attacking the city, then he can kill the messengers who are "more than 20,000 elite Dionians", and thus Inflict a heavy blow on the main army of Dionia and restore the morale of the Carthaginians.

As a result, halfway through, I saw a large number of Liliba soldiers and people fleeing in a hurry. I learned that Liliba City had been occupied by the Dionians, and Margot almost fell down immediately if he was hit by five thunders. .

After finally catching his breath, he didn't say a word, and asked the soldiers to arrest Imisele and Ragnaca who had come to complain, and then ordered the whole army to speed up.

When I arrived outside the city of Lilivi, I saw the drawn suspension bridge, the pressing gate, and the Dionian soldiers all over the city. The last trace of luck in Margo's heart was also broken.

He rode a war horse and walked anxiously in front of the demoralized team, he was at a loss for a while: because he led the troops out, he did not consider that the city would fall, so he didn't bring any siege at all. Equipment, and as Carthage’s military center in Sicily, Lilibu City has thick walls, towers, and wide and deep trenches. It will never be easily captured; if he returns to the camp, more will be When the army is transferred here, the Dionians in the city also have more time and are fully prepared for defense. Then he must rework his siege plan, start to build new siege facilities, and spend more Time to conquer this fortified city, but does the Carthage army still have enough time?
