Reborn in the Three Kingdoms

The city defense of Ekbatana is quite different from before. The outermost part is the reinforced city wall.

Behind a residential area is an inner moat, and inside the moat are many criss-crossed fortresses.

The governance area is a core fortress, and the shape of these fortresses is somewhat similar to the fortresses in Europe in the Middle World.Actually this

The city defense design is the latest achievement of the Wuyan Institute, mainly to fight against the giant cannon.

Carters threw his helmet to the ground violently, "Damn it! Damn it!" [

"Don't be angry, the general! Now that the city wall has been smashed, it is only too late to capture the city.

Early things! "The general said.

Carters sat down at the top, glanced at the generals under the eagle, and said in a deep voice: "I plan to attack at night, you

Who would like to go? "

The generals exchanged glances, and a general came out and said, "Your Excellency, please let me go!"

Carters glanced at him and nodded, "What are you going to do?"

"First use the infantry to control the walls on both sides of the gap, and then the cavalry will rush in! We will definitely be able to take it all at once.

Outer city! "

Carters thought for a while, nodded and said: "Okay! Just do as you want! If the cavalry successfully enters Li

Immediately send the signal, and I will personally lead the army to enter! ""yes! "

The moonlight was extraordinarily bright that night.

A 5000-man Roman infantry entered the city through the gap by stepping on piles of corpses. They were surprised

Suddenly, I found that there was no guard nearby! .The leading officer couldn't help but have a bad feeling, but at this time

He also had no choice but to quickly occupy the city walls on both sides of the gap according to the previous plan, and then sent a signal to the outside of the city.Immediately after

Twenty thousand light cavalry rushed in quickly, occupying the city gate that was not guarded by a single soldier.

"General, do you feel like you're murmuring your bow?" An officer asked suspiciously.

The general couldn't help hesitating for a moment, but quickly suppressed the doubts in his heart, "Don't think wildly!

The people of Qin knew that they could not defend the outer city, so they gave up the defense of the outer city. This is not surprising!send a letter immediately

Number! ""yes! "[

The signal rocket rose into the night sky, conspicuously.

Carters, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately led the army to rush towards the city gate.

When the army entered the city gate, Carters felt that the atmosphere was not right, and asked quickly: "When you entered the city?

met no resistance at all times? "

The general shook his head, "No!"

Carters couldn't help jumping in his heart, a bad premonition surged up, he looked around, and said anxiously

"Exit immediately!"

As soon as the voice fell, a huge explosion suddenly sounded from the left, followed by explosions one after another

At the scene, the fire was shining and the flames were churning, and many Roman soldiers were engulfed.

"Go back! Go back!" Carters yelled.

The soldiers of the Roman army rushed out of the city in a hurry, trampling on each other, and the scene was extremely chaotic.At this time, the artillery fire on the opposite side of the inner moat blazed, and the roaring artillery made the Roman army even more confused.

The Roman army fled the city in a hurry, leaving behind countless corpses.

Back at the camp, all the generals were very depressed.In fact, their actions this time are not completely

There was no gain, at least they figured out the characteristics of the Qin army's layout. The main force of the Qin army had been scattered behind the inner moat, and the outside

There are only a few troops in the city, but even so, the Roman army can't easily occupy the outer city, or just occupy the outer city.

It is not good for them. As long as they enter that area, they will enter the death zone controlled by the artillery fire of the Qin army, and Rome

It is difficult for human artillery to deploy there.

The next day, the Roman army launched an offensive against the Qin army again. This time they used a different method.

Use a siege scale cart near the city wall to throw gunpowder into the city. This kind of siege scale cart is a kind of catapult.

The passing power is much greater than that of ordinary catapults, and the road is much more curved, so it can attack the city near the city wall.

However, this kind of siege scale vehicle has a big disadvantage, that is, the hit rate is extremely low, which is lower than that of ordinary throwing vehicles.

The stone cart is even lower. [

The gunpowder exploded like raindrops falling inside and outside the inner moat, explosions came and went, flames churned, Qin

The army's fortifications suffered considerable damage, and soldiers were engulfed in flames from time to time.

After several rounds of bombardment, the Roman assault force launched an attack.

However, the progress made Carters frown.It was difficult for the Roman army to survive under the fierce artillery fire and arrow rain of the Qin army.

It becomes a powerful attacking front line, and once it rushes to the moat, the situation is even more unfavorable. The unshielded Roman army

The soldiers are simply the living targets of the Qin army's artillery and crossbows.

However, Carters had no choice but to order a temporary retreat.

Frustrated in successive attacks, Carters' confidence was hit hard. At the same time, he was extremely annoyed, and his mood became extremely violent! ~!
