Roman Slave Owner

"Ah... ah..."

A child in his teens was crying, and walked towards the city wall with a few blue bricks in his arms.

Seeing this, the soldiers on the city wall were stunned.

"Bastards! They're all a bunch of bastards!"

"I'm going to kill them! I swear to God, I'm going to kill them!"

"..."

Those soldiers said angrily, only the relatives of the soldiers could live in Dragon City.

After all, some residents retreated too slowly and were captured by pirates.

Plautus felt a burst of despair. If it was an ordinary civilian, he would dare to order the soldiers to shoot.

But these were relatives of the soldiers, and he swore that if he dared to give that kind of order, some soldiers would kill him.

"what should we do?"

Emilia said with a look of fear.

"I'm sorry Patriarch."

Morris was desperate at this time, and he could no longer think of a way to deal with the enemy.

"Don't be discouraged, in fact, things have not reached the point of despair."

At this moment Plautus came over.

"Is there any turning point?"

Emilia asked.

"We also have a large stock of weapons and armor to arm our trained male citizens, and more than four thousand orphans. They are warriors who can fight, provided they are issued with short swords."

said Plautus.

Li Wei recruits Roman orphans every year, and the number of orphans has grown to more than 4,000.

"That's it."

Emilia thought about it.

So they moved quickly to equip the male citizens and orphans with arms and armor.

Seeing that none of the soldiers on the city fired arrows, Relius and Lysix were overjoyed.

So they ordered the civilians to speed up and move all kinds of sand and stones to the bottom of the city wall. Some pirates threatened them with bows and crossbows under the cover of civilians.

At the same time, the catapults continued to attack the nearby city wall. Although the time was limited, there were not many catapults assembled, and the slave craftsmen were not skilled, but if it was just a section of the city wall, I believe it would not take long to break through.

It didn't take long for a narrow slope more than four meters high to be piled up.

A woman suddenly threw the sandbag in her hand to the highest point of the slope, and then rushed towards the city wall through that slope.

"Come here quickly."

A guard on the city wall stretched out his hand and said.

"dream."

A pirate said with a sinister smile, and pulled the trigger after speaking.

Three arrows shot the woman from three different directions, and the woman fell into the arms of the soldier as soon as she climbed the wall.

This made some impulsive civilians calm down immediately.

"I'm going to kill them! I'm going to kill them!"

The soldier said angrily, and then raised the crossbow in his hand and aimed at one of the pirates.

An old man stood in front of him,

The old man smiled miserably, slammed his head back with all his strength, and then rolled to the side.

"Quickly release the arrow!"

said the old man.

The pirate was caught off guard and suffered a burst of pain. At this moment, several arrows shot him at the same time, shooting several big holes in his body.

"This is impossible."

The pirate said unwillingly that he didn't want to leave this colorful world yet.

Lysix gave the pirate a cold look, then pointed at the old man and said, "Kill him."

The old man was quickly shot to death by pirates behind him.

"The Patriarch must avenge me and kill these bastards."

Before dying, the old man laughed loudly.

"continue."

Lysix said coldly.

Under the coercion of the pirates, the civilians had no choice but to continue to widen the slope.

Seeing that the slope was more than 30 meters wide, at this moment, there was a loud bang nearby, and a section of the city wall was smashed down by a trebuchet.

"Pass me the order, give me the attack!"

Lysix said.

Hearing this, the pirates who had been waiting for a long time rushed up immediately.

Many of them have changed into the weapons and equipment of those dead Roman soldiers, and they are not much different from the enemy.

"Let the arrow!"

At this time, a rain of arrows suddenly came from the city wall, and a large number of arrows, javelins, and stones beat the pirates to death.

However, the pirates rushed to the city wall along the slope and fought with the guards on the city wall. The weapons on both sides were equally sharp, but the Roman soldiers were much more elite than them, and soon the pirates were killed and retreated steadily.

Relius said: "It's time for those mercenaries to take action."

"All right."

Lesix thought for a while and said, time is running out, maybe Capua's reinforcements will come soon.

After receiving Lysix's order, those armored mercenaries rushed towards the city wall immediately.

The pirates who were about to be defeated immediately lost their morale when they saw these elites, and continued to kill the Roman soldiers.

The two sides fought fiercely on the city wall, and a guard and pirate fell on the city wall.

Plautus couldn't help being surprised. Those pirates who went up later didn't look like ordinary pirates. They were well-trained and well-coordinated, and they were even equipped with steel swords. They must not be faked by elite soldiers from some country.

But there are too many pirates, and those elite pirates are quite powerful.

More and more guards died, and the walls occupied by pirates became wider and wider, and some even entered the city.

"Put those Roman citizens on top."

Plautus said with a cold face.

Everything is consumable now, as long as it can withstand the attacks of these pirates, it can do anything.

After receiving the order from Plautus, the Roman citizens who came here immediately rushed forward wearing armor and holding a steel sword under the command of a centurion.

Many Romans have received military training since they were young. Although they are not as good as those guards, they are still pretty good.

At this time, there was a burst of loud and clear bugles and horns outside the city.

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"Our reinforcements have arrived."

Plautus said with a look of surprise that this was a signal for the Roman army to attack.

"It's really nice."

Emilia was also ecstatic.

The Roman soldiers cheered and cheered, and their morale was boosted for a while.

"Asshole, it's almost there."

Relius said angrily.

"Send all those trash out and stop them."

Lysix said grimly.

Relius nodded, as long as they had money, they could recruit as many pirates as they wanted.

Except for the mercenaries, all the pirates were sent out to stop Capua's reinforcements.

Those pirates were startled and frightened. The enemy's reinforcements came and they didn't withdraw. What were they thinking?

But due to the prestige of the two, they had no choice but to stop the Roman soldiers.

At this time, Glius had already led people into the outer city, and had a fierce hand-to-hand battle with the pirates.
