At this moment, they feel that the future is not bleak, but bright.
With this kind of artifact, who else should be afraid of, who else should be afraid of.
The great Macedonian Empire is coming back.
The losers helped the people of the Macedonian province who promised to deliver parts and stones, and their blood was also surging.
The eyes that looked at Xu Ding also became hot and excited, with a long-lost pride and honor.
They are the people who have been living in this land all the time, from generation to generation.
Looking back, they are the people of the Macedonian Empire.
They have always been proud of the hometown of the Great Emperor.
Now that a new emperor is about to be born, will their glory be returned?
"Alexander Qin!"
"Alexander Qin!"
"Alexander Qin!"
All the soldiers shouted, and the folks also shouted, and finally shouted out their hearts.
Only the Roman soldiers in Thessaloniki looked more and more gloomy.
The blow just now proved that the trebuchets of the rebels were useful.
A piece of ordnance larger than the empire's trebuchet, hitting more and throwing heavier, this is really the misfortune of the empire.
"For freedom, shoot me..." Xu Ding clenched his fist, stopped the crowd's cheers, and began to formally attack the city.
Soon the trebuchet began to work busy.
Huge stone bombs were thrown towards the city of Thessaloniki.
After a while, the solid city wall was smashed into pits, especially on both sides near the city gate, as if more than half of it had collapsed.
As for the invisible ground in the city, it was also smashed into a mess, and there were quite a few sunken ground and collapsed houses.
"Open the city gate and attack me. This battle is not only about the honor of our army, but also about the rise and fall of the empire. We not only want to defeat Alexander Qin, but also destroy his trebuchet." The commander of the Ninth Army pulled out his He drew his sword, put on his helmet, pulled off his metal visor, put on his armor, and sat on his horse.
The heavy city gate was pushed open, and the commander of the Ninth Army rushed out with a wave of his general, followed by all the cavalry and knights of the army.
In the back are the centurion-based squads.
"Commander, the gate of Thessaloniki is open." Shoppe hurriedly said to Xu Ding when he saw the gate opened.
A smile finally appeared on Xu Ding's face, and he got on his horse.
"Let me charge the cavalry casually, shop around and bring the infantry to follow us. This battle will crush the Ninth Army and take the city of Thessaloniki!"
The arrival of the Romans was as expected by Xu Ding. If the Romans in the city did not send troops, then he would only feel that he was a fool to the Lord.
"But commander, what about this trebuchet?" asked the shopper.
Obviously the Romans went out of the city because they were afraid of the catapult, and they came to destroy the catapult.
This will not allow them to succeed, and the trebuchet must be protected.
Xu Ding said: "It's a dead thing, don't worry about it, it's useless for the time being, follow me and kill more Romans is the most important thing."
Without hesitation, Xu Dingyi led the cavalry to meet him.
The commander of the Ninth Army who rushed out of the city saw Xu Ding leading the cavalry rushing forward, and knew that he was not an opponent, so he did not choose to face it head-on.
He knew the strength of Alexander Qin too well, no one could fight him one-on-one, and the opponent's cavalry was obviously more than his Ninth Legion's cavalry.
It was impossible to win Xu Ding, so he led the cavalry to the right.
"You want to lure me away, but you underestimate me." Xu Ding drew his bow and shot at the Roman cavalry walking to the right.
The six hundred riders also took their bows and shot arrows, and shot at the Roman cavalry with their buttocks exposed.
The Roman cavalry who fell behind immediately were hit by arrows and fell off their horses.
"Meng Yu leads two hundred riders to chase the enemy, if you can't eliminate them, don't come back to see me." Xu Ding waved his hand, instructing Meng Yu to lead people out of the team.
Meng Yu took the order and led two hundred cavalry to chase after the commander of the Ninth Army and the cavalry behind him.
On the other hand, Xu Ding took four hundred riders and rushed head-on to the infantry of the Ninth Army who had left the city.
The departure of the cavalry and the departure of the regiment commander directly left the infantry of the Ninth Army who had just left the city at a loss as to what to do.
Fortunately, they were in a hundred-man squad, and the captain hurriedly commanded the soldier Ti Dun to hold the javelin.
But this distance is too short, they stop from the march, and have to prepare their defenses, there is no time to line up or put on the best posture.
"Boom!" With a sound Xu Ding took the lead to charge forward, swung his gun and sent several Roman soldiers flying backwards.
The formation of the squad was blasted away, four hundred cavalry rushed in, stabbing with long spears.
The Roman infantry standing in front fell to the ground one after another, or were trampled to death, and their bodies were also bloody.
Xu Ding went on a rampage all the way, picking left and right stabbing, killing regardless of burial, and the Roman infantry who went straight to the city dodged in disorder, and there was no formation at all.
However, the quality of the soldiers of the Roman standing army was still quite high. They were defeated head-on, so they quickly retreated to two retreats, and then rushed to the trebuchet.
You have to pull the pad back before you die.
The shopper followed the cavalry, and a thousand soldiers went down the mountain like tigers, chasing down the Roman soldiers, hacking and killing the Roman soldiers who tried to resist, and kept running towards the city gate.
Capturing the city gate was their most important task, because Xu Ding led the cavalry back from the city gate, and then divided into two teams, one on the left and the other on the right to pick up the Roman soldiers who fled to the two wings.
Of course, the Roman soldiers who wanted to destroy the trebuchet were no exception. They were pierced from behind or fell to the ground by the chasing cavalry.
However, these people were not without results. They still chopped up and damaged some parts. Of course, they also killed more than a dozen people who were trying to protect the trebuchet.
These people really don't want such a killer weapon to be destroyed by the Romans. It is the key to the revival of the Macedonian Empire. As the people of the Macedonian province, they have the responsibility and obligation to guard their households.
Although they did not pledge allegiance to Alexander Qin, they still expressed their stance with their bodies and lives.
"Damn it!" The throwing stone is gone and can be rebuilt, but the newly probated Min Zhuang died, which makes Xu Ding feel a little pity, these people will be the best soldiers in his army in the future.
So Xu Ding, who cursed, brought the two teams of cavalry together again, charged towards the city gate, and chopped down all the Roman soldiers who could still stand up.
