Soros and his sailors also held weapons in their hands, and pushed forward, stabbing the Romans who rushed up.

Of course, more people were still rushing forward when their companions fell down, and the two armies fought hand-to-hand in an instant, and there was a bloody battle.

Chapter 703 The Death of Chuan Pu (Two in One)

"kill!"

When this legion was fully engaged in the battle with the navy, it abandoned the flanks according to the scriptures. Xu Ding led the cavalry to take advantage of the situation and directly cut off the entire legion at the waist, then attacked the center and continued to strangle and strangle.

Limbs flew across the road, bloody and bloody, and the Roman soldiers of this army avoided one after another, and directly broke off with the legion commander.

But the foot combat of the Roman army is indeed powerful.

Soros had the advantage in numbers and added a small amount of trebuchets as a deterrent, but he was still pierced by the rushing party and rushed out, leading a small number of people to the west and escaping across the Luce River.

Of course, Soros was not disappointed, and he still commanded the troops to cull eastward, plugging the leak, in order to reap the lives of the Roman soldiers of this subsidiary legion.

Xu Ding rushed back and forth to the east several times, smashed the Roman soldiers and soldiers, and handed over the task of destroying the remnants of the enemy to Soros' navy, and then led the cavalry to chase after the escaped legion. long.

The cavalry wanted to chase, but they caught up in a short while, shooting arrows from behind, and constantly biting.

The army commander's small number of soldiers rapidly decreased, and in the end he still died under Xu Ding's arrows.

After beheading the army commander, Xu Ding stopped chasing and turned back. At this time, the battle on Soros' side was coming to an end, and he was chasing small groups of defeated soldiers everywhere.

"Commander, please apologise. Not only did our army fail to stop Trump's affiliated army, but this one almost let go." Soros came to plead guilty a little indebtedly.

Xu Ding said: "It's not a crime of war. You are the navy and should be fighting on the water. It's really difficult to transfer to the land. Chuanpu can't run away. Kavala is in our hands. He is still meat on the chopping board."

After speaking, Xu Ding patted Qi on the shoulder, pointed to the devastated battlefield and said: "Clean the battlefield, gather the wounded soldiers, and count the casualties. We will go to Kavala later."

"It's the commander in chief!"

In the end, the statistics of the navy came out, and the casualties were as high as about 3000, which was no less than that of the Roman army.

The real damage to the enemy is one thousand, and the self damage is eight hundred.

But apart from Soros sighing a little, Xu Ding was not surprised by this result.

The combat effectiveness of the water army was already poor, but with the addition of the Roman army, which was dying to break through, there was a small explosion in combat effectiveness.

The casualties of the naval army were only about [-]. In fact, it was very economical to fight.

Of course, the elimination of this Roman subsidiary legion was largely due to the assistance of cavalry and trebuchets.

Leaving the wounded soldiers and supplies behind, Xu Ding and the others immediately headed towards Kavala.

At this time, Chuan Pu and others fled back to Kavala according to the scriptures, but when they arrived at the city, they were immediately greeted by Jian Yu and Rolling Stone.

At this time, Chuan Pu and others knew that Kavala had fallen and was captured by the rebel army.

"What should the elder do?"

Except for Kavala, which can lead westward to Central Macedonia, there is only the sea route left.

There are mountains to the north, and there is no way to go.

Chuan Pu said: "Siege the city, attack the city immediately, and take Kavala for me."

"Siege! Siege immediately!" The chiefs and deputy army commanders immediately ordered to prepare for the siege.

Of course, it is impossible to rush directly to the city gate when attacking the city. At least some wood must be cut to make bumpers or ladders.

After a little busy work, these crude siege tools were finally ready, and the Romans immediately launched a siege battle.

The defenders on the east side of the city were also ready. Seeing the enemy troops rushing towards the city like a tide, they also launched a fierce counterattack.

Various methods of defending the city also called the Roman army under the city.

"Come on! Throw a gun at me, if you can't beat Varkala, we are all going to die, hurry up..."

The officers of the Roman army kept shouting orders to beat chicken blood.

This is really useful for the Roman army. In order to save lives, Kavala can only be taken down.

So the Roman army showed extraordinary will and fierce fighting power, rushed to the bottom of the city, completely ignored the arrows and rolling stones shot from the city, and only wanted to throw the light javelin in your hand on the wall.

Shoot and kill the defenders on the city.

So this offensive and defensive battle was quite fierce. If it wasn't for the young infantry general who followed Xu Ding to supervise the battle, Soros' navy army might retreat to the city and lose the city wall.

Half an hour was very long, and the attacking side suffered anxiously.

The defending side also gritted their teeth and persisted bit by bit. The wounded soldiers kept being carried down, and people from the city kept replenishing them. Batch after batch were replaced, and batch after batch died.

Half an hour was like visiting the [-]th hell, and I couldn't stand the thought of giving up at any time.

But Chengxia Chuanpu and others continued to attack and worked hard to output.

Under the city, corpses, trees, and rolling stones were piled up layer by layer, and the layers were getting higher and higher.

The city gate was also crumbling, as if the next collision could break open, but it was often interrupted, and Roman officials had to send batches of soldiers to take over.

"boom!"

Finally the city gate was knocked open, half of the gate tilted and toppled.

As soon as the city gate was opened, all the Roman soldiers were as excited as blood.

Chuan Pu and the others also smiled, and took a long breath.

Kavala finally captured, and his life was saved.

"Kill!" The roar of the sky continued to vent from the mouths of the Roman soldiers, and the defenders in the city turned pale, and retreated towards the pier while fighting.

Of course, there are still some who are not in a hurry to withdraw, so they can only give up dealing with the Roman army outside the city, and instead stick to the city wall, competing with the Roman army for control of the parapet.

Therefore, the defenders of these cities are also at their desperate and bravest time.

The current situation is very unfavorable to them. If they want to survive, they can only fight desperately, fighting to the end with the Roman army trying to climb the wall.

The vengeance of the Romans was strong, and they would not be pardoned and treated well if they surrendered.

Instead, he would be crucified and fed to crows.

"Puff...!" It was another bloody battle, with close combat and non-stop killing.

The torment at this moment is even more terrible, there is no hope, no future, and I don't know how to persevere, so I can only fight back instinctively.
