Da Qin: We just traveled through time and you proclaimed yourself emperor in Rome

Chapter 169 The city of Rome was captured!

As the entire Parthian Empire migrates to the west, it will pay a heavy price on the way. If it cannot annex the Western forces, it will be equivalent to sending people to their doorsteps.

"I think we should not get into trouble now, but should delay as much time as possible." Kautilya said again.

Everyone's eyes turned in his direction.

Even Ashoka couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, wondering what he meant by this.

"Although we don't know how the West will end, one thing is certain, that is, Ying Tian will definitely die. Just imagine, after the news spreads, can Qin Shihuang not be angry? When Qin Shihuang is furious, he will definitely lead his army Go to the west and avenge Ying Tian, ​​so we will have an opportunity."

Kodeliya did not hide it, but directly expressed his conjecture.

During these days, I investigated a lot of information and found out that Ying Tian was the most favored by Qin Shihuang and had a high status in Qin Shihuang's heart.

Moreover, Ying Tian was able to be entrusted with the important task of Qin Shihuang and go to the west to fight against Rome, which is enough to prove his value in the Qin Dynasty.

"Do you think Qin Shihuang is a fool? He will be extremely angry after Ying Tian's death, but he will definitely wait for the war situation in the east to stabilize before taking revenge. It is impossible to just lead the army to the west without hesitation."

Ashoka shook his head without thinking.

Only those who sit in this position will understand that what they represent is no longer themselves, but also the countless people behind them.

Ask yourself if his direct descendant is killed, he will be angry and take revenge, but he will never ignore it.

I believe Qin Shihuang will do the same.

"Then there is only one choice left. Lead the 700 million troops behind you and fight to the west, so that the mantis can catch the cicada and the fisherman will profit!" Kodeliya said.

Going to the west would at least have a chance to turn the tide of the war. If Banshi returned to the DPRK, it would really be over.

After the Qin State destroyed the eighteen small countries, it could turn its gun and destroy the Maurya Dynasty easily.

Ashoka didn't speak anymore, frowned and fell into deep thought.

The same goes for the people next to them, their expressions became uncertain.

Another advantage of doing this is that it can catch everyone off guard. No one would have thought that the Maurya Dynasty would fight against the odds at this time.

"Isn't it too risky to do this? Once it fails, it will really be over?" Not to mention other people, even the resolute King Asoka hesitated at this moment.

Don't know what to do.

"Is it possible to divide the army into two, with some going back to resist Da Qin, and some..."

The bald general spoke hesitantly.

But before he could finish his words, Kodeliya shook his head decisively, "Although a war is breaking out in the West, no one can guarantee whether there will be any accidents. If we divide our forces, everything may fail."

It's a big gamble!
Almost everyone in the Mauryan Dynasty lost his life.

"How long can the soldiers remaining in the imperial city resist Wang Jian?"

Ashoka reached out and touched his nose and asked thoughtfully.

My brain was spinning rapidly, thinking about the possibility of this matter.

"If Qin Shihuang does not continue to send troops, it is not a problem to persist for three years, but if everyone fights to the death, they should be able to persist for five years."

The bald general felt a little heavy.

No one expected that they would be in dire straits so quickly.

In addition, there is a very serious problem.

The population base was the Maurya Dynasty's biggest trump card. If too many people died, even if they occupied the west, the gains would outweigh the losses, and it would be difficult to face the Qin in the future.

Not to mention, this place is nearly a thousand kilometers away from Rome, and a huge amount of food and grass will be consumed on the way.

Moreover, even if we knew that something happened to the Maurya Dynasty, we would not be able to rush back. It would take at least nearly two years to go back and forth.

"Let's do it like this. Pass on my order. The cavalry will take the lead. They will definitely rush to the west as quickly as possible. As for the infantry and logistics troops, they will follow closely."

Ashoka thought for a long time, and after weighing the pros and cons in his mind, he waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.

The fighting spirit that faded from his eyes rose again.

This time it was very risky, I put everything on the line, and if I failed, I would never be able to recover.

But if you don't do this, you won't even have a chance to reverse it.

"As ordered."

Everyone said nothing more and began to lead the army forward.

It is worth mentioning that all the small forces on the road have been destroyed by the Kingdom of Macedonia, so there is no need to worry about the news leaking in a short time.

Although all forces have their sights set on it, the news was not delivered that quickly in ancient times.

Half a month later, everyone began to feel nervous.

In ancient times, it snowed heavily all over the sky again. The snow fell very hard. In just half a month, it covered the ground more than half a meter high, and the whole world became covered in silver.

Someone has keenly discovered that this winter, the temperature has plummeted rapidly, which is even more terrifying than last year. Those forces that have not received rewards may be eliminated.

"Is it snowing again?"

Ying Tian stood on the city wall, looking at the snowflakes in the sky outside the city, and couldn't help but feel filled with emotion.

Time flies by really fast. Before I know it, a whole year has passed by in the blink of an eye.

After more than two months of development, the arrow tower has been upgraded to level three. Compared with before, the attack power and range have been improved again, greatly enhancing the defensive capabilities.

The military camp recruited more than 4000 soldiers, bringing the total number of soldiers to [-].

The free attribute points have accumulated to 3800, and there is only one thousand points left to upgrade the military camp.

What made him helpless was that during this period, despite trying all kinds of temptations, Philip IV and others seemed to be determined and refused to attack the city life or death.

"Aren't you still planning to start a war?"

Ying Tian looked outside the city and roared dissatisfied.

Philip IV and others set up tents one after another outside the city, set up several large iron pots, and wore thick cotton clothes. They looked like they were going to last forever.

"Your Majesty, when can the war begin? The war over the Fourth Young Master is almost over."

Wang Li was lying on the city wall, holding his head with both hands, and said quietly.

There are too few people in the city and there is no strength to fight out. Otherwise, he will definitely lead his army to attack without hesitation, letting these people see how powerful the old Qin people are.

Whenever he thought of Li Xin's pretending to be galloping on the battlefield, he felt itchy.

"Your Majesty, all the ministers who should have done so have done so, and they are even willing to let their informants go into the city to check, but they still don't believe it." A look of helplessness also appeared on Zhang Jiu's face.

In order for Philip IV to attack, a ladder was lowered directly on the city wall to indicate that they could enter.

However, Philip IV firmly believed that Ying Tian did it on purpose and would not kill him.

Alexander Yun sat next to him, looking at the three people in front of him, he was so numb that he could no longer be numb.

For more than two months, Ying Tian took her around the city dozens of times, inside and out. Even the number of ants and bricks in the city could be clearly seen by future generations.

I can’t understand why Philip IV didn’t attack with such a good opportunity.

On the surface, it may indeed be a conspiracy, but if you can see it so clearly, what other trap could there be?
Ying Tian lay on the sofa a little bored, feeling the soft, boneless hands of the Roman princess, and began to close his eyes and meditate.

As time passed, the snow fell heavier and heavier, almost completely freezing the world. The bodies under the wall were no longer visible and were frozen into blocks of ice.

half a month later.

Ying Tian was planning to have hot pot with Wang Li, Zhang Jiu and the soldiers as usual. At this moment, a loud horn suddenly sounded in the opponent's military camp.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he looked up.

I saw Philip IV sitting on a chariot with a golden sword, pointing a finger at him from a distance, as if he would not break Rome without returning it.

The soldiers behind him were wearing helmets and armor and were ready to attack.

The most eye-catching thing is the 30 ordinary people in front. These people are not wearing equipment and are wearing thick cotton-padded clothes, but the cotton-padded clothes are dripping into the water.

At first, people didn't realize it and didn't know why they had to wear wet clothes in the winter.

But soon, someone reacted.

"The weather is hot in summer, and the body is easily burned, but it is different in winter. The weather is cold, and it is difficult to burn the body with fire. If the body cannot be burned, it will freeze into ice."

"The purpose of wearing wet clothes is to freeze into ice faster after death."

"Philip IV. Wants to use the corpses of these people to pile up an iceberg and enter the city!"

Mr. Wang suddenly stood up from his chair and exclaimed.

The next second, Philip IV's order confirmed his guess.

"Ying Tian, ​​today I want to see what secrets are hidden in your city. I have endured the humiliation and burden for so long. You have caused me so much pain."

Philip IV smiled coldly and then gave the order.

More than 30 people rushed forward through heavy snow.

Originally, the city wall was 50 meters high, but now there was a lot of heavy snow underneath, leaving only about 45 meters.

Philip IV's method soon worked. As corpses were killed one after another, the cotton clothes on their bodies were quickly frozen and turned into ice cubes.

A few days later, 30 ice cones condensed under the city wall, paving a nearly 40-meter-high avenue to the sky.

Wang Li and Zhang Jiu's expressions changed and became extremely ugly.

Before this, I never imagined that Philip IV could come up with such a method.

"kill!"

There was an angry cry of killing among the Macedonian army.

These soldiers held their breath in their hearts and vowed to kill Ying Tian.

One by one, like wild dogs running loose, they rushed to the bottom of the city wall as fast as they could, brought the ladders, and climbed up with both hands.

The 50-meter-high city wall is out of reach with a ladder, but when the city wall becomes more than ten meters high, it is easy to step in.

Fortunately, although Qin Bing had relaxed his vigilance in the past few days, he was always on guard, so he was not caught off guard.

Everyone reacted quickly and kicked over the ladder they had climbed up.

However, every time a soldier died, the wall became shorter.

In just two days, the city wall was only six meters high from the ground.

: Ying Laoliu is dead, this time he is really dead

: Isn’t Ying Laoliu very arrogant?Isn’t it true that no one can hold your own against you?I want to see how you can change your fate this time.
: Even if Brother Zheng comes, I’m afraid he won’t be able to save Ninth Young Master. Alas, it’s really dangerous.
: God’s will, this is really God’s will. Who would have thought that Philip IV would use winter to make such a surprising move?

The people in the live broadcast room had mixed feelings in their hearts.This move was really unexpected.

Everyone believed that many small countries in the West would weaken their combat effectiveness in winter, or even lose their combat effectiveness directly. However, Philip IV turned the disadvantage into an advantage.

Coupled with the numerical advantage, it was easy to break through Da Qin's defenses.

"Your Majesty, there is only one last option left, and that is to run." Alexander Yun said with an anxious look on his face.

By Ying Tian's side, she could at least stay alive. Once caught by the enemy, it would really be over.

Moreover, if Ying Tian is really in danger, he will probably kill her immediately.

No matter what, she didn't want Ying Tian to be in danger.

The nearly 50 billion people in the live broadcast room all looked at Ying Tian, ​​wanting to see what decision Ying Tian would make. When people saw Ying Tian's face, they were slightly startled.

From beginning to end, Ying Tian was as calm as ever, very calm and calm.

Not only Ying Tian, ​​but also the soldiers behind him all looked indifferent.

Everyone's hearts trembled, and a bad premonition arose, as if something was about to happen.

It's really Ying Tian's expression that makes it difficult not to panic.

"Ying Tian, ​​why keep pretending? If I can't kill you today, I will write my name upside down!" Philip IV put his hands behind his back and shouted arrogantly.

He has not been idle for more than three months.

He had thought through almost all the backup plans that Ying Tian could have, and vowed not to miss anything.

Unless Ying Tian spreads his wings and flies away, there is no way to survive.

And if he could really grow wings, then he would admit that he had lost this battle.

"You guy, why are you talking so much nonsense? If you want to attack, attack quickly. Why waste my time here?" Ying Tian raised his eyelids and said with contempt.

He casually set his eyes on the arrow tower.

[Arrow Tower lv3]

Range: 2300 meters

Rate of fire: 1 shot/5 seconds

Attack: 800
Defense: 800
Tip: 1 soldier recruited from the military camp is required to fill the crossbow bolts

After the arrow tower reaches level three, its attack power reaches a terrifying [-] points, which is only [-] points worse than the bed crossbow. Almost every shot can take away two lives.

In addition, the range has been increased by 200 meters.

He withdrew his gaze and looked outside the city casually. With Wang Li presiding over the war, there was no need to worry too much.

Different from Ying Tian's calmness, Wang Li and Zhang Jiu's faces were full of nervousness.

In the eyes of outsiders, there might be some kind of backup plan left in the city, but only the two of them knew that there really was nothing.

Ten days later, the city wall was completely filled in. From the city wall to the outside of the city, there was a gentle slope with a not very large angle, allowing people outside the city to directly enter the city.

All the Macedonian soldiers were excited and their blood boiled.

"kill!"

An army of more than 400 million people roared crazily and charged into the city.

The Qin crossbow, arrow tower, and bed crossbow have terrible attack power and can cause great casualties.

But with their numerical advantage, they didn't care at all.

After paying the price of nearly 20 lives, they successfully reached the city wall and poured into the city wall.

At this moment, Philip IV suddenly burst into tears.

He secretly swore in his heart that when he caught Ying Tianhou, he would be tortured to death and let out a good sigh of relief.

"Blood is not dry!"

"No truce!"

A low shout came from Lao Qin's mouth, his eyes were as calm as ever, and he stood guard around the city wall, guarding Ying Tian airtight.

After the Macedonians attacked, they immediately destroyed the arrow tower and bed crossbow.

This kind of killing weapon has a great impact on the war.

But it was quickly discovered that these buildings were extremely hard and could not even break through their defenses. Even the heavy weapons they brought with them could not withstand them at all.

"The defense power of the arrow tower and bed crossbow is as high as eight or nine hundred points. Compared with my physical body, it is only a little inferior. Do you think it is a joke?" Ying Tian couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.

He was also afraid that after these people broke through the city wall, they would damage their own buildings, so he had tried it before and found that it was surprisingly hard and ordinary weapons could not break through the defense.

"Retreat, there is no need to continue guarding the city wall, retreat to the palace."

Ying Tian waved his hand and retreated with Wang Li and others.

The city wall is useless, and there is no point in staying here.

The soldiers in the arrow tower are protected by the arrow tower, so there is no need to worry.

Immediately, more than 3 soldiers quickly gathered in the direction of the palace.

When they were on the city wall, more than 3 people lined up in a row, which seemed a bit sparse in number. However, when they all gathered outside the palace, they completely formed a military formation and looked murderous.

"Kill in!"

Philip IV roared with great enthusiasm, as if he was watching victory waving to him.

As the order was given, millions of soldiers went crazy.

One by one, they rushed forward and vowed to kill Ying Tian and others.

Soon, some netizens discovered a bug in the Arrow Tower.
: By the way, have you noticed the arrow towers and bed crossbows on the city wall? They seem to have been attacking for more than a month.
: Philip IV was a fool, so why didn’t he destroy these two buildings?

: Although they have captured the city, arrow towers and bed crossbows, they can cause nearly 12 casualties every hour, [-] in one day. Such damage should not be underestimated.
: In the past, these people could avoid being trampled by crossbows outside the city. Now, they are within the shooting range of towers in the highway city at all times. The price of 10 people a day is 100 million in ten days. Man, how dare they?

As everyone knows, Philip IV is also a little confused at this moment.

"What are you talking about? The arrow tower and bed crossbow cannot be damaged. How is this possible?"

A courtier stood beside the chariot and said helplessly,

"Your Majesty, what I said is true. Our weapons cannot harm it at all, and cannot leave any traces on it."

Philip IV frowned and turned to look at the city wall.

After a slight hesitation, he still did not attack in person.

"Let everyone prepare their shields to defend against the attack from the arrow tower, and then make sure to kill Ying Tian and others within a short time." He ordered.

however.

More than a month and a half passed in the blink of an eye, and the battle formation composed of Qin soldiers was still not broken.

As time passed, Philip IV and subsequent generations were all at a loss.

"It has been two months since the West conquered Rome, and nearly 200 million people have died, while the Qin soldiers have only killed and injured more than 2 people. Oh my God, this ratio is too terrifying, isn't it?"

Mr. Wang stared at the live broadcast room with wide eyes, his face full of disbelief.

Not just him, everyone was stunned.

All this seems a little different from what I imagined.

Everyone believed that after the Macedonian Empire broke through the city wall, it would beat the fallen dog and easily kill the Qin soldiers, leaving Ying Tian with no ability to fight back.

Think that Yingtian's barrier is the city wall.

Only then did he realize that he had ignored a cruel fact, which was the fighting power of the Lao Qin people.

After leaving the city wall, the combat effectiveness has not weakened, and even without the constraints of the city wall, the combat effectiveness is even stronger.

"Hey, you are too useless, aren't you? I have given up the city wall to you, and you can't even attack it?"

Ying Tian sat in the palace, holding the Roman princess in his arms, and said frivolously.

The nearest soldier, who was only a few hundred meters away, was looking at Ying Tian angrily. His heart was filled with anger, but there was nothing he could do except anger.

A few hundred meters seemed very close, but it was like a ravine blocking the distance between him and Ying Tian.

It’s so hard to move past the past.

Wang Li squinted his eyes slightly, silently calculating the losses of both sides in this battle. After realizing that he could still hold on, he finally let out a long sigh.

In the distance, Philip IV hesitated, not knowing whether to continue the attack.

Every half an hour, 7000 people died. Such a huge number frightened him.

"You can't retreat, you absolutely can't retreat. Even if you die, you must kill Ying Tian. You must not let him live." The traveler from Odria stood up and said fiercely.

Not just him, everyone present was angry.

So many people died at the hands of Ying Tian. If Ying Tian cannot be killed, it will really be wasted.

As long as he can kill Ying Tian, ​​his wish will be fulfilled.

What's more, what can we do if we escape? This battle has already strained our muscles and bones. Once Ying Tian recovers, it will be easy to kill them. After all, it is impossible to escape death. It is better to fight than wait for death.

"Then work hard."

Philip IV looked at the more than 170 million soldiers left around him, his face uncertain, and after a few seconds, he gritted his teeth.

call!
He took a deep breath, raised the battle flag, and shouted loudly:
"Everyone, work hard, otherwise we will all die here!"

The soldiers gave a wry smile, roared angrily, and charged at Ying Tian like one after another. They were not fools, and they knew that the matter had come to this, and only by killing Ying Tian could things turn around.

"Humph!"

Wang Li snorted coldly, held the battle flag in both hands, and quickly changed the formation.

Five thousand shield soldiers blocked the outermost perimeter, black armored soldiers were responsible for stabbing inside, archers were responsible for harvesting in the middle, and medical soldiers were passing through the crowd, responsible for rescuing the dead and tending the wounded.

The team of more than 2 people was well organized and not chaotic at all.

boom!
Every minute and every second, someone falls.

With each passing minute, Philip IV's face grew uglier.

Just like that, after fighting every few days and persisting for half a month, he completely collapsed.

Today, the Macedonian Alliance only has one million troops left, but Ying Tian and others are different. They have 5000 troops, but there are still 2 left!
