Capital Datang

"Boom, boom, boom~" There was an overwhelming roar of artillery. Although the city wall of Caesar Augusta was strong, after several days of uninterrupted bombardment and blasting, it was finally overwhelmed. The Roman army swarmed in, shouting slogans to overthrow the Gothic rule, while quickly attacking the city lord's palace in Caesar Augusta, and the original Romans in the city also began to attack the Visigoth army. The rule of this military city is coming to an end. ¤ Literature Bar: wxba¤

When Wang Fangyi rushed into the city of Caesar Augusta with [-] cavalry, the Visigoths in the city finally couldn't resist, and they were either killed or surrendered in the end, but the result of surrender was often stoned by the Romans in the city. Or killed with wooden sticks, and even many Romans began to attack the mansions of some Visigoth nobles, killing the men, children and old people in them, and the Gothic women were dragged to the street and raped to death. Very miserable.

Caesar Augusta is located at the northeastern tip of the Iberian Peninsula. It originally belonged to the territory of the Roman Empire. Most of the residents here were the original Romans. However, after the Visigoths occupied here, they took the land of the local Romans Two-thirds were taken away, and half of the forest was to be removed. Others, such as slaves and tools, were all demanded from them. Although many people rose up to resist, they were brutally suppressed by the Visigothic army.

Usually the Visigoths ruled Caesar Augusta very harshly, especially some Visigoth nobles extorted violently from the Romans in the city. Countless rich Romans went bankrupt because of this, and even became beggars on the streets. The lives of other Romans were also very difficult, so the Romans had no other feelings for the Visigoths who ruled them except hatred.Therefore, it is not surprising to make such crazy revenge now.

For this kind of situation, Wang Fangyi has long been used to it.Not only Caesar Augusta, but also other Visigoth cities they attacked before. The local Romans almost all hated the Visigoths.The Visigoths were originally a very barbaric nation. They didn't know how to rule a country at all, and they blindly used military suppression at home. In addition to the influence of the Romans, the Visigoth nobles only pursued pleasure.Naturally, the money needed can only be exploited from the Romans. Fortunately, they can still maintain a relatively effective army, otherwise they would have been overthrown by the Romans long ago.Capital Datang 698

However, the families of those Gothic nobles were very rich. Based on this alone, Wang Fangyi couldn't let the Romans in the city continue to make trouble like this.Therefore, under his order, the army under him began to maintain order in the city. All those who participated in the burning, killing and looting were all driven back home. If they dared to resist the order, they could only make an example.

Under this harsh military order, the city of Caesar Augusta quickly restored its original order.The fire that had ignited in the city was extinguished, and the dead bodies were dragged outside the city to be burned or buried.At the same time, Wang Fangyi also sent someone to notify Li Ke and others who were supervising the battle in the rear to enter the city.

To the northeast of Caesar Augusta City is Toulouse, the capital of the Visigothic Kingdom, and there is no city in the middle.It can even be said that Caesar Augusta is the gateway to Toulouse, and occupying it here means that Toulouse is like a girl who has been stripped naked.Standing "naked" in front of Li Ke now, he can lead his troops to ravage the capital of the Visigoths at any time.

Since Li Ke gained a firm foothold in the southwestern coastal area of ​​the Iberian Peninsula.He soon discovered a situation, that is, the internal rule of the Visigothic Kingdom was not very stable. After all, the Visigoths belonged to the invaders. Compared with the original Romans in the area, the Visigoths were still a minority after all.Secondly, because the Visigoths lacked the corresponding cultural background, they didn't know how to rule at all, and they just blindly squeezed the Romans, which caused continuous domestic uprisings, and the Romans also hated the Visigoths very much.

This discovery made Li Ke ecstatic. After discussing with Cen Changqian, they decided to implement a relatively loose rule in the ruling area. Constance II and his wife are very good friends.

The loose rule made the Romans really feel the changes around them. Not only did their lives get better and better, but the Han people who ruled them were completely different from the Visigoths. Appearance, do everything according to the law and rules.This is ten thousand times stronger than the Visigoths. In the eyes of the Romans, the Visigoths are simply a group of barbaric destroyers. As for the laws and rules, they are simply a joke in the eyes of the Visigoths.

It is always very easy for civilized people to get along with civilized people, coupled with the alliance between Datang and Rome, and the personal relationship between Li Ke and Constans II and his wife, especially there are secret rumors , Queen Irina of Constans II fell in love with His Royal Highness Wu Wang who ruled them, and even the reason why His Highness Wu stayed in the Mediterranean Sea to establish a kingdom was mainly to be closer to Queen Irina .

Material satisfaction and spiritual closeness made Li Ke's rule in the Iberian Peninsula very stable in a short period of time, which was far beyond the reach of the Visigoths.Moreover, under the dissemination of people with good intentions, the Romans in the Visigothic ruled area also began to love Li Ke, secretly looking forward to the early arrival of this Roman ally all the time, and driving away the Visigoths who oppressed them .

Under such favorable circumstances, Li Ke naturally would not give up this good opportunity, so while recruiting the local Romans to form an army, he urged the follow-up materials to be sent from Datang, Daqi and Tianzhu. As soon as he arrived, Li Ke appointed Wang Fangyi as the general. From the 3 King Wu army brought by Da Qi, [-] people were separated, and there were also [-] local Roman troops to form a crusade team of [-] troops, and began to conquer Mexico. special kingdom.

The [-] King Wu army is all firearms troops, and it is also the core of the very large army. In the war with the Visigoths, Wang Fangyi often used firearms troops to disrupt the formation of the Visigoth army first, and then the Romans on the two wings The army swarmed up and attacked the opponent's formation.Generally speaking, very few Visigothic troops can block this kind of attack, and most of the Visigothic troops are under this kind of impact, and those who are killed are bleeding like rivers.

Of course, there are also a small number of elite troops who can withstand the bombardment of firearms, and then face the Romans who have just been trained, and they can also fight with the opponent. At this time, Wang Fangyi will send [-] cavalry carefully prepared by himself , This cavalry is all composed of prairie barbarians who are proficient in riding. Dismounted are musketeers, and mounted are cavalry. Under the impact of this kind of cavalry, no matter how elite the Visigoth army is, it can only be slaughtered.

We must know that the main reason why the Visigoths moved westward was that they were hunted down by the Huns, especially in the Arati era, the Germanic people in Europe lived tremblingly under the shadow of the Huns.The Huns were originally nomadic peoples in the northern part of the Central Plains, and they can be regarded as a branch of the barbarians in the grassland. They are also very similar to the barbarian cavalry brought by Li Ke. Therefore, when the Visigoths faced the barbarian cavalry, they almost mistakenly thought that It was the Huns who came to kill again. The fear engraved in their bones made most of the Goths lose the courage to resist.

It was also the superiority in military strength and the secret cooperation of the Romans that made Li Ke's expedition very smooth. In just one year, he occupied most of the Iberian Peninsula. And pushed the front to the south bank of the Ebro River at the northeast end of the peninsula.

This time, Wang Fangyi took the lead and conquered the important military town of Caesar Augusta. He had pulled out the last military important town on the south bank of the Ebro River, and his troops were approaching the Visigothic capital Toulouse.It can be said that the Visigothic Kingdom has been "forced" to a dead end by Li Ke. Either organize the remaining forces to fight Li Ke to the death, or pack up their things and go back to their hometown.

After receiving the news, Li Ke in the rear was also very excited and led his people to the city of Caesars Augusta.The city with a very awkward name is surrounded by semi-desert plains, but this place is moistened by the water source melted from the ice and snow on the mountains, and it becomes a rare oasis. The entire city is built on this oasis, so it looks very beautiful. At the same time, the business here is prosperous, and the geographical location is also very important. Therefore, whether the Romans or the Visigoths ruled here, they stationed a large number of troops in the city.

Although the city of Caesar Augusta is important, Li Ke's conquest targets are not limited to this place. After Wang Fangyi led the army to rest in the city for a few days, he immediately attacked again, first going down the Ebro River, and then suddenly turned around. Finally, with the cooperation of the navy, they took Barcelona, ​​the largest port city of the Visigoths in the Mediterranean Sea.

Finally, the army marched north, and after a month, it arrived at the mountain pass of the Pyrenees, where it encountered the Visigoths again. This mountain pass opened up the passage to the Gaul region of Europe. Of course, most of the casualties were Romans, and the [-] King Wu army at the core did not suffer many casualties.

The Pyrenees Mountains are the natural boundary between the Iberian Peninsula and the European continent. The entire mountain range can be divided into three sections. Among them, the western section near the Atlantic Ocean and the eastern section near the Mediterranean Sea are not very high in altitude, and there are also mountain passes. Passed, but the middle section was impassable.Now the mountain pass in the eastern section has been controlled by Li Ke, but the mountain pass in the western section is controlled by the sturdy Basques. The Visigoths failed to conquer this ancient nation before, and now it is even more impossible to enter the Iberian Peninsula from there. .

In other words, after capturing the mountain pass in the eastern section of the Pyrenees, Li Ke has blocked the way for the Visigoths to enter the Iberian Peninsula. Although there are still many cities in the entire peninsula in the hands of the Visigoths , but has lost contact with the rear, like a rootless duckweed, it is only a matter of time before Li Ke conquers it.Capital Datang 698
