Roman Slave Owner

Chapter 297: typical

   After the trebuchet was ready, a large number of stones immediately flew up high, and then slammed heavily on the walls of Palestine.

  Though the Jewish army had been mentally prepared for a long time, they were still taken aback by the tremendous power of the trebuchet.

   The bricks and stones on the city wall were smashed to pieces, but Jerusalem is a real strong city, the wall is 6.5 meters thick.

   It is never easy to smash the city wall, but it does not matter, Li Wei has enough time.

  After the bombardment of the whole morning, the wall began to collapse. The Jewish soldiers on the wall screamed, but there was nothing to do.

   The trebuchet continued to attack, and it kept making a gap of more than 20 meters.

   "You can attack now."

   Li Wei said to John.

   A trace of resentment flashed in John's eyes. Although it was well hidden, it was still discovered by Li Wei.

"I see."

   John said.

   After speaking, he left here, and it didn't take long for the Pharisees to attack the gap.

   The two sides fought fiercely, and one Jew after another fell to the ground.

   Some Jews wanted to escape, but under the supervision of the supervising team, they finally had to return to the battlefield.

   After half a day, the corpses under the city wall were almost piled up into a mountain, but they still haven't taken it down.

   The two sides were almost blushing. The Jews on the wall were fighting to protect the holy city. This made Li Wei very dissatisfied. The Pharisees' combat effectiveness was too poor.

   "Order the Thracians to attack."

   Li Wei said.

   After two years of fighting and training, the Thracians have become an elite division under him, and their combat effectiveness is still higher than that of the Galacians.

   The bugle sounded, and the legionary flag waved.

   After receiving the order, the Thracian troops immediately lined up and marched forward, following a group of Jews and attacking the city wall.

   Seeing this, John breathed a sigh of relief, now they can sacrifice some people.

   The Thracians successfully attacked the city wall, erected their shields, and fought against the Jews.

   "Offense! Attack me!"

   Aetius said loudly.

   Compared with those Pharisees who have not received much training, these thracians who have experienced many battles are much stronger.

   As soon as they contacted, the Jews were beaten to defeat.

   They wielded curvy daggers, skillfully harvested the lives of those Jewish soldiers, and advanced steadily.

   Aristobulus sent one Jewish army after another, but they were not their opponents at all.

   More and more Thracians entered Jerusalem. They not only stepped on the wall, but also entered the city.

   "It's over! It's over completely!"

   Aristobulus said in horror, this time the general situation is gone, I did not expect the Roman army to be so powerful.

   At last he stopped hesitating and led the army to the upper city.

   "Order everyone in Galicia to enter the city."

   Li Wei said.

   The bugle sounded, and the Galacians, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately swarmed into the city.

   After discovering that there were no traps, the Roman legions entered the city.

   At this time, some Galacians and Thracians had already begun the robbery, and even some Pharisees had joined them.

   This makes Li Wei very dissatisfied. He doesn't like it very much.

   But this is the custom of the Romans, the Romans fight for money.

  Many Romans voluntarily overdue service, not because of patriotism, but because they can grab more money in this way.

   If he stops them, even if he is the head of the legion, he will be opposed by the whole army.

   can only sit back and watch all this happen in the end.

   Aristobulus, escorted by several guards, ran towards the Temple Mount in horror. He was surprised and angry when he saw the city sinking in blood and fire.

   He knew that the second wall would definitely not be able to hold, they could only have to withdraw to the temple.

   "Go down, destroy all the bridges connecting the upper city and the acropolis, and retreat to the defense city."

   Aristobulus said loudly.

   "Yes, Your Majesty."

   said a guard.

   Soon they abandoned the outer city, and then destroyed all the bridges leading to the acropolis, and a large number of Jews retreated to the temple.

   Aristobulis and some Jews kept praying in the temple.

   "Great Lord, please save your people, the devil is attacking us."

   "Please cast down your anger and destroy these evil heretics."

   "……"

  Some Jews prayed very piously that in history, Jews have not never lost their country.

   They were destroyed by the Assyrian Empire and by the New Babylonian Empire. Are they going to experience this terrible experience again today?

   At this time, the Roman army was in trouble because they discovered that there were a lot of tunnels in Jerusalem.

   Many Jews hid in the tunnel, including some Jewish soldiers.

  Threacians and Galacians rushed in, but they were killed by Jews who were familiar with the terrain.

   Li Wei quickly called John.

   "What's the matter with your tunnel? How come there are so many tunnels."

   Li Wei asked.

   "Jerusalem has always had a large number of tunnels, and they communicated with each other mainly to avoid war."

   John said.

   Li Wei didn't expect that he would still encounter a tunnel war. It was a weird experience.

   In fact, it is not only ancient, but even in modern times, there are still a lot of tunnels in Jerusalem.

   "You send someone to tell those who are hiding in the tunnel, if they come out, I can forgive their lives. If they don't come out, then they are dead, and I swear in the name of the true god."

   Li Wei said.

   John knows that he is a prophet of the holy religion, and a prophet swears in the name of the **** he believes in, then he will definitely obey it.

   "Okay, I will tell them ~lightnovelpub.net~ John said.

   Soon they organized some people to go to the tunnel to shout. Some Jews obeyed his words and walked out of the tunnel.

   Li Wei asked them to take them down. They could indeed survive, but according to the rules of the Romans, they would be sold as slaves.

   found that there were still a large number of people hiding in the tunnel, which made Li Wei very dissatisfied.

   "John, let your people go to the tunnel and catch them out."

   Li Wei said.

   Hearing this, John looked bitter.

   The terrain is complicated in the tunnel, and it is not easy to catch those Jews.

   "I understand that you are not opponents of the Jewish army, but if you are not even opponents of these broken soldiers and civilians, then don't blame me for being rude."

   Li Wei said.

"I see."

   John said helplessly.

   Li Wei sneered and asked you to curse me. This is the price you need to pay.

   After receiving the order, the Pharisees had to enter the tunnel to capture the remaining Jews.

   Li Wei looked at the temple in the distance. This temple was actually a rebuilt temple.

  The first temple was built on Mount Moriah by King David's order of his son Solomon. The temple is known as God's residence in the world.
