I am the son of Cao thief, start the awakening of the tyrant system

Chapter 783 Landing on the Beach, Suppressing Firepower

Rome has grown from a small town to become a Mediterranean hegemon across Asia, Europe and Africa for thousands of years.

However, at this moment, this ancient and huge empire is facing the biggest crisis since the founding of the country.

On the sea level outside the port of Rome, there are majestic warships that cover the sky and block out the sun, and the horizon can't be seen at a glance.

And the flag of the giant dragon with its teeth and claws hoisted on the warship proves that this navy comes from the distant oriental civilization, the Dragon Empire!

Although Gannis and the others looked normal, their flustered eyes showed that their hearts were not as calm as they appeared on the surface!
No one expected that the Dragon Kingdom Navy from the east, their warships would be so huge and their momentum so amazing!
No wonder the Imperial Navy led by Comasson will be wiped out!
Gannis suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and shouted in a deep voice,
"The order continues, no one is allowed to act without authorization, and everything is waiting for my order!"

The Romans held a military meeting in advance, and Gannis and Comasone and others had conceived the progress of the battle to defend the city of Rome.

In their view, the entrances to Roman ports were blocked by ships.

The Easterners either used small boats to transport their troops to the road, or cleaned up the wreckage of the sunken ships, and then sailed into the port.

Gannis felt that the Easterners would choose the former. After all, cleaning up the wreckage was too time-consuming.

The Romans can take the opportunity to fight out of the city and harass them.

Sure enough, as Gannis expected, countless small boats were released from the Dragon Kingdom warships.

The people of Longguo quickly slid towards the shore in a small boat.

"Let Planck go out of the city, be prepared to deal with it, and tell him that the people of the Dragon Kingdom cannot be allowed to land successfully!"

Gannis said in a low voice.

The orderly led the way.

After a while, the city gate facing the port slowly opened, and Planck led the Romans to the shore in a hurry.

"Line up! Line up!"

Plank ordered loudly.

The well-trained Romans quickly formed a formation on the shore, waiting for the arrival of the Dragon Kingdom people.

I saw densely packed small boats paddling towards the shore on the sea directly ahead!

Just as the Romans were ready to fight against the people of Longguo, there was a muffled sound of cannons on the sea!
After being adjusted, the artillery on the Dragon Kingdom Navy warship began to roar!

"Bang bang bang!"

Accompanied by the roar of the giant cannon, countless shells drew a beautiful parabola in the air, and accurately hit the Romans on the shore!

How could the flesh-and-blood Romans resist the powerful artillery?
In the blink of an eye, the Romans on the shore suffered heavy casualties, and the formation was blown to pieces!

A bomb exploded beside Planck, but fortunately his guards threw him down in time, leaving only one life!
Looking at the troops around him who had suffered heavy casualties, Planck wanted to cry without tears.

The military power of the people of Longguo is so terrifying, how can we fight this battle?
Before the Romans recovered from the bombardment, the first small boat of the Longguo people had already docked on the shore.

Gan Ning is the vanguard this time!

In the matter of landing on the beach, one must be decisive and brave, and stand firm on the shore in time.

If it is counterattacked back, the attacker will easily suffer heavy casualties.

Therefore, Gan Ning took the initiative to invite Ying, vowing to win the beachhead for the Dragon Army!

I saw him holding a knife in one hand and a shield in the other, jumping out of the boat nimbly like a cheetah!

Gan Ning landed on the shore, without the slightest hesitation, he went to kill the Romans on the opposite side!
The rest of the Dragon Army soldiers followed closely behind him, covering his left and right wings.

The Mo Dao in Gan Ning's hand flew up and down, wherever it went, there was a bloody storm.

After a round of shelling and devastation, the Romans were originally low in morale and timid in their hearts, and when they encountered the murderous Gan Ning, they were naturally not opponents.

The beachhead was quickly captured by Gan Ning, and the Romans were forced to retreat.

Gannis on the city wall took all this into his eyes with a stern expression on his face.

He whispered to the soldiers beside him,
"Quick, use the ballista!"

The so-called ballista was developed by the Greeks. It uses the torsion generated by horsehair, leather rope or animal tendons as a power projection device, which can drive the crossbow arm to drive the bowstring to project projectiles, arrows or spears.

After the Romans conquered Greece, they pushed the ballista to its peak.

In order to deal with the people of the Dragon Kingdom and better defend the city of Rome, Gannis arranged thousands of ballistas on the city wall this time.

Following Gannis' order, the Romans on the city wall began to move.

Countless whistling sounds were heard, sharp spears and heavy stone bullets tore through the air, and shot at the Longguo people on the beach!

The soldiers of the Dragon Army who were landing were caught off guard, and lost a lot for a while.

Cao Mao on the warship frowned, pointed at the city wall of Rome, and said coldly,
"Give me the firepower to suppress them!"

"As ordered!"

Deng Ai quickly ordered the messengers to tell the soldiers on other warships to follow Cao Mao's orders through the semaphore.

Walls of the city of Rome.

Looking at the people of Longguo on the beach, under the attack of their own ballista, the offensive momentum was contained, Comasson laughed loudly,

"Haha, Mr. Gannis, if the people of Long Kingdom only have this level, let alone persist for four or five days, I am afraid that we will not need reinforcements at all, and we can still hold the city wall."

Even Gannis couldn't help a smile and let out a long sigh of relief.

Ever since they met the Easterners, they have been losing streak.

The little victory just now finally made them proud!
Just before the Romans were happy for a moment, the dragon warships on the sea began to roar again!
This time, it was the walls of Rome that were aimed at by the artillery.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

Numerous cannonballs dragged the white smoke, streaked across the air rapidly, and then landed heavily on the city wall.

"boom!"

A heavy lead bullet just hit a ballista on the city wall.

The ballista instantly fell apart, while the lead bullets continued to bounce and fell into the Roman soldiers.

Whenever the Romans were hit, they became a puddle of flesh on the spot.

Even if it is hit by a shell, it still lacks arms and legs!
The smiles on the faces of Gannis and the others froze immediately.

They never expected that the artillery of the people of Longguo had such a long range that they could directly bombard the city wall from the sea!
Before they could react, more shells roared in.

For a while, not only the Romans suffered heavy casualties, but even most of the catapults arranged on the city wall were destroyed!

Gannis, Komasong and the others did not dare to stay too long on the city wall, and fled down the stairs in a panic!

Seeing the mighty display of one's own artillery, the Longguo people on the beach shouted in unison!

With their morale boosted, they attacked even more fiercely. Under the leadership of Gan Ning, they easily defeated Planck's troops!
