Before AD [Babylonian Favorites]

The horse adjusted its pace slightly, and my hot breath condensed into a white mist in the air.Tens of thousands of troops are waiting in full battle, but at this moment, there is silence.I felt as unreal as in a dream, because what was about to happen next was no longer a 3D blockbuster, but a real war. Although I knew that Alexander would not lose, my heart was still pounding with tension.

The sun was rising, and after a while, Hephaistion's figure suddenly appeared from the front. Against the light, he could vaguely see the cloak behind him fluttering up and down, and the hair that hadn't been tidied up in time fell out along his forehead.

"It has been investigated and there is no ambush, but the city gate is locked and there are a large number of defenders standing guard on the city wall." Hephaestion said immediately before standing still. He looked up at Alexander and added, "They have already Prepare to defend the city."

Alexander nodded, not surprised: "Very good! According to your opinion, where is their weakest part?"

Hephaestion pondered for a while, and said, "There is a city wall in the northeast that was recently repaired, and the junction between the old and the new is not very strong."

There was an unsurprising smile on Alexander's face.

"Did you hear that, Antigonus! Lead your troops to follow Hephaestion's scouts there, and I want you to focus your firepower on that place! By the way, the ladder that was built overnight last night should come in handy! Luxin Marcus, listen to my order and lead the infantry to disperse along the city wall, surround Gaza in an all-round way, set up ladders everywhere, and set off immediately!"

Antigonus and Luxin Marcus went out to lead the order, and soon led two groups of people to march towards Gaza city.

Seeing that nearly half of the soldiers had already set off, many people behind them began to move around.The horse neighed, conflicts collided, and someone shouted restlessly: "Your Majesty Alexander, please allow us to go to the battlefield!"

"Yes! Your Majesty, I want to be a hero too!"

"Why don't we all rush over!"

Alexander raised his hand unhurriedly: "The rest of you, follow me!"

After saying that, he flicked the rein, the bull head raised its hooves high, jumped out of the troops, drew a graceful arc in mid-air, and then fell to the front all at once.

"His Majesty!"

"Alexander!"

Hephaestion and I and others exclaimed at the same time, but Alexander looked back with a smile like a little boy: "Dear warriors, come with me. I promise, after today, we will all be heroes! "

I was a little dazed.At this time, Alexander seemed very happy, no, maybe he could be called the happiest.It seemed that there was nothing in this world that could arouse his inner joy and passion more than this one.He is the king in this vast world, he is so sure and sure, as if victory and golden armor belong only to him.

"Alexander!" I heard Hephaestion yell urgently, and flew past me.

The wind whizzed around and the horseshoes were chaotic, so I quickly urged the horses to run forward.The armor on his body is so thick that it is very inconvenient to move even on horseback.In order to follow Alexander out to see, I changed into ordinary cavalry equipment, but I couldn’t handle the round shield and spear, so I had to go with a sword, which was the lightest one, and I was very tired from the journey.I've always considered myself to be physically strong, but I can't handle these guys like iron.Seeing Alexander's shining golden figure gradually submerged among the generals, I was singled out and fell into the infantry pile, only to be in a hurry.

In the infantry camp, no one was riding a horse except for the messengers. I walked around under the strange eyes of many people, which was very embarrassing.

Suddenly someone poked my calf with a shield, and a rough voice came from diagonally below: "Little bird, are you new here?"

I glanced at him and didn't make a sound. Fortunately, the helmet covered most of my face, so I couldn't see my embarrassment.

"The most annoying thing is recruits like you. You take it for granted when you get in the way!" The man showed an impatient expression on his ferocious face, and he stretched out his hand to push the horse under me, and the horse staggered unexpectedly. After taking a few steps, I hugged the horse's neck in embarrassment, and almost fell off the horse.

There was laughter all around.

Bah, what a fucking shame!I hurriedly squeezed towards the periphery of the infantry camp, feeling a little annoyed at Alexander.Obviously he was the one who asked me to come, but he completely forgot about me as soon as I got here!I'm such an idiot, this is a battlefield, I don't even think about what to do, if he says come, I'll come, my bones are eaten by dogs!

woo-

Trumpets sounded from all directions without warning.

"Siege! Siege! Siege!"

Immediately, deafening roars echoed between the sky and the earth, and the ground below seemed to be trembling. Thousands of soldiers shouted, mixed with the various slogans of the herald.

"A group of infantry obey the order and attack the city from the east! Attack the city from the east!"

"Three teams of javeliners ready!"

"Six teams of archers are ready!"

"Ten teams of slingers are in place!"

Countless voices gathered together, stepping on the drum beat like a sharp arrow off the string, breaking through the wind.

The huge and solid city gate is getting closer and closer to me, and I can't help walking towards it surrounded by crowds.Enduring the glare of the sun and looking up, I finally saw rows of enemy archers standing on the city wall, and they were aiming down.

The towering cloud ladder has been built on the city wall, and the infantrymen are holding on below, looking up at the enemy with eyes.

I looked around for a week, and was so startled that my jaw almost dropped!

There is no one in front!

I became the leader in a daze, the kind of meat shield!

"Guys! The general is coming to personally attack the city!" Someone ignorant pointed at me and shouted.

"General! General!"

"Iris bless you! General! Please go forward bravely! We follow you!"

Many infantrymen behind me and soldiers holding ladders on the edge of the city wall in front waved vigorously at me.

War is imminent.

I froze there wanting to cry but without tears. I was just here to watch, but how did it become like this now?Without a shield, if I hold on, I won't be shot into a hedgehog by the rain of arrows?But once I escape, it will definitely affect the morale of the army. If I am caught by these wolf-like soldiers, I will inevitably be beaten up.

How can I do?The key is where did Alexander and the others go?

Looking around again, there are still only siege troops everywhere.

Gradually, people on the city wall noticed that I was an outstanding cavalry, so they pointed their arrows at me one after another.

This is definitely a veritable target of criticism.

The horse seemed to sense the menacing murderous intent, and paced back and forth uneasily.

My back started to break out in cold sweat.

calm!Bagoas!calm!

"Start the siege!"

My mind was still blank when I heard this command from far behind.

Countless soldiers rushed forward roaring like a flood from a floodgate.At this moment, I finally saw the rain of arrows all over the sky.Countless tiny arrows were flying in the air, it was really like a downpour.

Ma'er, your wealth and life depend on you!

Subconsciously, I waved the rein vigorously, imitating Alexander's action just now, jumped up, slid an arc high in the air, and slanted towards the city wall.Close to the wall is a blind spot, the rain of arrows cannot be shot, it can only fall to the outer area.

Since I can't retreat, I have no choice but to bite the bullet and move forward!

The sound of arrows rustled, and the people who heard it were thrilled, and there were screams everywhere.I gritted my teeth and quickly rolled down from the horse. The loess was flying on the ground, and I didn't care about the tangy dust and grabbed a ladder.It was obviously an extremely dangerous moment, but Ruyi seemed to have the upper hand at this moment.I put my hands on the ladder and looked around, and the heads of people behind me filled the whole field. Many people eagerly looked up to the city wall, and it seemed that nothing could block their way.

Some people fell, but more people walked down with their shields against the rain of arrows.

The biting wind cut my cheek like a knife.But looking at them, I suddenly realized Alexander's dream.It was a kind of hearty pleasure, the conquest is so simple, walk through a piece of land, it is yours.But there are always some places that have not yet been passed, so it becomes a hope brought by the unknown, because of the unknown, because it has never been reached, so dreams and hopes will never dry up.

Thinking of this, my heart was half full of pride and half broken, I pulled out the long sword from my waist, raised it towards the sky, and roared: "Warriors, go! For dreams and hopes, go!"

"Come on—"

Pairs of glowing eyes looked at me, and vibrant voices responded to me.

It was another burst of arrow rain, but this time it turned from bottom to top.The enemy guards on the city wall also wailed and screamed, and several people even fell from above and fell to the ground with blood and blood.However, Alexander did not give them any chance to breathe. Just after the rain of arrows, the enemy archers in the city changed a group, followed by a rain of even bigger javelins. Although the long and sharp javelins were not as good as There are many bows and arrows, but the attack is more than several times stronger.

Blood flowed down the city wall and landed on the back of my hand.

While carefully avoiding the bow and arrow, I climbed up the ladder.

The giant boulder also flew into the air and hit the city wall. People kept rolling down and screaming in pain.The momentum under the city was getting stronger and stronger. I climbed halfway when I heard someone shouting loudly: "Your Majesty Alexander! Look! It's His Majesty Alexander!"

"His Majesty Alexander has come out in person!"

"God bless Your Majesty! God bless Macedonia!"

I couldn't help but look back.

"what!"

Just when I looked away a little this time, my right hand holding the ladder was caught off guard and hit hard by a huge stone.

The severe pain made me let go of my hand suddenly, and I fell off the ladder all at once.

The wind was galloping in my ears, and a fragment of memory flashed across my mind.

It was midsummer at that time, and Alexander walked quickly in the long corridor of the Persian palace.He was wearing a snow-white Greek robe, and his blond hair fell loosely across his forehead.

The wind was blowing gently, he suddenly turned around and rubbed my hair.

Bagoas, I have to protect you.

He looked at me so seriously and said.
