Roman Slave Owner

Chapter 110 Turtle-shaped machinery

“Unexpectedly, we would meet in this situation.”

Scipio said lightly.

Li Wei looked left and right, could it be that the two old guys have **** with each other.

“Scipio, how are you thinking about it. As long as you are willing to join me, I can guarantee that your family is safe.”

Sura said.

“What if not?”

Scipio said.

“Your whole family will become public enemies of the country, and those nobles killed by Mallor and Qinna will be the end of your family.”

Sura said with a sneer.

Although he was mentally prepared, Li Wei still felt like a cold wind was blowing when Sura said such words.

The reason why he joined Sura in the first place was to prevent this from happening to him.

Hearing this, Scipio could hardly believe his ears.

He immediately furiously said: “What are you talking about! You can’t do this! Our Scipio family made great achievements for Rome! We defeated Hannibal! Destroyed Carthage! If you do this! You will surely suffer from Rome! The people’s curse!”

“Mallor can! Of course I can too!”

Sura smiled faintly.

The language is simple, but it is full of domineering.

Scipio flushed with anger, he knew Sura would do it!

Mallor is a lunatic, butcher!

Sura is also a lunatic, butcher!

“Listen to my advice, give up, you have no chance of winning.”

Metelus said at this time, “As long as you join us, I promise with family honor that your whole family will be safe and sound.”

“I am a descendant of the Scipio family, how can I surrender without a fight!”

Scipio said with red eyes.

“This is not called surrender without a fight, this is a wise choice.”

Sura said patiently.

“Li Wei, tell me why you chose Sura.”

Scipio thought about it and wanted to ask.

Li Wei felt a bit inexplicable, how the flames of war had been burned to his head.

“Because…because Sura will win.”

Li Wei thought for a while and said.

Everyone else looked at Li Wei with weird faces. You have so much confidence in Sura.

“Did you have contact with Sura when we met?”

This sentence has been held in Scipio’s heart for several months, and now I can finally ask it face-to-face.

“No, I really didn’t know Sura back then, and I didn’t have any contact with him.”

Li Wei said.

“He didn’t lie.”

Sura said.

Seeing that both of them denied it, Scipio let go of his unwillingness. They had no need to lie, which proved that at least he did not misunderstand the wrong person.

“What do you think I should do?”

Scipio asked.

“Hurry up and surrender.”

Li Wei rolled his eyes, he was not interested in comforting Scipio.

The corners of Sula’s mouth raised slightly, which is a very good point.

“I also ask you a word, when Guta led people to attack my manor, did you and Nias attack him and try to get the sugar formula for nothing.”

Li Wei also asked about the spikes that had been hidden in his heart.

Scipio’s eyes flickered, and he quickly denied: “There is no such thing. I did my best in the first place.”

“Don’t lie to me here, I don’t believe what those soldiers dare to take you two elders, let alone you are still the head of the Scipio family.”

Li Wei said with a sneer.

Sura and Metlus’s complexion changed slightly. They only faintly heard that Li Wei and Scipio had a disagreement. It turned out to be because of this.

I just didn’t expect that Scipio, who was shining and majestic on the surface, turned out to be such a person.

“Li Wei, you believe me…”

“The ancient tower has already told me everything.”

“He lied to you…”

Scipio still wants to explain, but Li Wei has no interest in playing this kind of game with him.

“To tell you the truth, you are defeated. You can look back and see what your soldiers are doing.”

Li Wei said.

Scipia looked back and found that a large number of soldiers had left the army, bypassing them and ran towards Sura’s army.

“How is this going?”

Scipio was shocked.

“Your subordinates have betrayed you a long time ago. As a descendant of Scipio, it is really a shame for your family to fall into the betrayal of the soldiers.”

Li Wei said with contempt.

Scipio couldn’t help but feel dizzy, it’s over! Completely finished!

“General, shall we go back first.”

At this time, a guard from Scipio said.

“Do you think it will be useful to go back? Only your manpower is defeated. We have built 50 powerful trebuchets. If you are stubborn, there is only a dead end waiting for you.”

Li Wei said.

“Levy didn’t lie, your barracks can’t stop this trebuchet at all. Surrender!”

Metelus said with a sigh.

Scipio knew very well about Mettrus. He said that it was 80% true, but it made him even more puzzled about what kind of trebuchet had such power.

“Can you let me go back and think about it.”

Scipio said, his heart was in a mess at this time, and he didn’t know what to do for a long time.

“No problem, I will give you one day, and the next day we will attack the city.”

Sura said.

“Ok.”

Scipio said bitterly Only after Scipio returned to the camp did he know what had happened. Katilin took his army to Sura, and even another army followed someone. Going away, this Scipio was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

Nasika kept yelling at Cattilin, scolding him for his shamelessness and ungratefulness.

But after learning what Sura said, he lost his voice.

How could he treat the Scipio family, the hero of the country, so cruelly!

Scipia couldn’t sleep at night. He wanted to be strong at the beginning, but now there are only three legions with a little more people. How could this be Sura’s opponent, what should he do?

The next day, a centurion came in.

“Report to the consul, Sura dispatched heavy troops to besiege the barracks. They dispatched a tortoise-shaped machine to dig trenches.”

Hearing this, both Scipio and Nasika’s complexion changed drastically.

“Go, let’s go take a look.”

Scipia and Nasika hurriedly walked up the city wall, and found that the flags were fluttering in the distance. The soldiers of the two legions lined up in a neat phalanx, quietly looking at the barracks in the distance.

Some soldiers pushed a tortoise-shaped mechanical vehicle to the point of a hundred Roman steps on the city wall and stopped.

The tortoise-shaped machine car is not really like a tortoise. It is a machine developed by the ancient Greeks specifically for digging trenches. In addition, it can also stand on top of it and climb the city wall.

It is mainly composed of oak wood, which is like a mobile house with an opening on the upper side. There are fine fences around the roof slab, and light ballistas are installed on the small beams to attack the city wall.

The whole machine is filled with two layers of thick-skinned seaweed or straw soaked in vinegar, which can counter the shelling or fire attack.
