Chapter 397 Britain

After a long voyage of the mighty fleet, Li Wei’s army finally arrived on the British Isles. Mobile https://

I saw high mountains and dense forests along the coast of Britain.

Seeing this, the Roman soldiers on board cheered.

This is Britain!

There really is Britain!

They discovered a new continent!

“It’s incredible! The true God’s words are indeed right!”

Lycias said excitedly.

At this time, he remembered what Li Wei had said before. Could it be that he could really discover the America that Li Wei said when he went west.

There was a faint smile on Li Wei’s face. This was the last year of his governor’s term, and it happened to be the end of his term with Britain.

The fleet continued to head north, where the scouts he sent found a harbor where it could land.

At this moment, a large number of people appeared on those mountains, and they looked at the fleet not far away with indifference.

“Under Mian, look there, someone.”

Lycias said.

Li Wei looked at the crowd and found that there was no cheering, but just looked at them quietly, just like looking at the prey.

“They seem to have known we are coming here.”

Li Wei frowned and said.

In fact, the legend of Britain has long been circulated among the Gauls. They have the same beliefs, the same red hair, and they all believe in the Druidic sect.

This proves that he is likely to have a connection. Is it possible that a Gaul disclosed the news of their expedition to the British?

What happened next proved his prediction. When the fleet went north, a large number of enemy cavalry was found on the shore, and those cavalry followed them all the way north.

Li Wei’s face immediately sank. These cavalry camers were not good, and it seemed that it was difficult to land.

Before long, they came to a bay.

There are white sandy beaches on the coast, and large woods in the distance.

“Under the crown, it is here. Last time we found that the water here is very deep, very suitable for landing.”

At this time a sailor said.

“I see, let our boat get close to the coast.”

Li Wei said.

Li Wei’s ship immediately flagged, and upon receiving the order, the huge fleet immediately sailed towards the coast.

At this time, he found that the cavalry had also come here. In order to preserve horsepower, they had dismounted their horses one after another.

Due to the proximity of the distance, he also found the Britons.

They have long red hair, dyed with unknown blue dye, and look like blue monsters.

In fact, the Britons are more barbarous than the Gauls. According to the “War of Gaul” written by Emperor Caesar, they learned to farm even though they used gold and silver.

However, their relationship between men and women is still in the primitive society, and the wives are owned by every 10 to 12 men, so that sometimes the phenomenon of father and son co-wives occurs.

Sometimes a woman gives birth to a child and does not know who the father is. Under normal circumstances, she will assume that he is the child of the first man she meets when she is a virgin.

Looking at the Britons with unknown purpose, Li Wei said decisively: “Order the boat to be put down and the soldiers are ready to land. If those people dare to stop, kill them immediately. Remember, don’t charge, and fight on the seashore.”

After receiving Li Wei’s order, the big ships immediately put down the small boats.

Some soldiers boarded these boats in heavy equipment, and then rowed the boat to the shore.

Seeing this, the British cavalry rioted.

Because the number of boats is too much, Li Wei’s fleet is more than 600, and there are a total of five or six hundred boats laid down.

Each small boat carries several soldiers, so that the number of troops that can be carried at one time is close to half a corps.

After seeing the boats approaching, the British cavalry roared excitedly.

It’s a pity that Li Wei couldn’t hear what they were talking about because it was too far away.

The sailors quickly slid the boat and leaned toward the shore.

Before they landed on the coast, the cavalry launched a charge. They came to the shore and fired at the Roman soldiers with bows and javelins.

“Fight back! Fight back!”

The soldier on the boat said loudly.

Some of them raised their shields to block the enemy’s bows and arrows.

Some Cretan archers immediately began to fight back.

Li Wei’s face is even more ugly, which shows that these people must have received some news, so they came here deliberately to snipe them.

A large amount of arrow rain fell on both sides. Due to the influence of the waves, the accuracy of the Cretan archers was greatly affected, and even some rowing sailors were also attacked.

But the boat quickly reached the shore, and a large number of Roman soldiers jumped off the boat and began to attack the British cavalry who were all blue.

The cavalry had already urged the horses to leave here. After leaving the shore, they immediately began to charge. The cavalry can only be lethal when they charge.

Then the two sides began a fierce fight. Due to the restrictions of the terrain, they easily rushed into the sea, and then the Roman soldiers rushed into the sea regardless of the danger to kill them.

Those Roman soldiers also gradually gathered, forming one Roman phalanx after another.

Seeing no advantage, the cavalry gradually retreated.

“Order the soldiers to land as soon as possible.”

Li Wei said.

“Yes, submissive.”

Lycias said.

A large number of infantry landed directly through small boats, and some craftsmen immediately built simple docks.

Sea ships approached these piers, transporting a large number of people and materials to the coast.

Before long, the cavalry sent by Li Wei found a large number of blue figures in the jungle not far from the coast.

The heated bugle sounded, and a large number of Roman soldiers began to form groups, forming one Roman legion after another.

Facing these Britons, Li Wei was full of confidence.

Because their iron weapons are very scarce, they don’t even have armor, and even iron serves as their currency.

How could such a backward nation be the opponent of the Roman army?

Those Britons came out of the jungle, they not only had a large number of cavalry, infantry, but also a large number of chariots.

When they came out of the jungle, Li Wei was also shocked by their number.

The number of their tanks is at least 500 or more, and the densely packed tanks line up at the forefront of their army, and they can’t see the end at a glance.

At this moment, a cavalry came out waving a white flag.

He walked up to the Roman army and said in Gaul: “Romans! We know where you are from! We know what your purpose is! Get out of here, or you will be our enemy.”

“Under the crown, what should we do?”

Lucias asked.

“First salute and then soldiers, send someone to call them, asking them whether they choose to surrender or die. If they refuse to surrender, then they will face war.”

Li Wei said.

“Yes, submissive.”

Soon a soldier proficient in Gaul came out and shouted: “British soldiers, standing in front of you is Saint Lucius Boss Levi Germanus. The Roman army led by Jerusalemus Armenianus Pontunus, he is the Pope of the Holy Religion, the spokesperson of the true God in the world, the conqueror of Germany, Jerusalem, Armenia and Pontus, and the greatest Roman general. ”

“By the order of the true god, he led an army to conquer the Quartet. Now the pope asks you whether you choose to surrender or war? If you surrender? Then you will enjoy the light of Roman civilization. If you refuse, then war will greet you. ”

Hearing this, the cavalry’s face changed drastically, and finally returned to his own formation.

Li Wei is not in a hurry, he will give them time to make a choice.

Before long, a horn sounded on the opposite side.

The British roared, and the chariots began to charge.

“I really can’t help myself.”

Li Wei sneered, “Order the army to prepare for battle.”

The energetic bugle sounded, and the flag waved.

Some artillerymen, crossbowmen, archers, grenadiers, etc. immediately stepped forward. They had already dug the artillery positions, and only needed to put the artillery on the top.

Those chariots rolled up the dust of Mantian and rushed towards them with a rumble.

A large number of British soldiers and cavalry, dyed blue and dressed in animal skins, followed closely behind them.

The enemy’s momentum was great, but the Roman soldiers were not worried at all, they were full of confidence in themselves.

Those tanks are getting closer and closer to them.

“ignition!”

A famous gunner said.

The artillery immediately ignited the fuze, and then the fuze burned quickly.

“boom!”

“boom!”

“…”

There was a rumble of cannons, and the artillery roared in anger.

A large number of lead pellets were sent out like a torrential rain, forming a dead space in front of them.

“what!”

“…”

All kinds of screams were heard from the tanks that were charging.

The horse was hit by the dense lead pellets and fell to the ground wailing. It slid for a long time before stopping. Even the enemies on the chariot were hit.

They were terrified by these terrible explosions, although they had heard such things from the Gauls.

But when they faced each other at close range for the first time, they were still frightened.

Those barbaric nations were not afraid of being exposed to gunpowder for the first time.

At this moment, ten thousand arrows were fired.

The crossbowmen and archers poured out the arrow rain to them, and a large amount of arrow rain fell on the terrified Britons.

“boom!”

“boom!”

“…”

Another burst of grenade explosions sounded, and the enemies who had been aggressive just now screamed in horror, and then fled back.

Li Wei was not surprised by this situation. He said to the bugler beside him: “The whole army pursues!”

The bugle sounded again, and the flag waved.

The Roman soldiers who received the order immediately launched a charge and began to pursue the enemy.

Because the Roman soldiers wore heavy armor, it was difficult to catch up with the enemy.

Fortunately, there were 600 cavalrymen, who quickly chased and killed the enemy, stabbing them to the ground if they only wanted to escape.

Unfamiliar with the terrain, Li Wei soon ordered the soldiers who pursued them to come back.

After counting the results, it was found that at least 6,000 people were killed and more than 5,000 people were captured.

So Li Weiming brought a man of very high status from the captives. This was a young man with long fiery red hair and dyed blue all over his body. Except for his head, he was from other places. The hair was shaved, and he was only about 20 years old, and looked like a ghost.

A soldier proficient in Gaul served as an interpreter.

“who are you?”

Li Wei asked.

“My name is Mendubragios, and I am the king of the Pontians of Drino.”

The young man said, still with undissipated fear in his eyes.

Li Wei was a little surprised. He didn’t expect to catch a king casually.

“How many people have you come this time, and who will take the lead. How many countries do you have here?”

“We came with more than 30,000 people this time, a coalition of several countries, led by Cassivilonius. There are many countries, including Chenni Mai, Segon-Guicians, and Ankalides. People from Sri Lanka, from Beblochi, from Kassi…”

Li Wei asked him a lot of questions, and Mendubrajius answered them one by one.

This gave him a certain understanding of the situation here. The coastal area of ​​Britain is called Kennim, where many nations and countries live.

These countries are dominated by Celtics, and they fight each other endlessly.

In fact, these countries are still the most civilized areas in Britain. For example, some areas in the north are far less civilized than them.

What Li Wei likes very much is that there is a wealth of gold and silver here, as long as he strikes Britain, then he can make a fortune.

“By the way, how did you get the news that we are coming?”

Li Wei asked.

“It was the Morini people on the opposite side who sent people to tell us that they said you eliminated the Druids of Gaul. Our priests were very angry when they learned that they were all demons. They organized several of our countries. Get up and let us resist you.”

Mendubrajus said, “The other Morini said that you have terrible god-given weapons. We didn’t believe it, but we didn’t expect what he said was true.”

What an untrustworthy Gaul!

Li Wei thought, it’s time to end the existence of Morini.

“So are you willing to surrender to Rome?”

Li Wei asked.

“I…I do.”

Mendubrajus said hesitantly.

“Wise choice.”

Li Wei smiled and said Don’t worry, we Romans will not treat you badly. I will ask someone to give you a separate tent for a while, and you will be treated well. ”

“Thank you Mianxia.”

Mendobragius said.

He asked him a few more words before letting Mendubrajius leave, and then Li Wei sighed long.

Although Rome is not friendly to these natives, looks inferior, and allows them to pay taxes, it is much better than Germanic.

The Romanesque conquest only required some money, and did not criticize the original natives too much, on the contrary, it brought them civilization.

The Germanic conquest was a genocidal type of conquest. The standard reserved land did not leave any people. It was the Germanic conquest. The Celts in Gaul almost disappeared, leaving only Brittany. people.

The Celtics in southern Britain are gone, and there are some Celtics in Scotland, Ireland and Wales.

And they conquered the Americas in this way, and occupied North America by mass murdering local residents.

At this time, his mood was quite contradictory, how he would treat the British and Germans in the future.
