They cried for help everywhere, but no one could save them.

Wu Fa was stunned!

Taiti was stunned!

Cimberius was stunned!

The Angulivarei who had just rushed forward immediately retreated in fear, and finally deserted in a hurry.

This is really terrible. They can die in battle, but they don't want to die in such a miserable way.

Levi climbed onto the city wall and looked at the terrifying scene below the city wall. It seemed that the oil was more useful than expected. Maybe the Arabs should be allowed to transport more.

"We won."

Lysias said excitedly.

The enemy's casualties in this war were countless, and enemy corpses were everywhere under the city wall.

On the contrary, their losses were minimal, estimated to be less than one-tenth of the enemy's losses.

Levi made the sign of the cross with pity on his face, "May the true God forgive these lost lambs!"

Everyone looked at Li Wei with admiration. He was truly worthy of being crowned the Pope. He was not arrogant in victory or discouraged in defeat, and he was always so kind.

"We should have their prisoners in our hands. Send a prisoner to tell them that I allow them to collect the remains of these soldiers. Their heroic actions should be commended."

Levi said.

"As commanded, Your Majesty."

Lysias said.

***

At this time, Wulfa was caught in a dilemma. The sudden incendiary bomb made all the Germans extremely frightened. They had never thought that there was such a terrifying weapon in the world, and even Wulfa had no desire to attack.

"What should we do? Continue the attack?"

Cimberius said.

He was probably the only one who dared to say such words now. Not long after he said his impassioned words in the morning, he was beaten by the enemy and no longer had the courage to attack.

Wu Fa had a gloomy face and said nothing. The enemy's weapon was so powerful. Could it be that it was really a weapon given by the gods.

At this moment, a soldier ran over.

"Report to the general that one of our prisoners was released by the Romans. He said that the Romans had something for him to bring to you."

"Bring him here."

Wu Fa thought for a while and said.

Soon a big Germanic man covered in blood was brought in. He hung his head with a look of shame on his face.

"Which tribe are you from? Who asked you to send me a message?"

Wu Fa asked coldly.

"I am an Anglian, and a Roman named Lysias asked me to send a message to His Majesty. He said that Livy allowed us to send people to collect the bodies of the people who died in the battle. This is a commendation for their heroic actions."

said the burly Anglo man.

Wu Fa's eyes changed. It turned out to be Li Wei. He would definitely laugh at his failure.

The expressions of the other German generals changed slightly. The Romans said nicely, but in fact they just wanted them to clean up the corpses under the city walls.

Some of these corpses had been piled up close to the height of the city wall, which was very detrimental to the Romans.

"Your Majesty, please agree to their request.

Allow us to send people to collect the corpses of our clansmen. "

At this time, the Anglo General Teti said.

Several more generals stood up. These were the tribal generals who had attacked the city this morning.

They suffered heavy casualties in today's siege, and of course they hope to bring back the bodies of their own people.

Wulfa looked at these German generals gloomily. Don't they know what it means to clean up these corpses?

"I understand what you are thinking, but are you going to just give up?"

Wulfa said angrily, "Our army of 400,000 was blocked by an earth wall. You were defeated by the Romans willingly, and then went back in despair."

The generals remained silent, and Livi led an expedition to Germany. His ambition to conquer Germany was clearly revealed.

But this battle was too brutal. The Anglo and Saxon tribes that were mainly attacking from the south today suffered more than 20,000 casualties.

In ancient times, an ordinary army could be judged as unable to continue fighting as long as the casualties exceeded one-third of its number.

If they can continue to fight, they can definitely be called the Iron Army.

Therefore, the expeditionary armies of the two tribes have actually been abolished, and no one wants to follow in the footsteps of the two tribes.

"I know you are worried about the heavy losses of your tribe and are afraid of the weapons of the Romans. But don't worry, the main attack this time will be carried out by us Sbebi people. Cimberius!"

Wufa said.

"Brother!"

said Cimberius loudly.

"I order you to lead fifty thousand tribesmen to attack from the south. You are not allowed to stop without my order."

Wufa said.

"As you command, brother."

Cimberius said.

"Now you are satisfied, we Sibebi people have undertaken the most difficult task."

Wufa said.

The generals looked ashamed. They felt that they were too selfish.

However, Taiti's face looked a little ugly. It was really against the tradition of his tribe to allow the corpses of his people to be trampled on.

But faced with this situation, what can he do.

Under Wulfa's strong request, these German troops launched another attack.

Seeing this, Levi couldn't help but frown. He didn't expect Wu Fa's desire to attack to be so strong.

But what's the use? It is impossible to break through this line of defense without tens of thousands of people dying, and the bastion is notoriously difficult to attack.

"Let them come back."

Levi thought for a while and said.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of the Germans to retreat, he sent some soldiers to clean up the corpses piled up under the city wall, but now he had to let them withdraw.

After they returned to the military camp, the Sbebes, led by Cimberius, quickly rushed to the city wall.

The Spebes were highly armed, but this was of little use in the presence of gunpowder.

Not long after, the rumble of cannons sounded again on the city wall, and various explosions were heard. One after another, the Sbebes were killed and injured. Qinberius, who rushed in front, was also their focus.

So it didn't take long for Qimberius to be carried back covered in blood.

"Your Majesty, we are guilty! We failed to protect General Cimberius!"

One of Qimberius's guards said with a sad look on his face.

"younger brother."

Wulfa looked at Qimberius in shock. He did not expect that his brother would be so seriously injured.

"It's...not to blame...them. Brother...be careful..."

Chimberius struggled to say, and then completely passed out.

"Take him down quickly for treatment."

Wu Fa said with red eyes.

Soon someone took Qimbarius down. Looking at Wufa who was in a rage, the German generals remained silent.

Under Wulfa's personal command, the Sbebi people rushed towards the city wall like crazy.

The battle lasted from noon to the afternoon, and many earth walls were almost lost.

Levi had to use special bombs several times to force the enemy to stop attacking.

Then they took the opportunity to burn the corpses in front of the city wall, and the raging fire prevented the enemy's attack.

Wu Fa looked at the enemy camp angrily. These damn enemies actually burned those corpses.

At this time, a large number of Sibebi tribal chiefs came over.

The Sbebe people are divided into about 100 tribes, and each of these chiefs is in charge of a tribe.

They are equivalent to a group of princes, and even Wufa must pay attention to their opinions.

"What's wrong with you?"

Wu Fa asked pleasantly.

"Your Majesty, it's better to stop attacking first."

said one of the chiefs.

"Why? I said that our attack will never stop until the enemy camp is breached."

Wu Fa's expression changed.

"Your Majesty, our tribe has brought more than 1,000 warriors, and now there are more than 600 casualties. Please leave some seeds for our tribe."

cried the chief.

"Our tribe suffered more than 500 casualties."

"Our tribe suffered more than 400 casualties."

"..."

Said one tribal chief after another.

Wulfa did not expect that their casualties would be so high. You must know that the Sbebe tribe was the foundation for him to become the King of Germany.

Without the support of these tribal chiefs, he would never have become the king of Germany.

"Are your casualties that high?"

Wulfa asked.

"Yes, we have counted and found that we, the Spebi people, have suffered more than 15,000 casualties. Your Majesty, we can't fight anymore. Let's switch to other tribes."

said a tribal chief.

Although Wu Fa had long been mentally prepared for the huge casualties, he did not expect that the casualties would be so huge.

If we fight like this for a day, Sibebe's army may be defeated and collapsed.

He glanced at the other generals, who were all shocked. They didn't expect the casualties to be so heavy.

"Our Anglo and Saxon tribes suffered more than 22,000 casualties this morning and are no longer able to fight anymore."

Taiti said simply.

In this way, the number of casualties in the south alone reached more than 37,000, and when included in the east, the number of casualties probably reached more than 40,000.

In other words, at the end of the day, six and a half Roman legions were gone.

Wu Fa couldn't help but be shocked. It seemed that today's decision was wrong.

Looking at Wulfa's ever-changing expression, the other German generals obviously realized this.

An army of 40,000 is a huge number no matter which tribe it is, even the Sbeibi tribe.

"Send my order to retreat."

Wu Fa thought for a while and said.

The melodious bugle sound sounded, and the Germans retreated one after another.

Wu Fa left here alone. What no one noticed was that his hands were shaking.

***

***

Late at night, Wulfa went to visit Cimberius in person.

This is a large tent, and two guards are guarding the door.

After seeing Wu Fa, he quickly saluted. Wu Fa nodded, opened the door curtain and walked in.

Even though Cimberius was General Speybee, the furnishings inside were still very simple.

Apart from a bed, there was only some simple furniture.

It's just filled with a strong smell of alcohol, which should be used to clean wounds.

Alcohol was extremely expensive in the Germanic regions, and only some people of very high status could afford it.

Cimberius was lying on a bed, his face pale.

A tall and thin doctor who is slightly thin is persuading Cimberius to drink herbal medicine. This doctor is a Roman doctor living in Gaul. After being sent to the Sbebe tribe by Ariovistus, he was killed by Wu. The Dharma was regarded as the most precious treasure and he always carried it with him.

But Cimberius didn't seem to want to drink the herbs, which made the doctor very embarrassed.

"Brother, drink it."

Wufa said.

"Brother, it's not like you don't know. This stuff tastes terrible. I really don't want to drink it."

Qimberius said with a grimace.

"Do you want me to feed you?"

Wufa said with a smile.

Qinberius looked helpless and could only drink the bowl of medicine.

"How is my brother's injury?"

Wulfa asked.

"I removed the lead pellets from his body, cleaned and bandaged him, and there shouldn't be much of a problem."

the doctor said.

"Lead shot?"

Wulfa asked.

"Yes, the enemy's weapons are filled with a lot of this stuff. I heard the great philosopher... I heard people say that lead is poisonous. I don't know if it will affect his injury. I have never encountered this before. situation."

said the doctor, quietly concealing his mistake.

Wufa's face was expressionless, as if he didn't notice his little trick.

Although he hates Li Wei very much, he has an inexplicable trust in Li Wei's ability, which is a mentality that even he is extremely troubled with.

"You go down first. Pay attention to his condition during this period and make sure it doesn't get worse."

Wufa said.

"As you command, Your Majesty."

After the doctor retreated, Chimberius asked: "Brother, did you have a bad fight today?"

"You are right, the enemy's god-given weapon is too powerful."

Wufa sighed and said.

"Are we going to fail?"

Qimberius asked.

"Who knows this."

Wufa said.

"Brother, you have to be careful about our food. Some tribes don't have much food. I heard that some only have less than 20 days. The key is that they have to keep the food for the return trip."

"I see."

Wufa said.

Some tribes were very far away and only brought food for more than a month.

But it would take more than ten days for them to come here, so how could they eat enough food?

It can be said that food is his biggest crisis. It is the lack of food that makes him have to attack Li Wei.

"I have asked the Ubi and Kadi people to find ways to raise food and send it over. In addition, our Sibebi tribe will also bring some more, but I'm afraid it won't be too much."

Wufa said.

Chimberius couldn't help but curl his lips. The Ubi tribe was defeated in Naibo City last year, and as a result, their vitality was severely damaged. They are still unable to recover. There are many complaints against Wu Fa among the tribe.

The Kadi people have just relocated a large number of people, so where can they get food?

Not to mention the three Teutonic tribes, they either suffered heavy losses in the previous year, or they were just driven out of the tribe by Li Wei, and they had no time to take care of themselves.

Moreover, they provided nearly 100,000 troops this time. Wu Fa also understood their difficulties and did not ask them for food at all.

He looked around, but there was no one who could bring out food.

Cimberius finally realized that if they could not break through the Roman camp in a short time, they would be in real crisis.

***

***

After another sleepless night, Wu Fa was fully dressed and ready to command the army to fight again the next morning.

At this moment, Burton suddenly rushed into his tent with a look of panic.

"Your Majesty, thousands of Roman cavalry have appeared at our northernmost point. They are massacring our people. I beg you to allow us to go and save our people."

Wu Fa couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this.

"What did you say? Thousands of cavalry? How did they get past."

"We should go there by boat. Our tribe is being burned down by them. Please allow us to go to support them."

Burton said anxiously.
