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

After hearing Planck's words, Cormazon was obviously moved.

Now that the situation is so unfavorable to the Romans, if Macrinus voluntarily surrendered and ignored his previous behavior, it would be okay.

He was silent for a moment, but still shook his head and said,

"Only you and I know about this matter, so don't mention it again in the future."

"Sir..."

Planck opened his mouth, but saw Comasson's face darken,
"Don't say any more!"

Plank had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.

Seeing this, Comasson breathed a sigh of relief.

He was indeed a little moved by Planck's proposal.

But the people of Long Kingdom did not attack the city, and the city of Rome has not yet fallen.

Until the last moment, Comasson was really willing to bear the infamy of a traitor and go to seek refuge with Mark Linsui.

Seeing Planck's disappointed expression, Comasson patted him on the shoulder,

"Don't worry, we will be able to defend Rome."

……

The day passed quickly, and as the sun set in the west, the sky gradually dimmed.

After capturing the port, Cao Mao had no intention of continuing to attack Rome, but instead established a temporary stronghold outside the city.

However, the Romans in the city did not let down their vigilance.

As the supreme commander, Gannis inspected the city's defense work, and it was already late at night.

He dragged his tired body back to his residence.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw a beautiful woman waiting for him. It was the mother of Emperor Elagabalus, Julia Soamias.

"Why did you come here?"

Gannis asked with a smile, taking off his heavy armor.

Seeing this, Soamias stepped forward and helped him drag the armor together.

"We heard in the palace... the battle ahead is not good?"

"Yes, the people of Long Kingdom are very aggressive, but on the first day, the port outside the city was captured by them."

Gannis hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth.

A look of fear flashed across Soamias' face,
"We won't fail, will we?"

"No, don't worry."

Gannis took her hand and comforted her softly,

"Even if it really fails, I am fully prepared. At that time, we will flee to the north together and leave the Apennines from the Alps."

"it is good!"

Soamias nodded, followed by a charming smile,
"I... don't intend to leave tonight."

Hearing this, Gannis' heart became hot, and he hugged Soamias.

Although he is an inhumane eunuch, it doesn't stop him from wanting to make out with Soamias!

……

After an unknown amount of time, Soamias, with a satisfied smile, snuggled into Gannis' arms, and the two gradually fell into a coma.

The night gradually became darker, and the entire city of Rome was exceptionally quiet.

Only the soldiers on patrol made footsteps from time to time.

However, at this moment, suddenly from the east of the city of Rome, there was an earth-shattering loud noise, followed by a burst of shaking!
Gannis and Soamias, who were sleeping, woke up from their sleep at the same time.

The two looked at each other, not knowing what happened.

"guard!"

Ganis yelled.

Two guards opened the door and entered, saluted Gannis,
"grown ups!"

"What happened just now?"

Gannis asked in a deep voice.

The two guards did not dare to look up at Soamias, who was naked, and said in a low voice,

"There was a loud noise from outside just now, and we don't know what happened."

Gannis frowned, and shouted sharply,

"Why don't you check it soon?"

"Yes, my lord!"

The two guards hurried away.

Gannis breathed a sigh of relief, looking at Soamias who looked panicked, he quickly comforted,
"It's okay, don't worry!"

Although he comforted Soamias in his mouth, he was a little nervous.

Outside the city was the army of the Dragon Empire, and there was such a loud noise suddenly in the middle of the night, I'm afraid there was a ghost in it.

Thinking of this, Gannis jumped up from the bed and quickly put on his armor.

By the time he was fully dressed, the two guards had already rushed back.

It's just that the expressions on the faces of the two of them at this moment are like seeing a ghost in broad daylight!
"My lord, it's not good... The east wall of the city has been destroyed!"

"what?"

Gannis and Soamias were taken aback, some couldn't believe their ears.

"Just now we went to the east gate of the city to check the situation, and found that the entire city wall has been turned into ruins, and the army of the Dragon Empire... is attacking from the ruins!"

As soon as these words came out, Gannis' complexion changed drastically!
How can this be?

The army of the Dragon Empire is clearly at the port outside the west gate of the city, how could it be possible to attack from the east gate?
Could it be... they pretended to attack the port, but landed ahead of time and launched an attack from the east gate? !
Gannis suddenly realized!
Previously, he mobilized all the troops on the Apennines to the city of Rome.

The rest of the Roman civilians, after knowing that the so-called Eastern barbarians were about to attack, fled into Rome with their families in fright.

On the entire Apennine Peninsula, it can be said that except for the city of Rome, there are basically no people in other places.

In order to deal with the Dragon Kingdom's navy, Gannis deployed most of his troops in the western urban area.

Cao Mao had expected such a thing to happen a long time ago, so before arriving at the port outside Rome, he moved closer to the shore and ordered Wei Yan and Macrinus to lead a team to attack from land!
When the Dragon Kingdom Navy arrived at the Roman port and launched an attack, all the Romans focused their attention on the port.

Meanwhile, Wei Yan and Macrinus took advantage of the night to quietly approach the eastern city wall, and used black powder to blow up the city wall in one fell swoop!
These oriental barbarians... are so cunning!
Gannis was angry and scared!
"What shall we do now?"

Soamias' face turned pale with fright, and asked in panic.

"Don't panic, you go back to the Palatine Palace and stay with His Majesty."

Gannis appeased Soamias and ordered several guards to send Soamias back.

And he immediately led the guards to the meeting room.

At this time, the conference room was already full of Roman nobles and military officers, all of them looked panicked and their eyes were full of anxiety.

"Everyone should know the situation, do you have any suggestions?"

Gannis wasted no time and asked directly.

Everyone looked at each other, but no one answered.

During the day, they thought that with the city wall, they could resist the people of Long Kingdom for a period of time, but they didn't expect that the city wall would be breached at night!

They have no good ideas at all for a while.

"These Dragon Kingdom people are too cunning."

Cormazon looked solemn,
"Our troops are deployed in Xicheng District, and there is no time to react."

"In my opinion, the best way is to abandon the urban area and retreat to the inner city. The situation will improve after dawn."
