"The city gates can't be closed, our city gates can't be closed!!"
"If they can't be closed, deal with them first. Deal with these people who have stormed into our city, and then close our city gates!!"
"Alright, these people dared to charge at the forefront, so they should also pay the price!!"
The soldiers of the Roman Empire had not experienced Lin Tian's might, so they were not afraid of him.
Although Lin Tian was now very powerful in killing, they still charged towards Lin Tian without hesitation.
Their actions were strongly obstructed by the soldiers of the Crusader Army.
"Don't get close to him, absolutely don't get close to him. He is a devil, and anyone who gets close to him will die!!"
"We can't fight him in close combat. Use bows and arrows, quick, use bows and arrows! Let our archers shoot him to death. Only then will we have a chance to survive!!"
"Their general has killed many people. Many of us have died under his hands, so don't surround and kill him!!"
When their more than a hundred thousand strong army surrounded and killed Lin Tian, they didn't inflict any damage on him.
Under such circumstances, the soldiers of the Roman Empire still wanting to surround and kill Lin Tian was simply wishful thinking.
Therefore, the soldiers of the Crusader Army quickly stopped those Roman Empire soldiers.
However, their obstruction was ultimately a step too late.
Despite their strenuous efforts to stop them, a large number of soldiers still approached Lin Tian.
After they got close to Lin Tian, they wanted to kill him.
But when they actually made a move, they discovered that they were nothing in front of Lin Tian.
Not a single person who approached Lin Tian could last more than one move under Lin Tian's hands.
Even many experts planned to attack Lin Tian together. Who would have thought that all of them combined were dealt with by Lin Tian alone.
With a single sword swing, Lin Tian killed more than a dozen strong individuals around him.
Such terrifying combat power left everyone stunned.
It was only at this moment that they truly understood Lin Tian's terror.
Therefore, many of them instinctively retreated, wanting to distance themselves from Lin Tian.
However, as they retreated, Lin Tian pressed on.
Lin Tian, alone, fearlessly charged towards them.
And they dared not confront Lin Tian's charge, only wanting to retreat.
As they retreated, they shouted for the archers to fire.
They already knew that with their strength, it would be difficult to pose any threat to Lin Tian anymore.
Only when their archers acted could they possibly harm Lin Tian.
However, Lin Tian was too close to them, and the archers did not dare to shoot their arrows casually, for fear of accidentally injuring their own men.
This also led to a strange scene on the battlefield. Lin Tian, alone, was pursuing tens of thousands of Roman Empire troops, forcing them to retreat continuously.
This was incredibly humiliating for the Roman Empire's army.
Many of them couldn't bear to witness this shameful scene. They closed their eyes and looked elsewhere.
While they were still pondering whether this was a disgrace to their Roman Empire, Lin Tian's army had also stormed into the city.
When Lin Tian's army appeared, the situation completely changed.
If Lin Tian alone was chasing the Roman Empire's soldiers and forcing them to retreat, then the appearance of Lin Tian's army was a disaster for the empire's soldiers.
The first thing they did upon entering the city was slaughter.
No matter what those soldiers were doing, whether they were retreating or not, as long as they did not lay down their weapons, Lin Tian's army ruthlessly killed them.
This kind of slaughter filled the Roman Empire's soldiers with terror and the Crusader Army with despair.
"They're catching up, they're still catching up!!"
"I thought, I thought that once I entered this city, I could escape death, I could survive the calamity. I never imagined that I would still have to die!!"
"We've lost, our Crusader Army has finally suffered a crushing defeat. This time, we've lost completely, with no room for recovery. This time, we are all finished!!"
The defeat of the two hundred thousand strong Crusader Army was a massive blow to the soldiers of the Crusader Army.
Many of them could not withstand such a blow.
Many of them even raised their swords and slit their own throats in front of everyone.
They were unwilling to live in humiliation. Rather than die like this at the hands of Lin Tian's army, they preferred to commit suicide.
With this thought in mind, many of them did not hesitate and ended their own lives directly.
Perhaps in their minds, such an action could preserve their last shred of dignity.
However, Lin Tian's army was completely unfazed.
When it was time to slaughter, they showed no mercy.
Especially as the army behind them grew larger, they completely surrounded the city, leaving the people within the city with no chance of escape.
At this point, the commander of the Roman Empire's city also lost his composure.
"Why is this happening? Why has it turned out like this? Why are they so powerful??"
"How were our city gates broken? How did they open our city gates??"
"Is our army truly so不堪一击 (invincible/easily defeated) in front of them??"
The Roman Empire's commander had countless doubts in his heart.
But no one gave him answers, nor did he have the opportunity to find out.
In the end, he could only watch helplessly as his army was slaughtered bit by bit.
This process was long, yet it was also swift.
After Lin Tian's army entered the city, their fate was sealed.
In the end, not only the people of the Crusader Army died here, but also the Roman Empire's army died here.
Finally, Lin Tian's army occupied the place.
After occupying the place, the first thing Lin Tian ordered was to repair the city gates.
If this were the past, his soldiers would definitely not understand such a task.
But now, all his soldiers knew.
This was playing the pig to eat the tiger. Only by pretending to be weak could they lure more people from the Roman Empire into a trap.
As long as they fell for it, they would naturally come knocking, to be slaughtered by them.
However, they had already slaughtered twenty thousand of the Crusader Army. Under such circumstances, would any army still come to them to be slaughtered?
The soldiers of Great Qin had no answer to this question.
But since Lin Tian had issued the order, they naturally had to carry it out.
