"Hey, Lord Hermanus!"

Luga's armor was particularly dazzling in the sun's rays, and he held the cable in one hand and looked down at the hull of the ship where Hermanus was. The massive six-column battleship really frightened the Vandals, who no longer begged for battle, but fled back to their ships screaming and following the iron hook.

"Oh, I hope I'm not too late, Lord Hermanus." Luga said to Hermanus below, looking back. I saw a huge plank dropped on the six-column battleship where Luga was, and that plank was all too familiar to an old navy like Hermanus, who often lived on the warship. This thing is a crow's beak board that has been handed down since it was invented in the war with the Carthaginians, and the old duck-beak warships were no longer needed, but such planks were retained.

"What are you doing standing stupidly? Why don't you come up soon? Luga shouted to bring Hermanus back to his senses, and with the help of the soldiers, he stepped up to the plank and came to the six-column battleship where Luga was. The rest, whether soldiers or slaves, Luga put them on board.

Even for the rest of their lives, the bloodied soldiers huddled in the corners of the ship, trembling and staring blankly, the after-effects of a long period of mental tension that would take some time to heal.

"Hey, Berialiu..."

Luga saw Berialiu coming up, and was about to come forward to greet him, and wanted to interview him about how he felt for the rest of his life, but who knew that Berialiu was weak, he didn't pay attention to Lujia at all, but passed by Luga's side, and shrank in the corner with the same listless team.

"What is he?" Luga couldn't understand Berialius's move, because he was facing such a tragic battle when he first went to the battlefield, but he was able to quickly adjust his mentality, and at this time, when he recalled his original actions, he didn't mean to be half afraid, maybe he was used to the boldness of birth and death.

"Oh, I beg your pardon, Lord Luga."

Hermanus came forward to apologize to Luga, "He must have been frightened, that's why he is like this, Your Excellency, forgive him, I'm afraid he will need to be relieved for a while." ”

"I can understand, Lord Hermanus." Luga smiled at Hermanus as he spoke, saying that he did not blame Berialius for this.

"I would like to express my gratitude to you for coming to help this time, really, if it weren't for you, I might ......."

"This is not the time to discuss this, Lord Hermanus!" Luga interrupted Hermanus's thanks and said: "Your Excellency, we have solved the trouble on land, and seeing that Your Excellency's battle on the river is not going well, so I specially came to ask what is going on, but I didn't expect to meet Your Excellency in danger, and it is natural to rescue the Romans." ”

"I'm sorry, Lord Luga!" Hermanus looked very disappointed, because this was not a close battle, he didn't expect it to be in a state of anxiety, and even he almost let Vandal live, as the supreme commander of the fleet, he naturally has an unshirkable responsibility.

"Well, I didn't blame you, Lord Hermanus." Feeling that his words were a little harsh, Lu Jia immediately corrected his words and hurriedly said: "The defeat in this battle cannot be said to be Your Excellency's fault, because I also learned about the general situation just now. The surprise attack of the Vandals did catch you by surprise, and if it were me, I would not have guessed that the Vandals would have used small boats to surround the big ships and destroy the six ships with fire. And the practice of gathering superior forces to besiege the flagship, at least it can be seen from this that they are too smart! ”

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency, but I was negligent, I thought that using heavy warships to be sent side by side would destroy their fleet." Hermanus apologized again and again, so Luga felt embarrassed, in terms of seniority, he wanted to be decades old Luga, and in terms of experience, he was far above Luga, but because Luga was the adopted son of Augustus Theodosius, the difference in status was revealed.

"As I said, it's not your fault, Lord Hermanus."

Luga looked at him with a serious face, and came to his side and said to him, "Despite the mistakes in the early battle, we still maintain our absolute superiority, the Vandals are already out of breath, and we need to work harder to be able to take them down in one fell swoop!" ”

"Well, what do you mean......" Hermanus asked.

"Come!" Lugar led Hermanus to the bow of the ship, where the Vandals were attacking the other ships, and their tactic was still to surround the large ships in dense numbers. Luga pointed to the "land" made of small boats and said to Hermanus: "They tried in vain to restrain the already cumbersome six-column warships by bunching them, but this also limited their movement, so we can do the same." ”

At this point, Hermanus was still puzzled, and did not seem to understand the meaning of Luga's words.

"I mean, they've pooled it on land, so we might as well use another way to put troops on the edge and fight a land battle with their navy!"

"Your Excellency means to get on their ship and fight on their warship?" Hermanus suddenly became enlightened, and he nodded his head in agreement with Luga's idea.

"So, I still want to ask Lord Hermanus to help me!" Luga said, looking at Hermanus.

"If Your Excellency has any matter, just give orders, after all, Your Excellency is now the supreme commander!" Hermanus agreed.

"You are here to take charge of this warship, so this warship is the flagship of the Combined Fleet!" Luga gestured to the ship at his feet.

"Then, Lord Luga, ...... you," Hermanus asked.

"I'll lead the army to attack the Vandals' ships, and you'll be responsible for dispatching the ships to put enough pressure on the Vandals so that they can't be distracted during the battle, so that we can kill and injure more enemies."

"This ......," Hermanus looked troubled, and he didn't seem satisfied with such a response.

"Anyway, I'm not here to ask for your opinion." Luga tapped the armor on his chest and said: "Your Excellency actually agrees with me as the supreme commander, then follow my arrangement, I have been born and died for so long, and I have encountered such dangerous situations, so Your Excellency does not have to worry about me, stick to your post and cooperate with my attack." ”

Hermanus hesitated for a long time before finally nodding slightly.
