"Victory came too easily!" Luga thought in his heart, the group of Bagunda rebels in front of him fled too quickly, and he was confused for a while. How is it possible, the real battle has just begun, and then it is over.

"Luga! Luga! ”

Andrew rode behind him and watched the situation of the entire battlefield carefully on the city wall, and Andrew naturally had the same doubts as Luga. As soon as he met with Luga, he asked, "What the hell is going on?" Before there was a so-called parity, they retreated. ”

"I don't know." Luga turned and dismounted, and he came to the front of the army with his rifle, and the soldiers stopped cheering, and they waited quietly for the general's departure.

Stepping over the still warm corpse, Luga couldn't understand why they had made such a decision, obviously having an absolute advantage, but they hurriedly withdrew from the battlefield when the outcome was decided.

"Oh my God, I really didn't see how vulnerable they were!" Andrew followed behind Luga, he looked at the corpse abandoned by the Bagunda rebels, laughed at Luga's back, and continued: "It's been two years, I don't know why they are like this, I feel that all my courage has been exhausted in these two years of infighting. What's wrong with them? Luga, didn't you see any clues in your contact with them? ”

"I really don't know!" Faced with Andrew's question, Luga didn't know how to answer it for a while. Just looking at their distant backs, these Bagunda rebels didn't lose their armor when they fled, and they didn't know if the weapons in their hands were too expensive or they had some intentions. This reminded Lu Jia of the "Cao Di Polemic" that he learned in school in person, and they didn't panic, so they naturally had some intentions.

"So what are we going to do?" Andrew then asked, "Since the Bagunda rebels are so vulnerable, then we can go all out and take Augusta Travel first, and let those two old guys see that we have such strength." ”

"Naturally!" Luga held the gun in both hands, because he noticed some movement in the pile of corpses under his feet, it was only a moment, but it was very unlucky, and Luga found out!

He didn't hesitate at all, stretched out his foot and kicked away the corpse lying on it, and as he expected, there was a Ba Gundam rebel lying inside, his leg was injured, and he couldn't escape, so he wanted to play dead and use the corpse of his dead comrade to hide it for himself, but the pain was unbearable, the wounded soldier couldn't help it, and let his injured leg move for a while, but he couldn't imagine that Lu Jia would find out about this detail.

When he saw Luga suddenly, he was frightened, because the Roman he saw was not the general who had just mounted a horse to encourage the soldiers, and if the Roman generals found out, then he would naturally die for life. His eyes were full of horror, and he spread his hands upwards to cover his face, trying to beg for mercy or fear that he would see this terrible Roman.

"It's my delusion that they retreated so recklessly, it must be like this!" Luga held a spear in both hands, the tip of which was pointed downward, and as he spoke, he stretched out his foot to step on the undead Bagunda rebel. This gang of lawless thugs has plagued this empire for too long, and although Luga has no grudges against them, he has a clear formation, and he is naturally incompatible. Even though the Bagunda soldier burst into tears, because he quickly saw Luga's intentions, he kept waving his hand at Luga, praying that even if he was resold into slavery, it would be better to die than to live.

"May God have mercy on you, whether you are wrong or not!" Luga muttered as he lifted his rifle and stabbed it hard.

Light as a feather, the death of this Bagunda rebel did not even make the eyelids of the already murderous executioner blink except for staining the tip of Luga's spear with his own blood.

"Whew!"

Luga stirred the rifle back and forth twice in his hand, and when he was sure that the Bagunda soldier would not move any more, he pulled out the rifle. He looked back at Andrew, who had been looking at him behind him, and said, "No matter what tricks they play, they can't stop us from moving forward, we must let them know that it's impossible to stop us!" ”

Hearing this, Andrew laughed, and he laughed as he said to Luga, "Yes, this is the perfect Luga in my image!" ”

Luga grinned symbolically, and casually tore a piece of clothing from the corpse of the enemy to wipe the rifle in his hand, because it was still usable.

After two days of rest, Luga left behind a few dozen soldiers who had been badly wounded in the battle, while the rest followed the army forward. He walked cautiously along the way, for ahead was the woods where the rebels of Bagoda had besieged Augustus, and now the smell of blood was no longer in the air. But the battle was still fresh in his mind, and Luga never seemed to have thought about how he would have reacted if the rebels had given him a surprise attack here.

"I just hope that this Arecio won't contact the Bagauda rebels in Visantio, after all, this guy has a criminal record." Luga was the most worried about Arecio, so this guy sounded from time to time on the way forward, and it was not clear if Sebastianus could watch him, after all, the two of them had teamed up against Aetius. Lu Jia is betting that they will not gain any benefit while framing themselves, after all, Lu Jia is their only hope to return to the political arena of the Western Empire, and when he thought of this, Lu Jia's nervous heart finally had some peace.

Scouts, the most critical and most tired of the army, Luga arranged for carriages to sleep on when they were tired and did not interfere with the progress of the advance. However, they had to go deeper into the dense forest and on foot, as Luga chose to bypass the woods while searching for the rebel scouts of Bagauda, and attack from the north of Augusta-Traville, so as to avoid a constant attack ahead.

It was only half a month to go, and the shaved beard that had been shaved when they set out arrived at the city of Augusta-Traville, and they were really not much different from the barbarians without the armor and banners of Rome.

Perhaps the rebels defending the city did not expect the Romans to appear from their north, so the Romans lined up the attacking array and pushed twenty newly assembled trebuchets, and the ballistae were countless, and the black pressure outside the city was full of Romans, and the city was naturally panicked and overwhelmed, and all the archers went up to the city wall, and they were in full array, presumably to fight Luga's legions to the end.

Luga was also unhurried, he expected that the defenders of Augusta-Traville had not yet asked for help from the rebels of Ba Gouda in other parts of the province, so where would the reinforcements come from?

He led Andrew and a rider with a Rabelan flag to a distance of two hundred meters from the city, and when he saw that the walls were full of rebels from Bagunda, he assumed that there must be their commander on it. He nodded at Andrew, who raised his head knowingly and shouted at the defenders at the city gate, "Is it to be washed in our blood, or to surrender in exchange for peace?" ”

The defenders made no reply, and Luga, suspecting that they had not heard clearly, told Andrew to shout again.

"Is it a battle, or is it a surrender?"

Andrew shouted twice in a row without getting a response.

"Andrew, stop shouting!" When Andrew was about to shout a fourth time, Luga stretched out his hand to stop him, and a cold light flashed in Luga's eyes, and he said unhurriedly: "They have made a choice, then we will respect them!" ”

Immediately afterward, Lugatsema turned back.

"Prepare for war! Prepare for battle! ”

The moment Luga turned back, the war machines of the two legions were already in operation!
