"Today, we are going to drink the blood of the Romans! Today, we are slaying the demons that enslaved us in the past! Today, we are fighting for freedom! ”

Appis's hundred-man squad had already reached the town's bazaar, while Batas, the leader of the rebellious slave army, was still in the town hall, preaching his pitiful and pale speech. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 There was silence around the info, and everyone knew that today was their time of death......

"The Romans have come in!"

A boy covered in blood rushed into the town hall in terror, his eyes full of despair, and Bartas angrily drew his dagger and rushed out like a black bear. Behind them, followed by dozens of desperate slave rebels.

……

"Kill all these animals! Not a single one to stay! ”

The Romans were born with a strict and traditional family education, and they regarded all peoples outside Rome and Greece as barbarians, and most of these slaves were captured in war, so the Romans would only raise their hands and slaughter the barbarians who rebelled against Rome.

A heavily armed renegade slave slashed at the centurion with a short sword in his hand, while Seklas simply held his shield and lunged him out of the way with a short lunge, and then, before he could get up, the sharp blade of the legion had already cut off his arm.

"Despicable cattle, your rebellion is as small and fragile as ants."

Sekras stomped on the struggling slave, mocking his weakness and ignorance.

And the slave who was trampled under his feet spat and fought back with all his might.

"I'll never go back to being a slave! Romans! ”

His saliva spurted with blood, and Sekras ignored his squeak, leveling his dagger and sending it into the slave's mouth, piercing his head before he could finish speaking. Blood gushed out, and Sekras got up and turned to deal with the other rebel slaves who were fighting against him.

Standing in front of the city full of blood and beacon fire, Apis couldn't help but take a deep breath, this is the rule of the ancient Roman world, once he was one of the slave members, and now, he had to personally command and exterminate these rebellious slaves.

Several GIs rushed into the houses on both sides of the street, ** local women, this is the tradition of the Romans, the tradition of war, and in the street fighting, the culprit who instigated the slave rebellion Batas also appeared, he held the short sword of the Roman legion in one hand, and the thick battle axe in the other, fighting like a barbarian, Apis suddenly remembered the Spartacus who fought bloodily in the arena back then, but this thing was obviously not, his mind and gladiatorial fighting skills were far inferior to Spartacus back then, and several GIs rushed up to hunt him.

Batas swung his tomahawk in a whirlwind slash motion, the thick axe in a bloody arc in front of him, while the Roman infantry in front of him clung to the legion's shield and parried the savage and unskilled slash.

The Legion's shield blocked the powerful blow, and the flying sawdust on the shield explained the ferocity of the blow just now. Then, several veterans followed left and right, striking Batas in the face with a shield and stabbing him in the ribs.

Batas was stabbed in the abdomen, but still using the last of his strength, he held the legionnaire who had assassinated him in his arms and brutally slit the soldier's throat with a short sword. Blood splattered on his face, connected to the large hole in his abdomen, and the whole person looked like a blood demon from hell, and then, another veteran of the Tenth Legion was not afraid of the scene in front of him, and another fierce shield blow knocked the strong Batas to the ground, the bridge of his nose was broken and the thick smell of blood choked into his nasal cavity, making him almost unable to breathe, but the outright hatred for Rome still made this tough guy grab the axe on the ground and "charge" with all his might, but his slash became powerless, The tomahawk fell weakly in front of the Roman soldiers, and then, the legionary veteran kicked him in the cheek, almost blinding one eye, and the rebellious slave leader was knocked to the ground, his whole body was bleeding, and his body was convulsing violently, but the Roman legionary veteran, who had experienced countless battles, ignored such a scene, and directly held the short sword, and a sword was inserted into Batas's chest, the position of the heart.

The farcical slave rebellion was bloodily suppressed, and a siege battle resulted in the Tenth Legion losing less than five soldiers, while the rebellious slaves were killed and wounded, and their bodies hung on both sides of the road leading to the town center, symbolizing the severe punishment of the Romans for the betrayers.

Quite dramatically, several hunters and gladiators who had previously been sent out by Batas to lure the Roman legions survived.

"We have to think about Pharnaciss, where we have been delayed for at least five days."

After dealing with the slave rebellion, Klein walked into Appis's camp, the future battle is still full of hardships, the historical Farnasis rebellion was even commanded and suppressed by Caesar himself, although it is recorded that Caesar only had a thousand men to suppress tens of thousands of rebels, but Apis always felt that it was impossible......

"Yes, we will march along the coastline of Silesia until we reach the two large towns occupied by Pharnacis, where we have been delayed for five days, and I think Pharnaciss, by this time, he must have gathered his large rebel army and waited for us outside the town."

The newly bloodied town of Clifania was in shambles, and Appis had no time to deal with the rest of the town's affairs, so he told Crassus the Younger about the next march of the legion. The coastline was not blocked by woods and rough terrain, and it was a relatively safe route for the legions, but it would take a long detour to reach the towns occupied by Pharnaciss, but the Roman legions were most afraid of surprise attacks from the mountains and forests, and Appis knew this very well, so he could take a longer detour to ensure the absolute safety of the two legions.

"Send more scout cavalry to observe the situation of the rebels, and by the way, figure out the terrain around the town, so that we can attack the city when the time comes. By the way, is there any news from Lepida? ”

Apis asked as he sat down in the blanket chair with a gloomy expression.

"No, no news."

Klein replied fifteen-ten.

"There's a question I've always wanted to ask you, brother."

"Say it."

"Caesar has entrusted you and Lepida to complete the suppression of the rebellion of Pharnacis, but now, without waiting for Lepida, you will lead the legion into the heart of the rebels, and if Lepida's army has not yet landed, we will defeat the rebels of Pharnacis, then ...... Does Lepida think you're robbing him of his merits? ”

It has to be said that Klein has a certain political acumen, but unfortunately he does not have a prominent family background, this Roman man is destined to be just a commoner for the rest of his life, at most he made a fortune in war and became a knight. His questions were sensitive, but Apis had been prepared for a long time.

"Someone else would, but Lepida wouldn't, because Juniela Sykes is Tertilla's sister, in other words, Lepida and I, in fact, are related. Since this marriage was recognized, I, Lepida, Seville, and Brutus have actually been linked, and we are allies. Yes, the League ......"

Appis said, his eyes dimming. The woman he loved, one became a victim of the political struggle in Rome, and the other, for various reasons, quietly disappeared and left him, and in the end, he could only marry with politics, and the higher he reached the top of society, the more unfree the marriage became...... What is gained is always exchanged for what is lost...... (To be continued.) )
