Caesar's reprimand was simply magical, in Li Bida's newly built camp, the Ninth Legion and the Eleventh Legion were obedient, and "serving as labor" was the specific task assigned to them by Li Bida, to put it bluntly, it was to honestly build siege fortifications.

However, this did not mean that Li Bida was disciplining them, in fact, from the next day, the mule and horse teams pulled carts of cheese, flour, fat and wine, and sent them into the camp with joy, Li Bida deliberately opened the main and back doors of the camp at the same time, so that the grand supply team could be displayed to the defenders of Kocula without concealment, and divided the soldiers into two groups, one group was responsible for guarding the blockade line, and the other group was making fires in the camp to feast - they banged the barbecue forks loudly, Smelling the smell of barbecue on the wooden rack, accompanied by wheat bread soaked in hot bean soup, they talked warmly while eating, and of course the two coolie regiments were treated the same.

So every night, many enemy soldiers, who could not stand the lack of water, quietly climbed down from the wall and threw themselves into the camp on Li Pida's side, and it is believed that the situation in the east and south was roughly similar. "The enemy can no longer hold on", this has become the consensus of Caesar's whole army, but Caesar still did not take it lightly, he was like a gambler when he was at a disadvantage in strength, but he was very cautious when he had an absolute advantage, he gave the order to advance the blockade line: that is, first push the original camp, push forward two stadias, and destroy the enemy's fortified walls with his own projectiles; Then the blockade line was then advanced to the enemy's city wall for the second time, and a forced assault was carried out to occupy the enemy's towers and camps. Finally, the whole city was captured.

After dark. Rabinus slowly walked out of his tent. The slave next to him had already removed the golden eagle and garland from the top and kept them, and then Rabinus took down the ivy hanging on the door of the tent with his own hands, "This is the decoration that was originally intended to celebrate the great victory, but unfortunately it is useless now." Looking back, it was Pompey's youngest son, Cexes, and behind him stood his brother Law, and in the distance were groups of ordinary soldiers carrying light and heavy men towards the dockyard.

"Yes, I lived up to everyone's expectations. In the end, Caesar was completely besieged here. There were no qualified soldiers to fight back, the naval fleet was useless in this state, and the city defenses were exposed to enemy fire. Rabinus sadly put the ivy on the ground, "I'm too arrogant, too confident and arrogant, and now I'm failing, that's it." Therefore I am willing to lead most of my soldiers and hold on to this place until the fall of the city of Kocula. ”

"It's not good, I think you can take the ivy with you. It will be used someday - the father's supreme order has come, and all the generals will be taken with the First Macedonian Army. Climb to the deck and travel via Malta to the city of Utica, where you will be ready for victory. Sextus said, then held out his hand to Rabinus, "I know you must be in my father's camp very suspicious, so maybe you are too concerned about the outcome of a certain battle, you hate characters like Scipio and Gabinus, but I think they don't like you either, but my brother and I both think that the hope of defeating Caesar is still stored in people like you, so come with us and don't sacrifice your life in this Jedi." ”

"What about the rest of the legions?" Rabinus asked calmly.

Little Thor shrugged his shoulders, which was equivalent to replying, the fleet's carrying capacity was limited, and it could only transport five thousand men and horses to Africa.

"I think if the deck can be modified a little, it can still take another legion with it, which is a good calculation in terms of numbers, even if it capsizes in bad weather." Rabinus was reluctant to leave all three legions here to sit still, or to defect to Caesar.

"Because we have to go to another small island on the way, where we have the families and assets of the patriarchs who follow my father, we have to take this group of people with us, they don't like to be around dirty ordinary soldiers, I hope you can understand, although I also think that this group of people is not as valuable as the low-ranking centurions on the battlefield, but my father's career is inseparable from this group of people." ”

Rabinus said that he absolutely could not understand such an act, but he was not qualified to criticize Pompey's actions, fortunately, Pompey's two sons were very respectful of him, otherwise with the previous defeat of Coculla, a man like Gabinus would definitely impeach himself to death.

Three days later, Rabinus and his party fled Kokula by boat, taking only one legion with them, and the remaining three legions, including many centurions and tribunions who were unwilling to leave their comrades, silently lined up in their respective camps, "Now that our generals have left, we don't think we have anything to be sorry for the honor of the legions, but unfortunately, in the eyes of the generals, we have become a burden that must be discarded, and I didn't expect that so many years of service would end in such a humiliating way, Now we must save ourselves in a special way -- to keep a safe order, not to lose our dignity before the enemy, to put together a roster of men and baggage, and to wait for Caesar to dispose of us when we enter the city. "A military tribune of Pompey, who was elected, stood on the pulpit and said bitterly to the soldiers of the other three legions, and many of the officers and soldiers below wept bitterly, especially the people of the Panshen Legion (Second Legion), how could they not figure out that the Supreme Commander took the First Legion with him at the last moment, without taking them into account at all, didn't they always stand side by side with the First Legion as "twin stars"?

However, Caesar's legions had already entered the city, and the first to enter was Antony's troops on the southern front, and Antony sent a representative to demand that the enemy in front of him hand over the camp and the table, and when the other party complied, Antony's two legions immediately moved into the camp and the city defense, and treated the captives who surrendered kindly, and did not search their luggage.

About half an hour later, Caesar's and Lypida's two lines also entered Kocula and brought water to the abandoned soldiers of Pompey's legion—although Caesar himself was amiable in his surrender on horseback, his centurion instigated the surrender of the soldiers, asking them to cheer "Imperato" to the dictator as citizens and threatened to "shout, if you are not grateful, the dictator will no longer approve of your discharge pay and rations." I said guys, there is only one bald man who can protect the rights and interests of the loser in the civil war, stop holding the pedantry of inconsistencies! ”

Caesar, hearing this salutation, seemed to have a look of displeasure on his face, and he begged the soldiers not to forget that Rome was now a republic, and said, "Even if it were Pompey who won today, he would refuse such a title, although I think your cheers are sincere and kind."
