There was no bloody plot in which traitors deceived the king so that the victorious soldiers were not allowed to enter the city. Mordred and the others easily entered the fortress, and the pursuing Roman cavalry was forced back by the Celtic longbowmen on the fortress with arrows.

"Damn!" Stirry sent Mordred back after the raid and punched the tree next to him. He remembered Mordred through and for all this time, and the last time it was Mordred who had ruined him and killed his former lieutenant. This time, it was Mordred who took advantage of Stirico's unstable foothold and burned down the camp.

"Have you counted it, and how are our losses?" As soon as Yugris returned, he heard Stirrico asking. "Just tell the truth."

"My lord, the casualties of our army are not large, only more than 3,000 people were killed by the attack when the fire first started, and 2,000 people were seriously injured. The total number of casualties was about five thousand. "There have been people in charge who have reported the situation to Ugris, and he just needs to repeat it." It's just that......... All the tents of our army were burned. ”

"That's the most troublesome part." The question of soldiers' casualties was not worth mentioning in Stirico's eyes. Britain poured all its strength into the country, and there were so few people who raided it, and it couldn't make many waves. The last thing that Rome lacked was people, if it weren't for the large number of soldiers used to suppress the rebellious barbarians, and Egypt and other ruled places that needed personnel to defend them, Rome would have sent more people to conquer Britain this time. With only five thousand casualties, this was not a big problem for the Roman army.

It's just that the camp was burned down, and it became a big problem to rebuild it. Otherwise, the Roman soldiers would have nowhere to go. The reason why the Romans had built their tents so quickly was because the materials for building the camp were rushed out and transported to Britain with the Romans' warships. They only need to be assembled after landing, and there is no need for such trouble.

But when the camp is destroyed, the camp needs to be rebuilt. In this way, a lot of time for the Romans would be wasted, and it would be very beneficial for the British side to gain time to prepare.

"Order the army, attack the nearby villages, occupy them and rest." Stiri decided to abandon the construction of the camp and instead occupy the nearby villages. In this way, the Roman army would not be allowed to sleep in the open tonight. Night is coming, the sun is setting in the west, and you have to hurry.

"What about the seriously wounded soldiers?" Yugris asked before leaving. Most of those who were seriously injured were left with disabilities and could no longer participate in combat even if they were cured.

"To live is to suffer, give them a good time." Stiriko's meaning is very clear, dispose of those seriously wounded soldiers, and deal with these burdens. Most armies in ancient times had the habit of killing the wounded, and this move by Stirrico was not inappropriate in this era.

The presence of the wounded greatly slowed down the march. The Romans invaded Britain, and there was no place to rest along the way. Even if there were, the remaining intact soldiers would have to be wasted to care for the wounded, resulting in non-combat attrition. Moreover, these wounded who have lost their combat ability are almost like crippled people, and they will consume food and medicine in vain.

As soon as the Romans landed in Britain, supply lines had not yet been established, and there was a shortage of food, grass and medicine. There is only one way to get rid of the wounded.

Napoleon also gave poisoned wine to the wounded of his army to speed up his march and get rid of his pursuers. Although this move was very effective, it was criticized by later generations. It also bought a hidden danger for Napoleon's later defeat due to his loss of popular support. Therefore, there are pros and cons to killing wounded soldiers, and it is beyond reproach. In ancient wars, humanity was naturally not on the radar.

"Yes, sir." Yugris was ordered to deal with the wounded, and whether to poison them or wave the butcher's knife directly at his own people was not something that Stirrico should be distracted from.

————— among the fortresses—————

Mordred was sweating profusely and scurrying back to the fortress, and although he could not see what was inside from the outside of his armor, Mordred was already sweating profusely, as if he had been fished out of water. The armor on Mordred's body was produced by her old mother, Sister Morgan Wang. It is not cold in winter, not heat in summer, and airtight. The most important thing is that Morgan has not considered the issue of comfort at all, and is not responsible for after-sales service after appearance. With this armor, Mordred doesn't know how many children have scared and cried.

"Oh oh oh oh !!" When Mordred returned to the fortress, the knights and soldiers stationed in the fortress let out a loud shout in unison. The battle against the Romans on the beach was a great failure, and the Romans landed ashore easily. The Celtic longbowmen, who had been invincible on the British side, also suffered heavy losses.

The loss of morale caused by this is not a little bit, and Mordred's victory in this raid has restored the decadent morale of the British side, which is a great gain. Moreover, the destruction of the camp tent of the Romans was a bonus.

This was a dilemma, as the unrest inevitably led to more casualties among the Romans in order to salvage the tents. If you want to preserve the troops, you can't keep the tents.

At this moment, the Romans' offensive was slowed down, and time was delayed for the Britons to organize a defense.
