Chapter 61: The Fierce Battle (1)

Soon, Yang Ye, who was extremely anxious about the task suddenly released by the system, took Christian to the station of the Blue Star Trading House, and then directly left the Canaan Imperial Capital with the young army that had quickly completed the assembly after receiving his own order, and headed towards his old nest, Rome City.

However, not long after leaving the Canaan Imperial Capital, Yang Ye, who was restless in his heart, began to dislike the speed of the youth army, so he directly abandoned the youth army to his escort captain Christian, while he led the rest of the general guards towards Rome day and night......

**************

In the early morning of the eighth day after Yang Ye left the imperial capital, a group of dusty knights rushed into a young and energetic city called 'Rome' on a vast plain near the 100,000 mountains of the Canaan Empire.

Soon, the group of knights galloped all the way through the wide street without encountering any obstacles, and soon came to the door of the Lord's Palace, and then saw the knight in black armor at the head of the horse in front of the Lord's Palace, ignoring the people who came to help him dismount, so he jumped off his horse in a hurry, grabbed a nearby servant, asked him about the position of the current governor of Rome, and then rushed to a certain room in the Lord's Palace......

Then, shortly after the knight rushed into the lord's mansion, he shouted "Touch!" The sound of kicking the door spread throughout the Lord's Mansion.

At this time, in the room where the sound of kicking the door was heard, Publius was holding the quill in his hand that had been correcting documents since Yang Ye left, and looked at the black-armored knight who walked in calmly after kicking the door open in front of him.

"My lord, as your nephew, I am glad that you are back, my lord, but can you not show your presence in such a way? Especially when the finances are particularly tight now, you must know that this door is still very expensive. Publius took a deep breath and buried the desire to hit him before speaking. That's right, this knight in black armor is none other than Yang Ye, who finally rushed back before the barbarian army reached Rome after choosing to abandon the infantry and only take the guards around him day and night.

"The vengeful army of the barbarians is coming." These were Yang Ye's first words after kicking in the door and ignoring Publius' teasing.

"Sir, are you sure of the accuracy of the message? How many people came? How long does it take to arrive? After hearing Yang Ye's words, Publius also put away the extra black lines on his face because of Yang Ye's kicking of the door, and asked seriously.

"The news is not wrong, the number of people will probably be about 5w people, as for how long it will take? It would probably be two days before the army was under the city of Rome. ”

"Fifty thousand, and in two days they will be in Rome? ...... "After hearing Yang Ye's detailed information, Publius fell into deep thought, and Yang Ye saw that Publius fell into deep thought because of his own information, although he was extremely anxious in his heart, but he also stood aside and waited quietly, after all, Yang Ye knew very well that his command ability was still very naΓ―ve, and even Tiberius's command talent could easily crush himself, let alone Publius.

In such a quiet wait, time passed minute by minute, and finally Publius came to his senses when the scorching sun of noon was basking the earth, and then solemnly looked at Yang Ye in front of him and said, "Lord Lord, I suggest sending troops to fight these barbarians to the death in the wilderness!" ”

"What!? Dispatch troops?! After hearing Publius's words, Yang Ye shouted out incredibly, although in his heart Yang Ye felt extremely approved of Publius's proposal, but when Publius said this, Yang Ye was still very surprised. Because in Yang Ye's thoughts, Publius would propose to defend the city......

"That's right, my lord, I propose to send troops to the barbarians to fight it out in the wild!"

"Can you tell us why? Publius. Although he had already agreed to Publius's proposal to go out of the city for a battle in his heart, Yang Ye, who was curious about why Publius would support the field battle out of the city, still asked.

"Because up to now, Rome's defense force is only 6,000 youth troops who have just completed conscription and basic training, and even after a temporary emergency call-up, there will be no more than 6,500 at most, and such a defensive force is only more than 1,600 people on one side after being dispersed to 4 city walls, which is not enough to resist the crazy attack of the barbarians with as many as 5w people, so it is better to concentrate all the troops and fight a decisive battle with the barbarians." After hearing Yang Ye's question, Publius calmly analyzed.

"......" Yang Ye didn't know what to say after listening to Publius's analysis, Yang Ye didn't expect that the city defense battle that he thought was very advantageous compared to the field battle was actually the way to die in Publius's opinion...... "It seems that I am still limited by the game, this is the reality that there is no such thing as which side will have an advantage." Yang Ye sighed silently in his heart.

"Then go out of the city and fight! Rome is not afraid of a challenge! Publius! Rome tomorrow will be in your hands. After sighing, Yang Ye, who had already known through Publius' analysis that defending the city was the way to death, no longer had the entanglement of defending the city and fighting in the field, and said categorically to Publius.

"For Scipio! For Rome! After hearing Yang Ye's words, Publius stood still in a standard Roman military posture, and then slammed his left chest with his right hand and spoke loudly.

I have to say that the generals produced by the system are still very considerate of the host, from 'For Scipio!' For Rome! In this statement, it can be heard that Publius' first allegiance was to the house of Scipio, not to Rome.

It's a pity that Yang Ye doesn't have time to think so much now, after all, under the threat of the 5w barbarian army, it is a question of whether Rome has a future or not. So at this time, Yang Ye, who only heard the strong determination in Publius's words, patted Publius on the shoulder and said: "Publius, go and gather the army that belongs to our Roman city, there is still a fierce battle waiting for us!" ”

"Yes! Your Lord! Then I'll go down and gather my troops first. ”

Then, after answering Yang Ye's words, Publius walked out of the room and walked quickly towards the location of the barracks.
