Septus immediately took the panicked Illicia father with him. Under the escort of the personal guards, they hurriedly mounted their spare horses and quickly evacuated the scene of the war.

And where would they care about the already completely defeated battle situation in the rear? Illicia's father was apparently completely out of his mind. He didn't know that the failure of this battle directly determined the failure of their encirclement mission.

And the failure of the encirclement will inevitably lead to the difficulty of Elixia's redemption multiplied, and it can even be said that there is no hope. And now most of his family and political resources have been exhausted in this war, and it is obvious that this war has been lost seven or eight.

As they retreated, Elixia's father sighed as he looked at the number of soldiers who had fled with them.

I didn't expect that I had been in the political arena for so many years, but in the end, I was beaten by a real hard battle, and it was difficult to turn over.

What's more, in the hands of such a group of strongmen, who can snatch back their daughter Elixia? Counting on Graeber? That's a fool's dream.

The thought of Graeber made him furious, and the guy didn't seem to say anything at all. In his description, the rebel army was not at all as strong as it was at this point. The orderly, well-equipped, and high-spirited troops that I saw in front of me were completely different.

Not even the shadow of the rebel army that Graeber said appeared. Looking at the whole battle, where did you see the so-called gladiator legion?

And it is clear that these strong gladiators are scattered in the key positions of the various troops. It played a key role as a core and mainstay among the cavalry and infantry.

This kind of close cooperation is not something that can be cultivated overnight, so Graeber has been telling a big lie from the beginning.

He wasn't the only one who wanted to understand these plots, and the cypsius next to him had already guessed the roughly. But they really didn't understand the purpose of Graeber's lie, and didn't everyone now work together to rescue his wife?

However, they will never know the answer.

For they were almost at their rear camp. Seeing the majestic and majestic whole camp, their hearts began to gradually let go. There were still thousands of soldiers in the camp on the defensive, and although their combat effectiveness was not comparable to that of the soldiers on the front line, it was better than nothing.

At least now their lives are worry-free, and after slowly waiting for the retreating soldiers and generals to return, they can still form a certain combat effectiveness, but whether the whole army can fight again is another matter.

Just as they staggered towards the camp with their tired bodies and minds, they didn't want to meet an acquaintance they didn't expect.

Wasn't that majestic man on horseback the same Graeber who had been slandering them for a long time?

Graeber had obviously brought a lot of elite foot riders, and the sharp tips of their knives were terrifying. Septus and Illicia's father had already felt bad from the first sight of Graeber's appearance.

Shouldn't this guy have laid out an encirclement of the rebel army on the Western Front at this time? It was impossible for him to know the defeat of this battle at the first time, and even if he did, it would be impossible to teleport here.

Coupled with his outrageous lie before the war, and they were shocked to find that this unit was not wearing the standard armor of the Roman army, but was wearing a patchwork of equipment like the rebel army.

That is until they find the banner behind the horses, the flag of the Spartacus rebels. Now they also understood that this banner was obviously also the soul of several of them.

The sword-wielding people in front of them are going to kill them.

Graeber gave a sinister smile. I don't know if it was because of weakness of heart or for what reason, he didn't say a word, and in a flat expression, he stretched out his finger and pointed at the remnants of the defeated soldiers in front of him.

Septus and the others didn't even have a chance to speak, and they were killed on the spot by Graeber's elite cavalry.

After doing all this, Graeber quickly disposed of the corpse, and disappeared into the wilderness with the cavalry. It's a pity that Septus and the others are only half a mile away from their big army tent. But it was this half-mile distance that determined their tragic fate.

When the remaining soldiers in the camp found out that something was wrong and hurried over, there was still a trace of it. Their natural first reaction was that there was a huge problem on the frontline battlefield.

Because just now, the sentry clearly discovered that the enemy was the cavalry unit of the Spartacus rebel army. The fact that they were able to sweep to this place only shows that the defeat at the front line is already very terrifying.

So under the command of the generals left behind, they began to confine the battalion and shrink the defense, and did not dare to make any moves to send reinforcements out of the battalion.

Septios's front-line army was not as completely defeated as Septus had expected. Due to the reasonable and efficient recruitment system of Rome and the relatively reasonable ratio of troops, their troops have a certain space for both fighting and retreating.

In the case of no morale, it can still retain a certain amount of bottom-line strength. In addition, the front row of the infantry battle formation was full of veterans recruited from all over the country. They fully trust each other and cooperate closely, and even when their combat effectiveness is seriously inferior to that of the other party, they are still able to hold a steady battle line and not be cut through with their backs.

When they fought and retreated, they had a larger room to escape. But who would have thought that the rout of the cavalry troops would be so rapid.

At the same time, with the retreat of their own rear commanders, this unit completely lost the will to fight. No matter how experienced and strong-willed the veterans are, there is no way to protect themselves in a battle where they lose their command.

On the side of the rebel army, it was still operating efficiently under the overall control and unified command of Jin Zhan, and wherever there was a weak point of the enemy, it would immediately point to where to attack and attack its vital points.

Soon the Roma army was exhausted and could not function properly. Then, when the rebel cavalry troops arrived to reinforce after defeating the cavalry of Cypsius, the flanks of Cypsius' infantry phalanx became a huge problem, and the whole battle formation began to become in shambles, and it was difficult to organize any effective defensive battle group.

A full-scale rout has finally begun.

The rebels were well aware of the importance of this battle. Since the battle was going much smoother than they expected, the next step was to beat the water dogs and chase after the poor.

The rebels have won many battles, large and small, but the confidence and morale boost brought by such a frontal battle against so many enemies is incomparable.

In this battle, almost all the soldiers on the rebel side turned into vengeful gods, and the defeated Roman army was like nothing, and the hearty pursuit and killing footsteps were unstoppable.

I thought to myself, just such a bunch of guys, do you still want to surround yourself? Since you're here, there's no reason to let you leave casually.

This protracted pursuit and killing battle lasted until dusk. There are too many Roman soldiers in the overwhelming world, and the number of people on the rebel side is relatively limited, so it is naturally impossible to truly destroy the enemy in an all-round way. However, it is necessary to deal the deepest and heaviest blow to the other side in terms of morale, so that they can completely disintegrate the idea of surrounding them.

At this time, the remaining number of Septus's army was probably far less than 10,000. However, there are still a lot of cavalry remaining, after all, in the shock battle just now, the cavalry troops in the back row have not had time to participate in the battle, and they have already been defeated and fled. Therefore, it is considered to be the most intact structure of all of them.

And when this cavalry unit fled in a hurry, it found that there was a neat and large army of Romans in front of them. This made them cry with joy and couldn't help themselves.

Isn't that majestic force really General Graeber's troops?

Seeing Graeber's army, the defeated soldiers of Septus who supported those who escaped were like seeing a life-saving straw, and they threw themselves into his command.

According to the information provided by the defeated soldiers, Graeber also went all the way south to gather the rout soldiers who kept coming. Until Graeber's army finally came out of the way with the pursuing main forces of the rebel army.

Jin Zhan's powerful eyesight naturally spotted the movements of Graeber's army for the first time. Judging by the number of troops that appeared in front of him, it seemed that Graeber's main force had arrived.

In that case, Graeber didn't even bother to set up an encirclement against them. At the same time, he did not have any idea of participating in this head-to-head showdown. Otherwise, he wouldn't have waited so long for the battle to appear so calmly.

Then Graeber's real purpose at this time may not be simple, or it may be Azul's plan. Maybe the entire Cypsius army is Graeber's real plan.

What so-called encirclement plan is just a cover-up, with Azul in the opposite camp, Jin Zhan couldn't help but make the most daring idea.

Then now the rebels will have to withdraw their troops. Graeber had obviously been working for a long time, and if he pursued it again, he would be fighting the enemy in his heyday with a tired army.

So the soldiers of the rebel army, under the command of Jin Zhan, restrained the pace of forward pursuit, quickly gathered back to form a neat battle formation, and confronted Graeber's army again.

And after Graeber's army had contained most of the defeated forces of Septus, the size of the entire army had reached a level of terror. As far as the eye can see, it is simply endless, obscuring the sky and the sun.

Even the soldiers of the rebel army, whose morale was extremely high under the new victory, couldn't help but sigh secretly when they saw such a huge scale.
