Five days later, a group of 142 gladiators, 4 reincarnators and 16 women, including 12 caravans, a total of 162 rebels, arrived at a small port in Brution in the southern Apennine Peninsula, in the area of what is now Catanzaro.

In the area around the small port, the rebel soldiers collected more than a dozen rudimentary fishing boats, barely enough to fit everyone. However, there is also a huge problem, these small boats are okay to fish inshore, but they have to be rowed by manpower, crossing more than 200 nautical miles at a speed of three or four knots, and it takes about three to four days to reach Greece.

When there are strong winds and waves at sea, almost all of them have to go into the sea to feed the fish. Xu Mo thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to go north along the southern coastline of Italy first, to the port of Brindisi, an important port in southern Italy. The port of Brindisi is close to Epirus in northern Greece, and it only takes them about a little more than a day to reach the coast of Epirus, and the risk at sea is greatly reduced.

"Arres!" While everyone was nervously preparing, Cabal found Xu Mo, "I think, we are going to separate, most of the Carthaginian gladiators don't want to go to Greece, they want to go back to Sicily or Carthage. ”

Xu Mo was shocked when he heard this, he suddenly felt that he seemed to be negligent, these gladiators have been following him to fight, it doesn't mean that everyone is willing to follow him to the ends of the earth. If he chooses to go north to meet Spartacus, then these gladiators will fight with the rebels until their death, and they will not complain.

However, now that Xu Mo wants everyone to avoid the Romans and pursue a truly free life. Then many gladiators who still had their homeland preferred to return to their homeland rather than go to Greece with him.

"Cabal, you go and call everyone over, I'll respect everyone's own choice!" Xu Mo was silent for a moment, and then spoke, he couldn't and didn't want to force these companions who shared life and death to follow him all the time.

After counting, the Carthaginian gladiators, numbering more than thirty men, were to return to Sicily with Cabal, where they would find another way to find a larger ship and cross the Mediterranean Sea to the city of Carthage in North Africa. There were also Gallic and Iberian gladiators who had to take a boat to Corsica, but Corsica was further away and the sea journey would be arduous and risky.

The rest of the gladiators were willing to follow Xu Mo to Greece, including Spartans, Thracians, Germans, Macedonians, and a lesser number of Mithridati and other peoples. These people have only two or three people, and they have little confidence in returning to their distant homeland, preferring to live with their familiar companions.

When everyone parted on the sea, many gladiators stood in the bow of the boat, looking at the figures of their distant companions, waving their hands, and for a long time they did not want to turn back and sit down. For these people, the memories of this time will stay with them for the rest of their lives, and if they can return to their hometowns and start a new life, then their lives will not only belong to them, but also to their companions who fought and died for freedom.

……

"Gross!" Lagerseus lay on the edge of the ship and spit out into a lump of mud, and these gladiators were brave and invincible on land, but when they reached the sea, they all became soft-footed shrimp, and they staggered to and fro on the boat, unable to move, but some of the female dependents took care of them without changing their faces.

"Hey, champion gladiator, now I can beat you with one finger!" Xu Mo poked Lagerseus, teasing in a very good mood. He didn't care at all that Claudia next to him glared at him. The experience of the nautical world finally came into play, and Xu Mo could now finally call others a rookie in sailing, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud.

"Cut!" Dina behind her despised Xu Mo with disdain, she still remembered that stormy night, what kind of virtue Xu Mo was, but seeing that Xu Mo rarely had such a childish performance, she endured it and did not demolish him.

"Look, Arres!" After going out to sea, the next evening, Chisionis, who had only one eye but had better eyesight, suddenly pointed to a black spot on the sea in the distance.

"Boss, it's a person!" When the boat got closer, Dinah called out as she pointed to the object on the driftwood.

"You ...... Who is it? A few hours later, the man in black who was rescued by Xu Mo asked weakly.

"Carthaginian? He's a Carthaginian! Xu Mo frowned. Cabal had already left the group, and if it weren't for the presence of a few of their reincarnators on board, the gladiators really couldn't understand the language of the men in black.

"Where did we escape from the Romans, who are you and what happened?" Xu Mo asked Dinah to use the Ice Nectar on the man in black, slightly boosting his physical strength, and then asked.

"I am Luba, a naval warrior of Carthage, from whom we crossed the sea to support the Carthaginian slave rebels in Sicily. Unexpectedly, the Romans of Sicily suddenly appeared with a fully equipped legion. We were defeated, the Carthaginian army in Sicily was wiped out, and now the Roman legions are clearing out the remaining Carthaginian rebels in Sicily! The black-clad warrior recounted his ordeal in fits and starts.

"Reinforcements of the Roman legions in Sicily?" Xu Mo's face became solemn, he stood up from the boat, and looked up at the west, "Kabal......"

"Arres, let's turn back!" Ragseus anxiously shouted, "Let's go pick up Cabal!" ”

"What do you mean?" Xu Mo turned his head to the two champion gladiators of the Spartan Regiment and asked.

"Cabal is our brother, and now that we know the news, we can't leave it alone! Besides, we don't need to fight the Romans, Cabal should still be near the coast of Sicily, pick him up, and then we will go back to Greece. Eumes and Chisonis looked at each other, and both gave up on their plans to return to Greece for the time being.

"Go and ask the others, and if there are those who don't want to go, let them go back to Greece first, especially the women!" Xu Mo pondered for a while and finally made a decision.

Eventually, all the gladiators decided to go to Sicily, and as for the women, most of them had their own gladiators to love, and a few did not want to go back to Greece alone, in which case they did not know what fate would befall them.

"For brothers, for freedom!" Knowing that their companions might be in danger, the gladiators, who were dying from the torture of the waves, regained their spirits, and the roar spread far and wide across the sea.

This uprising team, which pursues a free life, is once again full of fighting spirit for the sake of their comrades who have fought together, and challenges the unknown fate......

(It's a bit hasty, the number of words is not much, and the day after tomorrow will make up more!) ）
