I am the son of Cao thief, start the awakening of the tyrant system

Hearing that someone had found Macrinus, Elagabalus was overjoyed, and hurriedly said to Ganesh,

"Teacher, hurry up and lead the army to capture that slave back!"

But unlike the young Elagabalus, the mature and prudent Gannis was not particularly excited, but had a dignified expression,

"Your Majesty, this matter is a bit strange."

"According to common sense, Macrinus is now deserted by everyone. If he is not far away from us, how could he hide outside Antioch?"

When he said this, Misa, Elagabalus and the others also calmed down.

Yes.

Previously Macrinus left Antioch with only a few thousand men, leaving most of his army behind.

Under such circumstances, the only way to stay away from Elagabalus' army is to save your life.

Why did he hide in the valley outside the city?

"What do you think?"

Misa looked at Gannis and asked in a deep voice.

"I am also not certain."

Gannis shook his head,
"There are only two possibilities."

"Either he is planning to launch a general attack on us."

"Either he planned to take the opportunity to return to Rome while we continued our pursuit eastward. It's just that he didn't expect that someone would find them."

With the weak force of Macrinus, it is impossible to counterattack Elagabalus.

So there is only the second possibility!
"Since that's the case, let him not be allowed to do so!"

The eyes of Elagabalus glared fiercely,

"Only by executing him can I become the real emperor!"

"Elagabalus is right, Ganesh, I will leave this matter to you, make sure to kill him!"

Although he is old, Misa still has a charming face, and his face is full of fierceness!
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty and Madam, I will definitely take them down!"

Gannis nodded heavily.

……

After getting the information about Macrinus, Gannis did not hesitate to gather all the Roman soldiers in the city first.

Just in case, he sent several other scouts to the valley where Macrinus was located to spy.

Sure enough, like the clues provided by the Roman citizen, Macrinus and his thousands of soldiers were stationed in the valley.

Other than that, nothing unusual.

Gannis couldn't help being overjoyed, and immediately issued a military order to attack Macrinus.

In order not to startle the enemy, prevent someone in the city from tipping off Macrinus.

It wasn't until night fell that Gannis led the army to leave Antioch and head towards the valley where it was located.

The next morning.

He led the army and came out of the valley.

Looking at the barren valley in front of him, Gannis said in a low voice to the scouts beside him,

"Do you understand the situation in this valley?"

"My lord, we have already asked the locals in Antioch about the situation of this valley."

The scout replied,
"There is only one road in this valley, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack."

"understood."

Ganis nodded with an excited smile on his face.

For him, such a terrain is simply convenient for him to lead the army and wipe out all of Macrinus here.

He glanced at the situation outside the valley, thought for a moment, and told an officer beside him,

"Leave [-] soldiers for you to guard the exit of the valley. Without my order, no one is allowed to enter!"

"As ordered, General!"

In order to take down Macrinus this time, Gannis brought a total of [-] soldiers.

Leaving 2 people guarding the entrance of the valley, he personally led the remaining 5 people towards the valley.

The valley is similarly desolate, as far as the eye can see is the vast Gobi gravel, not even a piece of green.

The shape of this valley is a bit like a jug, the entrance is extremely narrow, but the inside is quite wide.

After walking for less than an hour, Gannis came to the hinterland of the valley.

He could clearly see that there were tents set up in the open space in the distance.

The flags flying around the tent represent Macrinus!
Sure enough it was him!

Gannis suppressed the excitement in his heart, his expression became ferocious,

"Form formation and prepare to attack!"

As long as Macrinus is completely eliminated, Elagabalus will be able to ascend the throne and become the real emperor!
And at that time, Ganes, who is the adoptive father, guardian and teacher of Elagabalus, can also enjoy the glory and wealth!
The well-trained Roman soldiers quickly assembled into a formation, ready to launch a fatal blow to Macrinus!
However, before Gannis gave an order, a loud laugh came suddenly,
"Ganes, you eunuch, long time no see!"

Hearing someone yelling at him, Gannis looked up subconsciously.

I saw a burly man riding a horse, who appeared not far in front of him at some unknown time.

Who is it but Macrinus? !

Gannis was startled, how did he find himself?
But he calmed down in an instant.

So what if Macrinus found himself?

I have [-] elites in hand, and [-] soldiers outside the valley to support them.

Thinking of this, Gannis stood up boldly and said with a sneer,

"Macolinus, I didn't expect you to hide here like a mouse."

"You lose all the face of the Roman Empire!"

"It's a pity that no matter how hard you hide it, I still found it."

"Do you think you will give up resistance yourself, or wait for me to kill all your people?"

Facing Gannis' threat, Macrinus smiled nonchalantly,

"Do you know, I heard His Majesty the Emperor say something a few days ago, and I think it makes sense."

"The best hunters often appear as prey."

Gannis didn't know who His Majesty the Emperor was, but he could hear something was wrong from Makrinus' words.

"You mean to say, you are a hunter?"

"good."

"Haha, it's really ridiculous."

Gannis sneered and said,
"You only have 5 soldiers in total, and I have [-]! I want to see how you hunt me!"

"His strength may not be enough, what if I add mine?"

A deep voice sounded again.

A young man in luxurious clothes slowly appeared beside Makrinus, looking at Gannis with a sneer on his face.

Although Gannis didn't know this young man, he could tell from the Shah-style attire that he was wearing that he was a Shah man!

His countenance changed, and he glared at Macrinus,
"You lowly slave, how dare you collude with the rest of the barbarians?"

The Roman Empire and the Parthian Empire have been fighting for hundreds of years, and it can be said that they have a deep hatred for each other!

Macrinus asked the Parthians to intervene, which is tantamount to committing a big taboo!

"Who told me that I colluded with the rest of the barbarians?"

Macrinus smiled disdainfully,

"I just made a covenant with the Dragon Empire!"
