Augustus Road

In the morning light, in the summer camp of Chinodo, Lepidus, who already had a black beard, stood on the outside of the school field on horseback, Brutus stood beside him, and then he shouted to all the soldiers of the two regular legions, saying: Formal peace talks have yet to come, and we must obey the personnel arrangements of the province. Now this financial officer will take you to Antioch. I promise to give each officer and soldier generous Sichuan funds. This is the result of your bravery during this period. He deserves it for his service.

Tens of thousands of people then saluted Lepidus, and then, under the leadership of their respective centurions, lined up and walked towards the newly opened military road in the west. Before leaving, Marco Antony turned back on his horse and said to Lepidus blinked, and the two chief centurions, Hybrida and Polo, walked beside him, and they also left with the army.

"Is this what you used to say, 'mixed with sand'?" Walking in the gray fields in the shade of the mountains, there are fireworks set off by farmers burning wasteland, and a colorful unknown bird flies into the sky. Finally, Lepidus followed its sliding trajectory with great interest. Sabo carefully held the writing pad and asked this person. He still felt a little weird about the definition of the act of releasing two legions.

"It's impossible to stay with me. Why don't we sell some favors, and we have to prepare for going back. Have you noted down the route?" Li Bida began to rub his hands unconsciously again in the cold wind.

"Yes, we will go from southern Armenia via Galaxia, then cross the Hellespont Strait through Bithynia and go to the Temple of Delphi. However, you did not give any clear instructions on how to proceed next. "Saab took out another tablet, examined it, and said.

Lepidus smiled and said nothing, but suddenly asked, "Is that Egyptian girl Neferdidi still left by you in Ptolemy's palace?"

"Hmm." Sabo lowered his head. Kicking the powdery soil back and forth with his toes, he said that although he would divide the commander-in-chief's reward into two installments and send them to Mother Spain. and Neferdidi in Egypt, but he still had no intention of taking his dark-skinned lover back to Rome. "Even I don't want to go to Rome. I just want to go to the coast of Eunonia after the battle." On the island, or in an island colony outside Spain, build a villa with white exterior walls and red bricks, collect some books, collections of love poems, philosophy books, etc., raise pigeons and teal, and have a garden full of flowers and plants. I don’t want to marry any woman in Rome. From your experience, I feel that any marriage with any of them would be for profit.”

"That's fine." Lebida didn't blame his subordinates for their novel ideas. He encouraged Sabokemus and said, you are still very young. If you follow me for another ten years, even if you don't fall in love with me, I will give you considerable honor and assets. By then you can go to Laconi in Sardinia. Yacheng, my wife helped run the place very well. It is a resort suitable for retired soldiers.

The two people just discussed under the dry sky, then got on horseback and walked leisurely into the big camp, where there were 15,000 fully equipped soldiers waiting for Lepidah to give the order to set off. . The spring of the next year has arrived, and they will soon return to the sphere of influence of the Republic along the rough mountain roads of Anatolia. Now, although Lepidus only has two legions without auxiliary numbers, they are still in the army. After reorganization. It has a combat effectiveness that is unmatched by the armies of the same era.

Lepidus canceled all independent auxiliary brigades, whether they were cavalry or light archers, and instead organized them into the "Serapis" legion and the "Cyrenean" legion. Each legion removed ten standard In addition to the infantry brigade, there are also three light shield infantry brigade and two cavalry brigade. In addition, the commander of the legion also has a light shield infantry brigade and a cavalry artillery brigade (twelve crossbows, forty Scorpion crossbows, six wild ass trebuchets, and the accompanying packhorse baggage team) as a mobile force. For Lepidus himself, his subordinates directly administered three cavalry brigades composed of Mattias, one Medic The Czech projection brigade, a Guards mixed brigade composed of Lusitanian heavy infantry and cavalry, and the cavalry brigade attached to the Twelfth Legion of Dusonville are still directly mobilized by Lepidus for the time being.

In this way, the number of the two legions has actually expanded to 8,000.

Because the auxiliary infantry was directly integrated into the regiment for coordinated operations, Lepidus also ordered Sabo to innovate and improve shooting and cavalry tactics, and added new flags. The infantry brigade still used the silver hand and silver ring team logo, while the projectile brigade used gold. Fly team logo, the cavalry brigade uses the team logo of the statue of King Numa, and the flame tongue flag of the regiment centurion has also added different colors. Every soldier must learn to understand military orders from the different-colored flags and complicated whistles. Uploading and issuing, as well as coordination and cooperation of operations.

After listening to her father's passionate introductory speech, Nicole, who was riding a pony standing on the top of Chinodosha Mountain, had eyes shining. She kept looking back, looking at her mother and Elka with excitement. Pa means "Look, my father is so amazing. This is his achievement in the world called Rome, and he will soon agree to take me to that colorful world."

Helenputina looked at her daughter and didn't know what it was like. She wanted to cry because she couldn't let go and it was difficult to dissuade her. However, she felt that her daughter was about to become taller and have her own thoughts, so she turned her face away. She still remembered that when she first met Lepidus, she had raised him in the air and said, "Men are all fragile creatures." But now she had no choice but to take back these words in her heart, just like El Capa As the review said, "Even if men are unchaste, fragile and incompetent, they can change their stance at any time and survive in this world, as tough as weeds. Nicole grew up because she met her father, but when she matured, I will still choose to return to my mother.”

It was obvious that El Capa was trying to comfort himself in the second half of his sentence, but what else could Helen Putina say? She thought of Ella who sank into the cold seabed in Ponti Kabiang. The woman who loved her children unconditionally had no grand words when she chose to sacrifice. Women have always been great because of their personal love, and she also Same.

Among the grass over there, Lepidus slowly walked up with the owl in his hand. The troops had already been mobilized. He completely trusted his subordinate officers, so he came to say goodbye to Helen Putina.

"Are you going to take my daughter away?" Helen Putina, who was riding on the horse, looked at Lebida, her voice was choked up.
