Roman Slave Owner

How many troops did they dispatch?

Scipio asked.

It is very likely that there will be more than eleven legions, and the number of cavalry will not be less than six thousand.

Saidoriu said with a sullen face.

Hearing this, Scipio felt dizzy?

Now his army is only 6 legions, and the number of enemies is almost twice that of his, so how can he fight.

Due to Leo's defection, Sura's strength has soared much higher than in history, completely widening the gap with Scipio.

Didn't the Lucanians and the Samni say they would send troops? What are they doing?

Scipio couldn't help but growl.

They said that at least four legions of Sura were watching them, and they couldn't move around.

Sato said dissatisfied.

Then wait until we lose to Sura and the others before going to die?

Scipio couldn't help but sneered.

They all knew what the Lucanians and the Samni were thinking, and they were timid, hoping to wait for them and Sulla to lose out and then come out to pick up the bargain.

But is there such a good thing? Since the defeat of Capua, the morale of his army has been extremely low, how can he fight like this.

What should we do, that's the strength of eleven legions, how about retreating first?

Nashika frowned and said.

We must not retreat, Rome is behind us! As long as we hold here, they will have nothing to do with us.

Sertorius said angrily, he didn't expect Naka to be such a waste, he didn't even fight and said to retreat.

What if they dig and build a wall, surround our city, and then attack Rome with the main force.

Nashika countered bluntly.

This is a very common method of combat in Rome. When encountering a strong city, the Roman army will dig soil outside the city to build ditches and walls, and then surround the city and besiege it for a long time. At the end of Ming Dynasty, Houjin also used this method. This method has dealt with the Ming Dynasty.

Don't worry, the new Roman legion has been formed by then, and we don't have to be afraid of them at all.

Saidoriu said with a sneer.

Nobanus had already returned to Rome to form a new legion, and when he passed by here, he scolded Scipio severely.

The Lucanians and the Samni will definitely send troops. Sulla will not allow such Marian supporters to exist.

Sedoliu said.

Look, what's that?

At this time, a soldier beside him said.

Scipio and the others looked over and found a team of more than thirty cavalry slowly approaching.

Who are they?

Nashika asked.

No one could answer his question, and when the envoys of this team came to the front of the city wall, a cavalryman quickly revealed their identities.

They were Sulla's special envoys, and they came to discuss peace under Sulla's order.

Hearing this, Scipio, Nashika and the others looked at each other in blank dismay. What do they mean?

After entering the city, he explained his purpose of coming, and Hadrianus waited for their decision with great respect.

Do you have any conspiracy to negotiate peace with us at this time?

Nashika couldn't help asking.

General Sulla admires the Scipio family very much, and he does not want the two sides to meet each other. Now that the culprits Marius and Cinna are dead, General Sulla believes that there is no need to let Rome suffer from war.

Hadrianus said.

Scipio and Nasica were greatly moved. The one who hated Sulla the most was Marius, followed by Cinna and Capo. It was they who organized an army and captured Rome while Sulla was on an expedition to the East.

Of course, Sertorius was among them. In fact, they didn't have any deep hatred with Sura.

If Sulla could make peace with Rome, no matter what Sulla had planned, it would do them no harm.

No, I absolutely do not agree.

Sertorius said angrily, This is definitely Su La's conspiracy. How many relatives and friends of Su La and his subordinates have been killed by us, how can such blood feud be easily given up. Su La must have other ideas!

This is a deep blood feud between you and has nothing to do with us.

Scipio and his son added a sentence in their hearts almost at the same time.

Okay, you can go down, let's discuss this matter first.

Scipio spoke to Hadrianus, and at the same time ordered his board and lodging to be arranged.

Seeing Scipio and his son, who appeared to be calm on the surface, Sertorius dared not be careless.

Scipio is a treacherous old man, and he may be betrayed by him at any time.

Scipio, we must not agree to his request. This must be Sulla's conspiracy.

Sedoliu said.

Whether it's a conspiracy or not, we have to get in touch. And we need time, we can pretend to negotiate peace, and they will naturally retreat in winter, when the new Roman legion has also successfully trained.

Scipio said with a smile.

Sedo pays attention to the sentence mmp, which is actually a good way to delay, but he doesn't believe this unreliable father and son.

Let's discuss how to negotiate peace. I think the best way is to procrastinate. If we really can't procrastinate, we can raise some conditions that they cannot accept.

Scipio said.

At this time, he thought of a bastard, a bastard who made him extremely embarrassed, should he be a hostage.

This is where you live. We will put away your weapons and horses for you first, and we will return them to you when you return. You'd better not run around these days. If you cause any misunderstanding and you are caught as a spy All right.

A centurion placed these cavalry in several dormitories in the barracks, and then said to them coldly.

We understand that we will never run around, please rest assured.

Hadrianus said with a smile.

After the centurion left, Hadrianus and the others settled down.

Looking at the guards outside the door, their expressions were a little dignified.

In addition to conveying the intention of peace talks, they also have a special mission.

It's just that they are always skeptical about the success of the special mission.

At noon, some soldiers came here with a lot of food, but soon there was a noise inside.

Bah! What is this? It's so unpalatable!

Why is there no sugar in this porridge, do you look down on us?

Wine, why don't you even have any wine!

...

Hearing the voice inside, the centurion walked in with a sullen face.

what happened?

I don't know, they think the food is not good.

Said a soldier innocently.

I said, why is your bread so unpalatable? Can't you add some sugar to it?

And wine, we want good wine, the kind in Levi's Hotel, or at least Greek wine!

...

The cavalry shouted loudly, seeing this, the centurion had a sneer on his face.

Is white sugar something these poor ghosts can afford?

Let alone them, even he can't afford it.
