Roman Slave Owner

Who are you? Why did you betray Mithridates?

Levi asked.

I am a tribal chieftain of the Dandarians, because Mithridates are insolent, present everything, and...

Ottakus recounted what happened that day with elaboration.

Li Wei glanced at Archelaus, and Archelaus said, Well... Mithradati would not be arrogant and rude, but he is extremely cruel.

Mithridates killed his mother, brother and three sons and three daughters, absolutely bloodthirsty.

Ottakus looked at Archelaus in surprise, It turned out to be you?

This made him break out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, he didn't lie just now.

Archelaus used to have a high position in the capital, and was deeply trusted by Mithrada. The relationship between the DPRK and China is complicated, and I don't know how many people secretly communicated with him.

long time no see.

Archelaus said with a smile, Otarchus was extremely brave and famous, and he had met him a few times before.

Although Li Wei was expressionless, he sneered in his heart.

With extraordinary courage and a barbarian, it's probably because this guy didn't run away.

Can you tell me about the situation of the Pontus army? We have some information, but not very detailed.

Li Wei didn't intend to turn his face immediately, but asked about the enemy's intelligence.

Of course, the situation of the Pontus army is very clear. I would like to tell the general everything I know. The Pontus army has infantry...

Ottacus said.

Li Wei and the others listened quietly. There was some discrepancy with what they knew, but the discrepancy was not big. They interrupted occasionally to ask about some situations, and soon they had a general understanding of the situation of the army in Bendu.

Li Wei and the generals looked at each other, and Li Wei sent someone to arrange Ottakus, who was also the first person to betray Mithradati anyway.

Even if it was pretending, he would treat him well out of the intention of buying a horse bone with a thousand dollars.

However, he has already decided to arrange a death mission for him, and let him die.

The next day, Li Wei got up from the bed with bloodshot eyes. Yesterday he personally observed the terrain, discussed the battle meeting with the generals, and gave orders to the military tribune and the chief centurion. Finally, he was busy until late at night. Now the spirit is still a little sluggish.

Today is the day for them to fight the enemy decisively. The right time, location, and people are all on their side. There is nothing to say, just one word-do it.

Caesar brought him face wash, and Li Wei looked at him in surprise.

Why did the sun come out from the west? Why did our eldest son do such a thing?

Li Wei said jokingly.

He remembered that it was either done by the guards or Lysias before, but Caesar had never done such a thing.

Caesar smiled awkwardly, without explaining the reason, but said: General, today is the day of the war, see if you can let me go to the battlefield to kill the enemy and make meritorious service.

What's the matter? Are you not used to staying here?

Levi said.

He was also aware of the secret fight between him and Lucias, but he didn't intervene, but let Caesar solve it by himself.

But now it seems that Lucias has always been firmly suppressing Caesar, and Caesar is about to raise the white flag to surrender.

No, I personally prefer to fight on the battlefield in person rather than stay behind.

Li Wei glanced at Caesar and found that his eyes were clear and he couldn't guess his purpose at all.

Well then, I'll let you become a military tribune later, but let's forget about it today, remember to save your life, otherwise I won't be able to explain to your family.

Levi said.

Thank you General.

Caesar said gratefully.

After speaking, he brought in Li Wei's meal very quickly. Seeing Caesar's diligent appearance, it was difficult for Li Wei to connect him with the famous Caesar the Great.

In any case, it was the breakfast brought by Julius Caesar, although the breakfast was very simple, only a bowl of milk,

One piece of bread and two eggs, but Levi still thinks it tastes good.

Just after eating, I received a report from the guards, and a large number of enemy troops poured out of the camp, apparently ready to fight.

Li Wei immediately ordered the soldiers to prepare for battle.

The gate of the camp was opened wide, and the passionate bugle sounded, and a large number of soldiers rushed out of the gate like a tide.

Hurry up, follow me closely. Spartacus, take care of your people, remember to let them follow the team flag closely, and listen to my orders.

Aetius said to Spartacus.

These Thracians don't understand semaphore at all, and can only rely on their own orders.

Understood, sir.

Spartacus said a little excitedly, this is a big battle that may be nearly 400,000 people.

If he returned to his hometown, he could brag about his experience with them.

Spartacus and the Thracian cavalry followed Aetius out of the camp gate slowly, and then began to form troops under the command of Bayerius.

Stop talking nonsense.

said Aetius to the Thracians.

After Aetius kept reprimanding them, the Thracians finally calmed down.

At this time, a herald conveyed the order of Bayerius, and a group of cavalry bravely scouted in front of the enemy's formation. Soon they found the enemy's chariot and quickly passed the news to the enemy. Notified Levi.

Are they really assigned to the central army formation? Notify the Makaro Island slingers and elite slingers to transfer to the central army formation.

Levi said.

After receiving Li Wei's order, those Macaro Island slingers immediately moved to the central army formation.

Li Wei also kept arranging troops and found that the enemy had placed the barbarian soldiers behind the left and right armies. He arranged four Roman legions and Thracians to the left and right armies to fight against the enemy's barbarian soldiers. .

The Roman legions were deployed in the center against the enemy's center.

The cavalry was deployed on the flanks against the enemy cavalry.

In addition, the reserves of the two legions were left, ready to deal with various situations.

What worries him the most is the cavalry. His cavalry has only about 6,000 men, and their strength is not even 1/3 of that of the enemy.

He doesn't ask them to win, as long as they can contain the enemy.

Li Wei observed the enemy in the middle near the right wing. Those barbarians were wearing all kinds of clothes and holding all kinds of weapons. They didn't even have any armor. They were in a mess, looking like a mob.

Blow the trumpet and order the army to attack.

Levi said.

This is the first time he has commanded an army of nearly 100,000 people. The huge army can't see the end at a glance, which makes him feel powerless.

After such a huge army is deployed in the military formation, the outcome of the war is actually out of his control, and everything depends on God's will.

The passionate trumpets sounded, and the entire military formation slowly moved forward like waves.
