Roman Slave Owner
Chapter 366 Cavalry War
Luculus told me yesterday that he does not want to compete for the position of Ombudsman.
Cicero said.
Well, there are two candidates. One is Dolabella, and the other is Caesar's uncle Kota. Which one do you think is better. We have very few resources, and at most we can only spend all our resources on one person. .”
Emilia glanced at Caesar and said.
Caesar had two uncles who were elected consuls, and one of them died of illness, and Caesar was the priest who succeeded him.
Caesar smiled and stood up, I support my uncle Corta. My uncle is highly regarded by the Romans. They have introduced a large number of laws and are very popular with Roman citizens and knights. As long as my uncle becomes the censor, I will Uncle is willing to serve his wife and the Li Wei family with all his strength.
I support Dolabela. I have fought side by side with Dolabella. I can trust his character.
An elder stood up and said.
I also support Dolabella, he has a great reputation.
I support Dolabella.
...
Seeing one senator after another came out to support Dolabella, Caesar was embarrassed.
He knew the reason very well. Dolabella had fought side by side with them many times, and they were very familiar with Dolabella, so of course they were willing to support people they knew well.
On the contrary, Cotta tended to the civil service system, a famous family of scholars in Rome, and was quite alienated from these rough people under Li Wei.
Seeing that everyone's opinions were so unanimous, Emilia felt a moment of hesitation.
In fact, she likes Keta, but now she doesn't know what to do.
What is your opinion, Cicero?
Emilia asked.
I support... Dolabella.
Cicero frowned.
He was a little hesitant at first, but so many elders support Dorabe, what can he do.
His position is not stable, many elders do not admire him, he does not want to be against so many elders in this matter.
Emilia was silent for a while, and finally said helplessly: Well then, let Dolabella be our candidate for the inspector.
Caesar couldn't help clenching his fists. How could that old rascal Dolabella compare with his uncle?
His uncle's reputation, whether among citizens or among knights, was excellent, and it was simply not comparable to Dolabella's.
What a pity that so many people have come to poor conclusions.
Caesar was silent for a while, and finally said nothing.

The sky in the Alps is as blue as it has been washed, and the mountains in the distance are covered with snow that never melts all year round.
Looking at the rushing Danube not far away, Li Wei said to an Illyrian elder beside him: Is this kind of terrain all around here? Can the army go north to Germania from here?
The elder was a Roman who immigrated here. He was about forty years old. He was not tall, his hair was already gray, and he looked extremely shrewd.
Returning to the governor, it is impossible for the army to go north from here. There are such high mountains everywhere here that vehicles cannot pass through. When the Teutons and Cimbri went south, they first went to the Gaul region, and then went south.
The elder said respectfully.
Li Wei nodded, no wonder the Roman Empire's attacks on Germania were all launched from Gaul.
The most difficult part of the ancient army's expedition to the outside world was the transportation of materials, not to mention not only climbing the mountains but also crossing the Danube River, which was simply a nightmare.
This made him stop thinking about going up the Danube River, and it seemed that he could only fight through Gaul honestly.
It's just that the capricious character of the Gauls gave him a headache. It's fine if you surrender, and you will rebel after you surrender.
In Li Wei's view, the westward migration of the Helavesians and Sequanis is a good thing, so that he can easily occupy these areas and then cross the Rhine from these areas.
However, if you want to expedition to Germany, you must have a stable rear. Li Wei thinks that you should do everything possible to weaken the strength of the Gauls.
In order to prevent them from causing any demon moths behind at a critical moment.
This war is a good opportunity. He can wipe out the Helavesians and Helvetsians in one fell swoop, making preparations for the unification of Gaul in the future.
After making the decision to intervene in this war, Li Wei returned to Shannan Gaul and ordered the army to go to Shanbei Gaul.
A large number of news from the front continued to come back, and the situation of the Aedui people was very bad.
Facing the attacks of the two major tribes and other small tribes, the Aedui lost their cities and territories, and retreated steadily.
Li Wei knew that his chance to make a move had come, so he went to Naipo City, the capital of Gaul in the north of the mountain, in person.
After learning that Li Wei had come to Nappo City, the Aedui sent people to ask for help again, and their messenger was still Dunorex, whom he hated.
Dear Governor, on behalf of all the Aedui people, I sincerely implore you to send troops to help. We agree to all your conditions, but because our city is surrounded by water, we cannot deliver the supplies you need. As long as you As soon as your army arrives, all the supplies will be delivered immediately.
Dunorex begged.
Really? This is really difficult for me.
Li Wei took it for granted.
If it was anyone else, he would have readily agreed, but he always disliked Dunorex, and he could only think that the Aedui had sent the wrong person.
We have deposited 2 million dinars in a bank in Naipo City. You can send someone to withdraw it at any time, sir.
Dunorex felt that his heart was bleeding, and now Aedui's supplies were extremely short.
In order to deal with the Helvetians and the Helavesians, spring plowing was delayed in some places.
Now they need to hand over these life-saving supplies to the Romans, which made him hate Li Wei to the extreme.
Very well, then, for your brother's sake, I will send troops. Where are the provisions you gave us?
Levi asked.
Bibrakd City.
Dunorex said.
Li Wei couldn't help but frowned. The city of Bibrakde is also the French Autun of later generations. Isn't this their capital? The Aedui are really careful.
Okay, I'll send troops right away. By the way, the Helvetians and Sequanis have left their territory. Do you have any objections to us Romans occupying their territory?
Levi said.
What did you say? You're taking their territory?
Dunorex said angrily.
What's the matter, can't it?
There was a dangerous light in Li Wei's eyes.
What a bunch of greedy Romans! Dunorex thought.
Are they not satisfied that they have taken Northern Gaul?
Wulfar is about to lead an army of half a million to cross the Rhine, or you want to deal with the German army.
Li Wei said with a sneer.
We have no problem.
Dunorex took a deep breath and said.
It's fine if you don't have an opinion.
Li Wei said with a smile.
After Dunorex left, Li Wei's expression changed.
What a stupid Gaul, who is about to perish and still treat those who sent troops to help you like this.

On the vast plain, an Armenian cavalry of more than 30 people is galloping.
They were the reconnaissance team sent by Li Wei, and Li Wei sent a large number of cavalry to scout around, and this was one of them.
As their cavalry captain, little Memius felt a heavy responsibility.
At such a young age, his face was extremely serious, observing the surrounding scene from time to time.
Not long after, he suddenly saw a large amount of smoke rising in front of him.
No, that's our village, there must be Helvetians attacking there.
At this moment, a Gaul cavalryman said anxiously that this Gaul cavalryman was a guide sent by the Aeduians and was very familiar with this place.
Let's go and have a look.
Little Memius said, and went to the village under the guidance of the guide.
Came to a small slope, here just can see the village condescendingly.
This is a small village of more than 200 households, and most of the houses have been engulfed in flames.
There were at least a hundred cavalrymen in that village, and besides that, there were more than a hundred infantrymen who were driving the carriage and were loading all kinds of supplies into the carriage.
It's a Helavesian.
The Gaul cavalry said angrily.
They allowed the Heracians to pass through their territory, but the Heracians robbed them of a large amount of supplies, which made them hate the Heracians.
We have to find a way to catch their tongues and get out their intelligence.
Little Memius said that after he finished speaking, he glanced at the Armenian cavalry, quickly picked out a few cavalry, and then asked the Gaul cavalry to act with him.
On the vast plain, an endless army is advancing.
Li Wei's army finally stepped out of Gaul in the north of the mountains and entered the territory of Aeduhibang.
After marching for two days, they still did not encounter the enemy, but Li Wei was not in a hurry.
Under the eagle flag, Li Wei was talking to several lieutenants.
At this moment, little Memius came running up on his horse.
Reporting to the governor, we found that the enemy's troops are attacking a village ahead. After our interrogation, there is a tribe of the Helavesians nearby. This tribe has more than 1,000 cavalry, more than 8,000 infantry, and more than 40,000 civilians. , which is 15 Roman miles ahead of our army.
Little Memius said.
Very well, take out the map.
Levi said.
Soon someone took out the map, and Little Memius pointed out the enemy's position on the map, so that Li Wei had a general understanding of the enemy's situation.
Belieus, Annius, Glius...
Li Wei called six names, I order you to lead your troops to encircle and wipe out this enemy. Belieus is the leader in this battle, and everything must obey his orders.
As you order, my lord governor.
As ordered.
...
All the generals said one after another, Belieus was even more overjoyed, he felt that he was more valued.
By the way, call our Aedui friends, they are indispensable for this kind of thing.
Li Wei seemed to think of something and said.
After entering the territory of the Aedui, Li Wei also incorporated some Aedui troops and let them fight with the army as auxiliary troops.
After receiving this order, Dunorex was not at all happy.
In fact he hated the Romans, and it was the arrival of the Romans that made his brother's prestige surpass his, making him less and less likely to be King of the Aedui.
Moreover, Li Wei's ambitions for Gaul's territory made him extremely vigilant, whether Li Wei would take action against other Gauls after annexing the territories of the Helavesians and Sequanis.
Will do! Most definitely! The greed of the Romans for territory knew no bounds!
Thinking of this, he felt restless.
My lord, all the warriors are ready.
At this time, one of his personal guards came over and said.
An inexplicable light flashed in Dunorex's eyes, and then whispered a few words to him.
The guard's face changed, My lord, it's not good to do this.
If there is anything wrong, just do it like this, and I will take care of it if something goes wrong.
Dunorex said.
The face of the personal guard kept changing, and finally agreed, and then quickly left the brigade, galloping in the direction of the Helavesians on horseback.
Dunorex sneered, it's not good for the Romans to be too strong, it's better for them to suffer heavy losses.
The legion that received the task quickly left the main army, and then set off quickly.
Belieus was full of ambition, and he felt that he was about to make a great contribution.
At this moment, he received news that the Helavesians seemed to have spotted them and were retreating.
How can this be done? Annius, you and I will lead our cavalry to stop them.
Belius said.
As ordered.
Annius said quickly.
So more than 6,000 cavalry left here, including Aedui cavalry, Armenian cavalry, Galassi cavalry and a small number of Roman cavalry.
More than 6,000 cavalry turned into a torrent and quickly chased forward.
It didn't take long for them to find thousands of Helavesian cavalry ahead of them.
Facing enemies far outnumbering them, they still picked up their lances.
Because their loved ones were retreating, they couldn't let the enemy catch up to them.
Belieus thought for a while, and then whispered to Annius: Lead 3,000 cavalry to bypass them. Don't let the enemy's army run away. Let me deal with it here.
All right.
Annius said.
So he led 3,000 Armenian cavalry to leave here. Seeing this, the Helavesian cavalry was in a commotion, and some Helavesian cavalry planned to leave here.
At this moment, a burst of passionate horns and horns sounded.
The remaining cavalry on the Roman side raised their weapons and began to charge.
This forced the Helavesian cavalry to stop, and under the order of their leader, they also began to charge.
The ground began to shake, dust was flying, and sharp spear points were everywhere. More than 4,000 cavalrymen began to fight on this vast land.
One cavalryman after another was killed off his horse, and then trampled to death by the horses charging back and forth.
After two rounds of charging, what made Belieus look ugly was that he found that the losses of the Helavesian cavalry were only a little more than theirs.
You must know that they are facing an enemy three times their own. Could it be that the Galacian cavalry and Roman cavalry under their own are so useless?
At this moment, he heard a cry from behind.
He looked back and found that hundreds of cavalry had fled here.
