Roman Slave Owner

Nobanus sent an army to try to retake Capua, but they came too late.

Li Wei has firmly controlled Capua, and Capua's defense measures are really perfect, not only with a large number of ditches and spikes, but also with tall and strong walls.

Originally, these were used against Sura, but unexpectedly they were used on them.

Seeing that he couldn't break through the city wall, and the news of the defeat had already come from the front line, the lieutenant general didn't want to fight and started to flee with his soldiers.

Have they all gone?

Levi said.

That's right, it looks like we've held Capua.

A smile appeared on Dolabella's face.

There are still some enemies in the city, it's time to eliminate the remaining enemies.

Levi said.

That's right.

So Li Wei and Dolabela joined forces to carry out the final killing of the enemies in the city.

Although there were some twists and turns, in the end they succeeded in capturing Capua.

Not long after, news from the front line came.

Due to Livi's defection, Nobanus was defeated.

The enemy killed and injured more than 7,000 people, and captured more than 10,000 people.

Nobanus fled to the barracks, but found a fire in the barracks, causing him to curse at Livi, and finally had to escape on horseback.

Outside the city of Capua, a large number of Roman soldiers lined up to welcome Sulla.

Li Wei and Dolabela stood in front, and many officers were in a good mood.

However, there are also some people who are uneasy. The administrator Gliuss has a look of resentment. He is obviously Li Wei's man, so why did he not know about it until the war broke out.

Fortunately, Li Wei didn't abandon him, and pulled him here afterwards.

Those veterans were even more anxious. You must know that many people were still offering advice for Nobanus a few days ago. In a blink of an eye, Capua was sold to Sura by Li Wei. dead.

I don't know if those things will reach Sura's ears, so a group of people surrounded Li Wei and fawned desperately, even old Tullius was no exception.

As Capua's leader, Li Wei certainly didn't want Capua to suffer too much damage, so he had already given them a guarantee to ensure the safety of their lives and properties.

Not long after, he saw a group of officers walking towards this side, the leader was tall, with fair skin and some pimples on his face.

Hahaha, this must be General Li Wei. As soon as I saw you, I knew you must be a young hero.

As soon as she saw Li Wei, Sura laughed and said, and then hugged her hard.

This victory is an extremely important turning point. His military strength will exceed that of Rome, and he will occupy Campania, an important grain-producing area and strategic location.

Since then, he has entered the active offensive phase, while Rome has fallen into the defensive phase.

General Sura is too polite, how can I deserve the title of general.

Li Wei said with a smile, this is generally used to address the triumphant general.

Pompey on the other side has a strange expression, it seems that Su La also called him that.

You deserve it! You deserve it! You should be the first in this battle!

Sura laughed and said, if it weren't for Li Wei's defection, this battle might have been lost, let alone capture Capua. At this time, he felt even more lucky.

Unlike other generals who claimed to rely on their own abilities to win the battle, Sulla always claimed that he was able to win the battle because of luck.

Later, he added the Latin word Felix (the one favored by luck) to his own name, so that his full name became Lucius Cornelius Sulla Felix.

Li Wei was polite, and then introduced others to him.

This is Pompey.

Sulla said to a handsome young man.

Li Wei had noticed Pompey a long time ago, and the first person who could be introduced by Sura was the legendary handsome young man with a green hat, Pompey. Pompey is the kind of person who can rely on his face for a living, but his talent is far superior to others that kind of person.

He held three triumphal ceremonies in his life, respectively because of the victories in Africa, Europe and Asia. Even in the history of Rome, it is the only one. Known as the son of Rome, he is very popular with the Roman people.

He and Caesar are good friends. Caesar first gave Pompey a cuckold, and Pompey was not to be outdone, and married Caesar's daughter as his wife. The two are not only the alliance of the three giants of Rome, but also rivals for the power of Rome. They love and kill each other all their lives, so how can they be radiant with each other.

I have always admired your name for a long time, and it is really a pleasure to meet you.

Li Wei hugged Pompey fiercely and said.

Pompey was a little surprised by Li Wei's enthusiasm. He smiled and said, You are also very good. At your age, I am not as good as you.

Li Wei pulled up the three legions entirely by his own ability, but he relied on his family's property, and Li Wei had just come of age, younger than him, and he was judged among them.

You are all young heroes of Rome. I think you are like the twin stars of Rome. You can make contributions to our Rome and open up territories.

Sura laughed and said.

He just said it casually, but he didn't know that it really became the titles of Li Wei and Pompey. The two opened up the territory for Rome and made great achievements.

The two sides introduced their respective personnel. He didn't want Capua to be too damaged, so he shared a lot of credit with Glius and the elders.

Those elders were extremely grateful. They were able to stand on the victor's side when the city was broken. They really owed Mrs. Li Wei's affection.

Sura didn't know what was going on, but Kapua voluntarily surrendered, and he was very happy in his heart, and he also comforted them with good words.

In order to flatter Su La, they spent a lot of money and held a grand banquet to entertain Su La, in which Li Wei's sugar and famous wine were the protagonists.

These things are all admired by those generals, and they have really entered the upper class.

The Battle of Capua shocked the whole of Rome and even the Mediterranean world, and Livi's defection made the Roman Senate panic.

After this battle, Sulla not only occupied Capua, an important Italian city, but also only needed to go north along the Appian Way to reach Rome in a few days.

Moreover, Sulla's strength has greatly increased, surpassing Rome.

After hearing the news, Scipio immediately led his army to retreat and entered the stage of strategic defense.

On the bustling streets of Capua, a large number of dressed pedestrians hurry.

This includes not only the Capuans, but also some Roman soldiers.

Half a month passed, and Capua quickly recovered its calm. Under Li Wei's insistence, Sura only liquidated a few people, and even promised to exempt Capua from taxes for ten years.

As soon as the news came out, the whole Capua was full of cheers.

In this difficult war-torn era, with the explosion of food prices and the disruption of the order of life, everyone has to work hard to survive. The reduction of taxes undoubtedly greatly relieved the pressure on them.
