Ancient Rome: From Slaveholder to Supreme Emperor

Chapter 374 The massacre begins

“Is it true that Pompey’s army is infected with the cold?”

On the city wall of Samona, a middle-aged man asked in a deep voice.

“Lord Pechik, the news is true, we have already investigated last night, many of the enemy’s fighters have high fever, no energy, no strength, but for the reliability of the news, we sent another group of scouts this morning to continue. to investigate.”

A thousand commander said in a slow voice.

“There is such a terrible typhoid fever that the entire army was infected?”

Paige said in a low voice.

“It should be a very contagious wind chill

A nobleman beside Pecchik frowned slightly and said slowly.

“The scouts are back, what did they find out?”

Pecchik said lightly, outside the city gate, several soldiers rushed back, and the city gate has been slowly opened.

“Nine Four Seven”

“Report.

Several soldiers hurried up the city wall.

“Say, what did you find out?”

Paige asked in a low voice.

“General, the enemy’s army is moving, all moving, in the direction of the city of Campania:

The scout answered loudly.

“Transfer? Campania? It looks like the cold is true!”

Pechik frowned, murmured softly, and muttered to himself.

“How are they doing?”

Another middle-aged man asked in a deep voice.

Most of the “fighters have no strength, are recovering from illness, and are completely incapacitated!”

The scout’s voice was full of excitement.

“Are you dead?”

Pechek is very concerned about these.

“No, no bodies were found.”

After thinking for a while, the scout said with certainty.

“What? Pechek, do you want to take down Pompey’s army of 20,000 people in one go? Kill them while they are sick!

The middle-aged man’s eyes flashed fiercely, and he said in a deep voice, “This is the best chance for the battered Roman army, don’t miss it!”

“Darno, this is indeed an excellent opportunity, but why not let this army die on its own?”

Pechek is a little more secure.

“The problem is that this army has not died yet. We can’t guarantee that this army can die by itself. Now they are withdrawing towards Campania. If they get recuperation and recover, we will miss the war in vain. God has created a chance for us. If we don’t accept the gift of the gods, we will be spurned by the gods. To take a step back, even if they die, it has nothing to do with us! Our current battlefield is starting to lose, The allies need an absolute crushing victory to improve their prestige and morale, and an absolute victory to reverse this panic situation! It is a great victory to wipe out the enemy’s army of 20,000 in one fell swoop. Such a victory, It will increase the prestige of the allies again, and more people will join us! Therefore, we must go out and stop the enemy halfway and destroy them!!”

Daruno said in a deep voice, his tone was extremely firm, and his attitude was unquestionable.

“However, you should know that they have contracted a highly contagious cold, and in case of war, our soldiers are also infected with this disease, which is extremely detrimental to us!!”

Pechik felt that things were a little unstable and said hesitantly.

“After the war, let all the soldiers clean outside the city and then enter the city. At the same time, pay attention to observe. Whoever has a cold and fever should be isolated directly! In war, some sacrifices are always required!”

Daruno said solemnly: “To attack, such an opportunity cannot be missed, we need an absolute victory!”

“Then attack!”

After hesitating for a long time, Pechik Shen Sheng also made up his mind. Since God gave them such a good opportunity, it would be a pity that they did not fight for words. What he was worried about was that in the spring of next year, Pompey’s 20,000 army Encircle them again, and then he will be Samone’s sinner.

“boom!”

“boom!”

The city gate opened, and the mighty army was out of the city, majestic and high-spirited.

“Chase, kill the Romans!”

“Kill the goddamn Romans!”

“kill!”

Samone’s soldiers have been besieged for almost a month, and they are suffocated. Now they are out of the city to pursue them. They are all murderous and want to vent their inner anger.

“Report, General Pompey, the great army of Samonay is out of town and is after us

Strabo, who was on the march, heard a terrible movement behind him, and a bad premonition rose in his heart. At this moment, an uninfected soldier came to him and reported in panic.

“Damn, how can it be at this time? Impossible, how can they have the courage to fight against my army of 20,000? The news must have spread! Damn, who is it? I only got the news today, they are so much more likely than me It’s too early to know? Impossible! There must be something I can’t think of here!!”

Strabo panicked, desperate, and he felt like he was enveloped in a conspiracy he couldn’t see through.

“Sir, what should we do? Our warriors have no fighting power.

The soldiers were about to cry. They raised all their strength to be able to barely rush their way. What did they use to fight against the terrifying enemy.

“My lord, I’m going ahead, I’m going to Campania to rescue soldiers!

A soldier gritted his teeth and finally made a decision, he couldn’t wait to die here, so he left directly.

“Yes, let’s go to Campania to get rescues!”

“Wait for me, let’s go together!”

“Wait for me…

The soldiers who had already been filled with despair in their hearts mutinied directly, and the soldiers who were not infected immediately began to flee.

“Asshole, leave me alone

Strabo roared frantically, he still planned to rely on these soldiers to resist one or two, and now that they are all gone, doesn’t it mean that this army will perish directly?

“Idiot, I’m only 0.4, don’t stay and wait to die!”

“Death to yourselves!”

The soldiers who had decided to leave didn’t give Strabo any face at all, scolded him, and left.

“Kill!”

“Kill the goddamn Romans!”

“Damn Romans, take your life!”

Samonay’s cavalry quickly caught up, seeing that there was no formation at all, the shape was like scattered sand, and many people were weak, and the army that did not even have weapons, without saying a word, directly killed it.

“puff!”

Warriors without strength and weapons can’t resist at all. Facing spears and daggers, they don’t even have the strength to dodge. They are really lambs to be slaughtered.

Perhaps it was a relief for them.

A massacre begins!
