Chapter 27 Adiana's New Model Army (1)

"(Soldiers on both sides) blackmailed, plundered, raided, ruined livestock, food, fodder and property." - Anthony Goodman depicts the Rose War in England in the fifteenth century

When Karabis said this, let alone Marca, even Claudi and even all the centurions shouted. They could not tolerate it. The opponent in front of them was actually a little girl.

"Bastard, Karabis, I asked you to rape her three years ago!" Hebrida raised her big hand and shouted.

"Don't underestimate her!" Karabis yelled. "According to the information sent by Pope's Self-Defense City, there are many hundred-man teams similar to the Roman legion in Bendu's army. She is a smart and cunning person, a colorful poisonous snake. These hundred-man teams that imitate our tactics must be her masterpiece."

Many centurions suddenly started to clamor, "Damn it, we don't care about Karabis, what you have been fooled with her before, or how tacit you cooperated with Pope before, but this is simply unbearable. This is a great insult to the Legion. We are fighting a woman."

"I repeat, she is not an ordinary woman." Karabis was anxious. He tried to correct everyone's perception of Adiana, but it added fuel to the fire.

Claudi immediately stood up when he saw the opportunity and said provocatively, "It's almost thirty years since I've only fought with women in bed, and they always beg for mercy. I think it's the same on the battlefield. The Legion's envoy, Karabis, if you are in front of the princess, you will only be shocked by her beauty and charm and dare not fight her head, then return the command. By the way, I vaguely remember that you were in Xiaoya three years ago. You were the entourage of this princess and you also had a good relationship with her. She was very nice to you. When I cut off your rope, you two were leaning against each other, aren't it? Memories are always sweet." After saying that, Claudi actually sighed on his back, obviously trapped in long-standing memories.

"I didn't expect that, Lord Legion Special Envoy, have you been a follower of our royal family before?" Marcha also took the opportunity to tease, "I understand a little bit. The servant cannot draw his sword to his master."

Even Helen Putina was a little angry and said, "Dear Legion Special Envoy, do I still need to fight under your leadership in this atmosphere of doubt in the whole army? Perhaps when a general present captured the Princess of Bendu named Adiana, you can sit down and reminisce about the past with her, and talk about some sweet past."

Finally, Karabis made a gesture of static all members. Then he announced: "You can go to war, but still let Pope guard the guard. I lead three brigades as central troops. The Governor's army can cover us on both wings, but this time the scale is limited to contact warfare--the enemy is large and we are few, and we must always pay attention to the enemy's ship attacks---Your Excellency Claudi, you must take on the responsibility of protecting the long bridge and the ropes of the bay." Then, he walked to Helenputina and said, "Send Neko to the safe Acropolis, and you three, and now serve as guardians."

In the camp of Bendu people, Adiana sat obediently in front of Mitrada. The Black Sea king's physical condition improved slightly, so the princess handed over the supreme command to her father.

"I had such a stupid idea before. I still hope to negotiate with the insatiable executioners of Rome. We will win this battle no matter what. Even if it is just to avenge the bison, he grew up with me in the wastelands and forests of Xiaoya. I remember that when we were young, I rode on horseback every time we hunted, holding our prey and shouting at him. He followed behind and ran behind me. Even if we fell scars on the gravel, Tucker Schiller still followed behind, shouting, asking me to wait for him, wait for him..." Thinking of this, the voice of the King of the Black Sea actually choked up.

Two lines of tears also slid silently in Adianna's eyes. "Stratonis, before this battle, you must give all the soldiers half a year of rewards to boost their morale." The princess looked at Stratoonis on the other side coldly and said.

Stratonice also sneered, "Of course, I will hand over the money to the Governor of the Copper Shield Army, His Excellency Menander, to carry out this task--and I think when soldiers see women like me, they will be upset and discouraged." At this time, Minander, the young general next to Stratonice, immediately bowed sideways with a flattering expression.

"This time, General Achilaus is the commander of the front line of the entire army. If you want to reward and boost morale, you should also be the Lord Achilaus." Adianna refused to give in.

Then Adiana thought of something and said in a sarcastic tone, "By the way, it is said that the one who commanded the Roman army this time was the slave named Karabis who killed your father Obis and then fled."

Stratonice resisted the flooding in her heart and returned calmly: "It is indeed worthy of being the princess. Even the escaped slaves around her can hold a high position in the city of Rome."

"Okay!" Mitrada in the middle patted his knees and drank, "I'll reward the soldiers this time."

On the altar of the camp, under the swords of several blood-covered priests, a cow lying in a pool of blood, his internal organs were taken out, doing good and bad fortune. Rows of fully armed soldiers, guided by the flag of the sun god Mitra, stepped on the snow, carried the rising winter Chenxu, held the Macedonian spear with a hammer at the bottom, and held a brass shield, and advanced in unison. In the gap between the square formation, teams of light shield scattered soldiers were mixed together and rushed towards the west.

"What a stupid military formation. I didn't expect that the military formation that was completely defeated by the Romans a hundred years ago was still being used stubbornly." Adiana said sadly to the generals such as Achilaus around her on the wooden building in the camp.

"Where is the new model army of Your Excellency the Princess?"

"The new model army has only been trained and formed in twenty hundred men, but I will use it in the most suitable place and wait for my Karabis." A cunning smile suddenly appeared on the corner of Adianna's mouth.

Stepping on the slippery grass with the melting snow, Karabis tilted twice and almost fell down. Helenputina, who was beside her, looked calm and didn't even want to help her. Karabis could only cough awkwardly, take the baton handed over by the soldiers next to her, squinted her eyes, and faced the dazzling sunshine, observing the Bendu Legion opposite her.
