Chapter 28 Fire Escape (Part 2)

The Internet was cut off last night, and I won’t be deducted today, and I will update three times.

———————————————————

"Sincere singer, I have heard that you and Pompeii have a secret relationship. Your two brothers, Pascius and Philip are your only relatives in this world, right?" Adiana turned around, "Stratonis, I will give you another last chance. First, don't continue to fight me; second, hand over the six thousand Tarant's military funds you have. Otherwise, I will let you and your family die in the stinky ditch, and go back wherever your dirty and humble family comes from."

Stratonic's eyes burst out with sparks, "It was your father who possessed my body, loved me, and promoted me to the noble lady of Bendu. Since I came into the venomous snake nest of the Mitra family, I have seen how many princes, concubines and noble ladies died inexplicably. The palaces of Bendu Kingdom floated on the corpses and blood? Do you really think I can live until now, just rely on my face? Don't forget, in this war, you were in the camp of the empire, and I heard that the Karabis who killed my father, in the camp of the Romans, my goal is to deal with you two at the same time."

Adiana's eyes smiled into two new moons again, and she said contemptuously: "Maybe, the two-eared pottery jar is destined to not win me as his former master, but I believe there is no big problem for him to defeat you, and Minander, who is sympathetic with you." After saying that, Adiana looked at Stratonics coldly for a while, and then took an execution gesture with her hands, and left with a silver bell-like laughter.

The indigo warrior Biduita next to Adianna also politely saluted the princess and followed the princess.

After the princess left, two young and beautiful officers were turned away from the camp. They were Pasius and Philip whom Adianna said. They whispered to their sister: "Minand is ready."

"Okay, as the battalion officers of the Copper Shield Army, you must faithfully help Minander break the Roman camp. When we enter the city of Ponticabion, we will launch military advice and force the current emperor to execute the little bitch like a wild cat. Then the Bendu Empire belongs to you, my dear brothers." Stratonice touched the handsome faces of his younger brothers, "You two are so much like fathers when they were young. So far, the scene of my father's tragic death often wakes me from nightmares. It's time for us to take revenge and get what we deserve."

"Do you have to kill Adianna? Sister, you have to know that she is so beautiful, why can't she become our brother's forbidden body?" Pascius couldn't help but say it.

Stratonice slapped his younger brother hard, "Then you might as well keep a poisonous cobra on your bedside. Don't be stupid!"

That night, when the wind was getting colder and the sun set in the sunset, the Bendu Copper Shield Army in front of the car began the first round of attacks. They deliberately placed Adianna's new model army in the rear. This was also the decision made by Minand after listening to the suggestions of the two brothers Passius. The new model army was not annoyed. They comfortably arranged a team to sit down and eat and rest under the orders of the centurions (mostly Pompei's deserters).

The attack of the Copper Shield Army on the chariot formation was indeed as unsuccessful as Adianna expected. The Roman army's throwing stones and javelins were like rainstorms. Karabis's order was to not worry about consuming ammunition. Anyway, there were too many supplies and pack horses, and they threw them out without any target. The Copper Shield Army really used copper shields. They also stacked layers of shields like the Romans, stretching out the spears from the gaps between the shields, slowly

Moving towards the enemy's position clumsyly, but in an instant, countless "little suns" rose in the Roman chariot array. They were burning stone bullets wrapped in asphalt and resin. They smashed into the dense copper shield army formation with a series of beautiful lights of death, and instantly burst into huge fire groups. However, the copper shield army, which had been fighting for a long time, walked through the vertical embankment regardless of casualties, and walked one after another, preparing to break into the chariot array and fight with the Romans.

But at the end of each vertical embankment, it was blocked by a baggage truck connected by iron ropes. On the vehicle were military slaves who shot with a belly bow and a stone-casting cross. Behind the vehicle were Roman soldiers who also held a spear and poked the copper shield army on the vertical embankment. They were also two or three people holding a very long guy. This was easily found in the Bosphorus Armory. Pop found a lot of roots in advance, tied short blades, iron nails and other things on it, and asked the soldiers to stand on the vehicle, slapped the head and shoulders of the copper shield army from top to bottom. The soldiers who were shot and swept the copper shield army could not stand firm, so they could only fall into the trench full of thorns and broken pottery pieces, screams and moans everywhere.

In the end, Minander had to order a retreat.

The Romans' chariot formation also became silent. Karabis followed the arranged baggage workshop, looking around with the raging firelight in front of the trench from time to time, and then found Hebrida and Pope, "We must be prepared to withdraw the acropolis and take all the mules and horses away."

"If you retreat like this, you will be pursued by the enemy." Pope said worriedly.

Hebrida didn't say anything, sat on the ground without any action, and did not agree or protest. He was still angry at the old guy Arminius's death without authorization.

Karabis was also silent, and then said, "Be prepared for retreat first."

After arranging the alert forces, the remaining 100 teams of Rome sat in the carriage formation, and the mules, horses and precious supplies were also ready. They were not far from the Acropolis. When the time came, they ran in in one go.

The night was deep and the wind was howling. The figures of the Bendu Copper Shield Army camp were moving around and the bonfire was bright. They must be preparing the equipment for attacking the toughest, preparing to set off the temporary chariot formation when dawn came.

Time was lost bit by bit, until a soldier told Karabis that a strange black shadow appeared on the coast. Karabis leaned over and saw that there seemed to be a black city wall on the sea, moving quickly in the roar of the sea. His mind felt hot, "This is the fleet of the Bendu people, coming to sail into the bay between the Acropolis and the city of Pontikabien, to separate the connection between the two cities!" Just as he was about to let everyone retreat, his hair was blown to the other side by the wind, and his left ear was not leaking! The wind direction changed!

He snatched the torches of the soldiers next to him and ran through the entire position. "All the staff poured tinder oil on the baggage truck, and then piled up watered hay and asphalt!"
