Chapter 28 Dunorex (1)

"When the whole world is filled with people, the final remedy is war, which makes everyone either win or die." - Hobbes's Leviathan

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

So he saw the chief Aidui muttering something, but Lesgus said seriously: "Donorex will sooner or later have such an end. He relied on your power to take over the tribe's tariffs and wheat transactions at a low price, raised a large number of ruined and refugees as his private cavalry. He also married a woman from Helveti as his wife, and married several sisters to various neighboring countries - Dear Deviach, wake up. If Lord Caesar had not come here and went to war with the Helveti, our tribe had long become a vassal of Helveti under the instigation of your brother, and could you still keep the crown on your head? It would have been usurped by your brother, otherwise why would your brother be so hostile to the Romans? Is it really for the benefit of the tribe, but for his personal power."

"But I still have to protect him, because he is my younger brother, and he was born in this world with the blood of the same mother!" Deviach was angry and embarrassed, and pulled out his dagger and slashed it on the table, saying.

"The cute Dui tribe is not your family!" Lesgus also became angry, and the whole scene was suddenly tense.

"Calm down, everyone, I came here at the request of the Chief Deputy General, and now there is a chance to remedy everything. That is, go to the Santuni area with us, and take advantage of the situation before I can do something stupid. I confess to the Governor that everything will be treated with forgiveness." At this time, Li Bida stretched out his hand and was willing to act as a peacemaker.

Looking at Li Bida's sincere eyes, Deviach was skeptical. He kept saying that his younger brother had committed such a great crime and did not dare to expect Caesar's understanding. However, Li Bida comforted him: All legions admire your fairness and enthusiasm. Thank you for your always help to the Expeditionary Force. Besides, I heard that the guide who is now around Caesar is also a naturalized citizen of Gaul. He has had a lifelong friendship with you. In addition, I personally would go to win over the Alobrocs tribe and plead with you. You and your Lingdi will not be in danger. The letter from the Governor only expressed his concern for Lingdi to continue to participate in the war, saying that his subordinates were not particularly obedient and had dismissed his military power.

Deviach was determined to give it a try, and he held it with Li Bida's hand and said that I would fulfill my promise immediately and go to Santunny with you and the Deputy General. Lesgus left it here and immediately let our tribe send a market day military ration. In addition, I will send someone to quickly go to Bibrakard to let them provide food supplies for your army with all their strength.

During the starry night, three brigades left by Caesar's camp were first taken out from the main gate. Under the leadership of Yurabinus, Deviach was arranged to the back baggage team instead of being placed in the Roman infantry camp for surveillance, so as to express that the Romans were not resentful to him. On the hills fifty Stadea from the camp, Li Bida led the main force of the 12th Legion, and the first brigade of Thousands of One Thousands led six brigades, leaving three or four brigades with serious damage before staying in the camp for rest.

Everyone's goal, Santoni and Li Bida, finally got this opportunity to let the 12th Legion go to the battlefield, but whether they can get the benefits and make a name for themselves must be careful when they go to the battlefield.

In the middle of the pine trees moving rapidly, Li Bida rode the owl on the ink-colored Ala River. He looked up and saw that under the lonely starry sky, more than a dozen cross trees were tall in front of the guide bridge, casting slender and terrifying shadows on the bridge deck. Chief Gunilin at the front, the brave and unyielding chief, now the corpse is completely left with fragmented bones, white, and behind is nailed his relatives and wife and children. This terrifying scene made the owl sniff in panic, uneasy and digging the soil under his hooves, and refuse to move forward. Li Bida patted its neck and said softly:

"Do you miss your former mistress? I am afraid that she will be attacked by the enemy and end up like this chief when she works alone in the distant East? Don't be afraid, I am here and I am here. I will find a way to get out and go to the East or Egypt for a while. I will protect everyone, and of course you and your mistress." Then, the owl gradually calmed down, carried the male master, and caught up with the army.

Five more days later, Rabinus and Libida got off the horse in Caesar's main camp, and they told Deviach not to recklessly meet with the governor.

The huge joint camp that can gather in four legions, even if they are chasing the Helveti people in front of them every day, Caesar will still order everyone to camp steadily when dusk.

"You are here, the Helvetis have been slower and slower these days. I suspect that their food will be exhausted, and more and more women and children who have been abandoned by the other side are being taken in by our army." Caesar's face has become much thinner. "Tell me, Libidaus and Rabinus have deviated from my previous orders together and come here quickly. I guess something serious has happened."

The two of them gave each other a wink, and Rabinus took the lead in reporting, "A serious incident has indeed happened. Governor General, we need you to leave everyone else, the centurion, the civilian guardian, and another deputy commander. This move is not because I and Libidaus are arrogant, but now it is time for the entire army to be in danger!"

Caesar invited all the other generals out, and then Rabinus asked, "How many days can our legion last for combat now? I'm talking about military ration reserves."

Caesar, sitting on the ring chair, pursed his lips, his head-up patterns twisted together under his bald head, and his fingers quickly lit each other. Finally, he raised three fingers with some difficulty, meaning that there are only three days left in military rations, "But don't worry, I will immediately take three legions and quickly head northwest to Bibrakde City to obtain supplies. In addition, the Eleventh Legion of Apis is further away from there, about twenty Romanian camps. Once sufficient food is obtained, the whole army will fight against the Helvets, and we have the advantage of attacking them."

"Then you, Governor, will be severely damaged and even annihilated by the Helvetis during your march to Bibrakard!" Rabinus said without hesitation.

The atmosphere became quieter, and then Caesar raised his hand politely and asked the most trusted acting commander-in-chief that you and Li Bida arrived here in a starry night, probably just to talk about this, even though you agreed.
