Chapter 17 The Enemy in the Face (Part 2)
It seems that Hebrida threatened Adianna as a hostage in exchange for the retreat of Bendu's troops. Although Karabis thought that his move was not wrong, it was really hurt by morality, so he could only bite the bullet and stand in front of the low-level centurion: "Master, you can't do this."
"Get out of here." Hebrida was already very polite to speak this time. His thinking was that when Karabis was his own slave, beating was kissing and scolding and love, but now he is the servant of the princess, and he is a little uncomfortable infringing on other people's private property.
"Mr., your mission is to escort the princess to Sinop. She is a distinguished guest of the legion or a relative of the Roman ally. Even for the purpose of protecting her, she can only take a respectful attitude and solve this matter."
Hebrida stared at Karabis for a short while, then curled her lips and stood there without moving, meaning you can do it quickly.
At this time, Nesa and Porti also walked out of their own tent in surprise, and soon Safano and Aminius pressed their swords to the waist with a dagger. Nesa screamed in panic. Hebrida pointed at them and shouted: "Don't panic, women, you have enough screams in daily life!" Then Karabis gritted the bullet and climbed into the carriage-persuading Adiana, he was not so sure of doing things according to Hebrida's conditions.
Suddenly, Karabis, who had opened the curtain, shouted without a glance.
In full view of everyone, he trembled and pointed to the carriage, "Inside, it's not the Princess Bendu inside!"
Claudi, who was tied up in Adianna's dress, was pulled out of the carriage by a group of soldiers. Seeing the cavalry captain who was still wearing a woman's clothes, Hebrida, Utaris and others, didn't know what expressions to put on his face - how could he be here? Where did she go?
Claudi, who was rescued, looked extremely embarrassed and panicked. Before he could change into women's clothing, he scolded him for being kidnapped by a group of Bendu thugs and stuffed into a ox cart. He had no idea what happened afterwards.
At this time, Karabis looked at Helenputina and others. Although he was separated by the mask, he could imagine the despair of the Amazon Queen. When he was "saving people", he hurriedly did not check his identity, and ended up in Daoer.
"Your Highness, there!" Porti suddenly pointed to a hillside, and Karabis stood in the carriage and saw that under the hillside to the west, many soldiers surrounded by a beautifully decorated four-horse chariot. On it was nothing but Adianna. Her mouth was filled with a unique arrogant smile, and her chestnut hair shone brightly in the afterglow of the sunset, wearing a gorgeous cloak, holding the scepter of the goddess of victory in her hand.
On the left side of the chariot is a general Bendu with a Kalkis helmet and a black horsehair, namely the cavalry general of Mitradati, "Bison" Tucker Schiller;
On the right, there is a Celtic samurai with an indigo tattoo on the upper body, carrying a sword, "Abona's right hand", and Biduita.
"You are right, Your Highness Adianna, this little Roman army is indeed here. Since we are surrounded by us, eat them as an appetizer for dinner." Tucker Schiller asked respectfully.
"Bison, my father's large group of troops are still behind, so I will be the leader of the vanguard for the time being. I have my own decision." Adiana then waved the scepter slightly, and several cavalrymen next to him stepped forward, and saw her keep saying something to these people. Soon, several cavalrymen held flags and galloped down the hillside, demanding a dialogue with the Romans.
"Karabis, you translate!" Hebrida licked her dry lips and said with her eyes narrowed.
"Mr. Princess Wang pleads with mercy. Her golden mouth tells you--the army of the Bendu Empire here is as many as five thousand people, and resistance is unwise." A cavalry leader sat on the horse and shouted loudly, "But the reason why you are in a humiliating situation of defeat and defeat today is that you cannot blame others. You can only resent your corruption captain Claudi, because he was bribed by our gold and sold your whereabouts!"
Claudi's handsome face turned pale in an instant. He trembled and explained to the angry soldiers around him that this was a trick of disagreement by cunning enemies. I am the wife of the captain of the cavalry and the commander-general. Now I am the largest official in this camp, and I will be the one who will do anything to disobey the chief.
The cavalry then shouted: "If the three envoys of Governor Marcha, the prince's brother, please leave on their own if they are in the camp. Because the prince's brother does not want to be enemies with the prince for the time being."
There was a neighing sound of horses, Helenputina nodded. She knew Greek and did not need Karabis to translate anything. El Capa and Ella followed him and rushed out of the back door of the camp. The Bendu cavalry on the hillside really kept their promises and made way out of the queue. Soon Helenputina disappeared on the other side of the hillside. Karabis held the chariot and looked at the queen's back, feeling lost. Could it be that she left like this?
Yes, Karabis, you are just a "bit elf" in the other person's heart...
"Okay, all the officers and soldiers of the Third Regiment of the Sixth Bakers of the Roman Bax Legion must now put down your weapons, take off your armor, line up, line up in a column in the camp, walk in front of the Queen's Queen to show your surrender! Otherwise, the attack will begin in an hour." After saying this, the Bendu cavalry held up the flag again, raised their hands in the direction of the camp, and then left in a row.
When Karabis translated this sentence, the camp was in full swing!
Almost all soldiers expressed their desire to safeguard the dignity of the legion and fought to the end with the despicable Bendu cubs who attacked the despicable. Hebrida also prepared her armor and helmet, and said to Utaris next to her with complicated expressions: "Sad, I didn't expect to die in the end with you."
Claudimai walked over there with trembling steps, "Don't be stupid. We still have the princess in Bendu in our hands. No one should die here."
"Dear His Highness Claudi, you heard the words of that stinky girl just now. She had declared war on us and actually demanded that we surrender-the Romans never compromised against the enemy after the war." After Hebrida said that, looking at Claudi's cowardly appearance, she sighed, "It would be useless to bribe you with those five thousand Seths."
At this time, the flag bearer in the camp had already stood up. Half of the soldiers boarded the fence and half of the soldiers had already formed a formation and were ready to go out to the camp to fight to the death.
Hebrida spitted into the palm of his hand, then swung the dagger in his hand twice, approaching Nesa and Porti, who were dissatisfied with no face, "The battle is about to take over. The Roman army's practice is not to leave hostages, do you understand?" After that, he turned his eyes to the two of Safano and Aminius.
"Claudi! My favorite Claudi! Good good, don't fall into the trap of Adianna's wild cat. She intended to disagree with us. She fooled all of us. Her purpose was to kill all of us." Nasa opened her throat, cried and made a fuss, kneeling on the ground and unable to get up.
Porti's big eyes looked at Karabis in the car in horror. Karabis's chest trembled. Now Porti's only hope was placed on him. He didn't care what kind of grudges Porti, Nesa and Adiana had in the court of Bendu before, but Porti was just a female slave. She had no crime. But the Romans' habit was that if the master died abnormally, his (her) slave must also die, or he would break himself or execute it by a third party, without any room for negotiation.
