Herod fell on the couch again and sighed without hesitation in front of Sabo. Now Surena's request is that after defeating the Romans, they demanded that Syria and Gerasha be both rewarded. Before the war was settled, they sought this reason for Herod hated Surena. If so, the greater the outcome of this war, the greater the outcome of Surena, it would be a huge disaster for him.

The peace agreement proposed by Li Bida now may not be inferior. If this private transaction is completed, he can restore the traditional territory of the empire. In addition, as long as he kills Surena and defeats the glory of the Roman Expeditionary Force, as long as he cares about Shi Yan, he can still take over his own tent. But if his younger brother Mindaz does not die, it will always be a huge knot for him, so he gritted his teeth and asked Sabo again, "Use my brother's head to exchange Surena's head."

"I'm sorry we can't do it, because we must give the Republic an explanation. Although we do this, we must also pay attention to the most basic faith. That is, as a condition for peace talks, your brother, Assassin, must safely follow Governor Chinodosha to leave this country." Unexpectedly, Sabo's position was very firm.

"Can you guarantee Mindaz won't come back?"

"It is impossible to guarantee that even if this war will end soon and even our main force is wiped out, it is impossible for the Republic to continue to fight back to Seleulia with Mindaz in five or ten years. Therefore, I can only wish you a stable state-owned position and a smooth pass on the king's business to your noble son."

Herod put his hands on his chest, breathing rapidly, staring at the statue of the celestial eagle swaying over his head. This is my throne and will not give it to anyone, but Surena's threat is the most direct now, so let Mindaz leave for the time being.

Within three days, Libida's army galloped to the city of Seleulia. He played the trumpet, and Mindazi's subordinates lined up to greet him at the gate. Mindazi, who had a slightly beard, rode on his horse, looked at Libida who was also riding towards him with a complicated expression. This gesture was to ask him to leave Seleulia immediately. "Our army is near Nineveh. It was defeated by your brother, but being able to lift the siege of Seleulia before is also a due assistance to you. Now the treatment of you is also very generous. As I go to Kale, rescue the rest of the people. Then, the villa in the suburbs of Rome will have your place."

"Will I still kill back to the empire and take back my throne? The last words that belonged to me were clearly stated, but were tampered with by the despicable Surena because he needed a foolish monarch so that he could do whatever he wanted." Mindaz said with a reluctance.

"That's right. It seems that everyone is full of interest in Surena's death, so we have a common language." Li Bida smiled and held hands with each other on the horse's back. "It may be a question whether you will return to Parthia in the future, but we will be able to see Surena's bloody head soon, but there is no doubt about this."

All the Legion soldiers, Macedonians, Nubians, Cyrani, and Spaniards, who had previously followed the commander-in-chief and had experience in fighting in the desert. They loaded their armor and javelins on light mule carts, carried shields and swords lightly, and rushed westward and advanced towards the city of Kale.

At this time, the city of Kale was in chaos. Before dawn had arrived, the cavalry of the Crasus army, Ignagius, was the one who lost his love for his horse in the Euphrates. He quickly arrived at the city with three hundred cavalrymen and shouted to the temporary governor of the city, Copponnius, "I have judged your identity from your garments, so I can tell you--the governor of Syria, Crasus, is in the southern Barissus River, and is in a major battle with the Parthians.

, but unfortunately, this war has not been decided yet, and I hope you will be prepared for the corresponding combat." This Ignagius is a cunning and self-protection guy. He deliberately did not tell the specific situation of the battle, and even did not tell Copponius his military rank and name. When the other party was still in a foggy state, Ignagius took these three hundred cavalrymen and left Kale without looking back, and fled around the Sinaca Mountains on the edge of Ikney in the north, and quickly fled towards Jucomma's winter camp!

Although it was a little unclear, Copponius still rigorously asked his subordinates to strengthen the city's defense measures. Soon after, some scattered Parthian light cavalry came to seek bad luck, and they were all driven away by the city's side with sticks and bows and arrows. Gradually, when the sun rose, several teams of tired and embarrassed Roman soldiers appeared in the wasteland south of Cale City. Then more and more people almost covered their eyes. Many people were wounded with arrows and wrapped their bodies in blankets or cloaks. Some even lost their weapons, and their military shoes were only swaying on one foot. Copponius admitted that this was the most embarrassed army of the Republic he had seen in his life.

Kale City is too small. Originally, Copponius had only one brigade of troops stationed here. Now there are 30,000 people, and there are also the entourage of the Syrian Governor. Many of them were injured, just like a huge whale stranded in a small fish pond. But Copponius is indeed a capable guy. Under his careful arrangement, Kale City only allowed the governor's team, plus seriously injured soldiers to enter. The rest of the brigades were around Kale City, building temporary camps around with trenches as the boundary, and staying densely under the city. Because the camp on the Barissus River was abandoned during the breakout, many people did not even bring equipment and luggage, and naturally lacked tents to block the sun and sand. In fact, most people could only stay in the open air with their bodies, which was extremely miserable.

"There are few residents in this city, and food and water sources are difficult to support such a huge need, so we must break through again as soon as possible." The city was full of wounds, and Copponnius felt that it was difficult to have a foothold, but he still tried his best to find the devastated Crassus and the main general Zuo, who were devastated under the eagle mark, made this request to him.

Crassus also knew that it was unsustainable in Kale City, so Kasio immediately suggested that he advance north to Ikney as his new foothold, and then walk along the Sinaka Mountains. After he and Eugutaves voluntarily, as long as he used the mountain as a support, the Roman infantry could easily repel the pursuit of the Parthian cavalry and ensure that the Governor safely returned to Antioch.
