Chapter 19 Disguised Peace Talk (2)
"Bastard, bastard! These traitors who are treacherous and have no sincerity, whether they are the guides, Surena, Hellod, or the shameless virgins in the Kitchen Temple, do they have no other tricks except to deceive others?" Crassus was almost out of anger on his shoulders. The betrayal of these days, the pain of cowardice and the loss of his son surged into his heart, and climbed up his throat. He fell dejectedly on his pillow, only to hear the numb wind in his ears, whizzing like a knife. How could he be
He longed to prove his military talents again, but nothing could be possible. The Parthians used this extremely rogue but effective tactic to completely tear his troops apart, and he could not effectively command the team. The battle of fighting in the entire Mediterranean region in the past was not working in this desert and suburban area. Now there are probably less than a hundred people left behind who are still following him. He can only hope to catch up with Eugutaves's striker as soon as possible.
In fact, the sound of fighting on the flank of Crassus was exactly the right wing of Angandinus's right wing to cover the soldiers. That night, Faisal first cleverly led him and four brigades to a certain Gaofu with water, and told Angandinus to be calm and not to run around like other brigades. "If there is water here, don't waste it, let the animals drink it with their animals." Angandinus followed the advice of the guide and asked a soldier to raise a shield to sanitate the waist of Gaofu, and the rest of the people were
They drank the spring water happily and formed a strict formation. They followed Faisal's advice and did not flee in all directions. Many Parthian cavalry, even General Selsius's entourage, rushed over from here and shot arrows fiercely at them. But the arrows at night lacked accuracy. Seeing this Romans was tenacious, and their thoughts were not worth it. To wipe out the energy of arrow clusters and horses in order to annihilate these enemies, they threw down the four brigades of Angandinus and continued to pursue Crassu.
"The proverb is well said, ordinary people often survive on bad battlefields." Angandinus secretly complained, and then the Arab guide reminded him again responsibly, pay attention to the moon. When the moon surpassed the Scorpio star, he led the troops to continue walking forward, because this is an effective way to calculate the time and direction of the night. So at the prescribed time, Angandinus led these four brigades into marching columns, and many collapsed along the way were also housed.
The soldiers killed some Parthian stragglers and prepared to protect Crassus. As a result, when they were about twenty furons away from the swamp, they encountered Surena's main force. Angandinus was scared to death again, and the Arab guide Faisal encouraged him. "When the Arabs lived in tribes, they had to live by looting other tribes every day, but when there was no outsider to rob us, we would steal our brothers. This is the way to survive in the desert.
, I myself hope to get fifty Drakhmas back to buy sheep, so you should rush over with your sword, General! But don't hope to meet with your governor, there is a large swamp in front of me, I guess he has been imprisoned, so we should go in the opposite direction, so that the enemy will temporarily abandon us." Angandinus cried, and all the soldiers of the four brigades held their swords with ferocious faces, pulled their pack horses, rushed to the Parthian cavalry to chop and chop
Some cavalrymen originally thought that these Romans would stay in place like others, so they were caught off guard and many were killed. Other cavalrymen fled far away. "They broke through to the opposite place in an attempt to lure us to give up Crasso. Don't worry about these people. They won my respect because of their bravery. Let go and go to that swamp to hunt Crasso first!" Surena, who was supervising the battle behind the cavalry, "seeked through the trick" and hurriedly ordered.
Sure enough, the Parthian cavalry immediately abandoned the team of Angandinus like a tornado and headed towards the swamp. Under Faisal's continued guidance, they climbed up to Gaofu, which had a water source in the other east for a temporary rest, and they were already leaning against the remnants of the Sinaca Mountain. When the soldiers saw the steep cliff, they felt an incomparable sense of security and cheered together.
"You can go anytime now. You can reach the city of Ikney by turning along the wall to the west." After hearing this, Angandinus burst into tears and quickly sent a total of 200 silver coins to the ugly guide, but Faisal insisted that only fifty coins were required. He explained, "As sooner or later, the gods of this world will punish those who have tried more than they deserve, and the contented welfare will continue. Your governor, the general of Parthia, and the Akbarus who has never been honest in business, and his minion Edlomax, will be retribution."
As a result, before he finished speaking, a centurion pointed to the horizon in the east and shouted, "Battle of cavalry, battalion of cavalry!"
Angandinus almost cried again. Could it be that the other generals of Parthian also joined the ranks of encirclement and annihilation of us? But when he looked in the strong sunshine, he found that many of the cavalry advancing rapidly with light were covered with Gauru cloaks and chain mail, carrying the Sparta sword, and many blacks and nomads, with different horses and equipment, but the goal was highly consistent - to gallop towards the West!
"Eagle Mark, our Eagle Mark!" Now, everyone on Gao Fu shouted more happily, and they also raised their shiny team marks, "This must be General Libidaus's side division to save us."
Li Bida's cavalry, Dussenvier from the Boys, Hanske from the Germans, and two with silver-plated armor, with all the cavalry, quickly came to Gaofu, and then formed a warning encirclement. With silver-plated armor, he immediately replaced the tired horses with several vanguards, and reconnaissance again.
Next, on the horizon, infantry holding various flags slowly patted the vast plane and marched strictly under the cover of the flank cavalry. "General Libidaus, now the Syrian Governor is in a very dangerous situation. He was pursued by enemy cavalry in that swamp, and his life and death are uncertain." Angandinus walked down Gaofu and ordered four brigades of soldiers to join Libida's battle line, reporting.
"Is there no force to support Kalai City?" Li Bida jumped off the horse, hugged each other and asked immediately.
"There is only a Fifth Legion, who was placed in Kale City by the Governor, would be good to protect himself."
"Your Excellency the Governor should leave one more elite legion, and the Fifth Legion rely on Kale City to stop the enemy's pursuit. This is his mistake. General Angandinus, I order your team to accept my command immediately and follow here to open the road to Ikney!" Li Bida said hypocritically.
