"When you are hungry, seasonings are food for the stomach, and after you are full, seasonings are burdens for the stomach." - Seneca

"The original commander of the Thirteenth Legion was temporarily removed from his post and stayed by my side as deputy general, because like the 15th Legion, this legion was personally trained by General Libidaus. It doesn't matter when it belongs to my command sequence alone, but once it is under the command of General Libidaus, there will be no interference from outsiders and let him command freely." The above are Caesar's original words, so the Thirteenth Legion is now managed by Tagus, but Libida directly serves as the commander.

Li Bida's two troops, one of the 13th Legion, fought alone. Petterneus and Tagus, led the troops, suddenly headed north and entered the Macedonian province, and asked Menetamus, the Greek leader of the province, to "bring an olive branch and wheat bread to welcome Diktu's army as soon as possible."

Li Bida himself led the Sixth Legion and the Fifteenth Legion to lie quietly in the mountainous areas on the border between Macedonia and Thessalia. Here you can go north to the Macedonian region, and south to threaten the Egnatiya Avenue, which is an ideal hub area.

"What, Menetamus surrendered to the rebels?" Scipio, on the way to march, looked at the information excitedly and asked loudly. After receiving the affirmation of the scout cavalry, he said to Prince Sarada, next to him, "Have you learned such news when you led the Allies through Macedonia?"

Sarada shook his head and said that it must be Menetamus who was threatened by the enemy's army. Scipio said rudely. It seemed that Caesar had already sent a ranger and took Macedonian attention, "We should turn the main attack direction and go to Macedonian for the sake of the situation!"

"Oh, I don't think this is a good idea." At this time, a middle-aged general with sharp eyes behind Scipio said, "Our mission is to lead the legion to attack Caesar, who besieged the city of Cocula, rather than entanglement with the enemy's partial army." After hearing this sentence, he thought that he was the supreme commander of three glorious surnames "Metra", "Gonailius" and "Scipio". With dissatisfaction, he looked at the vice general who had always been outspoken. His name was Apis, and he was born in a civilian. Logically speaking, he should stand in the same camp as Caesar, but he was a tragic guy who was very annoying and principled. Scipio had long wanted to drive him away, but because this man had accumulated rich experience and courage in the previous Eastern Wars and the Gaul Wars, he could not get rid of him now.

So Scipio had to be affected and convinced him, "Macedonia is a great province of military resources and wealth. We cannot lose this area. In addition, if the enemy's sterilized army occupy Macedonia, our rear would be threatened, so I still feel that we must go north to recover Macedonia."

But Apis was unmoved. He just said lightly and firmly, "The key to the outcome of the war now is not the gains and losses of Macedonia, but the defeat of Caesar, kill him or capture him. Then the war will be over. Please don't focus on the irrelevant places."

"I am the supreme commander!" Finally, Scipio angrily used this killer weapon.

Apis expressed his reservations and no longer argued. Then he pointed to the Alyakmond River in front of the army and said, "You can take two legions north to Macedonia, but I will stay by the river with the Sixth Legion, dig camps and guard the baggage."

After hearing this resolution, Scipio breathed a sigh of relief and finally slowed down. He promised that Apis would only take three to five days to defeat the enemy Youjun that appeared in Macedonia, and then he would come back (of course he would have to blackmail him again and again) and meet with Apis and go to defeat Caesar himself.

Then on that day, Scipio set out excitedly. He marched along the left bank of the Alyakmond River. After quietly surveying his formation, several Mathian cavalry rushed to the hidden camp and reported the information to Li Bida.

Then, Libida, Sabo, Seerha and other generals led the guards to the heights to hide and watched the enemy's marching posture. "It seems that this guy who likes to swear by himself while watching the dance is not an incompetent person. His formation is marching along the river, and unilateral attacks are useless to him. In addition, there seems to be a large number of Thracian light cavalry in Scipio's team, which seems to have obtained reinforcements from Curtis. The two legions are a bit difficult to deal with the two legions."

"According to the scout's report, Scipio should have a legion, staying by the Alyakmond River, responsible for guarding the baggage camp." The dark-skinned Serha suggested, "We can let Scipio go first."

"And then attack his baggage camp?" Li Bida thought for a while, "No, maybe there are bigger chains of strategies!"

The two banks of the Alyakmond River rose again after night. In the fog, the sixth legion of Angandinus remained silent and hurried towards the destination with a torch. He received the urgent order of the acting commander-in-chief, "Let go at night and drive straight to the enemy's baggage camp. As far as I know, there is only one legion guarding the other side, the number is the Sixth legion of the Macedonian Province. After you reach your destination, just set up a dignified formation to confront them. My purpose will induce the two legions of Scipio to come back in a hurry, and I set up an ambush on Mount Andabuki, waiting for an opportunity to annihilate him!"

It turns out that my army is just a cover! Angandinus smiled bitterly, but this is good. He still remembers the bloody defeat in Kale, Syria. Although he is one of the few generals who escaped, he thinks that desert is an eternal nightmare. "If it's just a cover, that's fine, it's better to have bloody battles away from me and the soldiers."

Suddenly, there was a sound of killing like mountains and seas in front of him. Angandinus was so scared that the entire team began to become chaotic. Many soldiers swayed in the dark and fled in the opposite direction. "Blow the trumpet, I repeat it again, blow the trumpet!" Angandinus shouted, and then the shrill sound of the trumpet pierced the silence of the night sky. Centurions began to look for their subordinates, and they tossed and messed up for a long time. It was not until dawn that Angandinus had rectified the order, but he also found that his sixth legion was panicked and ran away three Romans, trampling and trampling on each other to death.

Later, when the chief centurion leading the team came, Angandinus realized that the soldiers in the front team were ambushed by the enemy's secret whistle cavalry, and then they fought each other in fear, not only exposing the target, but also leading to the shameful retreat now.
