"Oh, where is your chief deputy?" On the streets to Dikhaqiang, Machius kept wiping his sweat, touching the box slung on his shoulders, and asked casually on the horse's back.

The centurion in charge of leading the way was somewhat unhappy, "I have already said it for the sixth time. As His Excellency Dirkutdo said, it was at Dirkhaqiang to command the guards of the harbor."

"Oh, oh." Machius said, and stopped asking questions for a short time. He recognized the road, and he did go there, so at normal horse speed, they walked for a whole day before they reached their destination. In front of Machius, the harbor at dusk was indeed busy. The soldiers and soldiers were hanging crossbows on the tower with winches, and the ships were nervously unloading some supplies. From a distance, the white camp was neatly tidy.

Then, Machius also met the person he wanted to meet in the camp tent with the eagle flag, Libidaus.

The other party sat behind the table with a quiet expression. The confidential slaves around him came in and out, and from time to time they possessed themselves to accept his advice, with a whispering voice. Seeing the "old friend", Li Bida stood up cheerfully, clapped his hands and hugged Makius, who was a little embarrassed, and asked him what he had happened to this time.

When Machius explained his purpose, Li Bida generously agreed, but asked, "But, if the two armies fought fiercely during this period, how can the hostages be exchanged?"

Machius was stunned for a moment, and then said that we were willing to fight for three days, and after the two important hostages were exchanged, it would not be too late to fight again. Then, a hint of dismay flashed on Li Bida's face. He tried to put the date tomorrow. Three days were too long. Then he sat down again, quickly signed the order to release Sarada, and stamped the seal of King Numa's ring in front of Machius, and handed it over. "Although I hate Rabinus's previous rudeness and untrustworthiness to me, I believe he was also in the enemy camp. To be honest, a person who served Caesar for ten years suddenly came to Pompey. Maybe he could only eliminate rumors in this way and prove himself?"

Machius was quite moved by this. He choked up a little. After receiving the order, he bowed and asked for a reply tomorrow. Li Bida also agreed to send Prince Sarada to Caesar immediately for delivery.

"Is Prince Sarada really here?" Machius suddenly asked.

"Here," Li Bida did not hesitate, and then he added. "But I can't show it to you. I won't let this certificate of merit appear in front of the world at will."

In fact, when Machius had just walked to the main entrance of the camp and untied the rope to lead the horse, Li Bida quickly walked to the pillar in the corner, held it, and began to retching and gasp. He almost just suppressed the fatigue of running from the horse's back to Dikhaqiang, and kept his breathing, trying not to let himself make heavy breathing sounds, which made Machius suspicious. Therefore, this short sentence was more energy and energy than a battle. But when he was vomiting gastric juice on the ground, he still adjusted his breathing after Machius left for half a day, stepped onto the horse's back, and ran towards the hidden camp at the mouth of the Gimons River again.

At night, he was exhausted and almost got involved in front of the camp. When he arrived at the sand table, he could no longer speak, so he could only signal Sabo with his eyes to the generals and the centurion. Then Sabo announced in person, "Tomorrow afternoon to night, Rabinus will launch a total raid on Caesar's besieged position, an unprecedented strong attack. I personally estimate that Rabinus will select all the powerful soldiers at his hands and throw them into this offensive. There may be twenty brigades, but Rabinus will not be stupid enough to evenly distribute military strength. He will choose a breakthrough point."

Then Sabo cleared his throat and said, "So he proposed to exchange Gaius, which was a total trick, to determine where our three legions were. Fortunately, I happened to report my duties in Diktudo's tent at that time and clarified Diktudo's meaning. Our acting commander-in-chief first galloped to Dikhaqiang and deceived Machius because of his wit, and then worked tirelessly to return here immediately and urged us all to join the battlefield in Cocula! Next, please general Petterneus issue a specific military order."

So at this time, the veteran Petternius stood up politely and said hello to everyone, and then arranged it slowly but clearly instead of the coach:

The two most important Gaul cavalry captains under Caesar rebelled, and now that Machius is eager to know the position of our army, it means that these two have indeed sold all the virtual and real Caesar's defense line to Rabinus, so the most likely direction of Pompei's attack was the Dicias tribe in the north.

"Why?" Angandinus did not understand the basis for judgment in the inner world.

"Because the two legions here are the weakest, although Anthony's southern defense has a new recruit 20th legion, but there are also the 16th legion supporting him. Rabinus has fought with the southern and eastern fronts, so he naturally should understand that our legions in these two places should not be underestimated." Petternius's answer made Angondinus speechless and shut his mouth.

"We set out when we were on the third post tonight. The Sixth Army was responsible for the lead. The Thirteenth Army and the Fifteenth Army refused. The acting commander-in-chief led the guards and staff to the first place outside the five Romans of Diccias camp to survey the positions. I will follow the legion and be responsible for the dispatch." After saying that, Petternius asked all centurions to return to the camp immediately, let the soldiers carry a day's dry food, all the equipment, and hold torches, ready to march at night.

At this time, in the twilight, in the wilderness between the two fortifications around the city of Cocula, Caesar's soldiers and Rabinus's soldiers were lined up in huge groups, quietly confronting each other outside the range of the stone shooting aircraft. This situation has lasted for two days, and the queues of both sides are similar. The only difference is that Rabinus placed the last row of soldiers on the wall of the blockade line, holding a hunting spear, and preparing to give a heavy blow to the invading Caesar's army with its height - but Caesar's soldiers were always outside the throwing distance and did not have the idea of ​​"invading".

The soldiers on Rabinus's side all had their lips ripped and bleeding;

And the soldiers on Caesar's side also had to put their stomachs on their backs.
