Roman Slave Owner

But his order didn't seem to reassure the Thracians. Those barbarians took the opportunity to break into the Thracians, and the Thracian army was about to be defeated.

At this moment, the bugle sounded from behind.

At this time, the flag officer said: "Sir, the lieutenant general asked us to form a ring formation."

"Quickly form a ring formation! Use me as the center to form a ring formation!"

Sainas said calmly, he has been battle-tested for a long time, knowing that it is useless to panic.

The circular formation is the best defensive formation when the army is close to collapse. Fortunately, on the way from Thrace to here, Senas explained various formations to them, and these Thracians finally understood what they should do.

As if they had found a backbone, they rallied around Senas and started defending outwards.

Although their small round shields could not compare with the Romans' large shields, the curved short swords could still exert great power in such a narrow space, and they firmly protected the general's flag in the center.

"Hold on, trust us, we will definitely win, General Li Wei is the strongest triumphant general in Rome."

Thanes cheered them up desperately.

The precarious situation on the two wings finally reached Li Wei. Although the Chinese army is winning steadily, it will take some time before complete victory.

"Let the Eleventh Legion support the left flank, and the Twelfth Legion support the right flank."

Levi said.

"Yes, General."

Hearing this, several heralds immediately galloped towards the Eleventh and Twelfth Legion and passed the order to them.

The Eleventh Army and the Twelfth Army set off immediately to support the two wings.

The Thracians who received support quickly stabilized the situation, and there were even signs of a counterattack.

After more than half an hour of fighting, the Chinese army in Bendu was finally defeated.

Even if Mithrada dropped the reserve team, it would only slightly prevent this trend of defeat.

Perhaps soon, those reserves will collapse too.

"It's impossible! It's impossible!"

Mithridates murmured.

He has worked hard for so many years, even at the expense of learning the tactics of the Romans, why they still lose.

You must know that his infantry is twice as close to the enemy, and his cavalry is three times more than the enemy.

Alexander's face was silent. In fact, he already had this premonition when the war started.

The fighting power of the Romans is really too strong, and the Pondus are no match at all.

To their surprise, it was not the central army that collapsed next, but the barbarians on both wings and the Roman army.

Although these barbarians are strong in personal force, they are undisciplined, and they are not opponents of well-trained Romans at all.

After the defeat of those barbarians, the Roman legion immediately swept to the center.

Mithrada was so earthy that he almost fainted from his horse.

"How could this be? How could this be?"

They no longer have a reserve team in their hands, and even an idiot knows what will happen next. The Pontus army in the center will be attacked from the front and both wings, and will soon collapse.

Those Bendu soldiers dropped their swords and shields one after another, and Sa Yazi started to run away.

"Your Majesty, let's go first."

Dionysus said with a look of panic.

"Go, where are you going?"

Mithrada said in a daze.

He was defeated by Sura first, and then by Li Wei, all of which were defeated by an absolutely superior force.

This made him discouraged for a while. Are the Romans his nemesis?

"We have a ship in the Eukean Sea (Black Sea), we can take the ship back to Pondus first. The Romans will spend the winter camp, we have a winter time to gather the army, and then unite with Armenia and Parthia, and then fight them again .”

Dionysus said.

In fact, Pontus has a military alliance with Armenia and Parthia, and the king of Armenia is his son-in-law, so there is no problem in letting them send troops.

"He is right, Your Majesty.

The current situation is irreversible, let's go first. "

At this time Alexander also persuaded.

Mithridates hesitated for a while, finally nodded, and fled northward with his guards.

Mithrada's departure was the last straw that broke the camel's back. Seeing the king's military flag going away, the Pontus army and barbarians had no fighting spirit and fled to the city one after another.

The Roman army started a big hunt.

An hour later, there were cheers everywhere on the battlefield.

Diotarus is full of flattery around Li Wei. Once this battle is won, the restoration of Galacia will be in sight.

Li Wei is also very excited. After this battle is won, the next battle will be much easier.

Luculus also looked at him complicatedly, another Sura, another Marius.

"Order the army to pursue at full speed, and must not give them a chance to gather and fight back."

Levi said.

"Yes, General."

"Yes, General."

"..."

In the Senate of Rome, Elius Lamia was complaining about Li Wei's behavior in Asia.

After receiving a letter from her younger brother, Lamia was so angry by Li Wei's behavior that one Buddha was born and the other Buddha was born.

As long as this kind of usury is handled well, a foreigner can be his own cow for a lifetime, and even eat the cow with its belt and bones.

But now they are all destroyed by Li Wei. According to his estimation, the loss is at least three million dinars per year.

This is three million dinars!

Thinking of this, Lamia's heart was bleeding.

With the support of some equally damaged nobles, he filed a complaint against Li Wei on behalf of those usurers.

"Dear senators, everyone must have known what happened in Asia. Governor Lebiris' order seriously hurt the interests of Roman merchants there, causing immeasurable losses..."

Listening to Lamia's speech, many elders were not interested, and even showed disgust.

At this time, Rome was also a society that valued farmers and despised merchants, not to mention those who lend usury.

No matter in which country, ancient or modern, Chinese or foreign, loan sharks are regarded as vampires, so they don't want to get involved with Lamia.

Even if they secretly let their spokespersons do these things, on the surface they must draw a clear line from usury. This is definitely a matter that damages the honor of the nobility, and it will cause extremely great harm to the family and personal career.

After finishing his speech, he looked at the elders expectantly, hoping to gain support among the elders.

What disappointed him was that the eyes of most of the elders were indifferent, and even those elders whose interests were damaged had flickering eyes, and they did not agree with him on the surface.

This made him curse secretly, what a bunch of hypocrites.

Serapio looked at Lamia with an extremely cold gaze, this damned guy, the Patriarch fought bravely for Rome on the front line, but he stabbed a knife in the back.
