Roman Slave Owner

He knew that he couldn't wait any longer, and they would only have a dead end if they waited any longer.

"Attack, attack forward!"

Castus said loudly.

After receiving his order, the sound of bugles and trumpets sounded at the same time, and the military flag was waved, and the two armies brought a large number of slaves and rushed towards Regium.

They are less than ten Roman miles away from accumulating Regium, and they are victorious if they reach Regium.

"attack!"

Belieus said with a sneer.

The cavalry charged immediately, both from the rear and from the flanks of the slave army.

A shower of arrows and javelins fell upon them, and the slaves raised their shields.

These shields blocked many people's arrow rain and shields, but they also caused some damage to them.

Those cavalry didn't mind, they had plenty of patience, waiting for them to show their fatal flaws.

The Roman legion at the forefront did not shoot arrows or throw javelins, but charged directly with the tortoise shell formation.

The two armies collided fiercely like a huge torrent, and then began to fight, the desire of the slave army to escape was completely defeated.

Castus's eyes were tearing apart, the rebel army had been surrounded by the enemy, and if this continued, the entire army would definitely be wiped out.

Only by striving forward can we strive for a chance of survival.

He said to the trumpeter and flag officer beside him: "Notify all the troops, forward! Forward! Forward! Don't worry about the flanks and rear wings, kill a bloody path for me!"

The bugleman and the flag officer expressed their understanding. When the bugle sounded, all the military flags pointed forward.

The centurion and military tribune of the rebel army noticed the incessant sounding of bugles, and they shouted: "Forward! Forward, all!"

Those rebel soldiers seemed to be crazy, desperately fighting forward.

They killed the Roman legion with a ferocious face, completely disregarding their own casualties, and even defeated the Roman legion that was intercepting at the front, leaving Geta stunned.

"A bunch of trash! Chase! Chase me!"

Geta couldn't help roaring, and a large number of Roman soldiers killed the fleeing enemies again.

Belieus knew that the time had come for the cavalry to charge. At this time, the enemy's formation was completely disordered, and they only knew how to charge forward.

As long as a charge, the enemy will be completely defeated.

"Charge! All the cavalry charge me into the enemy formation!"

Belieus said loudly.

After receiving the order from Belieus, the cavalry immediately charged from the flanks and rear.

The slave soldiers were wearing heavy armor and couldn't run fast at all.

Those cavalrymen caught up with them easily, those Galacian cavalry pierced the corpses of slave soldiers with long spears, and other cavalrymen killed the enemy with short swords and various weapons.

Feeling the sound of rumbling horseshoes behind them, the rebel soldiers became even more frightened.

They ran forward desperately, completely ignoring the butcher knife behind them, even if someone stopped to fight back, there was only one dead end.

Castus soon discovered that something was wrong. If this continued, they would never be able to escape from Regium and would be killed by the cavalry.

But if you stop, you will soon be caught up by those infantry.

Either way, it's a dead end!

He quickly thought of a way, so he said to the surrounding soldiers: "We will grab a few horses later, and you follow me to fight out."

Those personal soldiers nodded. They are all real masters. As long as they have horses, it is very possible to protect Castus and kill a bloody road.

Under the pursuit of the cavalry, this army quickly turned into a big rout, and those cavalry wantonly harvested their lives.

Several Galacian cavalry were getting closer and closer to Castus and the others. They stabbed a rebel soldier under the horse with their spears.

Castus found a target, and threw the javelin that he had prepared for a long time like lightning.

"Pfft!"

There was a sound of a sharp weapon piercing into the flesh, and the Galacian cavalryman looked at the javelin protruding from his body in shock, and then fell off his horse unwillingly.

Castus quickly mounted the horse, and his personal soldiers also killed some cavalry each, and then mounted the horse.

Castus slapped his horse desperately, and killed him with his own soldiers.

Seeing that they were getting farther and farther away from the army, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But it was not long before they spotted a squad of thirty cavalry patrolling along the road.

Seeing this, Castus cursed secretly, the enemy's cavalry were simply locusts, everywhere.

"what do I do?"

asked one of his own soldiers.

"Change direction."

Castus said, then turned the horse's head and rushed in the other direction.

But the cavalry had already spotted them, and they quickly chased after them.

At the same time, a loud arrow was shot into the sky, and the loud arrow made a piercing scream in the sky, which spread far away.

Castus's face was so gloomy that water dripped out. It was through the connection of the sounding arrows that the cavalrymen besieged and slaughtered the rebel army, making it difficult for the rebel army to move an inch in the wild.

Sure enough, not long after, the cavalry rushed here from all directions.

Forcing Castus to change direction constantly, the distance between them and the chasing cavalry was getting closer and closer.

"ah!"

There was a scream from behind Castus. Castus looked back and found that several Armenian cavalry behind him bent their bows and set arrows, and shot one of his soldiers.

This made Castus's heart tremble, and the Armenian cavalry behind kept shooting, shooting one of his own soldiers.

Castus gritted his teeth and could no longer detour.

Because of his long charge, his horses were not as powerful as these enemies who were chasing him halfway.

Pointing to Regium in the distance, he once said, "Follow me and rush there. If you rush to Regium, you will win."

"Yes, sir."

His soldiers said one after another.

Castus slapped his horse desperately and charged at the cavalry on the opposite side.

The Galacian cavalry on the opposite side sneered. How dare such a small number of people dare to charge them, what a bunch of idiots.

They raised their spears and rushed towards Castus and the others.

The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer. The cavalry on the opposite side held the spear in their hands very steadily and was about to stab him. Castus was about to dodge, but his expression changed drastically soon.

Because the enemy's spear suddenly changed direction and stabbed at his horse.

"Pfft!"

A large amount of blood gushed out from the horse, and the horse under him whined. After running a few steps, he fell to the ground and slid for a long distance before stopping.

Castus tried desperately to control his body, but in the end he turned several somersaults on the ground before stopping.

He let out a scream in pain, and at this time his thigh had turned into a strange shape.

"leader!"

One of his soldiers said in horror.

But looking at the enemies around him, he finally chose to kill them desperately.

"leader?"

His words surprised a Roman officer.

"Don't kill him! Don't step on him!"

The officer yelled loudly.

Hearing this, the cavalry behind who wanted to control their horses to step on Castus immediately changed direction and walked around him.

Some of the cavalry went to chase and kill the fleeing soldiers, while some circled around Castus.

"who are you?"

asked the Roman officer.

Castus gritted his teeth and said nothing, the pain from his thigh almost made him faint.

"It doesn't matter if you don't say anything, take him away."

The Roman officer said with a smile.

Those cavalrymen pulled him on the back of the horse with a smile, completely ignored his miserable howls, patted the horse and rushed to their own camp.

A messenger rushed to the Regium City Mansion in panic, which had become the office of Spartacus.

"General, a soldier of Castus has come to report that our army outside the city has been ambushed by Roman troops, and...and..."

"Ambush by those cavalry?"

Spartacus asked.

"Not just the cavalry, but at least four Roman legions. Castus led his men out of the siege and wanted to come to rescue the soldiers, but was captured by mistake."

said the soldier.

Spartacus felt dizzy for a while, how is this possible?

Castus was actually captured?

"Where's that soldier?"

"He lost a lot of blood and fell into a coma."

"Bastard! Send me an order to assemble the army!"

"Yes, General."

The alarm bells rang in the city of Regium, and a large number of soldiers rushed to the top of the city, and some began to assemble, preparing to go out of the city to rescue the soldiers outside the city.

At this time, Spartacus received news that a large number of enemy cavalry appeared outside the city.

Spartacus went up to the top of the city to have a look, and found at least a thousand cavalry outside the city.

They brandished all kinds of weapons and clamored outside the city.

Some even ran outside the city and urinated directly on the top of the city, which drew loud applause from the cavalry.

"Bastards! A bunch of bastards!"

Curius cursed, "Spartacus, it's too dangerous to go out of the city, let me bring someone to rescue."

Spartacus did not speak, he was a little hesitant about this rescue operation, whether this was a trap by Levi.

If he led the army out of the city, would he be ambushed by the enemy's main force?

"Look over there."

someone said.

Spartacus looked into the distance, and saw military flags appearing in the distance, and then a large number of Roman soldiers gradually appeared in his field of vision.

Their armor was bright and their morale was high, and they were approaching Regium at a slow speed.

The people at the top of the city were silent for a while, and the Roman army really came.

It didn't take long for seven Roman legions to appear under the city wall. In addition, there were at least two thousand cavalrymen.

They did not launch an attack, but quietly looked at the people on the city wall.

Spartacus knew that they were preventing themselves from rescuing the rebels outside the city.

"what should we do?"

Curius asked.

Spartacus didn't answer, he kept counting the chips in his hand.

Now he has only 4 legions and 1 weaker legion in his hands.

With the strength of 5 legions attacking the 7 Roman legions waiting in full force, the chances of winning are terribly low, not to mention that the enemy still has more than 2,000 cavalry.

The head of the city was as quiet as death. Looking at the Roman legion under the city wall, they seemed to have seen the end of the day.

"Defend the city wall and don't go out of the city to rescue."

Spartacus said, "Culius, you send someone to catch some cavalry back, and you must find out where their camp is."

After speaking, he left here, his back was a little bleak, but his eyes were full of fighting spirit.

He Spartacus will never admit defeat!

Everyone didn't object, but breathed a sigh of relief quietly.

Seeing that the soldiers of the rebel army in the city had not gone to battle for a long time, Li Wei was also relieved.

"It's a good thing you didn't do anything stupid, otherwise how would this play continue."

Li Wei said with a smile.

The army continued to wait outside the city, and all the gates of Regium were watched by cavalry, so it was impossible to sneak attack.

Not long after, a cavalry galloped over.

"Report to the general, we wiped out the enemy army, killed more than 8,000 enemies, and captured more than 5,000 people."

The cavalryman said excitedly.

"Is that so, withdraw the troops after cleaning the battlefield."

Li Wei said lightly, he glanced at the sky, it will be dark soon.

***

There was panic in the city of Regium, and people already knew that the two legions of Castus had been wiped out.

This made them extremely fearful, and the continuous defeat made them lose confidence. Can they beat the Romans?

Spartacus came to Sarah's room with a serious face, but after seeing Sarah, all the seriousness disappeared and turned into tenderness with his fingers twisted.

"Spartacus, don't worry about it."

Sarah said worriedly.

"I'm fine, don't worry. By the way, do you have food? I'm a little hungry."

Spartacus hugged Sarah and said.

"No, I'll prepare it for you."

Sarah said quickly.

"Let me help you."

Spartacus said with a smile.

Sarah stared at him blankly. This is not normal Spartacus. He has never cooked for himself. Could it be that something important is about to happen?

"All right."

Sarah didn't refuse.

She made wheat porridge herself, and prepared cheese, bread and various foods for him.

With Spartacus helping, Sarah tried to lighten things up by finding something to say.

"I will launch a night attack on the enemy tonight. If I don't come back, you will have someone protect you and kill you. Then you will find a way to escape to Sicily."

Spartacus said suddenly.

"Can't someone else go?"

Sarah asked.

"No, this is our last chance. If I don't go, I will regret it forever."

Spartacus said.

Sarah looked at him quietly, and finally said softly: "I understand that no matter what happens, you are my hero."

Spartacus hugged her tightly and kissed her passionately.

After the two finished their last dinner, Spartacus left here, and at this time he was full of fighting spirit.

"General!"

"General!"

"General!"

"..."

Outside a room in the municipal mansion, two rows of guards saluted, and Spartacus nodded and walked in.

Ixion, Curius, and the three army commanders had been waiting for a long time. The rebel army used to have countless generals, but now there are only these five left.
