Brutu understood the soldiers' mood very well, but he also had his helpless side, that is, this hopeless battle must be fought!

After three consecutive fierce battles and losing the combat power of no less than a thousand people, Brutu's distress and depression reached its peak. At the same time, he received news: Kasio personally led a legion to ashore near Corinth, and wanted to discuss with him, whether he was stationed on the spot, or asked Brutu to approach his territory or Athens.￥f

So the philosopher gathered his subordinates, including the senior centurion, together again. He was so harsh at the meeting that he first acknowledged the failure of the attack on Bugalotum City, and attached it with the "it is impossible for our army to occupy Epirus in the short term."

Then Brutu asked everyone to say where to go now.

Sibalas and Karata Femius's advice was as usual, that is, after returning to Athens to obtain supplies, they would cooperate with the Casio to travel to the key islands of the Levant Sea and the Egyptian Sea as soon as possible, and prepare to sign an offensive and defensive alliance with the Parthian Empire. Before Libida takes action, suppress Syria as soon as possible, and then advance to Egypt. As long as several legions left by Caesars in these two places are conquered, relying on Egypt as a barn, there would also be capital to compete with Libida.

"Why can't we go around the Cessalia area and capture Agripa's retreat, and induce him to come out of the wilderness to fight?" Brutu still didn't give up.

However, this idea was firmly stopped by his subordinates. Sibalas believed that Thessalad was a barren mountainous area with rugged and difficult roads, and the supply would not be kept up. It was located on its main road. Lisa, Sarona and other cities belonging to Illyria. They have strong city defense armed forces and are loyal to Caesar and Libida. If they go there rashly, they may be passive and will be the ones who will be annihilated.

In addition, Sinesis also stood up and said that their Etorian cavalry had abide by the covenant and the loyalty and had reinforced Brutu for more than half a year and could no longer continue to follow. Because in the spring of the following year, they would need to cultivate their own gardens.

After hearing the request of the Allied Army, although Brutu felt very embarrassed, he stood up and stretched out his arms to express his wish to bid farewell to Sinesis and his cavalry. At this moment, the young and energetic Caratafemius also stood up and criticized the Etolians with righteous indignation and said, "The general often tells the soldiers that I will be invincible with you. But I will accomplish nothing without you. Now, although the farming in spring is about to begin, the war is at a critical moment to decide the outcome. Four thousand elite cavalry of Guiban are our magic weapon to defeat the enemy. Now that you want to put them all back to your hometown, is there anything more ridiculous than this?"

"But, our country and gardens are only managed by young children and women. If we continue to engage in war, even if we win, our home will be completely deserted, and the people we vow to protect will starve to death." Sinesis avoided Brutu's begging eyes and said so with some guilt.

"Don't forget how Li Bida used to treat the rebel city in this area. He once sold thousands of citizens into slavery at one time. The Ettorian League is now in the camp of the Republican Party. If we lose the cavalry support and fail to fight, you will definitely not be spared after the war." Karata Femius hit his chest with his hand, looking extremely excited. "Why can we sacrifice Athens, but you can't sacrifice the countryside in the mountains?"

"Is there any difference between a countryside and a city? In ancient times, you have been sacrificing the interests of others. Why do we Etolias ask us to bear all this?" Sinesis and the cavalry captains of many tribes were angrily dissatisfied with each other's accusations.

"We who are in the same camp now should not be glorious or perish together!"

Then, there was a fierce quarrel at the whole meeting. In the end, Brutu blushed and shouted, "Stop it all!" This was hard to imagine in his previous style, because Brutu had always implemented a democratic military system. Rather than saying that he was like the commander of an army, he was more like a fair and peaceful arbiter. He would not force his subordinates to express his views, nor would he forcefully suppress his subordinates' views. When he was hesitant, he would adopt a voting procedure to resolve the situation. He would never force his will.

But this time Brutu was sad, and he shed tears, "Why, why, traitors like Caesar and Li Bida who destroy the foundation of the Republic and act arbitrarily, can gather a powerful iron-blooded armed force at any time. Most cities and villages are forced to accept their bribes, or are threatened by their violence, and they are timid and dare not rise up and resist. But in our camp, once and now, they have gathered the most moral and noble figures of the whole Republic with the highest spirits and the highest spirits in the whole Republic.

, but he has been defeated repeatedly. Are cunning and cruelty really going to be rampant in this world? In that case, I have nothing to keep. I will not force any allies and subordinates to die for their ideas. I always believe that ideas require people to go to their deaths with great consciousness, which is also the most fundamental reason why they are higher than the world. Therefore, my most beloved friend of Sinesis, give me a hug. You should return to your homeland without continuing to follow me and step by step to the dead end."

After saying that, Brutu lowered his head and lowered his tears, stood still, slowly stretched out his arms, and then forced a smile to Sinesis and said, "I think it's better to leave with a smile at this moment. Take care of all the Etorians, and live well with the glory of the ancient state. As Roman citizens who are also proud of the state, you can definitely understand your feelings."

As a result, Sinesis was frozen there. He refused to embrace Brutu, and then turned to all the clan cavalry captains and said, "Although the Ettorian League has been declining for a long time, its glory and faith must be maintained by us. I hereby issue an order in the name of the state law enforcement officers. Men with families and families in the army can immediately get some clothes and rewards back; while single soldiers continue to fight with me, I will not go back myself, if Luo
