Chapter 11 Reversal (Part 1)

"The daily needs of war cannot be accurately estimated at all." - Greek orator Robairus

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

"But I still won't kill you. I just want to get a chance to appeal, but no one gives me this opportunity." Caesar sighed, then waved his hand and said, "Little Katu is right. The most tragic thing in the civil war is that citizens and citizens take up swords and fight each other."

At this time, four municipal officials of Kofinium came forward with the files. Caesar took it and saw that it was Dumigos who had plundered the military resources of 600 Tarant in the Pinukem area. Anthony's eyes were straightened by his eyes. It happened that the soldiers of the three legions had complained about the rewards these days. Even Curio suggested that he, "Give one hundred Tarant to Kofinium City, and all the rest were sent to the centurion and soldiers!"

But Caesar handed over the files to Dumigos and said softly, "You raised these funds, and you are still the Roman consul, so return the money to you."

Now Anthony couldn't stand it. He told Caesar that he could never do this, because his current enemy, Pompei, is still in southern Italy. He still has many elite legions in Spain and Macedonia, and is rapidly moving towards Brindisi. In addition, Pompei was instructing the two consuls to unite and issue orders, "Now that the second-CEO has been captured, then the time for us to destroy Pompei's political advantage has come. As long as he and Marcelas cannot get together, many regions will no longer follow the orders!"

At this moment, there was a neighing from the north gate of Kofinium. Everyone looked back. But seeing Li Bida riding a horse, followed by a group of servants and guards, who rushed through the city and rushed here. Caesar immediately laughed. "Dumijius must not let him go, let alone let him take military funds!" Li Bida thought to himself, at least I could intercept the same amount of money from the income of the Holy Cutter. As for the reasons, he said that it was similar to Anthony and Curio's thoughts.

However, Caesar was still stubborn and promised the centurions around him. If you insist on it, I will definitely fulfill the reward problem. At least after chasing Brindisi, we will have the spare time to solve the money and official promises. But you must not stop fighting because of temporary lack. That is not a soldier, but only a refugee and a bandit. Of course, this is also said to Li Bida and others, because when Caesar mentioned "official promises", he deliberately pointed all of them.

In the end, Dumigos and Gabinus were allowed to leave. Li Bida watched them enter the city and asked soldiers to move funds, and immediately said to Caesar, "I have received information. Pompeii has sent reinforcements in the Capoa city. They should not be aware of the situation in Kofinium."

"You mean, eat this reinforcements?" Caesar said, squinted.

"Yes, I ask you to distribute the Fifteenth Legion to me, as well as Marco Anthony and Seerha. I will set up a pocket array in the hilly areas south of the city to annihilate the reinforcements. I suspect there is the chief brigade of the Spanish First Legion. If it can be destroyed, it will have a great inspiration for the entire battle." After saying that, Li Bida clearly realized that Anthony, who was standing there with a dull poker face, immediately became full of spirit, like a lion who smelled the smell of blood and the smell of copper.

After pondering for a while, Caesar approved the combat plan, "I just wanted to show all Italian cities that I, Caesar, respect the tradition of the Republic, and protect their property and security to the greatest extent. But this does not mean that I will not fight. Since Kofinium has declared surrender, then Pompei's legion will come here, which is a typical invasion - Anthony, go and command the cavalry for General Libida,

Erha went to command the infantry, and Curio and I were waiting here with peace of mind. Soon, the 14th Legion brought thirty brigades of new recruits, and I would come here soon. Before entering Rome, I would like to conduct a new organization and reorganization of the battle situation. I promise that there will be no interruption in the attack on Pompey!" After Caesar said that, he brushed the wooden fence with a horse whip. After receiving this signal, Anthony shouted, stepped on the horse and followed Li Bida Yangchen.

While they were advancing rapidly towards the south of the city, many Masi and Penilians in Kofinium City consciously wore armor and picked up weapons. About seven or eight volunteers from the brigade followed Li Bida one after another, saying that they were willing to fight for Caesar and guide Li Bida to set up positions because they were very familiar with the dense forests and hills here.

"The Caesars camp was dusty, and soldiers were running everywhere in the city. They seemed to be making big moves." At the entrance of the temple in Kofinium, several loyal entourages or centurions came to report in horror to the two commanders commanding the loading of money.

Gabinus quickly reacted, and he said to Dumijius with a slutty face, "It's over, we have asked Capua for reinforcements before!"

"Is Caesar going to take the opportunity to annihilate our reinforcements?" Dumigos gritted his teeth and almost fainted. Then he cursed Caesar's treason, but after scolding for a while, he felt that he could not be cursed. Caesar did so and could not find a reason to attack. And Gabinus muttered to himself, "It seems that Caesar will soon have three or four additional legions, the entire Etruscan, Pinukem, and even

In the future, Campenia will become his source of troops. To be honest, even I think it is the main responsibility of Pompei and Katu, the former is too arrogant and the latter is too stupid, and will vainly defeat the great areas and financial resources. Now we can only retreat directly to Kanosha in the south. If nothing unexpected happens, Pompei won't stay in Capua for too long. After we meet him in Kanosha, we will stick to Brindisi."

As for the reinforcements that Pompei rushed here, the two agreed: they could only leave it to fate.

At this time, the First Battalion of the Spanish Legion, holding the Golden Hare Flag and the Eagle Flag, had already advanced along the horizontal Palestinian Avenue to the 40-way distance from the destination Rome, after the battle, Vibrius ordered the First Battalion and the other three battalions to stop and select two hundred-man teams to occupy the high ground on both sides, be responsible for the alert, and then let the cavalry go forward and search, and the rest of the men and horses were arranged in columns to stand by.

After half a day, the ala cavalry returned, and the front was stable and there was no enemy situation.
