Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Vol 8 Chapter 133: Strike in Rome (5)

Davers sat in the middle of the big account, and in front of him was a large wooden board with a detailed map of the city of Rome. Tormied led the young staff to record the situation of the detective report. Mark it on the map with icons and numbers.

"His Majesty, the detective found about four or five hundred Roman soldiers about ten miles east of the city of Rome, estimated to be from Fidenae..."

"Your Majesty, there are troops from the Latin city state 15 miles away from the southeast corner of the city of Rome. There are now about a thousand soldiers..."

"Your Majesty, there is a Roman army in the southwest of our camp, about 5,000 people..."

"According to the messenger sent by the Third Army, the detectives found that Rome's colonial city, Vijay, sent nearly 2,000 Roman soldiers, and several Etruscans such as Kasera and Tarcuna. Yachengbang also sent two or three hundred reinforcements, and they are now rushing to Wei Ai..."

......

Daves listened to the staff's report and watched the map: the map was marked with red and black dots, the red dot represents the Roman army and the Roman reinforcements, the black dots represent the Dionysian army, and each dot mark With a thousand people, you can see that the red dots are concentrated in the city of Rome. The black spots are concentrated outside the city of Rome, surrounded by red dots. Outside the black spots, a few red dots are added over a period of time, slowly gathering into one. A larger encirclement, gradually encircling the black spots... This is a battle of encirclement and anti-surrounding, which is related to the life and death of both sides.

Davers’s expression has always remained calm, and the young staff, including Klotok Katex, have been a little nervous as the news continues to come. Even Tommy is a little unsettled. He said, "Your Majesty, from the current situation, our second legion and the fourth and fifth legions have the best offensive. They are likely to take the lead in attacking the city, but... the Roman reinforcements are constantly Coming, especially this Roman army -"

Tormide first pointed his finger at the southwestern side of the Dainian Central Army Camp, a flower-like pattern drawn from five red dots, and then moved his finger to the Third Army Corps on the north bank of the Tiber River. There are three or four red dots that are connected together in the north. "And here, I am afraid that it will become a big trouble for our siege army! Are we taking the initiative to eliminate this Roman army first to ease us? Not many defense forces?” Tormide’s hand finally fell on the flower-like pattern again.

Daves said slightly, and then slowly said: "Tormid, your opinion is correct, but we must first understand the movement of this Roman army, in order to take the right response. We do not panic, panic It is an enemy, because it is our initiative to control this battle."

There was a hint of a tone in the Daphus tone, but Tormid was reminded that his expression immediately relaxed. Some of the dignified atmosphere in the big account began to dissipate. The staff members whispered while recording the data. Henipolis watched the crowd and described the scene in the big account at the time. Mead also communicated to Davers about some plans for the next battle. Klotok Katex stood in the tabernacle and was ready to welcome the arrival of the detective.

The information brought by this detective ride surprised him: "The newspaper! The number of Roman troops in the southwest has increased to about 8,000!"

His voice just fell, and Daphus said with a cry: "Don't panic."

Davers smiled with a soothing smile to make Croto Kataks panic. He immediately replied: "Yes!"

After the staff heard it, they were also exclaimed: "8000 people?!"

Thormed looked at the map carefully and then said with a slight nervousness: "Your Majesty, it seems very likely to be a reinforcement from the Latin city-states such as Tustron, Aricia, and Bovine. They met with the Roman army!"

Daves did not look the same, and the words remained calm: "The place where the Roman army is located is close to Lake Alba, which has always been the center of Latin people, although Albalonga has long been destroyed by the Romans. Off, but it is said that the annual celebration of the Jupiter **** worshipped by the Latins - Latin holiday is always held on the Alba Mountains, so there are a lot of Latin tribes living near Lake Alba, it seems that they have spare capacity Sending reinforcements... But it’s just like this, the fish are all gathered together, just to let us catch up!”

Davers’s confident tone reminded Tolmide of one thing. He had a slight mind and sat back on the wooden chair. After thinking about it, he still said a little worried: “Now, I am worried that this Roman army will Continue to the east and join the Latin reinforcements in the southeast, in that case..."

"In that case, we are nothing more than mobilizing the army to the southeast to intercept the enemy, but for the Romans, this means that they have clearly reached the outskirts of Rome, but they have to spend more time to prepare and wait. Those are worried. Can the Roman civics in their homes have this patience?” Daves said without hesitation.

"Your Majesty, what you mean is... this Roman army is likely to attack us immediately!" Tormed asked eagerly.

Davers is about to answer, and the voice of Klotto Kataks is ringing again: "The newspaper, the 8,000-man Roman army in the southwest of the camp, is bypassing our camp and marching north!"

As soon as Thormed listened, he stood up and said nervously and excitedly: "Your Majesty, you are said! This Roman army seems to be attacking us. Their target is probably here!" ”

Tormide’s fingers point to the southwest corner of the Roman wall on the map. The soldiers of the Fourth Army and the Fifth Army are attacking the city there. Behind them are the Dionysian Central Camp and the West Camp ( That is, the huge gap between the camps of the Fourth Army, the Romans can quickly pass here, directly attacking the Dionya army that is attacking the city.

Davers also had the same judgment, so he stopped sitting in Mount Tai, but immediately issued an order: "Tormid, I appointed you as a temporary commander, and immediately led a brigade of the Fifth Army in the left-armed camp. A brigade of the Second Legion, two brigades of the Sixth Corps, and the First and Second Cavalry Corps rushed there to intercept the enemy! At the same time, I will send a squadron to rush to inform the two garrisons of the Fourth Corps and rush. Meet you!"

The six infantry squadrons and the two cavalry corps were close to 10,000. In terms of strength, they have surpassed the incoming enemies, but Tolmide’s face was not happy, but worried that he opposed: Your Majesty, there are only two teams in the Second Army and the Fifth Army, and it’s too dangerous! And two thousand soldiers can’t defend such a big camp—"

"Don't worry about my safety, don't worry about the safety of the camp. The more soldiers you bring, the faster you can resolve the battle, the faster you return, and the less stress on the entire battlefield!" Daves undoubtedly said And then his face smiled: "Or you are worried that you can't command so many soldiers, so will you find reasons to let me reduce it for you?"

Tolmide knew that this was a great Daves, but he also understood that Daves was not prepared to change his mind, so he no longer persuaded him to go to Daves in a military ceremony and responded forcefully: "Following , Your Majesty! Please also pay attention to safety!"

Daves jaws.

Tormide turned and wanted to go out. At this moment, Klotok Katax couldn’t help but say aloud: "Father... Your Majesty, I am asking to participate in this battle!"

Suddenly quiet in the big account, everyone focused on the young prince, even Daves himself was a little surprised, he had not had time to speak, Tormid hurriedly advised: "This is not good! His Royal Highness, this is too dangerous! The Roman army is rushing to rescue, and it is bound to hold a desperate mind. Our troops seem to be more than the other side, but half of them are cavalry, and the enemy confronts the enemy in a confrontation! Stay here, assist your majesty to command the entire battle, and finally win the victory of the city of Rome!"

“It’s dangerous for me, it’s not dangerous for other soldiers!” Klotok Katex blushes and exclaims excitedly: “I am a Diaonian citizen! It’s also this army. A soldier in the middle! Must contribute to the whole battle, instead of sitting here, watching other people fight, bleed and even sacrifice!"

Klotto Kataks said what he said in his heart~www.novelmtl.com~ At this moment, he thought of Brother Adoris and his former comrades who were training in Turai. At this moment they are fighting ahead or about to invest. Fighting, he can't allow himself to be a spectator like a coward. This idea has actually been brewing since he set foot on this land, so his tone is a little trembling because it is too passionate.

Davers looked at his son and saw the stubbornness in his eyes. He only hesitated a little and then simply said, "Let's go."

"Your Majesty--" Tomild still wants to persuade, Daves waved his hand and said: "Clotto is right. Although he is my son, he is also a Dionian citizen. Other children have to serve in the battlefield. Of course he wants too!"

"Thank you father!" Klotok Katex was excited, and was afraid that Tolmide would continue to persuade, so he loudly reminded: "The commander is an adult, and then the enemy's reinforcements will be rushed to the city!"

Tormide saw that Daves had a serious look and did not want to change his mind. He had to perform the military ceremony again and said, "Please rest assured!"

Daves certainly understood what he meant by "relief", and at this time Klotto Kataks quickly went to the military ceremony and rushed to follow Tolmide.
