"Here we come, my dear friend!" In front of the main gate of the Erwell camp, behind him stood his adopted son Lepidus, wearing a blue cloth Perudanitem general robe, holding a gold-plated baton, and jumped off his horse with a smile. Embrace Galius.

"Because I had to coordinate the ideas of some soldiers and generals, I arrived a little late." Galius also explained. Then he saw the outside of the coach's camp, all tall Celtic knights, leaning on their arms. Long sword, they voluntarily formed a new guard to defend Lepidus.

In the camp, almost all the distinguished law enforcement officers of the country, or tribal kings and chiefs within three hundred miles were gathered together, and the sound of jingling spurs was heard everywhere.

Soon there was a commotion, saying, "The envoys of Dethymus have arrived."

Lepidus closed his general's robe and sat in the middle. Amidst the roar of curses, the envoy of Deximus, the grass-head governor of Shannan Gaul, walked in tremblingly and saluted Lepidus.

"Token Officer, tell your superiors clearly what you think." Lepidah asked loudly, and then many chiefs began to draw their swords and shout. The token officer hurriedly expressed his intention, "Deximus is willing to join forces with you to attack the city of Rome together. He is willing to become a co-governor with you."

Li Bida laughed. Said "Poor Deximus can only protect himself. Does he still want to counterattack Rome?"

The token officer laughed helplessly and said that Your Excellency has also been declared a public enemy. Isn't now the opportunity to win over Your Excellency Decimos? With your army and Diximus' four legions, there is no problem in suppressing Rome.

As a result, Li Bida slipped in front of the token officer, and then said something softly in front of everyone. "Let me tell you a secret. Of course, you can also tell this secret to Deximos."

"Yes, yes."

"Now the rules of the game have changed in this generation. When you are the ruler of Rome, you may not need to be busy in the city, but it depends more on how many legions the person has support outside the city." After Lepidus said this , the token officer was confused when he heard it, but he was also sweating coldly. It seemed that the answer to the mystery that had shrouded the Republic for decades, someone had finally torn off its veil shamelessly.

So in the laughter. Deximos' token officer left in confusion.

Then several Aquitani chiefs shouted. The most powerful king in the area, King Averni, is also your adopted son-in-law Vercingetorius. He is still living in Galvi City to this day and has not come to join your camp. "If the cavalry commander needs it, We can go to attack this most fortified Gallic city, and the Aquitanians can send out three thousand miners who are skilled in tunnels to dig down the city of Galvi and help you deal with this unscrupulous young man. "

"The city of Galway is surrounded by twelve Roman miles. My adopted son-in-law has eight thousand cavalry. His brothers and nephews marry each other in the twelve surrounding countries, so his body will naturally be heavier. In addition, there is a huge Fanabun Mountain Range separated from Naibo City, which is very difficult to climb. I can give him some time. I will prepare a market day, pick up my cloak with a flagpole, and stick it on. In front of my tent - if Vercingetorius is not standing under the flagpole after a market day, I will go over the mountains to find him myself." After speaking, Lepidus took off his cloak, and Paluma hurriedly took it. He passed, then ran out lamely and did as he was told.

Then Lepidus shouted, "Little pigeon, bring me the map."

Paluma ran in again and put the map in front of his father. After Lepidah looked at it, he whispered, "You illiterate, you held it upside down."

As a result, the little pigeon hurriedly brought the map board over, and Li Bida pretended to look at it for a while, then used a dagger to cut the board in the middle and made a squeaking sound, "Gentlemen, the war broke out on this day - when The day when the Senate proclaimed the pardon of the younger brothers Pompey, Rabinus, Brutus, and Cassius.”

"Let this day be turned upside down!" All the Gallic chiefs present shouted, "All the Gallic warriors must avenge Caesar." It seemed that they all wanted to regard Caesar as their dearest and most loved one. Instead of the foreign enemies who slaughtered and conquered their tribes in the past, these are the Gauls, frivolous and impatient, who can be moved, angry, or shed blood by the smallest cause.

Then Lepidus also boasted and followed suit. He said that when the order of the Republic was stabilized, he would give the titles of friends to all the countries present today, and then massacre all those who were not present, and distribute all their populations and lands. Then bridges will be built on the Renus River every hundred Roman miles up and down to help the tribes of Gaul cross over, allowing them to freely conquer the Germanic tribes over there and wash away the shame of a hundred years ago.

Anyway, they just talked nonsense and got so excited that the Gallic chieftains drew their swords and hacked at the pillars of the tent and screamed.

"So my plan is - His Excellency General Itasus will immediately guard the border between Nebo and Shannan Province and keep an eye on Deximos, and then I will take the rest of the troops to my base of Sardinia. Yes, that is really our decisive battleground. As long as we firmly guard this gateway and cooperate with the infantry and fleet, we can split the Republic and all the provinces in the west into two, and most of the kingdoms in the east will surrender to me. The whole of Italy plus this long and narrow island will be caught in the middle - and then we intercept Pompey's remnants at the New City of Laconia on Sardinia. Naturally, others will make a fuss in the Apennines. In short, we will destroy the Senate. He is firmly separated from the troops he can trust." After Li Bida finished speaking, he threw away the dagger, "This is the battlefield I chose, as long as the situation is stable,"

"In other words, we have to fight Pompey's army." This plan aroused the pride of the chiefs. They had long heard that Pompey's people were first-class elites, although they had been annihilated before. , but just thinking about such a setting is still very touching.

"What does it mean that the situation has stabilized? Can you explain it more specifically?" Galius asked cautiously.

"Since it is revenge for Caesar, someone must be punished, and there may be capital punishment and execution orders." Lepidus replied, and then he said to Galius in distress, "You also know, sometimes If you don’t kill people, you can’t explain it to the soldiers and the people. Sometimes, if you don’t confiscate property, you can’t explain it to the donors and heroes..."

Vercingetorius rode to the banks of the Erwell River on the sixth day, with 3,000 cavalry and 10,000 infantry behind him. He wore dazzling golden armor and stood honestly in the robe of General Lepidus. He stood under the flagpole for a while, then dismounted and kissed King Numa's ring on the finger of Lepidus sitting opposite, "Please forgive my adoptive father, it took me some time to gather and prepare the army and horses."
