Ancient Rome: Beginning With The Legionnaire

Chapter 40 We Need Information Now

More than 100 Gauls entrenched on the high ground were quickly eliminated by the legion.

And Brian tossed Tails' head aside.

"Cateus, I have avenged you, so you can go with peace of mind, the 13th Legion is mine!"

3 p.m.

The 13th Legion held the northern entrance of the Red River Valley and rested here.

The Legion Tribune is reporting to Brian.

"Master Brian! After a brief count, we killed a total of 13,421 Gauls this time."

For this number, Brian is still very satisfied.

The entire Red River Valley has been covered with corpses, and the small river has been dyed red.

"What about our casualties?"

asked Brian.

"Participated in several brigades, the total number of deaths was 439, 127 were seriously injured, and 654 were slightly injured!"

In the face of the death toll of the Gauls, these casualties seem a little insignificant.

Brian wasn't feeling well.

Plus a brigade that Cateus lost before.

In other words, now the legion can only use the strength of 7 brigades.

The Gaul tribe on the opposite side has a population of more than 200,000. Although they killed 13,000 people today, the basic number is still there.

Sure enough, it is still a bit far-fetched to use this legion to shake such a large tribe with such a population.

"Rex, among all the tribunes of the legion, you are the wisest. What do you think of the current situation?"

Brian wanted to hear the opinion of the Legion tribune.

Originally, Rex would definitely oppose sending troops to Gaul, but after all, the head of the legion died at the hands of the Gauls, and this revenge had to be avenged.

But today, after a whole morning of fierce fighting, the 13th Legion killed 13,000 Gauls and killed the culprit of the incident.

"Master Brian! Although I understand your feelings very well, if we go out of the Red River Valley, there is a very high chance that we will be eaten by each other!"

Today, Rex has seen the madness of the Gallic tribes.

But often relying on his strong physique, he rushed up with a battle ax in hand.

If it were not for the limited terrain, they would not be able to deploy, and the legion's casualties would be even greater.

More importantly, thousands of Gauls have fled back to the tribe today, and they must have received the news in advance to guard against the 13th Legion.

If the 13th Legion hastily left the Red River Valley and entered the open terrain at this time, it is very likely that they will be besieged by the opponent's heavy troops.

This is also the reason why Brian ordered to rest on the spot, and did not attack rashly.

The Republic can bear the loss of several brigades of the 13th Legion, or even be disabled, but if the 13th Legion is wiped out, the eagle flag will be taken away.

Even if Brian came from a famous Roman family, he would surely be crucified.

"Right now! We need information, send out scouts! Take a look at the movement of the Talago tribe on the opposite side!"

Rex looked up at Brian and said.

"What we need now is not an attack, but intelligence!"

If he encounters the army of Gaul tribes, Brian can indeed rely on this person to fight bravely out of the encirclement.

But then his political future in Rome would be over.

Now that he has killed 13,000 people of the other party, he will not stop doing one thing and kill the other party's entire tribe.

Now what Brian needs is intelligence.

Unlike the Roman legion that was in a meeting, the Tarago tribe was already in a mess.

The elders in the tribe, and the two children of Rocktors, the eldest daughter Antabella, and the second son Roxter.

They all surround Rocktors' hospital bed.

At this moment, Rocktors, the leader of the tribe, was dying of illness.

"Have the Romans from the south come calling?"

Rocktors said weakly.

"Yes, sir, your..."

An elder was about to say that your son was killed in battle, but he was stopped by his companions.

"Ahem!"

Old Rocktors wanted to say a few words, but coughed violently again.

With his current physical condition, it is impossible to hold meetings and discussions at all.

"My three children, whoever can help the tribe through the New Year's Eve will be my heir, ahem!"

After Rocktors finished speaking, he fell into silence.

"Okay, everyone get out, let's go to the tent outside and talk!"

The great elder of the tribe said to the crowd.

Soon a group of elders and the two nieces in their hands came to another tent.

"What's going on? Why did the Roman legion suddenly advance?"

One of the elders asked suspiciously.

After all, the Roman legions had been stationed there for years without incident.

And this attack came almost without warning.

Of course, this is just the elder's wishful thinking.

"According to the warrior who escaped earlier, the day before yesterday, Tais secretly sucked a Roman army of 500 people. During this raid, he killed the army leader on the opposite side!"

And the Great Elder, who is familiar with the cause and effect of the matter, said slowly.

"So the Roman legion on the opposite side counterattacked at all costs and killed Tais directly!"

"Who killed Tais, you must know that Tais is the number one warrior in our tribe."

"According to the family members who escaped before, Tais was killed in a one-on-one fight with one of the opponent's generals!"

And all the elders present gasped when they heard the words.

Everyone knows that Tails is more than 1.9 meters tall and has infinite strength. He is the strongest warrior in the entire tribe.

"Who is that officer?"

Antabella seemed to have thought of something, so she hurriedly asked.

"It's not clear yet. The clansman was too far away to see clearly, but I can be sure that the other party is a Roman officer wearing a red tasseled crown!"

"And what about the Roman legions now?"

Roxter asked aside.

Of course, this is also what everyone present should care about.

The era of the Roman legions was a nightmare for the entire Mediterranean.

With the same strength, no one can defeat the Roman legion except the famous general Hannibal.

"They are currently stationed at the mouth of the Red River Valley!"

Roxter and Antabela looked at each other and said.

"We need information now!"
