Ancient Rome: Beginning With The Legionnaire

"But! Becoming a citizen of Lord General, are you afraid that there will be some difficulties?"

Cachus knew he couldn't stop Brian with his size.

But he wanted to delay for a while.

After all, Brian said that Sortos was dead, and there was no real evidence.

"It is indeed difficult for you, who is not the leader of the tribe, to decide, so now, I will help you!"

Brian withdrew the long sword in his hand, then got on his horse, and said to the surrounding soldiers.

"Roman 13th Legion charges now! Smash all enemies that stand in your way!"

For ordinary Gaul tribes, the Roman legion was unilaterally crushing when the number of them was comparable.

What's more, most of the opponents are just farmers.

With just one charge, the Roman legion tore apart one of the opponent's lines of defense.

After leaving hundreds of corpses, they ran to the second line of defense.

Cachus looked at those slaughtered clansmen, his heart was torn apart.

In just 15 minutes, the opponent's second line of defense was also torn apart.

Nearly 2,000 Gauls have fallen to the sword of Roman soldiers.

On the Roman side, there were very few casualties.

"Master General, please stop the soldiers in your hands! We are willing to surrender!"

Brian snorted and said with a sneer. "

"It's too late! Now you have lost the bargaining chip!"

Brian turned his head and said to the legion clerk beside him.

"Regardless of age, anyone who dares to resist will be shot and killed! And for every slave captured, this general will reward him with 10 silver coins!"

Don't worry about Brian's soldiers killing all the people in the tribe, so he said he gave some benefits.

The clerk quickly recorded Brian's orders, and the Roman soldiers beside him showed wolf-like eyes at this moment.

You know, the monthly salary of Roman soldiers is only 18 silver coins.

If he could capture two slaves, it would not be worth his monthly salary.

Right now, the tribe only has 50,000 people at most, even if they are all captured and made into slaves, Brian only needs to pay 20,000 gold coins.

But the wealth of this tribe is more than 20,000.

"Master General, can you give us another chance!"

"I've given you a chance!"

Kill and conquer until sunset.

The Roman legion also moved into the tribe, and Rex, the tribune of the legion, faithfully made post-war statistics.

Killed 18,357 enemies

31,250 captured

The wealth gold obtained is about 200,000 gold coins.

200,000 gold coins are equivalent to the military expenditure of the Legion for two full years.

"This vote is well done!"

Brian stood up, rubbing his hands together.

This is the biggest deal he has done since he took over as the deputy head of the army.

After a pause, Rex continued.

"Our casualties!"

762 people were killed

546 injured

Brian asked with a frown.

"Didn't there be so many casualties in the previous battle?"

Brian watched as the Roman legions decimated the last of the Gauls.

At that time, there were not so many casualties, only a few dozen people.

And despite Brian's reward order, nearly 20,000 Gauls were killed.

"After rushing into the tribe, the brothers relaxed their vigilance! Some people surrendered on the surface, but then put up a desperate resistance! The brothers had no choice but to help you kill them all!"

Rex replied carefully, for fear that something bad would not provoke him.

After all, Brian opened a mine in the Red River Valley, which needed a lot of slaves.

"Only by killing all those who resist, can the remaining people be deterred!"

"Take out 6,000 gold coins as a pension for all the fallen soldiers!"

"Yes, Lord Legion!"

"There is also an order, the legion will set out early tomorrow morning, and let all the slaves return to the Red River Valley!"

Brian intends to return to the military camp in the Red River Valley as soon as possible.

And the Legion needs a rest.

Under the battle of the two legion commanders, the loss of the legion has exceeded the three brigades.

Now Brian has only half a legion of troops that he can actually use.

At the same time, the Senate Council far away in the Italian peninsula.

At this moment, the news of Cateus' death in battle has just arrived.

"Dear Members, please wait a moment!"

Towards evening, members of parliament are preparing to go home.

Consul Phillips entered holding a papyrus aloft.

During this period, Rome was still a period of double consuls.

In 91 BC, the consuls were Phillips and Sextus-Caesar (the Uncle of Caesar, hereinafter referred to as Sextus).

"My dear Consul! What the hell is going on? It made you stop, everyone who is about to go home!"

Sextus asked curiously.

"It's news about the 13th Legion of the Republic. Cateus, the head of the 13th Legion, was attacked by the Gauls and is now dead!"

The originally listless congressmen suddenly woke up.

In this peaceful age, the death of the army commander is very big news.

"And what about the rest of the Legion?"

Lucius asked anxiously.

Lucius: Brian's father.

"The letter said that 20,000 people from the blast furnace attacked Cateus, and there was only one brigade beside Cateus! The entire brigade was wiped out, and Cateus escaped with an arrow in the heart!"

All the congressmen present knew that an arrow to the heart would surely kill them.

"Then who is in command of the 13th Legion now!"

"It's Brian, the deputy head of the legion, acting as the head of the legion, taking revenge on Gaul!"

Phillips continued.

Upon hearing the name Brian, many congressmen present gasped.

That scumbag is commanding the legion, so there won't be any problems, right?

At the beginning, he was transferred to the army because he was afraid that he would turn the entire city of Rome into a mess.

wait!

The point is, he was taking revenge on Gaul.
