Augustus Road

The next day, the elite brigades gathered by about two legions in Kaxi formed a formation on the beach, and then rushed towards the narrow position one after another. The Skylark Legion and the Seventh Legion also linked their positions to each other. , because the number was small, they formed a double formation without a reserve team. At this time, Macmillan's large warships were anchored in the shallow water on the shore. They all anchored and used the ballistas and bows on them. The bullets thrown out were overwhelming, whizzing away from the heads of the soldiers on the land and smashing them one after another. In the camp of the attacking Cassiyo army.

Over there, the fleet left behind by Kaxiyue also adjusted from last night's melee, formed a wedge formation, and pounced on them. Macmillan then let his own light Libourne warships circle outside, responsible for attacking and blocking. The current battlefield situation is that it is sandwiched between the coasts, with certain brigades of Lepidus' two legions relying on each other's fleet of Zifan pirates. Together, they fought hard, while Kaxiyue kept squeezing from the outside in an attempt to annihilate them.

As for the gains and losses of the city of Camelot, they were temporarily forgotten, and Cassio himself - he was just under the acropolis, with three fleets and the severely damaged fleet, staring blankly at the towering city walls and towers.

Someone persuaded him to take the cavalry and gallop to the outside position under his escort, supervise and command the legion, and eliminate Lepidus' disembarking team.

"No, I'm not going there. It's very nice here. I'll just wait here for Li Pida to arrive." Kaxiyo quietly stood with his hands on his hips in the shallow water of the harbor, looking at the messy amphibious battlefields around him. He replied stubbornly.

When he said this, the high priest Lepidus was standing under the huge statue of Juno, holding on to the small mast, watching the bow of the ship split the white waves on both sides, and behind him was the purple sail embroidered with the portrait of King Numa. Constantly switching the direction of the wind, "Don't worry about the headwind. The Cyrenaic sailors on the deck will use the jib to solve all this. All oarsmen are not allowed to stop. Use whips and marijuana to alert or anesthetize them. I will arrive at Camelos City within today." The high priest told Gable so succinctly, and then Gable raised a flag to warn the light fleet commanded by Aidanjis who followed closely.

The drumbeats and the roar of the waves echo each other rhythmically. The oarsman who was chained to the bench was naked, with veins protruding on his arms, and the corners of his mouth and face were covered in seawater, wine and sweat, but he could only rock the oar tirelessly.

That's it, even against the wind. The high priest's fleet can also maintain a speed of seven miles per day. In the evening, his flags appear under the city of Camelot along with the densely packed fleet covering the sea. In this way, the entire battle situation has been decided. Casio's two legions were thrown into the position under the city. They suffered heavy casualties under the day's offensive. At this time, after seeing the arrival of the high priest's fleet and the follow-up army, they all left He threw down his weapons, surrendered, and surrendered the camp.

That's it for Casio. He stayed there until he heard the noise and cheers outside the city. He actually understood in his heart: Although the two legions he belonged to were the most relied-upon combat forces of the Republicans, in fact, when faced with the choice between life and faith, they Most people will still choose the former. Ideas once made people passionate in speeches, but they have long lost their actual soil. They are not crops under the feet of farmers, nor work in the hands of craftsmen. It's not the sword or shield in the soldier's hand, it's just a brightly colored flag.

Now this only remaining flag is about to fall. If only Brutus could act early and not waste the precious winter in the wilderness of Epirus. To compete with that Agrippa—forget it, what’s the point of talking about it now?

Casio continued to stand in the water, took off all his cloak and armor, and threw them into the water. Then he pulled out his sword and said something. "Everything is over. Now that the flag has fallen, there is no reason for the flag bearer to live anymore. Brutus, Terenchia, no matter what you do, I will never face Lepidus' face. That's it. "If I kill Caesar, I will not regret killing any national traitor, let alone be afraid."

Then he turned the hilt of the sword over, pointed the blade towards his mouth, and uttered the last line of Greek verse:

"Death is the best relief from suffering."

After saying that, he drank the bronze blade, which penetrated directly through his mouth and to the back of his neck. Then he stood upright in the dripping blood for a few seconds, as if he wanted to continue standing with all his strength to feed Lepidus. Wusi saw that this effort failed in the end. He fell into the water, and his blood scattered in all directions.

Then, Casio's body was brought to Lepidus who got off the boat. After the high priest finished observing, he took the blue cloak from his body and covered it with his body, "Cremize Casio's body." He put the ashes in an earthenware urn and sent them to his wife Terencia in Rome, and left half of them to Brutus in Athens.”

Next, the Skylark Army, the Seventh Army, the Twelve Army, the Thirty-third Army, the Thirty-fourth Army, and Rufio's three armies all arrived in Luo with astonishing efficiency and speed in the next few days. Tokushima, the entire island now turned into a large military camp. In view of the heavy burden on the people here, Lepidus urgently summoned all the generals to plan the next strategic action.

In fact, now that Rhode Island has changed hands again, the situation has become very clear. What people are now concerned about is nothing more than the topic of how the Republican Party will fall.

There are only three routes. One is to land in the Peloponnese in large numbers and cooperate with Leo's frontal troops to attack Athens; one is to join forces with the troops on islands such as Lysbos and Chios occupied by Sabo to also attack Athens; and the other is to go ashore in Asia Minor and destroy Eulabella.

The high priest chose the last one, which seemed inevitable. Brutus' army was blocked by the ocean and islands and had no place to use its power. In addition, he could easily take over the region of Asia Minor and capture the rich cities there - because Eulabella now only has one legion, it is good enough to be able to protect himself, and he is still fleeing to the province of Cilicia, probably trying to get closer to the Parthian army.

"We don't need to worry too much about time. We just need to send three to four legions to Ephesus as soon as possible. Anyway, the keys to Rhodes and other places are in our hands, and Brutus is trapped to the end. As for Eulabella, we can select cavalry to pursue him after landing. He will naturally collapse. His military talent is not to be feared." The high priest said, and then he seemed to be thinking, "But this is Cicero's request. If Eulabella's life can be saved, then let him stay." (~^~)
