Roman Slave Owner

Chapter 130: ambush

   "Okay, but I hope I can postpone it for a while before killing."

   Li Wei knew that he could not change Sura's order, so he decided to use this order to make his next battle plan.

"how long."

"5 days."

   "Why?"

   Hadrianus asked.

   "We killed Pentius' son. He won't let it go. I guess he will rebel and come to rescue these Samni people."

   Li Wei said.

   "Do you want to beat them here?"

   Hadrianus asked.

   Li Wei nodded. He was always worried that the Samni and Lukanians rebelled together and then attacked Capua. Their combined strength is too strong, and he may not be an opponent.

   If you can deal with them separately, then things will be easier.

   He could use this to make a time difference and force the Samni to attack them actively.

   It would be much easier to deal with if it was just a Samny.

   "You must know that the Samni are strong, even if they are internally different, now they have formed five legions."

   Hadrianus said.

   Li Wei is indeed very strong, but the three legions are stationed in Kapuya. There are only three legions and a 3,000-man personal guard here. How could these people be their opponents?

   "Don't worry, I was prepared."

   Li Wei said with a smile.

   "Since you are prepared, I won't stop you, but I will report this to General Sura."

   Hadrianus said.

   "Please. By the way, please conceal the death of Little Pentius, otherwise he may not be hooked."

"Ok."

Not long after, by Sura’s order, the news that Li Wei would slaughter all the Samni and Little Pentius in Prenast City flew out like wings and quickly spread to the surroundings. With.

   After getting a letter from Hadrianus, Sura thought about it and agreed.

   "Just do as he said."

   "Don't we need to send troops to help? The Samni are not weak, and the men of his three legions are not necessarily opponents."

   Dorabella said at this time.

   "Since he said that, he is naturally confident, so you don't have to worry about it."

   Sura said with a smile, he can even faintly guess his next move, really a smart little guy.

   Telonia’s barracks,

"boom!"

  Pentius patted the table in front of him fiercely, and then said angrily: "It is really hateful to dare to slaughter our people!"

   "Kill it! We want Sura to know how good we are."

   "Li Wei, what a little **** kid is, then I will let him eat shit!"

   "……"

   The lieutenants around him said impassionedly.

   Seeing this, Pentius nodded, his military will be available.

   In fact, he secretly sent someone to negotiate with Sura a while ago. As long as Sura agreed to Qin Na’s terms, they would remain neutral.

   Unfortunately, Sura refused, which left him no choice.

   "Send my order, and the army will set off at once, aiming at Prenynest."

  Pentius said.

   After doing all this, he still didn't forget to give his ally Lucanians a voice, and he couldn't hesitate anymore.

   The logistics department of the Prenest Military Camp is crowded with people, and members of the Livy Guard are lining up to receive new weapons.

"what are these?"

   Someone looked at the newly sent dagger and said.

   "The steel sword of 10,000 dinars is exactly the same as the centurions."

   A logistician said.

"how can that be?"

   The soldier said with a surprised look.

   Wufa is also shocked, which is really surprising!

   "How can there be fakes, remember to protect your sword, you can't afford to lose it."

   said the logistics staff.

   The soldier nodded repeatedly and couldn't afford to kill him even if he killed 10,000 dinars.

   One soldier after another received the new-style steel sword. Looking at the steel sword in his hand, every guard was extremely happy.

   Every soldier likes good weapons, and they are no exception.

  Wu Fa has thought a lot. Li Wei has 3,000 guards, which means that this time Li Wei may have issued 3,000 steel swords.

   Could this kind of steel sword be manufactured on a large scale?

in case……

  If their tribe can equip this kind of steel sword, wouldn't their tribe be invincible.

   Thinking of this, Wu Fa's eyes flashed with heat.

   The guards received all the steel swords and caused a wave of waves, but under Li Wei's order, it quickly subsided.

   This time Li Wei brought 6,000 steel swords. In addition to the guards, he also planned to equip the First Army with 3,000.

   Originally, he had never wanted this kind of steel sword to appear on a large scale, but sometimes the world was so helpless.

   The five legions of the Samni swiftly marched towards Prenest. Due to the time urgency, the entire legion marched quickly without even the slave camp.

   Passing a mountain pass, looking at the dense forests on both sides.

  Pentius frowned. "Is this Latin?"

   "Yes, it's the only place to go to Prenineste."

   said a lieutenant.

   "Did you scout on both sides?"

   Pentius asked.

   "This...not very clear."

   said the lieutenant.

   "Send some soldiers to scout immediately."

  Pentius said.

   "The forest is dense here, and it takes a long time to complete reconnaissance."

   The deputy general said tactfully.

  Pentius frowned. Now he lacks time most.

   It has taken two days for this incident to pass from Preninest, which means he has less than three days to go on his way.

   "No, you can't stop reconnaissance just because of this time. Order the troops to rest on the spot and send two hundred-man teams to reconnaissance."

  Pentius thought for a while and said.

   "Yes."

   said the lieutenant.

  In the past, all the scouts were cavalry. Obviously, only infantry can be used for reconnaissance.

   Two centuries climbed the hillside and moved forward while scouting.

   But because of the dense vegetation and bushes in the summer, they can only use their weapons to open a way.

   Those infantrymen found a cool place to rest, drank some water and ate some dry food by the way, but they could only say that the weather was so hot that they couldn't bear it.

   The scout soldiers kept complaining. They drove so long and had to make a path when mosquito bites and itchy all over, so they just looked around roughly.

   Without knowing that a large number of soldiers were lying in ambush two hundred meters away, quietly watching them pass by.

   I can only say that the bushes here are too dense, and you can't see clearly after a dozen meters.

   After seeing the reconnaissance troops go away, a few soldiers painted yellow, green and green quietly climbed up the hill and continued to stare at the distant troops.

   Rested for an hour, but the soldiers only spied less than half.

  Pentius did not expect their speed to be so slow, but he still ordered the troops to continue to wait. The most feared thing was an ambush.

   Two hours later, a safety signal came from the reconnaissance unit.

  Pentius breathed a sigh of relief and ordered the troops to move forward.

   Seeing here, a few soldiers made a frivolity of bird calls, and then the soldiers quietly stepped forward, lying on the hillside.

   Li Wei wiped his face into grass green, and poked his head out to observe the army.

  Pentius rode on the horse, but his mind had already drifted far away.

   He regrets a bit now, maybe he should have sent troops long ago, otherwise his son would not be caught by them.

   At this moment, there was a burst of excitement on the mountain waves.

   The familiar voice, the melody of ecstasy, is like the voice of a certain army before charging.

  Pentius was taken aback. He looked into the sky and found a large number of javelins thrown from the hillside.

"This……"

  Pentius opened his eyes in horror, and then watched them penetrate the body of a soldier next to him.

   "Enemy attack!"

   "There is an ambush!"

   "……"

The Samni’s army was in chaos. They looked for a place to hide, but they couldn’t find a place to hide. Some raised shields to resist the javelin that fell from the sky. Live those javelins.

   "How is this possible? Didn't we conduct reconnaissance?"

  Pentius said in surprise and anger.

   But he knows that this is not the time to consider these.

   "Run me uphill!"

  Pentius said loudly.

   Some soldiers who received the order quickly rushed to the bushes on both sides of the hillside, but it was useless. A large number of javelins flew towards them with a rain of arrows.

   One by one Samney soldier was shot by javelins and arrows, fell on the hillside and rolled down.

   At this time, a large number of boulders rolled down from the mountain, completely blocking their front and back roads.

   Seeing this, Pentius was dizzy.

   It's over!

   completely finished!

   Li Wei watched all this quietly. The soldiers around excitedly shot arrows out. The craftsmen and slaves just picked up the stone and threw it down.

   The boulder rolled down the steep slope, and the bones of all the Samni who were hit were broken ~www.readwn.com~ with screams.

   There were still people resisting at the beginning, and gradually fewer and fewer people resisted on the battlefield.

   There was only a burst of screams, and a smile appeared on Li Wei's face.

   "Order the army to attack."

   A melodious bugle sounded, and a large number of soldiers rushed down from the hillside.

   They hardly encountered a big resistance, and even if they were alive, they would throw away their weapons and surrender.

   I hope Li Wei will let them go with compassion.

   Of course, Li Wei knew that the decision-making power was not in him.

   After counting the results, Leberis reported to him excitedly.

   "In this battle, we killed more than 11,000 enemy troops, captured more than 15,000 people, more than 500 horses, armor... Only the rear squadron and some soldiers ran away without knowing it, and the others were basically either killed or captured."

   Finally seeing the money back, Li Wei thought with relief on his face.

   "Good job, what about our losses?"

   Li Wei asked.

   "10 people were killed in battle, 23 people were injured, and some of them injured their feet when charging, which meant that there was no loss."

   "Good job."

   Li Wei said with a smile.
