Roman Slave Owner

Chapter 272: Ambush

"What happened, General."

asked a general.

Misero Bazanis did not answer, but carefully observed his surroundings.

The dense jungle all around gave him a gloomy feeling, as if there were countless armies hidden inside.

At this moment, there was a burst of passionate trumpets, and a large number of troops emerged from all directions.

"No, there is an ambush among us. Kill back! Quickly kill back!"

Misero Bazzanis said.

But it was too late for him to say that the Roman army had already surrounded the Armenian army and then launched an attack.

Micello Bazzanis felt that the Roman army was everywhere, as if caught in a sea of ​​​​enemies.

"General, let's run."

Said one of his soldiers.

Micero Bazanis nodded, it would be foolish not to escape at this time, so he went back to kill under the guard of his own soldiers.

However, the Roman army formed a neat formation. They waved their daggers and harvested his soldiers quickly and effectively. His personal soldiers were reduced at a speed visible to the naked eye.

At this time, many Roman troops had discovered him. His exquisite armor and a large number of personal guards all showed his identity and status.

"Catch him quickly, he is a high official in Armenia, Micello Bazanis, the favorite of the King of Kings."

Caesar said loudly.

"It's you, Caesar."

Micero Bazanis quickly recognized the envoy sent by Li Wei, and he had received him.

"Death is the only end for those who defy Rome."

Caesar said proudly.

The centurions immediately scrambled to be the first, desperately killing Misero Bazanis.

Those Armenian cavalry desperately protected Misero Bazanis, and the two sides fought fiercely, but how could they be the opponents of the Romans who had an absolute advantage.

There were fewer and fewer soldiers around Misero Bazanis, seeing this, he let out a miserable laugh.

"Your Majesty, I am loyal to you, I hope my death can wake you up."

After speaking, he wiped his neck with a sword, and then fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Caesar felt a burst of regret, this is a man who is not afraid of death.

The battle was over quickly, with almost all the soldiers killed or captured except for a few who escaped, and the ambush that Li Wei had expected was completely absent.

After interrogating the prisoners, Li Wei knew the reason.

This made him a little dumbfounded, how did Tigranis get the title of King of Kings.

So he ordered the army to continue camping, and at the same time called all the generals to discuss matters.

Looking at all the generals gathered together, Li Wei said: "Now we have penetrated into Armenia, I hope you can cheer up and don't make any mistakes."

"According to the information I got, in order to enrich the local population, Tigranis captured a large number of Greeks, Cappadocians, Assyrians, and Godini here. For these people, we have to discuss with Tigranis Diehard Armenians in Nice are treated differently from Arabs.”

Levi did not forget,

During Crassus' expedition to Parthia, it was these Arabs who betrayed the Romans and brought the Romans to a dead end.

At the beginning, Pompey gave those Arabs a lot of land. It can be said that this is a group of ungrateful people.

And when Crassus attacked Parthia, they also resolutely took Parthia's side, so he decided to resolutely suppress the Arabs.

"Now we don't have much food, so food is our top priority. The only way to get food is to give food to the enemy. Those Armenians and Arabs must collect all the food, and don't give a grain of it. They stay. If they resist, kill them. If they refuse to give food, bring their whole family over.”

"Those ethnic groups who have been forcibly relocated, we have to win them over. Tell them that they can return to their hometown after this war, and we will also collect their food, but only 20% of the collection."

Levi said.

Lucullus nodded slightly, pulling and hitting, which not only divided the enemy, but also intensified the internal conflicts of the enemy.

Those Armenians and Arabs who have been robbed of food will of course hate the Greeks and Cappadocians, and even ask them to hand over some of their food, so that the Greeks and Cappadocians will only be more heartfelt them.

"Belieus, I will entrust you with the task of collecting food. In addition, I will hand over 2,000 cavalry to you. Be sure to do a good job in collecting food."

Levi said.

"Yes, General."

Belieus said hastily.

"As for the others, follow me and march into Tegrinosetta with all my strength tomorrow."

Levi said.

"Yes, General."

"Yes, General."

"Yes, General."

"..."

"What did you say? The entire army of ten thousand was wiped out, and Micero Bazanis died in battle?"

Hearing this news, Tigranis was taken aback, and even woke up three points from his drunkenness.

How come the Roman army has penetrated into Armenia and wiped out his 10,000 troops.

Were all the defenders of Mesopotamia pigs?

"Yes, there are too many Roman troops, at least one hundred thousand. We are no match at all."

A general covered in blood said.

In fact, he complained to Tigranis that the Roman army was so powerful, but they only sent 10,000 people to fight, which meant that they were sent to die.

But he didn't dare to reveal these things. Now everyone knows that Tigranis is a person who kills innocent people indiscriminately. If he says a wrong word, he may be pushed out and beheaded.

Tigranis couldn't sit still. They would not deceive themselves with the death of ten thousand soldiers anyway.

Thinking of Li Wei's 100,000 troops, Tigranis swallowed hard. He glanced at the ministers around him, and they also showed fear in their eyes.

"They really have 100,000 people?"

Tigranis asked again.

"There are at least 100,000 troops surrounding us."

In order to shirk responsibility, the general could only bite the bullet and say.

In fact, he said the same thing, although Li Wei left part of the army to guard the capital, plus the battle damage, the number of the army is indeed only about 100,000, and if the civilian husband is included, the number is about 130,000.

"Your Majesty, I think we should retreat first, and then call on the kings everywhere. With our strength here, we are no match for the enemy at all. As long as the troops of the kings from all walks arrive, we will fight the Romans in a decisive battle, and then we will be able to defeat the Romans." Roman."

At this time, a minister said.

"That's right, as long as there is a large army in hand, how can Li Wei be His Majesty's opponent?"

another minister said.

Seeing all the ministers persuading him one after another, Tigranis also felt that it made sense.

In fact, his heart is still very high now. As the king of kings who has wiped out many countries, he has his own pride.
