Then another promise came, "After annihilation of Bendu cavalry, he would force the city of Helsonez to hand over more rewards, otherwise he would rob the city of three days."

"Don't drink them, as the heat will flow back faster." After Karabis returned to his speaking state, he stepped on the snow in the camp and told several centurions and the battalion officers, "Give them more fat, it's best to distribute them all before departure tonight!"

"Alaquigena Day! (Legislature belongs to the cavalry team)" After dinner, in front of the camp's main entrance, Hotenhus was leaning on a sword, his voice penetrated the whistling of the blizzard. The golden eagle flag in the hands of the flag-holder beside him was covered with snow and could not see his appearance. In the shouting and calling of Hotenhus, the fully armed "alae" Roman cavalry took the lead in stepping on the snow and rushed out. Then, Hotenhus shouted again, "Villains, walk in front of the queue!"

"Hey, sir, do you still recognize me? We fought side by side in Pistonia." As the vanguards walked out of the camp, a young soldier with four gold chains stared at Karabis.

"Of course I recognize you, you are the hero of the whole battle." Karabis punched the other party's chest and encouraged him.

"Mars bless me, I am very happy to continue fighting under your hands and be cultivated by you." The soldier saluted and went out with his comrades.

Next were the flag-holding officers holding grape scepters, various infantry and 100-man teams, auxiliary stone-popular soldiers, Bosphorus minion light infantry team, troop squad, and engineer team, one after another...

Finally, Karabis and Hottenhus were led by the veterans and escorting the eagle flag. Following the last part of the team, lit the torch that was blown back and forth by the wind, and walked step by step towards the direction of Helsonez.

At the city of Hersonnes, the Bendu cavalry and Scythians who were dismounted, attached themselves to the city walls like ants, and attacked the towers at the corner of the city with stones and rockets flying down from the city. Some towers were seized, but were recovered by the soldiers guarding the city. Several thick smoke drifted in the wind and snow, and the thinner it became.

In the temporary camp of Bendu people, the "Bison" Tuk Schiller, who was watching the battle, whipped his arms with a oxtail whip. The broken snow on his armor splashed from time to time. His raid met the city of Helsones, which was prepared for a long time. The current guardian of this city was not the garrison of Marca, but these people were only a small part of them. The main force was the army hired by the Autonomous Association and the Chamber of Commerce, as well as the volunteer troops of citizens. These people were fighting against the pirates and bandits who were haunting this rich harbor city. They had a lot of combat experience and Bendu people could not defeat them at all.

When the Bison learned that his baggage camp was burned out by surprise, his roar almost overwhelmed the blizzard, but when faced with the choice of "whether to retreat from the city of Hersonnes", the Bison was hesitant. He now found that he and the princess Adiana underestimated the enemy. He had calculated it for no reason, but he had not calculated the Roman Senate, but actually formed a new army and transported it to Ponticabien. This was the biggest variable on the battlefield. Otherwise, with the strategy of the princess Adiana, the city of Ponticabien had already been surrounded.

The Romans are really a difficult Hydra. They can fail again and again, but they will continue to fight with you. If you kill a Roman, you must first stab him in the vital point with a sword, and then push his body to the ground with all your strength to be considered as the result.

In the city, the fall of a tower finally delayed Tucsil. He looked at the wind and snow that was so close that he could not tell the cattle and horse, and was determined to take down Kelsonez in three days, obtain rich supplies, and then turn around to fight the Romans.

However, after a day and a half, the wind and snow did not diminish, but the "Hydra" suddenly appeared on the land at the exit of the cape behind him.

Stimulated by money and honor, these people began to dig trenches along the cape without knowing how hard the hard frozen soil was. Tucker Schiller was shocked and then he was silent. Maybe he had fought for the Bendu Empire for thirty years, and sooner or later he would encounter such a day - Bendu's army was divided into two teams, one team continued to besiege the city of Kelsones, and the other team began to attack the Calabis army coming to aid in succession, trying to break through, or they would be trapped in this narrow cape.

The Roman army was also divided into two parts. Some of them raised wooden fences and shields, holding heavy javelins, and the Bosphorus servants behind them threw hunting spears and stones outwards. Some continued to wave pickaxes and shovels, digging the trenches across the cape. The eagle flag of the Thirteenth Legion was also raised on a high ground, so that the defenders of the city of Hersonnes could easily see it.

The entire sky was filled with flying feathers and stones. When the cavalry of Bendu could not detour to the flank to attack the Romans, the power of their horses to fight was greatly reduced. In the ice and snow that lacked supplies, the body was exhausted quickly. After a day of fierce battle, the offensive gradually became depressed.

The next day, Tucker Schiller's cavalry actually got off the horse and began to dig trenches and erect wooden fences. This showed that Tucker Schiller was still fighting with beasts, but everything was futile. Most of the cavalry did not even have the equipment for engineers. By the time they dug only a shallow layer, the Roman camp had been extremely perfect and firm.

At noon, in the cold wind and snow, the Roman soldiers ate all the food they carried. Between the trenches and wooden fences, they arranged the offensive formation according to the 100-man teams. First, the Golden Bull Eagle Flag of the Thirteenth Legion was raised, then the battalion flag of the brigade, the flame flag of the brigade, and the small flag of the brigade, "The Roman dog is going to join the general attack. The three of their brigades are full." Opposite, Tucker Schiller, wearing fur, held his mount, and was holding his black armor.

His Hu Wang said that because he saw that there were six silver rings under the battalions of the three brigades of Karabis, this signified that each brigade had no shortage of gangs, and there were six full 100-man teams. Then the "Bison" took off the chain on his body, half knelt on the ground, kissed him on it, put it in the shallow trench dug by his soldiers just now, bulldozed it with his hands, squinted his eyes for a while, and said softly: "The warriors are absolutely worried about the battlefield."

On the other side, when all the Roman teams were operating after the fortification, two cavalry holding flags came from afar in the snow, then dismounted and looked at the crowd, and raised the token, "His Excellency Claudi, order this army to set up the city of Pontikabien to guard the Governor Marca."
