Chapter 20 Poison and Assassination (2)
Triali felt a little confused. He touched his chin and said, "Pompey just won a huge victory in the war to eliminate pirates. He is currently traveling in various coastal cities. The civilian guardian Mannius has made a resolution to demand that Pompey take over the provinces of Bitinia, Armenia, Phrygia, Rikdania, Cappadocia, Silesia and other provinces to take charge of the war in the East on behalf of Lukulas. The fathers of the Senate also passed this edict. But I heard that Pompey reacted strangely when he heard this news."
"What was his reaction, Your Excellency?" Sonagius asked.
"He immediately expressed his distress and displeasure to his staff. He patted his thighs, complaining about the chores coming one after another, and shouted why I can't end my service like an ordinary veteran and return to my hometown to reunite with his wife and children." Terry said, shook his head.
As a result, both Apis and Sonagios laughed with their stomachs, making Tria Li unable to touch their heads. "What a pretentious guy, but the civilians like this kind of person." Sonagios said, leaving the camp with Apis.
The night was deep, and in the camp in Bendu, all the generals and servants prayed for the serious injuries of the King of Mitradati. Timo cultivated to clear the wounds of Mitradati's thigh and stop bleeding. The whole process of Mitradati continued to faint and awaken, sometimes scolding the despicable Roman dogs, sometimes calling Taksil and Biduita, asking them not to worry about their injuries, and to defeat the Roman enemies in front of them as soon as possible.
In the end, the emperor's injuries were finally controlled, and everyone took back, leaving only Adianna at her father's couch.
Under the bright candlelight, Mitrada's face turned yellow, his blood and energy were lost a lot, and his breathing was very weak. He tilted his eyes, looked at his daughter with a worried face, and said slightly:
"Good girl, tell me, is it you who killed Naisa..."
Adiana slowly withdrew her originally melancholy expression and her face became cold. Then she looked at her father and nodded to admit it.
"You are taking revenge on my behalf, and you have continued her life and will... Ahem, I miss the days before. In the golden sunshine, you were so small, with your mother's face and my father's chestnut hair, holding the foal in the courtyard of the palace, smiling and turning... Ahem... At that time, I didn't expect that you would grow up, become as beautiful as your mother, and become as cruel as me..."
"Father, you shouldn't speak much." Adiana advised coldly.
"Maybe... the noble Mitra family needs talents like you, my good girl - will you help me defeat the Romans, use your talents? Ahem..."
Adianna's little hand was gently placed on her father's broad forehead, and her voice softened, "Yes, I will, of course."
When the princess of Bendu walked out of the tent of the coach, she saw Stratonis waiting for her while standing by the trailer, which was the black and swollen body of the other father, Obis.
"You are worthy of being a descendant of the Mitra family. You, a venomous woman, used the venom of Karabis to kill my father and my father, you gave him in advance, right?" Stratonice gritted her teeth and cursed.
"The lowly embryo, the key point of speaking is that Karabis is afraid of castration and fled back to the Romans. It's not my business. I have told your father not to interfere in this matter, but the lowly man is even tragic." After saying that, Adianna looked at the body of Obisus with pride, "Your father is just a musician, and he can still enjoy the funeral of the tall tomb in silk clothes! And you, the slut who bewitched your father, will not be so lucky in the future. You will be like a wild dog, your body will be thrown into the wilderness and your heart will be pecked by vultures."
"Unless your father is dead!" Stratonice whispered.
"There will be a day, do you think that day will not come? It will come on time and in time like the scorching sun of tomorrow." Adiana showed the beautiful dimples, smiled slightly, and left with her head held high.
When the sun rose the next day, there was a lot of sorrow and crying in the camp of Mitradati. The sound waves rose up to the sky, scattering the floating clouds in the sky, arousing waves of birds, which shocked the Romans here, while Triali was extremely excited: "This sorrow and joy means that Mitradati is dead. I have to hurry up before Lukulas arrives and get the full contribution!"
Just as the Eighth Legion was ready to check its weapons and equipment, and was about to cross the river to attack, Apis ran to Triali and made the final bitter advice, but the new commander who was determined to seek merit was deaf, and just laughed at Apis' indecisiveness and warned him not to continue to disrupt the morale of the army, otherwise he would have the full power to use fascism to execute him in front of the soldiers of the army.
Aspis, who had no choice but to stand on a prominent small slope of the river, staring at the soldiers of the 5,000 soldiers, almost all the essence of a legion, arranged in a regular formation, and proudly wade through the river and headed towards the camp of the people of the people of the capital.
He also saw Sonajius, who was following Terry Ali, and the other party rode on his horse. The moment he crossed the river, he turned around and looked at himself with a hopeless and sad look.
The outposts and the formation behind the people of the capital were successively pronounced before the Romans' offensive. They had no intention of fighting without Mitrada, dragging their weapons to escape, abandoning their armor and supplies everywhere. Triali refused to give up the opportunity and commanded the large group of people to continue to advance and go deeper.
Apis didn't want to see the "great victory" that happened on the other side of the river. He walked into the front door of the camp with a gloomy face and shouted loudly to all the soldiers and soldiers: "Brothers, no matter which legion you came from before, who was the leader you received, whether the injuries were mild or severe, now it is up to me to command. I am the military civilian guardian Apis. Jodel, I immediately order you to wipe all the armor, shields, weapons and equipment, bring all the crossbows and chamber pots to the tower, implement shift warning, and act like a real legion soldier!" Hearing Apis' words, many soldiers sitting in the camp complained in a low voice, and they had to stand up on their own and fulfill the instructions of their temporary superiors. The craftsmen and soldiers shuttled back and forth, strengthened the damaged parts of the walls, or repaired the defensive equipment.
It was snowing again, and it was sensational over the camp.
Helenputina, wearing a cloak and armor, rode a horse, and accompanied by Ella and El Capa, slowly came to Apis. "Commander, I'm very embarrassed at this moment, but we must leave." Apis didn't say anything, looked at the three of them and nodded heavily, and then made an admiring gesture, meaning "Even as a woman, I respect your bravery."
"You are going back to the Kingdom of Bosphorus, right?" Helenputina heard Karabis' voice. He was carrying the sheep head stone while unloading the words of the Queen of Amazon and came over to ask.
