"Sir, do you want to kiss everyone who passes by in a hurry?" Someone satirized the ancient Roman poet Palermo, who was a kissing and pornographic maniac.

Of course, there is a reason for Li Bida to be so confident. His secret letter to Paulus had appeared in the city of Lilibi, namely the tables of Sicily's finance officers Marclus and Maximus. They were ordered by the envoy Aquila to guard the place with most of the fleet, while Aquila was responsible for guarding the Strait of Messina in Meccana and was bargaining with the Senate.●⌒

Aquila's request was simple. He wanted to encompass the entire battle between Sicily and Sardinia, and so he asked the Senate to transfer the command of the Tlureas army to himself, so that he could enjoy the glory alone: ​​if Libida occupied Sardinia to resist, he could win with the army from Spain, because his own army was weak; but if Libida dared not do so, he could take the Tlureas army across the sea and head north to Rome and collect the best interests of the pacification situation.

But the Senate was very hesitant. Aquila and Tlureas betrayed Caesar, and their positions were equal in Caesar's memorandum. In theory, there was no question of who commanding whom. Therefore, the Senate just sent documents, promising to be in the consul's seat in the future, considering Aquila.

Therefore, when Aquila was still in a lawsuit in Mecca, a very serious commotion occurred in the dock of the port of Lilibi City on the other end of the Sicily island. The reason was simple. The paddlers and soldiers of the fleet were indignant of Caesar's assassination. They were ashamed of the envoy Aquila's behavior. They were also worried that they were betrayed by the chief's personal interests, so they began to stir up trouble and even rob the streets.

Therefore, when the "Two Horses" in the official residence saw the letters of Libida and Paulus, there were many flavors. Paulus's letters were full of persuasion and promised that after the two of them would succeed in rebelling, Marclus would be the envoy of Sardinia next year, and Maximus would be the envoy of Crete. He also warned them to make a clear decision as soon as possible, otherwise it would be too late to regret it; while Libida's letters were much tougher, and now declared revenge on all the oarsmen and soldiers to declare revenge for Caesar and hand over the city of Lilibi, otherwise you two would probably die directly in the chaos.

"After all it is time for a showdown?" Marclus sighed, and then he said, "Sometimes it is not that we have fallen, but that the times are changing, and it is difficult for mortals to see through fate and the choice of gods. At first we all thought that Pompei was so powerful. He was supported by the army and the Senate, and the entire state machine served his wars-but after Caesar crossed the Rubicon River, he collapsed thousands of miles and finally lost his life in Afilica."

"But now Caesar is dead." Maximus was unwilling to surrender like this.

"Caesar is dead, but most of the people and soldiers hope to avenge him. If the Senate is really reliable, why didn't they say that Caesar was punished by justice, but used assassination?" After saying that, Marclus finally made up his mind, "Call all the middle and high-level commanders to reach a command and a secret agreement. In addition, don't disturb Tlureas and Aquila, we will continue to sail to "receive".

At this moment, between the Oristano plain and the ocean, the six legions of Tlureas, including all the baggage and ships, were lined up in long columns, marching under the scorching sun and strong winds. Everyone was fully armed and lacked fresh water and food. Because in order to reach the coast around Kalaris in time and get the support of friendly fleets across the sea, Tlureas ordered all supplies to be "reduced" to extend the time of persistence.

Paruma led all the cavalry and bit the back of the Tlureas army, while Li Bida led two legions and light troops and followed the vanguard Paruma. Soon the morale of the Spanish army had problems, and many people could not bear the hardship and began to fall behind or surrender.

However, Tlureas was still inspiring everyone. He ordered the dry firewood and leather carried on the ship to be removed and cooked for the soldiers. "As long as we move forward for another day and a half, a fleet will come to pick us up!" Tlureas was still very confident.

However, at the moment of camping at night, the token officer sent by the Sicily island sent Aquila's message, "I have sent a powerful fleet and brought supplies to you, and I will meet you on the beach called Gebra, but at the request of the Senate, you must hand over the command to me after boarding the ship." This message caused Tlureas to be furious. He tore the letter to pieces, and then summoned all the generals to discuss, "I didn't expect that Aquila was such a narrow and selfish villain. He didn't think about how to help us fight, but to rob my legion."

Most generals were also very indignant. In the end, Tlureas decided to fight Libida. He set up a plan. At the junction of the Oristano Plain and Port Cararis, there was an important stronghold town called Corionice. The warehouse of the material inside was very large, and Libida should not be able to transport it all to the city of New Laconia.

So Telureas pulled all the remaining troops of the two Spanish auxiliary legions over and besieged Corionici; he led the other four legions and all the cavalry along the line of Corionici and the coast, and the ships were anchored at the mouth of the river into the sea, waiting for Li Bida to arrive. If Li Bida rescued Corionici, he would fight with him and crush the opponent with his superior strength; if Li Bida was unwilling to rescue Corionici, he would take the opportunity to capture him, obtain supplies, and then attack Port Cararis to seize all the ships and warehouses, then he could still be invincible, and he did not have to look at the annoying Aquila's face.

Before dawn arrived, Li Bida's scout reported the enemy's movements, "Tonight, use abundant supplies to reward all soldiers, and then set up a formation against the enemy, use our physical strength to resist the enemy!" Then, Li Bida came to Kangbano and called Yulia's servant Habaruka, asking, "You should be very familiar with the geography of this area."

“Yes, it’s like the backyard of the Opherune Manor, to me.”

Li Bida nodded and said to Conbano, "Select two hundred cavalry from the Twenty-Eighth Legion, and four hundred light infantry, and hundreds of pack horses carrying a large number of bows, arrows, and lead bullets. Follow Habaruka's guidance, he detoured from the side mountains to Corionice City to help the city strengthen its defense."

"Don't worry, all I selected were habitual bandits who had accumulated years in Lusitania. They climbed up the mountain faster than horned sheep." Kangbano patted his chest and promised, and Li Bida was also very satisfied. He treated different talents with the use of materials.
