91 BC
Castilla, Red River Valley.
The 13th Army, the most elite in Rome, is stationed here.
At the other end of the Red River Valley is the Tarago tribe, a typical Gaul tribe with a population of 200,000.
Almost all the people are soldiers.
Faced with Gaul soldiers dozens of times larger than themselves.
Even the most elite Roman legions did not dare to push forward hastily.
"Joining the legion is to make money! Otherwise, I wouldn't be willing to give them my life to the rice buckets of the Senate!"
"Commander Brian is right!"
"The rice buckets of the Senate are forbidden to take the initiative to attack, don't you know that only catching slaves is the fastest way to make money?"
"Commander Brian is right!"
Brian, 23 years old, with muscular and plate armour, riding on a Gallic horse, plus black hair and black eyes is a standard ancient Roman beauty.
And behind him is a whole group of ancient Roman soldiers.
Under normal circumstances, the Roman Legion consists of 10 brigades, each with 400 to 600 people.
Behind Brian is the 1st Brigade of the 13th Army, with a total of 560 people.
Today, Brian led a brigade of troops and ventured into the Red River Valley.
"Sir Brian! You mobilized the army without authorization. What if the captain convicts him?"
Legion Guardian Rex asked cautiously.
After all, Bryan led them to the Tarago tribe.
The Senate of the Roman Court has strict orders. Without the order of the Senate, no legion can attack wantonly.
And Brian was obviously deliberately provoking the war.
"Don't mention the damn Cateus to me! If it weren't for me, could you initiate a salary?"
Brian looked at the Legion Civilian Guard Rex with an unhappy expression on his face.
Under his threat, Rex, the regiment's civic guard, couldn't help lowering his head.
Since the reform of Mario.
The Republic implements a recruitment system, and the state supplies the army.
However, in fact, it was the army general who provided the army.
This is an era of relative peace.
There is no war.
There would be no slaves.
It means that there is no substantial income.
The entire legion was crumpled.
More than half of the Legion's financial expenditures were provided by the Kota family where Brian worked.
Because of this relationship, Brian also became the deputy commander of the 13th Army.
"Report! A group of tribal nomads was found one mile ahead (in Rome)! The number is about 300!"
Rome: 1.49 km
A leading soldier came to Brian and said eagerly.
"There are 300 people, even if they are all caught alive, they can't sell much!"
Brian touched his smooth chin and said thoughtfully.
Wait.
The Red River Valley is nearly 20 miles long from north to south (Roman Mile.)
And the front is extremely close to the station of the ancient Roman legionary.
What is this small group of Gauls doing here?
"ding! Please choose!"
"1. Let go of the Gaul nomads and reward 1 point of freedom attribute."
"2. Kill all Gaul nomads and reward 2 free attribute points."
"3. Catch Gaul nomads, no less than 100, and reward 3 free attribute points."
There are rewards for doing nothing.
It seems that these 300 Gaul nomads must have problems.
I didn't expect to choose 3.
"Order the whole army to advance, I want to see what they are doing?"
Brian waved his horsewhip and ordered the legion (only one brigade) to move forward.
"Sir Brian, you are taking the initiative to attack, the legion commander blames it..."
Before Rex finished speaking, Brian took a whip.
"Even if the blame comes down, that's my business."
"Also, this is not an active attack, but a defeat of the Gaul army that is preparing to attack the legion."
"No matter how much you do, you will be dealt with as disrupting military discipline and disobeying the command."
Brian snorted softly.
Rex is a standard Roman citizen, and the concept of the Republic is deeply rooted.
But other than that, he is still a qualified soldier.
After about 5 minutes.
The legion quietly advanced to a position 300 meters away from the Gauls.
I saw countless Gauls, and they were rumbling through the creeks in the Red River Valley with some unique tools.
"Sir, deputy commander, what are they doing?"
Polo, the chief centurion, looked at the Gauls and his eyes lighted up. All of these can be sold for money.
But he didn't know what these Gauls were doing.
"They are looking for gold!"
Brian looked at the skilful movements of those people and understood why they dared to take the risk and approached the Roman legion station. It turned out that this inconspicuous little Hanoi actually had gold.
"gold!"
Hearing the Roman soldiers around Brian, they all became excited.
The so-called raging soldiers will make a raging nest.
During this period of time, there are countless things that Bryan has taken to rob the Gauls in private.
The only difference is that they came here today as a Roman legionary.
I didn't intend to let them go, but now that I saw Gold, it was even more impossible for Brian to let them go.
"Polo! Lead your person and capture them! Block their way! Then wait for my order to attack together, and by the way, try to get alive!"
"Okay, Commander of the Legion"
Polo was so delighted that he even called out the commander of the legion.
At the moment Brian is just the deputy commander of the legion.
