Two days later, on an open grassland to the north, an army of thousands of people was slowly marching,

It's just that everyone's face has a somewhat disheartened look, without any enthusiasm,

At this time, a cavalryman hurriedly came to the leading general from a distance and said,

"General, we will be able to reach the edge of that swamp in two days."

Hearing the news, the leading general just nodded indifferently, without any joy,

Because at the edge of the swamp, the danger has just begun,

And after passing through the swamp, he still has to fight against that group of fierce Chinese people, even if he can complete the task,

Destroy those people's supplies,

But no matter whether their mission is successful or not, they will definitely not be able to survive once the troops in front of the Huaxia return to help.

So now every step forward is a step towards death,

How can he be happy again?

Soon night fell, and after the general gave an order, everyone began to prepare for the night,

In the past, the discipline was fairly strict, but this time even the camp was prepared extremely perfunctorily.

Everyone is dying, and this place is deserted, and the nearest city needs a day's rapid progress to reach it.

Why do things so seriously?

The general saw all this in his eyes, and didn't say much. He just summoned officers above the centurion to start studying the next itinerary.

Facing an enemy like Huaxia, they must of course be prepared.

Holding the sheepskin map given by the guide, the general received it shortly after the introduction,

"We will reach the swamp in two days. Although a guide took us in, the guide also said that the swamp is changing every moment."

"In general, the direction of the route is correct, but you must be careful when walking. All the teams are pulling each other with ropes,"

"Let the quartermaster make more food for these two days. Anyway, we can't take too much away in this light raid."

The general told me what to do next.

But after listening, everyone just nodded silently.

Seeing such low morale, the general opened his mouth to say something,

But there is no way to talk about it,

Although they had the experience of raiding across mountains and mountains before, this time they didn't have the motivation to risk their lives.

For Rome?

They are enemies with Rome.

For family?

Their families were far away in Carthage.

The only thing that can be thought of is for their commander Hannibal.

But this time Hannibal was the commander-in-chief of Rome, and let them, the Carthaginians, die for the Romans.

The reason why they obeyed the order was only because of Rome's deterrence. They are here now, and they cannot be opponents of the Roman elite legion.

To enter is to die, to retreat is also to die, he even thought to himself, he might as well kill back directly,

It's just that his own commander, Hannibal, said that this is a war between civilizations,

If Rome fails, the whole world they know,

will be ruled by China.

And Huaxia is a real alien to them.

Think about how they treat other barbarians, and you will know your end.

It was these reasons that led him to bring people here.

So in the end the general just waved his hand and said,

"Go and have a good rest."

The other officers glanced at their general, but didn't say much,

What everyone should say has already been said, and there was almost internal strife at the very beginning.

But in the end, he still chose to obey the order.

They have respect for Hannibal from the bottom of their hearts.

Just when everyone was dying to disperse, suddenly a sentry rushed in and shouted,

"General, Tennett is here!"

Everyone was taken aback when they heard this, and the general couldn't help but say,

"Tennett, is she back?"

Everyone knew that Tannett disappeared not long ago, and they tried to find someone, but failed.

But now that the other party has suddenly appeared here, of course he will be a little surprised.

The sentinel nodded hastily, managed to catch his breath, and continued,

"Your brother is here too."

The general's face couldn't help showing a gleam of joy,

He has always been Hannibal's lieutenant general, but this time he is the chief general, and his younger brother is Hannibal's most trusted confidant.

He thought he would never see each other again, but he quickly raised his eyebrows and said,

"What are they doing here?"

He didn't understand what the other party was doing here at this time.

At this time, a centurion on the side thought of something, and said with some surprise,

"Did the general change his decision?"

He can only think of this one thing now, otherwise, if it is just an ordinary thing, there is no need to send the daughter he just found back.

The eyes of the others also lit up slightly.

The general and deputy general frowned at this time and received it quickly,

"Don't guess, let them in quickly."

The sentinel nodded, and soon everyone saw Tannett and his younger brother appearing in front of them.

Tennett walked into the tent, looked at the familiar faces around,

These people are all officers above a centurion in the army, and they are the core of the entire army.

A gleam of joy could not help showing on his face, this is a good opportunity.

"Tannett, brother, why are you here?"

"Does the commander have any important orders?"

the general asked quickly.

After understanding the words, Tannett glanced at his confidant next to him, who nodded at her,

Although the current situation is a bit abrupt, it is indeed an excellent opportunity.

So Tennett took a deep breath and said,

"General, my father has the latest order. Everyone stops and rests immediately, and then waits for the order to attack the Romans' rear city!"

In an instant, the entire camp became extremely quiet.

After a while, the others slowly came to their senses, but still no one spoke.

One by one, you look at me, I look at you,

In the end, the expression on a centurion's face changed from bewildered to shocked, and then turned into ecstasy. He shouted loudly,

"I knew it!"

"How could the commander let us die for those damned Romans!"

"So this is his plan! We can come here quietly to ambush!"

"Give them a hard hit when they're most relaxed!"

Hearing this, the faces of the others were slowly filled with ecstasy!

"That's right! I've long since disliked those Romans!"

"The commander-in-chief is the commander-in-chief! The raid plan this time is much more clever than the last one!"

Some people excitedly gave themselves two slaps,

"I was wrong, I still doubt whether the commander-in-chief has given up on us!"

"What did you hit me for?"

"I was also at fault, and I also doubted the commander-in-chief."

"Then hit yourself!"

"It hurts to beat yourself!"

But at this time, the general had some doubts on his face,

After everyone quieted down a bit, I couldn't help but ask,

"Why did the commander suddenly change his mind?

And never told me. "

He has been with the commander for so long, the other party is not this kind of person,

Moreover, the commander-in-chief's attitude towards Huaxia is still extremely firm.

It is said that although the Carthaginians and the Romans are from different countries, at least they have some similarities.

The Chinese people are completely different. This is a war between different cultures and races.

Hearing the question, Tannett was thinking about how to explain, and the confidant on the side quickly said,

"My brother, this is the genius of the commander-in-chief."

"He didn't tell anyone, just to prevent the Romans from knowing the news in advance~"

"He also knows that you won't believe it so easily, so let me protect Tennett and come here together."

Hearing this explanation, others did not have the slightest doubt,

After all, even if my general's younger brother might be deceived and bought by money or other things,

But they are aware of the relationship between Tannett and the Commander. The other party is the Commander's most beloved daughter.

Tennett can't betray the commander in chief!

Then someone said,

"General, Tannett has already come here in person, what doubts there are?"

"And it's impossible for your younger brother to pass false orders to harm you!"

The general was slightly shaken, he didn't believe that his younger brother would harm him,

But the order came too strange and sudden, so I continued to ask,

"Are there just two of you coming all the way?"

The younger brother returned without hesitation,

"This matter is extremely confidential, commander, and only two of us were sent here."

"Is there a warrant or something?"

The younger brother shook his head and went back again,

"The commander didn't give it, lest if he was caught, he would leave evidence for the Romans."

Naturally, they had already thought about what to do along the way.

Others also nodded, this statement is reasonable.

The centurion said directly,

"General, what's the point?

The commander-in-chief sent Tannett over to explain it! "

"That's right, General, don't ask any more questions, we'd better make preparations early."

The others also hurriedly agreed at this time.

The general could only nod his head, but he still said,

"Don't let this news out."

The others walked back while going out,

"General, don't worry!"

Soon everyone left here, and after a while, there were bursts of shouting from the camp outside,

"Everyone is too lazy to do anything!"

"Look at your tent, can people live in it!"

"Where are my sentinels outside! Who told you all to come in and sleep! Do you need more rules!"

Listening to the words of their own officers, the sergeants were all a little puzzled,

Didn’t everyone come here these days? Sometimes they want to do things, but they will be beaten and scolded by their own officials instead.

Why did I suddenly change after taking medicine today?

Listening to the movement outside, the expressions of the few people staying in the camp could not help but be a little complicated.

The general glanced at the two of them again. In fact, he still didn't fully believe what the two of them said.

Because there is still one thing that doesn't make sense with this order,

After betraying the Romans, what should they do?

Facing the Chinese people, the death will be faster.

unless…

The general's heart moved, he thought of something, and said calmly,

"Tannett, you disappeared at that time. We searched many places, but we couldn't find it. How did you come back?"

Tennett said quickly,

"I was captured by those barbarians, and then I ran into a Roman caravan and escaped."

This is a reason already made up,

The general nodded, as if he had no doubts, and then continued to ask,

"After you went back, you received an order from the commander-in-chief to come here?"

Tennett nodded, and quickly said,

"Yes, General, this matter is very urgent, please make preparations as soon as possible."

"At that time, you will need your younger brother to report back."

They can only notify the Huaxia people themselves.

But as soon as Tannett finished speaking, the general pulled out his weapon, pointed at Tannett and his younger brother with a cold face, and said,

"Why are you lying?"

"Have you surrendered?

Chinese people! "

The younger brother was stunned, he didn't know what went wrong with him,

But it was impossible to admit it at this time, took a deep breath and said,

"Brother, what are you talking about!"

The general said calmly,

"Your time is not right."

If it is true as Tannett said, after being rescued, he will come here directly with orders,

Even if you travel day and night, you can barely catch up.

But if this is the case, with Tannett's normal physical strength, he is already lucky not to die on the road, and it is impossible to stand and talk to him.

Hearing this, Tennett was stunned,

He didn't expect to show a flaw here.

Looking at the expressions of the two, the general knew that his guess was right, and his expression gradually became indifferent and said,

"Why did you surrender to Huaxia?"

To allow them to attack the Romans without any worries, it is only possible to reach conditions with the Chinese.

Knowing that it has been completely seen through, my brother was about to explain at this time,

Tannett on the side cried and said,

"General, we are definitely not the opponents of the Chinese!"

"Nor are the Romans! Resisting them will only get us all here!"

"Obey them, they promise to give us a piece of land to live on!"

Hearing this, the general revealed a look of disappointment and said,

"How can you trust the promises of the enemy!"

"Come on..."

General, I want to call someone,

At this time, the younger brother said without hesitation,

"Brother, have you ever seen a weapon that is a hundred times more powerful than Tianlei!"

"Have you ever seen a weapon that can carry people to the sky!"

"We've all seen it!"

"We will lose this war! Why take our people to die!"

Tennett even cried and said,

"General, I guarantee that what he said is true!"

Then explain clearly what you have seen.

Hearing this, the general was stunned. Even after hearing what the two said, he couldn't imagine what kind of weapons they were.

Can this really be built by man?

Fortunately, he quickly stabilized his mind, and then said,

"No matter how powerful those Huaxia people's weapons are, there will not be many of them. It's not like we have no chance."

"And all of this is not a reason for you to surrender."

"Come on!"

Following the general's order, two guards with serious expressions came in quickly outside the tent,

The younger brother couldn't help closing his eyes, he knew he had no chance,

Tennett even cried and said,

"General, you don't understand, you don't understand, no matter how many people there are, it's useless!"

"Our people will only die in vain!"

Her heart had already collapsed from the shock of those weapons.

At this time, two guards had already walked in front of them,

"Lock them up ~lightnovelpub.net~ and let everyone else come over."

The general said with a bit of fatigue.

It didn't end well today.

It's just that the two guards didn't move.

The general said involuntarily,

"What are you still doing?

Didn't you hear me clearly? "

The two guards glanced at each other at this moment, pulled out their weapons, and stood in front of Tannett, saying with a complicated expression,

"General, we can hear you very well."
