Vol 8 Chapter 67: Leotizes change plan

"Yes, there are changes." Leo Tizedes's tone is always plain and lacking in passion: "West Kyle's harassment forces have defeated Carthage's 40,000 siege army."
Sipros thought that he had misunderstood and asked with surprise: "Is this true?! You are talking about the one-thousand-small West Kyle Light Infantry?!"
"I have never told a lie in the war." Leo Tizides stared at Shipros, but the tone was still flat: "I decided to change the plan I had previously designated and led the Eighth Army to Minoa to meet. Carthage."
"Okay! It really is a force, it is a commander in the middle! It is much better than the plan you made before!" The sound of appreciation outside the door, the naval commander Seklely strode into the conference room. .
Leo Tizides picked an eyebrow.
Sipros asked with surprise: "You want to lead the army to go directly to the Carthage people to fight?! This is too risky! There are more than 40,000 people in the Carthage army. Do you want to wear all the shoes in Sicily? The citizens of Onia are all gathered together!! In the event of a defeat, the territory of the kingdom in Sicily can be all dangerous! I think it is safer to continue to implement the previous plan!"
After all, according to the regulations, Governor Sipnos has the power to participate in military meetings and raise objections. Therefore, Leotizides had to explain in detail: "The previous plan was based on the judgment that the Carthaginians would send eight to one hundred thousand. The army of people, but they did not expect that they sent only 60,000 people, and 20,000 of them went to the North Coast. From the information obtained before, half of the 40,000 Carthage army was They are composed of Nummibians who are oppressed by Carthage. Their morale is not high. Only a thousand Western Celtic attacks can force them to retreat. This shows that their commanders' ability is not good.
According to intelligence, Carthage's commander, Monte Adeno, is eager to enjoy, does not like to be in the battlefield, does not love the soldiers, so he can not give full play to the advantages of more troops. Even if we have fewer soldiers, the Eighth Corps and its reserve forces have far more combat power and morale than the other side, and they can defeat them.
And we can't watch this Carthage army relying on more soldiers, slowly conquering one of our allies, kneading the whole army through battle and victory, and enhancing the fighting spirit and fighting power of the Carthaginians... It is very difficult for the Taiji army to conquer the south coast and fight with them.

"Your idea is right. The previous plan was completely passive. I just arrived yesterday. I heard about your previous plans. I wanted to talk to you well." Seklelyan is a sir to his subordinates. The big thorns of the muzzle said.
Although as a veteran of the Senate, Seclín’s qualifications and kingdom duties are indeed higher than Leo Tizides, but it still makes Leo Tizides feel a little uncomfortable, but he changed his mind to the military after him. The action relied on the navy, so it suppressed the emotions and said a faint sentence: "I am also according to the "Dianian Military Law", "all military plans must be formulated according to the actual situation." Changes have taken place, and the plans I have made will of course change."
Cipros is not like Cornelus, who loves to suffer. Once he is persuaded, he immediately asks: "How many people do you want to take to fight?"
"The entire Eighth Corps and the Fourth Cavalry Corps, as well as some reserve soldiers, are estimated to be around 15,000. Other reserve soldiers are stationed in the camp, and the allied forces of Leotini and Tonys are not drawn, they still need Prepare for the Syracuse people."
After Leo Tiddides finished, Cipros was once again surprised: "Is the Prososus, 15,000 people too little?!"
"There are a lot of things." Leo Tizides said with confidence: "I will entrust Hera's Crere to organize the soldiers of the Sikels and walk up the mountain to reach Minoa. And I lead this. 15,000 soldiers, disembarked by sea to the port of Kamanina, along the south coast, marching westward all the way, all the way through the friendly city-state troops passing through the ranks, when I arrived in Minoa, I estimated the army The number should be at least 30,000..."
"Oh, I was just in a hurry, I forgot Carmanina, Gera, Agrigento... these friendly city-states." Cipros exposed himself shortly, but his face showed a rest assured smile: "Master Prosuos, the decision you made is correct! Through this positive battle with Carthage, you can show the kingdom's blessing to the city-states who are close to us, and deepen their friendship through battle. !......"
Leo Tizides didn't think as much as Sipros thought. He just wanted to win. He turned to Seclean and said, "I hope that the transport fleet and the transportation of food and heavy weight can get you from Secorian. Rate the protection of the fleet!"
"This is the duty of our navy!" Seklely answered with enthusiasm, and the following words revealed his true purpose: "I can just protect you and help the fleet of Carthage to fight with us!"
..........................................
The news that "the Carthage army landed in Sicily and began to march into the territory of Dionia" spread to Rome, and the elders were uplifted. The dictator Camillaus believed that the time had come and immediately issued a "to the Helsinki." The command to enter.
Soon, he led the army of more than 40,000 people who had been assembled in Mars Square and composed of Roman militias and Latin allied soldiers. They went out of Rome and marched straight southeast.
The Helsnikis are ancient indigenous peoples of central Italy. They live mainly in the lowlands between the mountains of Herni and the mountains of Lepini. This is a length of about 150 miles and a width of only about 20 miles. In the low hills of the strips, there is a river in the middle of the Terreus. On the west and south of their area are the Walsi people next to Mount Lepini, to the east are the Masi and Equé in the mountains, and to the north are some Latin city-states, mainly Puri. Niester.
The Roman army passed through the Gabii of the Latin League and camped outside Punny Town at dusk.
The news that the Helsinkis heard the "Roman army attack" was very alarming and hurriedly sent people to ask for help from the Wolsey.
On the second morning, the Roman army continued to march south, passing the Latin League's Tolerium, and soon came to a town in which the Helsinkis were adjacent to the Latins - Signia. .
This is a small town in the foothills of the Leptini, the small town of Helsinki, with a small population, but the terrain is relatively dangerous, and it is an important passage for the Herniki tribes living in the mountains of Lepini.
Kamulus immediately sent 5,000 people to surround the small town and began to manufacture siege equipment. Once it was ready, it began to attack the city.
At the same time, he led 35,000 people across the Treps River and arrived at another important town in the Latin region, the Helsinki on the eastern bank of the Terreus River, in Anagna. Anagnia), another 10,000 people surrounded it.
And he led the remaining 25,000 people, bypassing the city of Anagna, and began building a large camp a few miles south of it, facing the central town of the Helsinki, Ferentinum. Look at it.
Previously, the Helsinki suffered a fiasco in the war against the Wolsey joint attack on the Roman Latin League. It was not long before the strength was restored. Where is the ability to organize enough soldiers to rescue The surrounding towns can only be huddled in various towns to strengthen the city defense, while looking forward to the rescue of the Wolsey people.
.............................................
When the news that the "Hernician territory was attacked by the Roman army" was transmitted to Polafornam, the top of the Wolsey Alliance, which was originally gathered here, was very nervous. They just repelled the Romans and still Discussing how to recapture the towns that were captured by the Romans, such as Antiuum, Willetley, etc., did not expect the Romans to launch another war on the east side of the Wolsey.
Amintas, who was invited to participate in the meeting, was puzzled. He asked in amazement: "The information sent back said, 'The Romans were stationed in Antibes, Villitre, and Satnikum respectively. Ten thousand people?! How many soldiers of the Romans have attacked the Helsinkis?!"
Polifunam’s governor Katai Mengtaros said helplessly:
The Romans did not have so many young and middle-aged citizens, but they also had many Latin allies, and many Etruscan city-states conquered by Rome. He is fully capable of launching another war in the battle against our Worthy! This is the terrible place for the Romans!"
I am afraid that the Romans are going to concentrate on playing a big fight! But we Dionya... Amintas thought that she had just added the first legion of the military source~EbookFREE.me~ secretly sighed: with the combat power of the Roman army, the first legion of less than 10,000 people is not enough Help the Helsnikis to repel the Romans' offense!
Next to Printoles, seeing the tangled look of Amintas, he asked: "Why don't you contact the Equis and the Masi to deal with the Romans?! I heard that these two races are close. The Helsinki, I want the Helsniki to be wiped out by the Romans, and the two races that are also incompatible with Rome will face the threat of the Romans!"
Selce’s governor, Toulouse, responded:
The Helsinki must have contacted the Equi and the Marsi. The question now is whether we want to rescue the Helsinkis?

"Of course, I have to go to the rescue!" Katai Mengtalos said loudly without hesitation: "Our Fabrateria, Frusinum... just in the Helsinki In the south of the territory, if the Helsinkis are destroyed, they will then be attacked by the Romans. When they go to the rescue, it is better to rescue the Helsinki now!"
