Printols was stunned, without refusing, and then said, "Okay!"

Then, he said to his adjutant Aristonos: "I need your help!"

Aristonos looked at Amintas.

Amintas waved his hand and said, "Now you are under his command."

"Yes!" Aristonos agreed and immediately brought the messengers to Printols' side.

"Immediately inform Setia, the Volsie people in the city of Polephonam, and tell them that we are intercepting the soldiers who were robbing food outside of Rome. The Roman army is likely to go out to battalion to fight us. Ask them to summon the soldiers and be prepared. Once we have a large-scale battle with the Romans, please come and support immediately!"

After Printols issued the order, the two messengers immediately ran away.

Printols asked Aristonos again, "Did you bring a record board?"

"Bring it." Aristonos took out a small black square wooden board and a white pen from the back of the horse's back. This was the standard for the adjutant of the Legion. In order to prevent the command issued by the commander in a fierce battle, it can also be used as a tactical illustration board. Aristonos has been in the staff, so he certainly knows how to use it.

"The camp marked Rome, Setia is about 2 miles south of it, Polefornum is about 16 miles south of it, and the camp we are going to build is 8 miles southwest..." Printols is worthy of being the think tank of the General Staff. He had just arrived in Wolsey yesterday and had already kept these situations in mind.

While listening to Printols's story, Aristonos marked the positions on the wooden board with a white pen and wrote the distance numbers on the center of the Roman camp.

Amintas listened to a few words, and with his temperament, he could not patiently analyze and calculate these data, he only had the final result, so he quickly walked away, looking at the north, anxiously waiting for the news brought back by the scout.

The cavalry of Rides were vigilantly watching the Roman camp not far east to prevent the Roman cavalry from suddenly coming out and threatening the safety of the generals.

In fact, Amintas didn't wait long.

Not long after Redes sent cavalry, the cavalry brigades that had been sent out before sent cavalry to report the enemy situation: "Report to the commander of the army, the third company of the Second Cavalry brigade found more than 100 Roman soldiers in the south."

“How far is it?”

“It’s about ten miles!”

"Report to the commander of the army, the 1st company of the Fourth Cavalry Brigade found about one hundred Roman soldiers eleven miles north."

...

As one cavalry after another rushed back to report, Amintas's face became more and more joyful. He echoed: "Printoles, are there more than a thousand Roman soldiers outside?"

"According to current statistics, there are more than 1,500 people." Priintols said immediately.

Adjutant Aristonos also presented the recording board with black and white characters on it, densely painted icons representing towns, camps, army and numbers that represent distance.

Amintas glanced at him and felt dizzy. He didn't look at him anymore, but said excitedly: "Don't wait for the rewards of other scouts. There are already more than 1,500 Roman soldiers. The Roman generals cannot give up on them easily. Grab them, lure the Roman army out, and fight them here!"

Amintas stared at Rides and Printols with a firm look.

Printols did not hesitate at this moment and immediately responded: "We should immediately notify the First Legion to speed up the march, and intercept these Roman soldiers before they return to the camp!"

"We also need to tell the First Legion that if there is a brigade, a company, and a troop of the army will be severely punished by military law!" Amintas said again, a hint of murderous intent in his stern tone.

"Yes!" Affected by this, Adjutant Aristonos also looked a little ferocious when he gave orders to the messenger.

"Amintas." Ledes rode on his horse and said to him with a serious expression: "I will rush to the north now, organize my cavalry, and try to slow down the Romans who collected food and grass outside to return to their camp!"

"Thank you!" Amintas said thank you very much. Although before coming, the Military Affairs Department handed over the commander-in-chief of the aid of Wolsey to Amintas, after all, he and Rides were both commanders of the legion and were at the same level in their positions (in fact, as the founder of the Dionian cavalry, he potentially had command of all the Dionian cavalry).

"You don't have to thank me. I also gained more military achievements for the First Cavalry Legion." Ledes said seriously: "After I leave, you must be careful about your safety!"

Received from Rydes, Amintas and Printols also took a few cavalry and left the Roman camp.

…………………………………

The First Cavalry Legion set out from Serche and began to attack the Roman cavalry cruising in this area to achieve the purpose of clearing the surroundings, covering up the eyes and ears of Rome, and protecting the First Legion's march and camp. In the end, they even went around to the north of the Roman camp.

In comparison, the first legion's march was much slower. When Amintas was planning to "lead the snake out of the hole", the first legion had just arrived at the selected camp. The soldiers had just put down their armor and weapons, and under the command of the team officials, they picked up pickaxes, wooden frames and other tools, and began to dig trenches according to the camp design carried out by the engineers after surveying the terrain.

At this moment, the messenger sent by Amintas arrived.

The captains received the order from Amintas, and despite their doubts, they blew the gathering horn without hesitation for a moment.

"Captain, let us put on armor and weapons, are we going to launch an attack on the enemy camp?" a company captain asked in confusion.

Captain Paltrowros shook his head and said he didn't know. He really didn't know what was going on ahead. The order given by Amintas was a little vague. He could only say: "Let your brothers quickly arrange the array. Our sixth team cannot fall behind other teams!"

"Don't worry, captain. Brothers will not embarrass you!" The captain of the company immediately responded seriously.

Although Patroclus was young, he had a high prestige among the soldiers. He had won military achievements many times and was a hero of the kingdom. Now he has a more than one identity that made the soldiers awe-in-law - he is the son-in-law of the great King Davers.

Six heavy infantry brigades, one light infantry brigade, one light armored brigade, and also the engineering battalion (because considering the possible attack on the enemy battalion), the reconnaissance team, with a total of more than 8,000 people, arranged into several columns, and under the leadership of the cavalry, they began to march north at a normal speed.

The soldiers were not dissatisfied with the marching again. Because the terrain of this area is flat and the weather in late autumn is relatively cool, the First Legion was very relaxed during the previous two hours of marching. The soldiers who were still physically strong were excitedly talking: Will there be a battle next?

After more than 20 minutes of marching, Amintas's messenger arrived again, and this time the order was much clearer: the entire army marched urgently, arrived at his position, and then intercepted the looted Roman soldiers from the battalion!

Kitsus, Patroclus...these captains were all excited, they gave orders quickly, and the sound of warlocks rang among the moving columns.

Soon, the shouts of the team officials came one after another, and the footsteps began to rumble...

…………………………………

After occupying Antium and Astura, the Roman army led by Camillus did not clean up the many Volsi villages in the area behind him in order to quickly advance to Setia.

Because the Volseys' reaction was quite fast, Setia and Polephonam entered the army. With defense, the Roman army had to build camps and confront the enemies ahead.

At the same time, Camillus sent various Roman squadrons to the rear to collect food and grass. On the one hand, it can reduce the pressure on the army's food supply, and on the other hand, it can take the opportunity to clean up these possible threats of Wolsey villages, such as capturing young and middle-aged men in the village, and crushing the resistance of the Wolsey people during the process of raising grain...

Comus was a squadron leader in Rome. Early in the morning, he was ordered to take the squadron soldiers to the north to raise grain.

Due to the previous raising of grain, the village of Walls near the Roman camp had been plundered and all the people ran away. Therefore, Conmus's squadron, like other squadrons, traveled nearly ten miles northward before discovering that a village had oil and water to fish.

He immediately rushed in with his soldiers like wolves entering a flock of sheep. After killing more than a dozen Wolseys cleanly, Conmuse's grain collection operation became smooth.

Just as the soldiers were escorting the Wolseys to fill the carts they brought with them and loading supplies into the stolen carts, a Roman cavalry arrived: "The Camilus military officials ordered you to return to the camp immediately, and an enemy attacked!"

Although Conmus felt sorry that there were still many supplies that were not loaded, he did not hesitate and immediately summoned the soldiers scattered in the village.

At this moment, he saw many black cavalrymen coming from outside the village.

This doesn't look like the Wolsey cavalry! Comus was puzzled, but the Roman cavalry who could answer his doubts had long been running to where they were.

Comus was not nervous at all. He was used to the incompetence of the Roman cavalry. He calmly asked 120 Roman soldiers to protect the load cart full of food, and also caught several Wolseys to pull the load beasts. A group of people left the village calmly.

The black cavalry soon surrounded and circled around their ranks.
