Assault on the Gaul Tribe

"Master Antabella, it looks like you can get nearly 30 pounds of gold today!"

An entourage happily held the gold in his hand and said to Antabella.

In just one morning, 300 people scoured nearly 30 pounds of gold.

Antabella, 19 years old, is the eldest daughter of the chief of the Gaul tribe.

Some people in the tribe claimed to have found gold in the Red River Valley.

So she came here with 300 entourage, and she found a lot of gold.

But Antabella couldn't be happy, there was a kind of anxiety lingering in her heart.

Because the other end of the valley is Rome.

An elite Roman legion is stationed there.

The distance here is too close.

"My lord, what are you worried about?"

"It's too close to Rome! Or order the people to retreat as soon as possible!"

Antabella finally gave an order.

"Don't worry! That corps has been stationed there for more than 5 years and has never attacked!"

The entourage said comfortingly.

This is why they dared to be so close to the Roman legionary station.

The Roman Republic has not expanded abroad for several years.

"It's better for people to withdraw! It's so disturbing here!"

However, at this moment, a Roman horn sounded from not far away.

"No, it's the Roman Legion!"

The entourage knew that this trumpet sound was only played when the Roman legions attacked.

"Order everyone, get out of here as soon as possible, and put down everything in your hands!"

Antabella said anxiously.

She knows the horror of the Roman Legion. Every Roman soldier is a professional killing machine.

Even the bravest Gaul warrior has no absolute chance of winning and can defeat a Roman soldier in a one-on-one situation.

The 300 people in her hands, more of them women and children, would be hacked and killed by Roman soldiers in just one charge.

When Antabella took the people and fled to the north.

It was found that a pair of Roman soldiers had gotten there in front.

They formed a tortoiseshell formation, just blocking the way.

"Haha! It's not that easy to run!"

The chief centurion Polo looked at the panicked Gauls and smiled happily.

His task is stuck here like a cutting board.

And Brian led the remaining people to catch up from behind.

Typical chopping board tactics.

Especially in this narrow valley, how to lie and how to win absolutely.

When the Gauls were hesitating, Brian led the man to advance quickly.

"Rex, have you seen it? The leader of this group of Gauls is actually a woman!"

Brian proudly pointed his finger at Antabella in Qun.

A woman can't command a group of people in Rome.

It seems that her status in the tribe must not be below.

"Catch her, I want to live!"

Bryan gave an order, and the whole army rushed forward like crazy.

"Come on, for the Gaul tribe!"

Antabella, holding a long sword in her hand, rides on a tall horse.

She noticed that the number of Roman legions surrounding her at both ends was only five or six hundred.

At most, there is only one brigade, not a full army.

At this moment she noticed Bryan who was charging forward.

He is in his early 20s, with fair skin, a thin body, and muscular plate armour.

Obviously the commander of this Roman army.

The only way out right now is to take down the Roman commander.

Normally, three or four men with long swords cannot get close to her.

Antabella is very confident in her martial arts.

Thinking of this, Antabella rode his horse towards Brian.

Brian's horse was clearly out of touch with the Legionnaires behind.

Suddenly found that this Gaul woman rushed towards him.

And shouting for the tribe.

Brian raised his horns slightly, and a single man charged up, really treating me as a soft persimmon.

Although Brian looks like an embroidered pillow, his force is extremely powerful, and no one can defeat him when the whole army is singled out.

"For the tribe!"

Antabella's long sword rushed up.

Brian escaped the fatal blow on the horse sideways.

boom!

At the same time, sweeping the long spear in his hand, the long spear's wooden handle hit the woman's abdomen, knocking it off the horse.

When the woman is thinking to stand up.

A dagger was already on her chin.

"Do not move!"

...

Face these ordinary Gaul nomads.

The battle soon ended.

Guardian Rex quickly counted the casualties.

"Sir Bryan, this time we killed 3 people and wounded 17 others."

Brian, on the other hand, was helpless, fiddling with the ancient gold mining equipment.

"Then how many prisoners and trophies have we caught?"

"Sir we killed a total of 157 people, captured 142 alive, and some pieces of gold, which weighed about 30 pounds!"

"Ding Dong! Catch 100 Guols people alive and get three free attribute points as rewards"

Having said that, Brian stood up suddenly.

There are actually 30 pounds of gold.

It only took a long time for this Gaul nomad to find so much gold.

"Polo! Take all the gold down and make sure that every soldier has 1 gold."

Not only Polo but even Rex was dumbfounded.

Because the commander of this army can take up all of your gold, but he actually wants to give all of the gold to his soldiers.

Roman pounds 330 grams

8 grams per gold coin

30 pounds of gold is worth 1,200 gold coins.

The purchasing power of a gold coin is roughly equivalent to 5000 RMB.

Already a large sum of money.

"By the way! Tell my brothers that you must seal up, and you must never tell anyone about gold!"

Polo suddenly realized.

Brian wanted to embezzle this gold mine, and now he is giving everyone a benefit.

Brian is the deputy commander, and even if the gold is not divided among the people, the soldiers can't say anything.

But for his soldier, Brian has always been generous.

"Yes, Sir!"
