Nova Roma

Chapter 247 - Terrifying surprise



Admiral Falacro let out a laugh "I didn’t know you could skip the discipline committee and kill with impunity, Leonel.

If you intend to kill at least let me participate, you know that I love to kill garbage. "

Leonel smiled and approached his friend Falacro to give him a hug "I’m glad you’re alive, listen to the news of the Nahual messengers about the death of sailors by the natives.

Although after seeing the disaster on the coast I can be sure that for every dead sailor killed more than 500 enemies. "

Falacro smiled and took a seat in one of the chairs in the room "It is a pity that the navy in the Pacific is not too powerful otherwise they would not have happened, but I have to thank the sharks for their help.

Although the result was somewhat chilling, you know how the casualty count was in the Atlantic and on the wall. "

Leonel took out a report and showed it to Falcro while he smoked from his pipe "We didn’t go bad but more than 2000 people died in this first attack and we have more than 5000 injured.

As for the preliminary death counts of the enemies, the numbers do not drop of 100,000 people between children and adults, the problem is that they are too wild to be human.

Even the Germans or the Caribs have ways of communicating, but they only seem to act by instinct, I have not found words to describe them, the real problem is that we have the bulk of our army in the north.

But the south lacks soldiers, the wall has already proved its worth against beings from the damn jungle but these natives do not seem to affect the restrictions of the wall, so they are a real danger. "

Falcro put his hand on his nose while thinking "You know what the empress plans to do to solve the problem."

Leonel shook his head "The emperor returned and it seems that he intends to strengthen your pacific navy and send Auxiliary to control the situation.

The cavalry also plans to leave it here, two weeks ago it began to snow in the capital so the temperature is not very pleasant for horses

A temperature drop is expected in this area but it will not be enough to cause snowfall. "

Falacro was surprised "I thought the emperor was on a trip in the underworld to punish Hades for insolence."

Leonel looked at his Falacro and let out a laugh "Falacro the emperor did not die, but according to the supreme priestess an event occurred in which the help of a large number of gods was required.

One of my friends in the Praetorian guard tells me that he could see a black-haired woman, a child and here comes the weird thing.

According to him, there was a young woman with red hair very similar to Princess Felix and he can swear that he saw a woman very similar to Miyuki, as if they were twin sisters. "

Leonel checked the room and closed the door of his office "Here among us it seems that the black-haired woman is a wife of Emperor Flavio and seems to be pregnant.

There is nothing official but it seems that the emperor added another woman in his harem. "

Falacro leaned back in his chair while looking at the ceiling of the room. "Perhaps it is true that the emperor is a monster in bed and that is why the steel empress had to resort to increasing Flavio’s women so that she did not suffer.

But in the end this is beneficial for us, the more children the emperor has, the more likely there is an heir or heiress who can lead the empire on the right track.

With the death of Caesar, the empire realized that if there is no successor there can only be a civil war, it is not easy to kill your friends because they are on the opposite side. "

"I forgot that you had to fight in the civil war ..."

At that moment one of the soldiers entered "Legio Leonel we are being attacked again."

Leonel put on his helmet and put his hand on Falacro’s shoulder "We have resources about three kilometers away, there are gunpowder and shrapnel to reload your ships.

I will have to fight personally on the wall to see what these damn natives can do against a well-armed legion with abundant resources.

We will make them remember Rome in their blood. "

After this Leonel left the fort and went to one of the towers of the door where he climbed the stairs while some wounded on the stretcher the nurses and nurses.

When Leonel went up he could see an image that would leave him marked, hundreds of thousands of natives charging towards the wall, far exceeds the descriptions made by the soldiers at night.

Leonel went to one of his tribunes "I need you to send a message to the Quartz Palace asking for air support and cannons for the walls.

Also, send the Beta legion, we are not facing beasts of the cursed jungle but human beings or humanoids for thousands. "

The tribune under the wall and took the message to the Nahual messenger, Leonel meanwhile began to coordinate his legionaries "Soldiers of Rome today is a great day to die.

Do not hesitate to spend your ammunition, we have to hold this great wall for today until tomorrow the reinforcements of the Beta legion arrive, let’s demonstrate to this garbage that messing with the empire and with the Alpha legion will be the last thing they will see.

The soldiers shouted "Roma Invicta" and began their carnage against the great horde of enemies, for the areas near the coast the canyons of the caravels launched a shower of iron balls against the natives.

The cannonballs destroy the bodies of the natives while they form a path of death where they pass due to the great concentration of natives, despite all this the natives continued to charge against the wall as beings without brains that only sought to advance ...
