Chapter 90: The Truth
"Impossible!" Guy interrupted me rudely, pointed out of the tent, and yelled at me, "Their chief centurion has just told me that they are only going to build fortifications, and if he dares to deceive me, I will kill him!" ”
"Building fortifications?" It was the first time I had seen an army that had gone to build fortifications with only weapons, and they didn't even carry the most basic raw materials, so did the Burgundians have prepared them all?
"Sir, I don't seem to see any preparation for the fortifications."
When I said this, Guy fell into deep thought, and he paced back and forth in front of the two of us, as if my remarks had stirred up the worries in his heart now.
"Hey, Luga!" Just as Guy couldn't stop pondering, Andrew stuck his head over and whispered to me, "Are you sure, you pulled me over, and when something happens, I won't be able to escape!" ”
"Who knows?" I shrugged my shoulders, I wasn't sure about that, but I just felt that the soldiers of the Legion of Comrades really weren't equipped like building fortifications. I reminded Andrew, "Hey, don't you forget, you don't have anything to build fortifications, and the guys who fight wars have everything, so what's that for?" Dig a hole with a sword? ”
At my instigation, Andrew began to waver, and he kept nodding, as if he wanted to be firm on my side.
"Damn the beast!" Guy clenched his fist and smacked his thigh hard, he was very anxious, I think it must have something to do with Eagle Banner.
"Let's go, let's see!" Guy yelled at the two of us, took the cloak that was placed on the table, draped it over his shoulders, and strode out of the tent between the two of us. Andrew and I didn't dare to slack off, so we quickly chased after Guy, and quickly stepped on the path that the Eighth Legion had just walked.
"Hey, sir, I'm not allowed to go out now!"
Chief Centurion Guy walked up to the main battalion, and the soldiers in charge of the guard hurried to stop them.
"Get out of the way!"
Chief Centurion Guy didn't give any face, and directly pushed down the soldier who came to stop him.
"Sir, you can't go out here!"
Another guy got in the way, but judging by the yellow vertical horse on his head, this guy was a ten-captain.
"What! The gate of this camp is named, and they say they won't let me pass? "Just put down one, and then another came, and the chief centurion Guy looked even more angry, and he shouted at the ten-captain who was guarding the camp gate, "Tell me, who gave the order not to pass through this camp gate?" ”
"Yes, yes......" The captain of the ten was probably stunned by Guy's shouting, he couldn't say why, he didn't know if he was ordered to hide it, or if he was really shocked by Guy's questioning and couldn't speak.
"Say it! Who the hell is it! ”
Seeing that the ten-captain was speechless and stunned, Chief Centurion Guy's temper immediately came up, as everyone knows, this guy's temper likes to copy the guy as soon as he comes up, and this time is no exception. As he spoke, he pressed his hand on the hilt of his sword, which frightened the soldiers who were guarding the door and screamed.
Thanks to Andrew's quick eyes, he rushed up and grabbed the hilt of the sword in Guy's hand, and pressed down hard, finally curbing Guy's anger.
"Litollo! Commander of the Eighth Legion, Litoll! ”
The ten-captain was visibly panicked, and he trembled as he said the man's name. I was a little panicked after hearing this, because although I knew this for a long time, I didn't dare to tell Andrew, but I didn't expect this ten-captain to say it. At this moment, Andrew froze, and he froze where he was, presumably because he heard this name that he should not have heard.
"Hurry! Open the door! I seized this hard-won opportunity, and while the soldiers were still in a state of confusion, I hurriedly added fuel and vinegar, "Look at our chief centurion, this centurion is almost uncontrollable, I will tell you that when the time comes, it will be cut on you, and it will be useless for you to sue Marshal Aetius!" ”
Hearing my remarks, how could these soldiers, who had been a little hesitant, dare to go on in such a way as to be so unreasonable, they nodded again and again, beckoned the other hands to work together to push the wooden door open.
"Alright, sir!" I put my arm on Guy's back, pointed to the open camp gate, and said, "Look, the door is open!" Let's get out of here! ”
This sentence really has an effect, no, Guy, who was still yelling just now to give the ten-captain a good look, instantly quieted down. He gasped for air, apparently exerting a lot of effort. He pushed Andrew away, and Andrew just let go of his hand very obediently, and lowered his head, still haunted by the words of the ten-captain.
Just out of the camp gate, not a few steps yet.
"Luga."
Andrew stopped me behind me, and I looked back at his serious expression, presumably knowing what was going on. I took a deep breath and told myself in my heart that no matter what this guy Andrew asked, I would answer him truthfully at this time.
"That ten-captain just now was Litoll, wasn't he?" Andrew asked me, his tone was very gloomy, he must have been very serious in his heart, and what I said next must be the truth.
I turned my head and looked at him, not saying a word, just quietly waiting for him to ask a question, and nodded.
"The Litollo he was talking about, if I'm not mistaken, this guy named Litollo is the commander of our Seventh Gaimina Legion." Andrew's tone looked very calm, and he looked up into my eyes.
I didn't look too surprised at the question to which I already knew, on the contrary, my composure made me see a little surprise in Andrew's eyes.
"You've known this for a long time, haven't you?" He asked me with a glare.
"Yes!" I didn't shy away, but answered directly, and I saw that his expression was even more surprised, and there was a little bit of wonder in his wide eyes.
"You've been hiding the facts of this?" Andrew questioned me sharply, his expression seemed to indicate that he was very angry, yes, he was angry with me.
"Oh, oh, look at you."
Guy walked up to me, looked at me, then at Andrew, and said with a smile: "Two old comrades-in-arms who were born and died are now arguing whether your two bosses are dead or not, but now you give me the feeling that you wish he was dead." ”
"But! But I saw him dead, carried away by the Goths, and became their trophy! Andrew lost control, and he pointed in the direction of Worms and roared hysterically at me and Guy, "But now that he's back, he's not dead, and then he's gone to another legion, why?" Why! ”
"Of course he's not dead!" Guy spread his hand and said patiently: "That guy is Aetius's right-hand man, he didn't die so easily, of course, Aetius spent a lot of effort to redeem him, like," Guy stroked his chin and thought for a while, and said: "It seems that it is, close to tens of thousands of Oron, it's really a big deal, enough to form half a legion." ”
I didn't expect this Litoho to be so valuable, which really surprised me a lot, presumably this guy, he is also worth this price.
