After all, the existence of skeleton soldiers is completely beyond people's common sense. In this era, in this era when the gods have not yet fallen, in this era when there are still fantasy species and gods, these soldiers from poor backgrounds naturally regard these skeleton soldiers as monsters and demons resurrected.

Faced with the skeleton soldiers, faced with this supernatural existence, even if these human soldiers are stronger than the skeleton soldiers, they dare not step forward and try their best to stop the skeleton soldiers.

……

"What happened? Why is it so noisy outside?" Inside the central military tent, Lar, who was half asleep, was awakened by the noise outside the tent. He subconsciously turned over and sat up, and shouted to the guards outside the door.

Damn it, did the defenders in the city really send people to attack at night?

As Lal got out of bed and put on his shoes, his mind was racing.

If the enemy really launches a sneak attack and wants to do something, the number of people in the attacking team will not be less than five hundred. If you can kill these five hundred people, the enemy's defenders will be reduced by at least a quarter. In this way, when you attack the city next time, the pressure on your side will be much less. You should even be able to break through Jerusalem within half a day and occupy this holy city.

"General, something terrible has happened." Upon hearing Lal's voice, a soldier opened the door curtain and rushed in in panic. He knelt on one knee in front of Lal and said, "General, the camp... the gate of the camp has been attacked!"

"The camp gate was attacked?" Lar was stunned after hearing this report. Florus...is he thinking too much or what?

Generally speaking, night attacks are mainly aimed at tiring out the enemy. Due to the limitations of technology and the limitations of human functions, in ancient wars, the so-called night attacks were not aimed at killing the enemy, but at burning the enemy's food and grass as much as possible, or harassing the enemy, keeping them in a state of nervousness and unable to sleep. In this way, when the next day comes, the enemy will not be able to attack during the day because they did not sleep well the night before.

Therefore, this tactic of tiring out the enemy usually involves making a loud noise or scaring people outside the camp. If you really want to kill the enemy under the cover of night, that's not impossible. As long as you have enough troops, you can even perform a Thomas turn in front of their camp. But you only have 500 troops at most. How dare you break into their camp?

Do you think you have a long life?

"Hmph, since the enemy dares to break into the camp, pass the order down and make sure to keep this night attacking enemy force inside the camp!" Lar stood up and ordered with a sneer.

"But...but General, the ones attacking the camp gate are a group of skeletons. No one dares to rush up and fight the skeletons. These skeletons have already rushed into the camp, destroyed several tents, and overturned several braziers. If everyone hadn't reacted in time, the camp might have already caught fire!"

"What? Skeleton?" Lal was stunned for a moment and reached out to pick his ears.

Skeleton? What's going on? What kind of skeleton? Where did the skeleton come from?

"Yes, General. Suddenly, more than a dozen skeletons appeared at the gate of the camp. They were wearing tattered armor and holding weapons, and rushed into the camp!" The soldier looked a little panicked. After all, moving skeletons and the like, in this theocratic age, could have a huge impact on the worldview of ordinary people.

Looking at the panicked soldier, Lal took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

There’s no point in panicking now. Instead of wasting time on this, we might as well find a way to solve this problem first!

"Go and gather the personal guards first, and then come with me to kill these skeleton soldiers!" Lar certainly understood what kind of soldiers under his command were. If he wanted to deal with these skeleton soldiers, he would have to rely on his personal guards. After all, this personal guard was a local national army that had received orthodox training.

"But..." The soldier hesitated. Although he was a member of the Royal Guard and a national army that had received formal training, it did not mean that they were not afraid of unknown existences like skeletons.

"No buts!" Carl interrupted the guard rudely. He stood up, put on his armor, took his dagger from the rack next to him and said, "It's just a dozen skeletons. They must be the sorcery of the Romans! I heard that

Prince Odney knows this kind of evil magic, so don't be afraid, just kill these skeletons!"

"...Yes!" The guard hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted his teeth and responded.

At worst, I can just sit back and do nothing instead of doing it myself.

Under the leadership of Lal, the guards soon appeared at the gate of the camp.

"There really are skeletons." Carl muttered subconsciously as he walked to the gate of the camp and looked at the skeleton soldiers standing in front of him.

……

"Your Highness, a guy who looks like a general has appeared on the other side."

Just as Lal appeared in front of the skeleton soldiers, a young man next to Tony spoke in a low voice.

"Oh? It seems that the general on the opposite side finally can't sit still anymore." Tony smiled and whispered.

Tony could see what was happening in the camp, and Fang Zi could see it too. When Fang Zi saw a middle-aged man who looked like a general appear in the camp, his first reaction, of course, was to tell Tang Zhu who was lying next to him the news.

"General?" Tang Zhu's mind moved. If it was a general, then he could kill the general first and create greater psychological pressure on the enemy.

"It's time for the Dragon Fang Soldiers to appear!"

There are many kinds of familiars.

To put it simply, the creatures that a magician can control through magic are called familiars. Some of the familiars are similar to the birds summoned by Fang Zi before, and there are also supernatural creatures such as dragon fang soldiers and skeleton soldiers. Of course, if we really want to say, the most famous among the familiars are servants.

Compared with skeleton soldiers, dragon tooth soldiers are tougher and have stronger combat effectiveness, and dragon tooth soldiers are not something that ordinary soldiers can kill.

While Tony was attacking the enemy camp at night, on the other side, inside the Roman Palace.

A female guard holding a sheepskin scroll almost trotted to the door of Nero's bedroom, knelt on one knee, held the sheepskin scroll high in both hands and shouted: "Your Majesty! Urgent news about His Highness has come from Caesarea!"

……

"This stupid brother!" Nero, who was woken up by the guards, was already holding back her temper, but considering that this was an urgent report about her brother, she did not get angry, but chose to open the report and take a look.

Then, Nero finally couldn't help himself.

The letter was sent by Mary, and the content of the letter was only one thing, that is, Tony once again risked his life to launch a night attack on an army of 150,000!

Chapter 614: Dapeng Spreads Its Wings Repeatedly on the Brink of Being Beaten

Nero now really wanted to call his brother over and beat him up.

The fundamental reason why she agreed to Tony's decision to go after Florus was that Florus was the governor of the empire and it was impossible for him to really raise the flag of rebellion. Even if he wanted to do so, he did not have a single soldier who would betray the empire with him.

After all, the national army of the Jewish province is basically on the front line, and Florus has no soldiers under his command.

To put it bluntly, in Nero's view, Florus could not make any waves at all!

However, what Nero did not expect was that the Jews rebelled.

The Jewish rebellion made the situation in the entire Jewish province more complicated, and also put his younger brother, who was still in the Jewish province, into a more dangerous situation.

If possible, she certainly hoped that her brother would flee back to Rome out of fear. After all, the empire was in the hands of the Claudius family. As long as Nero was willing, she could disguise Tony's escape as a strategic transfer. Of course, this was the best case scenario, but also the least likely scenario.

Nero knew that based on his brother's character, he would definitely quell the rebellion in the province of Judea, but there were only 5,000 troops in the province of Judea, which was definitely not enough to quell the rebellion.

Therefore, Nero urgently transferred 50,000 troops from the front line to support the Jewish province. Whether the rebellion could be quelled was not important. The most important thing was that Nero had to rescue his brother from the Jewish province unharmed!

So she had only one request to her brother at this time, hoping that he could stay in Caesarea. As the second largest city in the Jewish province, Caesarea had strong defenses. If her brother stayed in the city, with her 5,000 elite soldiers and tall city walls, the rebels would not be able to do anything to Tony and the others, at least in the short term.

But! I didn't expect that this little bastard actually brought people to support Jerusalem! And the number of troops he brought was less than a thousand at most!

There are 150,000 rebels! 150,000!!! Doesn't this little bastard have the word "fear" in his dictionary?! When the rebellion is over, Nero thinks that spanking Tony may not be enough to stop him.

Just as Nero was gritting his teeth and preparing to teach his brother a lesson, on the other side, to the north of the Western Regions, on the southern Siberian grasslands.

"Your Majesty, the research institute has reversely deduced the coordinates of the Russian Lostbelt through space fluctuations and cut off this space channel. According to the institute's report, the Russian Lostbelt should no longer have anything to do with the Roman Lostbelt." A young man in a white coat stood beside Rosa and bowed his head.

"Really? In this case, the threat of the alien god is temporarily lifted. In addition to the intrigues among the imperial nobles, Tony also has to face enemies such as the predator planets and the Temple of Time... Has the identity of the owner of the Temple of Time been confirmed? Is it Solomon or Goetia?" Rosa touched his chin and suddenly said.

"Your Majesty, this...we are not very clear." The young man smiled bitterly and spread his hands.

"Too little information..." Rubbing his forehead with a headache, Rosa reached out and tapped the table lightly, muttering, "Three top bosses, Alien God, Predator Planet, and Solomon. Now Alien God has temporarily gone offline and can't affect this world, but... the other two, how to deal with them?"

Rosa relies on tricks to deal with the Alien God. No matter how powerful the Alien God is, he does not belong to this world. Since Rosa can't do anything to him and can't defeat him, he only needs to ensure that Tony is not defeated by the Alien God. The simplest way is to ensure that the Alien God cannot find the Lostbelt where Tony is.

However, Solomon and the Predator Planet do not belong to other Lostbelts or world lines. Solomon and the Predator Planet also exist in this world, so if Rosa wants to use the method of solving the Alien God to solve Solomon and the Predator Planet, it is not very realistic.

"It's easy to capture a wandering star. Its cycle hasn't come to an end yet. Right now, there's only one wandering star scout on Earth. The most troublesome one is Solomon... or rather, Goetia."

Rosa couldn't help but sigh when she thought of Solomon.

Obviously, the Solomon/Goetia in this world is not quite the same as the one in pan-human history.

But this is not pan-human history, this is an anomalous zone with no future.

Rosa had previously speculated that the reason why Solomon/Goetia chose to incinerate this Lostbelt might be because he chose to destroy the world in order to save Tony, but...what does Solomon plan to do, how is he going to incinerate this world?

……

Let's turn our attention to Tony.

Sometimes, one has to admire Tony's luck.

Originally, Tony led his team to launch a surprise attack on the rebel camp. His purpose was nothing more than to scare the rebels and prevent them from sleeping well, thereby reducing the pressure on Jerusalem as much as possible. That's why he asked Don Zhu to create skeleton soldiers to scare the rebels.

Then, the enemy sent out a general.

Of course Tony would not miss this opportunity. Under his order, Don Zhu mobilized several of his Dragon Tooth Soldiers and cooperated with the Skeleton Soldiers to successfully kill the guy who looked like a general.

"General!!!" The moment Lar fell, several surviving guardsmen screamed subconsciously.

"General... The general is dead! The general was killed by the skeleton!" A moment later, more than a dozen rebel soldiers screamed and fled. They screamed loudly while running for their lives. Soon, the news of the general's death quickly spread throughout the camp.

"The general is dead?" A general who had just woken up was adjusting his armor. When he heard the news, he was completely stunned.

The general died? Or was he killed by the skeleton?

Although he didn't understand where the skeleton came from, the general at least understood one thing: without the great general, the entire camp was leaderless and without a unified command. The morale of the army was in turmoil, and if the enemy took the opportunity to attack, then... the camp would be destroyed for sure.

Of course Tony would not miss this opportunity.

"Who? The general is dead?" Outside the camp, Tony, who had only wanted to scare the enemy, was subconsciously stunned when he heard the news. Then he quickly stood up and shouted, "Cavalry, mount your horses and follow me to kill the enemy!"

Chapter 615: Luck

Tony has always been curious about what Rosa's Executioner Organization is like.

According to what Alexei said before, the Executioner Organization will span more than fifty parallel worlds in the future, and the core members of the organization will also be more than fifty executors.

From this, it is not difficult for Tony to judge that the Executioner Organization has its own executor in each world. In other words, the executor is Rosa's agent in this world and the wedge he drives into this world.

But what standards did Rosa use to recruit executors? In the executor organization, there are people like Rosa who have a ceiling in combat power, and there are also people who are just waiting to die and have no ability. What standards does he use to recruit executors? Why do those executors with great abilities have no complaints when they get together with these useless executors?

Now, with Lar dead in battle, Tony felt that he should understand. He understood what Rosa's criteria were for recruiting executors.

Good luck!

On the way here, he had a brief chat with Alexi about the executor organization and asked him about the executors. Alexi did not hide anything about these things, and he learned many little secrets from them. Combined with the situation tonight, it seems that Rosa's standard for recruiting executors is luck.

Tony's original plan was just to keep the rebels awake, but he accidentally killed the enemy's general, which led to the explosion of the camp. What is this? This is good luck. Even further back, Xiao Yun's bus on his way home from work had an accident. Xiao Yun, who should have died in the car accident, traveled to this world and became Tony. This is also good luck.

Similarly, Shen Xiaofan, the executor who can be called the "Queen of War", was just an ordinary maid cafe clerk before she ruled the world. She was the No. 3 executor in the organization and was regarded as Rosa's substitute. Before she met Rosa, she was devastated by the pressure of life and decided to commit suicide. She met Rosa the day before she committed suicide and changed her destiny. It was all luck.

Alexei even said that Rosa was originally an ordinary child. The reason why he was able to obtain unparalleled superpowers in the end and build an empire of superpowers that could compete with superpowers was because he was incredibly lucky.

Therefore, Tony has reason to believe that Rosa's recruitment of executors depends entirely on who has good luck and who is qualified to become the executor.

……

The battle continues.

Lar was killed in the battle, and the entire army was leaderless. The generals under his command could only act on their own. The entire camp was in chaos, and the overturned braziers caught fire on the tents. In the chaos, many soldiers were trampled to death by their comrades. With the messages everywhere, for a while, the generals in the camp didn't know what to do.

Some generals organized their troops to defend on the spot, some generals planned to see if there was any chance of counterattack. Of course, more generals thought about abandoning their subordinates and running away secretly.

However, there was no way Tony would allow these generals to escape secretly.

Under Tony's order, the cavalry and the eight guards were dispatched collectively. The cavalry was responsible for driving the ordinary soldiers back to the camp or running away. In short, Tony's order was that as long as the ordinary soldiers did not take the initiative to attack the cavalry units, then correspondingly, the imperial cavalry could not take the initiative to attack the rebel soldiers.

After all, after the rebellion was over, the Roman Empire would still rule this province, and these rebel soldiers were still... Romans after all.

Tony would let these soldiers or low-ranking officers go, but when faced with those escaped senior generals, the Eight Pass Warriors would not be so kind.

"It's about time to send the monks to finish off the mess." Tony sighed and said to himself as he looked at the flames all over the camp.

……

If the camp had not been bombed, even if all the troops under Tony were elite, with just 150,000 troops passing by, Tony's army of a thousand people would probably have been crushed. However, this is war, there are no ifs.

The monks advanced, the cavalry patrolled around the camp, and the eight guards were deployed in groups of two to hunt down generals at all levels. In this chaotic situation, the ordinary soldiers at the bottom of the Jewish rebels had no idea how many people the Roman Empire had sent. They could only guess and estimate based on their own understanding. They had enough reason to believe that the main force of the Roman Empire on the front line had returned and came to the Jewish province to suppress the disturbance!

……

When it was bright, the city gates of Jerusalem not far away finally opened, and a cavalry of more than a dozen people rushed out of the city and came to the camp.

"This..." Looking at the rebel camp shrouded in smoke, the cavalry captain opened his mouth in shock, unable to speak.

Of the 150,000 rebels, only 300 were killed by the Romans in this war. In addition to these 300, more than 2,000 died in the chaos, trampled by their own comrades, and more rebels... were so frightened that no one knew where they fled.

Regardless of whether it was luck or something else, at least in the eyes of this cavalry captain, His Royal Highness Prince Odney, who led less than a thousand men, defeated 150,000 rebels!

This was a great victory! A great victory that could be celebrated by the entire Jewish province and passed down through the ages!

"Your Highness!" After confirming the identity of the young man in front of him, the cavalry captain carefully escorted Tony into the city of Jerusalem.

Under Florus' arrangement, Tony had a good sleep in the Governor's Palace. Near evening, after waking up, Tony put on his clothes with the help of Mary, and summoned Florus in the Governor's Palace.

"Long time no see, Governor Florus." Sitting in the first seat, Tony looked down at Florus who was kneeling in front of him and chuckled.

"Your Highness..." Florus lowered his head, sweating profusely.

He knew that Tony definitely did not come to him to praise him this time. After all, His Majesty had ordered to deprive him of the post of Governor of the Jewish province, but with the manipulation of the Senate, this order became a not-too-light fine. It can be said that the Senate slapped His Majesty in the face, and His Majesty would definitely seek revenge.

And the most crucial thing is that a considerable number of people in Jerusalem knew about His Majesty's order at that time. What Florus did in the Jewish province had already aroused public indignation. If the Senate had not made trouble at that time, the Jews might not have betrayed the empire.
