Chapter 218: Roman Superiority
The march from our starting point lasted for a few days, the men were in high spirits and we managed to march a considerable amount of distance each day, the slaves and Spartans meanwhile had quite a tougher time.
It wasn’t until a week later that we caught sight of King Leonidas and his men having finally caught up with us.
But when they arrived we’d already built up another fortification, the slaves who were just as able as the spartans arrived late as well, but were pleased to see that their masters had built accomodations for them as well.
"Huff what’s the hurry? You guys have been here for days already i presume?" <King Leonidas>
Being questioned by the king pretty much the minute he walked into the command tent.
"Well our scouts spotted the Argosian army so we’ve been preparing for them. and well we had some time waiting for them to arrive." <Julius>
letting slip the paralell rip towards his own ally, Julius lauded his own men’s efforts.
The army had been marching at a fast pace having eventually split into two forces the primary bulk of the two legions marched with Julius while a rearguard force was marching to the limits of the slaves and spartans.
Using their limited horses as runners to keep in constant communication between the two.
