The system has to be used even if it is pulled

After this battle, the entire Gauls were terrified and they completely gave up on Atenum. Zhao Yuanlang officially became the nightmare of the Gauls.

Under the bloody setting sun, Zhao Yuanlang stood at the gate of Atenum riding on Nemian. The Roman soldiers were still busy cleaning the battlefield. Many soldiers leaned over to express their lofty respect to Zhao Yuanlang when passing by him.

Zhao Yuanlang didn't pay attention to these, but kept calculating how many heads he had obtained in this battle. When Zhao Yuanlang finally figured it out, he found that he had let the Gaul leader escape, and he only obtained 21 centurion heads. What a big loss!

......

With the demise of the Gauls, the end of the Samnites finally came. They were surrounded by mountains on both sides and blocked from front and back. As autumn was coming to an end, the grain outside the city could not be harvested because it was all taken away by the Romans.

This year's winter is unbearable. The whole of Boyano is really surrounded by enemies.

Decius' body was anointed with oil and then escorted back to Rome by his personal guards. Although the Senate was angry with Decimus, it could not deny that he was a hero.

Immediately afterwards, because of Zhao Yuanlang's invincible performance, the entire Roman legion showed great awe for Zhao Yuanlang. Hercules, the junior behemoth conqueror, and Rome's first warrior, at the suggestion of many soldiers, the Senate had to grant Zhao Yuanlang the position of consul, and even gave Zhao Yuanlang the command of Fabius and his army.

......

The Samnites were having a hard time. Winter had come. Due to the continuous failure of the war and the siege of the Roman army, the whole city had fallen into famine. The Samnites' consul had to reduce supplies to the army, but as for the people, who would care about their lives?

As many people launched riots, the bloody suppression had no effect and riots still occurred every day. After a group of soldiers escaped from the city and surrendered to the Romans, more soldiers began to follow suit.

The Samnite consul was furious and sent out a supervision team to personally execute a group of soldiers who tried to surrender to the Romans.

But this had no effect. Every day, a large number of people and soldiers fled the city. The entire city of Boyano fell into chaos. Rape, robbery, and murder were happening every day.

......

It was snowing. Zhao Yuanlang was watching the snowflakes falling from the sky in the siege camp of Boyano. It was time to attack.

As the army assembly trumpets sounded one after another, all the Roman soldiers assembled.

Zhao Yuanlang stood on the high platform and looked at the Roman soldiers below: "Soldiers! Get ready to face the enemy for the last time! It's time to wash away our shame! The Samnites will become history! The first person to enter the city gate will stand at the forefront of the triumphal procession! I swear, I will make sure you return home before the New Year!"

Zhao Yuanlang looked at the excited soldiers below the stage and quickly activated the mid-level morale, shouting at them: "Fabius, lead the troops to attack from the left wing! Silanus, lead the troops to attack from the right wing! Rome will win! Romans! Attack!"

"Hail! Hail! To the Romans! Romans! Attack!"

Good news, Zhao Yuanlang’s intermediate morale was finally upgraded, and he also gained 607 faith points.

Advanced Morale: The great atmosphere improves the morale of the troops, and you gain the great leader buff. The whole army is given fanaticism, fearless warrior, and fight to the death states, which greatly improves faith and attack. The effect lasts for forty-five minutes, with an interval of two hours.

What is a great leader? I can understand fighting to the death. Forget it, I won't study it anymore. Let's prepare for the battle first. I just don't know what the upgraded battle cry will become in the future.

The war began! The Romans began to attack. The Samnites looked quite weak due to lack of food and clothing, and the soldiers on their walls were sparse and could not fully protect the entire Boyano.

Perhaps Boyano, as the capital of the Samnites, had high walls and was full of fortifications, but at this moment it was of no use at all.

With the Roman catapults smashing wildly and countless arrows falling, it was only a matter of time before the city was captured.

Finally, the Romans climbed up the city wall without much effort, and many Samnites were killed and defeated by Roman soldiers.

Finally, one unit surrendered first, dropped its weapons, and knelt on the ground. As one unit after another surrendered, the morale of the Samnites was completely crushed.

The Samnites on the city wall dropped their weapons, knelt on the ground and became prisoners of the Romans.

As the army entered the city, Zhao Yuanlang heard that the Samnites' archon had already fled into the inner city. He looked at the soldiers who were full of morale and shouted loudly: "My compatriots! Break through the inner city! Find their archon at all costs! No matter if he lives or dies!"

The army immediately began to move and advanced towards the inner city!

The army quickly broke through the inner city. The Samnite consul hid in the consul's hall, but was surrounded by Roman soldiers.

Zhao Yuanlang got down from the lion Nemian, holding the mace in his hand, and walked slowly along the steps towards the door of the ruling hall.

The Samnite guards guarding the entrance of the hall rushed towards Zhao Yuanlang waving their weapons. Zhao Yuanlang waved his hand to stop the Roman soldiers who wanted to charge.

Waving their maces, one, two, three... until the last one, the entire Samnite Archon's Guard fell to the ground, and the blood slowly flowed down the steps.

Zhao Yuanlang kicked the door open and looked at the Samnite archon sitting in the main seat of the hall: "You lose. There will be no more Samnites in the future! Rome will prosper forever!"

Zhao Yuanlang ran quickly, and before the Samnite Archon could say anything, he kicked him off the main seat, and then broke all of his limbs with a few kicks, and then dragged him out of the executive hall like a dead dog.

The Roman soldiers around the Executive Hall watched Zhao Yuanlang drag out the enemy leader and cheered loudly.

"Roman soldiers, we have come so far together, so don't let you fall on this road! Human nature and honor force us to take up arms. We rely on each other, for our land, for our beliefs, we have fought a desperate battle with the enemy. We did not expect war! But our homes were burned, our friends were slaughtered, our leaders were insulted, and now everything has disappeared with the defeat of the Samnites. Rome is victorious!"

All the Roman soldiers were cheering and shouting.

However, Zhao Yuanlang waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, then straightened his helmet and shouted loudly: "War will break out again. If these evil deeds of mankind are not stopped, they will one day fall on Rome. New threats have emerged. The Greeks are ready to take our lives and land for themselves. While we are fighting with our neighbors, the Orientals on the other side of the ocean have established a great empire. The barbarians are sharpening their knives and preparing to plunder our towns and villages. We will fight for survival, and this is just the beginning! Under the guidance of the gods, we will unite as one and fulfill our destiny together! Long live Rome!"

Zhao Yuanlang swung the mace in his hand and smashed the head of the Samnite archon on the ground to pieces.

"Long live Rome!"
