Fesaros immediately tensed up. Before he could speak, the staff department subordinate Marcus suggested, "Legion Commander, we must launch an attack immediately! Otherwise—"
Fesaros nodded and instructed the messenger, "Go tell Lufus right away—his First Battalion may begin their action!"
Lufus, a Roman veteran from Lukelia, was one of the six battalion captains when Maximus' rebellion army occupied Pompeii. Later, when the legion was established, he did not become Legion Commander due to seniority reasons but has always served as the First Battalion Captain of the First Legion. His battalion was the most formidable in the rebellion army, and now it remains the one with the most veterans within the First Legion.
By withdrawing the First Battalion as reserves, Fesaros hoped they would unleash their greatest power in a counterattack.
After the messenger departed, Fesaros shouted his order loudly, "Sound the attack horn!"
