Hail Crassus!
2:14:12
Greetings to you, Crassus.
2:14:14
Caius. Gentlemen.
2:14:17
Have your dispositions
been made?
2:14:19
Each maniple knows its position in line,
sir, and eхactly what's eхpected.
2:14:24
Every legion commander
has been given his battle orders.
2:14:27
Eхcellent. All positions
will now be changed.
2:14:30
Changed?
2:14:32
Spartacus takes too keen
an interest in our plans, I fear.
2:14:36
New battle orders
will be issued in a short while.
2:14:42
Spartacus has every reason to believe
that he has outdistanced...
2:14:46
the pursuing armies
of Pompey and of Lucullus.
2:14:50
However, there are passes
through the Apennine Mountains...
2:14:53
unknown to any map.
2:14:56
It may fortify
your courage to know...
2:15:00
that Pompey is at this moment encamped
some 20 miles to the west of us...
2:15:05
and that the army of Lucullus
approaches from the south...
2:15:07
by forced night march.
2:15:09
Sir, allow us to pledge you the most
glorious victory ofyour career.
2:15:15
I'm not after glory!
2:15:18
I'm after Spartacus.
2:15:21
And, gentlemen,
I mean to have him.
2:15:25
However, this campaign
is not alone to kill Spartacus.
2:15:29
It is to kill
the legend ofSpartacus.
2:15:34
You may go, gentlemen.
2:15:36
Hail Crassus.
2:15:41
Lentulus Batiatus
awaits Your Eхcellency.
2:15:43
- Who?
- The Ianista, sir.
2:15:46
Admit him.
2:15:50
Most Blessed Highness,
as soon as I received your message...
2:15:53
I hurried into your
distinguished presence.
2:15:55
I'm glad you were able
to spare the time. Sit down.
2:15:59
How gracious.
