lf all goes well, my estimate is
we can load 150 ships a day.
2:05:26
That's your job, Dionysius.
Work with the Cilician pirates.
2:05:29
- That oughta keep him busy.
- Saves me fiýnding someplace to sleep.
2:05:32
Crixus, keep giving me reports
on Pompey.
2:05:35
There won't be any surprises.
2:05:37
l still want patrols of
the back country until we board ship.
2:05:40
l'll get them together now.
2:05:41
Spartacus, the harbour district
in Brundusium has food warehouses...
2:05:45
but not enough to provide
for the whole fleet.
2:05:47
The countryside's fiýlled with cattle.
2:05:49
And we've more than enough salt
to preserve them.
2:05:51
l'll handle it.
2:05:53
Find out how many men we have in camp
who were galley slaves or sailors.
2:05:56
Tigranes Levantus.
2:06:01
- My dear general.
- Welcome, Tigranes!
2:06:03
No, no. You needn't look
for litter bearers to emancipate.
2:06:07
l rode a horse.
2:06:08
Your gods lsis and Serapis
must've been good to us.
2:06:12
The balance of the 50 million sesterces
we owe you.
2:06:17
General...
2:06:19
l bear a heavy burden
of evil tidings.
2:06:24
What is it?
2:06:28
Pompey and his army
has landed in ltaly.
2:06:31
At the border of Rhegium
three days ago.
2:06:34
We get complete reports
on their movements.
2:06:36
But do you also know...
2:06:38
that a Roman fleet carrying
Lucullus and his army...
2:06:41
arrives tomorrow at Brundusium?
2:06:45
- Lucullus here?
- You have no ships.
2:06:52
l saw them in the harbour.
2:06:55
The Cilician fleet,
out of strategic necessity...
2:06:59
has been obliged to withdraw.
