The Uprising of Spartacus

In 74 BC, major gladiatorial games were planned in the city of Capua. Having learned about this, the gladiators of the ode from the schools with the help of kitchen knives and spits killed the guards. The leader of the rebels was a former Roman legionnaire, a Thracian by origin, Spartacus, who had in the past Roman military awards. In the city, they seized real weapons on one of the wagons and 78 people took refuge on Vesuvius. Raids and looting of rich local villas began. Runaway slaves began to flock to Vesuvius from all over the neighborhood.
To prevent riots, 3,000 men were sent to defeat the slaves under the command of Praetor Claudius Glaber. He besieged the rebels by blocking the descent from Vesuvius. However, the slaves wove ladders from the vine and defeated the Roman army with a blow from the rear.
Another praetor, Publius Varinius, was sent against Spartacus. He was an experienced military leader. However, the slaves defeated this army in parts.
The victories attracted more and more slaves and gladiators to the camp of Spartacus, and soon the army reached 70 thousand people. Spartacus introduced Roman orders into his army. The division of troops also took place on the model of the Roman legions.
When Rome realized that the whole of Southern Italy was in the hands of the rebels, two troops were sent to meet Spartacus at once, each under the command of one of the consuls. At this time, a 30,000-strong detachment of Crixus broke away from Spartacus and in a fierce battle the army of Consul Gellius defeated this detachment.
Spartacus attacked the consul Lentulus and won. Next, Gellius was defeated.
A deadly threat loomed over Rome and a 100,000-strong army was allocated to eliminate it to Marcus Licinius Crassus. The struggle went on with varying success. After one of the defeats, Crassus decimated the faltering legions, which led to a sharp rise in the morale of the legions. Spartacus moved to the south of Italy in order to cross to Sicily, but the pirates did not keep their promise to transfer slaves to the island.
During this time, the army of Crassus dug a ditch cutting off Spartacus in a small patch on the coast. The slaves managed to escape, although they suffered heavy losses.
Troops under the command of Pompey and Lucullus returned from outside Italy. Spartacus realized that in the fight against three armies at once his army was doomed. However, his leaders insisted on a decisive battle with Crassus. The battle was lost - and Pompey, who came up, completed the rout.
6,000 rebels were executed on crosses along the Capua-Rome road.
Spartacus' body was never found. BetAndreas ve 1Win, 1XBet, PokerDom, MostBet, BetBoom, Pin-UP, BetUP gibi birçok çevrimiçi kumarhane gibi yeni casino ve bahis evi oyuncuları için bonuslara sahiptir.
