Maximus said seriously, "It's always good to be more prepared, to minimize the casualties of our brothers."
"Maximus, you're right. We aren't short on time; waiting a bit longer is completely fine," Attutmus quickly interjected.
Maximus looked at him and then at his several subordinates, his expression becoming solemn. "Leader Attutmus, I hope that after we capture Canosa, you will keep your promise and restrain your men from harassing and looting the city's residents."
As soon as these words were spoken, Attutmus knew things could get bad. Sure enough, before he could respond, several of his subordinates started shouting, "Leader Maximus, your request is too much! Ever since we entered the Samnium Mountain Area, you've been repeatedly asking us what not to do, we've complied with each request, but our brothers' patience is limited. After breaking through the city, we can't make them do nothing, and we can't restrain them!"
