72. The Killing Zone
Julius Caesar arrives in Spain, the picture of confidence. Even having to borrow money from his officers to pay his soldiers doesn't seem to dampen his self-belief, or the belief of his followers. Taking command of the Spanish campaign, he quickly begins trying to outmaneuver Afranius and Petreius. Caesar's luck abandons him though, when his veteran army panics and the Ninth Legion finds itself trapped in what amounts to a killing zone.
Correction: Cicero marvels at the lies a man goes about telling on behalf of Pompey. I said this man was a follower of Pompey. He was, in fact, a freedman of Cicero's wife named, Philotimus.
