SPOILERS 3º
A ver, Crixus de toda la serie ha sido de los personajes que mas energia y más brutalismo aporta a la serie, su duelo de egos con Spartacus ha estado entre lo mejor de toda la serie, sin embargo, como ya venia diciendo hace un par de semanas, en la 2º temp estaba apollardado por Naevia y en la 3º le esta lamiendo el culo y las botas a Spartacus por mantener el grupo, lo cual estaba haciendo esta temporada muy aburrida entre otras cosas.
Por fin, llego el momento de que se viniese arriba y le plantase cara con su caracteristica brutalidad. Y por otro lado es lo que le hacia falta a esta temp, que dejasen esa puta ciudad y que hubiese movimiento.
En cuanto a los que os quejais de que no sigue la línea historica al pie de la letra casi que lo agradezco porque deja pie para innovar y cosas que no sabemos que pasaran.
Spartacus y Crixus se supone que se separan casi despues del volcan de Pompeya vamos...
The two legions were initially successful—defeating a group of 30,000 slaves commanded by Crixus near Mount Garganus[26]—but then were defeated by Spartacus. These defeats are depicted in divergent ways by the two most comprehensive (extant) histories of the war by Appian and Plutarch.[27][28][29][30]
Alarmed by the apparently unstoppable rebellion, the Senate charged Marcus Licinius Crassus, the wealthiest man in Rome and the only volunteer for the position,[citation needed] with ending the rebellion. Crassus was put in charge of eight legions, approximately 40,000–50,000 trained Roman soldiers,[31][32] which he treated with harsh, even brutal, discipline, reviving the punishment of unit decimation.[33] When Spartacus and his followers, who for unclear reasons had retreated to the south of Italy, moved northward again in early 71 BC, Crassus deployed six of his legions on the borders of the region and detached his legate Mummius with two legions to maneuver behind Spartacus. Though ordered not to engage the slaves, Mummius attacked at a seemingly opportune moment but was routed.[34] After this, Crassus' legions were victorious in several engagements, forcing Spartacus farther south through Lucania as Crassus gained the upper hand. By the end of 71 BC, Spartacus was encamped in Rhegium (Reggio Calabria), near the Strait of Messina.
According to Plutarch, Spartacus made a bargain with Cilician pirates to transport him and some 2,000 of his men to Sicily, where he intended to incite a slave revolt and gather reinforcements. However, he was betrayed by the pirates, who took payment and then abandoned the rebel slaves.[34] Minor sources mention that there were some attempts at raft and shipbuilding by the rebels as a means to escape, but that Crassus took unspecified measures to ensure the rebels could not cross to Sicily, and their efforts were abandoned.[35] Spartacus' forces then retreated toward Rhegium. Crassus' legions followed and upon arrival built fortifications across the isthmus at Rhegium, despite harassing raids from the rebel slaves. The rebels were now under siege and cut off from their supplies
