About this listen

With their position growing worse by the day, Afranius and Petreius decide to make a run for it and attempt to march to Celtiberia where they expect to find support. For Julius Caesar, everything depends on stopping them from reaching a set of mountains/hills at which point they will be out of his reach and the war will become protracted. And so the race begins, with both armies rushing to reach the mountain pass first. Along the way, Caesar's soldiers become fed up with his famous clemency and aren't shy in letting him know.
