The End of the Third Servile War

My death had ended the slave uprising and the Third Servile War. Crassus wreaked terrible retribution on the slave army ordering that the 6,000 slave captives are crucified along the Appian Way from Brundisium to Rome. Their bodies were left to rot as an example to all slaves and any others who rebel against the authority of Rome. 5,000 of the slave army manage to escape capture and went north. But, they were met by General Pompey as he was returning from Spain, and completely cut to pieces. Crassus had, in reality, brought the War of me to an end, but Pompey took the credit to himself, and wrote to the Senate, saying that Crassus, had most defiantly defeated the enemy, but he had extirpated  them by the roots. Pompey claims credit for ending the slave war and is granted a triumph. Crassus is given just an ovation. The Third Servile War is crushed by the might of the Roman army.
