Roman Slave Owner

Three hundred and sixtieth chapters Gaul came to envoy

"Of course there is no problem, Aetius, I have to leave beforehand."

Caesar said, and got into Sevilla's carriage after speaking.

Aetius shook his head, of course he knew what Caesar had something to talk about, he couldn't envy some things, he was just not worth it for Cornelia.

In a secret residence, after an hour of indescribable movements, Caesar touched Sevilla's smooth pink back.

Sevilla is a married woman, and her husband is the future consul Silanus.

"Sevilla, you are so charming."

Caesar said that after a while of exercise, the unhappiness with Crassus just now was swept away.

"You men can't believe a word."

Sevilla said with a coquettish smile.

Of course, Caesar would not admit it. The two sides were talking affectionately, and Caesar made Sevilla giggle.

"By the way, I just saw you chatting with Crassus, what are you talking about?"

"It's nothing, he wants to win me over and let me leave Li Wei."

Caesar said.

"Then you agreed?"

"Of course I didn't agree."

"Why not agree, Li Wei killed Brutus' father."

Seville said dissatisfied.

In the battle between Capua Capo and Sura, Li Wei's men turned against him and killed Brutus, which made Sevilla always grudge, because it made the child in her arms lose his father .

In addition, little Cato doesn't like Li Wei, and their family is all hardcore opponents of Li Wei.

(She also has a sister who married Lucullus, who also divorced because of her cheating.)

"This...is very complicated. I owe Levi a lot of money, and I have to do things for him."

Caesar thought for a while and said.

"You're lying, I don't believe that Crassus and the others won't guarantee this money for you. You really want to borrow, and some people will lend you money."

Seville said.

Caesar stood up a little annoyed, why are women always dictating areas they are not good at?

The reason for this is very complicated. Can Sevilla understand what he said? It wasn't a big fight in the end.

"Did you know? When the news of Brutus' death came back, I was pregnant. I thought I would have a happy family, but Levi ruined it all. At that time, I was in so much pain that even little Brutus Tudu almost had a miscarriage."

Sevilla said in pain, tears could not stop streaming from her eyes.

Caesar looked at her quietly, and finally hugged her gently, stroking her curly long hair, and comforted: "Don't talk about that, it's all over."

"No, there is no past. You didn't say you liked me, and I don't ask you to do anything for me, as long as you leave Li Wei."

Seville raised her head and said.

Caesar heaved a long sigh, poured himself a glass of whiskey, and drank it down.

"Come and drink with me."

Caesar said.

Sevilla stared at him with red eyes, this guy was lying to her, he didn't care about her at all.

He just wanted to play with her!

Caesar drank whiskey glass after glass, drinking the entire bottle in no time, and became very drunk.

If it was normal, Sevilla would definitely take care of him, but today she didn't want to do anything.

She put on her own clothes and was about to leave when she heard Caesar talking drunk.

"……will die."

Seville was startled, what would die.

"What did you say?"

She walked up to Caesar and asked.

"Catiline . . . will . . . die."

Caesar said vaguely.

Sevilla was taken aback, of course she knew who Catiline was.

The former justice, Governor of Africa, is also well-known in the Senate.

Later, he was expelled from the Senate by Li Wei, but how could he die?

"Tell me why Catiline died."

Sevilla asked.

But Caesar seemed drunk,

Just saying the same thing over and over again.

Seeing that Caesar could not be woken up, Sevilla felt that this matter was very important, and maybe she should discuss it with her brother.

Thinking of this, she hugged Caesar to the bed with difficulty, and then left here alone.

Gaul, as the Romans called it, covered a vast area, mainly west of the Rhine.

From today’s point of view, including the whole of France except Shannan Gaul, Belgium, Luxembourg, the southern part of the Netherlands, the western part of Germany and Switzerland, it is basically what people call Western Europe.

One of Li Wei's three major provinces is Shannan Gaul, also known as the Northern Italy Province, located in the south of the Alps, where a large number of Romanized Gauls live.

The other is the Northern Gaul, also known as Narpan Gaul. Located north of the Alps, it was established in 121 BC, but Northern Gaul was only a small part of the Gaul region.

Gaul still has a large number of areas inhabited by Gauls who are dissatisfied with Rome. It was not until Caesar became the governor of the three provinces that Rome truly unified the entire territory of Gaul.

The last Illyria is located south of the Danube, in what is now the Balkans, not the so-called Iberian Peninsula.

After receiving 10 legions, Li Wei came to Ravenna, the capital of Shannan Gaul, which is not far from the sea and is considered a port city, only 35 kilometers north of the Rucombe River.

Li Wei knew that Gaul was in chaos now, but he still didn't want to go to Gaul in the north of the mountain.

Because he knew that even if the Gaul rebellion was quelled, those Gauls would still rebel, so he didn't mind at all that the Germans taught them a lesson and made them suffer a little more.

The auxiliary troops Li Wei wanted also arrived one after another, including 10,000 Galacian cavalry and more than 12,000 Armenian cavalry, in addition to some Cretan archers and Marorca Islands slingers.

Although the Numidian cavalry were also good, Li Wei worried that they could not stand the cold climate in Germany, so he did not let them come.

In a barracks in Ravenna, a large number of Roman troops are training.

The Roman army was not a professional army, so systematic training after enlistment was a must.

"I failed to assassinate Catiline, but was caught by the enemy with a sore foot. What's going on?"

After receiving the news from Rome, Li Wei said with some doubts.

In order not to attract attention, Li Wei specially ordered people to wait for Catiline to be kicked out of the Senate for a few months before doing anything, but unexpectedly something happened.

"We followed your instructions and wanted to turn this into an accident. So we kidnapped him while he was drinking, but a lot of people rushed out from somewhere. They not only rescued Catiline, but also arrested him. Killed several of us."

A young man with a very ordinary appearance said.

"Are those people doing anything now?"

Levi asked.

"No, we don't even know who caught them, and Catiline has never shown up. Marcian estimates that they have already left Rome."

said the young man.

"How do you do things? Why can't you even do such a little thing well."

Li Wei said dissatisfied.

The young man lowered his head in shame, not daring to say anything.

"The only ones who can do this are the great nobles and knights who have deep-rooted influence in Rome. It seems that I left Rome, and their courage has returned."

Li Wei said with a sneer.

"Then what should we do?"

asked the young man.

"They will never let this good card go unused, it's just that the timing is not right. Most of them will make a move during the change of term. At that time, not only can they hit us hard, but they can also obtain the maximum benefit."

Levi said.

Li Wei feels that this year will not be peaceful, especially when the supervisor is running for office, which is the highlight of this year.

However, the Ombudsman is decided by the Centuries Conference, and the Centuries Conference has always been Li Wei's weakest point, because there are too few rich people under him, so his influence on the Centuries Conference has always been limited.

He can guarantee that once Crassus is allowed to master the two inspectors, he will definitely make a lightning move to cleanse the veteran's Li Wei faction before Emilia and Cicero react.

After telling the young man his guess, he said: "Let Emilia and Cicero figure it out, it's best to be able to grasp the quota of one inspector. As long as you have the quota for one inspector, the other The inspectors will be abolished, and Pompey must not be given the opportunity to control more legions."

"I see."

"And tell them that this matter may have been leaked in advance, and let them find out who leaked it."

Levi said.

"As ordered."

After he left, Li Wei felt a huge headache. He didn't expect that something happened to him not long after he left Rome. This is true.

Not long after, a guard soldier walked in.

"Report to the governor, several people claim to be the messengers of the Helvetians (also translated as the Helvetians), and they have come to ask for an interview."

Helvetians?

Is this the old ancestor of the Swiss? This appellation has been used ever since and refers to the Swiss.

These Helvetians lived on the east side of Lake Leman, on the east of the broad Rhine, and had always been threatened by the Germans.

But the Helvetians have always been one of the most warlike tribes among the Gauls.

They fought back and forth with the Germans, and they were much stronger than the other Celtics who had been defeated repeatedly.

"Let them in."

Li Wei thought for a while and said.

Not long after, several tall Gauls walked in.

The leader of them had a beard and long red hair, and he was wearing traditional Celtic leather pants.

He saluted Li Wei, and then said: "Dear Governor of Rome, I am Divigo, the envoy sent by the leader of the Helvetians, Orgitorex. Since the Germans are about to march west, we and Laura The Qie, Durinji, and Radobici decided to move westward, hoping to go to the territory of the Santonians through Gaul in the north of the mountains."

"The Germans are about to march west? What's going on?"

Li Wei asked quickly.

"I heard that Wufar, the king of the Germans, has decided to lead an army of 500,000 across the Rhine to conquer us. Just across the vast Rhine, there are scenes of Germans building ships everywhere. Although we Helvetians They are very good at fighting, but the population of our whole clan is not as many as their fighters, so how can we be their opponents."

"That's why we hope to move our family to the west, and I implore you to allow us to pass through the northern Gaul under your rule."

Divigo said.

Li Wei's complexion changed, half a million German troops!

You are not kidding.

During the Roman Empire, although the Romans conquered some Germanic people, it was because they fought on their own.

Once they were united, it was very difficult for the Roman Empire to conquer them.

"Are you sure it's an army of 500,000 troops?"

Li Wei said with a serious face.

"There will be no mistake. The Speybi alone can mobilize an army of 200,000, and the Ubbi have a larger population than the Speypi. These two tribes can mobilize more than 400,000 Germanic people, not to mention the Wufar There are many other tribes under his rule. Mobilizing an army of half a million is definitely a very simple matter."

Divigo said.

Li Wei knew that the matter was serious, and it seemed that he had underestimated Wufa's strength.

It has to be said that the mobilization ability of primitive society is strong, as long as it is an adult man, it can be used as a soldier.

Just like the Huns, there are hundreds of thousands of people who control strings at every turn.

Only more Germanic, and just as barbaric.

I have let out my big words, how will I face this half a million German army in the future?

Do you want to force yourself to use a trick?

Li Wei quickly thought of several secret weapons he had prepared.

"Your Excellency...Your Excellency."

Seeing that Li Wei was in deep thought, Di Weiguo said quickly.

Only then did Li Wei come to his senses. He thought for a while and said, "As far as I know, this is not the only way for you to leave for the territory of Sanctor, right? Why do you want to pass through our northern Gaul?"

"Because it is closer to go to the north of Gaul, I hope the governor will be lenient. As long as the governor can agree to this matter, we will be rewarded generously."

Divigo said.

Li Wei shook his head, "I'm sorry, I can't promise you."

"Why?"

Divigo's face immediately changed.

"As far as I know, you Helvetians killed our Roman consul Lucius Cassius, and forced our Roman soldiers to go through the yoke gate. You know that's a bad idea for us Romans. It is a great shame, and if I consent, I am afraid I will be condemned by the people of Rome and the Senate."

Levi said.

He was talking about 107 B.C., when the Helvetians marched south in an attempt to enter the Roman province.

Cassius led his army northward to intercept, but died in ambush.

As for the drill yoke gate, it is an Italian custom. It consists of two spears inserted into the ground separately, and another one is tied on top, just like a football gate.

After the victory of the Italian army, they often forced the defeated to pass through the yoke gate, which was always regarded as a great shame by the Romans.

"I believe it hasn't been long since you received the news. How much food have you prepared? Can you guarantee that there will be no crime in the autumn of the northern Gaul? As the governor of the northern Gaul, I have the obligation to protect the safety of the people under my rule. "

"Besides, there are Pictonians and Santoni people living in the place you are going to. I am afraid that there will be another battle when you go there. I have never heard that you have been invited by them, so I can only apologize."

Li Wei continued.

"Is it really not negotiable?"

Divigo pleaded.
