"Onward! Don't stop, keep going! ”

"Rush, !!"

I led my hundred-man army like a pack of hungry wolves, not caring about the stones under my feet and the pain in my face, or whether it would damage the reputation of the Roman legions. I took the lead, Andrew followed, we waved shields and a small cloth flag specially matched for our team of 100 people, quite the momentum of the Japanese devils entering the village after a thousand years, but we came out, there is no doubt that we are the ancestors of the Japanese devils.

It's strange to say that there are not many people in such a large village, and every household has a small vegetable garden, which is actually some cabbage, turnips, lettuce and so on. To the south of the village there was still neat land, where wheat was supposed to be grown, but it had been harvested, so that the seemingly desolate land was covered with straws scattered all over the place, but we didn't come for that.

"Come, come, come! Give it to you, sir, and I'll give me all your leather boots! ”

I carried the rag flags of our hundred-man team and swaggered down the muddy paths in the village. Constantly shouting in Latin to the villages on both sides of the road, only then came out three or two sluggish men, all of them holding knives in their hands, these things are usually used to chop vegetables, but they can hurt or kill people, and this has become the only weapon they can use. These people were barbarians, strictly speaking, barbarians who had been slightly civilized by Rome, wearing shabby and wide shirts with patches on them, and we didn't know that they were so poor that they should have deliberately played a poor card in front of us.

Eyes watched me warily, but they stared at me uncomfortably, and for the sake of precaution, my right hand never left the hilt of the sword pinned to my right for a moment.

"Hey, who's your village chief? Stand out! ”

I shouted at them, but I was surprised that they were now standing still, looking at each other and not moving.

"Damn, you people!" I was about to curse, but when I think about it, it's also close to the Rhine, which is also the border of the empire, and it's normal for people to live here and not understand Latin. Now let's find out how many things there are in this village, and communication is especially important at this point!

"Hey! Andrew! No, Andrew Centurion! "That's when I remembered this Germanic man, who was fluent in Roman Latin, but I don't know how much he knew about his native Semitic language.

"What's wrong? Captain Luga Centurion? ”

Andrew strode over, and before I could speak, he said: "Oh, Centurion Luga, I know you are in trouble, so I have now arranged for my people to block the roads in this village, hmph, Centurion Luga, you can ask boldly, if these hillbillies resist your inquiry, we will not kill people, but we don't say that we will not beat people!" ”

Andrew, this guy impressed me, and he told me not to rob before, no, I haven't spoken yet, he is ready, he is worthy of being a veteran of robbing houses, and today it opened my eyes.

"No, Centurion Andrew." I smiled and explained to him, "I didn't mean that, I just wanted to ask you if you could speak your native dialect, and I found that they didn't seem to understand me." ”

"These mud legs!" Andrew scolded, looked at the group of poor villagers in front of him with his hands on his shoulders, and said to me with a thoughtful face: "Centurion Luga, to tell you the truth, I don't know my hometown dialect anymore, I have lived in the environment of the Romans since I was a child, who can speak this mud-legged language." ”

Well, the different living environments have a very profound impact on people.

"Hey, do you know Semitic?"

I asked the soldier behind me.

The soldiers behind me were talking to each other in private, and they told me that it would only be a little bit, what good could this little bit be, these guys, I shook my head.

"Sir, I'll do a little."

A hand came out in the crowd, and because it was a bit back, I had to stand on tiptoe to look at it, and pointed to the hand and shouted, "Hey, that one who raised his hand, come on!" ”

The soldiers stopped talking to each other, and they spontaneously gave way to either side, and gradually the guy with the raised hand was revealed. I looked at it and said, "Hey, isn't it?" I pointed at the guy and looked at Andrew and said, "Isn't this Fermeo!" ”

"Yes, yes!" Andrew nodded repeatedly, not looking surprised at all.

"No," I pointed to the Fermio, "isn't he in the hundred-man team behind?" ”

"Oh, Centurion Luga, listen to me." Andrew stuck his head over and whispered to me, "Fermio was laughed at in the hundred-man squad because he peed his pants in the last battle, and he was nicknamed "Fermio who peed his pants." ”

Fermio who pees his pants!

I thought about it, and quickly blocked my crotch with my shield, because after a long trek, there was no other clothes to change, and the urine stain had become a portrait and was printed on my crotch. Fortunately, no one seems to have seen it for so many days, otherwise Luga, who peed his pants, would have a much better reputation.

"So, he ran to your phalanx?" I asked.

"yes, that was three days ago." Andrew replied.

"So, the chief centurion Guy, didn't look for him?" I then asked.

"No, maybe he dislikes him just as much as Fermio's team of hundreds." Andrew replied in a whisper.

"Also, this guy is not suitable for war at all." I sighed and said, "Maybe I can become a quartermaster in the future, but the soldiers on the front line are too difficult for him." ”

"Hey, Fermio, come here." I beckoned to him and said to the trumpeter, "You take thirty men to the road outside the village, and you won't let him in even if God comes!" ”

"Yes, sir!"

Bliss nodded yes, turned around and went to the intersection with the horn and the thirty men he had personally ordered.

"Centurion Andrew, you also send your soldiers to help, I don't think thirty people can stop that group of bandits."

"Then I'll go straight to it." Andrew was about to leave and then turned back to me and reminded, "Don't think about yourself then!" I can't afford to lose my number 100! ”

"Oops, got it!"

When Andrew was gone, I looked at Fermio and said, "Come on, it's time for you to play." ”

Fermio nodded, and stepped forward, and I said to him, "Just ask who the village chief is, and let's buy fur boots, two denares, and a pair." So saying, I threw him a silver dinaris and told him to show it to the chief of the village later, and prove it to be true.

Fermio took the silver Dinarius coin, walked up to the knife-wielding villagers, and spoke to them in fluent language, which the villagers could understand because they spoke Semitic. So the process was quick, and each of them said a few words, and Fermio was there to listen patiently.

At this moment, there was a noise outside the village, I looked back, and I saw that the auxiliary legions who had just come wanted to enter the village to plunder, but they were blocked by dozens of soldiers led by Andrew, and they quarreled, and the voice was probably Andrew saying to them that this place was occupied by us, so it was our territory, and they had no right to come in, and those auxiliary legions were relying on the old and selling the old, playing scoundrels.

Seeing that this village is full of our people, not to mention that we are a field legion that is one level higher than their auxiliary legion, and there is Andrew, a guy who doesn't eat hard, to stop us. So they can only stand outside and look inside, wondering what we are doing in this village, neither looting nor killing?

After a long time, Flio seemed to have finished talking to them, and came back to me and reported, "The villagers say they have enough boots. ”

"How many pairs?"

"It can satisfy more than 200 of us."

"That's great," I looked at the sandals under my feet, it was time to pack them up, and thinking about the price, I quickly asked Fermio, "So the price?" ”

"A Dinaris!" Flemio proudly tossed the silver Dinaris in his hand and looked at me.
