Athletics? Offer samurai, multiple samurai, individually and collectively, and then compete with samurai from Rome in a life-and-death contest to win or lose to get the supplies you want?

Donde's eyes were full of mockery when he looked at a few Romans at that moment.

In fact, very few people on the Empire know that there is a country in the world called Rome, and that Rome is a great power located in the far west of Europa.

Tang De didn't know which onion Rome was, or whether Rome was strong or weak, he knew one thing, that is, they were treated as servants, and they turned cold for a while, and they did not shy away from staring at Kiruslivi, who seemed to be the leader of the Romans, with a murderous gaze. Luce. Scipio. Calfuss.

"It's a great honor for a warrior to compete with a warrior on a fair occasion with each other." Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. Calvers was not intimidated by Donde's murderous gaze. He smiled and nodded: "The world should be dominated by the strong, we have black hair and black eyes that dominate the world together, even if we haven't been competed, just seeing that you have the same black hair and black eyes, I immediately know that the rumors about your strength will not be false." ”

It's a shame that Don De can understand Greek, and he still looks at Kirusliwei with a cold face. Luce. Scipio. Calvers, but his murderous gaze turned into an inexplicable, inexplicable look.

Parthians or Bactrians, such as Miratus and Apollodas, had slightly ugly faces.

With black hair and black eyes, you should become a powerhouse who dominates the world, where did this come from?

The Parthians had a strange expression when they heard this, because the Persians were actually black hair and black eyes a long time ago, and Persia at that time was the well-deserved overlord of Central Asia.

Of course, many of the current Persians still have black hair, but there are some changes in the pupils, because there are too many mixed races, and the new generation of Persians have begun to turn to various colors of pupils.

The people of Bactria, they listened to Kirsrivi. Luce. Scipio. Calvers's words are two-faced. People on one side think that it seems to make sense, after all, there are really too many hegemonic countries in the black hair and black eyes race, such as the distant Persian Darius dynasty? On the other hand, Alexander the Great, with his golden hair and blue eyes, didn't he also build a great empire...... Hey? Something seems to be wrong?

Alexander the Great, with his blond hair and blue eyes, was not wrong to build a great empire, but ...... But it seems to only last for a very short time? On the contrary, if you look at the Persian Darius Dynasty, which has lived for at least a few hundred years, and the rising Roman Republic is also a country that has been strong for hundreds of years, and then look at the empire in the far east, it seems that the dynasty in that place has always been the overlord group in the East?

Tang De was also a little stunned, he felt that if he would be the best of the day. Luce. Scipio. Calvers's words can be understood word by word, but why do you feel that they are a little incomprehensible when combined?

The Roman Republic was not yet pathologically fond of building the Colosseum, nor was it a time for people to fight wild beasts, or men to man, and so on for bloody entertainment. However, they really agree that the warrior-to-warrior fight will be full of violent beauty, which will make people feel intoxicated to watch.

"Don't you agree with me?" Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. Calvers frowned and said, "I thought we would be the same race, at least ideologically, but I didn't expect ......," he said, making a look of disappointment.

Tang De asked Milat in Imperial Chinese: "Who is this guy, and why does he seem to be so sick?" ”

Mirats thought that he had not been introduced properly, and reintroduced Don to Ki Rusliwei. Luce. Scipio. Culvers' identity. This time he introduced it in great detail and used more words.

Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. Calpheus knew Greek, but could not understand the Imperial dialect. He carefully observed the expressions on the faces of the two people who spoke, and saw a look of absurdity and contempt on the face of the knight of the Eastern Han Empire.

"I don't know if it's a very rude act to talk in a language that the master doesn't understand when the master is present, and not to translate the weapon?" Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. Calvers was laughing, and deliberately flirtatious, and said to Donde, "If you are afraid, then I can understand it." For the sake of the same black hair and black eyes, I will still provide you with the supplies you want. ”

Once again, the Parthians and Bactrians present had strange expressions.

The strength of the empire has been proven on the battlefield more than once, and no country that has witnessed the rise of the empire would think that the empire would be a weak and incompetent country.

On the contrary, Parthia and Bactria knew more that if anyone offended the Empire, the Empire would inevitably respond. This has been confirmed again and again in the land of the East, and more and more imperials have recently appeared in Central Asia, and they have shown this point with repeated actions.

But! The Parthians and Bactrians would not tell the Romans, and they were even happy to see the Romans clash with the Han Empire.

"It may be rude, but allow me to be honest." Don De stared at Kiruslivi. Luce. Scipio. Calvers, word for word, said: "I don't care what kind of country Rome is, I don't care what your values are, it's a matter of utter absurdity for me to spend my companion's life doing meaningless things." ”

Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. The corners of Calvers' mouth hooked, and his demeanor looked less respectful than he had at the beginning, probably a state of mind that the higher the hope, the greater the disappointment, and then turned to contempt.

“…… The warrior's martial arts are not the acting of the warriors, and the warriors' martial arts cannot be used as bargaining chips to trade. Don De stared deeply at Kiruslivi. Luce. Scipio. Calvers: "The dignity of the Imperial Samurai cannot be provoked, and I see that your expression is unusually unhappy, so what we are going to do with you is not a competition, but a fight." ”

Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. Kalvers understood, and he clapped his hands: "Very good speech, I hope you still show such sharpness in force." ”

The group of people didn't need to make an appointment at all, and after all of them left the building, they came to a paddock that looked like a racetrack.

The Roman side included Chi Tsrivi. Luce. Scipio. Hundreds of people, including Calvers, had already put on their armor and their weapons had been prepared.

After Tang De and the other mercenaries entered the city, they looked fully armed, but the necessary preparations still had to be made. Such as replenishing water and replacing war horses with poor foot strength.

"I don't know where the guys appeared, they talked a lot about what black hair and black eyes, a whole bunch of inexplicable language." With an obvious annoyance on his face, Tang De said to his companion: "Originally, there was no need for us to fight for will, but a martial artist should have the blood nature that belongs to a martial artist, especially when encountering the contempt of a foreign race, he should give blood in return!" ”

There was no shouting, no cheering, the imperial army inherited the "character" of the Qin army, never shouting or cheering loudly, and thought that it was a rabble that needed to act self-emboldening.

The two sides have agreed that they will send fifty men each to fight a prepared and seemingly fair fight. Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. Calvers originally asked that he could surrender in the fight, thinking that he was about to lose, but apparently Don did not agree.

The armor of the Romans was a type of armor, which was infinitely identical in appearance to the Greek style of armor. Also, if you look closely, the Roman cavalry didn't have stirrups at all, but the armor of the infantry looked much thicker.

Tang De is not a fool, nor is he determined that surrender is not allowed in the fight purely for the sake of pretending to be B. To put it bluntly, they have served in the Imperial Army, but now they are mercenaries, and the Imperial Army needs a sense of honor, and it is a very stupid behavior for mercenaries to talk about honor, so it is not a sense of honor that is at work, he is determined to be able to "eat death" the new alien race.

Why? Although it is said that it is the Qin feudal state, there is actually no difference between the regular troops of the empire in terms of standard equipment, they use new plate armor that has been tested repeatedly, and as mercenaries, they will also wear the necessary chain mail inside, which is exaggerated to describe it, it can be said that it protects the eggs under the crotch.

The Romans sent out fifty men with only ten cavalry, and the rest were infantry. The cavalry only had a straight sword and a round shield, and it seemed that there were no long-range weapons. The infantry are all heavy infantry, in addition to the heavy armor of the whole body, they also have a tarot shield that looks quite heavy, and the weapon is a strange-looking gun, except for the kind of short spear in the hand that looks more like a gun than a gun, and there are also a few inserted in their backs and on the ground of the array line, depending on how the position is easy to insert, purely for the convenience of easy to take.

The fifty people dispatched by Tang De's side were all cavalry, he really wanted to bully people, before the battle, he put on horse armor for the war horse with enough foot strength, and the cavalry who went out to fight also put on the full equipment of the imperial commando cavalry, waiting for the queue to be lined up, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a wall composed of men and horses and steel.

Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. Calvers was already a little out of order, and he kept asking Mirat and Apollodas next to him, asking about the cavalry equipment of the Han Empire.

The stirrup has only been in contact with this kind of thing for a long time, not from the nomads, but from the imperial army in the Western Regions to discover the secret of the stirrup. They didn't show much ecstasy when they discovered the secret of the stirrup, and in fact not so many people started using it.

Weird? No! It should be said that it is a kind of inertial thinking that stubbornly drives the Central Asians. There is no shortage of horses in Central Asia, and it can even be said that the world's horse breeds are in Central Asia, so in addition to the habit of settling in Central Asia, there will be no shortage of people who should have been exposed to horse riding since childhood.

Parthia and Bactria initially thought that the existing cavalry could firmly exert their combat effectiveness on horseback, and the stirrup was a bit redundant, and subconsciously forgot that the Xiongnu and other nomads were actually using it, thinking that only people like the Han Empire in the East who rarely came into contact with horses since childhood needed stirrups.

It was a fact that made the Parthians and Bactrians change their stubborn thinking and fight against one cavalry armed with stirrups against another cavalry without stirrups, most of which were ordinary cavalry armies from regular origins, and those who were not equipped with stirrups were elite. The result of the battle was that the ordinary cavalry equipped with stirrups had a huge advantage and defeated the elite cavalry unit.

The Romans didn't know what stirrups were, and they didn't even know what kind of saddle would make cavalry more effective.

Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. Kalvers attaches great importance to the armor on the body of Donde and others, which is a kind of armor that is completely different from Central Asia, Europa, and Africa, not only in the style, but also in the concept of design. He was wondering in his heart at the moment: "The Eastern Han Empire has already used iron products to this extent?" ”

Maybe it's a little ridiculous, but the armor on the Roman side is actually mostly leather armor, which is a kind of specially made hard leather armor, which is not bad in terms of protection, that is...... It's a little heavier than metal armor.

"As a ...... for this competition Witness to the fight! Mirats almost said the wrong thing, he paused, and looked at Kiruslivi. Luce. Scipio. Calvers and Donde, waiting for the two to nod their heads, then he continued: "This is a noble contest that has nothing to do with hatred, has nothing to do with interests, and is only for the pursuit of honor and the pursuit of warrior Shang Yong." ”

Lo and behold, the Greeks, who knew about the power of speech more than 3,000 years ago, began to fall in love with the fun activity of speaking.

Don knew more or less about the special hobbies of the Greeks, but it was the first time he had seen it with his own eyes, and he heard Milates speaking in a strange tone, and with the ups and downs and the change of mood, the guy seemed to enjoy it?

Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. Kalvers, however, was well acquainted with the Greek oratorical culture, and he raised his head slightly, accepting Miratus's praise for Rome's consistent achievements in his speech, and silently listening to some of the battles of the Han Empire in the East, which are considered classics by the world.

"How do I think that the Greeks are so fond of twittering?"

"Look at the Romans, who seem to share a common culture with Greece?"

"Hurry up and finish talking nonsense, and then let's put an end to this pointless slaughter."

"Huh."

Donde didn't stop the whispered conversation of his companions, he was staring at the Roman hoplites, especially the strange-looking spears. (To be continued.) )
