"But he is your son-in-law, Lord Dictator! All the honors he has received are due to your knowledge. The young man reassured.

"No, Crassus, it is precisely because he is my son-in-law that I cannot perform a triumphal ceremony for him!" Sula shook her head.

"But Lord Dictator, General Pompey also has many supporters in the Senate, and you need these people to support your idea of abolishing the system of cheap rationing." Crassus reminded.

Seeing that Sulla was still a little uncertain, Crassus said again: "Your Excellency the dictator, Pompey is your son-in-law after all, and increasing his prestige will do you more good than harm. What's more, General Pompey defeated the enemy in only 40 days, and his military exploits were worthy of triumph, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a great victory. ”

Sulla pondered for a long time, and finally said, "Well, tomorrow you send someone to tell Pompey that I have agreed to his request, and you will organize the triumphal ceremony." ”

Crassus came out of the mansion, looked at the south and said secretly: "Pompey, I did you a great favor, how can you repay me?" ”

Let's go back to Gaul again.

Armand refused to beg for mercy, which made Ma Su can't help but look up, and after thinking about it, he withdrew his sword, looked at Armand's puzzled eyes and said, "Sit down and talk, I still have some wine and barbecue here." ”

Armand and Carl looked at Masu suspiciously, and then asked, "Why did you let us go?" ”

Ma Su untied the wine bag, took a sip, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Killing you is just two more corpses, and it doesn't mean anything to me." If you're not in a hurry to leave, sit down and have a drink! ”

Massu tossed the bag to Armand, who took a sip and handed it to Carl, who sat down by the campfire.

Armand looked at Ma Su curiously, and then said faintly: "You are very strong!" ”

Ma Su smiled, and then asked, "Who are you, why did you rob my horse?" ”

"Armand has always wanted to have a horse of his own, and who wouldn't?" Carl unceremoniously ate the barbecue.

"We are Trikassi, and the Bilichites have taken over our tribe, and after the defeat, we fled here. We must not be caught by the savage Belichians, or we will be sold as slaves. Armand said.

Ma Su's heart moved, and then asked, "How many of you are there?" ”

"Three hundred, all of them are soldiers who escaped with me!"

"There are a lot of people, what are your plans?" Ma Su Dao.

"At first we robbed the small village of the Mandubiyi, but now that they are on guard, we can't do it." Armand said.

"Why don't you take refuge in me!" Ma Su said suddenly.

"Take refuge in you? Ha ha! Karl laughed.

"Who are you?" Armand didn't laugh and asked suspiciously.

"I am Aronsi, the son of the leader of the tribe of the Oreshi, and I can provide you with food, and I will also give you land and women in the future, how about it?" Ma Su looked at them with burning eyes and said.

Five years have passed since Masu was captured, and the Oresi tribe has changed a lot. The town has doubled, the walls are no longer wooden, and the tall, thick bluestone walls have blocked many enemy attacks. The total population of the tribe has increased by more than 30%, and the number of warriors has reached about 700, everything is so incredible, but it is logical.

The people of the tribe vividly remember that five years earlier, the chief's youngest son, Alongsi, had brought them Aronsi carts and ditches, and later the new Aronsi plow. It's these things that have made a huge difference in their lives. However, Aronsi is missing, otherwise the tribe would have prospered more.

That year, after fending off the attacks of the Barissi, the Auresis had their first bumper year.

It was a real harvest year, and the mountains of grain were piled up so that the people of Ålesi could not believe that it was true. The sacrifices of the tribe and the older generation knelt in front of the grain pile and wept bitterly, and many young people did not understand why. But after hearing the elders' explanations, they understood: the tribe finally has a strong hope!

With the food, the tribe paid off all the debts owed to the allies, and at this moment, it was easier for the Oresian than ever. But they sighed secretly, and Alonsi, the giver of all this, could not see it. The tribe hopes that people will remember this son of God and his great contribution to the tribe, so the day of Alonsi's birthday is designated as the Day of the Son of God.

On the day of the Divine Son's Day, everyone in the tribe must bring out the best food and come to the tribe to pay tribute to the dead Alongsi. Then everyone gathers together and eats all of these things to show that it is food given by the Son of God.

In the following years, the grain was harvested year after year, and there was so much that it was impossible to eat. The tribe also began to absorb other small tribes, and the number of tribe villages increased, and the population increased steadily.

The change in the Auresi, which unnerved the Barissi, knew that the two sides were mortal enemies and that they must be destroyed! So, the Barisians waged two wars in five years, paying a terrible price, but still did not get what they wanted.

Seeing that the mortal enemy was getting stronger and stronger, and the losses on their side were huge, the Barisians could no longer sit still. Aloud sent emissaries to the Ersubis and Sennon, hoping to unite them to destroy the Auresi.

Adam, the leader of the Essubis tribe, received the messenger of Arowd.

"Venerable Chief Adam, I bring our most sincere greetings to the leader of Araud!" The messenger said.

"Thank you Araud for me, and I wish him good health." Adam smiled.

"I'll bring your blessings back! However, I have also brought a request from the chief of Araud, asking you to help us destroy the Auresi. The messenger said.

Adam laughed and said, "What shall I use to convince my warriors, and what good shall we gain?" ”

"The leader of Araud promises, as long as you are willing to send troops to help us, we will give iron ore as payment!"

Adam was taken aback and said greedily, "How much? ”

"Because we invited the Senon people at the same time, we will divide the income of the iron ore mine equally as a sign of our sincerity."

Adam pondered for a long time, and then said, "I still want half of the property of the Oresi!" ”

"Chief Adam, I need to report back to Chief Arowd before I reply to you!" The messenger's heart jumped.

"Of course! Tell Araud, and if he agrees to my request, I will help him defeat the tribe of the Oresi. ”

"I made a note of it!"

"Okay, you go down and rest first, I've already asked people to prepare wine and women!" Adam smiled.

Auston, the leader of the Sennon tribe, also received Araud's envoy, and when he heard that he had been paid for iron ore, he burst out laughing and readily agreed to the request to send troops.
