Chapter 4: The Flame of Amisus Part II

Li Bida was awakened by the cheerful laughter of Highbrid, he opened his eyes, walked to the side of the car, and saw the eye-catching scene.

The entire Amisus was trembling in flames, and the resistance inside seemed to have been completely shattered. The entire slope of the mountain forest, up to the flat ground under the city walls, was densely lined with soldiers of the Seventh and Eleventh Legions, and the sound of curses, protests, and intimidation was like a huge wave.

In the firelight, the commander Lucuras rode the white horse, and the six servants around him held the eagle banner and the Fascinus bundle stick, constantly beating the ground, it seemed that Lucuras wanted all the soldiers to remain silent, but few soldiers bought it, and many centurions and soldiers even began to argue and push.

"Haha, Luculas, feel the wrath of the soldiers, you big guy!" Highburida is completely gloating.

"Soldiers, Amisus, this historic and godly city is struggling in the flames, and we need to save its temple and its people. Soldiers, put aside your lanterns and torches for a moment, curb the idea of making a windfall for a while, and give the city a favor and help like a Roman, who truly has mercy on the weak! Luculas waved his arms and shouted at his army. But the filthy and greedy veterans were unmoved, and they collectively struck their shields with their short swords, and soon overwhelmed the sound of the servants striking Phalesis, expressing their dissatisfaction and contempt for the commander's orders.

Highbridar counted from afar, as if Lucuras could hear his displeasure, "Weishenme, Weishenme, such a rich city, but because of your foolish ideas, the soldiers of the Legion are not allowed to touch it?" A rich man like you, who owns countless villas with gardens and fountains around the city of Rome, certainly does not understand the thirst of the soldiers, and deserves to be killed! Maybe one day you'll get the same fate as your ex! ”

When the low-ranking centurion saw that Li Bida was on the side, he also shouted: "Why, even you are dissatisfied with such a hypocritical person? He, Luculas, was the richest man in the city of Rome, and now he did not let the soldiers get the hundred or two hundred drachmas they deserved. Before he could reply, Adiana stepped forward, draped in a blanket, and sarcastically said, "The untouchables and the slaves will denounce as hypocrisy the virtues of the nobles that their stupid minds cannot understand—he is Lucuras, right, he is a true Roman warrior, a worthy rival." ”

Highbrida twisted her head, opened her mouth at "Calabia", and said for a long time, "Maybe I should you that night." ”

"Centurion, your filthy ideas have already led you to a deep sin, and one day you will be punished by the punishment I deserve you." Adiana wouldn't let it go.

He didn't bother to listen to the corners of the two men's mouths, for he saw that Lucuras's efforts to stop the Legion from plundering had clearly failed, and that all the soldiers, whether the Seventh Legion or the Eleventh Legion, whether Roman or Latin, howled excitedly, ignored the commander's shouts, and rushed into the burning city of Amesus, with torches, and carried them into the burning city of Amisus, which had become the second Kabia, the harbor city, and by the next day it was still smoking, and the looters had completely lost order and conscienceInstead of putting out the fires, they set fires everywhere, cutting down any inhabitants they could see, looting any shops, and even the bronze ships on the docks were smashed down as trophies.

The next evening, a heavy rain poured down in time, finally extinguishing the fires in the city and preventing the complete destruction of Amisus.

In the rain, Li Bida held a blanket and covered it over the sill car of Highbrida; Then, back under the elm tree, the rain did not stop, dripping down the dense leaves, and around Demetrius on the stretcher became a shijie of mud and dirty water. Li Bida kept rubbing the rain on his body with his hands, afraid that his wounds would become inflamed, because once the inflammation appeared, in this era, it would only be a dead end.

"I am Galileean, I know Greek, I can write, I can keep accounts—when I was in Aeolia (the northwest coast of Asia Minor), many wealthy Greeks hired me as a governess for two thousand drachmas a year—I could have had not had the damned war, if the damned Romans hadn't come," the Jewish slave seemed to be hot, and kept talking, his water-soaked hair clinging to his head, and his neck and cheeks were horribly red.

"Don't talk anymore, save your energy." Li Bida was relieved on the side, and then he saw that Adiana was still sitting under the tree, and Potty on one side was holding a blanket and using it as a tent to put on the head of the princess of the capital, so as not to get her beautiful maroon hair from being drenched, and then Li Bida couldn't help but feel a little resentful - this was unimaginable in the thinking of the slave two thousand years ago, but a few days ago, he was still a college student who liked to be more honest and angry, even if his current identity changed a little.

"You should give the blanket to Demetrius, it might save his life!" Li Bida's sudden question not only startled Porti, but also surprised Adiana very much, but she still retained her demeanor, just glanced at Li Bida contemptuously, and still retained her unique Guiyu demeanor.

Suddenly, Adiana screamed, for Lybida walked up to her, rudely ripped off the blanket above her head, and handed it to Demetrius. "You despicable you dare" Adiana was in a panic, she couldn't say a complete sentence, Li Bida's behavior was really unexpected by her, she could only tremble with anger, and Li Bida pulled up the blanket. Potty on one side was so surprised that he covered his mouth, not knowing which side to help.

The victory or defeat was soon revealed, Li Bida, as a man, surpassed the petite Adiana in strength, pushing and shoving, Adiana fell into the muddy water, and there was a coaxing voice in Hebrida's ears, "Haha, I said it earlier, to the Greeks, whether it is a man or a girl, there is no need to be polite." Calabis, by now you should be under the elm tree, and in the rain, and this stinky chick of Calabia, wonderful. Master, I am watching the gladiatorial performance on the sidelines, come on, I authorize you, this chick! ”

With red eyes and panting, and holding a blanket, Li Bida forced Adiana to come, and when the other party heard Hybrida's words, he couldn't help but be full of fear, like a noble and poor Persian cat, staring at helpless eyes, "You, you, Calabis, can vent your sexual desire on Potty, but you are not qualified to touch me, because I am the noblewoman of Cappadocia." ”

"Shut up!" Li Bida's shout interrupted Adiana's words, and then he continued in a low voice, "Don't think that you are still some noblewoman, princess. You're down now, and it's better to put away your stinky pies earlier. After speaking, Li Bida shook the drops of water in his hair like a beast and splashed Adiana, but she didn't dare to say anything, and then Li Bida turned around and carefully wrapped the blanket around Demetrius's body, "Potty, find him something to eat, and then go get some firewood, I don't think this rain will last long." ”

"Ugh." Potty subconsciously replied, and when she saw the angry princess, still sitting in the muddy water, she just kissed her arm and flew away.
