Pompey has already decided to give "Explius" the greatest reward.

And the first way he repaid was to fulfill his promise to make "Sprius" a member of the Senate as he wished.

This is what Pompey has to do, and if you want to give it to you personally, you have to pay for it beforehand. At least "Prius" has done it, and now it's up to Pompey.

When Pompey appeared in the Senate, the eyes of those senators were either sneering or sympathetic, probably because of the Poseidon Festival.

But by this time, Pompey had fully recovered, and he no longer cared about anyone's eyes. As long as you can secure your power and finally defeat your worst enemy, Caesar, the sympathizers will be rewarded and the taunters will be ruthlessly driven away.

After a few simple items in the Senate, Pompey spoke: "In this naval battle of Poseidon's Day, there is one man who has performed so well that I think everyone should know his name even without me saying it. Our new hero of Rome - Sevious! ”

Pompey took the initiative to propose the name of Sevieus, which still surprised everyone, and no one dared to open his mouth to take Pompey's words......

Pompey said slowly, "Of course a hero deserves to be rewarded, and my suggestion is to form a new legion, which will be controlled by Sevious himself!" ”

This is really unexpected. Those who knew Pompey's temper felt a kind of incredibleness. Sevios took Pompey's dignity and the glory and cheers that should have belonged to Pompey. Pompey is entirely capable of revenge. But now instead of doing so, he actually shook Sevius back to control the Legion?

"It's certainly no problem to let Sevios master the new legion, but where are you going to send him?" A patriarch raised his own questions.

"In Gaul. Our brave Caesar is leading the equally brave Roman soldiers in battle......" Pompey slowly said his true intentions: "But the damned barbarians have defeated Caesar, and although we have sent the legion of Sentumarous, we have not made much progress. The arrogance of the barbarians must be struck, and the insult to the Roman Republic must be repaid tenfold. Therefore I propose here, to the distinguished senators, that the brave Sevios be sent to Gaul, he and Caesar. The bravest commanders of the two Roman Republics, together with Centoumarus, will achieve a great victory for us! ”

Lose your marbles. Pompey is really crazy. Many veterans and parliamentarians thought so...... He actually wants to keep his two enemies together, doesn't this add a bigger enemy to himself?

But there are some people who don't think so at all, and the only thing they think about is that Pompey was too clever to put Caesar and Sevios together...... Totally conceivable. Caesar and Sevieus, two immensely proud men, are together. What kind of fire will collide, Pompey may even destroy two of his enemies in one fell swoop......

Of course, such thoughts can only be hidden in the heart......

"Distinguished senators, distinguished councillors, can this proposal of mine be approved?" Pompey raised some of his voice: "I don't have any selfish motives, everything I do is for the great Roman Republic to achieve greater victories!" ”

There was applause, and these Senate guys did not want to offend Pompey. I don't want to offend Sevious either.

Pompey's first motion was successfully passed.

And Sevious, who was also eligible to participate in the conference, finally got his wish, and he was finally able to regain control of the legion. He was finally able to return to his familiar battlefield......

Sprius fulfilled his promise, which made Sevius's inner gratitude to him beyond words......

And at this time Pompey continued: "Distinguished parliamentarians, have you forgotten the defeat of Crassus? ”

He suddenly mentioned this problem, which made the atmosphere of the scene suddenly become solemn.

The defeat of Crassus was also the defeat of Rome as a whole, something that every Roman did not want to talk about too much.

Pompey's tone became extremely solemn: "What a respectable elder Crassus is. He succeeded in suppressing the revolting slaves at the height of the Republic's crisis, and he was my best friend. He was defeated in Rest, and the despicable Resters poured melted gold into his throat, an insult to the Roman commander, and to the whole Republic. The Holy Republic must not turn a blind eye to such a disgrace! ”

No one dares to express their opinions at this time...... All the people listened silently as Pompey continued:

"We must take even more brutal revenge for the red disgrace inflicted on the Romans, so I propose to form legions and wage punitive operations against the Sabbations!"

On this occasion, there was an objection: "Pompey, I fully agree with your words, the dignity of the Roman man cannot be challenged. But as Caesar chooses to deal with the barbarians, and our defeat at Sabbath worries us, who are you prepared to send to shoulder this burden? ”

"Hawkham." Pompey did not hesitate to propose this candidate: "He has followed Crassus in quelling the slave rebellion, and he has also followed Kalassus in the war against Sabbath, no one is more experienced than him, he is more than capable of the task we have given him, and at the same time, we will support him with the new legion that we will set up......"

He finally slowly stated his intentions: "The new legion will fight under the command of Hawkham, and the most important chief centurion of the legion, I would like to appoint my adopted son Yakulius!" ”

There was a whisper, and now everyone understood that Pompey had used this brain.

Judging by the age of Yakurius, he could not hold a higher position. The chief centurion would be his only option. But as he gets older, Pompey will definitely try his best to move his adopted son's position up step by step.

At that point, the Legion Opportunity would actually become under Pompey's direct control.

To achieve this. He deliberately threw Sevious first to gag everyone's mouths, and then said his direct thoughts......

From this point of view, Pompeo was undoubtedly quite successful.

When the vote came, almost everyone voted in favor, including Sevios.

If it had been before, Sevios would never have agreed. But now that he has fulfilled his wish contentedly, no matter how stubborn he is, he will never want to have anything else happening.

Watching myself get two proposals in a row passed. Pompey's heart was extremely satisfied.

Explius was such a great fellow that he had foreseen this situation and even designed it for himself.

Now that his wish has been fulfilled step by step, it is time to do something for Prius.

"The third thing. It's what I'm supposed ......to do as the sole consul," Pompey paused and continued, "You know. Two seats have been vacated in the Parliament and qualified candidates must be found to fill them. I have two nominations, one is the venerable Mr. Bibias, whose character and integrity, I don't think anyone doubts it......"

He first threw out his first bait, the office of the parliamentarian is not so important, and many major issues often skip the parliament. It was directly up to the Senate to decide, and this Bibias was a kind man. There were also many friends in the Senate, and Pompey's nomination was approved without any opposition.

"As for the second man, I think there are many here who have heard his name but have not seen him in person......" Pompey finally stated his true purpose: "An upright citizen of the Roman Republic, Tias. Murles. Explius! ”

As soon as the name was named, there was another discussion.

"Sprius, please stand up and meet with you."

In Pompey's voice, Wang Weiyi stood in front of everyone.

Opposition soon emerged: "Pompey, we have heard some rumors that this Prius paid for most of the expenses of this Poseidon Festival, but this does not justify his election to the council. ”

"Yes." Then someone said, "He wasn't even a true Roman citizen." I had heard that his ancestors had left Rome long ago to take this adventure in the East, and how could a man so strange to Rome sit in such an important position as a councilor? ”

The opposition began to increase gradually, and Pompey patiently waited for everyone to finish speaking, and then said to Wang Weiyi: "Explius, do you have anything to say about these accusations?" ”

"Yes." Wang Weiyi said calmly: "Yes, my ancestors left Rome very early, but no matter where they were, they never forgot the city of Rome. You can't imagine the hardships of our wanderings, all you see is our scenery, and if you need it, I can tell you everything you want to know about the road......"

There was silence in the venue, and everyone listened to Wang Weiyi's words:

"My grandfather, my father, never forgot Rome, and their only dream was to be able to come back one day, to Rome, which they loved so much. Even before my grandfather died, he had not forgotten this, and I will never forget that he took my father's hand and told him that sooner or later we would come home......"

His untruthfulness touched the hearts of many, after all, it was the pride of the Romans - there was a merchant who loved his country so much.

Wang Weiyi did not let go of such an opportunity: "My father did not fulfill this dream, and I, in the end, fulfilled their entrustment, and I returned here." I love it here, and no one loves my home more than I do......"

He said it so emotionally that some people even quietly wiped their eyes.

Wang Weiyi's tone became more and more heavy: "I have gone through countless hardships, and I used to blame my grandfather and father for why I had to come back, but when I arrived in Rome, I immediately understood. Such a magnificent building, such a powerful country, such a proud citizen......"

His voice suddenly raised: "When I saw all this. No matter what kind of hardship I have forgotten, no matter what kind of hardship, it is worth it. You may not elect me to Parliament, but that doesn't stop me from being patriotic. Even if I leave Rome tomorrow. Wherever I go, I am proud to be a Roman citizen! ”

These words aroused the pride of all the Romans, and the hostility towards him naturally decreased, and some even applauded for it!

"Listen, this is the cry of a Roman citizen!" Pompey struck while the iron was hot: "Is it just because they are seeking greater glory for Rome that they should be denied Roman citizenship?" No, that's not what a republic should do. Ladies and gentlemen. I can also tell you that as long as Sprius is elected to the council, he will bring more food to Rome. Let's stop worrying about these things! ”

The last words touched everyone's hearts at once......

"I'm in favor of Sprius being elected to Congress!" Someone spoke.

The people looked towards it and saw that it was the venerable patriarch Ovis.

Wang Weiyi smiled in his heart, it should be Gaius's letter that worked. Orvis was always a supporter of Gaius, the people whom Gaius entrusted his care. We will never let it go.

Orvis said slowly, "You can think about it. At the time of the Poseidon Festival, Prius paid for most of the expenses, and if he wasn't proud to be a Roman, why would he do such a thing? Think about it again, are we going to hold the Poseidon Festival again next year? Who will pay for this fee? Are you all here? Ah, give him the seat of the councillor, and at least that will minimize the loss of our property......"

A laugh rang out. Although Orvis was half-joking there, it undoubtedly touched everyone's heart.

"I'm in favor of it too." Sevious also stood up and said. He knew that this was his best chance to repay Splitus: "I have never seen such a generous and upright man who would have been the best Roman citizen." He will also become the best MP. When he gets older, maybe he'll be a member of the Senate. I'm for it! ”

I'm in favor - the proud Sevio said the same thing.

"Then let's vote now." Pompey said without missing the opportunity.

His cronies voted in favor without any doubt, while the absolute majority of others, under the influence of Orvis and Sevius, cast their own votes.

In the end, Pompey's nomination was approved by an overwhelming majority.

A new member of the Roman Parliament was born:

Tias. Murles. Explius!

In another time and space, all people are accustomed to calling him another name:

Ernst. Alexon. Feng. Bram - Skull Baron!

Wang Weiyi couldn't help but laugh...... Skeleton Baron? Councillor Splius?

I never dreamed that one day I would become a member of the Roman Republic.

It seems that this is really an interesting era with surprises everywhere......

．．．．．．

"Councillor Spreus, congratulations." When the meeting was over, and after receiving the congratulations of the crowd, Sevious came to him: "I still firmly believe that what I have just said will one day be the youngest member of the Senate in the history of Rome." ”

"Thank you for voting for me, and thank you for your blessings to me." Wang Weiyi smiled and said: "Although the Senate has approved you to form a legion, all the expenses still have to be paid by yourself, Sevious, if you need it, you can come to me anytime and anywhere, and I will give you all the support." ”

"I really don't know how to repay your generosity." Sevios said heartily.

True, the formation of the corps is a big problem. For example, the permanent legions, all their expenses are borne by Rome, but like the legions of Sevios or Sentumaros before, all the costs have to be paid by the manager himself, and this is often a very large expense.

Because of this, the first thing Roman generals who were appointed commanders often did was to find a new patron.

Now that Splitus has addressed his concerns in advance, how can he not be extremely grateful?

Sevios also made up his mind that no matter what Prius needed his help with in the future, even if he lost his life......

They chatted for a while, and when they saw Pompey approaching here, Sevios hurriedly said, "I will come to you, then I will take my leave." ”

When Pompey arrived, all he saw was the back of Sevious, and he smiled coldly: "This simple-minded guy is probably still complacent about that appointment, right?" ”

"It's all in your hands, Pompey." Wang Weiyi smiled and said, "I think you will soon get rid of the enemy you hate the most, and the power of Rome will be completely in your hands." ”

"And all thanks to you, Councilor Prius." Pompey also smiled and said: "Some people have already guessed our alliance, but what does it matter, a strong alliance is always feared and jealous. And I am sure that as long as we can unite together, any enemy will be trampled under our feet. ”

Wang Weiyi nodded: "Yes, I think the same way!" ”

And what he wants more is that there will come a day when Pompey will regret his decision! (To be continued......)
