Chapter 1123: A Strong Ear
Rome, a bustling country. For thousands of years, starting with BC, it was the first empire in the world, and no country was prosperous, powerful, and comparable to it.
However, underneath the prosperity is the blood and sweat of tens of millions of slaves of all races. Beneath the prosperity lies countless filth, ugliness, hypocrisy, and blood.
The blood and sweat of thousands of slaves poured out the comfortable life of the Romans. When people live well, they need some spiritual food. However, after nearly a thousand years of comfortable life, the Romans were tired of the "plain" singing and dancing, and only blood could release their inner desires.
The Romans created a world-wide civilization. However, it is self-evident what kind of person a person who likes to watch killing.
Hippodiator Arena in the municipality of Capua, province of Campania.
Here, it has become a boiling ocean.
On weekdays, the mild-mannered, civilized and gentlemanly Romans showed their true colors in the face of blood, screaming hysterically one by one.
When the sharp blade slice the throat of the loser, when the fan-shaped blood sprayed out, when the victor raised the bloody head, the Romans were in high spirits.
"The Oriental Foursome!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill! β
With one ear, Liu Bei, he no longer has to worry about fat growing under his buttocks, he has never been stronger than ever. His will is even tougher, already bloodthirsty and crazy. As he raised his opponent's head, shouts roared from all around.
The man screamed hysterically and waved his arms as if he were the one who was the murderer. And the woman looked at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's strong sweaty muscles, scratching her body, and she was already excited to the peak.
VIP seats. The ladies frantically threw countless gold coins.
Batitas, the owner of the Oriental Foursome, smiled like a spring breeze. Take out a small notebook and start arranging the auction after the victory. That's a lot of money. The reward is greater than that of victory.
An old woman with a face full of jewels that radiated a jade-like luster, her face wrinkled, really defiled the gem. But he stretched out his withered hand and pointed it into the field.
"Good, good, good!" Batitas revealed the compatibility of profiteers, and the business was the only one who could do it at this age. He couldn't help but think that this ear was a little inferior in the foursome. But there is something unique about it.
In the field, one ear led the team, with five strands of long hair, leopard head and eyes, and a dagger, stepping on the blood-red sand, and entering the exit channel.
After a while, the lounge.
An ear broke the silence that seemed to last forever, "Kong Ming, I heard that Rome also made a move, this time." Rest in peace...... β
Zhuge Liang's body is no longer slender, it is twice as thick as before. He wore the same gladiator uniform as Liu Bei and others, leather pants, and ten belts staggered in front of his developed pectoral muscles. However. He always wears a scarf, which is a bit nondescript. Wen Yan said lightly: "This qiΔ is all the conspiracy of the Triumphant Emperor. β
Zhuge Liang raised his head. Looking through the narrow window on the height, look at the palm-sized blue sky. "Once, Triumphant the Great" Septimius. Severus "is the most powerful man in the world. His empire is the most powerful and prosperous in the world. β
"However, Qin Zijin appeared ......."
Hearing this name, the three Liu Bei brothers, who had been silent, couldn't help but tremble. Liu Bei stared at the double-strand sword, staring at his own face reflected in the sword. He had never forgotten the past, hatred filled his strong heart, and he swore that he would definitely go back and let the name pay the price he had never paid before.
Zhuge Liang said lightly: "Triumphant Emperor" Septimius. Severus "is the most powerful man in the world, he has nothing to desire, and he will spend the rest of his life in peace in the heart of his vast empire." However, the appearance of Qin Zijin once again aroused the ambition of the Triumphant Emperor. β
"The territory of Great Qin is vast, and it is even larger than Rome. There are many people in the Great Qinzi, even more than Rome. Daqin is rich, it is the upper echelons of Rome, and what he is looking forward to day and night is when the next wave of Daqin merchants will arrive, and what luxury goods will they bring? β
"The citizens of Rome went so far as to use porcelain instead of silverware. The most beautiful woman in Rome wore silk and fine jewelry from Daqin. Prosperous Rome was eager for the ...... of Daqin's goods. The Roman people began to circulate privately that the Hongwu Emperor of Great Qin was the most powerful person in the world, and he ruled over the most land, the most people, and the most prosperous places in the world....... β
Zhuge Liang seemed to be telling a story, a distant story, "these, greatly stimulated the triumphant Emperor Septimius. Severus", he was jealous, he was angry. The dictator who took the whole of Rome in his hands and stepped on the Senate will never allow his empire to be relegated to second place, let alone be able to see others when he looks up. β
Zhuge Liang stared at Liu Bei, "Triumphant Emperor" Septimius. Severus "was a wise king, and he began to lay out ....... Now, the rest has been ....... β
Liu Bei's eyes lit up, his whole body trembled with excitement, he put away the double-strand sword with a loud sigh, and shouted: "What do you mean, Severus's ultimate goal is Daqin?" β
When Zhuge Liang nodded slightly, Liu Bei had already laughed, "Okay, great." After the rest is over, only Rome and Great Qin are left in the world, and when Rome and Great Qin go to war in an all-out way, it will be my chance! β
Guan Yu squinted his eyes, touched the five strands of long hair and did not speak.
Zhang Fei was relatively naΓ―ve, pondering and not understanding, and said with a straight bowel: "Big brother, I'm afraid we can't go back to our situation......." β
Liu Bei snorted coldly, "The victory just now, the battle records we have accumulated, are enough to enter the Campania Provincial Arena. When we stand in the Colosseum, we will be able to meet the Roman Emperor, we will be free, and many other things ....... β
However, Liu Bei still has some worries, I heard that the defending champion is a descendant of the god of competition "Spartacus", Sparks, I heard that it is very powerful. But soon Liu Bei scoffed, in his heart, no one was better than his second and third brothers. "Something's going on, brother!"
An hour later, One Ear returned to the gladiator training camp. The Oriental Foursome is a cash cow, so there is a single room treatment.
After a while, one ear that had just returned to the room ran out screaming, "Batitas, master, we need to talk about ......." β
Who knew that Batitas flicked his sleeves, "The customer is God, only God chooses you, when did you hear that you can choose God?" β
"Wow! No, the Romans didn't believe in God! Liu Bei screamed and was caught by something. I will definitely defeat the descendants of Spartacus and become the new god of competition. Batitas, you're going to be out of luck? β
Batitas counted the money and left, he heard it a lot.
At the same time, the city of Rome was in the center of the Palatine Hill.
Since the time of Augustus in the 1st century BC, the Palatine Hill has been the residence of successive emperors, and has been built and expanded on a large scale many times, with a magnificent palace complex. There are palaces, baths, libraries, theaters, temples and gardens, etc.
The Roman god system was born from the Greek god line. Greece had Zeus, and Rome had the god-king Jupiter. Its grandest temple was in the city of Rome. The Roman emperors and senators who had won the war gathered here to celebrate the victory of the war and sacrifice the captured goods of the war to Jupiter.
The Roman emperor is the god of the mortal world, starting from the foot of the Palatine Mountain, almost like Mount Olympus, and like the Golden Zodiac Mountain, one after another magnificent halls, scattered upwards. Until the top of the hill, there is the Roman emperor Triumphant "Septimius. The main hall of Severus".
On the pavilion, the bustling city of Rome is in full view, and the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains outside the city seem to be in front of you.
Whenever he looked at it from afar, Severus was always able to satisfy his heart's desire, because he knew that he was the most powerful man in the world. Such a title greatly satisfied his vanity.
However, at this time, Severus was scolding, "Vologis V is a pig, no, he is not even as good as a pig." An army of one million, an army of one million took the lead, and they were beaten by Emperor Hongwu! β
First Patriarch Marcy. Antonik, trembling in the face of the emperor's anger, said secretly: "Vologis V is a pig, isn't this good, just in time to take the opportunity to annex Anxi." β
And Severus didn't think so, he originally planned to rest in peace and lose both with Great Qin. However, when the news of Emperor Hongwu's victory over the expeditionary force of Anxi came to rest, Severus knew that the chance of losing both sides was gone. If you don't send troops out of the army, I'm afraid that rest will be Daqin's meal.
In this way, the power of Hongwu the Great extended from the far east to the Persian Gulf, a situation that the Triumphant Emperor Severus would never allow to see. He would never allow a yellow-skinned monkey to stand on top of his head.
"Immediately convey my orders to Caesar, Octavian, Pompey, and others, who, if they want to restore the glory of their ancestors, must take me rest. If they had failed, there would have been no such families in Rome! Severus said viciously.
First Patriarch Marcy. Antonic, trembling with fright. In today's empire, the Senate is an ornament, Severus said that he would kill whoever he wanted, saying that if this family did not, the thousand-year-old family would be destroyed immediately. Even the family of Julius Caesar was no exception.
"Yes!" Maxi. Antonique, with the orders of the emperor, left in a panic.
On the other hand, thousands of miles away, the Kunduz Valley Basin. The rumbling sound echoed in the river valley, and the dust that swayed covered the sky. It's not that this valley, which has been dry for more than a million years, has regained water, but that a huge army has arrived. (To be continued......)
