Caesar also stood up and pressed Calabis on the shoulder, "Immediately, we will run an expedition to Lusitania, and once I become the governor of Spain, you will be the official of the branch and the military tribune." ”

"However, I must serve in the legion for at least six years before I can obtain citizenship, and these things are too far away for me." Calabis sucked his fingers, questioning.

"No, there are no such restrictions for true combat heroes, and besides, the opportunity has come." Caesar smiled mysteriously, then held up an amber tablet and handed it to Calabis, "Your patron, Tuna Lucuras, has some surprising news for you, this is a token he gave me, and you can go to Prima and talk to him about the details." ”

The next day, at the door of Villa Prima, Calabis saw the angry Claudia, and walked out with her skirt, she glanced at Calabis viciously, and suddenly made him feel a sense of crisis that the city gate was on fire and affected the pond fish, "This day is finally here, the hateful tuna, and his stupid brother!" As she spoke, she hid her face and began to sob, and the male and female servants stood on either side of the gate, carrying the boxes and boxes one by one behind the mistress's sedan chariot, while Kelly, who stood with his hands crossed, kept asking Claudia if she could go on the road.

Claudia, who was sitting on the sedan chair, asked the slave carrying the sedan chair not to move for the time being, and then finally accosted Calabis: "I heard that you are in Palatine Hill and give Claudius a villa?" I hope this matter has not been affected by Cicero's accusation against you. Oh, Calabis, you need to know. I have nowhere to go now. Except for that villa. For your sake, I was your mistress, woo woo. She couldn't persevere, and she wailed and cried in front of Calabis, and she didn't know how good it was in her heart.

This girl, it seems that Claudius is going to Ciceross to cheat on me, and she knows it, and most of them are actively involved. Now I don't know what she and my patron have troubled, but she can still ask me to keep my promise.

"Mistress, not Zeng, you will always be my mistress - the villa naturally remains the same, but the painters have not yet gone in to paint the murals, so the accommodation environment is a bit monotonous." With a heavy expression on his face, Calabis assured Claudia.

Claudia burst into tears and smiled, wiped away her sad tears, and suddenly shook out the golden statue of the "Oscar of the God of Drama" that Calabis had given her before, and requested: "My favorite and most loyal Calabis." May I put this little golden statue, a symbol of our strong relationship, on the alcove of the villa? "Calabis said, "Mistress, please take care of it. Then Claudia wept again, sat on the chariot and was lifted up by the slaves, and went away in the streets.

"Just today, she was abandoned by her master." Kelly confessed to Calabis, and then followed the chariot with him.

By the crocodile pond in the villa, Marcos was happily watching two slaves pour a small basket of frogs into it and feed the two predators. In the dome pavilion at the back, Luculas looked at his happy brother with the corners of his mouth down, leaning against the sidebar, not saying a word, he had not seen him for months, his wrinkles were even more, his hair seemed to be completely white, and it was long and messy, swaying in the breeze.

"Kelly should hire you a reliable hairdresser and masseur, which is good for your body and memory." Calabis stood behind Lucuras, the scissors in his hand opening and closing, causing locks of white hair to fall down the patron's side.

"Claudia is right, sooner or later there will be such a day." Lucuras's voice was also hoarse and senile, "She has not given birth to an heir, she is insatiable, she is morally depraved, this kind of woman, I want to keep her to corrupt the lintel?" Then he remembered something, and said, "By the way, Calabis, my child, I have heard of your recent deeds, and now I have something to show you." ”

A slave handed a scroll of letters to Calabis, opened it and looked closely, and it was actually Mithridates, the governor of the kingdom of Persoprus. In a letter from Marcha, the eldest son of Eubert, Marcha said that his father Mithridates was overwhelmed by Pompey's eight legions, and that the army that had been put together by the king of Pontus was once again wiped out, and that Sinop and the land of Pontus fell into the hands of the Romans, so Mithridates took the royal family and less than 3,000 retinues and marched north along Colchis and threatened to garrison the kingdom of Persoprus. Fearing that his own territory would be annexed by his father, Marza wrote to Luculas in his private name, hoping that he could mediate for the Roman Senate to send an army, accept his leadership in the name of the volunteer army, and cooperate with him to keep the territory, in exchange, he was willing to be a vassal of Rome forever, and had no second heart.

"What do you think, Calabis." Lucuras's voice suddenly became clear.

"This" Calabis hesitated in his tone, but at the mention of Marcha, he thought of Helenputina, the queen of the Amazons, and Adiana, the daughter of Mithridates - how was she? What happened to her? I can't help but have all kinds of tastes in my heart.

"Do you really think that Marcha is afraid of his father's pitiful army and does not dare to take him in?"

"Nope."

"Oh, then you talk about your opinion." Lucuras was curious, and he wanted to hear what Calabis had to say about the matter.

"The man whom Marcha fears is Pompey. Pompey was now co-ruler of the twelve kingdoms of Asia Minor, all the kings were prostrate under his power, and the Senate was already terrified of his glory and army, but he was not content to march on the Red Sea, or the Sea of Azov (an inland sea between present-day Crimea and the Black Sea). Once Mithridates fled to the kingdom of Persephorus, Marza feared that Pompey would use this as an excuse to claim his domain. But he himself was unwilling to turn against his father, so he would also give Pompey the excuse to send troops, so he needed another Roman army to conquer his father, so as to ensure that his old territory remained unchanged, and he could also anchor the city of Rome against Pompey. ”

Luculas laughed and said he fully agreed with Calabis's analysis, "But I don't have an army on hand right now. ”

"Etrunia has, although it is only two improvised patchwork city legions, but it already has some actual combat experience." Calabis replied, and then he understood what everyone meant, Crassus, Caesar, and Lucuras. (To be continued......)
