Wang Weiyi knew that he could leave Rome again, and that he had completed his mission here.

And what about Caesar? What attitude will this ambitious, empty-eyed guy have towards Rome, who betrayed him?

The answer will soon be forthcoming.

Pompey sent the order of the Senate to Caesar as soon as possible, and when Caesar received this order from the Senate, his anger could not be expressed in words, as no one expected.

Although he was frustrated and annoyed by being defeated several times by the barbarians, this time it was utter anger......

Caesar thought that he had done too much for Rome, and without himself, there would not have been so many victories, let alone the Gallic provinces of the Roman Republic.

And now? Now they're actually going to recall themselves!

What the recall means, Caesar knows better than anyone. He will never be able to return to Gaul, he will no longer be able to command his mighty legions to continue fighting, he will lose his freedom in life, he will lose everything.

Power, in particular, was the last thing Caesar could bear to lose......

"What do you think, Caleni?" Holding back his anger, Caesar asked coldly.

"I don't know, most respectable governor......" Calleni knew all too well what was at stake, but the mystery was not something he could speculate about.

"What about you, Gaius?" Caesar set his eyes on Gaius again.

"I don't know what to say, my Caesar." Gaius replied respectfully.

But this time Gaius. But I vaguely guessed what was going on, Ernst. Bram once said that Caesar must have befallen a terrible disaster. And at that time, it will also be the moment to decide your own fate......

He was glad he was able to recognize Ernst. Bream, glad he was on the right side, otherwise, there must have been his own name among the people who were recalled......

He made up his mind to get out of the crisis in the center as soon as possible, no matter what, even if he turned against Caesar because of it.

"Don't you all want to say it?" Caesar laughed, "Because none of you dare to disobey the orders of the Senate." None of you want to offend the Senate, and you fear that your future will be ruined, and that your family in Rome will be implicated. But have you ever thought that even if I do return to Rome, but without my protection, will your future and your family be saved? ”

Kaleni and the other Caesar's men nodded involuntarily. They and Caesar are one and the same. No one can leave anyone. If Caesar loses power, then they will inevitably be implicated.

Of course, Gaius's name had to be crossed out among those who were worried......

"Caesar, we are willing to follow you in whatever we do." Kaleni seems to have made up her mind: "Whatever you want to do, I'll always be there for you!" ”

"Yes, we will always be by your side." The rest of the people spoke in unison, and even Gaius reluctantly expressed such an attitude.

Caesar nodded with satisfaction: "Thank you." My friends, I assure you. I will do everything in my power to ensure that you are not implicated in the slightest. But before we can do that, we have to figure out the real purpose of the Senate and Pompey. We're going to find out where they're going to put me......"

"Dear Caesar, Mark. Anthony is coming. ”

At this moment, a report interrupted Caesar's train of thought, and his face suddenly showed joy: "Quick, call Anthony in." ”

When Antony appeared in front of Caesar, the governor of the Gallic province could not wait to say: "Antony, you have just returned from Rome, and no one knows the situation in Rome better than you, come, tell me, what is happening in Rome?" ”

"Very scary thing." Antony's answer did not hesitate at all: "Everything was provoked by Pompey, and most of the senators were on Pompey's side. They are jealous of your prowess and your prestige, so they make an excuse to get you back to Rome and put you to death. As your relative and most loyal subordinate, I strongly oppose your return to Rome. There, the dastardly sword is already waiting for you......"

The room was silent, and no one spoke...... They knew that the situation was already very serious, but they didn't expect it to be so serious.

"Are you sure, Anthony?" It was a long time before Caesar asked slowly.

"I'm sure, Caesar." Anthony nodded vigorously, "That's what Councillor Prius told me. ”

"Councillor Spreus, who is that? Why have I never heard his name? "I started to wonder if I had been away from Rome for too long.

"Tias. Murles. Splius, a young councillor in the limelight, and a man whom Pompey valued very much......" Antony quickly replied: "Caesar, although she has received Pompey's respect, I can see that he still respects you infinitely, he told me carefully about the crisis in Rome, and repeatedly told me to tell you that you must not go back, there are great traps waiting for you!" ”

Caesar fell silent again......

He had to make a choice, obey the orders of the Senate, and return to Rome, then he would henceforth lose everything he was having; Or refuse to obey the orders of the Senate, then he will have to face a direct war with Rome!

What choice should you make? He looked at his subordinates and saw that everyone was looking at him with extremely nervous eyes, and he knew very well that he was currently their backbone, and everything he did would have the most direct impact on them.

Caesar was silent, silent. After a long time, he slowly spoke: "My aunt Julia's family is said to be the descendants of the emperor in terms of matrilineal, and the descendants of immortal gods in terms of paternal side. Because of Marcius. The Lux family can be traced back to Ankus. Marcius. And the family of Julius can be traced back to Venus. Thus our Zuki has both the divine right of a king and the right to demand the same reverence as God, to whom even kings are subject to it. ”

As soon as his men heard these words, they understood that this series of narratives meant that Caesar was deifying himself as a descendant of the king, a descendant of God. Paving the way for the seizure of supreme power in the future.

Caesar had already decided not to return to Rome......

He took a deep breath: "I know that once I go back, I am waiting for me." What will await you, I promised you that you would share the riches with you, but until then. I need you to bear the suffering with me. My friends. Will you follow me, the bravest generals of Rome? ”

"I do, Caesar!" Anthony was the first to half-kneel on the ground and said in the words full of emotion: "Whatever choice you make, I will be with you, and wherever you go, you can see Mark by your side. Anthony's figure. No matter what kind of enemy is in front of you, Mark. Anthony will be the first to charge for you! ”

Caesar hadn't had time to express his gratitude. Then he heard Calleni say in a loud voice, "No one has followed you longer than I have followed, so why would Anthony rob me of my glory?" Caesar. I'm the one at the forefront! ”

"Thank you, all my friends!" In one confession of allegiance after another, Caesar raised his voice: "With you with me, I will have nothing to fear." And what about you, Gaius, why don't you speak? Don't you want to be with me? ”

Gaius calmed his emotions for a moment: "Caesar, you misunderstood, I'm always by your side, like Kaleni, but I have to think more about you. If we get out of here, then what about the barbarians? I'm not sure they'll pass up the chance that you're not the best here. ”

Caesar and his generals found themselves facing this serious problem.

Yes, what about those barbarians once they are powerful? Judging from their current situation, they will not hesitate to launch a new round of attacks on Gaul, and once the main force is taken away by Caesar, the rest of the people will not be able to withstand the attack from the barbarians.

"You asked a question that gave me a headache, my friend, but I thank you for giving me a headache like this." Caesar hesitated: "Gaius, if I order you to stay here, will you be able to make the barbarians fearful and defend me against Gaul?" ”

"I cannot make the barbarians fear me, nor can I hold all of Gaul with the strength of a legion." Gaius said matter-of-factly.

Caesar didn't blame him, so many armies couldn't stop the barbarians, how could it be possible to rely on him alone?

None of his subordinates were willing to stand up, and even the bravest Gaius was afraid, so would the others think that their bravery could surpass Gaius?

Caesar suddenly smiled: "Then in that case, let's negotiate with the barbarians." ”

"What? Negotiate with the barbarians? All the people cried out.

This was so inconceivable to the Romans that the noble Romans should be allowed to bow their noble heads to satisfy the unreasonable demands of the barbarians?

"Caesar, we will never negotiate with the barbarians." Anthony said angrily: "I have brought my own legion, and I will launch the most ferocious attack on the barbarians, so that they will honestly stay on the side of the Rhine, and let them know who they are!" ”

"Anthony, I admire your courage and have no doubt about your desire for victory, but you underestimate the barbarians too much." Caesar sighed: "At least in the current situation, we are not capable of defeating the barbarians, if we fight on both sides at the same time, then we will not get anything, we can only lose, and then we will either be cut off by Pompey or our heads will be cut off by the barbarians." ”

Anthony opened his mouth to say something, but he still didn't say it.

Yes, it's been too short to be here......

Caesar looked at his subordinates calmly: "Who, then, wants to take on this responsibility for negotiating with the barbarians?" ”

No one answered him. If these people were to go to war and die for Caesar, the vast majority of them would not hesitate. But negotiating with the barbarians is another issue.

This is not only a dangerous task, but it is also unclear what the consequences will be in the future.

If Caesar had been able to achieve victory over Rome, they would have been remembered as a heroic feat forever. But what if it fails? Not only did they become traitors to Rome, but the stain of bowing to the barbarians would bring shame on their families that would never be washed away!

Caesar was slightly disappointed, and when his eyes fell on Gaius, Gaius finally spoke: "If you really don't have a better candidate, then I am willing to take on this responsibility for you." ”

"Gaius. My most trusted friend. Caesar was overjoyed: "Rest assured, I will never forget what you have done to me, and your loyalty will be rewarded with my most loyalty!" ”

Until this time. Caesar didn't know that Doudoueus had betrayed himself, and that everything he did was for himself......

Gaius was also thinking about what he should do. To negotiate with the barbarians is to negotiate with Ernst. Bream negotiations only, there is no danger. But what next. What should I do?

Gaius couldn't answer himself for the time being. Maybe Ernst. Bram will have a good arrangement......

"Then, while Gaius negotiates with the barbarians, all the legions are ready!" Caesar's voice rang in everyone's ears: "Let those in Rome know what terrible punishment will come upon us for betraying us!" ”

Caesar had made up his last decision, and he was convinced that victory would be his!

He asked most of his generals to prepare, leaving only his closest cronies, Calleni and Anthony, and then asked lightly, "What do you think?" ”

Anthony and Caleni glanced at each other, neither of them knowing how to answer.

The most rear. Or Caesar himself said: "I fought in Gaul for almost less than ten years, but I swept over more than eight hundred cities. Having conquered three hundred peoples, and at various times fought a total of three million soldiers, and a million enemies were directly destroyed in hand-to-hand combat, and the number of prisoners far exceeded that, no one in the whole of Rome contributed more to Rome than I did! ”

Speaking of which, he paused for a moment before continuing, "And with 10 battle-hardened, disciplined legions willing to fight with me wherever I want. This strength is not as great as mine in all of Rome combined. Did they think of this when the Senate decided to betray me? No, they didn't, they naively thought I would do whatever they were told, no resistance, no different voices, but they forgot one thing, I am Caesar! ”

They forgot to look at one thing - I am Caesar!

When he said that, Anthony and Kaleni felt more inspired than ever. They thought that as long as they followed such a commander, the final victory would definitely be theirs!

Caesar then asked, "Antony, tell me, have there been any good generals in Rome?" ”

"There's one, it's Pompey's adopted son, Yakurius." Antony quickly replied, "He did a great job in the battle with the Parthians, but he lost to one man, Sevios, on the Poseidon's Day!" ”

"Sevios?" Caesar's face became a little solemn: "Has Sevious started to show up again?" ”

He was still a little jealous of Sevieus, who had made great achievements for Rome, and Caesar, who was still a Roman consul at that time, was jealous of Sevious's military exploits and dismissed him. Caesar always believed that only this man was worthy of being his opponent.

"Yes, Sevious." Antony replied in the affirmative: "Sevius not only defeated Yakurius at the Poseidon Festival, but also regained the power to command the legions. His legions will soon reach Gaul to share power with you. ”

"Then, let's defeat the Sevious legion first!" Caesar immediately made up his mind: "This man is very good at fighting and commanding, and I know what Pompey is trying to do with him." He wished that I and him would lose both so that he could get the most benefit. ”

"Caesar, please appoint me as a striker." Anthony said excitedly: "I admit that Sevio will fight, but will I lose to him?" If you can't accede to my request, then it will be considered a shame and I will even wash it away by committing suicide! ”

"Anthony, besides you, I'm not appointing a second person to be my vanguard!" Caesar slapped Anthony on the shoulder: "I just said that I have ten legions, but in fact I was wrong, I should count yours, I have eleven legions, and you, will bring me the greatest glory!" And, of course, you, Calleni, my friend, you will be the first to enter Rome for me! ”

"That's our honor, Caesar!" Anthony and Calleni said in unison.

Caesar was not worried about Pompey and the guys in the Senate, his only concern was the barbarians on the other side of the Rhine. Will they be willing to negotiate? Will Gaius be able to complete the task he has given him? If the barbarians refuse to negotiate, what should they do?

Caesar didn't want these things to happen, he had to eliminate all the hidden dangers before the decisive battle! (To be continued......)
