In the early morning of the next day, urgent news came, Lucania's Sixth Legion suddenly stirred up and began to plunder the surrounding towns, "Sure enough, he went to his own legion, and ordered Antony's Fifth Legion to be armed, and went to Lucania, where he completely defeated Lypida, and announced a pardon for Pompey's two sons, and ordered the Spanish and Sicilian legions and fleets to also rush to Rome." ◎”

But before evening, news came from Etruña that the veterans and slaves of Fesule had revolted and began to frantically cut off the roads to the north and attack the surrounding towns.

The elders in the synagogue screamed, and then they could only send a legal officer with a stick to calm the situation, but more people were asking, "Where is Li Bida, Lucania is in turmoil, but Etrunia in the north is also restless, where will he appear?" ”

"Quiet, quiet! We should openly discuss a plan, that is, Li Bida's escape route. "Casca asked the crowd to come together.

"His wife and family base are in Sardinia, so he will imitate the old Li Bida and go there is the most likely."

"No, most of his legions are in Macedonia or Greece, and he will surely cross the Adriatic and go to take over those armed!"

"Perhaps, he was hiding somewhere in Lucania, Etrunia, or southern Gaul, because the new citizens and freedmen there embraced him."

"Did you think that he might have deceived us, and then quietly sailed by Brindisi to Cyrenaica, where he also had his city, his chamber of commerce, and a reinstated legion?"

"Maybe go further. Went to the East. He had supported the prince of Parthia. He also maintained good and close relations with the royal families of Gaecia, Egypt, and Eubertnia, and Caesar also left three legions in Alexandria, which Caesar is said to have entrusted to him during his lifetime. ”

"Or possibly to Numidia, as Marius did then, where the provincial envoy Celeste, and the two tetra-lords, Hitius and Margo, were all close friends of him."

In the midst of all the opinions, Casca and Spinzel's faces gradually turned pale. In a cold sweat, they felt that it was not their own side that was chasing Li Bida now, but that Li Bida had disappeared, and then would appear anywhere and calmly besiege the city of Rome.

The city of Rome is a plaything in the hands of this monster?

"Send heralds and attendants in any direction you have reminded, and tell everyone that if he is willing, he will not be in danger of the republic. The Senate may consider withdrawing the edict. Eventually, Spinzer uttered the words that had no position. Immediately provoked anger and scolding.

At this time, Cicero laughed on his back, his prophecy came true, and these fools would soon be reunited, but they were only crying and sweating with each other, and many of the patriarchs saw this scene, and abandoned the accusing Casca, Spinzel, and others, and gathered around Cicero, begging the eloquents to speak up if they had a good plan, for now that the country has reached a critical point of survival, you patriot must not sit idly by and watch the country fall into chaos!

But Cicero stood up and shouted directly, "Your method of suppressing Li Bida is simply stupid, when did the Senate be occupied by your group of wine bags and rice bags, and you actually tried to win over Anthony, which will only plunge the country into a terrible disaster." So, Casca's head is full of violence, and the wisdom of Spinzer is only what his wife is willing to admit, and as for Luga, he has paid with his life for his stupidity. Now all the dangerous abysses are actually Caesar's legacy, that is, the country of the Republic, there used to be a popular saying in the Sulla era, the Republic is a seductive and beautiful widow, everyone wants to possess her, not only wonderful **, but also a rich dowry, so when we are powerless to prevent all kinds of people from coveting her, the only thing we can do is to choose a relatively less bad man for her. Isn't this the wisdom of the Senate that has lasted for hundreds of years, choosing the lesser of two evils? Now don't keep your eyes on Lybidaeus, he must be on the way to the flight and keep issuing documents, you are chasing him, he is like Daciasaurus, he can spew out black poisonous mist, covering and disturbing the entire ocean and the 6 lands, his clerical skills are under the tutelage of Caesar, not only password protection, and can occupy the written word on horseback, the degree is extremely fast, this country is full of his relatives, friends and minions, I have long persuaded you not to rashly become enemies with it, he wants to avenge Caesar, I think this is something that neither fate nor the country can stop. ”

Cicero's grand argument immediately made many senators sit down in despair, is it really impossible to fight? It is said that Li Bida now has a list of sixty people in his hand, and if he settles the score, many of the people present will go to the temple of the plague god Hades, but then Cicero's statement of "wanting to be promoted and suppressed first" continues to attract everyone, "But I still have a way to eliminate the possible slaughter." ”

At this moment, everyone threw that group of goods aside, and begged Cicero, and called him "the true father of the nation of Rome, the terminator of the Catiline conspiracy, and the benchmark of the republic", seeing that the time was ripe, Cicero smiled proudly, "In the current situation, we must still uphold that point of view, choose the lesser of two evils, what is the identity of Libertius?" He is the guardian of Caesar's adopted son, so as long as we can call the young man in peace, inherit Caesar's inheritance, the whole situation, including Lypida's revenge plan, will be there," Cicero made a "quiet" gesture in his speech, meaning that as long as he grasped Octavian's heart, the matter would be settled.

Many of the patriarchs admired it, but it seemed that Cicero's vision was more far-reaching, and more unique and concise. Then Cicero sat down comfortably, looked around at everyone, and said in a tone of affirmation, "As for the young man named Turinus, rest assured, that he, like many of the best young men of Rome, admires me greatly, and desires my guidance, and that he will obey me if I come forward." ”

"And what is Liberdaius going to do now?"

"Reassure him, his son is a companion with Turinus, and if we first call him tribune for the next year, we will send him a signal of goodwill and peace—and then the city of Rome will be at peace forever!" Cicero's words were rewarded with applause and cheers from the audience.

The Senate quickly issued an urgent edict summoning Octavian and others to Rome to play the role of "arbiter between the Senate, the people, and the former cavalry commanders."

By this time, Octavian had arrived in the picturesque city of Capua, and his ranks had swelled to three thousand, with more and more people joining along the way.

"There is no room for arbitration in this matter, unless the Senate dissolves my guardian's declaration of the public enemy." Facing the herald of the Senate, Octavian, who was holding a paperwork, said. (To be continued!)
