Jin Zhan didn't expect Spartacus to figure out the key so quickly, and couldn't help but applaud. The rest of the crowd were also inspired and encouraged by his clever plan.

Jin Zhan didn't mean to be tricky, but he wanted to help Spartacus establish his prestige in the rebel army as soon as possible. In this way, so that the key plan is told by Spartacus, it can naturally gain people's hearts.

In a cheerful atmosphere, Jin Zhan interrupted again: "There is still some time before Graeber's army is dispatched, we must conduct effective military training for the existing troops as soon as possible, and improve our immediate combat capability as much as possible." ”

Omennas volunteered, "I'll take them to train and teach them standard combat techniques in a standard dueling method. ”

Jin Zhan smiled and shook his head: "Not only those slaves, but also gladiators need to be trained. ”

Kress and the others widened their eyes, looked at Jin Zhan and said, "Brother Jin Zhan, do we also have to be trained?" Could it be that you are going to pass on your mysterious body skills to us? ”

Hearing Cress's question, several other people suddenly became interested. For Jin Zhan's peculiar body style, they have been greedy for a long time.

Jin Zhan smiled mysteriously and said, "It's much stronger than my body, and you will naturally know when the time comes!" ”

The port of Napolus was bustling with huge merchant ships day and night. Dozens of tall sailing ships are docked densely above the docks. At a glance, the mast is like a forest, the sails cover the sky and the sun, the flags are waving, and the voices of people are boiling, which is a lively and noisy scene of prosperity.

When Ai Li just saw the scene in front of him, he whispered as if he was the next day: "More than a month ago, our companion and I were just sold in this port. He was then sold to the Battitas family as a reserve gladiator, and it didn't take long for me to be able to revisit the land with so many powerful brothers. ”

The slaves and overseers who worked the docks did not notice anything unusual, and Eligang and the others were dressed in the labor clothes of the dock workers, and they looked no different from ordinary people.

When the overseers saw them gossiping together, they frowned and shouted, "Aren't you bold?" It's still chatting with the sky, so why don't you come over and move things. ”

Eligang and the others resigned themselves to the order. Fortunately, the people on the dock are really complicated, and it is difficult to identify them. Therefore, a large number of gladiators such as Spartacus, Eligon, and Cress have quietly blended into the dock staff. In fact, if someone with a heart takes a closer look, they will still find some abnormalities.

Because the average size of the workers who are active in all labor lines today is much taller than usual. The efficiency of labor is also surprisingly amazing, and this group of strong workers efficiently completed the workload that was originally planned for half a day. For this kind of good thing, the overseers are naturally happy to see it, how can they be bored and even suspicious.

Due to the early completion of the work, the supervisors naturally quietly left to have fun, and the management of the workers was naturally much lax.

And this group of efficient and strong laborers disappeared one after another on the docks like a trick.

"Boss, the goods that came here today are really good." A muscular man said to another man who was noticeably much shorter.

"Alas, don't mention it. What if the goods are good? Now that the city is full of trouble by that Spartacus, the original big customers have disappeared recently, and I have saved up several batches of such goods here. ”

The strong man was bored with himself, and said with a sneer: "Boss, don't worry. The Spartacus and the fleeing gladiators are probably about to be swept away by the army by now, right? Even if it doesn't, it's just hiding in all kinds of deep mountains and old forests. It won't be long before our business is booming again. ”

"How can you be so optimistic? You don't know how much trouble those gladiators caused in the arena of Capua this time. This is something that the entire Senate of the Roman Republic is shaken by. ”

"How many people are willing to wade into this troubled water to buy gladiators at this juncture? Even decent arenas have come to a complete halt. The middle-aged man sighed leisurely.

"Alas. If you had put it in the past, this kind of good goods would have been sold out a long time ago. Now that I have swallowed so many strong men, not only is there a problem with cash flow, but I am also very worried that they will make trouble like those gladiators in Capua. The middle-aged man continued.

"Boss, don't worry." The strong man replied, "In order to ensure the safety of this shipment, I have mobilized all kinds of elite forces to constantly guard the surroundings day and night. There are also a lot of elite soldiers who moved directly from General Varilius. ”

Hearing this reply, the middle-aged man's expression was relieved, obviously very satisfied with the strong man's arrangement. Praise: "Very good, you did a good job." Also pay attention to the attitude towards this batch of goods, so that they are full of food and drink, otherwise if there is really an incident, I am afraid it will not be so easy to clean up. ”

"Boss, don't worry, I'll take care of it." The strong man replied confidently.

This middle-aged man is none other than the big boss of the slave trading market at the Capnia docks. And a strong man beside him is the leader in charge of the security of the docks.

In response to the impact of the Spartacus uprising, they mobilized and recruited a lot of stability maintenance forces from all over the country. On the one hand, it prevents the newly arrived slaves from following the example of the Spartacus rebels from rioting en masse. On the other hand, it is also necessary to beware of the rebels on the Kapua side.

Therefore, the people around the port of Napolus at this time were very complicated. In particular, in addition to the army of Varilius, the dock owner had to recruit a lot of strong labor for logistics supplies and miscellaneous duties at the docks. Therefore, in the case of scarcity of manpower, Spartacus and the others were relatively easy to blend into this batch of newly recruited miscellaneous servants.

Although they said that they were wary of the rebels, they did not have any corresponding precautions against this kind of scattered infiltration that was broken into pieces. Who would have thought that the slave rebels, who were wanted everywhere, would have the audacity to infiltrate the well-defended port of Napolus.

A few buildings next to the docks were slave guard camps. The camps were now filled with physically strong gladiator candidates.

Together with the fresh men who had just arrived from Egypt today, the camp was now stocked with more than 400 gladiator candidates, as well as about 300 ordinary slaves.

To deal with so many potentially unstable personnel, the dock owner arranged for thousands of complex defenses. And this kind of crazy recruitment like no refusal gave Jin Zhan a lot of opportunities for them to take advantage of. At this time, all the people in the rebel army who were not too weak had basically slowly mixed into the city defense team of Napoles.

The absolute main force of the city's defense force was the regular Roma army from Varilius, which numbered about 2,000. For a Roma army of this size, its combat effectiveness should not be underestimated.

However, compared to Graeber's army, Varilius, a paper general who had not experienced the test of war, was obviously not able to fully carry forward the traditional advantages of the Roma army, and was slack in the organization, discipline and training of the army.

When the moon is dark and the wind is high, the number of soldiers willing to patrol the harbor seriously has been decreasing. And the soldiers, who were supposed to be on duty, were now gathering in front of several bonfires to feast on sumptuous food that had come out of nowhere.

As ordinary soldiers, their actual identity is that of ordinary low-level civilians in the Republic of Rome. Although the living conditions far exceeded those of the unfree slaves, they still had to work hard or sell themselves in the army to obtain some basic supplies. At this time, I didn't expect to eat such a variety of delicious meals after coming to Napoles on duty. You know, this level of enjoyment is simply not possible in their class.

Therefore, they still have the slightest intention of patrolling around, for fear that they will be robbed of food and wine because they are not careful. While gobbling up, they did not forget to praise the operators of the port of Napolus, and at the same time complained about their general's stinginess and slamming the door.

When the head of the guard in charge of the security of the dock saw this, he couldn't help but lash out angrily and rebuked: "What's the matter with you guys? Lao Tzu spent a lot of money to invite you here, did he let you have a bonfire? Don't let me patrol everywhere yet. ”

Several of the leaders of the Varilius army were also enjoying the delicacies at this time, and they felt very embarrassed to be reprimanded by the strong man pointing at his nose like this. In front of everyone, they didn't want to lose face in front of their subordinates, so they went back without courtesy.

"Are you embarrassed to take a bite of Lao Tzu? If it weren't for the mercy of our General Varilius who had come here to help you defend the port, you would still want to command our noble army of Roma. ”

The leader of the strong man was already a little anxious at this time. Seeing that the guards were so slack, he was afraid that something would happen to the dock concentration camp? But he understood that now was not the time to settle accounts with them, and relented.

"My boss has a very good relationship with General Varilius, and I don't want to cause a misunderstanding between them because of this kind of thing. So I'm not going to report it, but you might as well go and patrol the camp in a group. If something happens, who will take care of it? ”

Seeing that the other party's attitude was relaxed, the generals of the Roman army gave them the steps down, and it was not good to continue to make trouble unreasonably. With a raised hand, he casually commanded a few centurions and asked them to take a few teams and go with the leader of the guard.

The leader of the strong men had no choice but to give up, after all, they had heavy troops in their hands, and they didn't dare to really tear their faces no matter what they did. However, as soon as he left, he found that his restlessness just now was definitely not groundless.
