Chapter 61: Dawn - Asking for Votes
PS: Ask for a monthly pass! Ask for recommendations and tips!
Cleopatra was also smiling when she heard the news. Naturally, she didn't want Caesar to win. Pompey could at least recognize Egypt's apparent independence, while Caesar wanted to annex Egypt outright.
Her beautiful eyes were gently placed on Kirk, obviously this Cleopatra had taken Kirk as her backbone, and all military and political affairs were arranged by Kirk.
Kirk asked Chubby, "Is there any news from Carthage?" β
Fat smiled and said: "This is the second good news I want to report, news from Africa has come that Spartacus has led the Winrita coalition army, attacked the Sinumedia tribe at night, and captured the leader of the Sinumedia tribe. β
Kirk excitedly punched his thigh: "Good! After this battle, Spartacus unified the Sinumitian tribe, what was the attitude of the East Numidian tribe? β
Wang Han lifted the curtain and said, "The situation over there is not ideal. Seeing the destruction of the western part of the country, the chief of East Numidia became increasingly wary of Princess Winrita, and estimated that Spartacus still had a battle to fight. In addition, he sent news that the army was sufficient, with 50,000 horsemen and commanders, but the military resources, equipment, and armor were insufficient, and we needed to find a way to support them. β
Kirk said angrily: "This is natural, we are smashing the pot and selling iron, and we also want to support Spartacus." β
The more Cleopatra listened, the more frightened she became, how she didn't know that the Hindu had recently risen like a whirlwind in Numidia to become a generation of Carthaginian remnants. The leader is Spartacus, the legendary god of war who has fallen in battle! Under his leadership, Princess Winrita, who was originally in exile, has gathered a large number of loyal Carthaginian remnants and successfully conquered Sinumida, and it seems that it is only a matter of time before Numidia is unified in the east.
Unexpectedly, that Spartacus was actually a generation of martial artists who obeyed the orders of this inconspicuous and world-famous martial artist in front of him!
Cleopatra found that the closer she got to this man, the more she couldn't see through his strength.
But. Savor the aroma of chestnut blossoms that remain between your teeth. Cleopatra sneered, no matter how talented or capable he was, he was destined to serve under my account!
This once heartbroken Cleopatra. I saw the hope of the restoration of Carthage. Ignited the fighting spirit again!
A kingdom that has been dead for a hundred years. This man has a way of resurrecting it, and I, as Cleopatra of Egypt, can't be the protector of Egypt. Dominating the world?
Whether it is Caesar or Pompey, their power has reached the extreme, and all that remains is continuous decline. This man, who was naΓ―ve in that kind of thing, was like the rising sun in the desert, and under the guidance of the sun god Amun, he would surely be able to send himself to the supreme dominance of Egypt.
"What are we going to do here?" Cleopatra said softly.
Kirk smiled: "Don't worry, don't worry, Caesar is not a guy who dies easily, we want him to collide with Pompey again, and completely let him break the heart that swept the world by his own force." Let him calm down and talk to us about the conditions! β
As Kirk expected, although Caesar claimed to have retreated back to Antioch, in fact, Caesar, who did not give up, sent Antony with four cavalry legions and Lepida with three cavalry legions again that night to attack Pompey stationed in the desert in two ways.
This time the battle was more intense, and Pompey's legions were raided all around, and there was confusion and rout at first, but after Pompey personally dispatched with cavalry reserves, Caesar's legions suddenly appeared in a trace of undue confusion, and many Caesar's cavalry began to kill each other, which eventually led to the defeat of the battle. Antony and Lepida were worthy of a generation of famous generals, and finally managed to withdraw to Caesar's station, but also lost three cavalry legions.
There is no doubt that Pompey's space virus skills have gradually become more and more perfect over time. When Kirk fought Pompey, he didn't yet have the ability to fully apply the virus's spatial abilities to large-scale Legion battles. But the defeat of Caesar's legion this time must have been the result of his great increase in ability.
After several failures, Caesar finally realized what a foolish strategy it had been to make Jacobda Cleopatra in the first place. Jacoda did not have enough influence among the Egyptian people at all, and she could not even summon an Egyptian legion.
And Ptolemy, in the absence of Cleopatra, firmly grasped the military and political power of Egypt, with 20 Egyptian pharaonic legions, so that Pompey's army was strong, and the aggressiveness may not be enough, but there was no problem in defending Egypt.
The war had been going on for more than a month, and it was about to enter winter, and the fighting had to stop. The food shortage in Rome was so severe that it had caused a famine, and the Romans were complaining that Caesar was not able to govern the country. If this continues, even Caesar will not be able to suppress the domestic pressure, and he must negotiate peace with Pompey. Once that happens, the gains of previous victories will be in vain.
Pompey will become the consul who shares power with him, what is Caesar's intention after so many years of hard work?
Caesar was absolutely not reconciled.
At this moment, Kirk met Caesar alone and told him that if he tried to kill Cleopatra again, he would only meet with defeat and Pompey's comeback. The inhabitants of Rome could not afford to wait any longer.
Caesar had no choice but to admit his mistake and respectfully invite Cleopatra back.
Cleopatra walked into the Roman barracks with a blank face. She only asked to bring Kirk as a bodyguard.
Kirk is also satisfied, for a period of time, although he has not eaten this beautiful and bewitching Cleopatra, the two of them are constantly intimate, flirting and scolding, the feelings are gradually heating up, this Cleopatra, a heart has all been in herself.
Imagine the pride of a man in having Cleopatra, which only great men like Caesar, Antony, and Octavian could enjoy.
Behind Caesar stood Jacoda, the angry woman who framed Cleopatra, and the only woman with whom she could compete for the throne of queen.
When Caesar announced that she was going to switch to Cleopatra, she went crazy. But for women who have lost their use value, Caesar is unceremonious, if he is willing to stay, he will stay for the time being, and if he is not willing to see cooperation with Cleopatra, please get out of here.
With a look of rage, she looked at Cleopatra.
Kirk observed, this Jacoda is also a beauty, but compared to Cleopatra's true appearance, it is really the difference between the fireflies and the bright moon.
Cleopatra asked Kirk if he wanted to appear in front of Caesar in his true face, and Kirk replied firmly, no, which mask is the ugliest, you should bring it.
Even so, Kirk saw a glimmer of desire in Caesar's eyes. It seems that even if she is seriously self-ugly, Cleopatra's outstanding figure, extraordinary conversation, good eyes, and dusty temperament all make the old pervert Caesar covet. Especially as the queen of Egypt, marrying her means that she can have the legal right to rule Egypt!
Kirk was secretly vigilant in his heart, it seemed that it was going to rain, and it was time to put away his clothes. My own clothes are still received early in bed.
Moved by Cleopatra's words, Caesar finally agreed to abandon his plans to annex Egypt. In fact, he is now in a state of exhaustion, and it is his greatest wish to be able to deal with Pompey as soon as possible, and to return to Rome. The question of Egypt's final status was thus solved.
After the biggest obstacle to cooperation between the two sides was removed, they finally entered the honeymoon period of rapid cooperation. Under Kirk's guidance, Cleopatra sent all his cronies to various parts of Egypt in advance, mobilized the Egyptian people extensively, collected all kinds of war materials, and broke the morale and organization of the Pharaoh's army.
In less than half a month, Cleopatra already has 10 legions of queens under her name, loyal to her personally.
This force that penetrated deep behind enemy lines was enough to shake the Pharaoh's dominance. Ptolemy finally couldn't hold back, and against Pompey's wishes, he sent all Pharaoh's legions to Thebes, south to support Cleopatra, and began a civil war.
As soon as Ptolemy's Pharaoh's army left, Pompey's army suddenly became alone, and its number plummeted, and Caesar was the best at taking advantage of the fire to rob, and a military order went down and waved his army south!
The third decisive battle between Caesar's legion and Pompey's legion is about to break out!
During the war march, Kirk sneaked into Cleopatra's ride. Recently, the two have often talked on the way, exchanging views on the situation.
Cleopatra stared at Kirk for a moment with beautiful eyes: "Thank you!" β
Kirkchi said, "Why do you want to thank me? β
Cleopatra said: "If it weren't for you, I would have died a long time ago, and I would not have seen the dawn of Egypt's liberation today." β
Kirk shook his head and said, "Egypt is full of disasters, and this is just the beginning. With a neighbor as powerful as Rome on its side, whoever becomes the supreme ruler of Rome will push forward with the plan to annex Egypt. For Egypt has food, and a population, and wealth, and is a real piece of fat. The Romans could not have endured without eating. β
Cleopatra sighed: "I have to take one step at a time, as long as I can drive Ptolemy, the unruly pharaoh, from power, even if I am crushed, I will be bound to protect Egypt!" β
After talking about the most awesome, this Cleopatra is already righteous and awe-inspiring, I don't know if it is a spiritual effect, Kirk seems to see through her bland face, the face of the delicate face dedicated to the country.
It is said that men attract women because of success and wealth, why can't women attract men because of focus and dedication? (To be continued......)
