PS: Ask for a monthly pass! Happy Saturday!

Behind him, there is also a small tail poked. Princess Wen Lita wore a hood on her head and dressed like a retinue, but this vulgar attire could not hide the princess's natural beauty, and she looked like a handsome young man in a noble family. She whispered, "Big brother, what are you doing here?" ”

Kirk said angrily: "Step on the idea!" Robbery! ”

Princess Wen Lita exclaimed, "Are you going to save that stupid big Roman?" For what? It's the heart of Rome! ”

Kirk smiled: "That's my style, I'm adventurous!" If you are afraid, take a boat back to Numidia. Spartacus is the safest by its side. ”

After he finished scaring Princess Lori, he looked down and was startled. It turned out that Princess Wen Lita's beautiful eyes were already full of little stars, twinkling and shining.

Princess Wenlita cheered and pounced on Kirk, holding Kirk's neck without a princess image, and her two slender legs were still hooked around Kirk's waist, the sweet and seductive defenseless posture almost made Kirk feel uncomfortable: "Hooray!" Such a fun thing, how can you not call me! I'm definitely not going back to stuffy jar Spartacus! He will not know anything but to fight! ”

Kirk looked at Princess Wen Lita's round cherry lips and Qiong nose speechlessly: "Then what about your return to the country?" ”

Princess Wen Lita tilted her head and thought for a while: "Isn't there still you and Spartacus!" ”

Kirk was even more speechless, comparing Cleopatra, who had died for Egypt, and finally found the huge gap between the princess and the hopelessness of recovering the country. If it weren't for the help of himself and Spartacus. I'm afraid that when this princess reaches the age of 80, she still can't see any hope of recovering the country.

Princess Wen Lita and Cleopatra Cleopatra, both of whom are noble and noble daughters from the royal family, are beautiful and charming stunners, but in terms of work attitude and life attitude, the gap cannot be calculated.

Kirk wordlessly scratched the princess's little Joan's nose: "Hurry down." You are now my little servant, how can you hang on your master and act as a toy monkey? ”

Princess Wen Lita smiled slyly like a little fox and kissed Kirk directly on the mouth. Kirk was shocked, thanks to Wang Han for not coming with him, otherwise the vinegar jar would have turned over again.

But Princess Winrita's small mouth and tongue are so delicious. Kirk also tastes with relish.

"What are you doing? Disgusting! A familiar voice rang out.

Kirk was startled. At first glance, it turned out to be Octavian.

Octavian has obviously changed his disguise, but the aristocratic aura on this boy's body can be smelled from a distance of 100 meters.

"Can you be a little more restrained? It's good to be on the streets of Rome, so let's just say that handsome little guys have been popular in Rome lately. You can't be so morally degraded???" Octavian generally lectured Kirk in a serious manner.

Kirk is funny. Q: "What are you doing here?" ”

Octavian: "What are you here for?" What am I going to do? ”

Kirk laughed. The future founding emperor of the empire is going to rob the court and save the prisoners. Where does this begin?

But looking at Octavian's resolute eyes, Kirk knew he wasn't joking. Octavian has been a stubborn character since he was a child, as long as it is something he believes in, absolutely nine cows will not be able to pull it back.

"What's the plan?" Kirk asked.

"I've already made contact with a group of retired veterans from the 13th Legion, and tomorrow, Judgment Day, everyone will be here with weapons in tow. Once the verdict is not in Pulo's, we are ready to rob the law field! "Octavian was categorical.

Kirk's heart was moved: "If you do this, even Caesar can't shelter you!" It's too obvious. Why should you get involved? ”

Octavian smiled: "You don't have to persuade me. However, after Pulo escaped, he needed to find a place to escape. Do you have a suitable shelter? ”

Kirk looked at Octavian's eyes, and said in his heart that this kid still knows a lot of things, and asked, "What do you know?" ”

Octavian smiled: "Although you have been on the expedition with Caesar for a year, I have always paid attention to your affairs. When you enter Egypt, you are keenly aware of the value of Cleopatra and protect her. Caesar made a mistake here, and actually wanted to make Jagorda Cleopatra, and you were the first to get there, robbed Cleopatra's favor, and gained great power in Egypt! ”

Kirk always thought that Octavian was still the same as he was a child, but he didn't expect that this guy had grown into such a calm and terrifying young leader in two years.

If you look at him from the eyes of that young man, I am afraid that he will suffer a big loss in the hands of this young overlord who dominates the Mediterranean Sea and establishes a thousand-year-old empire.

Octavian's eyes floated over, and he smiled slightly: "Don't be nervous, I know that you are also planning the layout, and I am also planning the layout, as long as we stand together, we will definitely be able to create a new era." As for the rest of the matter, let's talk about it according to the situation at that time! ”

Kirk was shocked that a young man with no roots had such ambitions and ambitions, ready to usher in a new era. The meaning of his later words is that he does not exclude the situation of standing side by side with Kirk. After all, Kirk has gone to the front.

If the main quest wasn't to support this ambitious kid to become the emperor of the empire, Kirk really had the urge to pull out his weapon and kill him here now. Although Caesar is powerful, he is already a lion after all, and he has no other heirs, and once he is assassinated, Rome will fall into civil strife.

In that case, he may be able to use Princess Winrita and Cleopatra Cleopatra to build a Mediterranean empire of his own!

But of course, these are just delusions, and the name of this world is "Rome"!

This doomed Kirk's power to develop only within the reach of the Roman Empire. To eradicate the Roman Empire, it can only be a grasshopper shaking a tree.

Fortunately, Kirk's idea was to establish his own power on an equal footing with Rome, which was no problem before Octavian matured.

Kirk and Octavian's eyes collided, and sparks flowed!

Who is the lord of ups and downs? To become the future hegemon of the Mediterranean, it also depends on the favor of God and my own strategy.

The next day, the scene of Puluo's public trial was indeed crowded.

Kirk arrived early with his team. Sheva occupies a high sniper position and is responsible for clearing the executioners and covering the retreat of the team. Wang Han was in charge of intelligence reconnaissance and illusion cover. Chubby is responsible for using his speed to save Pulo. Kirk was responsible for holding off his pursuers.

Kirk saw a number of powerful men with weapons in their arms, staring at the judgment seat with blazing eyes. These were apparently veterans of the 13 Legion that Octavian had found.

Pulo began to be put on trial, and after the sheriff announced that he was guilty of murder in the street, the audience threw leaves and stones at Pulo.

The male lion, Plo, bowed his head, was listlessly put on trial. He confessed his guilt in full. Looks like it's up to death.

Kirk sighed in his heart. The prodigal son in this merry array would actually fall on a slave girl and never get up again. If it weren't for his sweetheart taking a fancy to someone else, he would have given up on himself. How did you get to where you are today?

The judge announced that Pulo was sentenced to death!

Octavian and the veterans of the 13th Legion are about to come forward to kill and rob prisoners in the streets!

This kid is so daring!

But Kirk had a deep talk with Octavian once. A whole new understanding of Octavian has been obtained. One such careerist. It is impossible to save a retired soldier for the sake of the so-called teacher-student friendship, risking triggering the law and losing his head. He had deep political aims. It is necessary to desperately curry favor with the retired veterans led by the 13 Corps. These veterans. Many of them became senators, tribunes, generals, and even retired soldiers, who, because of their great wealth and glorious status, became the backbone of Rome.

Octavian dared to rob the court for the sake of a retired soldier!

After this news came out, it was very good for Octavian's position in the hearts of retired veterans. Even if Octavian failed and was caught, he was Caesar's only heir, would the magistrate really dare to kill him?

Two years in prison? That's even better! Octavian could become the spokesman for retired soldiers.

A 15-year-old boy has such a city!

Kirk cleared out distractions and walked slowly to the center.

Finally, an unexpected variable emerged.

Warrenos appeared on the judgment bench and demanded the ancient "gladiatorial sanctions" against Plo!

Criminals who have committed the most heinous crimes can apply for gladiatorial sanctions and become gladiators. If you kill everyone in a gladiatorial fight, you are innocent. If someone is killed, he is guilty.

This primitive and barbaric way of judging happened to be the most popular way for the Romans.

That's the gladiatorial fight of the Colosseum!

Kirk stepped forward quickly and stopped Octavian's rescue attempt.

Octavian was puzzled, "Why don't we rescue Plo now?" ”

Kirk said: "If you can do it in a legal way, why do you want to kill officials on the street and rebel to save people?" We work gladiatorial fighting. ”

Octavian nodded: "Indeed, if you talk about heads-up, there are not many people in Rome who can beat Plo. But I'm worried about Pulo's physical condition and sense of survival. ”

Kirk nodded.

At this point, Plo was escorted to a gladiatorial arena where he began a bloody battle with the professional gladiators.

When one-on-one, he was able to rely on his original martial arts foundation to fight the gladiators on their backs, but soon the enemy adopted the shameless method of besieging with many people. The judge didn't care.

Watch Plo in the crowd, being wantonly bullied, lying on the ground like a dog. All the veterans of the 13 Legion are furious!

Especially when Plo was outnumbered, he was still raising his arms and shouting: "13 Legion!" ”

He was cut down by a sword from the gladiator behind him, and he was about to die in the hands of the young man!

Octavian couldn't hold it anymore, and the veterans of the 13th Legion pulled out their weapons one after another, and a bloody battle was about to break out!

Who knows, the first person to jump off the gladiatorial arena at this time was actually Warren North, who was already a senator!

Brotherly love!

Whether you are in a high position or down, it is difficult to give up the brotherly love!

Warren North wanted to exempt Plo from the death penalty through a fair one-on-one gladiatorial fight, but he didn't expect that the judge would insist on Plo's death!

He couldn't hold back the anger in his heart anymore!

Looking at the bloody comrades who fought side by side with him, born and died, tossing and turning in the siege of dozens of people, and still talking about the glory of the 13th Legion, those veterans who had fought in Gaul for 8 years could no longer hold back!

Under the leadership of Kirk and Octavian. They all rolled into the gladiatorial arena and cut down the gladiators who had been instructed to the ground one after another, and rescued Pulo!

But apparently, doing so quickly set off the alarm. The Roman magistrate sent a thousand-strong army in charge of policing, surrounded them, and finally escorted them to the supreme ruler Caesar.

Caesar walked up to Warrenos and reprimanded him for breaking the law and rescuing the criminals privately. He walked up to Pulo and accused him of depravity. Killing people in the street.

But to everyone's surprise. After scolding the street in a rage, Caesar called the eager sheriff, slapped him hard, and ordered him to get out!

Meantime. He pardoned Plo for murder and Volonos, Kirk, and Octavian for saving people.

It's a huge contrast. Leave everyone scratching their heads.

Caesar pondered for a moment. "I wanted to announce this important decree later, but I was saddened to see what happened to Pulo, a retired soldier of the 13th Regiment who had been fighting with me for eight years. Our soldiers. For the good of the country and the glory of Rome, he fought hard in Gaul for 8 years, but after retiring, he could only get a few hundred ores in pension. They have no skills, no connections, no other than killing, and many are suffering from serious injuries. What other way can these veterans survive than to become killers and thugs and sell their souls without dignity? ”

The people below, especially the veterans who had been discharged from the army, burst into tears, as if they had seen the gilded years of following Caesar on the battlefield. As Caesar's status grew, so did the chances of seeing Caesar.

But, Caesar is Caesar after all!

With the help of the example of this fall, he proclaimed a decree that would be upheld by all discharged and serving soldiers!

Caesar said slowly: "Considering that the land on our frontier is all fought down by our soldiers with their lives and blood, one knife and one shot!" These precious and fertile lands deserve your share, you say! Right? ”

The retired underground veteran shouted with tears in his eyes: "Yes! ”

Caesar smiled and yelled at the soldiers behind him, "You guys who have served, listen, no matter how much credit you make, you will retire sooner or later, right?" ”

The soldiers shouted: "Yes, Caesar! ”

Caesar announced to everyone: "Starting today, all veterans who have retired from the army will receive 10 acres of high-quality land from other provinces as a pension." For veterans with combat wounds, an additional 5 acres will be added. Soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country, their families get 20 acres of high-quality land! The officer's pension is increased according to the rank! This is my promise to you, the ruler of Rome, Caesar, to you, all officers and soldiers! ”

All the officers and soldiers turned red with excitement and shouted: "Yes! Caesar! ”

Kirk was furious, and Caesar used Plo's example to announce such an edict, fearing that his control and prestige in the army would reach a new height. After the worries were settled, the Roman army would have rallied more around Caesar.

For Kirk, who was determined to build a great North African empire across the sea from Rome, the high morale of the Roman legions and the temporary indifference of Caesar's personal prestige were not good things.

But that's how a country's fortunes are. It's not one or two people who can be changed with genius and wisdom. Caesar occupies the right time and place, and coupled with his superior military and political ability, he is afraid that he will still be invincible for a long time.

However, Kirk also paid attention to the investigation through various channels that under the calm of the apparent rule of Caesar in the city of Rome, there were undercurrents surging???

The Senate, the republicans, and the aristocracy are all secretly conspiring???

Pompey's remnants, disgruntled aristocrats, and careerists are all spying on Caesar's back???

They are waiting for their moment???

Kirk walked out of Caesar's office palace and smiled wryly at the noon sun overhead. Caesar shook hands with him and said goodbye with a meaningful smile on his lips, telling Kirk that he was ready to attack North Africa. Moreover, Caesar, through the omnipresent Roman spies, already knew that Kirk was inextricably linked to the two major rebellious forces in North Africa, the Spartacus Legion of Carthage and the Egypt of Cleopatra.

Kirk believed that behind him, he must be followed by Roman spies, watching at all times.

This is the counterattack of the space force!

For those who are trying to drastically change the plot, the spatial force is like the trajectory of history, with the ability to automatically correct deviations. Kirk tried to turn this Roman realm into his home base, digging deep and reaping the benefits of equipment, attributes, tasks, and skills. But how easy is that said?

Caesar, the conqueror of Rome, will not let him go by the first!

And then there's Antony and Octavian, Rome's elite and future rulers who would see Kirk as a thorn in the side.

Kirk suddenly felt that it might be an unwise move for him to return to Rome.

The son of a daughter, who can't sit down, since there are two strong armies of Cleopatra and Spartacus, why wait in Rome?

Judging from Octavian's performance, he is becoming more and more politically and mentally mature, and his skills are becoming more and more ruthless. This desperate rescue directly made Plo and Volonos die for him and become his loyal subordinates.

Such a wolf cub still needs Kirk's support?

Now that he has made up his mind, Kirk notified Wang Han and others in the team channel to exchange all the rewards that can be exchanged in Rome, no matter how far the mission is done and how much it can be exchanged, all of them will be cleared, resources will be recovered, and Rome will be left!

It's not safe here.

Judging from Wang Han's observations, the Roman military port was importing Egyptian grain on a large scale, and the main army corps was being mobilized from various theaters, especially the cavalry corps, which was rapidly assembling. By this time, winter had passed, and Kirk still underestimated the might of the Roman Republic and the efficiency of its war machine. Despite the recent end of the civil war, the Romans have re-aimed their fierce blades at the African continent!

The shock that Spartacus gave them was too great! (To be continued......)
