PS: The title of this chapter is eye-catching, right? Wow ha, it's very bright here, and it doesn't make sense if you don't write it. Kneel and beg to subscribe! Commuter passes and referrals.

Caesar, Antony, Octavian, and Caesar's lieutenant Posca were among themselves in the drawing room, with a huge map of the Apennine Peninsula in front of them. It turned out that Pompey was pursued by Caesar's legions to the shores of Italy. Caesar's fake cat-and-mouse peace letter really provoked contradictions between the aristocracy, the senate and the military generals within Pompey's camp. The senators debated how to respond to Caesar's truce. Eventually, they agreed to a "cessation of hostilities" on the basis of the terms proposed by Caesar.

According to the intelligence, Pompey told the army that the agreement was only a stopgap measure, that it would not surrender to Caesar, and that it would only take time to bring in new men and legions from Greece and Spain.

There are two key issues now, one is how to further divide and disintegrate and deal with Pompey, and the other is how to rule Rome.

Dealing with Pompey, Postka and Antony had a dispute. Posca believed that given the disadvantageous position in front of Pompey, his supporters were dividing and disintegrating, and that nobles were constantly leaving with their armies and returning to Rome. It should be seen what happens. Antony, on the other hand, believed that Pompey had many supporters and a large army, and that dozens of Greek and Spanish legions had recently set out to assemble in Greece by sea and land in preparation for a decisive battle with Caesar there. He should pursue Pompey while he is not ready, and it is best to catch Pompey, so that there will be no future trouble.

The two argued.

Caesar looked at Octavian, who was listening attentively, and asked with interest, "What is your opinion?" ”

Hear Caesar ask himself. With this kind of national event, Octavian couldn't help but be nervous for a while, and thought for a while: "If you fight Pompey now, what are the odds of victory?" ”

Caesar thought for a moment: "Half each." Pompey already has several elite legions around him, and they are evenly matched, and the victory or defeat depends on the on-the-spot command. ”

Octavian asked, "In three months' time, what are the chances of you winning a decisive battle with Pompey?" ”

Caesar said: "Less than thirty percent, my legions have arrived in Rome one after another, but Pompey's legions are still going to Greece in a steady stream. ”

Octavian laughed: "Then how likely do you think it is that a letter will disintegrate Pompey's supporters?" ”

Caesar's eyes lit up: "No." The shakers ran as far as they could. The rest are the die-hard aristocracy and the Senate, who will not support me anyway. ”

Octavian grinned and stopped talking.

Caesar walked around the house and finally made up his mind: "Anthony, I follow your advice. Immediately go down and prepare the army. I will be blessed in the Temple of the Gods after receiving Lord Juno. Leave Rome as soon as possible. Go after Pompey. Postka, you are responsible for devising a pretext for war and drafting a conquest. After I left Rome. Antony, as the supreme governor of Rome, was in charge of ruling the area. ”

Octavian clamored to go with Caesar to fight in Greece, but Caesar refused, because it was one thing to negotiate with the military, and it was another thing to go to the front and risk crossbows. He didn't want Octavian to risk it yet.

Octavian returned home sullen. Kirk was very pleased with his performance today. In military and political affairs, Octavian had already shown a very high level of vision and careful thinking, he just needed constant training and opportunities, and the latter needed time.

An unexpected guy in the living room of Octavian's house turned out to be Plo, who had not been seen for a long time. It turned out that after knowing that Octavian was not Caesar's little lover of the same sex, Attia asked Plo to train his son to make him more manly. Although Kirk was known to the Romans as the enemy, there was no doubt that Plo was the best person to teach martial arts in terms of the systematization and applicability of military techniques.

After Plo met Kirk and the others, they were very affectionate. His current little lover, Elene, was rescued by Kirk from the ox cart and given to him to raise because he had no owner. This guy is simply satisfied with the slave girl Eilene (Eirene) to the extreme, and he can't be pampered. The only problem is that this guy is a drunken and profligate man, and has already cleaned up Caesar's bounty and savings from years of conquest in Rome. This time, I accepted Atiya's invitation, as Octavian's martial arts teacher, also to get back some salary so that I could support my family.

In the afternoon, Plo began to calmly teach Octavian combat techniques. Kirk and others watched strongly.

Kirk calmly watched Plo teach Octavian how to swing his sword and how to hold his shield, and he also learned a lot. To tell the truth, Pulo, who relies on a body of martial arts to eat, is definitely more reasonable in the use of weapons and the seriousness of studying martial arts than Kirk. Without him, the contractor can escape, take medicine, and teleport if he is defeated, but these mortal warriors like Pulo, as long as one accidentally misses, will be hated on the spot, and there will be no second chance.

Kirk finally couldn't help the itching of his hands and came up to practice one-on-one with Plo. As a result, with Kirk not using his skills, he has no chance of winning against Plo. If both players use skill, Kirk has a slight advantage. More than half of this advantage is also due to the equipment on his body.

The afternoon flew by, and Kirk learned a lot of his own shortcomings from Pulo's fighting skills. It is no wonder that those who practice martial arts are willing to make moves with masters, and only by comparing with experts can they know what their shortcomings and weaknesses are.

In the evening, Atia hosts a grand dinner party for Kirk and Plo. Although Caesar has recently become obsessed with Atiya's rival Sevilla, much to the fury of Atiya. But she had a good son, Octavian, and she was proud to be able to recruit such talented subordinates as Kirk and Plo.

After three rounds of drinking, Adia went down, and there was a place to socialize in the evening. Only the Kirk Four, Octavian, and Plo remained. At this time, Pulo, who was on top of alcohol, revealed a shocking news. It turned out that Plo had been hesitant to tell Warrenos about his wife's suspicion of infidelity. Warren North is a tough guy who values honor and tradition, if you tell him the truth. He had no choice but to kill his wife.

Octavian advised: "There are no facts and you must remain silent". He knew Volonos's temper very well, and he knew that he loved his wife deeply, and if he told him the truth, whether he killed or not, he would be very miserable.

Kirk heard Warrennos's annoyance, but he didn't say anything. Chubby asks Kirk: "If you don't tell Warrenos the truth, when you assassinate Caesar in the end, the enemy will use this news to tell him the truth and break him off, so Caesar will ???"

Kirk asked rhetorically, "Are we assisting Caesar or Octavian?" ”

Chubby reacted, covered his mouth and said, "Do you want to ????"

"Of course" Kirk was expressionless: "Caesar is not dead, how to make Octavian rise?" If Caesar doesn't die for a day, Octavian can't come out for a day, the four of us will have to stay in this world for one more day. Do you have to live in this world for the rest of your life? ”

At this time, Warren North, who was the topic of conversation, was in financial difficulties and could only be a businessman's bodyguard. Originally, his money was very good, but because of a flu, more than 40 slaves died, and only a 6-year-old boy remained. His plans to make a fortune were completely bankrupt, and for political reasons, he left the army of dictator Caesar. He wouldn't do anything other than kill people, so he had to be a bodyguard. But then, the businessman, who has a background in the underworld, wants him to kill a man who has failed to pay his debts. Looking at the debtor's terrified expression and the pleading of his wife and children, he chose to resign again. In desperation, Warrenos went to Antony to rejoin Caesar's forces.

However, at this time, Kirk and Plo were given an extremely difficult task by Octavian's mother Atia - to break the situation for Octavian, the future founding emperor of the Roman Empire.

Yes, you heard it right, just let this chick bud.

If you want to talk about this topic, it is really exciting, and if it is placed in the 21st century, it will definitely make the front page headlines of entertainment gossip magazines.

But in Rome at this time, when a boy reached his age, his mother gave him money to go to a brothel to bud and get rid of his virginity, but it was an ordinary thing like a coming-of-age ceremony for a senior high school student. Octavian, the little Zhengtai, is 12 years old this year (time flies, the rebellion took a year, Kirk and they only took a few points in time to pass so long), if they do not bud again, they will be laughed at by the Roman nobles. Besides, Adia had always worried that her son was too pink and masculine enough, and perhaps Octavian would become a man after budding.

The emperor of the future, who was now reluctantly stuffed into Kirk's hands by Attia and ordered Kirk to take him to a brothel.

Xiaopang smiled cheaply, this errand he liked the most, and it was the most quick to do. To say that after he met Puluo, they smelled the same, and they were mixed together all day long, listening to Puluo's eyebrows dancing and talking about the women's scriptures of the Mediterranean world. Otherwise, sneakily and Pulo sneaked out and spent all day drinking, of course, it must be Xiaopang, the big financier, who paid for it. Pulo eats, drinks and has fun with him, and has a very good relationship.

Wang Han, of course, refused to go to carry out this obscene commission. Kirk took Plo, Octavian, Chubby and Sheva's guards, and rushed all the way to the brothel to bud Octavian.

Chubby took Kirk into a secret prostitution brothel with a glimpse of the car, and Kirk's brow furrowed.

Since it was a secret prostitute, it was naturally a place where the Roman authorities did not admit to hiding dirt and dirt, and the houses inside were dark and low, with thatched roofs, and from time to time a large hole was exposed, and under the black stove, a fat rat was not afraid of people, and drilled around. In the rooms separated by wooden boards, there were naked women, shamelessly fighting men in hand-to-hand combat, and they didn't even bother to pull the curtains. A few prostitutes who have no customers, unkempt and glazed eyes.

According to Plo, these were women who had been plundered from newly conquered regions such as Gaul and Spain. The owner bought them as prostitutes and opened the door. (To be continued......)
