The sky is clear and clear.

The air is exceptionally fresh, and there are few people on the main commercial streets of the city of Rome, which is not at all like the bustling Yanjing should be; On the most famous Douro Road, a shopkeeper is sitting listlessly on the threshold of the shop, staring at the street with few people in a daze.

As long as the conditions are better, they all go to the Roman gladiatorial arena to watch today's gladiatorial fights, and only those with low status or difficult life continue to work as usual. But the evil boss just doesn't give a real holiday, he has to open his door, even if there are no customers, you have to stay here.

The sound of neat footsteps reached the ears of the fellows, and when he turned his head, he saw dozens of men hurrying towards the three carriages, which seemed to be fully loaded with goods, and the wheels creaked and made an overwhelming sound. Maybe the guy doesn't dare to say how to say anything else, but the guy is still relatively expert in the loading of a carriage, and when he looks at it, he basically knows whether the goods in the carriage are heavy or not.

The guys are not interested in seeing more, and there is no fun with what goods are shipped to Rome today, and the rich people have gone to watch gladiatorial fights; Goods that require a few dozen escorts may be worth a little money, but that's it, it's not your own anyway; Still, the dozens of men looked strong, perhaps similar to the slave gladiators in the gladiatorial arena.

If Quintas, the commander of the Royal Praetorian Guard, was here, he would have noticed that the situation was very bad; The person walking in front of the convoy was familiar to Quintas, who was Hans, the current captain of the First Brigade of the First Legion of the Empire!

If you look at the city from above, you can easily see a huge circular building, and all the buildings, including the royal palace, are eclipsed in front of this building, which is the world-famous Roman gladiatorial arena! Nearly 50,000 people have now gathered here to watch today's gladiatorial fight, and Emperor Camerdos has arrived at the gladiatorial arena with his sister Lucilla and nephew Luces.

With the huge Roman gladiatorial arena as the center, some convoys appeared one after another on the streets in the distance, and each convoy was basically dozens of people up and down; From above the Colosseum, hundreds of convoys converge on the Colosseum from all directions. If you zoom in on the whole city, you can see that there are also a large number of convoys in the inns near the west entrance of the city of Rome.

Maximus sat on a stone bench and watched the excited ordinary Romans outside the iron fence watching from outside the cordon set up by the city guards, and he did not like this feeling very much; Wang Jun sat on the sidelines, looking playfully at a boy who was walking towards the iron fence. Because the matter on Osya's side was resolved unusually smoothly, Wang Jun and Maximus rushed back to Rome a day early, and this behavior also made Pasimon not regret his decision, and his trust in Wang Jun and the two greatly increased.

The blonde boy walked to the iron fence, stared at Maximus for a moment, and beckoned to Maximus, revealing a hint of superiority; Maximus, perhaps remembering his dead son, didn't care, smiled and got up and walked over.

"You're a gladiator called the Spaniards?" The blonde boy asked Maximus softly.

"Yes."

"Everyone says you're a giant, and you can crush an adult's head with one hand." The blonde boy seemed to be a little confused, and the gossip was harmful.

"My lord? No. Maximus smiled and stretched out his palm to gesture at the blonde boy, "Kid." ”

"Luce? Full name let me guess, Lucés Willes? Wang Jun smiled and leaned over, looked at the blonde boy and said.

Both Maximus and Lucés were taken aback; Maximus is because of the name, and the boy is because of how Wang Jun knew himself.

"You know me?" The boy was very suspicious, and the man with black hair and black eyes in front of him did not know him.

"I said I guessed, do you believe it?" Wang Jun squeezed his eyes at the boy.

"Liar, who believes it!" The boy's curiosity was high, but he was still very stubborn, obviously very dissatisfied with Wang Jun's answer.

"I'm guessing you'll run down after your uncle to see us when we're victorious." Wang Jun laughed.

"You lie, it's impossible!" The boy and Wang Jun riveted.

"Master Lucs, it's time for us to go." A man who looked like a squire approached the boy and whispered.

"Spaniard, I like you, I'll cheer you on." The boy ignored Wang Jun and watched Maximus turn around and leave.

"Hey! Blonde handsome guy, there's a kind of time I'll not see you later. Wang Jun said another sentence at the boy's back, and the angry boy almost hit his foot.

Because of the allegiance of the First Legion, everything went according to plan, so Maximus did not hide himself in the shadows as soon as Luces was identified as in the original play; Maximus looked at Wang Jun speechlessly, what else did he not know? The boy didn't understand what Wang Jun had just said, but Maximus understood it, and he didn't want the boy to run into the gladiatorial arena when the plan was launched; Well, Wang Jun's heart is good, and the old emperor Marcus is really good at choosing people.

The gladiatorial arena screamed continuously, and the roar of the lions pierced the sky; Wang Jun raised his eyebrows, it is estimated that the appetizer of the war between man and beast will be staged in the gladiatorial arena, so you can't change it to something else, it's too uncreative, at least arrange some exotic beauties to dance a thousand hula dances!

Wang Jun was in a good mood, and while wearing equipment, he despised the management level of this gladiatorial arena. Wang Jun chose two covered helmets, threw one for Maximus, and wore one himself; The gladiators under the Pasimon command all lined up silently to receive their weapons, helmets could be chosen by themselves, and other equipment was provided uniformly, such as spears, convex shields, and half-body chain mail. Maximus and Wang Jun had another choice, and Pasimon gave them back the Legion armor they had found to be wearing; Whether it was the angle of fit and what was going to happen today, Maximus and Wang Jun put on the armor of the army properly.

"When the Emperor has entered, raise your weapons and salute, and then greet him in unison" The stout gladiatorial arena keeper was loudly reminding in the passage, lest these gladiators from the countryside do not know the rules.

"In the face of the emperor, you can't turn your back to him...... Go ahead! Fight for your honor! The administrator was loudly encouraging.

"Cut! Let people go to death and salute the emperor. "Wang Jun is not interested.

"Hey!" The gladiators raised their guns and roared in unison, and then formed two columns and walked up the steps leading to the arena.

Everyone entered the gladiatorial arena, and the cheers of the landslide and tsunami immediately made them a little confused; And looking around at the incomparably huge gladiatorial arena, the friends around Wang Jun were all stunned, even Maximus was no exception, this scene was too shocking!

Wang Jun, who has experienced modern large-scale sports events and live events of various celebrity concerts, is very calm, just doubting a question, without a loudspeaker, no speaker, no giant display, what can these audiences hear? What do you see?

The gongs and drums were noisy, the trumpets sounded in unison, and the emperor took his sister and nephew Shi Shiran to the royal grandstand under the escort of a small number of Janissaries; As Kamerdos waved to the audience, tens of thousands of people cheered in unison.

"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! ”

The eyes of a gladiator in the center of the arena suddenly turned to the stands where Camerdos was, especially Maximus, whose cold eyes in his chestnut pupils were directly locked on Camerdos.

Wang Jun felt a little tragic, your uncle! I am a little short-sighted, and now I am separated by dozens of meters, and I can't see the faces of people in the stands at all, and it is good to be able to distinguish men and women from their body shapes. At this time, Wang Jun was even more sure that the Roman citizens sitting on the second floor in the audience were purely here to make soy sauce, what could they see from such a distance? It's almost as good as having fun!

The boss of the gladiatorial arena dragged his fat body and put on a blonde wig and began to chatter about the opening line.

The more than 20 gladiators in the venue did not bother to say anything, they were listening attentively to Maximus's arrangement.

Maybe it's because everyone is a gladiator under Passimon, or maybe it's because Maximus is recognized by everyone as the strongest, when Maximus said: "Listen, everyone! Later, a group of two-horse chariots will be drawn from several large passages around the meeting, and the opponents will be African gladiators, with archers on board and sharp swords on the rims of the chariots. After that, everyone began to listen to him.

Why should you listen to him?

It was enough for him to know what came out of a few holes!

The first purpose of gladiatorial combat is to protect one's own life, and since Maximus knows the details of his opponent, listening to him must have the best chance of survival.

Of course, this information was told to Maximus by Wang Jun, so that he could effectively control these gladiators and avoid being like in the original plot, because Maximus did not understand the opponent and caused everyone to be a little flustered. In addition, some gladiators didn't seem to be willing to listen to him completely, at least at the beginning, Hercules and the other five gladiators fought separately and did not join the battle formation, but as a result, four of them hung up at the beginning, and Hoge also received an arrow in the calf, and was almost not separated by the carriage.

"Who has fought here?" Maximus continued.

"I, in Pandubana, served with you." A gladiator answered.

"Your sister! I actually forgot about this stubble! "There were people among the gladiators who knew Maximus, the Great Khan of the Royal Army; There was originally such a plot in the movie, but Wang Jun didn't remember it. How dangerous this is! Because of his own joining, the plot has begun to change, who knows if this buddy will go to snitch? Fortunately, everyone is on the field now, which means that this gladiator did not go to the informant; Wang Jun despised himself with hatred in his heart, and he didn't find any loopholes.

"......" is of course different from the original play, Maximus does not say those general things such as boosting morale and uniting the players, but directly explains the battle formation and combat methods to deal with.

Six two-horse chariots galloped out of the two gaping doorways, with terrifying momentum; Although the number of infantry has nearly doubled, the chariot is still at a significant disadvantage, and tens of thousands of onlookers in the stands are howling and cheering as if they have been beaten with chicken blood;

Seeing that the situation was as Maximus said, more than 20 gladiators immediately obeyed Maximus's command, and quickly formed a tight oval surname shield array, with spears soaring into the sky and shields tightly clasped; Seeing that there was no chance to take advantage of it, the six vehicles had to abandon the planned direct charge and start a circle around the field, and maintaining speed was an essential element of vehicle tactics.

Maximus and Wang Jun stood back to back in the center of the shield array, observing their opponents' movements. The audience booed the African gladiators in gold armor, who entered the enemy unprepared, and did not make any achievements!

After the audience booed, the opponent finally couldn't hold back, and the first thing he launched was a bow and arrow attack. But there are only 12 of them, only 6 of them can shoot bows and arrows, and the remaining 6 need to control war horses; And the sparse bows and arrows were not enough to see in front of Maximus's huddled shield, and there was nothing to be gained except for adding one or two ornaments to their shields.
