Roman Slave Owner

Chapter 365: procrastination

"I think you have also heard the news. I know why I led 12 legions and more than 20,000 cavalry here. My purpose is to expedition to Germany. Since they have come to Gaul, I am very happy to fight with them in Gaul. battle."

Li Wei said, "If you are willing to stay and resist them, I think we will become the best allies."

"I'm sorry, I don't have an alliance mission with you, but I will relay your words to our leader."

Di Vigo said.

Li Wei nodded, "My conditions will not change. It is impossible to pass Shanbei Gaolu, so don't persuade you."

He still has some memories of history. He remembers that after other Gaul tribes allowed the Helvetians to pass, the Helvetians looted everywhere along the way, forcing the tribes who had good intentions with them to have to Go to war with them, so this hole must not be opened.

"I see, I will reply to our leader."

Di Weiguo looked helpless.

Li Wei stayed for a while, but Di Weiguo finally left.

Levi pondered for a while, and then the Helvesians were about to go to the Segwanis and Aiduyi.

They will most likely agree, and then there will be war.

As the ally of the Romans, the Aiduyi people would probably send someone to ask for help.

As their ally, of course they have the obligation to send troops to aid.

But Li Wei didn't plan to help them, so he decided to hide from them.

How should I hide from them?

Li Wei soon had an idea, that is to go to the province of Illyria.

As the governor of the three provinces, how can he compare favorably with each other, of course, he has to visit the provinces of Illyria. This is absolutely indispensable.

So not long after, he took the guards and the cavalry of the three brigades to Illyria, and at the same time sent people to persuade the Roman ally Aiduyi not to let them pass.

However, the development of the matter was completely beyond his expectation. Not only the Helvesi planned to move westward, but even the Ségwanis planned to move westward.

There are ten most powerful tribes in Gaul, and there are nearly a hundred small tribes. Seguni is one of them. They live near the middle reaches of the Rhine.

The love between the Aiduyi and the two races was very good, so they agreed to pass.

But when they passed, they looted food and various materials everywhere, which aroused the anger of the Aiduyi people.

As the most powerful tribe in central Gaul, the Aiduyi people naturally have their arrogance, so they fought against these enemies and sent people to Li Wei for help.

But when they came to Ravenna, Li Wei had left Shannan Gaul a month ago to visit Illyria.

"Do you know where he is going to patrol?"

The emissary of the Gauls asked anxiously.

Facing the offensive of the two major tribes of Gaul and other small tribes, the pressure of the Eduis was actually great, and the support of the Romans was urgently needed.

"The Governor said that he intends to observe the people’s sentiments and conduct a secret visit to the local officials, so he did not set a schedule. However, he said that he would go to the Danube valley in the Alps in a month to investigate and see if he could attack the Germans from there. Illyria inquire."

Lycias said very skillfully, he was completely familiar with how to deal with these messengers.

"Alps?"

The messenger was taken aback. If he entered the Alps, it would be difficult to find. He must find Li Wei as soon as possible.

So he and a few entourage rushed to Illyria on their war horses, and after all kinds of inquiries, after all the hard work, they finally found Li Wei.

"Dear Governor, you know the current situation. The Ségwanis, Helvesians and more than a dozen tribes dispatched hundreds of thousands of troops to attack us. I hope that the Governor can send troops to rescue us."

A Celtic man with long red hair and looking extremely fat said excitedly.

Now he was so excited that he was about to cry, and finally found Li Wei, and he would be over if he couldn't find his love for Duyi.

Li Wei glanced at him lightly. This big man was named Dunolex, the younger brother of the leader of the Aiduyi.

He was a true ambition, with the ambition to dominate Gaul, he was extremely unfriendly to the Romans, and married the daughter of the chief of Helvesia.

In order to win over the Helvesians, it was he who insisted on letting the Helvesians pass through the territories of the Aiduyis. He didn't expect that something went wrong and he eagerly asked for help.

"I remember reminding you that it's best not to let them pass through your territory, or something big will happen."

Li Wei said.

"Yes, we are all to blame. We didn't listen carefully to the advice of the governor. We are willing to confess to punishment, but we also ask the governor to send troops to rescue us."

Dunoleks said, acting as if he was free to play and punish him.

Li Wei snorted, what would you do to save you? Did you save you and let you make the Romans?

Although the current Eduis are allies of the Romans, their leaders are also very friendly to Rome.

But the Eduis are full of ambitions to unify Gaul, which the Romans absolutely cannot tolerate.

In the eyes of the Gauls, whether they are Romans or Germans, they are actually the same. They are all foreign invaders.

The most important thing is that in a few years, the Aiduyi will rebel against the Romans with almost all the Gauls. This is something that Levi cannot accept.

"I don't think the Romans should be involved in this war. It's all because you didn't listen to me."

Li Wei said.

"But we are allies of the Romans, we have been attacked, and you Romans have an obligation to send troops to assist."

Dunoleks was a little anxious, and said quickly.

"It's not impossible for us to send troops, but our army is used to attack the Germans, not the Gauls, so you need to pay all the costs of this war."

Li Wei said.

"How many?"

Dunoleks asked.

"Enough for 12 legions and 26,000 cavalry to eat for two months, 2,000 complete sets of weapons and armor for replacement, 20,000 arrows, 5,000 javelins, and 2 million dinars for military expenses. I think this is the point. The cost is not expensive, right."

Li Wei said with a smile.

In the previous life, Caesar helped the Aiduis to resist the attacks of other Gaul tribes, but the Aiduis were bewitched by Dunoleks and were unwilling to give them any food.

Of course, Li Wei can't repeat the same mistakes. He wants us to send troops and pay the price first.

But he didn't want to push the Aiduy to the side of the Helvesians, so the conditions were very low.

The most important thing is that Li Wei hopes that the three tribes can have a good time, so he wants to delay as much as possible.

Dunorex breathed a sigh of relief. He thought it would be a lot, something that the Aiduyi could bear, although it might hurt the bones.

"This is no problem, when will you send troops."

Dunoleks asked.

"When you gather the supplies and hand them to us, we will dispatch troops."

Li Wei said.

"Can you hand it in afterwards, you know we are at a critical juncture now, and we can't get these things at all."

Dunoleks said.

During the war, no matter how many materials were not enough, what's more, Li Wei actually asked for a lot.

Just say that armor weapons are not enough to arm themselves, how can they be drawn to supply Li Wei.

"Are you kidding me? I don't think I want much."

Li Wei's face changed immediately, "If anyone knows that this thing can be aided by 12 legions and 26,000 cavalry, many people would be happy to pay the money."

"Your Excellency, please trust our credibility."

Dunoleks said.

Li Wei laughed, Gauls have credibility?

Are you kidding me? Not to mention the rebellion at every turn, the previous life Caesar sent troops to help you deal with the enemy, but you were unwilling to give you food for a few days. The culprit seems to be the guy in front of you.

"My conditions are here. You can go back and discuss with your brother. I am going to the Alps next. I hope you can send me what I want as soon as possible."

Li Wei said.

"Your Excellency, how much time has passed this time and time, plus the collection of supplies, we will die a lot of people."

Dunoleks said eagerly.

Li Wei waved his hand and motioned him not to speak.

"I understand your difficulties. As an ally, I allow you to retreat to Shanbei Gaolu to avoid the enemy. In addition, I hope to mediate for you. Germanic talents are our common enemy, and we should not engage in internal friction."

Dunolex begged bitterly, but Li Wei refused to agree in any case. Finally, Dunolex smiled bitterly and said, "I will pass on your words to my brother."

After seeing Dunoleks leave, Li Wei snorted coldly.

It is really uncomfortable to cooperate with a group of people who know that they will rebel. I hope they can forge more hatred between them.

More than three months have passed, and it seems that it is impossible for me to expedition to Germany this year.

***

There are crowds of people in the Roman Forum, and Katilin is giving a speech.

"Dear citizens of Rome, a very terrible thing happened in Rome more than a month ago. Several people came to assassinate me. They wanted to make my death an accident, so they did not kill me directly. Die me. Fortunately, I was blessed by Jupiter. My friend's guard happened to be nearby. They saved me in time and caught those who tried to assassinate me."

"I wanted to say the name of my friend and thank him, because he is a man of high character, kindness, charity, courage and sincerity, and all the good qualities in the world cannot be overstated on him. But when I ask After knowing the messenger behind the scenes, my friend asked me not to say his name. Not only him, but even I fled Rome in fright, and did not dare to return to Rome for more than a month."

"Even to this day, I dare not say his name, not only because I am afraid of death, I am also afraid of bringing disaster to Rome."

After listening to Katilin, the Roman citizens talked a lot.

Who is it that even Katilin dare not name? And it will bring disaster to Rome.

You know, Katilin was a former justice, and he also served as Governor of Africa.

There were only two or three people in Rome with this kind of strength, and Li Wei's name soon came to their minds.

There are many strong people in Rome, but only Li Wei is capable of bringing disasters to Rome.

When Sidigus sued Levi, the result directly triggered the Spartacus riots. This is what happened in the first two years, and they still have fresh memories.

Cicero, Getta and others looked at him with a gloomy expression. They didn't expect Cattilin to return to Rome, and once they returned to Rome, they would speak out.

"But today I plucked up the courage to return to Rome, because I didn’t want to die. I knew that if I just avoided, I would be killed by them. I didn’t dare to report the person who couldn’t name him, but I dared to report him. Subordinates. And I want to compete for the financial officer. I think only the identity of the veteran can save me from assassination. I sincerely hope that you can help me. Your support is saving an innocent life."

Katilin said loudly.

Seeing this, some of the surrounding elders clapped.

Another elder said: "Katilin, well said. Don't be afraid, we support you."

"Thank you."

Katilin said with a smile.

Driven by some people, the applause here became more and more intense.

The smile on Katilin's face grew stronger, although Li Wei drove him out of the Senate.

But this assassination gave him a chance, which made him win the support of Krasu and other dignitaries.

With their support, returning to the Senate will also be smooth sailing.

After reading Katilin's declaration of return, Cicero and some of the elders came to the Vatican and discussed the matter.

After knowing this, Emilia felt a headache.

Since Li Wei left, she finally decided on many things. Only then did she know how difficult it is to be a leader. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

"Who is he going to report?"

Emilia asked.

"Mackian and Brutim."

Cicero said.

Emilia felt that the intelligence team was going to end, and their two most important leaders had been sued by the enemy.

"Cicero, can you let the fortunetellers control the date of the citizens' assembly?"

Emilia asked.

Once Katilin filed a lawsuit, it is determined to be a capital crime, so a citizens' assembly will be held for trial.

"This can't be done. I have just taken office, and the relationship with them is a bit stale."

Cicero said.

Everyone understands Cicero's difficulties. The relationship between the Holy Church and the Roman Catholic Church is already very tense.

As a representative of the Shengjiao, he can guarantee that the two sects can't afford to conflict and can do no good. This is also the task given to him by Li Wei.

"But I guess that the date is likely to be the days of election day, when all the citizens of Rome will gather in Rome, then our control of the citizens' assembly will be reduced to a minimum."

Cicero said.

"I understand, remember to use "Roma Daily" to say more for them."

Emilia said.

"Ok."

Cicero said.

"Then do we want to..."

Getta made a beheading gesture.

A light flashed in Caesar's eyes. Why did they have to kill Katilin? Is there any secret in this?

"We will talk about this in private, and now we will talk about another thing, that is, the candidate for the Ombudsman."

Emilia coughed and said, "This matter is very important and can even affect the control of the Senate. I hope everyone can treat it with caution. Currently we have three candidates, one is Luculus..."
