Before the First Samone War, Rome was undergoing an important transformation from weak to strong, and then jumping out of the Salt Peninsula; and in the past 40 years from 390 BC to 343 BC, it has been entangled with the northern barbarians of the Gauls. ≤≤Little≤The Gallics defined by the Romans were not only French roosters in later generations, but also Celtics living in Belgium, northern Italy, southern Netherlands, western Switzerland and western Germany. These warlike guys always think about attacking as long as they gather more than a thousand people, as if war is the whole of their lives.

The war that lasted for decades has been burning closer to the city of Rome from the Apennines, as if the gods were furious. The Dianlean Sea had a hurricane that lasted for half a month, and the port near Chilcei was almost destroyed, which caused major problems in Rome's material reserves. Now the soldiers have not had inferior dairy products to eat for a long time. If this continues, their combat effectiveness will probably decline seriously and it will be difficult to deal with the bloodthirsty barbarians.

Wearing exquisite Roman armor like a work of art, the young Gaius Plauteus Vennox was straight as a javelin, looking for his legion in the heavy rain.

His army was stationed in the New Wei city on the northwest of the Tiber River. The coup 40 years ago forced the great dictator Camilles to leave. Wei city, which might have become the strongest barrier in northern Rome, was depressed. If it weren't for Gaus's insistence, the idiots in the Senate would have given up this city and fully implemented their "Great Roman conception". Now the Romans would have no danger to defend against the barbarians.

But even in his family, Gaius, who had great ideals, did not receive 100% support, let alone the politicians in the Senate. They would rather spend money on their bathhouses and the exquisite toenails of female slaves than pay more silver coins to Gaius. Even when they were equipped with military sources, they even excluded Gaius's legion again and again. After several months of fierce battle, Gaius' legion was less than 9,000. Among them, there were even five hundred scouts with relatively low combat power.

Even in the heavy rain, the soldiers of the Gaius Legion were still wiping their daggers and javelins with only a small amount of sesame oil. Their standard Roman daggers were covered with scars, and some of the gunmen had only the last javelin left. But they still cherished these broken weapons as if they cherished their lives. The only fifty catapults left in the city had lost two-thirds of the battles in recent days, and now only a dozen were still used normally. But even so, Gaius's face still had a relaxed smile, which made his deputy admire him. This man who was determined to become a consul always had inspiring power and would become the strongest support for Roman soldiers in a series of cruel battles!

"Ah, it's the commander of the legion!"

"Oh, it's the great Gaius!"

The Roman soldiers who were standing or squatting on the city wall saw Gaius chewing and eating cousins ​​while smiling in the rain and jumped up excitedly. Gaius smiled and waved his palms, signaling them to return to their posts immediately, and said to the soldiers loudly: "Put your spirits, Roman heroes! Let me see how many Gaul's farts can you penetrate in the next battle."

The soldiers immediately burst into laughter, and someone shouted loudly: "I have exposed the assholes of thirty-seven Gauls, and the bodies of those guys are still piled under the city wall!"

Gaius immediately patted his shoulder and said to his deputy general: "What are you hesitating about? Give our hero a glass of wine, which is a reward for his bravery!" The rewarded soldiers drank the wine in one gulp, which immediately made the other soldiers extremely jealous. Each of them secretly swears that they must expose more Gaul's farts.

As he walked down the wall, Gaius lowered his voice and asked his deputy: "How is the information the scout has obtained?"

"It's a bad thing that the Legion Commander. The Senate still did not pass our request. They said that the Greek city-state in the south was the biggest threat to Rome. These Gauls were just a group of unorganized war madmen, so the most elite legion must stay in the south. We have the New Wei City as our support. As long as the war is dragged into the rainy season, the barbarians will retreat because they are not used to the humid climate of the Tiber River. Such a story has been staged countless times, and this time will not be an exception."

"A group of idiots, they will harm Rome! It seems that Camilles was not wrong back then. Rome needs not only the consul and the Senate, but also a powerful dictator, and even the 'Roman Emperor' in the consul's letter!"

"Captain of the Legion, do you want to support the consul?"

"The consul told me that if he became the Emperor of Rome, Rome would have great changes. In the future, he would appoint me to lead more than three legions to expand territory for Rome. Do you guess I will support him?"

Gaius smiled: "But even the consuls can't control the guys in the Senate now. All we have to do is to defend the new Wei city and wait for the arrival of Eastern reinforcements."

"I am willing to support the consul, just like the commander of the Legion, but do you believe in the Orientals so much? This is not the style of the Romans."

"Look at Persia, you will know that after being controlled by the Easterners, they get more benefits. What's more, Rome is too far from the East, so what's there to be afraid of? You know, I once went to Athens to study, and Mr. Aristotle was my teacher. Now even my teacher is willing to open a college in Athens with the Easterners. What else can I doubt? The Chinese Baizi is not the God King Xerxes. In fact, if he did not conquer, but partial control, to be precise, it would be a joint cooperation. Believe me, cooperate with the Easterners, whether we are the consuls, or Rome, they will get benefits."

"Since the Legion Commander said that, there must be nothing wrong with me. I will prepare for the next battle. The soldiers on the front line need food and weapons. I will equip them with the last weapons in the armed warehouse. As for food."

"Before reinforcements arrive, my soldiers must be full. Let's do this, all male slaves are reserved for the time being, and we still need them to work for the legion. As for those female slaves, whether they are beautiful or not, or have they ever given birth, they will make all of them into broth and cured meat for me, so that they can solve the food problem for half a month. Everything is for Rome!" Gaius waved his fist.

"Everything is for Rome!"

The deputy general raised his fist and waved it twice into the rain.
