"Next step" Voronos said: "Should we wait here for Caesar's army? Or should we continue to go deep alone to investigate Rome?"
Kirk silently said that the reason why Voronos prioritized standing still and waiting for reinforcements before continuing to investigate was obviously biased. In the eyes of this Roman officer, this performance of being outnumbered and fighting against thousands of people directly destroyed the enemy.
Even if the enemy's core force, the First Roman Legion, abandons the reconnaissance mission immediately, Caesar will reward him heavily. Besides, there are only less than 20 of the reconnaissance troops left, and they really cannot withstand a little disturbance. If they are unable to do so, give up the mission.
, even Caesar could understand.
Kirk was about to nod in agreement when he suddenly remembered something and shook his head: "Captain Voronos, I think Lord Caesar's order is very clear, which is for us to serve as a vanguard force to scout Rome and assess its defenses. Although we fought fiercely with the First Army
A battle, and achieved an epic victory, but the mission has not been completed after all. I will carry out Caesar's order and continue to march until we enter Rome!"
At this time, even Voronos, a tough man who carried out orders without compromise, was moved by Kirk's fearless spirit. He roared, performed a Roman chest-beating salute, and took Pu Luo down to prepare.
Luo glared at Kirk with a crazy look, thinking that this guy would give up until he got better. If Pompey left another army, even a few hundred reconnaissance cavalry, it would be enough to destroy this guy.
The reconnaissance team of dozens of people was destroyed.
Wang Han was also puzzled and asked Kirk why he insisted on pursuing Pompey. He should wait patiently for Caesar to arrive. Everything should be safe.
Kirk just smiled and said nothing, just urging the team to set off.
Fortunately, Kirk's judgment has never made a big mistake. Although everyone was very tired, they cheered up and mounted their horses. Taking advantage of the bright moonlight, they continued to march towards the city of Rome.
To everyone's surprise, along the way, they saw Pompey hurriedly fleeing from Rome, discarding baggage and finances along the way, as well as scolding officials, and not a single Pompey soldier came out to stop him.
Kirk led more than 20 people, holding high torches and holding open flames, as if they were entering an uninhabited land, and marched all the way.
It wasn't until they saw the majestic city walls of Rome again that Voronos and the others believed that Kirk had determined that Pompey was determined to never attack again, which was why he could go so boldly deep.
The city gate in the distance was wide open, and many refugees were fleeing with their children and their children crying.
Kirk ordered the reconnaissance cavalry not to stay, separated the refugee flow all the way, passed through the majestic city gate, and rushed into the city of Rome!
Rome, this legendary city known as the "Eternal City" and "The City that Never Sets", fell into Kirk's hands on a moonlit night as bright as snow!
The clanking iron cavalry of the 13th Legion finally broke the precedent that Rome would never fall, and brought the capital that Pompey had abandoned in a hurry under their iron heel!
The reconnaissance troops ran frantically on the main roads of Rome, and soon confirmed the fact that Pompey had fled and Rome was completely undefended.
Although he only has about 20 riders, Kirk is the undisputed actual controller of Rome at this time!
He ordered loudly: "Vorenos! You take Pluto and others to the central square and the Senate in Rome and other places, announce Caesar's occupation of Rome. And paste Caesar's personal letters on the bulletin boards everywhere,
To appease the Roman people, I will lead my men to pursue Pompey!"
Octavian stood aside, his eyes turning into little stars. In his view, it was precisely because of Kirk's decisiveness that he seized this golden opportunity and became the first warrior to invade Rome.
A great contribution. At least he can become a captain in the 13th Legion!
With one man's strength, he led 100 cavalry from the 13th Legion and completely annihilated the First Legion that was waiting for Caesar's main force by the Tiber River!
With the courage of an ordinary man, he led the remaining 20 cavalrymen from the bloody battle. He rushed into Pompey's base camp, the capital of the Republic, Rome, and declared Caesar's victory!
At this time, he still had to take four of his companions, Yu Yong, to chase Pompey who was fleeing in a hurry!
What kind of warrior is this?
If such a person is not the strongest warrior of the Romans, then who can deserve this title?
He did not know that Kirk boldly chose to lead people to attack Rome because he knew in advance that Pompey would abandon Rome.
What he didn't even know was that Kirk sent Volenos and Puluo away in order to take on a bigger adventure.
Although the benefits are greater, the risks are not great, so Kirk does not want these guys to follow and share the profits.
In short, Octavian had completely fallen in love with Kirk's bravery, and after he conquered Rome, his favorability increased again.
Kirk's team also received a space prompt: "[Dragon King] veteran team, because you led the army to directly capture the Roman city that has not fallen for thousands of years, you have completed the hidden mission and hidden title. You have obtained the title of [Whip of God]
:The world legend is increased by 1 again. Currently it is due to the space difficulty of A+, and all attributes are + again."
Xiaopang was overjoyed, but he was puzzled again: "I don't understand, why did I just defeat the First Legion and get the title of Enemy of Ten Thousands with +3 in all attributes, but this time I only have +1 in all attributes?"
Kirk said: "In space, rewards are directly proportional to risks. According to the original plot, because he could not recruit enough legions in a short time, Pompey would voluntarily abandon Rome and flee across the sea in a hurry. This is the plot arrangement of space. The contractor only needs to follow the plot and find a way to obtain it.
Caesar's forward force qualifications can complete this title and mission, but the ambush of the First Army is indeed the result of a significant change in the plot. We are fighting 500 against 6000. The strength of both sides is not at the same level. I think the First Army can be completely annihilated.
It is indeed worth the reward of +3 for all attributes.”
He smiled: "Actually, we haven't collected the rewards for wiping out the First Legion just now. I sent Volenos and the others away just now to take you to collect the rewards."
Although Octavian wanted to continue to follow Kirk, Kirk coaxed him to follow Plo to the Central Square and the Senate, plant the battle flag of the 13th Legion, and announce
Conquest of Rome.
Kirk, along with Wang Han, Xiaopang and Sheva, rode wildly towards Pompey's escape direction.
Xiaopang couldn't help complaining again: "Brother, you left Rome not to explore and occupy, but you took us to chase Pompey. Aren't you afraid that Pompey would set up an ambush again? He is a famous general. How can you not be on guard?
Behind me?"
Wang Han's eyes lit up: "Could it be that you want to take us there?"
Kirk laughed loudly: "Now Rome has been emptied by Pompey. Even if Caesar comes personally, he will only get a city in name only. The eternal city that has not faded for thousands of years, Rome, has its wealth and essence."
At this time, the four Kirks had already rushed out of the city of Rome. In the moonlight of the forest on both sides, the moonlight was floating, and a large cart pulled by a huge buffalo appeared on the road ahead. Due to the heavy cargo,
, even on the world-famous avenue of Rome, this strong cow walked with great difficulty, mooing twice from time to time to express its dissatisfaction.
The driver on the bullock cart was sweating profusely and hitting the bullock's buttocks with his bullwhip, trying to make the buffalo speed up. Next to him, there was a petite figure lying down.
Kirk showed a smile: "Sure enough! Pompey's adjutant's adjutant has not taken this ox cart very far. And in the Roman Republic's treasury on this ox cart, the astonishing wealth accumulated over thousands of years,
This is the ultimate reward for us to defeat the First Roman Legion and seize the city of Rome under the starry night."
After hearing the two key words "treasury" and "wealth", Xiaopang's eyes turned green and he quickly asked Kirk what was going on.
It turns out that according to the plot, due to time constraints, when Pompey left Rome, he ordered his adjutant to transport all the gold from the treasury and take it to the seaside for shipment. Pompey's adjutant was betrayed by his subordinate Appius who was interested in the money.
) stabbed to death. The latter was driving a gold car that was extremely wealthy, and he did not forget to plunder his beautiful sister along the way. A young slave girl named Eirene fled to escape the war, and was spotted by Appileus on the way.
, robbed him halfway. This behavior of hugging grass and hunting rabbits obviously angered the gods. This daring and even more daring thief and adulterous thief. Before he ran far, he met Puluo and Voronos.
The guy behind him is the one who has lost all three things: wealth, sex, and life. Puluo is attracted by the oncoming gold mountain and the beauty who saved his life.
It's appropriate.
Seeing the four cavalrymen wearing the armor of the 13th Legion rushing behind him, Appileus panicked and tried desperately to drive the ox cart to escape. But this improvised behavior was obviously too late.
Kirk gave a wink. The fat little man rushed forward, barking excitedly like a mad dog.
Time was running out, and Kirk naturally knew that in the original play, although Puluo temporarily obtained gold, he also wanted to fly away. But Caesar, who only got an empty city, had no gold to pay his military salary, and was so anxious that he searched everywhere like a mad dog, and finally confiscated the gold.
He gave the order, and a ball of blood suddenly burst out from the back of Appiles, who was fighting with Fatty. He cut his throat with a knife. This precise shot was naturally the work of Shevchenko.
.
Apilius's eyes quickly lost their luster. He didn't understand how he could be caught up by the 13th legion when he killed the superior officer and smuggled the gold so covertly. Wasn't the first legion setting up an ambush by the Tiber River?
Is Graeber ambitious enough to annihilate Caesar's main force?
It seems that the First Army Corps has been defeated. I am really unwilling to accept it.
Xiaopang lifted up a box and was stunned. He howled excitedly: "Gold! Everything is gold!"
Wang Han frowned: "Isn't it called the treasury of the Roman Republic? Why is there only one ox cart? Even if all of them are Orei, the maximum is about one million."
Kirk smiled bitterly: "Sister, Rome is very aggressive and has been fighting for many years. The fact that there are so many ores left in the treasury is the result of Pompey's wealth and philanthropy. Do you still want gold and silver?"
Xiaopang asked Kirk excitedly: "Brother, why did you say to Mao that this treasury is the final reward for us to solve the First Army?"
Kirk laughed and said: "Perhaps due to the existence of the virus, the plot has changed significantly. The First Army suddenly set up an ambush by the Tiber River to block our progress. If we escaped the ambush and chased and escaped back to Caesar, the car would naturally be the same tonight.
The gold will fall into the hands of Pompey or the thieves. If we defeat the First Legion and stand by contentedly, we will also miss the gold!"
Wang Han said: "But in the plot, even if we get this gold, under Caesar's mad dog tracking, this car of gold will be found sooner or later. Unless we don't want to stay in Caesar's camp, we have to hand the gold back."
Xiaopang shouted: "God knows this, you know it and I know it, how could it be discovered by Caesar? Volenus, Prolo and Octavian were all separated by the eldest brother, and the only one who knew about it was killed by me.
."
Wang Han pursed his lips, and then Xiaopang saw a girl lying on the carriage.
This is a difficult situation. Is it possible to kill someone and silence them?
Kirk laughed: "Although the value of these million ores is very high, we are not Romans. We neither ask for land, nor do we need to bribe officials. These things are of little use. According to my guess, if it is expected
Nice words”
He strode forward and moved the gold box away, revealing the large box underneath. He used his sword to pick open the copper lock, revealing the contents inside.
It is a magnificent statue of Venus.
Xiaopang was greatly disappointed: "It turns out to be a work of art. This thing is even less valuable and not easy to sell."
Kirk smiled: "Pompeo was a man with a wide range of hobbies and liked to collect many precious treasures. This sculpture is a peerless treasure for him. But for a rough guy like Xiaopang, it is useless. Let me look at this again
."
Everyone felt itchy when they saw Kirk rummaging through the treasure chest. Although there were not as many as expected, this is the treasury of the Roman Republic after all, and there should be a lot of good things in it.
Sure enough, when Xiaopang opened an inconspicuous box, a familiar dark green light illuminated the night sky!
