"My family recently dug out an ancient god's mark..." Feibius stood up unscrupulously and ended the silence. Then a group of veterans, including Caesar, were all talking about the dangerous thing of summoning the ancient god, just as if the meeting had ended.

As for Pompianus, he stood on the stage and trembled. I am afraid that this country is not going to be finished, but it is already finished!

At this moment, including the veterans who had coveted the position of a financial officer, they silently gave up this position. Now everyone is holding Pompianus and you are still dying in the position of a financial officer. I am afraid no one can be the position anymore. This is not a deficit. You can do it, you can! You can treat it until you die in the future. This position will be given to you. Whoever is crazy will take the blame!

If the position of the financial officer during the Five Sages of Emperors was C, then the time of Commod was almost B+. By the time of Severus, there was probably a whopping army expansion. However, it was so difficult. Pompianus could still play with the surplus, which made Severus expand the army ecstatically and pay food and pay.

After you step down, when you compare the two sides, the difficulty of this position is probably impossible to measure. No one dared to take the blame for a while. Originally, he felt that he had the wealth he had plundered from Anxu, and it was not difficult to take the position of the financial officer. After a while, he seized the opportunity to attack and cut him off the stage, and it would have no effect on changing someone.

Now, haha, I guess Pompianus was killed. The Senate had to find a way to fill the pit for Seville. The 400,000 army of food and money was too much paid, and they had to give rewards. Whoever likes to mess with should go? Anyway, those who have the brain will definitely not fight Pompianus. At this time, whoever killed Pompianus would raise the food and money of hundreds of thousands of people that year.

Even if there are only half of the Roman citizens, according to Severus' habits, they will not even cheat the barbarians who serve in the army. Even if they send a small part of them, they will be a bit too scary under this huge base. This is absolutely not acceptable. Pompianus, it is better for you to die in office.

Looking at the Senate who had already begun to take out his marks and summoned it on the spot, and watching the group of veterans gathered together in groups of three or three to comment on the summoning ceremony. Regardless of his own exhaustion, Pompianus had a strange idea.

[Maybe Your Majesty sent this news on purpose just to let these senators understand that they can’t touch me now, right?] Pompianus comforted himself, but for some reason, he still felt a kind of grief from the bottom of his heart, this country! This senate!

The ancient god was finally summoned and then was captured by the Tenth Eagle Flag Legion in miracle mode. Gods and other things do have strength, but it also depends on the opponent. Compared to the first Italy, an old god overturned the Roman Senate and guarded by the tenth knights. At the moment when the ancient god was furious, he directly grasped the connection of the summoning ceremony.

There is no way, even if it is a conceptual thing, as long as the tenth knight forced to touch it, the miraculous state can forcefully grasp that concept with a human body.

To put it simply, if the Tenth Knight wants to force his time to stay, as long as they have this awareness, they can do it. It is very difficult, and the time it can force him to stay is very short, but the inability to do it and the inability to do it are completely different concepts.

The way to capture the ancient god this time was that the tenth knight forced the pitcher between the summoning ceremony, and even the ancient god was captured by them. After a group fight, the ancient god was captured alive. The method was extremely simple and the effect was extremely cruel. However, the members of the Senate thought it was just right. After all, it was the tenth knight present at Caesar, a mere ancient god...

Dion silently took out the papyrus, recorded what the Senate was doing today, and finally made an evaluation - Rome, which was sunny and beautiful, is extremely peaceful today.

In short, no one will go to Pompianus in size, nor will anyone be willing to feel Pompianus's current grief. The Senate is still moving further and further on the road to death.

After the ancient god was taken down, the Senate began a second issue, about requesting assistance after the Kushan alliance. To be honest, since colluding with the Han Dynasty, the Senate has no interest in forming an alliance with the Kushan.

In the past, the greatest significance of Kushan was the Maritime Silk Road. By relying on the sea route, Kushan could transport a lot of silk from the Han Dynasty every year. However, that was the past. Now, Rome had already killed rest and the Han Dynasty also decided to contact Rome on land.

Rome also obtained the pricing power of silk, and the price dropped to one-third of the previous one. He no longer had any interest in high-priced silk like Kushan. After all, the silk obtained by Kushan is not a very good thing, and the official authentic Shu brocade can't get it at all.

Since the Han Dynasty is in an official business, there are very few things like tribute-level things. After all, the Han Dynasty is also shameless. It is not that it is really not given any top-quality goods. If this is the case, the trade will probably not last long.

Therefore, the Roman nobles can basically buy silk that is one level higher than before at one third of the previous price, so naturally they have no interest in Kushan.

Mainly, Rome has seen the situation clearly now. Its legs are short. Although the Han Dynasty has long legs, the distance between the two sides is too far and cannot be fought at all. At most, it is local friction. Although the empire is so huge, the intensity of a friction is enough to make some small countries ascend to heaven.

But at the level of Rome and Han Dynasty, that is friction.

Besides, Rome and the Han Dynasty are still in their honeymoon period, and even Rome wants to sell all the horse farms that were searched and suppressed from Parthia to the Han Dynasty. However, because the distance is too far, it is not worth it to send them back to Rome. The Han Dynasty wants them, but it is really crazy to drive more than 100,000 horses and cross thousands of miles.

So the horses that Rome made from Parthia have now been smashed into the hands. Recently, the Romans were fooling their legion commanders to engage in cavalry. However, in terms of effect, it basically means that there is no. The Romans are not suitable for cavalry. Except for a few legions that have war horses, other legions...

If it weren't for the fact that the Han Dynasty would definitely move over, and the horses in their hands might be able to take action. Rome now wanted to sell these war horses to citizens at a low price as mounts.

In short, what is the situation in Kushan now? Rome has no interest at all. Kushan wants to hire a Roman legion or something, and Rome has no interest at all. The Roman Empire now has no extravagant things. It can solve many problems with force, but Kushan cannot help if it cannot be solved by force. It is so realistic.

Therefore, after this issue was raised, most of the senators in the Senate abstained from the right to say that they would not participate. The rest were thinking about the interests here, but in the end they all felt that it was really meaningless to form an alliance with the Kushan, and it would be better to hook up with the Han Dynasty.

"I think the relationship between Kushan can be continued. Our current financial pressure is a bit too high." Pompianus suddenly spoke, and the others shut up directly, then looked at Pompianus with a complete expression of what you said.

However, the veterans working in the Senate also instantly understood what Pompianus meant. There are only two biggest problems in Rome now. One is that Severus is always expanding its military power, causing the country's finances to become increasingly difficult, and the other is that there are more and more barbarians, which will sooner or later have an impact on the current citizenship system and lead to the collapse of the Roman citizenship system.

Therefore, after Pompianus spoke, the eyes of those who were actually working were flashing, and they almost understood what Pompianus meant in an instant. This guy seemed to want to consume some of the barbarians and make the country more stable. On the other hand, he probably wanted to reduce part of his expenditure and help the Kushan fight. He couldn't let them pay for Rome.

Maybe we can still get a part of the mercenaries from the hands of this group of mercenaries. After all, with the situation of Pompianus, the main ones sent were the barbarians.

However, this issue was removed and not passed. Although the senators in the Roman Senate clearly explained the value of this matter, they had to think about the impact of doing so, so the matter was put on hold first.

Pompianus didn't say anything else. He knew that this issue was just put on hold and not taken down, which means that there should be a great possibility of passing it later, especially as time goes by, the Senate felt that after the Roman foundation was unstable, it would definitely pass it.

The prosperity of the Roman Empire was due to the strong centripetal force of the civic system, and the decline of the Roman Empire was also due to the limitations of the civic system. If anyone really wanted to say that this kind of thing might not be possible, it was just a matter of difficulty.

At this level, the Romans who enjoyed the treatment of Roman citizens would never give up their interests. When the barbarians found that even if they had sharpened their heads, they might not get into this system, so the Roman Empire was probably not far from collapse.

Now Roman citizens still retain the vast majority of the country's strength and most of the finances, and can still rely on other means to maintain the country.

As for the future, even Pabinian, Urbian, Pompianus, and Seville had no way to do so. Anyone who knew could see the crisis in Rome. Especially after comparing the Han Dynasty, many veterans knew that Rome had gone astray, but after so many years, even the foundation of the empire was pressed on this, and it was impossible to reform.
