Unlimited Military Base

The latest chapter of the infinite military base, Volume II: my country seven hundred and sixty. Senate, floating astronomy

Richtofen probably got up very early. When he saw Wang Weizhen, his eyes were full of sarcasm. It seemed that he knew what happened last night, or if he wanted to ask, The Drifter still had the energy to do it all day. Things?

Wang Weizhen is also a bit embarrassed. After all, they are not real Romans. When faced with such ridiculous things, they are still embarrassed.

"Oh, our love." Richtofen couldn't help but first issued Laughing Joke: "Need me to help you find a good doctor to help you recover your waist?"

"I have no problem with my waist, but I am worried about you." Wang Weizhen said nothing against the weak: "It is you, I think maybe Krasicius will not let you go."

"Damn." As soon as he thought of the terrible eyes of Krasicius, Richtofen felt that his back was cold. He would rather return to the battlefield and come back to Caesar for a face-to-face confrontation, and would never like to face Krasi. Chius's eyes.

And all of this is what Ernst picked up. . . . . .

The two men did not stop at the breakfast, which made their housekeeper Vallas feel very curious, he has never seen such a master.

I just used breakfast, and I came out to report that the only governor, Pompey, arrived. The two men glanced at each other. Couldn’t Pompey wait for the interest of the house?

When Pompeii was greeted, Pompey looked very concerned about whether they were still used to living here. After a courtesy reply, Pompey said slowly: "Today, the Senate will be open to the public and solve it. Some questions from Roman citizens. My friends, Sprius, Tius, are you interested in attending?"

Wang Weizhen and Richtofen did not understand the rules of the city of Rome. The two men looked at each other and asked: "Can we participate?"

"Of course." Pompey was very curious about their problems: "This is a meeting open to everyone, every Roman citizen can participate, of course, not including those despicable slaves. In this meeting, I will also introduce to all the people of a Roman young man, the son of a Roman hero..."

This quickly caused the curiosity of Wang Weizhen and Richtofen. Pompey said slowly: "I think, I personally have heard about the annihilation of the damn pirates and the things I have fought against the King of Ben."

Wang Weizhen nodded, this is the two most beautiful things in Pompey.

当时地中海的海盗活动猖獗，他们利用自己的船只、武装和罗马的贵族骑士串通一气，袭击来往商船抢劫沿海城市，从事“贩卖人肉”的勾当。公元前67年罗马出现粮荒，人们认为这是海盗活动所致，强烈要求采取紧急措施。公民大会任命庞培为剿匪司令官，授与前所未有的广泛权力，配备给他25名副职，120000步兵，4000骑兵，270条战舰限期三年内肃清。

庞培面对地中海海域辽阔而海盗神出鬼没的情况，制定出分片包抄战术。他将地中海以及自己的军队和武器装备划为12部分，分别交与副将指挥因此，在地中海上辙下罗网，形成地中海上处处有军队与海盗交战的态势。庞培还亲自巡查各个据点加强对副将的监督。庞培军队规模之庞大，战术之高明，准备工作之充分，使海盗惊慌失措。大部分海盗隐蔽到山顶和港湾。庞培在付诸武力的同时，又对海盗施以怀柔宽大政策，对于一切放下武器者均保留生命与自由。在此情况下，海盗纷纷乞降只是少数死硬分子遭到庞培的坚决镇压。最后，10000多名海盗顽固分子被消灭900艘船只被缴获，120座海盗要塞被摧毁。庞培还把俘虏的海盗或遣回各自国家，或迁往南海较远的地方居住，给以安置。庞培仅用3个月时间出色地完成了平定海盗的任务。长期以来停滞的海上贸易得到了恢复，意大利和地中海沿岸各国安全有了保证，地中海的控制权重新归于罗马。

At the beginning of 66 in BC, the Citizens’ Congress passed the insurance officer’s official. It was also the proposal to support Manilius, who was led by Pompey to destroy the pirates. He appointed Pompey as the commander of the battle with the King of the capital, Mitra Darts VI. It replaced Rukurus, who had achieved great results in fighting with the King of Bendo, and took over his army.

After Pompey came to the East, he first negotiated with the King of Bendo and demanded that he all surrendered unconditionally and was rejected. So he led the army to besieged the capital, broke the grain road, and threatened to surrender. In the end, the King of the Kings was unable to help the soldiers to break out, and Pompey led the soldiers to chase them. In the upper reaches of the Euphrates River he caught up and defeated the army of Mitra Dates VI. The King of Bendo led the 800 cavalry to barely break out, and Pang Peijun pursued the victory and broke into Ibero and Albania. However, due to the great difficulties in fighting in the mountains, Pompey had to suspend the expedition and satisfied the surrender on the surface of the tribes in the outer Caucasus mountains and returned to the capital. In the 63 BC, Mitra Darts VI died of poison, and Pompey triumphantly ended the Mitra Darts war. After the war, he merged Bitinia and Bento into a Roman province, and later turned Syria into a Roman province. He was active in the Asia Minor and Palestine, intervening, and in the Galatians, Cappadocia too helped the new king, so that some Eastern countries were enslaved in Rome.

Pompey himself became the "king of the king" in some kingdoms in the East. His power and prestige reached its peak and became the most powerful person in Rome.

This is two things that all the Romans talked about, and in Pompey's two fascinating expeditions, one person played a big role in it:

The security officer Manilius!

It was because of Manilius that Pompey reached the peak of his life, but unfortunately, Manilius did not enjoy honor with Pompey.

Not long after the Pompeii whirlwind, Manilius was assassinated by his own enemies, leaving a son, Kuyarius, who was taken up by Pompey to raise a child.

What Pompey wants to introduce to the Senate and all the Romans today is the Cuirius who has grown up.

Wang Weizhen some faintly guessed the purpose of Pompey's invitation to go, but it was not very sure. I thought about it there: "I am very happy to accept your invitation, the only Archon."

Pompey smiled with satisfaction.

Of course, Wang Weizhen and Richtofen are also curious about the Senate. . . . . .

The Roman Senate, located at the foot of the Palatine Hill, scorned the crowds that rushed to it. No matter how excited they were, it never twitched.

From yesterday afternoon, the citizens of the Roman Republic knew that the only governor, Pompey, was coming to the Senate today. As Pompey’s power grew, he began to deliberately remain mysterious. He usually only held a veteran meeting in the colonnade of the Temple of Apollo next to his home. He had not come to the Senate for a long time, so the news caused The attention of the whole city. In addition to the fact that there are almost no absenteees from a thousand elders, a large number of people have come to see the enthusiasm.

The gates of the Senate are facing the Fabiru Square. The veterans usually meet here. Although it is not a temple, the Romans regard it as a holy place. There is an arcade in front of the Senate, as if the entrance to the temple is general. The building of the Senate itself is a wide square hall. Each side is decorated with a column of columns. The top of the column is a corridor. Now it has been crowded by the people. Full of it.

Below, there are three rows of marble benches arranged in a semicircle, that is, the seats of the veterans, with silk blankets or leather mats on the seats. Facing the gate are two marble tables and two magnificent triumphal chairs for the consul. In the middle of the highest row of semi-circular marble seats, it is the seat of the elders of the elders; facing the consul, facing away from the gate, is the seat of the security officer, which was only nearly two hundred years ago. At the time of the previous meeting of the Senate, the seat of the public security officer was placed under the arcade in front of the courtyard.

In the eyes of everyone's expectations, Pompey's sedan slowly came to the front of the Senate from the Palatine Hill. The commander of the six guards next to the sedan was guarded by Fu Jian, and Kuyarius, who followed the walk. ― That is the young man that Pompey will be solemnly launched today.

In the crowd, Wang Weizhen and Richtofen are watching this silently.

The four people who were familiar with the Romans’ simple decoration lifted the car and stopped. The original bustling sound suddenly lowered its decibels. The eyes on the square and the cloister were all staring at the sedan at the exit of the sedan, waiting for it. The owner, the only governor of the Romans who was supreme, Pang Pei opened it.

But strange, after waiting for a while, there is still no movement in the sedan. Krastinus, a young officer, put his ear on the barrier of the car for a minute or two, and soon his face showed a weird smile.

Krastinus and Kuyarius whispered a few words, Cuyarius stepped forward and explored his body into the sedan. . . . . . After a while, Pompey’s body was drilled out of the car. The Roman ruler licked his eyes and smiled embarrassedly. He said to the crowd: “Friends, I fell asleep on the road. You know, I hate getting up early. Hey, I slept early enough last night."

A burst of laughter once again raised the sound of the square. Under this huge noise, Pompey sorted out his purple robe and walked peacefully toward the steps of the Senate in the passage of the crowd: countless hands reach him. I am eager to shake his hand; people are constantly shouting the name of Pompey, and praying for the gods in the sky to bless him; a bunch of spring flowers are cast on the old man, the delicate petals are on Pompey’s shoulders, on the clothes, And his skin that has been slightly old.

Pompey smiled and faced all of this. His manners were solemn and yet harmonious, and his gentle eyes made everyone feel that he was being watched by him. After climbing the steps, many of the veterans who heard the cheers outside also rushed out to meet their true masters under the leadership of Masenas.

Suddenly, Pompey's gaze fell on a woman in her fifties. She tried to squeeze into the front, but she was blocked by the strong arms of the officers, and almost fell in the crowd.

"Let the respectable woman come over." The people around heard the sound of Pompevin and the majesty.

The handsome Kuyarius immediately stepped forward and used the powerful arm to help the woman break free from the crowd and then helped her to come to her grandfather.

"If I didn't guess wrong, what do you want to say to me?" Pompey said softly with his gentle smile.

The woman apparently has not recovered from the fright of being trampled by people just a while. When her breathing gradually stabilized, she only reacted and stood in front of Pompey. Looking at Pompey, who ruled hundreds of millions of people, the natural timidity of a woman made her unable to back down, and her lips shook a few times without saying anything.

Pompey’s sharp eyes had already seen the woman holding a roll of paper in her hand, and there was no doubt that it was a petition asking for help. He smiled and said to the veterans who had come to him: "Look, she seems to be raising a coin to an elephant. Friends, please tell her that Pompey in Rome is not so terrible."

This joke made the woman relax her nervousness. But she still didn't have enough courage to speak in front of Pompey, just silently handed the petition over.

Pompey opened the petition and quickly read it again. "Hey, your husband has just passed away. May the gods in heaven bless his soul... well, he left you a bunch of gambling debts and three Young children and creditors are also threatening to drive you away from the house where you live now."

"Yeah, I really have no choice. I have to pray for the father of our motherland. I hope that his compassion will help me get rid of this terrible situation." The tears of the woman poured out and fell on the ground and began to kiss Pompey's hand. .

Pompey kindly raised her. "Please come up. Since Pompey knows about it, please believe that he will never allow this to happen! Later today, my adopted son, Kuyarius, is just now. The young man who will help you will come to your home to visit. You will not feel any lack of it afterwards."

Immediately, he thought for a moment and said, "It seems that you are already very tired. You must be waiting for me here very early. Please come home on my car now, so you can save some energy."

When the nearby Guards officer urged the woman to board Pompey’s car, she reacted from a dizzy reaction. She began to search for Pompey with tears in her eyes, but only saw him. The robe sleeves flashed, and Pompey had walked into the hall of the Senate in the crowd of the elders.

After entering the Senate, Pompey still had a smile, but Kuyarius, who followed him closely, was keenly aware of the changes. He lost his charming charm in his smile but added a little pride. The square was amiable. The passionate Pompey became the only governor of Rome in dignity and dignity; apparently in the square his adoptive father hoped that ordinary people would forget his identity, and in the hall of the Senate, he would like to have the right to sit. People here remember that he is the master of Rome.

Pompey waited until the veterans sat down and walked to their seats. As he walked, he greeted the elders with greetings. Without the reminder, he clearly called out everyone’s name and let several new people enter the Senate. The veteran who did not have the opportunity to know him was surprised and happy. The attitude of the only Roman consul is both intimate and arrogant. A series of words that are greeted by the identity and character of the greet are swept through the hall, and the eulogy of the tide is ignored.

After coming to the highest row of semi-circular marble seats, Pompey sneaked into the two consuls below and sat quietly. Culiarius quietly retreated to the cloister, where he saw Pompey’s official clerk leaning on the marble column, Mananias, and several Guards officers stayed there.

Kuyarius politely said hello, and stood with them, and then concentrated on his father's seat. After a while, his brow wrinkled and sat under some veteran purple robes beside Pompeii. It seems to be wearing thick clothes, which is very strange in early summer. Soon, he judged from the slightly stiff movements of the few veterans: Under the Toga robe is the armor!

Kuyarius was shocked. He tried to keep calm and his feet began to move quietly there. Always worried about Manias, who watched Pang’s every move, discovered the movements of young people. He respected Kuyarius with respect and care.

"My master, please don't worry," he whispered.

Upon hearing this title, Kuyarius locked his brow, because Pompey hated people calling him "master", so in addition to his loyal steward Dyme Des, he refused to change his mouth. Pompey also had no way to take him. Outside; other people in the family, including those who were rescued from the slaves by Pompeii like Manias, no longer call him this way. But today, Manias added this name to his head, which made Kuyarius very unpleasant, but at this moment he has not considered this.

"You didn't see the people around my adoptive father wearing armor? Maybe they still have weapons!" Cuyarius also whispered.

Manias smiled a little, he certainly saw it, and he also knew what kind of weapons the veterans brought.

Every time Pompey came to the Senate, Masenas arranged for ten loyal and reliable veterans to wear armor and carry a short sword to protect him in the Senate. The cautious Pompey does not want to have a scene of assassination in Rome. Occurs on the body.

"They are all friends of Pompey's loyalty and volunteer to protect him." He carefully chose the wording and said to Cuyarius.

Kuyalius breathed a sigh of relief, and at this moment he heard the speech of the consul.
