Roman Slave Owner

Chapter 38 transaction

After discovering that Scipio and Nias had arrived, Li Wei was overjoyed and thought he could survive this level.

But I did not expect that the ancient tower was so burdened that even the senators of the Roman Senate were detained. This is simply unexpected.

So he could only think of a way to shake the morale of the enemy. In fact, he did so very usefully, and the garrisons of Capuya were a little scared.

“Leave him alone, we have no way out!”

Guta coldly snorted.

“That’s right, this is a big gamble, either succeeds or lives in exile.”

Saiyanus also said.

“Then let me do the last blog.”

Guta said, and after finishing speaking, he made preparations for siege.

The soldiers escorted Scipio and Nia to a carriage in the distance, then respectfully moved a few chairs from above and asked them to sit down.

“These people are too much, I really want to let them know how good I am. What’s wrong with you…”

Nias said angrily.

Scipio did not speak, but instead opened the box and carefully looked at a piece of papyrus inside.

After reading it, he fell silent, and then handed the papyrus to Nias.

Nias was surprised after reading it. He didn’t expect Guta and Saiyanus to offer such a condition.

“what should we do?”

Nias asked cautiously, while hiding the papyrus.

Scipio didn’t answer immediately, because Guta and the others suggested that as long as Scipio and Nias were put under house arrest with peace of mind, don’t intervene in the middle.

As long as it is done, the sugar formula will have one of them.

If they fail, they will justify Guta and Saiyanus, and they will have no complaints.

Sepia and Nias cannot be unmoved by such favorable conditions.

Especially Nias, he and Scipio are so far behind in status that he never thought that he might get the sugar formula.

But now there is a chance…

The huge benefits of sugar can be seen by individuals. With this thing, even if it is shared by a few people, there may be a profit of more than one million dinars a year.

How can such a huge interest keep them unmoved.

What’s more, even if he fails, Li Wei doesn’t know. I am afraid he will still thank them, and even fully support their journey to compete for archon.

And all they need to pay is to be seized quietly…

Scipio and Nias slowly smiled, and they both understood each other’s thoughts.

“Do you have a fire?”

Nias asked.

“No, what’s the matter?”

A soldier said with trepidation.

“Find me a fire, I’m useful.”

Nia said.

It didn’t take long for this papyrus to burn in the flames.

“False evidence, obviously false evidence, how could Li Wei collude with Sura.”

Nias said.

“you’re right.”

Scipio looked at the distant manor leisurely, and didn’t know if Li Wei could withstand the attack of Capuya’s garrison.

At this moment, the Capuja garrisons were divided into two groups, one attacking the main entrance, and the other going around in the other direction. Li Wei said: “Geta, you are here to guard, and I will take some people to defend other places. ”

“Ok.”

Getta said.

“You must keep it.”

Li Wei hammered his chest.

“Patriarch, don’t worry, people are in the city, unless I die, the wall will never be lost.”

Getta said.

Li Wei nodded, and walked to other places with some of his guards. Due to time constraints and funding constraints, Li Wei’s walls were not perfect.

Many places are simple walls, which gives Oulus an opportunity.

Olus found a place and directly ordered people to bring in a ladder and let the soldiers climb up the wall from the ladder.

After a soldier got on the ladder, but didn’t know that someone had heard the movement outside the wall, some guards gathered here.

The soldier stretched his head to look at the situation below, and found that many people below were already waiting. Some guards were holding crossbows and some were holding javelins.

Although the Romans don’t like crossbows, Li Wei likes them very much.

The previous generations of the Han and the Huns were able to gain the upper hand in the battle, and the crossbow played a vital role.

Moreover, the Roman crossbows are very backward, not even compound bows, and energy loss is great during shooting. Li Wei has already included the improvement of the crossbows in his next plan.

“Let the arrow!”

a centurion said loudly.

The guards holding heavy crossbows immediately activated the crossbow. Arrows shot at the guards on the fence, and the soldier quickly retracted his head.

“The city wall is too high. If you jump from above, you might break your leg. And we only have a few ladders. Jumping down one by one is for them to die.”

A centurion said to Olus.

Olus looked at the wall carefully. The whole wall was about six meters high, equivalent to the height of a three-story building. It would be fatal to jump from the top wearing armor.

“Then what shall we do?”

Olus said.

“Just wait for the ballista to come over, it’s easy to break these walls.”

said the centurion.

Olus frowned tightly. The ballista cart was pulled by a bullock cart. Each centurion team of the Roman army would be equipped with a ballista, and then one person from each squad would be assigned to operate the ballista cart.

But the ballista car is very slow, it takes a long time to arrive, so it hasn’t arrived yet.

What he didn’t know was that Li Wei had already sent guards from other manors to intercept the ballista.

“Is there any other way?”

“Yes, UU reading www.uukanshu.com, for example, cut down a few big trees and hit the wall directly with the trunk of the tree and it can collapse.”

said the Centurion.

“Then let people do it quickly, don’t waste time.”

Olus said.

The centurion took the order happily, and he didn’t want to go to this mess, it would be best to do logistics to kill time behind.

Olus is still thinking about how to complete the containment work.

After waiting for a long time, Li Wei found that there was still no siege action on the other side, but he didn’t know that they were stumped by this wall.

So he asked Judge Leberis to direct the battle here, and he returned to the place where the city gate was.

“Slow down, not too fast.”

In the city of Capuya, four bearers quickly walked towards Capuya Senate with one shoulder.

Old Turius sat on his shoulders and said weakly.

Roman colonies, municipalities, and many states have structures similar to Rome, such as municipal officials, justices, and local senate, but the number of senators in the local senate is much smaller, generally around 100 people.

Among them, Campania is special. In the past, cities such as Capua were directly managed by Rome’s administrative officials.

Its function is equivalent to that of a justice, used to decide local conflicts.

But then the administrators competed for four administrators from 10 cities in Campania and other places, which is the so-called four chiefs of Campania.

Tulius the old is a member of the Capuja Senate and the chief senator of the local Senate.

If it hadn’t been for Li Wei to send someone to inform him that a major incident had occurred, the body of the old Turius would really be reluctant to go to the Capuya Senate.
