Roman Slave Owner

Chapter 398 Katilin Rebellion

A large number of senators gathered in the Roman Senate, and the new consul Cicero was giving an impassioned speech.

“Dear elders, under the guidance of the true god, the great pope landed in Britain and defeated the barbarians there. This is an extremely great discovery! Everything must be attributed to the great true god! This is a miracle!”

“I recommend a 20-day thank-you ceremony to commemorate our discovery of the New World.”

There was thunderous applause in the Senate, and the discovery of the New World was indeed a very memorable event.

Menmuse showed a false smile on his face, but a sneer in his heart, so please be proud of it. It won’t take long for you to cry and you won’t be able to cry.

It’s just that he was also frightened by the greatness of the true God. He is simply omniscient and omnipotent, even the distant Britain knows it. If he were not in a hostile position, he wouldn’t mind serving the true god.

“I formally propose to discuss this. What is your opinion, Chief Elder Catullus?”

“I agree with this.”

Catullus said with a smile.

“Dora Bella, what’s your opinion?”

“Seconded.”

The matter went very smoothly. Even Li Wei’s opponents did not intend to embarrass the matter. This is a major event worth celebrating.

When the discussion was in full swing, Brutim appeared outside the Senate, his face was very anxious, and he said a few words to the civilian security officer guarding the passage. The civilian security officer’s expression also changed drastically, immediately. Take him into the Senate.

“Everyone, we have just received a very important news. I think it is necessary to interrupt the Senate meeting.”

A civilian security officer said.

The elders looked at him in surprise, what on earth was enough to interrupt the Senate meeting.

After seeing Brutim, Menmuse’s complexion was a little uncomfortable. Could it be that Katilin’s affairs were exposed?

Looking at the elders, Brutim said loudly, “Dear consul, dear elders. I believe many veterans know my name and identity. My name is Brutim, my friend. I just told me a very important news. The Katilin belt is leading four legions to march at full speed to Rome, and it is expected that they will be able to reach Rome the day after tomorrow.”

Hearing this, the elders couldn’t help being shocked.

“How is this possible? It shouldn’t be a fake.”

“Is he crazy?”

“…”

“Absurd! You are just a tainted Roman citizen. How could you know this kind of thing? I think you are a nonsense. I suggest that he be detained for serious interrogation. Who instructed him to do this?”

Menmuse said coldly.

Brutim looked at him angrily.

This **** guy! Doesn’t he know how important the things he said are? Or are they all in the same group?

Thinking of this, Brutim couldn’t help but feel horrified.

This is really very possible. Menmuse and Katilin have been walking very close recently.

“Swear in the name of the true god, I promise that everything I say is true. If anything is false, I am willing to fall into **** and be tortured forever.”

Brutim said vowedly.

The elders talked a lot, and they didn’t know what to do for a while, but Cicero, Getta and the others still believed him, because they all knew his identity.

This makes them all serious, and they will be able to reach Rome the day after tomorrow, which is really terrible.

“Everyone, I think we have to discuss this matter seriously and put the issue on Britain on hold for the time being.”

Cicero said with a serious face, “Elder Catullus, do you have any comments?”

“I think we should send an envoy to investigate this matter.”

Catullus said.

“Elder Dorabella, what do you mean?”

“I agree with the opinion of the veteran of Catullus. In addition, I think there should be an emergency mobilization to conscript the army to deal with this matter.”

Dorabella said.

“I object. It is a fuss to recruit a large army before things are clear. Now we are paying for more than 30 legions in Britain and Parthia. There are also a large number of auxiliary soldiers. It is too much for you. , I think the investigation is clear and conscript again.”

Menmuse said.

“Men Muse, please keep quiet, now it’s the discussion session.”

Cicero said coldly.

Not only him, but even Getta and others have discovered the strangeness of Menmuse. If this is Menmuse and their support, the consequences will be terrible.

“Well then.”

Menmuse said.

So they started the discussion, and to their surprise, a veteran who had always been neutral started a eloquent speech, and he continued to speak for more than 20 minutes without stopping.

For his behavior, Cicero and others were very angry.

“Elder Mennelius, you said too long. You know that the matter is urgent, we must make a decision today.”

Cicero said.

“Consultant Cicero, I think the situation is urgent, but it is more important to find out the truth of the matter. I firmly believe in the character of Cattilin, and I understand him. He is a man with a sense of justice and can never betray Rome. Although he has a contradiction with a very powerful person, I don’t think he should be so slanderous.”

The elder said righteously.

“It makes sense.”

“Isn’t this someone slandering? How could he form 4 legions so quickly?”

“…”

Some elders started talking.

But Cicero and the others were pale.

Who else is that very powerful person besides Li Wei?

Unexpectedly, he would actually get involved with this, it is simply outrageous.

“Elder Mennelius, do you know what you are talking about?”

Cicero said angrily.

“Of course I know what I’m talking about. Some people start to bully people when they become more powerful. Although I think I am a small person, I have to come out and say something fair. If someone sends someone to assassinate him, it’s fine, but I still slander him. Others are too much.”

Mennelius said with disdain.

Hearing this, the atmosphere in the Senate immediately became weird, and someone almost applauded him.

They all knew that Katilin was assassinated several times, and many people were aggrieved by it.

“Everyone, I also think that we should investigate clearly before speaking.”

At this time, another senator stood up and said.

“Yes, I have the same opinion.”

Said another veteran.

“Senior Mennelius, you have spoken for too long. Next, I announce that everyone cannot speak for more than 10 minutes. If there is more than that, they will be expelled from the Senate in the name of violating the order of the Senate.”

Cicero said.

Although Cicero struggled to control the agenda, things went beyond his expectations.

Perhaps inspired by him, many elders tried their best to extend the time to speak, until dark, the Senate still failed to pass a resolution.

As soon as the Senate meeting disbanded, Cicero and other elders immediately flocked to the Vatican. They knew that the matter was serious.

The lights in the Vatican were brightly lit, and Emilia ordered someone to entertain the elders, and then called Getta and other core elders to hold a small-scale closed-door meeting.

Seeing that he had been turned away, Caesar sighed, as expected, he was still not trusted.

In a simple room, not only Emilia attended in person, but also Yulia, Monimee, and Xiao Liwei also appeared here.

After sitting down, Cicero asked anxiously: “Amelia, are these all true? Cattilin really formed 4 legions?”

“Yes, I sent Brutim to it. I thought it would be over, but I didn’t expect him to do this.”

Emilia said with a sad face.

“What can we do? We only have one legion here. I’m afraid it’s not an opponent.”

Cicero said.

“You still see things too simple. Katilin was able to form 4 legions so quickly without being discovered by us. This shows that there are powerful forces behind him. Lei Pida did not do this. There is only one place that can have such a powerful force, and that is Rome.”

Getta said.

“What you said makes sense, I think Menmuse’s performance today is suspicious.”

Serrabio said.

“This matter has nothing to do with them.”

Getta sneered, “Even if we pass the draft resolution, it is very likely that we will not be the opponents of Katilin. Those nobles are deeply rooted in Rome. If we fight in Rome, we will undoubtedly lose.”

“Then what shall we do?”

Emilia asked.

“Katilin and us have a deep hatred, and he will definitely come to us for revenge, so I think that except for Cicero, all go to Dragon City, where is our territory. The decisive battle in Rome is too dangerous, here There are too many hidden enemies, you never know when they will stab them behind, and at the same time we should recruit all the crusaders to Dragon City.”

Gaeta said.

Hearing this, Cicero’s face changed.

He is the consul of Rome, and indeed he should not leave Rome at will.

“Do you really want this?”

Cicero said with a bitter face, wouldn’t it hurt for you to leave me alone?

“I agree with Getta’s opinion. I think that this matter should be notified to the Pope as soon as possible. I suspect that this matter is directed at the Pope and the Holy Church.”

Serrabio said, and at the same time gave Cicero a pitying look, the archon’s timing was too bad.

“What’s your opinion?”

Emilia said to Monimi and others.

“This…I listen to you.”

Yulia has six gods without a master.

“I also agree with Getta’s opinion. I suspect that they came for God-given weapons. God-given weapons are all produced in Dragon City. I think he will definitely attack Dragon City.”

Monimi said.

God-given weapons?

The expressions of Geeta and others have changed slightly. Recently, the god-given weapon is really too popular. It has not only become a sharp weapon for Li Wei to attack the city, but also a sharp weapon for the holy religion to harvest faith. I don’t know how many people covet the god-given weapon. Endless.

“You are very likely. If this is the case, we have to prepare for a war, and the tenant farmers and dependents may also need to be mobilized.”

Gaeta said.

“We can also mobilize some believers.”

Cicero said.

“Not for the time being, unless Katilin takes the initiative to deal with Shengjiao, I don’t think we should mobilize believers.”

Serrabio said.

After listening to several people’s discussion, Emilia nodded repeatedly, and finally made a decision to withdraw to Dragon City tomorrow and mobilize all the dependents and a large number of tenant farmers. As for the believers, they will not be mobilized for the time being.

Emilia said: “In this case, we will withdraw to Dragon City tomorrow and notify all the elders.”

“The sooner the better.”

Getta emphasized.

“Don’t worry, I will prepare the soldiers tonight.”

Emilia said.

After informing all the elders, those elders were in an uproar.

Some people were very excited, but most expressed obedience.

They have all experienced the brutal cleansing of Rome and understand that this kind of thing is no joke.

So the next day, a large number of elders left Rome with the whole family.

In addition to a legion stationed in Rome, there were also a large number of Roman Crusaders.

Many Roman citizens also learned of the news, and left Rome one after another in fear.

For a while, the city gates of Rome were blocked by the citizens who were about to leave.

“Asshole, why did they leave Rome just now.”

Menmuse yelled. He also hoped that Emilia and the others would stay in Rome and catch them all at once. This was terrible, so he quickly called his cronies and notified Cattilin of the news.

“What does Menmuse mean?”

Katilin asked.

“The master means that you first send the cavalry to slow their speed, and then the infantry marches at full speed and wipe them out before they return to Dragon City. Once they return to Dragon City then things will be troublesome.”

Menmuse’s confidant said.

“I see, is it useful to just send out the cavalry?”

Katilin said with a smile.

“This one……”

The confidant was speechless, and he was not good at military affairs.

“I only have more than a thousand cavalry, and the enemy’s cavalry has at least five hundred, plus a legion of enemies and a large number of crusaders, it is impossible to slow the enemy’s speed.

Katilin said.

He was not a rookie like Menmuse who had never fought, he was already a lieutenant when Sura and Capo fought.

“Then how should I reply to the master?”

Said the cronies.

“You can just reply with the original words. By the way, it’s better to open the gates of Rome. I don’t want any bloodshed to happen.”

Katilin said.

“Well then.”

The messenger said, and then he had no choice but to leave here.

Katilin snorted coldly. He had already noticed the minds of Menmuse and the others, but what could he do?

He and Li Wei and the others have a deep hatred, and he has no worries and is alone.

Since Li Wei dared to treat him this way, he would bite him fiercely to let him know the fate of offending him Katilin.

A day later, Katilin led an army finally rushed to Rome.

At this time the gates of Rome were closed tightly, and Katilin smiled disdainfully.

He stepped forward and said loudly: “I am the former consul Katilin, the Roman ruler appointed by the gods. Now I order you to open the gates.”

Above the city wall, Cicero looked at the army under the city with a look of horror. Katilin actually led the army here. What can I do?

I had known that he also ran away!
