Roman Slave Owner

Chapter 88 protest

Facing Nobanus’s anger, the soldiers were silent and afraid to speak at all.

“Li Wei! He must have done something, do you want me to make a fool of yourself? Do you think I really can’t get food?”

Nobanus said angrily.

He just doesn’t want to tear his face with Capua’s nobles, in that case, don’t blame him for being rude.

Under the order of Nobanus, some officers left the mansion and went to the military camp outside the city, mobilizing a large number of soldiers into the city.

“What are you doing? Do you know whose shop this is? This is the shop of the veteran of Capua!”

In a food store, a large number of Roman soldiers rushed into it, ignoring the obstruction of the man and the shopkeeper, and carried a bottle of food and left.

“According to the order of the Roman consul Nobanus, all grain shops in Capua will be used to provide relief to the hungry. Rome will compensate the original price for the grain, but it will take a few days.”

A centurion showed an order from Nobanus to the shopkeeper.

“Original price compensation?”

Hearing this, the shopkeeper’s mood improved a lot.

“Yes, just wait for a while.”

said the centurion.

“how long?”

“I don’t know this, you can ask the consul.”

Seeing that the matter is irretrievable, the shopkeeper can only promptly report the matter to the owner and ask the owner to call the shots.

Nobanus’s levy storm quickly swept across Capua, all grain shops were opened, and even some secret warehouses were found.

A large amount of grain was expropriated by Nobanus, but fortunately, Nobanus slapped a white bar, and coupled with the majesty of the consul, this matter also proceeded quite smoothly.

Capua’s nobles and knights are not eating dry food, and quickly united to ask Nobanus when they can get the money.

Nobanus agreed very readily to this, saying that he had already reported to Rome, and it should not take more than a month.

These nobles and knights are dubious. The war is coming, and the money in various places is the same as running water. It can really pay back the money in a month, which is hundreds of thousands of dinars.

Knowing this situation, Li Wei was speechless for a while.

He knew that Kapuya’s nobles and knights are likely to be pitted, and Sura will probably be able to hit Kapuya in a month.

With his super inner response, Kapuya must be in Sura’s pocket.

Then how could Nobanus pay back the money, and Sura was thankful for not asking them to settle the bills, and wanted to pay back the money, it was purely a dream.

“Master, the archon’s messenger, Admiral Rustis of Campania, beg to see you.”

At this time, Yulia said softly.

“Really, let him in.”

Li Wei said, he wanted to see what Rustis wanted to say.

Soon Rustis walked in with a smile on his face, “Dear Knight Levy, I have brought the good news of the Archon. Your Excellency is magnanimous. He believes that the enemy is now and we should work together to deal with the enemy. I hope that both sides can Reconciled.”

“Oh, your consul is so good to talk.”

Li Wei said with a smile.

As for the psychology, he deprived him of his military power so decisively before, I really thought that such a little kind words would win his trust.

“Yes, your consul has agreed to your proposal and decided to retain the command of one of your corps, and you can station that corps in Kapuya.”

Rustis said with a smile on his face.

“Although your conditions are very good, it is a pity that you are late.”

Li Wei said with regret.

“what do you mean?”

Rustis said suspiciously.

“I have already protested to the Roman Senate, and hope that the Roman Senate can send someone to mediate the dispute between the two parties.”

Li Wei said with a smile.

Although I don’t know what medicine is sold in the Nobanus gourd, it’s better to follow my own plan.

Rustis was taken aback, “How can such a little thing alarm the Roman Senate?”

“I am afraid that the Archon will attack Dragon City, so I sent a quick horse the day before yesterday. I am afraid it is too late to chase after him.”

Li Wei said.

You’re scared?

Are you scared?

To be honest, Rustis had grown up so much, he had never seen such a reckless Li Wei.

We withdrew at every turn. You must know that this was wartime. Even if Nobanus killed Li Wei, Li Wei didn’t make sense.

“Okay… I will tell the consul and I will leave.”

Rustis felt that things were beyond his control.

“No delivery.”

Li Wei is also too lazy to be polite, and he has no affection for this person who has been mingling with the consul.

“What did you say, he said he sent someone to the Roman Senate to request mediation.”

After listening to Rustis, Nobanus was also taken aback.

“Yes, he said he was afraid of you attacking Dragon City, so he sent a quick horse to Rome the day before yesterday.”

Rustis said.

Do you use this?

is not a trivial matter, do you need to go to the Senate to file a complaint?

Nobanus felt mad for a while, he didn’t need to think about what kind of ridicule and doubt this news would cause once it reached Rome.

The enemy hadn’t appeared yet, so he forced his three legions back.

Incompetence and greed will become synonymous with him.

Will he even become the unlucky ghost killed by his own like Qin Na?

“You didn’t tell him to send someone to chase people back. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com”

Nobanus said angrily.

“This one…”

Rustis Qiqi Ai Ai could not speak, he and Li Wei had always had a bad relationship, so he didn’t mention it.

And the fast horse that had been dispatched the day before yesterday, how can he chase it back now?

“What a waste!”

Nobanus couldn’t help cursing.

Rustis flushed with scolding, but he dared not refute it.

“You go again, discuss with him, and let him chase the person back. In the worst case, you have to reach a settlement with him before the messenger from the Roman Senate arrives.”

Nobanus said.

He felt a headache. He was here to attack Sura, but now he is arguing with Li Wei.

“Yes.”

The tragic Rustis can only act as this unwelcome messenger.

Of course Livi would not agree to Nobanus’ request, he insisted on waiting for the Roman messenger to arrive.

What he wants is to delay time. When the situation becomes worse and the chips in Nobanus’s hand are reduced further, he has to agree to all his demands.

So Rustis was like a ball being kicked by both sides, completely becoming Nobanus’ punching bag.

What Nobanus didn’t know was that Levy’s fast horse was actually not fast. They walked slowly for ten days before they walked to Rome, and then submitted their letter of protest to the Roman Senate, depriving Nobanus of themselves. The behavior of the military power carried out a fiercely worded protest.

The Roman Senate didn’t dare to neglect this matter. In any case, Li Wei was also a giant with three legions.

How did Nobanus annoy him, but they also understood what Nobanus thought.
