Chapter 90
Chapter 89 compromise
Let a kid who was just seventeen years old command the three legions, even if they were not at ease.
But your technique is too rough, so you can’t be gentle.
So the Roman Senate decided to send a delegation to persuade the two parties.
But they haven’t set off yet, and terrible news came one after another.
Metelus, the acting consul, led two legions to Africa and took refuge in Sura.
Pompeo led three legions to kill officers and rebel, and he was advancing towards Brindisi, trying to rendezvous with Sura.
Upon hearing this news, the Roman Senate did not dare to neglect it, and quickly dispatched Levy’s old friend Purker to Capua to mediate the dispute between Levy and Nobanus.
And Li Wei also issued a statement in time, expressing strong condemnation of Mettrus and Pompeo’s betrayal of Rome.
Facing Li Wei’s statement, the Senate was full of admiration.
“I am really humble, honorable Archon. I was indeed too impulsive before. I hope you can forgive my mistakes.”
Li Wei said sincerely.
Pulker’s face is full of smiles, who said Li Weijie is rebellious, do I think he is a good comrade?
It used to be just young and ignorant.
“Your Excellency, you see Li Wei also Daoqian. Now that the enemy is now, I don’t think you can take a step back and reconcile here.”
Pulker said.
At this time, Nobanus’s eyes were full of bloodshot eyes. Facing Pompeo’s rebellion, he sent a legion, and Scipio sent two legions to attack, but they were all defeated. Pompeo and Sura successfully merged.
Sura originally had five Roman legions, 6000 cavalry and one Greek legion, plus two legions of Metluth and three legions of Pompey, so there were 11 legions and nearly 9,000 cavalry. , Which made Nobanus a lot of pressure.
But he still looked at Li Wei suspiciously. After he came to Capua, he was pitted by Li Wei.
To say that Li Wei repented that he didn’t believe it, maybe he was playing some conspiracy.
Nobanus thought, but the opinion of the Senate still needs to be considered.
In addition to the defeat of a legion by Pompey, he really has no face to be **** the Senate.
“I had something wrong before. Now the enemy is now, let us unite sincerely and fight Sula together.”
Nobanus stretched out his hands.
The two of them held their hands tightly together, but only two of them would understand how united they are.
In the next negotiation, the differences between the two were exposed.
“I also have to master at least one legion. This is my bottom line. I have sugar recipes and various alcohol recipes. That legion must protect my property.”
Li Wei couldn’t help snarling.
“Well, well, you can station a legion in Kapuya, and that legion can also be under your command. Your other two legions must be handed over to me. And Kapuya’s city defense affairs must be handed over to Krilyus, you Must obey Krilyus’ orders.”
Nobanus said.
Li Wei looked at him fiercely, this guy is really incompetent, he just doesn’t believe him at all, and Nobanus glared back at him unceremoniously.
It’s pretty good for your little boy to give you a legion. What do you want?
“Okay, you don’t have to do this. Do you take a step back?”
Pulker played the role of peacemaker again.
“The two legions can be handed over to you, but the overall organization remains the same, the officers remain the same, and the lieutenant will be appointed by me.”
Li Wei said.
“I don’t think Li Wei’s condition is excessive.”
Pulker said.
Nobanus gave Pulker a vicious look. This guy with only money and power in his mind, can’t you think about Rome’s interests?
This guy is suspected of having fornicating Sura, as long as there is a slight possibility of this, then tens of thousands of troops will die without a place to be buried.
“The lieutenant must be appointed by me. This is my bottom line.”
Nobanus said.
“I think this condition is also reasonable.”
Pulker said.
Li Wei gave him a weird look, where are you on earth?
Pulker’s face didn’t change, but he just smiled.
Li Wei pondered for a while. This had a certain impact on his plan, but it was still acceptable.
“Well, I accept your terms. But I hope you don’t use them as cannon fodder, or I won’t let you go.”
“Of course not, I will treat them kindly.”
Nobanus said with a smile.
Li Wei snorted coldly, you are the only one who believes it.
Pulker sighed. The enemy is approaching but the commander is at odds. It seems that this battle is difficult to fight. He should leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.

Pompey finally successfully reunited with Sura, after having 11 legions and nearly 10,000 cavalry.
Sura was divided into two groups, dragging Scipio one way, and coming straight to Capua on the other.
The morning sun is rising, and there is still a ray of red glow in the sky.
The sound of horse hooves broke the silence. A dozen Numidian light cavalry chased a cavalry in front.
As the most famous cavalry in Africa, they played a huge role in the Punic War and caused huge trouble to the Romans.
After the defeat of Hannibal, they became the foreign mercenaries that the Romans liked very much, and followed the Romans to fight in all directions.
The Roman cavalry in front was full of fear, seeing the distance between the two sides getting closer and closer If there were no rescuers, he would be finished.
At this moment, three Roman cavalry appeared in front, riding their horses slowly towards this side.
Seeing this, the cavalry couldn’t help being overjoyed.
“Help! Help! They are Sura’s men!!”
After talking about whether the three cavalrymen are the opponents of so many Numidian cavalry, they rushed towards them.
The three cavalrymen glanced at each other, immediately drew out their short swords, flapped their horses and began to accelerate.
The Numidia Qiya let out a weird roar and rushed forward with their spears.
are really three fools!
The Roman cavalry thought, as long as that person attracts the Numidian cavalry, then he has a chance to escape.
The Roman cavalry and the three cavalry are getting closer and closer, and they will soon pass each other.
There was a hint of joy on the Roman cavalry’s face.
A sharp sword pierced his throat, and a large amount of blood shot away.
how can that be?
The Roman cavalry thought incredulously, and then fell down his horse.
This situation caught the Numidian cavalry a little bit by surprise, they surrounded them one after another, but didn’t do anything.
“I am Hadrianus, ten captain of the Guards of General Sura. Take me to the camp of Lord Sura.”
Said a cavalry headed by .
“Do you have evidence?”
a Numidian cavalry asked in blunt Latin.
“No, I am performing a confidential mission, and my identity cannot be known by anyone.”
Hadrianus said.
The Numidian cavalry communicated with each other, and then led them to the army.
