Rome.

The main hall surrounded by marble pillars was transparent around, and the early autumn sun shone in lazy light. The maid dragged her white robe and walked by the heroic guards. The woman's words continued to ring here.

"...What army are you soldiers? Come down, I will ask the clerk to investigate. It is said that His Majesty is seriously injured and is waiting for rescue in Constantine. Then you! The warrior of Rome, are you sent back by His Majesty? Or are you a coward who escaped at the last minute?"

After crossing the first stone staircase, a powerful female voice echoed on the main hall of the government. Julia Dom raised her chin and looked down at the soldiers kneeling below. She was Severu's wife and ignored the rumors outside. However, as time went by, the matter spread throughout the streets and alleys. Aristocrats of all sizes and even the Senate sent people to the palace to inquire about this matter. She shirked back. After all, if there was another trouble in the front and the rear, when Severu came back, many people would suffer.

Below, the soldier had his face down, he was a soldier, without too many curves of words.

"It is true that Anatolia suffered a great defeat. His Majesty cut his arm. Now the Selius people are stepping up their offensive opposite the sea. There is only one Constantine who has no way to resist their attack. Because of the defeat in the war, the morale of the various legions is also very bad. Therefore, His Majesty sent me back, hoping to bring the great prince to the front line and cheer up the morale of the army."

As his voice fell, the guards of the surrounding palace could not help but look over. In silence, the woman sitting on the side of the throne frowned. Letting the prince contact the army was already a clear signal, but letting a boy who had just been sixteen to go to the front line also bear huge risks. While thinking, the queen was swaying and her eyes flashed with complexity: "You go down, I will discuss with the Senate..."

"But your Majesty can't wait... The Selius people are already preparing siege equipment, and they will soon cross..."

"Guard! Take him down!"

The struggling figure was raised left and right by the soldiers coming over and dragged it out of here. Julia got up and quickly turned to the back hall, crossed the long pillar-eaves corridor, and arrived at a garden with a pool. A beautiful woman there was taking care of the flowers that were about to wither. When she heard the footsteps, she turned her head and smiled on her face: "Why are sister here?"

"The soldiers who came back from the front brought news of His Majesty's request for help. He asked Karakara to go to Constantine to boost the morale of the army." The situation was a bit serious, and Julia directly told the whole story to her sister Julia Misa, opposite her.

The woman named Julia's mouth slightly raised and she pulled off a withered petal: "This is a good thing. Wouldn't your son Karakala inherit the throne successfully? Or are you more worried that once the war does not improve over there, our eldest prince will stay there forever."

"What's your solution? Julia."

The beautiful woman moved closer to the queen and whispered softly in her ear. The two then looked at each other and laughed. On the afternoon of the same day, Julia walked into the Senate in the name of the queen and discussed sending troops to rescue Constantine, but in addition, she also clearly said: "Your Majesty is seriously injured, and the reinforcements have passed away on the way. One country is fighting with another country. The emperor must be in charge of the overall situation. Caracala my son, Severu's eldest son, he has the right and obligation to work for this country for the rest of his life!"

The words were clear, but there were also oppositions. Severu had two sons. Although the Senate was not under the emperor, he also chose to support the party. However, during the dispute, soldiers came in from outside and whispered to the commander of the Imperial Guards. The latter's face suddenly changed and he walked over with a heavy blow.

"Queen, and everyone, just now, news came from the south of Rome that a Selius army appeared on our southern coastline. They defeated two armies along the way, burned three harbors, and are now coming toward the city of Rome..."

at the same time.

Scorched earth spread, and the remaining flames were burnt wood floating into the sky. The soldiers fixed their shields and rushed across the bloodline with their swords. They flew over the spears and threw the spears opposite to the ground. The knife frantically cut the other person's face into nothing. In front of them, there were enemies swarming in. When they slashed at his head, an arrow struck the head of the Jiangdong soldiers and shot the rushing Romans to the ground.

On the back of the galloping horse, the cloak was waving, and under the red tassel and iron helmet, the veteran with white beards kept shooting at the Romans rushing around with bows and arrows. The bowstrings were shaking, one, two, four... The quiver was empty, and he took out the phoenix-mouthed knife hanging on the side of the horse, and chopped off the head of a centurion with a horizontal mane helmet in front of him, and lifted it into the sky.

"The people of the Great Qin Dynasty! Can you recognize the veterans of the Great Han Dynasty?" He shouted loudly.

The soldiers of Jingzhou around were also rushing up, forming a formation of guns, or pulling a crossbow to shoot. In front, more and more Romans gathered to counterattack here, and were then repelled by spears and arrows. The human corpses were pushed onto the front line. Next to them, a team of two thousand cavalry teams spread out at lightning and detoured. The generals at the forefront waved a large gun and smashed them hard on the shield. The cracks in the spider web spread rapidly, and then exploded with a bang. The people behind the shield flew backwards and crashed into the crowd. The entire formation fell a little in an instant.

And the next second, the iron cavalry chiseled into it like a dragon, dragging out a river of blood.

On this day, the Han army suddenly came from the sea and caught the Romans on the south bank of the Italian Peninsula off guard. A large number of defeats were defeated towards the city of Rome like a tide. Some people organized resistance, and were defeated again and retreated. At the end of September, Caracala, who was in Rome, ascended the throne at the age of sixteen, and then launched a counterattack in the south. The matter of north rescue was temporarily shelved, or selectively forgotten.

"We will first deal with the abuse of the Selius people near Rome, so that Constantine can be rescued." On his still tender face, the new Roman emperor named Caracala showed a little maturity.

************

In mid-October, the sky was gloomy.

It was hard to see the sun in the morning, and the Western Expedition Army was in a state of war. The craftsman's camp repaired the weapons and built the weapons. The soldiers who had been recuperating for a long time appeared again on the field with their war horses. The originally lively military camp gradually became solemn. The caravans traveling between the roads seemed to have received orders and disappeared on that day.

Gongsun Zhi brushed the blade and slowly inserted it into the seven-star scabbard. He led his son next to him out of the camp. Dian Weila came to war horses, and Li Ke brought the cloak to tie it: "Chief, all the generals are ready."

"Well, it's been long enough, so we can't wait any longer. We'll fight down the 230,000 people of the Qin Dynasty. We can't stop just because of a trench." He raised his hand, and the guards and archers around him turned over the horses. In the wind, they clasped their hands into fists and pressed them forward: "...... Blow the wolf howls, set off."

Wow!

Wow

The howling of the wolf drifted away, and the horn of war was also blowing. In the camp with the "Bian" flag, in the largest tent, the candlelight had just been extinguished, and the blue smoke was lingering. The man kneeling behind the desk had gray hair on his temples. When he heard the horn sound, he slowly opened his eyes, as if lightning flashed through his eyes.

Outside the tent, the iron armor collided, and Gao Shun walked in with an iron helmet and strode in: "Wen Hou, we're leaving!"

"Um!"

The mighty figure responded lightly, and he hung in his hand beside him, the position of Zhang Yang, a spiritual position. The footsteps retreated, and Lu Bu slowly stood up and put the spiritual position. "Uncle Zhi, I will show you what the territory of the Qin people is like." He turned around, reached out and took the Fangtian Painted Ridge on the frame, and strode out.

Outside, the Bingzhou cavalry looked over on the horse's back. The golden crown was tied with hair, the beast's face swallowed the head and the chain armor reflected everyone's sight. Lu Bu turned over and raised his halberd and raised his halberd. On his tall body, there was the heroic uniqueness of the northern man: "Let's go and see what Rome is like, do you want to see?"

"I wish to be the pioneer of Wen Hou!"

With countless sounds, the earth started to move. The autumn wind blew yellow all things, and the withered and hard hay was then thrust by horse hooves. The armored cavalry sped up and rushed out of the gate and began to gather in the field. Lu Bu, who was behind, walked slowly at the speed, looked at the gloomy sky, turned his head, and Gao Shun, who was not far away, rode his horse closer.

"Where is Lingqi?"

"I've notified it, I should be back."

In the camp outside the rear, vendors gathered and were gathering together. The curly red rabbit horse slowly followed a man and a woman in front of him. The sound of the horns spewed out thick air from time to time, and shook her hooves, as if reminding her that it was time to leave.

"........hesitantly, say what to say, I'm leaving!" The girl widened her eyes, and the young man standing side by side turned red instead, and took out a box from his arms in a slight sense of grimness, "This... this is what I bought."

The box was opened, and there was a delicate ring of color quietly placed inside, surrounded by a circle of extremely small red gems, which looked very beautiful.

"I asked you to come out, just want to send it to you..."

"I know, I know! I'm leaving." Lu Lingqi reached out and grabbed the ring in the young man's hand, lowered her head and walked back on the horse. When she turned the direction, she glared back fiercely: "...Don't look at me like this!"

"No...I haven't...I think so..."

"I can't think about it"

With Lu Xun's "Ah.", the curly red rabbit squirted a mouthful of saliva, spread its hooves and ran away. The red cloak rolled up, and under the red feather, the girl finally let out a sigh: "Uncle Gao said that he would not be bullied in the future... It seems that Uncle Gao has not gotten married yet... How did he know?"

He turned his head slightly and looked back quietly. The figure was getting farther and farther behind, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up, and he couldn't help but smile.

"...I'm such a fool to stand there."

Afterwards, return to the army.

....

While countless troops were advancing, Constantine, who was far away on the other side of the trench, was lying on a stretcher, watching the withering scene in the withered garden, and message from Rome was heard in his ears.

At one moment, he suddenly stood up from the stretcher, grabbed the letter from the official's hand and threw it on the ground, stomped his feet hard, and his weak body was shaking after moving violently. He pushed away the maids who came to help him.

"......I asked him to come to Constantine to fight. As my son, it was his responsibility... How could the Selius run to Italy, how could it run to the city of Rome.... He was lying to me... He knew I was going to die... so he took over the throne in Rome first..."

With his footsteps floating, he staggered through the flowerbed. The guards around him hurriedly followed. The old man with broken arms looked at a withered and hanging flower pole, and his blue lips trembled: "My son became the emperor in Rome...what am I?"

puff

A mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out from his lips, and his whole body shook instantly. In the voice of the guard "Your Majesty!", he slowly turned around, opened his mouth, exposed his blood-stained teeth, and looked at the gloomy Tianyun, and his eyes gradually faded away.

"I curse you... and those who betray me."

The sound stopped abruptly, and the body fell back with a bang. During the whole life, he wrote a sentence among the withered flowerbed.
