It was a huge crowd with more than 100,000 people.
Sarvis rode his horse among the mighty cavalry, staring ahead like a hawk.
As a general of the Roman servant army, Salvis' ability may not be much, but he definitely knows what civilization is and what it means to adapt to the times.
When Rome was strong, he was the Romans' most loyal lackey, but now, when Rome is in chaos, he is the Palmyra people's most loyal thug.
What, you said becoming king?
No, Sarvis never wanted to be king.
As a civilized man, Sarvis was well aware of the history of Rome, the more distant history of Greece, and the history of Egypt.
The ancient Egyptian pharaohs, Greek kings, and even the consuls who later ruled Rome, etc., these people were all once kings, but who of them still exists now?
Even if it is Rome, even if its name is still Rome, the people who really rule this land now have little to do with those people back then.
Thrones may come and go, but what remains constant is the victor's followers.
This is a truth that Salvis understood with great wisdom. Of course, what this middle-aged general did not know was that in the east, there was a group of existences with the same ideas as him, called the Aristocratic Family.
When Rome was about to be in civil strife, Sarvis made the same choice as those aristocratic families in the East. He watched Rome slowly collapse and just guarded his position.
Ignore the old king, welcome the new king, and even divide the family into different new kings. No matter which king eventually rises, his family will continue.
Before the overall situation of Rome is clear, Sarvis will not make any choice. However, one thing is that he can already make a choice, that is, any choice that belongs to the original Roman emperor who has now passed away.
The power is enough to crush it directly.
Letia is one of them.
More than 100,000 cavalry finally arrived in front of Ling Tian's team.
There were more than 100,000 people on both sides. However, Salvis looked at the team on the opposite side and showed a disdainful smile.
In this land, the Romans had a habit of being tyrannical. Even Parthia, which claimed to be confronting Rome in the south, was actually more of an end of Roman expansion than Parthia actually blocking Rome.
As for the cavalry that looked like the legendary Eastern Kingdom brought back by the envoys who went to the East back then, the most praise the envoys gave to the Eastern Kingdom was for their silks and utensils, not their military force.
Even if that kingdom had some military force, how could it be an opponent of Rome? Not to mention that there were only tens of thousands of cavalry from that kingdom, and the rest looked like a group of slaves.
"Don't do it, don't do it yet..."
Laetia looked at Salvis in the distance and shouted anxiously towards Ling Tian and others. Then the woman mounted her horse and rushed towards Salvis quickly.
"Salvis, they are troops from the Eastern Empire. They can help us and stabilize the emperor..."
Laetia shouted loudly.
This Salvis has now submitted to the people of Palmyra, but in fact Salvis himself is not a Palmyraite.
Strictly speaking, he is a Roman.
In hundreds of years, Rome has indeed conquered too many races. On this land, up to now, regardless of their respective basic races, if they are to the outside world, they can probably be called Romans.
Of course, for the same Romans, the difference between citizens and non-citizens was huge.
Really speaking, citizens were considered Romans recognized by the law and lived within the city, while others who lived outside the city were not recognized by the law.
The topic has gone too far. In short, Letia feels that Salvis can still be saved.
"Shut up, you Baguda..."
In the distance, Salvis roared loudly as he watched Laetia running towards her.
The original emperor, what a joke, tell him about the original emperor at this time. If those powerful beings who are now preparing to become kings all over the world hear these words and misunderstand him, wouldn't it be a disaster for him?
Salvis looked at Letia coldly.
He and Laetia once belonged to the Roman emperor's generals, but their births were different.
Even though Sarvis was a member of a tribe or small country that was once conquered by Rome and then became a Roman, Rhetia was a descendant of gladiators.
It was after a certain Roman emperor decided to recruit soldiers so that gladiators could become soldiers. The descendants of gladiators who were lucky enough to become soldiers gradually became soldiers.
In essence, there is no difference between Salvis and Laetia now.
However, it is not just the Han people who care about family background. In fact, Westerners care about family background just as much as the Han people.
An aristocrat, even a declining aristocrat, is also called an aristocrat in the West. This is just like the Han people, who had a Ming Dynasty in their ancestors, and when future generations showed it off, people would be surprised and say, "So-and-so is actually that person."
It's a truth for future generations.
And if the status of the ancestor is not good, the impact on the officialdom will be even greater.
"Salvis, do you have a problem with Bagoda, or do you have a problem with the emperor who recruited Baguda into the army..."
Letia looked at Sarvis angrily.
As a descendant of Bagoda, Leidia has extremely fanatical admiration for the emperor who recruited Baguda into the army. In fact, people who have never experienced slave society would never imagine how fanatical those slaves were for the emperor who abolished slavery.
Respect and worship.
Of course, the Roman emperor who recruited Bagoda did not abolish slavery. In addition, Rome at this time was still a slave country. Compared with the time when the Han people entered the feudal era, Rome was more than a few hundred years later.
However, the more this kind of slavery society exists, for people of Laetia's background, the emperor who gives these marginalized groups further opportunities becomes more worthy of admiration.
This is why Laetia remained loyal to the emperor even though she knew clearly that Rome was on the verge of collapse.
Because the ancestors of the emperor she was loyal to gave her ancestors the opportunity to escape from the life of maggots at the bottom of society, and she was also more afraid that if another emperor, or in other words, another force came to rule Rome, those of them who were born in Bagoda would once again
Being stepped into the mud.
There is no doubt that Roman law has not changed from the beginning to the present.
In fact, the emperor who rules Rome now, even the emperor to whom Laetia is loyal, may not be the original Romans. The original Rome was just a small country. Ninety-nine percent of the land and race of the current Rome are from later generations.
The trophies of the defeated countries that were annexed one by one.
"Retia, Commodus has passed away, and even his successor has passed away. There is more than one emperor in Rome now... So, who else do you want to devote your loyalty to..."
A cold smile appeared on Salvis's face, and he looked at Laetia.
As a smart man, Sarvis sent the elites of his family to those who were kings. How could he not go? It was not because there was more than one emperor in Rome.
After the death of Commodus, the situation in Rome can be expressed by a saying from the Tang Dynasty in the Central Plains: He who has strong soldiers and horses will be king.
The emperor is dead...
The emperor's successor also died...
Laetia sat on the horse dully. The emperor she knew only had one son. If the emperor and his successor died, then there would be no successor to the royal family to which she was loyal.
Where should she go...
Laetia was stunned for a moment.
"Raetia, I don't know what will happen to Bagoda in the future. If you have nowhere to go, just stay here. The people of Palmyra are not betraying Rome, they just want to protect themselves. Can you imagine the same time?
How does it feel to receive letters from several people claiming to be Roman emperors requesting to send troops to fight..."
Salvis looked at Laetia's dull expression and suddenly felt something in his heart.
The reason why Laetia was able to become Commodus's general as a woman was not because of her beauty and birth, but because she indeed had considerable strength and commanding ability.
If he can take Laetia under his wing, not only will he get a beautiful woman, but he will also have an excellent helper.
"Fengxian, do you dare to sacrifice for the big man..."
While Salvis was speaking, in the distance, Xi Zhicai stood up with difficulty and came to Lu Bu's side and spoke.
This man was out of breath when he spoke, and it seemed that he would die completely in the next second. However, his tone was extremely heavy and serious.
This heaviness and seriousness made Lu Bu look serious.
"Lu Bu is not afraid of death..."
A low voice came out of the tiger's mouth.
"If you take in Laetia, it's best to leave her a child..."
Xi Zhicai spoke in an extremely serious tone that made Lu Bu and Ling Tian couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
Taking in Laetia was a joke that everyone and Lu Bu often made along the way. It was nothing, but keeping a child was something that no one could understand.
"Laitia has the aura of a hidden dragon in her body. If there are no accidents, hundreds of years from now, there will be people like Chen Sheng and Wu Guang among Laetia's descendants..."
Xi Zhicai spoke slowly, and Lu Bu, Ling Tian and others were slightly startled by this sentence.
Ling Tian was not even familiar with Chinese history, and of course he was even more confused about Roman history. Therefore, he did not know that Gaul, where Laetia was born, indeed broke out the most violent movement in Roman history a few hundred years later, directly becoming
The reasons for the demise of the Roman Empire were similar to the Anshi Rebellion during the Tang Dynasty.
"This hidden dragon energy is not much. Although it originally caused a big impact, it cannot become a climate. However, I can completely stimulate this energy. This requires a child, a child who is strong enough. If Fengxian is willing,
Not only can we absorb enough dragon energy, but we can also give Fengxian and Laetia's children the opportunity to sit in the position of the Roman Emperor..."
Xi Zhicai spoke breathlessly.
Dahan, Rome, Parthia, Kushan...
Of the four empires, the last two are just numbers, but only the first two are truly powerful.
However, even the two who made up the numbers were too far away from the Central Plains and could not be affected by the Kyushu Formation. Therefore, this was also the reason why Xi Zhicai supported the expedition to Rome.
Because in this way they can obtain dragon energy to repair the Kyushu formation.
However, even if their team was strong enough, neither Xi Zhicai, Lu Bu, nor Ling Tian thought of directly destroying Guishang and An'xi.
The Han Dynasty in its heyday could do this kind of thing, but their army of tens of thousands could never do it.
Even if they could kill seven in and seven out, they would still be at the level of Attila a few hundred years later.
That's why Xi Zhicai said this at this time.
Lu Bu frowned slightly. With his character, he was absolutely unwilling to do such a thing. Firstly, he valued feelings, and Laetia's feelings for him made him not want to take advantage of her. Secondly, he
He is a proud person and doesn't like this kind of conspiracy. The most important thing is that according to Xi Zhicai's words, his children have to stay here.
However, Lu Bu had not yet spoken to object. Suddenly, he saw Xi Zhicai's face.
Pale, pale with a hint of flushing.
Seeing this expression, Lu Bu's eyes immediately changed again. As a knight-errant, Lu Bu was very familiar with everything before death. He could see that this was a sign that Xi Zhicai was on the verge of death and was about to return to his former glory.
"Poor..."
Lu Bu's expression changed, and his tone was slightly trembling as he spoke.
"My road is coming to an end, but it's not enough to repair the dragon energy of the Nine Provinces Formation. This may be my last effort for the big man. Fengxian, don't blame me for setting my sights on you. In fact, if I can
I want to use Ling Tian more. Compared with you, he is more suitable to be the person who protects the big man, but who made Laitia fall in love with you..."
Xi Zhicai looked at Lu Bu's expression and laughed. He knew that Lv Bu could see that he was not going to die soon, and Xi Zhicai, who had long been familiar with Lu Bu's character, spoke directly without any hesitation.
"You know, if a certain family dislikes your behavior the most..."
Lu Bu's voice turned cold.
"Do you need me to stay here and let you cast spells..."
However, before anyone else could guess whether Lu Bu was going to fall out, the tiger's voice sounded again.
On horseback, Lu Bu looked indifferently into the distance, his hand straightened, and a dark painted halberd instantly appeared in his hand.
"No, just go ahead and do whatever Fengxian wants. In fact, I've already done it. All Fengxian has to do is leave a child for Laetia, hahahaha..."
Xi Zhicai saw Lu Bu suddenly showing a hint of cunning, and laughed while speaking.
"Boring..."
Lu Bu snorted coldly and suddenly galloped forward.
"Ledia, ask him if he might be able to help your tribe and help Ba Gundam continue to gain further opportunities..."
Riding horses, swooping, and roaring sounds came out. With Lu Bu's strength, even Laetia and Salvis could not hear the sounds on the other side, but Lu Bu could clearly hear the conversation on the other side.
.
In a word, Salvis and Laetia's expressions changed at the same time.
They all know that this is impossible. Bagoda is a gladiator, and the identity of a gladiator is so embarrassing. Just think about Spartacus and you will know how many emperors can have a good impression of a group of gladiators who have rebelled.
