Ancient Rome: Beginning With The Legionnaire

Chapter 124 Sura's Purpose

Everyone looked around and saw that it was the former consul Puer Hill.

Poole Hill, the real power faction of the Senate, is a typical representative of the nobility.

Didn't expect him to collude with Sura.

"Master Purhill! The Sura family doesn't seem to have any relationship with the Thirteenth Legion!"

The current consul Phillips reminded him very displeased.

The Republic has always had an unwritten rule.

Although the legion is nominally owned by the country, the head of the legion cannot be appointed casually.

The Sura family has never had anything to do with the Thirteenth Legion!

It would be unreasonable to succeed as the head of the Thirteenth Army Corps.

Whether it is the consul or those present, most of the elders will not agree.

This is a red line.

After all, many elder families also support the legion.

The legion that spends a huge amount of money every year is suddenly taken away by others one day, who can bear it.

"I know that according to Roman law! The son of Cateus should inherit the position of commander of the 13th Legion!"

Pursil said loudly to the elders of 743.

The position of head of the legion, inherited from father to son, is very common in the Senate.

Some veteran generals even passed their positions to their sons and entered the Senate.

Thus pulling his son into the Senate.

"Aren't you kidding? Cateus' son is only three years old this year!"

Consul Phillips retorted from the side and said

Although there is such a saying that father dies and sons succeed, it is impossible for the Roman Republic to hand over a legion to a three-year-old child.

This kind of absurd thing, the Senate is absolutely unable to do it.

After all, the Senate still needs the Roman Legion to maintain the rule of the Republic.

Not long ago, Brian sent a sky-high price of 150,000 gold coins.

To the widow of Cateus and his three-year-old son.

This aspect has done enough work.

"That's right! There's no way the Republic could give a regiment to three-year-olds!" (ccdg)

Many elders stood up and accused Poolehill.

"I don't mean that!"

Purcell continued.

"You may give the legion to the wife of Cateus!"

hiss!

The elders present could not help but gasp.

Female army leader.

This is something unheard of.

"Stop messing around! Give a legion to a woman or a child, is there really no one in our Senate?"

Speaker Cassius finally couldn't bear it anymore.

In the Roman Republic, it was impossible for a woman to control a legion at any time.

It has never happened since the founding of Rome.

"We can let the husband of Cateus' wife be the head of the legion!"

Pu'er Hill threw another depth charge.

"Cassilomo is Su Fia's husband!"

Brian, who was standing aside at the moment, looked coldly at Cassirom beside him.

It turned out that was their plan.

And he moved his fingers, if he was outside, he only needed a second to kill Cassirom.

Cassirom also felt the murderous aura beside him.

When Sura told him this plan today, he also felt a little nonsense.

"I will never allow this to happen!"

Before the two consuls could speak, the speaker had already lost his temper.

No matter which group you are in, the older you are, the more stubborn you are.

Especially an old man in his 70s like Cassius.

He could accept that Brian would succeed him as Commander of the Thirteenth Legion.

Because Brian himself is the deputy head of the army, and has been supporting the army for so many years.

After the death of Cateus, Brian inherited the position of Legion Commander, and he deserved it.

But now you tell Cassius

As long as the widow who took the head of the legion can inherit a legion.

This is absolutely unacceptable.

"Pulcier, have you lost your mind?"

Some elders at the scene even began to scold Poolehill.

After all, this matter is unacceptable to them.

Many of the veterans at the scene had served as legion commanders.

It would be absurd if, after their death, their legion remarried with his wife.

"It is impossible for Cassirom to be the head of the legion!"

Consul Phillips said coldly.

Because marrying a widow is necessary to obtain the other party's legion, which is impossible.

"How about this! We have Cassirom as the deputy head of the army, and he will be in charge of the entire army with Brian!"

At this moment another senator, Albinus, proposed.

"Is this your real purpose?"

Lucius looked at Albinus angrily.

The two had dealt with each other many years ago, and their relationship was very different.

More importantly, both have served as consuls.

In the final analysis, they intend to mess up this matter.

It is impossible to compete for Brian if only Cassirom competes for the head of the army.

However, this matter can be messed up and Cassirom can be sent as another deputy army commander.

In ancient Rome, there was a precedent for a legion led by two legionaries.

Although they are two deputy army chiefs, they exercise the power of the army chief.

"I don't think Cassirom is qualified to be the deputy commander!"

Consul Sextus, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke. .
