Ancient Rome: Beginning With The Legionnaire

at dusk

Brian's team finally set off.

"Master Brian, why did you leave Rome in such a hurry this time?"

Fox, who hastily sold the pickles on hand, returned immediately.

At this moment, he was standing next to Brian with a puzzled look and asked.

He wouldn't dare to give him 100 guts normally, but at the moment Brian is in a good mood.

Humming an unknown song, standing on the side of the boat watching the sunset.

And this time Brian was very anxious.

Fox had worked with him a few times before.

Knowing that Brian is a very enjoyable person.

Normally, they don't leave at night.

If there is no urgent situation, you will definitely not choose to leave 22 at night.

"I have been promoted to be the head of the legion!"

Brian turned his head to look at Fox, naturally it was impossible to tell him the real reason, but he threw out an ambiguous reason.

yes

That's right now Brian has been promoted to Captain of the Legion.

In ancient Rome, the head of the legion was a symbol of identity and status.

To become a legionnaire, one must first be a nobleman of the Senate.

Now someone who doesn't come has become the head of the legion again, which is another blessing. Nobles with military power are different from ordinary nobles.

"Then who is this young and beautiful lady?"

Fox has a great ability to observe words and feelings. Although he is careless, he has an aristocratic temperament in his gestures.

It is not comparable to the children of ordinary Roman civilians.

And it's impossible for Brian's character to bring an ordinary Roman citizen's child with him.

"This is my fiancée, Phil Silesia Mallor"

Hearing the surname Mary, Fox showed a sudden realization.

It turned out that the Cotta family and the Mario family were married.

"It turned out to be the beautiful Miss Phil, I was so rude just now!"

Fox hurriedly bowed and saluted, but he didn't dare to kiss the back of Phil's hand, he just bowed and saluted.

"Fox Uncle is polite!"

Phil, lightly lifting the long skirt, performed the etiquette of an aristocratic girl.

"I asked my subordinates to prepare a sumptuous dinner, and Lord Brian and Miss Phil will have dinner together!"

No way, now Brian is the head of the 13th Legion, firmly controlling northern Iberia.

Phil turned to look at Brian.

Although she prefers to mess around, Brian still listens to big things.

"Since Mr. Fox invites you affectionately, we'd rather be obedient than respectful."

Fox's fleet sailed until late at night. According to Brian's request, they did not stop to rest, but continued on their way.

Due to special reasons in the Mediterranean Sea, most of the ships here cannot use sails, and can only use sailors to row oars

Moreover, two groups of people acted in batches.

Let's go slower at night, but we have to move forward.

On a small island tens of nautical miles away from the fleet.

"My lord, in front, we found a fleet!"

A burly pirate wakes their leader, Blackbeard.

Blackbeard, a tough pirate of the western Mediterranean.

There are nearly 1,000 pirates under him, and they are familiar with water warfare.

The Roman Republic had encircled and suppressed him many times, but he escaped with flexible tactics.

For a long time he has been attacking the passing ships nearby.

"Oh, how many people are there?"

"The other party is 30 transport ships, which should be transporting goods!

The pirate looked greedily at his leader, Blackbeard.

You know, there is not much defense on the transport ship.

These merchants often hire some mercenaries, but the number of mercenaries is not very large. It is not too many to have ten or twenty people on each ship.

If their pirate group is fully dispatched, they can easily take down each other.

"30 transport ships, this is a big deal!"

Blackbeard's first thought was the cargo of the 30 ships.

If these goods are sold upside down, you can definitely make a lot of money.

In fact, what is more valuable is the owners of these 30 ships.

As long as you catch him, you can get a big ransom of 400 yuan.

"Boss, the other party's ship seems to be very fast, and it doesn't look like there is much cargo!"

These cargo ships are all empty, and the speed is of course much faster than normal.

"It doesn't matter if the ship is empty! A person who can own 30 cargo ships should not be an ordinary person. As long as he is caught, he can also hold a vote."

Facing his subordinate's question, Blackbeard said coldly.

"Wake up those bastards, it's a deal!"

Thinking of this, the corners of Blackbeard's mouth could not help but slightly curl up.

They have not come to the door for 3 or 4 months, and this time the 30 ships must not be given up.

"Okay, lead the sky!"

*****

"Brian! I remember my grandfather met Silesian pirates the last time he came to the Mediterranean Sea. Do you think we will meet this time!"

It was almost midnight, but Phil was still refreshed.

Recalling the energy that Mario was caught by the pirates before, if Brian hadn't shot at that time.

Then a generation of famous generals, Gaius Marius will die in the people of pirates. .
