Ancient Rome: Beginning With The Legionnaire

Early in the morning, Rex led nearly a hundred craftsmen to Brian.

Of course, these hundreds of so-called craftsmen are just carpenters selected from slaves.

Brian had 38,000 slaves under his command.

Among these Gauls, there are many skilled craftsmen.

These people were brought into a large courtyard with a single family.

No one around is allowed to come near.

And there was a line of Roman soldiers guarding it.

It can be said that the guards are quite strict.

When Brian met the so-called 100 artisans.

These people are all yellow and thin.

"How the hell do these guys look like?"

Brian turned to look at Rex beside him.

"Master Legion, you don't know! Before these people were captured by us, they became slaves, so their physical fitness is extremely poor!"

Brian explained from the sidelines.

Before Brian uprooted a Gallic tribe, all 22 were captured as slaves.

It's just that this tribe has something special, most of their work is done by slaves.

The West of the world during this period.

Not only the Roman Republic had a large number of slaves, but even the Gaul tribes also had a large number of slaves.

Gaul is not a complete collective, but divided into countless tribes, large and small.

These tribes fought with each other, and the larger tribes swallowed the smaller ones.

And sometimes people from small tribes become slaves to big tribes.

And the more than 100 people in front of them are slaves of the Gaul tribe.

"In that case!"

Brian gave a few words to the two Roman soldiers beside him.

After a while, a huge iron pot was set up in front of the 100 craftsmen.

There is nothing else in the iron pot, just a pig slaughtered by the sun.

Pork was only allowed to be eaten by Roman soldiers.

These slaves couldn't help licking their mouths as they watched the pork being cooked in the iron pan.

That's what Brian wanted.

"How about it? Want to eat the meat inside!"

Brian looked at the 100 craftsmen in front of him and showed a very intriguing smile.

"My lord, is this meat for us to eat?"

One of the slaves said boldly.

He had also prepared himself for a long time before he mustered up the courage to say it.

After all, most Roman officers were moody, and it was very easy for them to kill a slave.

"Of course it's for you!"

Brian waved to the Roman soldiers beside him.

The Roman soldiers nodded, then took out their bowls and started serving meals.

Only nobles could eat meat, and even Roman soldiers could only eat it 2-3 times a week.

There were only two waves of soldiers.

Staple food, cooked grains are made into something similar to sand grains.

The non-staple food is cooked meat in a big pot.

Soon, each slave was given a bowl of cooked meat and a bowl of salad.

These slaves couldn't hold back their excitement any longer, and began to gorge themselves.

Brian mostly watched them eat.

These slaves ate very fast, and they had already eaten up all the food in less than 5 minutes.

Yes, it is.

Slaves eat quickly.

Once the food is scarce, if you eat it too slowly, it will be taken away by others.

Second, they are really hungry.

After all, mining on the mountain every day is heavy physical labor.

They had been working all morning, and they were picked out by Rex before it was time for meal.

"Is the meat delicious? Do you still want to eat it?"

Brian smiled as he watched the more than 100 slaves grin like a wolf-grandmother.

"My lord! Of course we want to keep eating meat!"

The previous slave continued boldly.

"I just don't know, what do we need to do for you, my lord?"

As a slave, he naturally knew that it was impossible for these Roman officers to give them such delicious food for no reason.

Moreover, he knew that the young Roman officer in front of him was the master here, the commander of the Thirteenth Legion.

"I have a blueprint here, and I need you to produce 1,000 of them in the shortest possible time!"

Brian directly took out the previous design drawing of the Great Qin Crossbow.

In fact, its design is very delicate, but it can also be imitated. 660

Surrounded by a forest, some are raw materials.

"As long as this thing is made and mass-produced, I can guarantee that you can eat meat every day!"

Hearing about eating meat, these slaves immediately became motivated.

They all stepped forward to look at the design drawings.

Of course this map is a backup, the real original is on Brian.

"You study it, I want to see the real thing tomorrow!"

Then Brian said to Rex.

"Any tool they want can be given to them!"

Then he said more emphatically.

"If anyone tries to escape, shoot him on the spot!"

From the moment they entered here, the fate of these craftsmen has been doomed.

Brian would never allow them to leave here alive, to prevent the secrets of the blueprints from being leaked.

"Yes! Legion Commander, I will arrange it, and I will never let a slave go!"

"Very well, I am assured of everything!"

Brian patted Rex on the shoulder like a head of state. .
