Ancient Rome: Beginning With The Legionnaire

The ordinary people at the bottom looked at the stage above, and it turned out that a Roman senator was being judged.

These ordinary Roman citizens were talking aside.

"Cassius, you have no right to judge me!"

Didi has been clamoring.

"According to the law, you can't judge a Roman senator without the presence of the Grand Inquisitor."

Roman Chancellor, now served by Sulla.

The senate cannot judge senators without the presence of the justices.

"Dear Lord Didius, but you forgot to have a premise!"

"The premise is that during the war, the chairman of the Senate has 22 powers to replace the justices to judge the elders!"

war?

Didius has been imprisoned, not knowing that the situation in the entire Roman Republic is now precarious.

If the current situation is a storm.

Then Didius is that strong little butterfly.

As Didius mobilized the Legion and assassinated Drusus, the civil war in the Roman Republic gradually arose.

The soldiers of the Roman Republic have always been Italians.

Strictly speaking, Roman citizens were also Italians.

But not all Italians were Roman citizens.

There were no more than 500,000 real Roman citizens, and millions of Italians.

Most of them were just Roman commoners, without citizenship rights.

"Don't you know? The Italians rebelled a few days ago!"

Cassius whispered aside.

In fact, he didn't want to be the executioner either.

However, in order to cover the two consuls, Didi Selfless must die today.

Even if it can delay the Italian rebels for a day, it is considered good.

"The Italians have mutinied, how is that possible?"

"Yes! How is it possible?"

Italians have served Rome without pay for nearly 300 years.

The last mutiny was more than 100 years ago.

Accompanied by the implementation of the new law.

More wealth was gathered in the hands of Roman citizens, mainly nobles.

And as the largest number of Roman citizens, their rights and interests became increasingly serious when it came to exploitation.

More and more artisans are unemployed.

Now the more than 10 legions in the hands of Pompidius and Babius are the powerful legions gathered by those unemployed.

"Yes, they are marching towards Rome under the banner of avenging Drusus!"

In fact, at this point Cassius is completely bullshitting.

Both militarily and politically.

Neither Pompidius nor Babius planned to attack Rome at this moment.

Of course Didius is just a prisoner at the moment, there is no need to tell him the real situation.

"Then what about my legion? Sir Cassius please give me a chance, I will definitely lead my legion to defeat these rebels!"

Didius quickly said that this is the last straw.

Although his legion would suffer heavy casualties if he did that, it was worth it to save his life.

However, he completely underestimated the power of the rebels.

At this moment, the rebel army has as many as 18 legions, and they are even commanded by a generation of famous generals like Babius.

Babius was the greatest general before Caesar, but it is a pity that he did not serve the Roman Senate.

Empty has the title of the strongest general of this era.

"Master Didius, you have no idea how big a trap you have made!

Cassius said in a low voice.

"Gaius Durat and Plath, their legions have been completely annihilated!"

"How is it possible? The Seventh Army and the Eleventh Army are field armies on the southern coast of Italy, and their combat effectiveness is very strong!"

Didius was completely shocked.

It has been nearly a hundred years, and there has never been a situation where an entire legion has been wiped out. .
