Ancient Rome: Beginning With The Legionnaire

Chapter 63 Unlucky Businessman Roux

Soon Brian set off with two battalions of soldiers.

And a group of the most stubborn Gaul slaves appeared in front of Diamat.

These Gaul slaves have a huge body of nearly 1.9 meters and above, and they are covered with whips all over their bodies. It seems that they have suffered a lot in the hands of the Legion before.

Diamat took out his special long whip, a soft whip woven with calf tendon and refined flax.

It is softer than ordinary long whips, but it hurts more when hit on the body.

"Okay, let's get started!"

Snapped!

Without any explanation, Diamat directly whipped a long whip on a slave.

The slave gritted his teeth and looked at Diamat angrily.

If it weren't for the heavy shackles on his hands and feet, he would definitely fight back.

"What are you looking at! If you want to suffer less in the future, you have to listen to the leader of the army!"

However, the slave couldn't help trembling when he heard the words of the legion commander.

"Storm Blade!"

Diamat heard the words "Storm Blade" a little bit, but soon raised the whip in his hand again.

And Brian took Lucius and the strength of the two brigades.

Following the small river in the Red River Valley, we went all the way south and arrived at the first stop of the trip, the Ebro River.

The largest river in Iberia, the Ebro.

The legion (only two cohorts a) is ready to go down the river to Mount Reus indicated on the map!

"Lucius, I heard that you were born in northern Italy!"

Looking at the meticulous Lucius beside him, he couldn't start chatting.

Although Italy has been ruled by Rome in name.

But the Roman Republic did not grant equal citizenship to Italians.

"Lord Brian, I'm Marciel from Northern Italy

The Marcilians, one of the allies of Rome.

As a Marcilian, Lucius was not easy to be a legion tribune.

You must know that the legionary tribunes are nobles of the knight class. Although they are the lowest nobles in the knight class, they are also nobles and at least have Roman citizenship.

"Then Lucius, how many years have you been home?"

"Brian, I haven't been home in three years!"

Lucius replied meticulously.

There are still many stupid gourds like him in the army, and Brian has nothing to do with them, and most of these people are die-hard loyalists of Cateus.

That's why Brian didn't make up his mind to kill Cateus in advance.

Cateus' prestige in the 13th Legion is too high.

But the Gauls helped Brian, Cateus died in the hands of the Gauls, and Brian took over the entire legion justifiably.

"Lucius, I believe there will be a chance to go back soon!"

The boats on the Brian Ebro River have already been prepared.

Now Italy is almost in trouble.

The outbreak of war is inevitable.

It will take a few months at most, no more than half a year, and the Allied War will break out.

After the incumbent consul's mediation failed.

Marius and Sulla will lead 18 legions, and more than half of the Republic's troops will suppress the rebellion of the allies.

It seems that the effect is not good.

The fundamental reason is that most of the legionnaires in the Roman legion were only Roman civilians, and only a small number of citizens.

Although Lucius had some doubts, he still nodded.

After all, his immediate boss, Brian, can do almost anything.

Unauthorized mobilization of troops pushed Beiwen, the border city of the Republic, by nearly 30 miles.

And also destroyed a Gaul tribe, and disabled another tribe.

And use the captured slaves to mine, and it is for this reason that Lucius' treatment has doubled.

There was nothing Brian was afraid to do.

Lucius was sure that if Cateus hadn't died at the hands of the Gauls ahead of time, he would have died at the hands of Brian sooner or later.

This is also true in fact, Brian intends to gain control of the entire legion before the War of the Confederates, then Cateus will undoubtedly die.

Just when Lucius was thinking.

Soon, several businessmen came to Brian.

"Honorable General Brian, the merchant ship you want is ready!"

As a legion stationed inland all year round, the 13th Legion does not have any warships attached to it.

So don't come to ask, this time directly hired 30 commercial transport ships, ready to go down the river to Mount Reus.

Moreover, the employment fee for these 30 transport ships is only 500 gold coins for 10 days.

Coupled with the huge reputation of the legion, the merchants didn't even ask for a deposit.

These merchants even expressed their willingness to sacrifice everything for Lord Brian.

The leading businessman is called Lukes, and these transport ships are mainly provided by him.

In the northern part of Iberia, the richest aristocrat, this is not necessarily who, but the most powerful must be Brian.

It is an honor to be able to play for Master Brian!"

Lux said very respectfully.

If he can establish a good relationship with the legion, he will greatly open up his business routes. (Thank Zhao) "Is the boat ready?"

"Master Brian is ready, there are 30 large transport ships, each of which can accommodate 200 people!"

Roux bowed aside and said.

These 30 large transport ships can accommodate the strength of the entire legion, but Brian only has about 1,000 people.

"Very well, I will not miss your benefits!"

With a wave of Brian's hand, a soldier took a huge money bag with 500 gold coins in it, and handed it to Roux.

"Lucius! Order the soldiers to board the ship, let's set off now!"

That old guy Mario is coming soon, and he has to find the treasure before he arrives.

It's not that Brian is afraid of Mario, it's because it's been such a boring time.

"Yes! Master Legion!".
