Ancient Rome: Start with the legionnaire

Facing Brian as deputy commander, Lucius and Rex made a standard Roman military salute.

Place your right hand on your left shoulder before waving forward.

Seeing the other party salute, Brian also made a Roman military salute very reluctantly.

In order to maintain the status and prestige of the military, these small etiquettes must be observed.

“All right! Dear Newspaper Officer Lucius, what news did you bring this time?! ”

As a close confidant of Legionnaire Kateus, Lucius delivered each time he arrived to convey the Legionnaire’s orders and opinions.

“Lord Brian, the Legion Master wants to understand your purpose in mobilizing the forces of the three brigades and coming here?”

Lucius’s tone softened, not daring to look directly at Brian.

Not only him, but even the centurions behind Brian were curious about Brian’s purpose.

With the few troops they have, they are not enough to challenge the powerful Tarago tribe.

What’s more, just now, Brian also released more than 100 people from the Gallic tribe, which made the centurions under him confused.

“Ahem! I mobilized so many troops, of course, I am stationed here! ”

Brian cleared his throat and said in the words he had already prepared.

“Stationed here? Could it be that the Gauls are going to sneak up on our legions again? ”

Lucius asked puzzled.

Sneak attack on the Roman legions.

This is Brian’s usual method.

Every time a Gaul was captured, it was said that it was a Gallic soldier preparing to attack the Roman legions.

Isn’t the Senate forbidden active attack, then defense is always okay, right?

“Of course! Just yesterday I found a small group of Gauls preparing to attack the legions, and thwarted them with LinkedIn brave Roman soldiers. ”

Really!

The surrounding centurions revealed a look that was indeed like this.

“Then Lord Brian, do you have any plans to continue the attack?”

Lucius continued to ask.

This is what Legion Commander Kateus wanted to ask Brian.

Although Brian only had three brigades in his hands, maybe he would dare to sneak up on the Gaul tribe on the opposite side.

“Of course not, I led the troops just stationed here to prevent them from sneaking up on the legion!”

Brian shook his head.

He has always been arrogant and bold, and he did not dare to rashly take a thousand people to sneak up on a tribe with a population of more than 200,000.

“Okay then! I immediately convey your meaning to the Legionnaire! ”

Lucius nodded.

Although he knew Brian’s personality, he had too few troops to launch such a suicide attack.

And in fact, Brian did not intend to attack.

The population gap is simply too big.

“And this is my handwritten letter! Please pass it on to the Legionnaire! ”

Brian put the letter he had prepared in advance into the bamboo tube, blocked the mouth of the tube with sealing wax, and handed it to Lucius.

Lucius took the bamboo tube, made a standard Roman military salute, and turned to leave.

This time his mission has been completed, just confirm that Brian is not attacking the Gallic tribe on the opposite side.

“Okay, all the personnel go down the river to get gold for me!”

After Lucius left, Brian turned to look at his centurions and tribunes.

The new centurions and tribunes, and some were stunned.

After all, Brian blocked the news before and could not spread the news about the gold.

But secrets can never be stopped.

Now more than 1,000 Roman soldiers mingle.

It’s only a matter of time before the gold thing leaks out.

“Gold!”

“Gold!”

The centurions couldn’t help but exclaim.

And some centurions and tribunes showed such expressions.

Just yesterday, Brian handed out at least two gold coins to each soldier.

This is an ordinary Roman soldier, three months’ salary.

It turns out that there are gold mines in this small river.

Looking at the astonished gazes of his men, Brian paused and continued.

“90% of all the gold salvaged in Little Hanoi belongs to the legion, and 10% of the brethren can be divided equally!”

Before the words fell, Polo led the centurions to cheer.

“Lord Brian! Banzai! ”

Don’t underestimate this tiny 10% gold.

According to the rules of the Roman legions, this gold should belong to the legions.

Brian was willing to give 10% to the Legionnaires, so he gathered the support of a large number of low-level soldiers.

As the saying goes, soldiers who do not want to kill the commander of the legion are not good nobles.

Brian has always had an attempt to assassinate the Legion Commander Kateus, and then he himself becomes the Legion Leader.

However, according to Roman law, the head of the legion could only be the senator of the Senate.

Now Brian is not yet an elder of the Senate, and even if he kills Katius, a new Legionnaire will come to take office.

In addition, Kateus has not been very careful, and he looks like he is throwing his hands at the cabinet.

So Brian has kept him alive to this day.

Once Brian enters the Senate, then it is the time of death of the current Legionnaire.

“All right! Bring your people! Let me see how much gold is in this little river! ”

Tempted by gold, the entire legion (only three brigades) immediately took action.

Roman soldiers cut down the surrounding trees to make the simplest gold panning equipment.

The gold mining equipment of a full 1,500 people was completed in only two hours.

Then the soldiers, who were accustomed to touching the short sword and killing people, went crazy and rushed to the river.
