While Cicero was still dumbfounded, the attendant, who seemed to have a tendency to stutter, finally added, "In addition, the people of Tebris have authorized it again. Since the Macedonian province does not need to expedition to Dacia, Then the six legions of Lepidus were originally placed under Antony's command. √∟The top novel,"

There was another cry of wailing in the synagogue. All six legions were returned to Antony. This was like a sharp sword hanging directly on the head of the Roman city. You must know that Caesar was separated from here by the Rubicon River at least back then!

As a result, the aide opened his mouth to speak again - Cicero, Casca and others were almost ready to tear his mouth to pieces - "In addition, the People's Assembly also requested the Senate to discuss the issue of Shannan Gaul today. vote."

"Sierra Gaul already belongs to Decimus, and this was also decided in Caesar's memorandum before his death." Cicero said hurriedly.

"Caesar did not say in the memorandum that he would kill him. When I advocated respecting the memorandum just now, you were just talking about it. Now you have changed the situation and have no credibility. If you treat a murderer who murdered a dictator, you will be treated like a murderer. If you want to respect and reconcile a bastard who privately brought armed sword fighting slaves to steal the power of the province without going through any legal procedures, then where is the prestige of the Temple of Concord? I am basing this on everyone present. I am requesting that this matter be handed over to you for a vote because of the respect of people. If you still don’t know the state of the world, I can completely hand the bill to the National Assembly for passing." Anthony nakedly threatened all the senators. "Even if the people hesitate. I believe that normal people and soldiers will grant me this power, which is to avenge the death of Caesar."

"I advocate granting Antony this power. If the behavior of Brutus and Cassius towards the dictator is reasonable, then the behavior of Deximus before Caesar's death and even after his death can be said to be extremely It destroyed the order of this country." As soon as Anthony stopped speaking, Caesar's heavyweight relatives Bisso and Cotta suddenly stood up and supported Anthony's request.

Then Basatus and Ebro also raised their hands and made a gesture of approval.

Then more senators from the Caesar faction loudly supported it. Requesting Antony to be given the power to conquer Dithymus in Shannan Gaul, this scene seems to have been rehearsed. Many people even publicly provoked the generals and said that if Antony was asked to go to Macedonia to take up his post, then the four legions of Deximus would attack Rome with personal grudges and carry out a policy of massacre of the senators and people. The city of Rome must transfer power to Anthony.

Forced by this situation, Cicero, Casca, Spinzel, Aetius and others could only spread their hands and express that they would not oppose or obstruct the resolution, and then sat down.

Brutus, however, stood up. Speaking to Antony, "Your Majesty's conquest of Decimus now. In what name is it? Does it violate the agreement reached between Your Majesty and the Senate?"

"Of course it is a crime of illegally obtaining the provincial chief executive." Antony replied. Since the Senate has compromised with him, he does not need to talk about "revenge for Caesar". If he does this It will undoubtedly create more enemies for himself in the city of Rome.

"Then we need more protection!" Brutus threw out his thoughts, and then many elders who had always admired him expressed their support, "When the power of conquest and the army are entrusted to you, you must protect your mother. , his wife and all his relatives remained in Rome, and they were not allowed to leave without authorization. In addition, the Senate needed to have absolute non-interference power over the appointment of provincial governors. Finally, the Senate had to issue an amnesty to the two young Pompeii. Order, you can't stop it."

Antony approved, saying that he had no ambitions similar to those of Caesar and Lepidus, and then extended his hand to indicate that the Senate could continue.

Finally, the Senate's bill was issued, "ordering all the legions in Spain, including the Pompey brothers who accepted the pardon and the men of Labienus, to be organized into eight legions, namely, the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 24th, The twenty-fifth, twenty-sixth and forty-first legions, plus the recruiting power of ten more auxiliary legions of the alliance, were supremely commander-in-chief Trureas. After leaving an appropriate garrison, the rest of the troops were mobilized as quickly as possible and rushed to The city of Rome was used to prepare for Lepidus' possible hostility to the Republic; but on the other hand, the Senate did not give up its efforts for peace and had to send envoys to the province of Nebo to inform the mutinous legions and the tribes of Gaul. , told them to disarm immediately and wait for disposal.”

From this point of view, Anthony won the battle completely under Curio's advice. At the grand banquet held at the Bergalondi Manor after nightfall, Cotta, Picasso, and Basatus The backbone of Caesar's party all went to congratulate him, and made Antony, who was in an extremely happy mood, very drunk alone. It is worth mentioning that Eurabella also went there with valuable gifts, and openly settled her feud with Antony. , flatteringly calling the other person "a brother-level figure" and "the savior of Rome."

In a luxurious atmosphere, two young men, Octavian and Leo, who had just been appointed tribunes, appeared at the banquet uninvited. They stood with red faces after vomiting in the bathroom. Come out and return to Anthony who is drinking verbena water in his seat.

"Don't stand there. You are old enough to drink without being scolded by your mother." Antony said with a smug smile, pointing at the two of them wearing black cloaks, boots, and with immature expressions. Then the actors and prostitutes around them burst into laughter.

"Father Antony, after learning about your behavior in the synagogue today, I am generally relieved. I have changed my previous prejudice against you. It seems that you are still persistent in revenge for your adoptive father. In addition, many of my adoptive father's old soldiers, whether they are legion commanders or centurions, have come to me these days. They slightly blamed me for not respecting you enough. So now, taking advantage of this banquet and in front of the elders, I am willing to make peace with you and hope that you will become the leader of this cause." After saying that, Octavian extended his hand generously.

At this time, Leo took the lead in applauding and cheering, followed by Cotta, Basatus, Piso and others. Antony was embarrassed, so he struggled with his half-drunk head and shook hands with Octavian.

"In short, as tribunes, Leo and I will do our best to help you stay in Rome," Octavian said.

"Oh, don't say that. I think Gaius should take care of these trivial matters." Antony replied to Octavian and Leo with a drunken breath, hugging and hugging.
