- Yaculius knew very well that he had failed in the naval battle, but he absolutely did not want to admit defeat so easily.
He must keep fighting. If he can defeat Servius, he can save some face.
He has no doubts about his fighting ability. Pompeo specially hired the best fighting coach in Rome for him and trained him carefully. He even hired gladiators to fight with him, and Yaculius could easily win every time.
Even Pompey¡¯s best gladiators were defeated by him.
When he saw Servius stabbing him with a sword, he hurriedly blocked it with all his strength, and then he heard Servius's voice: "I know that Pompey has hired many people to teach you. I have heard that you defeated many gladiators, but do you think you can become a real warrior just like this"
Jaculius could hear the sarcasm in the words. Under Servius' attack, Jaculius wanted to fight back, but he couldn't find a chance to counterattack. He barely dodged several swords in a row. Jaculius Already panting from exhaustion: "No matter what, I will never fail"
"Poor child" Compared with his opponent, Yaculius seemed calm and composed: "The real battlefield is completely different from your training ground. Those gladiators are just in Just playing games with you, do you really think they dare to hurt you? Do you really think that this chick who is always kept at home can defeat those eagles in the sky? My child, you won¡¯t be able to do it before you are thirty? successful"
Maybemaybe those gladiators are really there to give themselves up
Servius¡¯ words made Jaculius confused. If he really had the power to defeat the gladiator, why was he unable to resist Servius¡¯ attack?
I was thinking wildly in my mind. I made a mistake in my hand and the wooden sword was knocked away. He didn't wait for his next reaction. Servius' wooden sword had stabbed him hard in the chest. With a burst of pain, Jaculius fell to the deck. Then, one foot firmly trampled him to the ground
For a moment, Yaculius lost all hope
At the same moment, the battle on the battleship also ended. All of Yaculius's men were defeated, and the black battleship achieved a complete victory.
Encouraged by the black battleship, the entire civilian army turned defeat into victory.
A game that attracted the attention of all Romans came to an end in such a somewhat strange way
Servius stood on the deck and looked at the Romans on the shore. Then he suddenly raised his wooden sword.
"¡ªServius¡ªServius¡ªServius¡ª"
There were wild cheers on the shore.
At this moment, Servius, the young general who always achieved victory on the battlefield, once again became the idol in the hearts of the Romans!
The cheers grew louder and louder. Wang Weiyi smiled and looked at everything in front of him, and then looked at Pompeo next to him.
Pompeo¡¯s expression was extremely ugly. He probably never dreamed of the Poseidon Festival that he carefully planned. In the end, the meeting ended like this.
Servius! Pompey stared at the guy who was being cheered, and the anger in his eyes was enough to burn Servius
When the award ceremony began, Pompey barely maintained his grace and put the olive leaf crown symbolizing victory on Servius' head.
"Congratulations, Servius." Pompeo took a deep breath.
"Thank you, the sole consul" Servius smiled and said: "It's a pity that I defeated Jacurius. I think he is probably very sad now"
"Yes, it is very sad, but it is something that must be experienced on the road to growth." Pompeo also had a smile on his face: "I hope that one day, he can use the same way of failure to fight back against you ¡±
¡°I¡¯m looking forward to that day coming.¡± There was no fear in Servius¡¯ words.
Then. He set his sights on the Romans who regarded him as a hero, and cheers rang out here again
The unsatisfactory Poseidon Festival is over, and Singroa is a little reluctant to leave: "Spurius, will you stay in Rome for a long time?"
"I don't know. Mrs. Singroya." Wang Weiyi said calmly: "It depends on the situation of my business, if it goes well. I think I will probably leave soon Of course, the focus of my business now Now that I'm back in Rome, I think I'll see you often in the future"
"Ah, that's great." Singroya was a little excited: "I'm honoredI sincerely invite you to come to my home when you like, and in return for your generosity you will receive the best hospitality. "
"Thank you, Mrs. Singroa."
Wang Weiyi knows that sometimes the value of an expensive gift will be huge.
This is especially true for people who are greedy for money, whether men or women
?¡
The ancient Roman arena.
Wang Weiyi has been standing here for a long time.
"This arena can accommodate more than 90,000 spectators. There are three levels of seating. The lower level, the middle level and the upper level. There is also a standing-room-only stand on the top level, which is prepared for the lowest members of society: women, Slaves and poor people. But even on other levels, seats were arranged according to social status and professional status: special boxes owned by members of the nobility and the virgins who guarded the flame sat on the same level. in the choir; and then there are warriors and civilians" Richthofen's voice sounded behind him: "People of different professions also have special seats, such as soldiers, writers, scholars and teachers. , as well as foreign monks, etc. The audience enters the Colosseum from the 80 arch entrances on the first floor, and there are 160 exits located at all levels of seats on each floor, called spits, through which the audience can flow. In and out, chaotic and out-of-control crowds can be quickly evacuated"
"You know this place very well." Wang Weiyi turned around and said with a smile: "Do you know why I come here? Because I feel like a gladiator now. I have to win one victory after another to ensure that I don't Being killed. And any negligence will put me into a state of despair."
"But at least you have achieved another victory" Richthofen smiled: "We won a great victory by sitting on the bank. Almost all the Romans bet that the noble army would win, but they were wrong. This We made a lot of money. Now I am honored to tell you that we have made enough to recover all the expenses this time, and there is still some balance"
"It's just some small entertainment." Wang Weiyi, who no longer attaches much importance to money, didn't pay much attention: "Where is Belia?"
"It's right there." Richthofen waved in that direction: "He also made a lot of money this time."
Belia came to Wang Weiyi in fear and said humbly in a flattering tone: "Dear Splius. I didn't know that you are a wealthy man from the East and that you are so trusted by the only consul. Please Forgive me for being rude to you that day, and thank you for everything you have given me.¡±
"Don't worry, Belia." Wang Weiyi smiled lightly: "People who are willing to do things for me will always get more than they imagined."
Belia quickly responded: "I am willing to serve you, and you can completely trust my loyalty. Do you have anything else to tell me?"
Loyalty? These people are loyal to no one but money.
Wang Weiyi breathed out softly: "There is nothing to ask you to do for the time being. Belia, but I think I will come to you at any time. I hope you can remember what I said today when you see me next time. Well, go back and enjoy your money."
"I promise. Then please allow me to say goodbye"
Watching Bielea leave, Richthofen shrugged: "Why are you always so interested in greedy people?"
"Because they can be bribed easily." Wang Weiyi replied casually.
"However, they can also be bribed by others"
"So, it depends on who offers a higher price. It's so high that your competitors can't afford the same price as you." Having said this, Wang Weiyi calmed down: "Manfred, I think I It's time to visit the winners and losers."
Every bit of his investment needs to be rewarded, both for winners and losers.
Pompeii is also good. This is true for Servius as well. They have to take this into consideration from the first moment they accept their sponsorship.
When the alliance between them and Wang Weiyi began to be established. They will never be able to get rid of this person in their lives
?¡
Servius¡¯s home was already filled with guests who came to congratulate him. Those poets and dramatists would probably never realize how much trouble Servius had actually caused.
They were still shouting there, tasting the fine wine prepared by the master, and singing the hymn they had just written.
And Servius accepted this with peace of mind.Everything
"Lord Servius, Spruius is here."
As soon as he heard this name, the barefooted Servius immediately stood up and went out in person to greet him in glory: "Spurius, my friend, I was about to send someone to invite you, but there was no one." Thinking of you being here first, my friend, please allow me to express my most sincere thanks!¡±
"Congratulations, Servius." Wang Weiyi smiled and hugged him gently, and then whispered: "I don't want our cooperation to be known to others."
All the guests looked at Wang Weiyi with strange eyes. The name "Splius" had already resounded throughout Rome.
He is the sponsor behind this Poseidon Festival and a friend of Pompey. Perhaps he will soon become one of the most powerful people in Rome like Crassus.
Under countless pairs of passionate eyes, Servius invited Wang Weiyi into a separate room. When they were the only two people left here, Servius couldn't wait to say: "Spurius, please accept it again." My gratitude, without your ship, I would not have been able to win this naval battle. When the citizens of Rome cheered, I seemed to have returned to the triumphal ceremony"
"I want to congratulate you on your victory first" Wang Weiyi said with deep worry on his face: "But. Before that, almost everyone was prepared that Jakulius would win, No one thought that the final winner was you. I think you have offended Pompey at this point."
Servius's face also darkened: "Yes, I offended Pompey, but I already had this awareness from the moment I decided to participate in the competition. What can Pompey do to me? Do you want to impose any crime on me? No, he will anger countless Romans!"
This person may be very brave, but his political consciousness is too low. In other words, he didn't even take Pompey into his eyes
"But I'm still worried about your situation." Wang Weiyi said with no ease at all: "Pompeo is not the kind of generous person who can accept all failures. He will find a way. You can imagine if you lose what you have now. Everything becomes a civilian, what will happen?¡±
Now. Servius became a little worried.
After all, offending Pompeo is no fun
He looked at Wang Weiyi and suddenly seemed to have discovered something: "Spurius, do you have a way to help me get out of this predicament?"
"I think I probably have some." A smile appeared on Wang Weiyi's face again: "If you can continue to lead a legion to leave the city of Rome, would you be willing?"
Servius¡¯ eyes widened in disbelief.
Resuming command of the Legion in combat was something he had only dreamed about. But unfortunately, this dream has never been realized.
He had some doubts again. In order to realize his dream, he had made a lot of efforts. But none of them succeeded. And with this alone, could Spruius, who had only returned to Rome not long ago, really be able to do it?
As if seeing his doubts, Wang Weiyi said slowly: "If you believe me, I will definitely be able to find a way to solve it. But you must be patient, and you can't hold such a grand and luxurious banquet again. I don't want you to give the elders At the same time, I also ask you to stop trumpeting the victory of this naval battle and act as if you have never participated in a naval battle"
Servius listened very carefully, and when Wang Weiyi said something, he nodded.
As long as it allows him to return to the battlefield, he can agree to any conditions.
Although he knew what Splius did, he now had confidence in Splius. Without his help, he would not be able to win the naval battle.
Wang Weiyi explained the details to pay attention to one by one, and then said: "I hope you will not only listen, but also do what I say, otherwise you will miss this opportunity and no one will be able to help you." It¡¯s your turn.¡±
"My friend, I really want to say those words of gratitude to you again, but I just want to hide my respect for you in my heart" Servius said solemnly: "When I triumph again When you are in Rome, you will not only hear the Roman citizens cheering for me, but you will also hear them shouting the name of Splius!"
He will probably never know that Wang Weiyi definitely wants more than something simple
"Servius, Servius!" At this time, a man burst in.Come: "The guests are waiting for you. Look, I have written a new poem for you, praising your achievements and satirizing Pompey and his son of unknown origin. Now let us sing it to you. Bar"
It was Crassicius who came in.
Servius noticed that Wang Weiyi's expression turned gloomy, and he hurriedly said: "No, Crasicius, I still have very important things to do here. You can sing your masterpiece to me later."
"Ah, it turns out that the respected Splius is here too." Krasicius then discovered Wang Weiyi, and he looked a little regretful: "This was written by my sudden inspiration. I thought you couldn't wait to read it." Do you want to listen? Since you have something to do now, it doesn¡¯t matter, my friends and I will wait for you outside.¡±
After he left, Wang Weiyi's face became even more ugly: "Servius, none of your friends can stay here anymore, especially Crasicius." Praising your merits, mocking Pompey and His son of unknown origin'? This will bring you endless trouble. Pompey, as a loser, has no room for redemption when he hears these poems."
No matter how slow Servius reacted, he quickly understood the power of it.
He couldn¡¯t let go of these friends. He liked to hear their poems and academic works, but compared with his own future, it seemed that these things could be put aside temporarily.
As long as you can return triumphantly one day, everything you lost will come back to you within one day.
Thinking of this, he solemnly said: "I promise you once again that from now on until the day of my triumph, there will be no more banquets and no more poems here. I will be with these people." Temporarily cut off contact and do exactly what you want, as long as it allows me to return to the battlefield."
Wang Weiyi nodded silently. In his overall deployment, Servius is obviously a very, very important chess piece! - Didn't finish reading?
