    "Too naive.¡À," Severus, who was also distracted and looking at the fig tree outside the window with some confusion, learned that the senators of the Senate were preparing to propose to the alien envoys to use gold and silver to end this 'unpleasant war'.  A conflict should occur.  ¡¯, he curled his lips in disdain.  "These idiots actually want to kidnap me and seize power at the critical moment of the empire? Now that the enemy has arrived, they want to spend money to buy peace? Spend money? Hundreds of thousands of regular soldiers, hundreds of thousands  A huge sea ship. After going through hardships and countless battles, an expeditionary army of this size arrived at the gates of Rome. How much money would you have to spend to make this huge army retreat?  The entire city of Rome is not enough! ¡± Severus thought angrily in his heart.  After giving the elders a cold look, Severus turned his gaze to a confidant at the entrance of the hall in the distance and nodded slightly.  In a short time, a large group of Roman knights wearing red tassel crowns and bright red cloaks crossed the Roman Forum and rushed towards the meeting hall.  After the long opening speech finally ended, Guo Jia clapped his hands with a chuckle.  After a pause, he turned his gaze to Emperor Severus and asked softly, "Your Majesty, what are your plans? Will this war continue?" "Ahem." Severus raised his hand to cover his mouth and coughed, looking at  He said somewhat erratically, "I think it's time to end this war." After saying that, Severus motioned to Arnubis with his eyes.  "That's it." At this time, Arnubis could no longer pretend. After pulling out an ugly smile, he looked at Guo Jia and said, "Our Roman Empire is willing to pay a huge military expenditure for your army. I hope your army  We can leave here. We signed a peace agreement and will never fight again." Guo Jia slowly lowered his eyelids and pursed his lips without saying a word.  There was silence in the Buryat Council Hall.  All eyes were focused on the black-haired alien.  Either they are anxious, or they are angry, or they are secretly happy.  Or expressionless.  Everyone is waiting for Guo Jia's reply.  "Haha." After a moment of silence, Guo Jia slowly opened his eyes, stood up and looked around proudly at the Romans in the meeting hall.  With an inexplicable smile on his face and a sarcastic look in his eyes, he asked, "How much can you pay?" The Romans suddenly felt relieved.  If you want to talk about it, it's fine, but if you're afraid, you won't even want to talk about it.  "This." Arnubis wanted to say less, but he was afraid of angering these foreigners.  After thinking for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "Ten thousand pounds of gold, fifty thousand pounds of silver!" As soon as Arnubis finished speaking, a loud noise suddenly broke out in the entire meeting hall.  Almost everyone stood up and attacked and insulted Arnubis with excitement!  Such a huge fortune was given to a foreign race by Arnubis, a bastard?  Who in the chamber could not be angry?  As for the consequences of not paying, that's not something these angry-looking people need to consider.  "Hey." Guo Jia looked disdainfully at the Romans who were starting to fight among themselves.  His heart was filled with contempt.  At this time, we are still thinking about guarding our belongings.  He didn't want to agree yet, but they started making trouble on their own.  It¡¯s really a matter of life and death!  "Quiet! Quiet!!" Several respected senators struggled to maintain order, and even the guards outside the meeting hall were called in, which gradually calmed down the chaos.  But some people were still cursing Arnubis and throwing shoes at him.  Arnubis, with a cold face, looked at the shoes that fell beside him, the anger in his heart burning to the top of his head.  "These idiots!" Arnubis didn't know what to say.  It is now difficult for the city of Rome to resist the attack of foreign armies.  At this time, what else do you want to do if you don¡¯t spend money to deal with these foreign races and buy some breathing time for Rome?  The internal strife during this period led to a significant decline in the military power of the Romans, and it was basically difficult to resist the invasion of foreign armies.  ??Looked at Severus who had an expressionless face.  Arnubis's eyes were full of anger.  He has been tricked. If he takes the initiative, he will not be able to survive in Rome in the future.  "I refuse." Guo Jia's steady voice immediately silenced the entire hall.  Guo Jia sneered and walked onto the polished marble floor that could clearly reflect people's faces.  He raised his head slightly.  He said in a deep voice, "We are now approaching the city, and we are sure of victory now." He turned his eyes to Arnubis and said with a smile, "You said to give us the wealth. No matter how much it is, it will be placed here for us. Wait until we attack  It can be taken away within the city. Therefore, we reject the offer of exchanging the goods for retreating troops.¡±   After a pause, Guo Jia looked at the Romans with different expressions.  Then he said, "We will only accept one proposal. That is surrender." "Impossible!" The young Romans, whose faces turned red, immediately started shouting angrily.  Severu and others also looked at Guo Jia with unkind expressions.  At this time, the Romans were not at the end of their rope.  They still have great strength in their hands.  It's just that they don't belong to each other, they are even hostile, and they can't form a joint force.  Although it was in the midst of internal and external troubles and lost control of the sea.  But the Romans would never choose to surrender at this time.  There are dozens of legions gathered around the city of Rome, with a total number of more than 100,000!  "We are powerful." Guo Jia walked back and forth in the meeting hall with his head held high and said loudly, "We have enough hellfire to destroy the entire city. If you resist, the city will be burned.  In ruins. Have you really thought clearly?" "" Hearing this, Severus and others, who had seen the power of incendiary bombs in naval battles, fell silent.  They thought that if the astonishingly powerful fire of hell was set off in the city of Rome, then this city, which represented the glory of the Romans, would Thinking of this, Severus and others suddenly shuddered.  "Stop your delusions!" A young and radical Roman shouted loudly, "You barbarians will not understand the glory of our Romans! With the blessing of the great gods, the Romans will surely defeat any enemy! In the end, you will also  Fall at the feet of the Romans and become a humble slave!" "That's right!" "That's great!" "Go to hell, barbarians!" A large number of Romans began to cheer.  These people live in peace and tranquility in the Roman city all year round, and the news they hear every day is about where the empire has conquered.  The radicals, whose hearts are filled with the pride and pride of the Romans, have no idea what the horror of war is!  What¡¯s more, Rome was in chaos at this time.  I don¡¯t know how many people are thinking about fishing in troubled waters.  How could they agree to surrender?  "In this case, we have nothing to talk about." Guo Jia glanced disdainfully at the angry Romans in the meeting hall, and said coldly, "Everything has been settled on the battlefield. Farewell!" Guo Jia  Jia did not expect that these Daqin people would be so stubborn.  He has obviously seen the terrifying power of hell fire.  Naturally, they should know that once a siege is launched, it will be impossible for their city to block the terrifying power of hellfire.  "Miscalculation." Guo Jia shook his head secretly. He didn't expect that what he was originally so confident about would end like this.  It seems that the Lieutenant understands clearly that without completely defeating the enemy, putting a sharp sword on their necks, and voluntarily surrendering will not happen.  "Kill this foreigner and use him to sacrifice to the gods!" "Kill him! Kill him!" Guo Jia's arrogant attitude angered many radical Romans.  The Romans had always been arrogant to show off their power in front of foreigners. When did the situation become reversed?  They roared and tried to sacrifice this arrogant messenger to the great god.  The inspired atmosphere immediately caused the scene to get out of control.  Even if Severus and Arnubis intervened to stop it, it would have no effect.  Many fanatical Romans ran towards the guards and tried to kill with their weapons.  "Asshole! These barbarians, the two countries are at war and you don't even understand?" Guo Jia, who looked calm, was already extremely angry in his heart.  I originally thought that such a civilized country must know the most basic etiquette. Who would have thought that they would be so crazy?  "Miscalculation." Guo Jia smiled bitterly in his heart and thought to himself, "Sure enough, Lord Taiwei is right. I was blinded by the thought of meritorious service this time. Not only did I die here in vain, but I also implicated these followers."  "Hey!!!" Although he didn't understand what these Daqin people were saying, Dian Wei, who was Guo Jia's guard, understood the actions of the Romans in drawing out their weapons.  When Dian Wei entered the meeting hall before, as the guard captain, his weapons were not confiscated.  At this time, he realized that something was wrong, so he immediately pulled out his double iron halberds, roared and guarded Guo Jia, and killed him towards the gate.  Some excited Romans stepped forward to try to stop him, but without any surprise, they were easily killed by the extremely tough Dian Wei.  The mutilated limbs and splattered blood pushed things into an unpredictable direction.  "Kill someone and see blood."  At this time, even Severus and Arnubis could not prevent things from deteriorating rapidly.  With Dian Wei as his guard, Guo Jia quickly rushed out of the meeting hall and picked up a dagger from the slain guard to defend himself.  The great scholars of this era?, being versatile in both civil and military matters is a must.  "I've troubled you today." Guo Jia came behind Dian Wei and said in a deep voice.  "Hehe." Dian Wei, who was as majestic as an iron tower, laughed out loud, waved the iron halberd in his hand, and said with a big smile, "What's wrong with this? The captain ordered us to protect you, so we will."  "Bring the adults back!" "Okay!" Young Guo Jia also showed a smile and said with a smile, "Let's kill each other today!" (To be continued)
