At the end of the eighth month of the Julian calendar, nothing happened. As a historian, Dion recorded the facts like this.
No way, this historian's way of writing is more like writing a diary than a historical annals. Basically, he writes about what happened today and then writes a comment or something.
As a result, during the entire month of August, there was nothing interesting to do in Rome other than group fights and fistfights, so Dion lost all motivation as he wrote.
After all, it would be too boring to write about one thing every day, so Dion would not bother to write about who the Tenth Knight beat today in the annals of history.
Even now, when Dion saw Vincenzo carrying a bag and leading someone away, Dion had already finished writing today's diary in advance. Today was calm and nothing happened.
"It's over here, right?" Palmiro pointed to the area near the arena with his cane. The arena had recently stopped and the area had been cleared, leaving a large area waiting for this group of people.
The fight started, and today Ma Chao and others finally recharged their batteries and reached their peak.
"Yes, you are making a picture here. We will attract the Tenth Knight. When the time comes, Renato, you will block it from the front, Tachito and Paulus, one on the left and one on the right." Ma Chao looked at the arrival on time.
The three comrades said very seriously.
Marche did not come. He said that he was too old to participate in such activities, so he sent over his designated legion commander, Julius Cornelius Paulus, Marche's Far Side
Nephew and heir of the Cornelius family.
In this regard, Ma Chao has no good solution. After all, Marche does seem to be a bit old. It would be bad if the other party participates in such an overly intense activity. It would be bad if he dies suddenly. Don't look at the fact that he has already called the hospital emergency room in advance.
After saying hello, Galen and Hua Tuo were also waiting for the arrival of the wounded, but if they were too old, they would easily go to heaven on the way.
Therefore, Ma Chao did not force Marche to participate in this kind of event. Anyway, Paulus brought the 12th Eagle Banner Corps, which is very reliable.
"Africanas, you and I, and Benito who is hiding somewhere, are blocking Virgilio who comes to rescue later. We must not let them get together. We must defeat them this time.
!" Ma Chao looked at Africanas with a somewhat ferocious look.
"Okay!" Africanas said concisely. He originally didn't want to participate in this kind of sand sculpture activity, but when Ma Chao had a bruised nose and a swollen face, he limped to the camp of the Third Eagle Flag, looked at the whining soldiers, and expressed
They want to go against the Tenth Knight, do they have the guts to join them?
At that moment, Africanas said that he saw his father's ridicule, and then got up and said that he could go with Ma Chao to fight the Tenth Knight, but then Ma Chao would need to go with him to wrestle with his father.
Ma Chao patted his chest and assured that there would be no problem. He had fought with Perennis more than once and was beaten very ugly. Now Africanas said that after beating the Tenth Knight, he would go and wrestle Perennis. Ma Chao refused at all.
nothing.
What is there to be afraid of? Without you Africanas, I, Ma Chao, would have to wrestle with your father. If you do, then there is nothing to be afraid of. Just wrestling!
"Julio didn't come, right?" Ma Chao looked around and said, he really didn't understand politics, but after going back and forth for so long, Ma Chao also figured out a little bit of meaning, but this is not important anymore, the important thing is
Defeat the Tenth Knight!
"Victory is in front of us! Please fight hard!" Ma Chao shouted loudly, and then without saying anything, he flew directly back to the camp and led the seventh loyalist to prepare for battle.
"It's begun." Perennis stood at the window of the Pantheon, looking in the direction of Ma Chao and others. It would be a fool to say that he was not interested in such a large-scale fight.
"Who do you think can win?" Pompianus climbed up the stairs. He originally wanted to go to the Roman Theater to watch it, but considering that a group of young people would probably beat him crazy, they would probably beat him too.
Damn, his arms and legs can't withstand such harm.
"The market is open, the market is open, the Ma Chao Group will pay 1.50 points for each win, and the 10th Cavaliers will pay 0.85 for each win. It is a dynamic market and can be adjusted at any time." Pomponi held up a sign under the Pantheon and began to greet him. When he arrived at this
By that time, even the Roman senators who were a little better informed knew the news.
"Two thousand silver coins for the tenth knight." Herodian looked at the odds as he passed by. Although there was no profit in the odds for the tenth knight, if there was, it would not be a loss.
Then a group of veterans appeared one after another, and when they saw the handicap, they began to adjust their bets. During this time, the veterans who were sensitive to information had already placed bets on Pomponi in advance.
But the shameless thing about Pomponi is that his handicap is a dynamic handicap, that is, the odds are constantly changing. More importantly, it is not sure how many people Ma Chao can attract, so this handicap has been changed.
Many times, the odds of Ma Chao were as high as 1 to 25 at the beginning, but no one dared to beat this handicap, except for some betting dogs.
In fact, most of the Roman senators are not sure how many people Ma Chao has recruited, so there are many senators who are optimistic about the Tenth Knight. After all, the Tenth Knight's performance is too strong. This thing is equivalent to Huo Qubing's personal guard from three hundred
It has survived until now, and then Huo Qubing was still alive, so the Roman senators were very confident in the Tenth Knight.
One wears seven, and it’s not like the tenth knight has never done it before. How many can Ma Chao win?
"Undertake the insurance business." The patriarch of the Valerius family came out from the side and held up a sign. This family belongs to a strange family. Although it is not as powerful as the Claudius family, this family has created many strange businesses.
thing.
For example, they take over the annuities paid by the soldiers, and then their family sets up an association to bear the funeral expenses and disability benefits for the soldiers. The business is very extensive, and now that Pomponi is engaged in gambling, the Valerius family feels that this
The kid made a large amount of money, and there was a possibility of making a fortune, but of course there was also a possibility of capsizing, so he held up a sign and started selling insurance on the spot.
Pomponi collected gambling money for a period of time, and the amount was huge. He looked at his father standing on the upper floor, thinking that if the market was ruined, his father would definitely not compensate him, so he hesitated for a while, calculated the income and
I spent about 20% of my profits to buy an insurance policy from the young man selling insurance next door.
In this way, if the plate explodes, the insurance seller next door will pay a large part of the compensation, so that the loss will not be too tragic, so the two parties begin to trade in front of a group of people.
"Is there any other handicap? I want to make a hedge." After collecting the money, Valerius began to observe whether there was any handicap. Finally, he found a new handicap in the Senate next door and made some calculations.
After profits and losses, part of the money received is allocated to the new market.
On the other side, when a large number of senators disappeared and the atmosphere in the city became deserted, Vincenzo, who was going out to beat the Thirteen Roses, felt something was wrong. However, with the large-scale light and shadow made by Palmiro based on the city of Rome, even Vincenzo
Oya can't find the problem.
Until Vincenzo stepped close to the Roman Theater, his super intuition suddenly made him feel that something was wrong.
Instead of shouting, he slashed directly in front of him with a knife, and then closed his eyes. His vision was no longer reliable. Then Vincenzo unleashed his momentum wantonly, and Virgilio did the rest.
Already.
As Vincenzo showed his own momentum, Virgilio, who was sitting and waiting in the Senate, slowly stood up.
"Emperor, I'm going out for a while." Virgilio stood up and said very respectfully.
"Show me the victory." Caesar said with a smile. Virgilio was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed wildly, "Just like before, we will dedicate the victory to you!"
After speaking, Virgilio and the remaining two thousand people set off from the Senate and walked towards the location where Vincenlio's momentum came from.
"It's really not easy to win." Caesar sighed. He knew very well how many opponents the Tenth Knight would have. It was impossible to win. After all, the Tenth Knight was no longer the invincible one that crushed the entire Rome.
And other legions have not fallen behind in these two hundred years.
All the legions are getting stronger. Although the Tenth Knight is also getting stronger, the difficulty from one hundred to one thousand is far less than that from one thousand to ten thousand, although it is also ten times as difficult.
Virgilio felt the breath coming from the wind and walked out of the Senate with long strides, while Ma Chao had already appeared on the road with his regular troops.
"You really have the guts," Virgilio looked at Ma Chao and said with a smile.
"This road is blocked." Ma Chao put away his smile. Even though he had prepared so many manpower, he still looked much more cautious when looking at the oncoming tenth knight.
"Whether it makes sense or not, it's up to you." Virgilio shook his head, and then rushed directly in the direction of Ma Chao. Two huge clouds collided together, and then the entire city of Rome was covered in thick clouds.
Next, the battle begins.
"Vincentio, if you want to get over, knock me down first!" Renato yelled and bumped towards Vincenzo. The soldiers of the Tenth Knight met the Thirteen Roses with ease. The two sides were just a confrontation.
The dull sound made Huangfu Song, who was standing outside Kangke Palace, become more solemn. The basic qualities of the Roman legion were really trained by the dead Anxi.
"Is this the only way?" Vincenzo resisted the suppression of the cloud and punched Renato with a slightly twisted hand, knocking Renato and the guards behind him to the ground, "Rebound with savings."
We are more skilled than you at this kind of thing."
However, such a violent attack did not make Qiangwei's soldiers fall to the ground. They already had the physical fitness to withstand such a terrifying attack.
