The Three Kingdoms

The walls of the outer city are the strongest and tallest walls in the city of Rome. They are called Hadrian's Walls. This was the city wall built by Emperor Hadrian himself during the reign of Emperor Hadrian. This wall wraps the inner city. The city of Rome expanded twice as much in that era.

So it is an indestructible city.

And now in the city, there are guards waiting in full force.

The Guards Legion was the seven standing legions of the Roman Empire back then, and it was also the most powerful legion in the Roman Empire. Its strength, equipment, and individual quality far surpassed their two legions. Even if there are millions of troops outside the city, it may not be easy to conquer it.

Unless the Guards opened the city gates from the inside and gave up defense, even if the Jagged Legion and the Apollo Legion jointly attacked, they would not be able to open the gates of Rome.

"The Tomb of Augustus!"

Macrinus raised his head indifferently, his eyes fell on the opposite side of the Tiber River, looked towards the northeast, and said: "No matter how strong the defense is, there are loopholes, and the loopholes in the city of Rome are in the tomb of Augustus. It is from here that His Majesty Severus entered the city without anyone noticing, and achieved the glory of the Severus family, this is the only way to enter the city without knowing it!"

When Severus raised his troops from the province of Pannonia, he also led his troops to besiege the city of Rome.

That is, he is just a North African, not even an authentic Roman. He has no great prestige in the empire, and he has no honor to make the people of Rome surrender. What he relies on is only a strong force. Outside the city, the situation is getting worse every day.

In the end, a craftsman who was familiar with the construction of the city of Rome informed him about this secret road into the city of Rome.

Only then could he successfully lead the army into the city and establish his hegemony in one fell swoop.

Afterwards, this secret passage was banned by Severus, and no one was allowed to spread it to the outside world, and even those who knew it let him kill a Qiqibaba. The whole empire knew the popularity of this secret passage. Rinus is one of them.

"The Mausoleum of Augustus?"

Caracalla was shocked when she heard this.

Emperor Augustus, that was the first emperor of the empire, Gevis Octavian Augustus.

He is a god throughout the empire.

His mausoleum is also a holy place that is sacred and inviolable to many people.

"The general means that I also entered the city through the secret passage of the Augustus Mausoleum!" Caracalla frowned. He was a little happy, but also a little scrupulous. After all, if the Augustus Tomb was destroyed, he would bear the curse of the entire empire. .

"His Royal Highness, at this moment, hegemony is the main thing. Are you willing to let Prince Geta take the throne?" Makrinus sneered, he looked down on Caracalla's timid look.

Since ancient times, those who have achieved great things have always been unscrupulous.

Back then, Severus was able to defeat the great enemies one by one to unify the Roman Empire from the troubled times, and successively seized Armenia, Mesopotamia, and the northern barbarians, making the empire change from its weakness and become stronger.

His courage to do things is unmatched.

Facing the only way back then, he didn't even need to think about it, so what's the point of thinking about it, he went straight into the army without saying a word.

"No!"

Caracalla trembled, his eyes became sharp and vicious, he gritted his teeth, and said: "I will never let Geta take the throne, this is my Caracalla position, whoever dares to rob me, I will Just cut him off!"

***************

Directly opposite the Jagged Legion, the Apollo Legion has also lined up for battle.

Geta's eyes were also staring forward.

Standing beside him was Sextu Caesar, an imperial knight over five years old, wearing a battle armor, a helmet on his head, an epee around his waist, and a spear in his hand, with extraordinary vigor.

Caesar, this is a surname second only to Augustus.

In the empire is the ancient nobleman.

But relative to Augustus, Caesar was a nobleman in decline.

And Sextu is the head of the Caesar family.

At the same time, he is also Geta's father-in-law, and his daughter is married to Geta.

So he has always been Getta's staunchest supporter.

"Father, are you confident?" Geta asked in a low voice with sweaty palms.

Facing him is his elder brother, and the Jagged Legion, which is a legion whose combat effectiveness is still higher than that of the Apollo Legion.

"Your Highness, don't worry!"

A gleam of light flickered in Sextu's eyes: "The Empire has fought against the Eastern Demons for many years. The Iron Blood Legion has already wiped out the elite, and I, the main force of the Apollo Legion is still there. I will win this battle."

Whether it was the Battle of Ukrull or the Battle of Damascus, the Apollo Legion did not work hard and focused on preserving their strength.

Therefore, the Germanic legion that went out at the same time has been completely wiped out.

And the strength of the Apollo Legion led by him can still maintain more than [-]%.

Relatively speaking, the Jagged Legion has been fighting on the Eastern battlefield for so many years, fighting fiercely with Eastern demons successively, from the battlefield in Mesopotamia to Antioch, Syria, and finally fighting the Guards in Milan. Most of the vitality is now mostly recruits, and the elite veterans are exhausted.

Sextu is confident that the Apollo Legion can win.

"I'm relieved of this!"

A smile bloomed on Geta's face: "As long as the Iron-Blooded Legion can be defeated, the Guards will open the city gate. As for the Council of Elders, that old Robert has agreed to submit to me. The day of coronation is just around the corner!"

"His Royal Highness, you still have to be careful. Since that old man Robert dares to attack His Majesty Severus, it's hard to guarantee that he will turn his back on him after being perfunctory!" Sextu said with a gloomy hatred in his eyes.

In fact, when the empire was first established, the Caesar family was the number one nobleman of the Council of Elders. Even Octavian was in awe of the Caesar family.

But since the time of Emperor Trajan, the Robert family began to be the first nobles of the Senate.

The Caesar family has already withered talents, and has been suppressed by the Robert family for hundreds of years, and even the title of elder has been deprived. For the Robert family, Sextu hated it to the bone.

"I know!"

Geta nodded: "As long as the overall situation of the empire is stabilized, I will be the first to kill him!"

*********************

dong dong dong! ! ! ! !

On the outskirts of Rome, on the west bank of the Tiber River, bursts of drumming sounded.

The Iron Blood Legion and the Apollo Legion fought.

The two sides held their breath and wanted to send the prince they supported to the position of the master of the empire, so they fought and killed without any doubt.

On top of the highest bastion of the Roman walls.

The three chief consuls of the Guards, Terrence, Vologasino, and Julius, were also quietly watching the battle.

"Before, I always thought that they should have a little bit of the empire as the most important thing, but after seeing today's scene, I am sure that they have been blinded by power!" Terrence said coldly.
