In the Damascus Consulate, the Romans were in chaos.

Consul Heifes, protected by dozens of Roman soldiers, strode towards the outside of the consul hall and shouted loudly without looking back: "Order the third and fourth battalions to stop the Syrians. The first brigade protects me and leaves Syria temporarily, and we go to Silesia. The second brigade is responsible for escorting the treasures in the treasury."

"After arriving in Silesia, I will mobilize heavy troops to teach the Syrians a lesson."

After speaking, Heifeis clenched his fist vigorously.

As Haifeis and his party approached the door of the ruling hall, four soldiers immediately stepped forward and worked together to open the door of the ruling hall.

However, as soon as the door opened, the four soldiers couldn't help but froze on the spot.

Outside the gate, thousands of Syrians holding various weapons have gathered.

The two sides looked at each other, and the Syrians were the first to react. They roared and rushed into the executive chamber.

"Quick, quick, protect the consul and retreat to the council chamber."

"There are too many Syrians. Where are our people? The rest of the bastards have not abandoned us and fled quietly."

"You bloody..."

Pushed by the soldiers, Heifeis staggered back into the largest meeting hall.

More than 20 Roman soldiers, holding weapons tightly and looking pale, guarded the door of the meeting hall.

But what surprised the Romans was that the Syrians only surrounded the council chamber and did not immediately attack the council chamber.

This discovery made Heifeis a little happy.

In Heifes' view, the Syrians were generally timid. They surrounded the council chamber without attacking. Most likely they did not dare to go too far and wanted to have peace talks with the Roman Empire.

Ultimately, Hepheus had faith in the Roman Empire.

Heifes believed that the Syrians would give the Roman Empire face.

Thinking of this, Heifeis smiled and adjusted his collar.

He stepped behind the door of the meeting hall.

"I am Hepheus, consul of Syria. My father and brother are members of the Roman Senate. My family is famous in Rome."

"You can choose representatives to negotiate with me. As long as your demands are not particularly excessive, I can meet your conditions on behalf of Rome."

After Heifeis finished speaking, there was still silence outside the meeting hall.

This reaction was a bit beyond Heifeis' expectations.

After hesitating for a moment, Heifeis couldn't help but put his eyes in front of the door.

He looked outside the door until he could see the scene outside the door clearly.

Infinite fear suddenly surged in Heifeis's heart.

"The damn Syrians are pouring asphalt. They are preparing to burn us to death. Everyone rush out. We must stop their ridiculous behavior."

Hearing Heifeisi's words, the Roman soldiers also panicked.

Several Roman soldiers quickly stretched out their hands and pulled open the door of the meeting hall, but the moment the door was opened, an orange-red flame suddenly rose and swept towards the door.

The two Roman soldiers reacted slowly for a moment, and were immediately engulfed in flames, letting out a burst of heart-rending screams.

Accompanied by dozens of Syrians, Zhang Lu walked into the ruling hall.

Along the way, Syrians bowed down to pay tribute to Zhang Lu.

It can be seen that the Syrians have regarded Zhang Lu as a messenger of God, and they respect Zhang Lu from the bottom of their hearts.

"Evil Rome is suffering the wrath of fire, but the faithful followers of the gods have achieved great victory today."

"To celebrate God's blessing, you can move all the things here."

"But remember one thing, things must be divided equally to ensure that every brother who takes action can enjoy the blessings of the gods. Remember that the gods you believe in are the fairest and most just."

"Also, spread the word about today's events and tell all your Syrian brothers. The Romans are evil and can be defeated."

"We will do justice to God and kill them all."

As the Roman Consulate in Damascus was easily captured.

The enthusiasm of the Syrians to resist Rome suddenly became more intense.

Countless Syrians rushed into the streets. They looted all shops related to the Romans and killed all the Romans they saw.

The Five Dou Rice Cult also took advantage of this incident to develop rapidly in Syria.

As soon as chaos broke out in Syria, Zhang Lu received orders from Wei Chu and quietly headed to Egypt with a group of religious guards.

It's time for the Egyptians to be in chaos next.

"Oh!"

In the Roman Senate, an elderly senator hit the table heavily with his short staff.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, my son Hepheus was killed by Syrian thugs while serving the Roman Empire. The Roman people living in Syria also suffered from the crazy massacre by the Syrians. The Syrians are now all crazy. I implore His Majesty the Emperor to send troops to Syria immediately to suppress the Syrians."

"We want the Syrians to feel the wrath of the Romans, and we want those bitches who try to imitate the Syrians to know that the Roman Empire cannot be offended."

The elder who spoke was named Gervais.

He is the father of Heifeis and a well-respected old man in the Senate.

As Gevas finished speaking, everyone in the Senate nodded together.

The senators all believed that the Syrians should indeed be taught some lessons.

Of course, the senators did not want to stand up to Heifeis.

Mainly because the value of Syria cannot be ignored.

The Romans levied excessive taxes in Syria and obtained a lot of money and food from Syria in recent years.

And there are many senators who like Syrian girls and boys.

But after listening to Gervase's words, Severus shook his head gently.

Everyone frowned when they saw Severus' attitude.

"I have decided to temporarily abandon the provinces of Syria, Egypt and other provinces. The major provinces on the east coast of the strait quickly gathered their strength, and then gathered all their forces into the Asia province."

Severus' words exceeded everyone's expectations.

When Gervas heard this, he was the first to stand up and said loudly: "I object. I can't understand His Majesty's decision. I think this is a very cowardly behavior!"

"I also object. Rome is now in an economic crisis and abandoning Syria and Egypt. We in Rome will face more economic problems. By then, domestic taxes may have to increase to [-]% to barely maintain Rome's various expenditures."

"Your Majesty, we Romans cannot be killed in vain!"
