The system has to be used even if it is pulled

The story of the Colosseum spread quickly throughout Rome, and countless people came to see the bravest warrior of Rome.

However, after seeing the giant beast in the cage at the door, people left trembling.

......

In the gloomy sewer, the dark world, the flickering lights, more than twenty people in black robes and masks were arguing with each other.

"No, I don't agree! We can't start a war now. Our chances of winning are less than 50%!"

A tall man said calmly: "Less than 1000% chance of winning? Now is the best chance! The Samnites have tied up Silanus' army in the front, they can't come back! We have more than people, and we have even bribed most of the Velletri garrison. If the war breaks out, we can quickly capture Velletri, and then use it as a base to directly attack Rome!"

The other men in black fell silent, and the firelight flickered.

"We must start a war! You are the most suitable consul! The Roman garrison is no more than a thousand! After we join forces with the garrison in Velletri, we will have nearly 3000 soldiers. Now Rome is very empty and the people are dissatisfied. This is an opportunity! When you become consul, or even dictator, think about it, how much power we will get. What are you still hesitating about?" The tall man in black obviously touched the others with his last sentence.

"Then let's start the vote. I agree!" said in a hoarse voice a man in black with a graying beard at the back.

When everyone saw their leader stand up, they thought about it and expressed their agreement.

......

Zhao Yuanlang sat quietly in the room, cross-legged, practicing martial arts continuously. The airflow in his body became faster and faster. He felt like a lion crawling in front of him. He felt the aura of his master becoming more and more powerful. He couldn't help but be more careful and kept his head tightly lowered.

It was very quiet, no birds singing, no insects chirping, which was very abnormal. Then, hurried footsteps were heard outside.

"Nemian, we have guests." Zhao Yuanlang signaled the lion to hide by the door and slowly stood up.

The door seemed to be opened violently, and then countless arrows with cold rays of light shot towards Zhao Yuanlang.

Zhao Yuanlang nimbly dodged this wave of attacks and kicked up the table in front of him, using it as a shield to block more arrows.

Following a sharp bird call, a group of men in black rushed into the room waving weapons.

They didn't expect that there was a lion next to the door, and the last few men in black were torn to pieces by the lion in an instant. The first few were smashed to the ground by Zhao Yuanlang with a table, and then Zhao Yuanlang stepped on them one by one and broke their necks.

There were more urgent bird calls coming from outside the door. As the footsteps faded away, Zhao Yuanlang led the lion slowly out of the room.

The originally quiet and peaceful city of Rome was now ravaged by fires in many places, and some men in black were fighting with the guards.

It seems that civil war has broken out, Zhao Yuanlang knew this plot. But what Zhao Yuanlang did not expect was that the civil war would turn out like this. Wasn't it agreed that the rebels would attack the city, why was there also a wave of assassinations?

This is an opportunity, a huge opportunity. Zhao Yuanlang smiled and turned back into the house.

......

The unrest in Rome was over, and the men in black were all killed, but many places in the city were still on fire, and many senators died. The most serious incident was that the civilian prosecutor was hanged last night.

Soon, a message came that another prosecutor, the noble Junius, started a civil war, declaring the Roman Senate a dictatorship and tyrannizing Roman citizens, and using high taxes for squandering instead of war. Consul Reinus was incompetent, and was captured when he advanced alone, and did not promptly assist Consul Rutulus, which led to Rutulus' death.

Junius even gained the support of more than 20 senators. Although he failed last night, he had already escaped from Rome. He would gather a large army, purge the Senate, and bring a bright future to the Roman citizens.

Near Velletri, the rebels gathered, and Junius had already led the army to march towards Velletri.

Silanus, who was far away in Capua, was unable to suppress the rebellion immediately. The Senate was in a panic. Finally, someone remembered Zhao Yuanlang, who was still serving as a tribune in Rome.

Zhao Yuanlang looked at the man who read out the Senate's order and couldn't help feeling happy. The opportunity had finally come. He could finally lead an army on his own and secure the position of military tribune. As long as he performed well, he might even be able to become governor or even consul in the future.

Although the civil war broke out and the Senate issued many orders to reduce taxes and even appease the people, the whole of Rome was still extremely chaotic, and many citizens surrounded the Senate.

Zhao Yuanlang walked out of the Senate Hall step by step, and couldn't help sighing in his heart. The Senate really didn't give any more power. Velletri was captured by the rebels, and the Senate still tightly grasped the power of the Roman City Guard, without giving any more troops! Sure enough, the demise of the Senate in the later period was not without reason.

Everyone couldn't help but get excited when they saw Zhao Yuanlang coming out of the Senate. After all, Rome still had its first warrior, the conqueror of giants, Hercules, and the great tribune, no, the military tribune, Lord Lantes.

Zhao Yuanlang took command in a hurry and frowned continuously as he looked at the pitifully small number of troops under his command.

Although the enemy had only 500 men, Rome had to maintain law and order on a daily basis, so the garrison could not move. The Senate only gave itself one battalion of troops, only about men, and most of them were new recruits. It was somewhat difficult to stop the enemy from advancing into Rome.

Zhao Yuanlang blew a slogan, and the lion Nemian came roaring, a gust of wind blew, and many Roman citizens trembled, looking at the giant beast crouching in front of Zhao Yuanlang.

Zhao Yuanlang rode on Nemian in a cool manner, activated the primary morale, looked at the panicked Roman citizens at the steps and shouted: "Rome will win, long live Rome!"

Many citizens seemed to be infected, standing up straight, puffing out their chests, and shouting along.

"Rome will win, long live Rome!"

......

Velletri, the rebels had already taken the town by internal and external forces. Junius looked at the sand table in front of him and said cautiously: "It seems that the Senate is indeed corrupt. They actually sent a young man to lead the army to defeat us."

A tall man said disdainfully: "Humph! What the most courageous man in Rome? Bah, wait till he meets me and I'll teach him a lesson!"

"Okay, Constantinus, although he is a young man, he has made great achievements in battle. Moreover, he was able to defeat the giant lion, which shows his bravery. We must not take him lightly." Junius said, stroking his slightly graying beard.

"Speed ​​is of the essence in war! Constantinus! Pass my order, gather the troops and march to Rome!"

.......

In the dense forest east of Rome, Zhao Yuanlang looked at the lurking army and felt helpless. They had no morale and their weapons were not sophisticated enough.

If the Senate had followed its advice and fought head-on, this army would have been quickly wiped out by the rebels. Fortunately, his suggestion was adopted.

He would lead this large army and wait for the rebels to attack Rome, then go around behind them, give them a heavy blow and defeat them.

As a team of scouts returned, Zhao Yuanlang quietly ordered his troops to move out, as the rebels had arrived and were preparing to attack from the south.

All he needed to do was to pick on them, break through their formation, and drive them back to Velletri.
