Infinite Anecdotes

"Then you also think that Yu's decision is right?" Nero's thinking speed is also amazingly fast. He was still miserable just now, but now he just turned his eyeballs, and they immediately brightened up. I am in good spirits.

"No, I still think my way is safer, but..."

"only?"

"Since it's your choice, I will support you no matter what and help you do your best." Tang Cheng said so, wrapping his arms around Nero's slender waist.

Happiness overflowed from the corners of his lips uncontrollably and condensed into flowers. Nero raised his chin and closed his eyes: "Prove your words."

Tang Cheng smiled slightly, obedience was better than respect, and he whispered a reminder in Nero's ear: "Your Majesty, don't forget the promise you made to me yesterday.

Nero bulged her mouth with a reddish complexion, as if she was blaming Tang Cheng for ruining the atmosphere, but she still complied with Tang Cheng's request, asking her plump breasts at that time to give him a full body spa. As for the aftermath , everything goes without saying.

314. RO-MA

The location where Nero and the others ambushed the Celtic queen Boudica belonged to Aquidania, which is now the central part of France, and Hermello II also pointed out that the headquarters of the United Army, where the Holy Grail is located, is in Spain The hinterland of China is actually only a few hundred kilometers away from here.

If you ran all night, it would only be a day's journey. Even if you camped overnight, you would definitely be able to arrive the next day.Because Spain and France are two bordering countries. Of course, strictly speaking, at this point in time, this is not Spain, but the province of Tarragona, and the entire Iberian Peninsula is under the rule of the Romans. .

Here, as in their colonies elsewhere, the Romans established a Doge's Palace directly under the Roman Emperor.

"I remember that the governor here seems to be that guy Galba." Nero said so while riding on the horse, looking at the surrounding scenery all the way.

Because this operation required secrecy, the route they took avoided cities and villages.This road is naturally full of beautiful scenery of natural mountains and rivers

During this period, although human activities involved a wide range of land, there was not much that could be used effectively. They would build cities in places with rich soil and water, and then concentrate on activities around the city, while most of the roads and countryside in between. The original natural features are maintained, which is why people who travel during this period often encounter wolves and bears. Only in some places that cannot be crossed by manpower will there be facilities such as artificial suspension bridges and stone dams.

But leaving these aside, in terms of city and population alone, the governors of Gaul and Spain have always been the fat vacancies in the colonies of the Roman Empire. Meat, each session must be extremely prestigious or prominent to hold this position.

Galba that Nero mentioned just now is one of them.

"Galba..." Tang Cheng, who was riding beside Nero, said the name casually.

"What's wrong?" Nero felt that there was something hidden in his words.

But Tang Cheng just shook his head: "No, it's nothing, I just feel that the name game is inexplicably familiar."

Nero didn't think too deeply, he nodded sincerely and said, "That old guy is quite famous."

Those who are familiar with European history will know that this Galba is actually a veteran with outstanding military exploits, but what made Tang Cheng feel embarrassed was not his feats in the past 60 years, but according to the original history, he will be in the 8 He led his army to march into Rome a year later, took over the position vacated after Nero's death and proclaimed himself emperor. He was also killed by the Otto mutiny that rose at the same time half a year later, and died in the Roman Forum. It is said that he was Nero's disgraceful successor--of course, the latter was more than twice Nero's age.

"I don't know if that old bastard has surrendered. He better be dead, otherwise Yu Fei will have to hang him on the cross." Nero said through gritted teeth.

She does have a reason to take revenge on the other party, although she probably doesn't know what it is now.

However, El-Melloi II, who had a certain understanding of the enemy's intelligence, said at this time: "Galba said he is dead."

"How did you die!" Judging from Nero's surprised reaction, most of what she said just now was not true. Although she kept saying that she wanted to hang the other party, she might still have some thoughts in her heart, hoping to rely on Galba. The old guy hid and didn't surrender, maybe he was just waiting for the opportunity. If this is the case, the emperor will forgive him for a while-Tang Cheng felt that Nero might think so for a moment, because that The old guy was a good fighter, and he had been a soldier all his life. Perhaps Nero felt that it would be a pity to kill him.

But now that I heard the news of the death, it was a hundred and one, but it was a sentence from Er-Melloi II that aroused Nero's interest. He said: "When the emperor of the United Army ruled there, in order to control the army and the people there, Galba was quickly killed, but Otto, who was the governor of Portugal, surrendered with his troops before the other party launched an attack."

"Damn it, Otto is a bastard, Yuyu trusts him so much!" Nero gritted his teeth and said bitterly. The reason is that Otto was actually Nero's favorite, and he had been trying to win over Nero in the past. In the end, he made her happy, and changed to a Portuguese governor.

But Nero is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Generally speaking, Portugal is located farther west than Spain, and the coast is not full of opportunities as it was in the 18th and 9th centuries. Instead, it has to face natural disasters such as floods and typhoons all the time. Therefore, Portugal is far less developed than Spain. Wealthy, not to mention enjoying life here, but Otto has consumed a lot of energy to participate in government affairs, and unexpectedly got the inexplicable evaluation that the Roman emperor sent a capable person to govern.

Regardless of whether Otto appreciates it or not, Nero regards this as a great favor. When she heard that this person betrayed her, she immediately showed a cannibal expression.

"Should we hang him immediately after we catch him?" Tang Cheng asked jokingly.

But Nero said no unexpectedly. Just when Tang Cheng was a little surprised, Nero said angrily like an enraged lion: "I will send someone to row a wooden boat to the middle of the sea. Then tie two stones to his feet with iron bolts and throw them down!"

That's not bad, Tang Cheng thought, because it felt like he was approaching the beach, so did he change his routine?

In fact, after a day of traveling, they are now extremely close to their goal.

Maybe this road is not as hidden as they imagined (I still encountered some villages on the way, but Nero followed the advice of Tang Cheng and El-Melloi II, let them go, and bought food with gold coins , to gain the favor of the people), but from another perspective, even if the itinerary is exposed, the two troops led by Xiang Yu and Leonidas I respectively from the north and the east line want to arrive at the It was impossible for the combined army to catch up with them before the castle.

From this point of view, it might really be a good choice to follow El-Melloi II's plan and directly attack the enemy's base camp. After a little more travel, they will reach the end of their trip.

At noon, they stopped by the river beach, just ate some dry food in a hurry, and were preparing for the upcoming battle.The weather is not very good, the sky is always densely covered with clouds, lingering, it feels like it is going to rain, but it has been such a dreary weather.

When the army commanded by Nero and the others finished their rest and arrived only two kilometers away from the joint army headquarters, the wind finally started to blow in the field.

The strong wind blows the strong grass, causing waves of leaves to spread out to the other end of the horizon. From a distance, you can see a dense straight line out of the magnificent city, which is an army formed by a sea of ​​people. Under the leadership of a general, he came riding slowly.

Nero took the lead in reining in the reins and stopped on a mound that was convenient for charging (it is advantageous for cavalry to be on a high ground, but because it is located in the European plains, it is actually not that high), poked his head and looked forward. Zhu asked, "Who is here?"

Cities in this period were generally built on open plains, and the distance between the two sides was flat, without any shelter. Therefore, with the eyesight of Tang Cheng and Archer, both could see each other, but Tang Cheng shook his head resolutely here, and refused to answer Nero's question, because even he himself found it difficult to describe what he saw.

Soon, this appetizing puzzle was unraveled by the enemy's initiative to come to our side.

Nero saw the figure of the traitor Otto among those people, but before she could speak loudly, a muscular man (hentai) wearing a belt tights like the dark Tong Dawei stood in front of the enemy's formation. Put your legs together, open your hands, make a gesture of praising the sun, and shout: "RoooooooooMa

Nero and the others couldn't help frowning and looking at each other, suspecting that this was a patient who had escaped from a mental hospital. When they didn't know how to deal with it, this man with bronze skin and blood-red eyes made a pose to show off his muscles, raised his With his wrist turned into a claw, he said, "I am Roma!"

As if Nero was struck by lightning, he seemed to realize something, and he was beyond shocked: "Could it be that you are the founder of the empire, the founding king Romulus!"

"That's right!" Romulus turned around and changed into a posture showing off his back muscles: "I am Roma, you...

"Yu is the fifth emperor of the Roman Empire, Nero-Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus." As a respect for the ancestor, Nero did not dare to neglect, and immediately reported solemnly Put your full name on it.

"That's right!" Romulus pointed at Nero, "You are Roma too!!"

Nero opened his mouth wide, and someone beside him couldn't help covering his mouth with his hand, and was kicked by Rin on the other side.

Seemingly noticing Tang Cheng's expression that wanted to laugh but couldn't, Romulus turned his bright red eyes to him again and asked, "Who are you?"
