Chapter 315
At this time, Hippia is somewhat similar to Yingyu. He is now at the stage of trying his best. He believes that if he is given another 5 years, or even more time, he will clean up the corruption of Rome and build a brand new Roman Empire.

But now Hippia also knows that this is not easy to achieve, after all, there are too many ills in the Roman Empire.

Moreover, reforms cannot be solved simply through military means. He loves Rome deeply and doesn't want to see Rome fall into civil strife, and besides the civil strife, these countries are all staring at me.

Although they have been controlled by Rome outside the territory, and the size of the country is not as good as before, there are still brave and good fighters in these countries. After all, their national character is full of aggressiveness and aggressiveness. Son.

Hippia also believes that as long as it takes a long time, he can completely calm down the small surrounding countries and establish a unified Roman Empire, but the reality is completely opposite to what he thought.

At this time, he slowly stood up.

Hippia's body was slightly sluggish, and he was a little tired.

Then he said slowly: "I respect the opinions of the Senate and the chambers."

Although this sentence is a bit helpless, it truly expresses the current predicament of Hippia.

Hearing what Hippia said, the senators and congressmen knew that Hippia had compromised, and their enthusiasm dropped instantly.

Hippia went straight to his own good mansion after leaving the Palace of Parliament.

This is located in the inner city of Rome, and the inner city is completely different from the outer layer.

There are not a few people wearing red and purple armor here.

Of course, the larger number must be slaves.

Since its founding, Rome began to expand around, especially in North Africa where they took a large number of slaves.

And those who buy the most slaves are the wealthy families in these inner cities.

In the Roman Empire, there was a rule that all the captives who destroyed the opponent's country were rushed to Rome as slaves and assigned to the nobles.

Crowds of slaves saluted Hippia as he walked through the streets of the inner city.

Although Hippia was respected, he was inevitably exhausted physically and mentally.

When he returned to the dormitory, a white-skinned, beautiful and long-legged woman in white gauze and armor walked towards Hippia.

The beauty has blond hair and a shawl, her eyes are like the deep Aegean Sea.

The lines of the slender figure are clearly visible under the light.

She walked slowly, leaned on Hippia and said, "What annoys our consuls so much, the Senate or those annoying members?"

Hippia put one hand on the beautiful woman's shoulder, and looked at the beautiful woman affectionately.

Yes, she was the wife of Hippias.

Although ancient Rome was a slavery system, monogamy was indeed practiced throughout the country.

However, there is only one legal wife, but the adoption of female slaves is allowed by law, no matter how many, you can do anything, because slaves do not have any legal protection.

But the premise is that he has so much money and the ability to support so many people.

So Hippia's wife is naturally not a commoner or a slave.

In fact, the reason why Hippia did not take action against the Senate and the Senate is also because the major families are not simply isolated.

It is a relationship of mutual marriage, so there are people from other families in these six major families.

They are intertwined and very complicated, and their purpose is to achieve the sustainable prosperity of their nobles.

"My goddess, wouldn't that include your uncle and your elder brother?"

Said Hippia, who was staring at his wife.

Her wife's name is Rose, and she is a member of the four major families. One of the reasons why Hippia respects his wife is because of her background.

Rose said with a smile: "They are not as smart as my husband, that's why they said that, you say so."

"You must have more troublesome and difficult things."

Rose touched his husband's thick lips, and put the iced grapes in Hippia's mouth.

Then they walked together under the big tree in the courtyard.

Rose walked to the deck chair under the tree and sat down, then she helped Hippia to sit beside her, and after a while they lay down together.

At this time, Ross said casually: "Isn't it these stupid high-level officials who must have appeared in the sky above the city of Rome today?"

"Did the words of the king of the country ranked first in the empire in the Heavenly Dao Emperor Book upset our consul?"

Hippia was already very bored at first, but when Ross mentioned Qin Shihuang's message again, he became angry again.

Immediately, he took a glass of iced wine from the fruit plate held by the servant next to him and drank it in one gulp. It seems that the principle of one drink to relieve a thousand worries is universal in the world.

After Hippia finished speaking, he held his wine glass tightly and said: "The east is too far away for us to know, but we told the people who came back from the Kingdom of Seculius that there is a powerful empire in the southeast of them, called the Phoenix Kingdom." .”

"That kingdom was so powerful that the war elephant cavalry shrunk to point out an almost invincible presence."

"The number of infantry alone is half a million."

Rose was shocked when he heard the news, and his face was horrified for an instant, not as calm as before.

The War Elephant Legion is actually not unique to the Phoenix Dynasty, and Rome is simply not comparable in number to the Phoenix Dynasty.

The number of the Luo Zhanxiang Legion is only a few hundred people.

These war elephants are not specially prepared for war, they are also used when building city walls in peacetime.

Ross had never seen a scene of war elephant soldiers fighting, but he had seen how huge the war elephants of the war elephant army were.

Tens of thousands of elephants were thrown into a war, and the shock of this scene was unbelievable to Ross.

In addition, there is the number of infantry in the Phoenix Dynasty, 50!
This number is even more than all the residents of Rome, and this is a legion sent to the battlefield. According to the custom that there must be a man in charge of farming in the family, the number of people in this country is ten times or even a hundred times the number of troops.

The territory of the Roman Empire was large, but its population was pitifully small.

The number of troops in the Phoenix Dynasty almost caught up with the entire population of the Roman Empire.

"Is this news accurate?" Ross frowned suspiciously.

"The number of their infantry is equal to the entire population of our peninsula. Isn't this a bit outrageous!"

But Xipiah stared at his wife firmly and said, "It's no exaggeration. Although there are some deviations, there won't be too many discrepancies."

"And our spies sent news that the Phoenix Dynasty and the Great Qin Empire have already started a war, and there is a high probability that the No. 2 defeated the No. 1 Phoenix Dynasty in the war. Think about how terrifying this Great Qin Empire is."
