Ancient Rome: Beginning With The Legionnaire

Chapter 145 Questioning Begins

Sura rushed over with a group of his followers in a hurry.

As the powerful faction of the Senate, he has always paid great attention to his image.

Every time the Senate issued an order, he would arrive on time.

"What happened to Phillips?"

Su La, who had many years of experience, naturally knew that the Senate would not casually call the elders to the scene if there was anything to do.

As soon as Sura came in, he asked the consul Phillips unceremoniously.

Phillips is no stranger to such a strong veteran like him.

"Drusus is dead!"

Phillips turned and pointed to the corpse lying in the middle of the parliament.

Although his body has been riddled with holes from the Roman dagger, his face is still vaguely discernible.

"Is Drusus dead?"

Su La looked at the most difficult tribune in Rome in disbelief.

I've dealt with him quite a bit before.

Some of Sulla's motions were also denied by the stubborn tribune.

But Su La never thought that this guy would be assassinated.

Just take it as a test of your own life.

577 "Yes! So this problem has become very serious!"

Phillips said lightly.

Sometimes, he would have liked to strangle the tribune to death.

But the tribune was friendly with the Italians.

The Italians have recently sought Roman citizenship.

And Drusus supported them and obtained Roman citizenship.

In other words, it can be said that the entire Italians are standing behind Drusus.

previous indications

It is precisely because of the existence of Drusus that the rebellious Italians are suppressed.

This is why the Senate allowed Drusus to be re-elected.

As long as Drusus exists, it will give Italy a false impression.

Roman citizenship can still be obtained without bloodshed.

"So has the murderer been found?"

Since Didius did not communicate with Sura beforehand, Sura also wanted to know who did it.

"As for who the murderer is (ccej), there are only suspects at the moment. Brian has caught a batch of killers! When he comes, we can just confront him!"

Brian only told the two consuls that he suspected Didius, because he had captured the soldiers of the 7th Legion.

And the only person who can mobilize the Seventh Legion here is Didius.

Not long ago, Didius had a confrontation with Drusus.

However, Drusus had a veto in his hand, directly denying Didius's proposal.

"The man we captured belonged to the Seventh Legion!"

Consul Sextus said coldly, he has not had a good impression of Sura all this time, and Didius is a member of Sura's group, how could he give up this opportunity to attack the other party this time?

Didius' garrison was not in Italy, but in North Africa.

Therefore, his legion in Rome is also extremely limited.

In order to assassinate Drusus, almost all his direct troops were sent out.

Hearing this, Sura fell into deep thought.

The assassination of the tribunes was no small matter.

If the people are not given an explanation, then it is only possible to lose popular support.

More importantly, this guy Drusus is very special.

As a Roman nobleman, he mingled with Italian civilians all day long.

What the hell is that Didius guy doing?

This guy Drusus is very dangerous, almost no one dares to touch this guy.

But he didn't expect that his companion sent someone to assassinate Drusus, and now he was caught.

Soon, Didius came to the Senate under the leadership of Roseaus.

Rossousus gave a Roman military salute to the two consuls, then bowed and retreated.

He is the deputy head of the army, but he is not qualified to stay.

All those who are qualified to stay on the scene are veterans!

"Master Didius, you are finally here!"

Speaker Cassius looked at Didius with a strange expression on his face.

In fact, he was also forcibly captured.

Although he didn't spend time on boring things like women's bellies and bars, he was old after all.

Today is his rest time and asked to come to the Senate immediately.

"What is the Speaker looking for from me?"

Didius found the corpse above the parliament halfway through his speech.

Drusus

The people he sent out today! Indeed, they have killed Drusus, but why didn't they come back to report, and why did Drusus' body appear in the parliament?

A series of questions lingered in Didius' mind.

"Now that everyone is here, let's get started!"

Sextus looked at the nearly 150 elders present.

The most important Didius is here too, so let's start asking questions.

"My lord Didius, where did your former soldiers go?"

Didius's legion was in North Africa, so he only brought two dissatisfied formations back to Rome.

Even so, the Roman law was very strict, and each legion leader who returned from outside could not carry more than 100 soldiers.

Just like Brian before, he only brought 100 soldiers back to Rome at most.

Didius brought his soldiers in twice, a total of 150 people.

However, 150 people are nothing to do in this huge city of Rome, and the consul and the security room just turn a blind eye.

"They're in the barracks!"

Didius said without changing his face.
