Daqin: Reign in the world

Zhao Tuo and several people were confused.

It took me a long time to figure it out.

In Rome, there were no emperors and kings. The highest status is the Senate.

The Senate, on the other hand, was responsible for electing a consul of the Great Ramon to command the entire Roman army. Kind of like the generalissimo of the world.

It’s just that the term of office of this consul is short, only one year. And not renewable.

So similar elections are held once a year.

The so-called election, in fact, is just based on the prestige and exchanges between the nobles?

The three hundred senators of the senate, representing three hundred large families. The consuls of the Great Rome were also chosen from these three hundred.

For this way of ruling Rome, Zhao Tuo and the others were quite speechless.

The consuls change once a year, will the country not be messed up?

And it seems that as long as you prepare more slaves, you can bribe other senator families. Then win the gladiator competition and show your excellence in martial arts, and you can mix with the archon.

The Romans seemed to believe that whoever could capture the most powerful gladiators was the one most qualified to command the Roman army!

Sure enough, there is a big difference in thinking, and it is completely incomprehensible.

However, this did not affect Zhao Tuo to make friends.

For the newcomer, knowing someone who has the strength to compete for the Great Luoman Archon is definitely a good thing for Zhao Tuo, a foreign envoy!

Insect Da glanced at Zhao Tuo and made a look with him.

Zhao Tuo immediately understood the intention of the insect.

Let the interpreter speak to this Roman nobleman of the Brutus family.

“There are two people on our side, more powerful than any of your gladiators! Do you dare to call two people out, let’s fight first? ”

After hearing this, Brutus looked incredulous.

But he didn’t seem to want to fight.

“Look at your people, so skinny, people can kill with one move. What’s more, there is no color head, and it is impossible to let your people take risks. ”

Zhao Tuo could guess that the Romans could not see the worm. Zhang Zhong’s strength. But they didn’t expect Brutus to despise them so much!

And it’s not just contempt for them!

Brutus is talking about a skinny stature. This includes almost all Qin people!

After hearing this, Worm Da and Zhang Zhong were even more angry, and directly from their arms, they took out the Qin tickets they had worked hard to save. All dropped on Brutus’s face.

“Just use this as a lottery! I’m going to pick two, you get your strongest gladiator! ”

Zhao Tuo was dumbfounded.

Bet with the Romans, you pay for the Qin ticket. The point is, people don’t recognize that thing!

Zhao Tuo turned his head and asked people to move all the captured bronze objects.

Copper is hard currency, and every corner of the world recognizes this thing.

Brutus was directly dumbfounded!

The pile of bronze objects in front of him is quite a lot. But his Brutus family is not incomparable.

Brutus was dumbfounded, because of Qin Ticket, he didn’t know it at all.

It’s not just because I don’t know Qin Ticket, but I’ve never seen this kind of material at all!

This thing immediately caught his eye.

Although Worm Da was out of atmosphere, he directly dropped a stack of Qin tickets on Brutus’s face. But Brutus was not angry at all, took the Qin ticket in his hand, and looked carefully.

So thin!

So beautiful!

The writing and stamping on it can be seen very clearly. It’s better than a parchment roll to the point where it goes!

I don’t know what it is, it’s amazing!

In Daqin, when Meng Jiangnu had just made white paper, the Qin people were not so surprised.

Mainly, before the appearance of white paper, there was actually a paper-like thing called square floc.

But that is a by-product of silkworm reeling, which is produced in small quantities and is expensive. Much more expensive than parchment rolls.

Seeing that Brutus was fascinated by the Qin ticket in his hand, Zhao Tuoxin said that this was also a product that saw money.

Zhao Tuo is much more shrewd than Zhu Da and Zhang Zhong in this regard.

He stepped forward two steps and quickly snatched the Qin ticket from Brutus’s hand.

Ask the translator to tell Brutus.

“The prize of the game is this pile of broken copper. This stack of Qin tickets is not included. ”

Just kidding, the denomination of Qin Ticket is not small. The value of this stack is no less than this pile of broken copper.

The key problem is that he doesn’t know foreigners at all, and it’s wasted on him.

Who knows, Brutus turned a blind eye to this pile of broken copper. Just look at that stack of Qin tickets.

Brutus, a member of the family of the Great Roman Senate, candidate for the next consul. He doesn’t put this pile of broken copper in his eyes, what he values more is the new things that can help him build momentum.

Brutus said to the translator.

“I’m going to pick two people to compete with you. He can do it if he wants one against two, and I will make four gladiators. But I don’t want this pile of fine bronze, I just want that stack of things. ”

I didn’t expect that this foreigner was quite discerning.

Zhao Tuo looked at Zhuda.

Insect Da didn’t really care about this stack of Qin tickets, which he originally threw out. He nodded at Zhao Tuo.

Zhao Tuo handed the stack of Qin tickets to Brutus.

Deal!

The game is about to begin.

Fortunately, it has not left Quinbrook, and only in such a larger city can there be an official gladiatorial arena.

A group of people went to the gladiatorial arena.

The men and horses of the two sides add up to a thousand people.

Moreover, this game quickly attracted many locals to watch.

The Roman system was actually very hierarchical. Only nobles are allowed to enter and it is free.

Civilians can only stay outside and listen to explanations.

Even so, outside the gladiatorial arena, a large number of civilians gathered. Just to listen to a gladiatorial match.

Brutus’s gladiators, when chained by leg irons, were listless one by one.

However, once you put down your shackles, take up arms. Immediately, it came to life.

Zhuda is Zhang Zhong’s master and has relatively more experience. In the first battle, he came on the field first to observe the gladiator’s fighting skills.

Brutus’s side was a Thracian gladiator and a net fighter.

Thracian gladiator, using a small shield, and a dagger.

The net fighter uses a long dung fork with a small fishing net behind it.

Both types of gladiators are more popular. Because they don’t wear armor on their bodies, the gladiatorial fight looks more intense.

Worm comes on, cloth, iron sword.

This kind of dress, in the eyes of the Romans, seems to be looking for death. Roman gladiators, almost all with light weapons, carried a shield.

There is a shield that provides a lot of protection and increases the chances of survival.

But the worm is not afraid.

Carrying a three-foot blue front upside down, he went on the field.

Others are gambling with money, gladiators are gambling with their own lives. A net fighter on the opposite side, a Thracian fighter, saw that in the hands of the worm, there was only one sword. And still will not underestimate the enemy.
