Roman Slave Owner

"alright, I understand."

Caesar said helplessly.

"I will send 600 cavalry to protect you, pay attention to safety on the road."

Li Wei said.

"Yes, General."

Caesar said.

Not long after he left, soldiers came in.

"Report to the general, and the former Syrian King Antioch asks."

Hearing this, Li Wei's face showed a deep color.

In the past, Antioch and many kings of small countries have been begging him to help restore the country, but he did not agree, but now it is time to negotiate terms with him.

"Let him in."

Before long, Antioch walked in radiantly.

"Great General Livi, I heard that you drove away Mithrada, on behalf of the Syrian royal family, I came here to express my sincere congratulations! May the God of War Mars be with you forever!"

Hearing this, Li Wei showed disdain.

Syria is subjugated, and where is the Syrian royal family.

"If you want to restore the country, I am afraid you think too much, I will not allow Syria to restore the country."

Li Wei said.

Antioch's expression changed drastically, "General, what do you mean? Don't you plan to attack Armenia?"

"It's hard to say, if he rejects my proposal, I will attack Armenia 80% of the time."

Li Wei said.

"Didn't you restore Diotalus? Why can't we also restore the country."

"At the time I needed a strong ally, so I allowed him to restore the country. Now my allies are enough, so there is no need to restore Syria."

Li Wei said.

"Then what are you going to do with Syria?"

"Set up the provinces of Syria."

Li Wei's words were like a sharp knife, piercing Antioch's heart, and Antioch's face turned pale.

The gods were so unfair that Syria was first annihilated by Armenia and then designated as a province by Rome.

"but..."

Li Wei said.

Hearing this, Antioch returned to his soul immediately, as if he had caught the straw, and quickly asked "but what?"

"If you can make merits in this battle, I can let you rule Syria in the name of mandate rule, but you still have to obey the orders of the Syrian governor, and the territory of rule will be greatly reduced."

Li Wei said.

Armenia’s territory is really too big. With the help of these subjugated kings, Armenia will easily fall apart.

"Mandate?"

Antioch said suspiciously.

"Yes it is."

Li Wei said.

Some provinces of the later Roman Empire were mandated. For example, Palestine still had its own ruler, but had to pay taxes to Rome and obey the governor's orders.

This is completely unimaginable in the East, and there are often kings in the country.

Hearing this, Antioch was extremely moved.

Although there is a Syrian governor on his head and he has to pay taxes to Rome, it is better to be a Syrian prince than to be a subjugated monarch.

"In addition, there are several conditions."

Li Wei said, for example, the sacred religion must be established as the state religion and become his protector. The conditions are similar to those of Galicia.

After saying this, Li Wei began to see off the guests.

"Go back and think about it."

"Okay, I gave the general a gift this time, and I hope the general can accept it."

Antioch Keqiang said with a smile.

"Then I will accept it on behalf of the soldiers."

Li Wei said.

Since someone gave gifts, he was not polite, just to subsidize military use.

In fact, he never accepted bribes because he was very rich, even richer than these kings.

Moreover, he always kept Scipio's fate in his mind. Generals with too much credit would often be hated or even suppressed by the Roman Senate, and would definitely check his past.

Antioch heard what he meant, sighed and left here.

But he hadn't given up his heart yet. The reason why Li Wei agreed with the founding of Diotalus was because he gave some special gift. Maybe he should ask Diotalus.

Capua Batitas Gladiator Training School.

Some gladiators were dining while boasting how brave they were in today's game, easily beheading the enemy.

Some looked sad, because two of them died in the arena.

Curius and Spartacus lined up for a meal while listening to their chat.

After these days of getting along, the two of them have become best friends.

"Unexpectedly, two people died. The arena is really cruel."

Spartacus said with a sigh of relief.

"Yes, most gladiators will die within a few games, and those who survive are truly strong."

Curius said, "It's a pity that General Li Wei doesn't run a gladiator training school. Otherwise, it would be nice if he could be a gladiator under his hand."

"why is that?"

Spartacus asked.

"Because General Li Wei originally stipulated that his gladiators could be free as long as they could win ten victories. Some reported that they were free after only participating in two games, which is simply enviable."

Curius said with a look of fascination.

"Why would he do this?"

Spartacus asked.

"Who knows this? But because of this he is called the most merciful slave owner."

Curius said.

"It's a pity that what kindness finally got is betrayal, so he stopped opening a gladiator training school."

Kress interrupted at this time.

"Oh, why don't I know, what the **** is going on?"

Curius said.

"This incident went crazy in Capua. It is said that after Levy defeated King Numidia in the expedition to Africa, he led the guards in the process of hunting lions and was kidnapped by two of his former gladiators. So Li Wei hated gladiators very much from then on."

Kress said with a complex expression.

These gladiators like Li Wei are very fond of them, and many gladiators are willing to become his subordinates, but unfortunately they are all mixed up by those two gladiators.

"It turns out that there is such a thing, I don't know."

Curius said.

"Li Wei certainly doesn't want to admit this kind of shame~www.novelmt.com~ He said that he was visiting privately on Weifu at that time."

Kress said with a laugh.

Spartacus was also silent for a while, he had never thought that Li Wei had this kind of past.

"Okay, this is your meal. Today you performed very well, the host said, add more meat to you, and you can also enjoy a small pot of wine."

At this time, the serving slave put some rice into Kress’s bowl, added a few pieces of meat for him, and also brought him a small pot of wine.

"Hahaha, I can drink again."

Kress laughed and said, after taking over the wine, he drank gulps.

Spartacus and Curius swallowed hard as they watched the fragrant pieces of meat and wine.

Since becoming slaves, they have never repaid the taste of meat and have never drunk wine.
