Although the walls of Rome were tall and strong, they were extremely curved and irregular in shape. At the intersection of the long city walls, strange shapes are presented.

The whole city is different from old to new, and has strange shapes. This is because the city of Rome is constantly expanding. The old city was far wrapped by the new city wall, and many times because it needed to be expanded again, or because of the investment of goods, the city wall has been built and built, leaving the current crooked image.

Riding on a crotched horse, he stepped on the solid, straight, wide and straight Avenues of Abian all the way to the end of the avenue in the southeast of the city of Rome. As the plenipotentiary envoy of Gao Yang, Guo Jia finally entered this famous 'world capital' in the history of modern time and space. ’

Guo Jia went to Rome at the invitation of the Romans to negotiate the surrender of the Roman Empire. According to the Romans, it was a peace negotiation between the two sides, and in Guo Jia's understanding, the enemy wanted to surrender.

Originally, the Romans took the initiative to invite Gao Yang, but it was impossible for Gao Yang, as the commander, to enter the city of Rome before the army captured the city. Even Gao Yang didn't plan to talk to the Romans about anything. It was all Guo Jia's own initiative and insisted on going by himself.

For Guo Jia, what could be more than the fact that he could say that an entire vast empire could be brought down with just one of his own mouths, and that would make him famous in history? Like these people, they don't care about anything for the sake of fame for eternity, in order to leave a reputation for a hundred generations after them. Even if Gao Yang bluntly said that it was very dangerous to negotiate, he could not stop Guo Jia's burning determination.

Under the guidance of the Roman city guards in armour, armed with a scepter, Guo Jia, who was full of confidence, entered the city of Rome, the core of the Western world. Guo Jia walked in as a winner.

The avenues of Rome are lined with buildings of all kinds, unruly and crowded. Except for all the places in the castle where construction is prohibited. Every corner of the city of Rome was completely filled with buildings. Almost every building is a one-sided arcade on the second floor to grab space and sunlight. The streets are equally cluttered, full of pedestrians and mule carts. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is shoulder to shoulder.

In the city of Rome, Guo Jiaxing looked at the various signboards hanging on the walls and tree trunks with great enthusiasm. There are taverns, and there are clear buildings. There are inns, apartments, cattle pens, and gambling houses. The content is even more varied. There are not only words, but also all kinds of pictures.

Guo Jia walked along the avenue, and when he passed a hill, he saw a section of the place made up of mass graves. The hillside is full of dense tombs and tombstones. Guo Jia and his entourage, as well as the Romans who guarded them, also saw a huge newly dug pit on the side of the hill as they passed by.

A few masked men on the avenue pulled a cart full of corpses. With a whirring sound, all the corpses were poured into the pit. The citizens of Rome who have died in the recent civil strife will be accompanied by the rotten bones of the stinking water in the pit. until it becomes one.

The breeze came slowly, sending a stench that smoked straight to the brain. Guo Jia frowned, and looked at a famous brand standing next to the avenue, "Paladin Mountain." ”

Ever since the Western Expeditionary Army entered the Rest Empire, Guo Jia had clearly known that Gao Yang's ultimate target was the Great Qin Empire, which was far to the far west. From that time on, Guo Jia, who was extremely ambitious, began to learn all kinds of knowledge of the Great Qin people through the captured high-ranking slaves, understood their various situations and knew them one by one. This is the first and foremost Chinese word and language.

While the other generals were having fun while resting, Guo Jia spent his time learning new knowledge. This is also one of the necessary conditions for him to take the initiative to come and persuade him to surrender this time.

The city of Rome was just too big.

Over the course of hundreds of millennia, this magnificent city has grown in size as the empire has expanded. The chaos of the city's buildings was also caused by the continuous expansion over a long period of time without any proper planning.

Guo Jia walked all the way and saw those beautiful courtyards standing faintly on the hills everywhere. It must have been where the powerful people of Rome lived. Of course, there are more and more slums at the foot of the mountain. As for the best places in the whole of Rome, all the temples were built. In the city of Rome, the temple was not only a place to worship the gods, it was also a bank for the Romans. Of course, there are other functions, so I won't talk about them if they are not topics.

After passing through the old city walls at the foot of Mount Evindini, Guo Jia finally entered the Grand Forum at the foot of Capitol Mountain. It is an area of administration, a temple and an open square. It was the heart of the city of Rome and the political activities of the Roman Empire. It is also the end point of Guo Jia's trip. Here, countless Roman citizens looked at these people from distant and foreign races with mixed eyes. They know what the situation is now. The pride and glory of the past made it difficult for them to choose to bow their heads

"That's a lot of people here." When Guo Jia strode with his head held high and confidently stepped into the Grand Forum of Rome. In the blue sky and white clouds 10,000 meters above his head. A large shuttle with the filtered visual stealth system turned on is hovering there safely. Looking at the densely packed crowd on the monitoring screen, Yuan Dian sighed with emotion.

"This is the center of political activity for the Romans, what is there to do if there is no one?" Gao Yang sat diagonally on the wide leather sofa, his legs crossed. Shake the glass with amber whiskey in your hand casually. His eyes were a little lazy and he looked at the holographic projection that occupied almost the entire wall deck, and said with a smile, "Those are the real citizens of the Roman Empire, and they have the right to vote." The daily life of these people is to sell their votes during various activities. When you get money, you go everywhere to be chic, and when you have no money and no activities, you go to the banks of the Tiber River to get relief bread. They were the purest Romans, but they were also the real cause of Rome's decline and fall. ”

"It's understandable to sell votes, but you can also vote on things like surrender?" Origin asked curiously.

Gao Yang shook his head slightly. After taking a sip of whiskey, he smiled and said, "Vote, you know." These Romans never thought about surrendering. Hannibal beat them so badly that almost all of the standing army in Rome was killed. Nor did they think about surrendering. ”

"Then what did they invite you to negotiate?" Yuandian's tone was full of incredulity, and he asked, "Do you want to ask you to go to the Tiber River for a barbecue?" You probably won't accept any other conditions than surrender, right? After all, you now have an absolute advantage in Zheng. ”

"Hey, hey." Gao Yang laughed, shook his head slightly, and said with a smile, "The Romans will never surrender." They were supposed to want to spend money on ransom, or to cede some provincial colonies in exchange for a temporary truce, and a chance to recuperate and regroup. ”

"Then you still let Guo Jia negotiate?" Yuan asked puzzledly, "Not only is it a trip in vain, but it is also very likely to be dangerous." After all, the city of Rome is in chaos right now, and it is only superficially settled under the coercion of your army. Guo Jia is not surprised to encounter anything. ”

"If someone else invites you, you have to give a response." Gao Yang gently turned the transparent wine glass in his hand, staring at the amber wine turning back and forth in the glass. said indifferently: "This can be regarded as a kind of mood between civilizations where you come and go." As soon as you come up, you will tear off your clothes and be shirtless to be hard, that's what barbarians do. The Chinese nation will rule here in the future. It is better to leave an impression of civilization than to be treated like a barbarian. ”

"Barbarian?" Yuan Dian laughed and said, "You are the most advanced and high-end civilization in this era, okay." If you are barbarians, then what are these people? Neanderthals? ”

"Alright." Gao Yang hooked the corners of his mouth and chuckled, "Don't talk about this, Guo Jia has entered." What exactly did these Romans want to sell? ”

A senator dressed in a splendid silk robe, with a crown of fringed laurel leaves on his head, and his hair and eyebrows were already snow-white, trembled and walked up to the wide podium. After looking around at everyone around him with cloudy eyes, he coughed and began his long speech.

Severus, dressed in the Emperor's fine attire, sat at the head with the co-consul Arnubis, dressed in purple robes. However, the two neither spoke nor looked at each other. It's as if the person next to you doesn't exist.

Behind the two of them were their own henchmen, the generals, and the important people of Rome who followed their masters. And the senators of the Senate were divided into two factions and sat separately.

Arnubis was in a terrible mood, and he was not at all interested in listening to the long, boring opening speech, full of flaunting the past glories of the Roman Empire.

At this moment, all his energy was on Guo Jia, who was listening attentively to the opening speech. Isn't it a very shameless thing to show off your former glory in front of an enemy who is so powerful that he has already conquered the city? The more you talk, the more humiliating it becomes.

As for the release of Severus, Arnubis is also a choice in the middle of nowhere.

Desperately powerful alien armies have been slaughtered under the city of Rome. The Romans in the city, on the other hand, were still killing each other, and they were evenly matched. In this case, whether it was Severus, who was full of anger because of the betrayal, and Arnubis, who was full of unwillingness, could only force the anger in his heart, so that the Romans, who were still wielding short swords at each other just now, could stand together again and cooperate against the alien army outside the city.

It's just, where can this kind of thing be so simple? (To be continued.) )
