Roman Slave Owner

Chapter 83 Forced Expropriation

Nobanus looked at him in shock, you are sure you are right, you are the admiral of Campania, and you can't even get close to the city wall.

Lutilus was also very wronged, and he didn't want to do this either.

If placed elsewhere, he is a powerful member of the party.

But here is Capua, his predecessor's fate is there, can he be careless?

Usually, he behaves according to his duties, and never gives Li Wei a chance to handle him privately.

"He's really too arrogant. I'll talk to Levi later."

Nobanus said.

This made him more determined to recruit Li Wei's three legions no matter what.

He was not at ease with these troops in Li Wei's hands, and he had to control them himself.

**

"What did you say, you want to recruit my three legions?"

In the temporary mansion of Nobanus, Li Wei said angrily.

He didn't expect that the thing that worried him the most happened after he had endured so much (thinking himself).

Was Nobanus deliberately against him?

"That's right, although I have certain advantages over Su La, but the advantage is not great. In order to quickly defeat Su La, I need the troops on hand."

Nobanus said unhurriedly.

"I don't think there is any need to do this at all. As long as you join forces with Scipio, I think you will be able to easily defeat Su La."

Levi said.

At present, Nobanus has 7 legions, plus Scipio's 8 legions against Sura are simply crushing.

"There is no need for this, I can defeat Su La with your troops."

Nobanus said.

Li Wei was slightly taken aback, but soon understood what Nobanus was thinking. He wanted to win the honor of defeating Sura.

Sulla has made great military achievements in his life, even compared with Marius.

But once he joins forces with Scipio, all the brilliance will be monopolized by Scipio.

After all, Scipio is the descendant of the famous God of War family, who is Nobanus? Also worthy of competing with Scipio for the honor of defeating Sulla.

"I object, this is aggressive. There are obviously safer ways, why take risks."

Levi said.

"I am the consul of Rome, and the Roman Senate has authorized me to conscript all Roman citizens."

Nobanus said.

Li Wei looked at him coldly, it was really shameless, and directly used the order of the Senate to suppress people.

"Actually, I think we have a lot of room for cooperation. As long as you don't recruit my legion, I will fully support you next time you want to be a consul or inspector."

Levi said.

Nobanus's eyes flashed brightly. To be honest, he was a little moved. Li Wei's strength is still very strong.

But the temptation to defeat Sulla is greater. As long as Sulla is defeated, Nobanus will be famous in the Mediterranean, and he can easily be elected consul even without Li Wei's support.

Just like Marius defeated Jugurtha and Scipio defeated Hannibal.

"I am very humble. As a Roman consul, I must consider the interests of Rome."

Nobanus said apologetically.

What the hell said it was like a saint, Li Wei cursed in his heart, but he really couldn't do anything about him.

"I hope to leave at least one legion in Capua. My property is here. I must let them protect my property. This is my bottom line."

Levi said.

"One team is enough."

Nobanus thought for a while and said.

"At least one legion, this is my bottom line."

Li Wei didn't budge.

"Too many legions, I can't agree. And with the Capua garrison here, I can't think of anyone who can get the recipe for white sugar from so many people.

"

Nobanus said.

Li Wei looked at him viciously, and the anger in his heart could no longer be suppressed. This is because he didn't take him seriously at all. It was the Capua garrison who stole his sugar formula last time.

Nobanus smiled. He didn't believe that Li Wei dared to disobey his and the Senate's orders.

"Are you sure you want to do this?"

Li Wei said angrily.

Nobanus smiled and said, "I hope you can understand my difficulty."

Difficult your mother B!

I will make you regret it!

Li Wei roared in his heart!

But his face was calm, "In this case, I obey the order of the Senate. By the way, I still have something to do, so I will take my leave first."

After speaking, he turned and left directly.

Nobanus didn't expect him to agree so easily, he really is a child, his legs go limp when he touches the consul, Nobanus thought contemptuously.

In the dark of night, a palace in Capua is brightly lit.

Li Wei looked solemn, and the military tribunes, centurion, and retainers below dared not speak. They hadn't seen Li Wei like this for a long time.

One after another, senior military officers came to the hall, and then sat down in their seats.

After seeing all the people, the conference was finally held.

"Just today, the consul called me over and said that he would recruit our legion."

Levi said.

His words immediately attracted everyone's attention, after all, this is something that concerns all of them.

"He wants to transfer our legion to attack Sulla, and he plans to install his own people in the legion. Our military tribunes and senior centurions will be replaced by those noble sons of Rome."

Levi said.

Hearing this, there was an immediate commotion below.

It is clear that every consul will have a large number of noble children following them. This is not only an opportunity to earn military merits, but also a chance to spend money with one's qualifications. In the past, no military experience in Rome was forbidden to enter politics.

They often occupy the best positions, such as Julius Caesar who was awarded the position of military tribune when he first joined the army.

Li Wei's military tribunes and chief centurions were all of civilian origin, how could they compete with those nobles.

"How is this possible?"

"Why do they do this! Those damn nobles!"

"Too much, those bastards!"

"..."

Most of the warriors have a vulgar character. After being provoked by Li Wei, they were all filled with righteous indignation and began to greet Nobanus and the nobles.

"As for the instructors, instructors..."

There was a trace of pity in Li Wei's eyes, well, there was no such establishment in the Roman army.

"All abolished!"

Although they had already made some psychological preparations, the retainers were still in an uproar when they heard this.

"It's too much!"

"I fuck the son of a bitch!"

"..."

Li Wei was very satisfied to see everyone's anger, this is what he wanted to see.

He took a sip of the wine leisurely, and then said: "Nobanus treats us like this, should we just let Nobanus do as he pleases?"

"Of course not, I think it might as well be the other way around. At worst, we go to Su La."

Someone stood up and said.
