Crassus was a little surprised at the earliest expression. He saw Li Bida so "blatantly", but just when he was about to get angry, he thought of his little Crasus. Yes, he let his son marry the noble Metra family of the military, and was preparing to let Crasus develop in the army, because he was angry enough by the word "military" in his life. When he was young, he was chased by the Marius's civilian party. Later, he defected to Sura and was ordered to recruit soldiers from the Masiren. He subconsciously asked Sura to give him a guard. Because the whole of Rome was in chaos at that time, Sura was furious and scolded him in front of many generals and said, "Now your father, brothers, friends and relatives, many of them died of the murder of the enemy. I was about to avenge them, and you are now living

Yes, ask me for an army to save his life!" This reprimand deeply hurt him, and also made Pompei and Lukulas regard him as a weak chicken on the battlefield. Although he commanded the right wing of the legion in the Battle of Corinimen, he helped Sula, who had been defeated at the time, reverse the defeat and won the final victory; although he privately invested multiple legions in the later Spartacus Sword Slave Riot, killed several rounds and round trips in Italy, and finally achieved a bloody victory; although he often boasted that "if a man cannot recruit his own army, he is not worthy of claiming to be rich!" Although... he still cannot compare with Pompei in military merits, and he cannot compete with Lukulas, and there are even signs of being surpassed by Caesar.

In Rome, sometimes problems cannot be solved by money. At least he cannot spend money and asked the Senate to arrange for him a "big triumphal" that does not exist at all. A Roman noble without a triumphal will always be a nobleman and cannot become a hero.

But the guy in front of him, who had a foreign appearance, not only had business treacherous talent, but was able to compete with him, but also had a lot of courage in military affairs. His son Crassus praised Libida in his letter, saying that he had the talent of being a general. Now many natives in Spain and Lusitania have begun to worship the King Numa he brought, and there is also an Eastern God of War named Rex Lius. Now this person openly attacks his own mind. Want to help me complete a brilliant expedition in my twilight years? Interesting, interesting.

"Dear Libidaus, I don't know what you meant. Are you worried that I will not be able to obtain the expedition or do you have no money to organize a huge army?" Crassus sneered arrogantly, leaned down and sat on the chair, meaning that Libida continued to speak.

"Of course you can qualify for the expedition, and of course you have the money to form eight to ten legions, but I have to remind you with fear and trepidation that Asia, where Pompei achieved achievements, means "extremely distant" in Latin vocabulary, but all naturalists are wrong. What is that Asia? Compared with the Seris Empire farther away, it is like a rural wild donkey stage, and compared with the giant semicircle theater built by Pompei now!" Li Bida shouted loudly. He knew that Crassus would link the glory of the expedition with economic interests, "as long as the more you can go," he said.

By the middle countries of Parthia, we can get in touch with the Ceris Empire. At that time, we will establish legion fortresses and merchant stations between Ceris and Rome, and make arbitrary decisions on trade between the two great empires. The most precious silk of Ceris was transferred from the middle countries of Parthia, and the profits they made in it were as numerous as the stars in the sky. Yes, silk is the mysterious silk! The monopoly of this goods alone, the profits of one year are enough for the total amount of 5,000 knights who have been taxed in the province for ten years.

I am from Ceris, a descendant of Ceris's war god Lius, I will not lie to you." Li Bida's words made the greedy Crassus' throat swallow loudly. Li Bida knew that his words had worked and continued to talk endlessly. "And in terms of military strength, a country like Parthia can be called weak. You have to know that it was a vassal of Armenia not long ago! In comparison, the king of kings of Armenia, a barbarian army of 200,000 was defeated by the two legions of tuna.

I participated in that war and seized the crown of Tegranis, which shows how weak Parthia is - Your Excellency, maybe five years later you will be elected as the consul again, and then in the name of the governor of the province, you will open the road to trade silk in the name of the governor of the province. There are only five legions and five! I promise that you will definitely sweep everything, and then you and your son enjoy the great triumph, and I will stay in the land of Parthia to operate trade with the Cerris Empire for you." After saying this, Li Bida's face was almost pressed against Crassu's hairless bald head.

"Apart from silk, what specialties are there in the Cerris Empire!" Crassus's questioning was like a storm.

"Many good things, there are emerald green plants with festivals that can be used to make documents and musical instruments; there are white ones called rice (Li Bida directly pronounced in Chinese), which can make wine that is sweeter than wine; there are also a rare animal whose hair is only black and white, which complements each other, and its figure is as round as a sun wheel. It only eats the first plant I mentioned to make a living - once it appears in your grand triumphal, it will inevitably cause a huge sensation, and it is definitely much more attractive than lions, elephants, and leopards."

"Can it become a new beast in the Colosseum? Can it rival lions and elephants?"

"...I think...yes...so we need five legions, and as long as you achieve my wish this time, I will help you with related matters in five years." Anyway, it was a fool, and Li Bida no longer cared about the scene of "Panda" fighting, and whether the details of whether the Romans who were used to blood were favored by the blood.

"Five Legions?" Although Crassus' tone was a little cautious, overall he still recognized Li Bida's plan, but was considering that it would be more appropriate to have five legions or ten legions.

"Yes, I promise you to be your deputy general by then, but I am most afraid that your army would be full of recruits and mercenaries at that time, so that you would be incompetent."

Crassus stood up and secretly pulled Libida to the curtain at the corner of the house to avoid the eyes and ears of the slaves. "At that time, do you have a way to get a large number of veterans for me? If so, we will make a deal, and I will operate it properly on Lukulas."
