"What is the use of your hand-raising vote? Everything is so rash, so chaotic, you are all the scum of the country." - Cicero's attack on the People's Congress in "Defend Flacus"

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Subsequently, the Claudi Party was completely different from the previous style of pig storm, but continued to line up the wooden spear array and surrounded the Gladiator School.

Then someone kept firing a pot of fire with a simple ejector behind the spear array. In the continuous flames and explosions, the iron bar in front of the archway door was trapped in the sea of ​​fire. The gladiators guarding there could not bear the high temperature and poisonous smoke. There were figures running and rolling everywhere in the rooms. Niera, who was helpless, was protected by several entourages, ran out of the secret door and headed towards the Capitola Mountain. As long as they escaped there, someone would naturally protect him.

At this time, some people in the Claudi Party held a willow shield to cover the people of the locksmith guild and slowly approached the iron gate of the arcade that was still incomplete. Then the people of the guild stretched out their straight hook and sickles, and pulled them lightly, pulling them out many holes. Everyone rushed in and soon occupied the Gladiator School, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack.

In this battle, the Claudi Party won a great victory, which severed the shame of the previous defeat. However, Niera fled, which made the civil guards who were still recovering from the Temple of Virtue. He decided to continue to pursue the victory and take a big shot, killing the entire Triali faction behind the gladiator school.

So he found "Amborodes" to discuss this matter and asked him to send more legion soldiers to participate. There were still regular soldiers joining. Only in the fight can victory be guaranteed. But Amborodes refused. If too many soldiers were mixed up, they would sooner or later be discovered by the Senate and the people. If Triali or Ignagius caught the handle, my triumphal style would be ruined, which would be too much of a loss.

Finally, "Amborodes" suggested that such a thing would be left to the street hooligans of the Claudi Party to solve, and cool down for the time being. The small-scale fighters, and then, while the Triali faction gathered together, seized the main information and concentrated them to solve them.

According to such subordinates, on the next market day, the Claudi Party and the Triali Party began to fight fiercely on the streets at all corners and gatherings. Some were public speeches and debates, some directly staged all the martial arts, and some took the opportunity to set fire and loot. The most serious victims in the Subra District were, and 80% of the houses were burned. The Caesar's house was spared thanks to the protection of fifty gladiators and armed slaves hired by Li Bida.

Katu and Cicero abandoned their past grudges and repeatedly called for severe punishment of these professional hooligan forces in public. As a result, they did not play any useful role, but instead "harvest" many bricks and sword blades. Someone publicly threatened them when they gave speeches, "In the past, they just burned your mansion and drove you out of Rome. If you don't know the current situation, you will deprive your whole family of life!" Cicero was a little timid and retracted to the restored mansion on Paladin Mountain in a few days, claiming that he had escaped the world and then focused on studying philosophical issues. Only Katu was honest and fearless, and he was still shouting in the Temple of Concord: Look at the bloody farce on the streets of Rome now. This is actually a knell of death for the Republic. If the gangsters use it for warlords and ambitious people, then we will warn us whether to help the evil, or make up our minds to modify the campaign procedures, so that bribery and vote buying behaviors will be hidden.

But Li Bida also secretly invited the knights to hold a secret emergency meeting at the Villa Pulaima. At his instruction, Bejanis had become a standard "double-sided spy". Cicerose gave him five hundred drachma, and Li Bida stuffed a thousand. Reselling true and false information back and forth became his specialty. So when Xiao Katu proposed a motion to modify the election procedures, Li Bida immediately responded. There were dozens of knight representatives who occupied the important part of the meeting. He seemed to have replaced the position of the former Dark Night Monarch Crasso, and encouraged everyone, "You must know what conditions do we knights rely on to get rich? That is, rely on power, exchange them for contracting projects, or go and do it.

Save as a tax collector. But now I heard that Xiao Jiatu was going to amend the law, and even claimed that during the election of the consul and the civil guardian, the knights were strictly prohibited from giving any money to the candidates, and the candidates were strictly prohibited from giving any gift to the people. Then, it is not difficult for everyone to imagine how the people and our interests would be secured if this motion turned into a law. Now someone would clarify the water of the entire fish pond, but!" As he said, Li Bida hit the table with his fingers heavily, making a sound like gold and stone, which was exciting, "Everyone knows that I know that I am particularly clear. Take the fish pond of Pulaima, the best in the city of Rome for example. How can we raise fat big fish with too cold water quality?"

The Knights immediately formed an emergency fund and collectively took out five hundred tarants. Half of them were used to bribe the Senate members, objected during the motion, and half of them used to provide material stimulation to the Claudi Party members, asking them to work hard on the streets.

In Alba's Pompei villa, Catho and Terriali, as well as many Pompei generals and members of the parliament, they also gathered together here, "The money must be taken out. You must know that now is the decisive battle between the Republic and the dictatorship, which is equivalent to the life-and-death battle between you and Caesar in Rome. If you stayed behind closed doors at this time, then Claudi will become the king of Rome, and Caesar will be supported by the army outside, and all justice and peace will be completely subverted.

.” This was not what Xiao Katu took the initiative, but Terry Ali. He grasped the great and vanity of Pompeii and pointed the finger at the conflict between him and Caesar. Pompeii was also in a dilemma at this time. His wife, Julia, the daughter of Caesar, had a longer pregnancy cycle than any woman. The priest of the Temple of the Isis divined the childbirth and concluded that "the white cloth would bring the real greetings of the mother god."

It was this so-called prophecy that made Pompei very angry. After a long wait, he decided to cut the mess. In addition, the chief slave Demitrius was also secretly exclaiming, "Your real danger is not Gatu, but Caesar. He now has more than ten elite legions in Gaul, and there is no Crasso in the center. We are already in the same position as the other side. It is better to take action first. My plan is to first eradicate his agents Claudi and Libida in the city, and then join forces with Gatu to death through the laws of the Republic, disband his legions, declare his war illegal, take this person back to Rome for trial, and then let Cicero nail him to death, and completely strangle him and his power, just like the second Catilin."
