First, the priests spoke, but they were frightened, saying that in the past three days, countless unfavorable signs appeared in the sky and ground of the entire Roman city. Blood rains fell in a certain wheat field, and lightning struck several temples. A priest also swears that he also discovered that the mule pulling a cart in a shop was pregnant!

"Nonsense, take your unreliable things, get out of here." Pompei shouted angrily. Just when he had been in the past, these guys were still advocating some auspicious birds and clouds.

At this time, the elders began to feel uneasy. Some of them asked Pompei to send more people to recruit 10,000 re-serious veterans from Capua and Campenia in the south to guard the Roman city. Some also promised that they would give out one-third or even half of their wealth to Pompei's recruiters to go all over Italy, Sicily and Sardinia in the surrounding areas, to recruit any healthy men, and quickly expand the army.

"It seems that there is still a rescue in the city of Rome you mentioned." Pompei's reply completely despaired them. "Don't forget that many Eastern veterans in Campenia had their houses invested by Crassus and Libida, and their land was obtained by Caesar's legislation. Our recruiters were there, and there were no thousand people recruited so far. They all abandoned the honor of soldiers and betrayed me!"

Paulus, Cruise, Surpisius and others in the Senate were trembling with anger at Pompeius' remarks. Cruise also shouted in a sarcastic tone, "Great Pompei, you once said, as long as you stamp your feet, all of Italy will come from the ground. Then, please stomp your feet now, stand up, and stamp us!"

But more veterans were disappointed and painful. Their property and villa were all in the city. The situation was clear now. Pompey was simply to give up the city of Rome. Then there were only two roads ahead. One was to stay in the city and accept the ransom and extortion from Caesar's army entering the city; the other was to start a miserable escape career with Pompey with assets.

A cry broke out in the crowd, and many people shouted that Pompei had deceived everyone. At this time, a thunder rolled outside. Pompei turned around angrily and shouted, "Enough! Is it time for total despair? Unless all my legions are wiped out, it is time for everyone to give up. As long as you all follow me, you will sooner or later come back under the escort of our army. What is it to leave to give up Rome? Even Italy can give up when necessary. Your freedom and dignity are not the villas and money, but from your heart. As long as you can continue to muster up your courage and fight, then freedom and dignity can be with you every moment."

Then, Pompey announced that the established policy remained unchanged, and Gebinus and Dumigo continued to resist Caesar, and Marseilles and I went to command Capua's legions and ensure the shipping of the port of Brindisi. In addition, Cato, Xiao immediately went to Sicily, Surpisius crossed the sea to Sardinia, and Cicero and Etius went to Silesia, and with Scipio, they wanted to urge Dehimos' legions in Syria to come back as soon as possible.

After saying that, Pompei apologized to everyone, but still emphasized that if he wanted to really save his home, he would continue to follow him. Then, with the companion of his entourage, he left the synagogue without looking back.

It is said that in the late night, Pompei left the city of Rome, and at the Parthenon, his subordinates had a fierce conflict with Etius, a Cicero friend who came to protect the state's assets when he tried to transport away the money from the treasury. In the end, Etius protected the Holy Cu.

In the morning, Cicero, who was pale, was driving his family with many other nobles, and fled to the outside of the Roman city. When he saw Etius in front of the steps of the Parthenon, he stopped and asked his friend, "Whether to go with me to Silesia, we will go east from Brindisi Yangfan in about three days."

Etius shook his head, saying that he would organize slaves immediately and continue to protect the Holy Cut. Whether it was Pompei or Caesar, they were all the worms of the country. He wanted to defend the country's property to the death without being robbed.

At this time, Li Bida's vanguard troops were less than fifty from the city of Rome along the Avenue of Cassia. According to the progress of the army carrying equipment and marching in every day in Rome, he would be able to rush into the city of Rome at noon tomorrow at the latest.

Li Bida's rear guard cavalry moved faster and faster, gradually surpassing the infantry brigades and walked to the front of the queue. The winter sun shone on the armor and weapons of each soldier. "Play the war trumpet, and why cover the flag of the army?" Li Bida asked the flag-holder beside him loudly, and the other party replied that this was the military order of His Excellency Caesar. Because this war was not against foreign countries, it was better to block all the eagle marks, "That is a regular army, and our auxiliary army does not need this set." After that, Li Bida asked to spread the lion flag. In the brisk sound of the war trumpet, the soldiers of the Thirteenth Legion rushed to speed up.

At about the same time, Little Gatu fell ill in a mule cart, and then with the desperate efforts of the sheltered people and slaves, he was dragged out of the city of Rome. The wheels were driving on the Avenue of Aspiñon. The noise and sound of the wheels around him made him even more sad. From a military perspective, what else could he say besides accusing Pompei of being rough and unrestrained? But in politics, he was much clearer than Pompei, that is, Rome, the city that Pompei did not like, was the foundation of the republicans. Their ancestors had been quarreling and competing here hundreds of years ago. This was the foundation of the vitality of the entire country. Although it was dirty and rude, the fireworks emerged from the altars of the temples in the alleys, the endless stream of pedestrians on the streets, even the brothels with diseases and assassinations everywhere. It was these corners that formed Rome. It was never before, as it was Little Gatu was so attached to him. He had been the most
