Chapter 21 Mitra Banner (2)

In this way, the thousand cavalry of Mindaz stayed in the snow outside Taktun for almost two days, but did not see the enemy's vanguard. So Prince Parthia carefully used the scout and explored the four sides for a long time. Finally, he confirmed that Scipio had run away. If nothing unexpected happened, he should have abandoned the plan to meet with the Copper Shield Army and went to the south of Xiaoya.

But before Mindaz sent cavalry to report the situation, Li Bida and two legions had arrived at Taktun City. They were like heroes. Adiana, who received the news of the disappearance of the bronze shield army, was overjoyed. After learning that Li Bida had sent a legion to attack the old land of Bendu, he was even more excited. He personally led a guard of honor to welcome the Roman cavalry commander outside the city gate. The trumpeter, the minister, and the cheering citizens filled the streets entering the city. When the cavalry commander Li Bidaus appeared, the whole atmosphere reached the highest level.

Anna proudly saw that in the ranks of the Victory Army, the carriages were loaded with spoils captured from the Copper Shield Army, curtains, animal skins, military flags, shields, carriages, pottery jars with coins, etc., and they were then displayed in the square of Taktun. This scene was unforgettable for the citizens. After learning about Scipio's escape, Li Bida also specifically allowed the soldiers of the two legions to rest in this city for two days, evacuating fatigue and then chasing them. However, the soldiers were not allowed to prostitution, nor did they set up camps, and only temporary distribution of spoils was allowed.

In Adiana's palace in the northwest highlands of the city, the queen treated the cavalry commander with kindness, but Li Bida made a backhand move at the banquet: When the maids and the chefs placed a plate of delicacy in front of Adiana, the queen took out the silver chopsticks gracefully. She first casually picked up a few pieces on the plate of fish food and put them in her mouth. But soon she couldn't stop because of the extreme deliciousness.

"Strange, it's obviously a very ordinary tuna?" the queen said in a question, and then she looked at the cavalry commander who was lying on the couch with curiosity and looking at the night snow outside the terrace.

"This is the tuna produced in the sea of ​​Propentis outside the Libida Castle, and the meat is more delicious than all other sea areas. Remember Adiana, this is produced on the sea of ​​Libida Castle." The other party replied proudly.

"I'm just asking you, the ingredients of this dish. Why be so arrogant?" Adiana said in a disdainful tone.

"Persian onions, olive oil, feta cheese and salt soup water." The cavalry commander also answered in a disdainful tone.

"But the tuna produced in Libida Castle is the most essential core, right?" At this time, Adiana quietly walked behind him, put his arm around his neck, and said in a gentle tone, "Of course I can understand the pride of the bi-eared pottery jar. The fortress and city belong to you, unique." After that, she played the trick of pulling the earlobes on both sides of Libida, "Hey. I will give you that Mitra banner, which can be hung in the palace of Libida Castle in the future. You can entertain me at that time. Let's ride horses to the other side of the strait, and hunt on the Olympus Mountain in Asia."

"Oh-oh-oh, that's wrong. I'm just a dictator's deputy now, not a king. The Romans hate this title the most, so where did the Winter Palace come from? In addition, I don't plan to take over this banner as a gift, but to be handed over to Dick's trophies as a spoil." Li Bida also held Adianna's slender hand and said with a smile.

"Why bother with the name of the Winter Palace and Summer Palace? You build a 20-around Stadia in Nicomidea, with a villa with a bath, garden, and hunting ground? In this way, we can raft in the artificial sea lake in summer, and stay in Mount Olympus in winter, drink in the courtyard, and watch the servants dig out the sausages of ice chips. Promise me, I have to take two months every year to meet me." Adianna went further and gently bit Li Bida's left ear, which was still scarred, and said coquettishly. Later, she suddenly thought of Li Bida's next words, so she asked with anger: Why should Mitra's banner be given to Caesar? Shouldn't that be our trophy?

Li Bida cleared his throat and explained, "Not only will you hand over the Mitra banner, but you will also put together five thousand soldiers and horses immediately. I will provide ship transportation and send it to Caesar's tent in time for him to send it."

"I'm already pleasing to Caesar enough, aren't I?"

At this time, Li Bida turned around, held Adianna in his arms, and touched her beautiful and white forehead like a cicada. "But it's not enough. Caesar is a leader who is generous to his friends. Queen Eubertnia has the best of her. She was the first to get up and make things difficult for Pompei during the Roman Civil War, but she had to start and end well in everything she did, right? Caesar will go to Egypt and Syria soon. As long as you can send money, ships and soldiers in time, Caesar will give you more favorable rewards."

"I don't lack money." Adianna's forehead was touched, which was her weakness. Her beautiful eyes were immediately exhausted and confused by the burning of the slightest, and said gruntingly.

"No, Caesar will grant you the land of Pagama and the land of Sinop, and you will no longer be as simple as a quarter-final queen. And most importantly, it will be connected with my Libida Castle. Do you not want Nicomedia to have our palace in the future?"

"The palace, the palace...our palace is of course good, of course good." At this time, Adianna naturally understood Li Bida's inner ambition, then stood on tiptoe and couldn't wait to kiss the man. The snowflakes outside the terrace were rustling, the fires in the palace were shining, and the marble floor reflected the sweet reflection of the two embracing each other.

At this time, in the city of Sinop, Stratonis woke up from a nightmare screaming. She dreamed that her husband was covered in blood and his body was pecked by a group of crows. Then, with tears in her eyes, she looked at the sleeping Prince Bosphorus, covered her wailing chest, slowly struggled to come to the outdoor room, and ordered the maid and slave to prepare a car, "I will go to see General Achilles, the commander of the navy."

"But it's late at night now, my queen." Several eunuchs accompanying him reminded carefully, meaning that Stratonics naturally needs to avoid suspicion. After all, in the palace, the fastest circulating in the palace was rumors.
