Chapter 4 Fury (2)
Then, the entire riot that avenged Caesar really swept the city of Rome. Many elders were extremely frightened to arm the slaves of their houses and locked the gates of the houses to resist the crazy looting and burning.
Brutu, located on Capitoë Mountain, sat on the steps of the temple like a prisoner, looking at the flames and smoke in the squares below, rubbing his hair with his hands in pain, six feet away from him, Dihemoth also looked like a devastated zombie, looking at the distant sky, not knowing what he was thinking.
Only Etius and Casio are still active, and they must come to clean up the current disadvantage. "We must continue to persevere now, and don't worry, the Senate is completely on our side, as long as we delay time."
"Poppei's two sons, and Rabinus, are the objects we must win over, and the Spanish governor Tlureas is our man. As long as they can be pardoned through the Senate and join forces with Tlureas' legions to return to Rome, then Li Bida is not afraid." Kasio said, "Don't forget, Dihemoth and the four legions of Shannan Gaul."
"Don't mention Diheimos, his reputation is already stinking." Atius whispered, "Immediately allocate the provinces and divide this guy into remote areas to cover up people's eyes, otherwise our camp would be stained with stench by him, and he would give Brutu a more stable position. By the way, in Sardinia, the governor Marclus, who was originally responsible for the suppression of Balearic, and the financial officer Maximus, who was in charge of the position of the capitalist Maximus? They were both from Pompei's camp before, so it would be no big problem to invest in us!"
Kassie Jo thought for a moment and nodded, saying that the envoys who went to persuade them should arrive soon. In addition, they were stationed in the province of Nebogaul. Otherwise, there would be General Galius, who was guarding the area of Egaul and Aquidanni, and his position was also very shaken. He was also the Pompeii party camp, but later he joined Caesar and Libida. "Libida is the elector who took office as commander of the army. Will Galius consider this relationship?"
Just as these people were discussing each other, Brutu suddenly stood up and walked down the Capitoer Mountain with a famous personal slave. Kasio looked at it and was surprised, "Marcus, you should know that it is very dangerous now."
"I have heard what you just talked about. You are preparing for war. Are you going to have the next civil war? Want to completely destroy all the remaining ruins of Rome and let the residue and ashes of the Republic float into the sea? No, I must stop this catastrophe." Brutu stood there, without looking back.
"Without military armed support, Li Bida and Anthony will not listen to your suggestions at all. Don't be so naive about Brutu!" Kasio also persuaded him with some angrily.
"My good friend. When you persuaded me to stab Caesar, that's not what you said. You said that only I can give freedom to the people of Rome, but now you finally admit that it's just to make naive me do innocent things?" Brutu turned around and said with a very sad look. This sentence actually made Casio speechless. Then the philosopher smiled and said, "Don't worry, the mob will not kill me, at least I will go to my mother to see it."
At the foot of the Sevilla mansion, Brutu met a group of mobs shouting to avenge Caesar. They were all holding various weapons, many of which were dripping with blood. When the leader saw Brutu, he surrounded many people, "Why did you treat Caesar like that? Aren't you a despicable traitor like Dihemoth?"
"No, how Caesar is not important to me, the most important thing is that I and Diheimos never forget that we are all from the Brutu family, and I just did something that anyone named Brutu would do." Brutu's face was very calm and explained to the people around him, "If you think you have the power to replace the law and ethics, then kill me here just like others!"
The mob of the leader stared at Brutu and then grinned with yellow teeth and smiled indifferently. He said to the other accomplices, "Let go of this poor young man! He is just a simple idiot. Maybe all heroes are like this. Sometimes it is difficult for you to tell the difference between them and madman. We don't have to kill him, just ask his mother to punish him!" After saying that, the leader shook the iron rod in his hand, and then laughed and left. The others pushed Brutu on the spot. Another woman spat thick phlegm on his face and scolded him, "If I were your mother, I would have sent you to the pile of dung that was abandoned babies, which is more suitable for you."
When the mob left, Brutu's personal slave stepped forward to wipe away the thick phlegm on his face, but Brutu refused, and then he walked into his own courtyard.
Sevilla was sitting on the ground like a dementia in a black shawl she was wearing. Her empty eyes looked at her son who was walking in. Then Brutu knelt down at her mother, holding her mother's feet in her hands, kissing and sobbing, and then the two of them were speechless for a long time.
"You killed two of my favorite people, one named Julius, the other named Brutu, the other is my man, and the other is my son." Finally, Sevilla said in a hoarse voice.
"Because I didn't consider only personal emotions like you, Mother." Brutu also tried to defend himself.
Then Sevilla kicked him to the ground, "Get out, maybe it was the wet bastard of Kasio who bewitched you, maybe some evil spirit invaded your heart! Did I have ever nurtured you like a paranoid person when I was pregnant for ten months!" After saying that, Sevilla completely collapsed, she burst into tears, tearing Brutu's hair and clothes, "You might as well go back to me, just go back to my belly, aren't you the one who feeds me with my milk? Are you the beasts and birds by the Tiber River that feed you? Are you? You have grown up?
Yes, bewildered by the idle philosophical sticks, deceived by the meaningless concept of the republic, they want to kill Julius, why don’t you go by yourself, why should you pull you up, God! They are going to torture me to death, right? What I regret the most now is that I am born with your uncle as a sister and brother, so you should not marry Portia as your wife. This family is like a stagnant water, shackles everyone’s normal kindness and kindness, making you feel that happiness is a sin, and makes you hate everyone, hate, kill, and kill regardless of emotions!”
Brutu, who was beaten to the point of bruising face, dared not argue, but continued to hold his mother's feet and did not dare to let go. (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
