Chapter 7 - Legion Mining!

Facing Brian, as the deputy commander of the army, Lucius and Rex made a standard Roman military salute.

Put your right hand on your left shoulder first, and then wave forward.

Seeing the other party saluting, Brian also reluctantly made a Roman military salute.

In order to maintain the position and prestige of the military, these small etiquettes must be observed.

"Okay! Dear Announcer Lucius, what news have you brought this time?!"

As a confidant of the legion commander Kateus, every time Lucius comes to convey the command and opinions of the legion commander.

"Sir Brian, the commander of the army wants to understand your purpose of mobilizing the troops of the three brigades?"

Lucius's tone was calm, and he didn't dare to look directly at Brian.

Not only he but the centurions behind Brian were also curious about Brian's purpose.

With their strength in their hands, it is not enough to challenge the mighty Tarago tribe.

What's more, just now, Brian also let go of more than 100 people from the Gaul tribe, which made the centurions under him bewildered.

"Ahem! I mobilize so many troops, of course, I am stationed here!"

Brian cleared his throat and said in the words he had prepared.

"Standing here? Are the Gauls going to attack our army again?"

Lucius asked puzzledly.

Sneak attack on the Roman Legion.

This is Brian's usual method.

Every time a Gaul was caught, it was said that this was a Gaul soldier preparing to attack the Roman legion.

Doesn't the Senate prohibit active offence, so defence is always okay?

"Of course! Just yesterday I found a small group of Gauls preparing to attack the Legion, leading the brave Roman soldiers to defeat them."

really!

The centurions around them showed their eyes like this.

"Then Sir Bryan, do you have any plans to continue the offensive?"

Lucius continued to ask.

This was the commander of the legionary Cateus who wanted to inquire about Brian.

Although Brian had only three brigades in hand, maybe he really dared to attack the Gaul tribe on the opposite side.

"Of course not, my troops are just stationed here to prevent them from attacking the legion!"

Brian shook his head.

He has always been arrogant and bold, and he didn't dare to take Thousands of people to sneak attack on a tribe with a population of over 200,000.

"That's good! I will immediately convey your meaning to Lord Legion Commander!"

Lucius nodded.

Although he knew what Brian was, he had too few troops to launch such a suicide attack.

In fact, Brian did not intend to attack.

The population gap is really too big.

"Also, this is my handwritten letter! Please pass it to the Legion Commander!"

Brian put the prepared letter into the bamboo tube, blocked the tube mouth with sealing wax, and handed it to Lucius.

Lucius took the bamboo tube, made a standard Roman military salute, then turned and left.

This time his mission has been completed, as long as it is confirmed that Brian is not attacking the opposite Gaul tribe.

"Well, all the staff will go down to the river to get me gold!"

After Lucius left, Brian turned to look at the centurion and civic guards under him.

Those new centurions and civic guards were still a little surprised.

After all, Brian blocked the news before and could not spread the matter of gold.

But things like secrets can never be blocked.

More than 1,000 Roman soldiers are now living together.

The matter of gold leaked out, it was only a matter of time.

"gold!"

"gold!"

The centurions couldn't help screaming.

And some centurions and police officers showed such expressions.

Just yesterday, Brian handed out at least two gold coins to every soldier.

This is an ordinary Roman soldier, three months' salary.

It turns out that there are gold mines in this little Hanoi.

Seeing the shocked gazes of his subordinates, Brian paused and continued.

"All the gold salvaged in Red River Valley, 90% is owned by the Legion, and 10% of the brothers can be divided equally!"

Before the words were over, Polo led the centurions to cheer.

"Sir Brian! Long live!"

Don't underestimate this little 10% gold.

According to the rules of the Roman Legion, the gold should belong to the Legion.

Brian was willing to give 10% to reward the soldiers of the Legion, so he won the support of a lot of soldiers at the bottom.

As the saying goes, soldiers who don't want to kill the legion commander are not good nobles.

Brian has always had an attempt to assassinate captain Cateus, and then he himself becomes the captain of the legion.

However, according to Roman law, the head of the legion could only be the senator of the Senate.

Now Brian is not the senator of the Senate, even if he kills Cateus, a new legion commander will come to take up his post.

In addition, Cateus has been indifferent, as if he was throwing his hand at the shopkeeper.

So Brian let him live to the present.

Once Brian enters the Senate, then it is the death of the current legion chief.

"Okay! Take your people! Let me see how much gold there is in this creek!"

Under the Red River Valley, the entire corps (only three brigades) immediately moved into action.

The Roman soldiers cut down the surrounding trees to make the simplest gold panning equipment.

The gold panning equipment for a full 1,500 people was completed in only two hours.

Then the soldiers who were accustomed to touching short swords and killing people went crazy and rushed towards the river.
