Chapter 448 The First Plane (11)

The Carthaginians plundered the city of Rome, and every minute there was a change of energy. Because the p001 plane was completely closed, the accumulated energy would eventually be converted into huge energy, and then a plane channel was forced to open.

As for the other end of the channel, you don’t need to pay too much attention. Countless planes and countless space-time constitute countless possibilities, but they will never reach another closed plane. Therefore, as long as you leave p001, Huang Xuan and Mr. Conmas can naturally leave through their plane base.

However, the accumulation of 210-multiple power is obviously not enough.

Hannibal was full of confidence and conquering the city of Rome almost meant the victory of Carthage. With this victory, he could almost win, whether in Rome or Carthage. However, when he saw Huang Xuan walking over, Hannibal felt a little uncomfortable.

The invincible commander hates the most invincible enemy, not the powerful enemy.

Huang Xuan looked at Hannibal's beautiful face jealously. This guy tended to be Beckham. Even though he didn't look like him at all, his figure and face inevitably reminded people of other side jobs.

"Mr. Hannibal." Huang Xuan still called out with a smile.

Nick also translated it into ancient Carthage in Gugududu. Hannibal walked over with the reins and said, "Huang Xuan, this time you have given Carthage great help, and you will be Carthage's eternal friend."

Huang Xuan smiled faintly and said, "I also like powerful friends like Carthage."

If it were Mr. Commas, he would have made a straightforward request at this moment. Only non-academic travelers like Huang Xuan would waste time talking to the indigenous people.

Hannibal heard what Huang Xuan said about "power" and smiled, saying, "I have sent someone to search for the homes of the elders. After about a while, I can give you the remaining 3,000 tarants."

"Don't worry." Huang Xuanyan said insincerely: "Are you going to catch all the upper classes of Rome in one place, or support some people?"

"It's not sure yet." Hannibal seemed reluctant to talk about this with Huang Xuan.

A smile flashed across Huang Xuan's lips and said, "It's better to make a decision quickly. Cyrus will bring the army back in at most two days."

"What?" Hannibal's eyes were almost wide open, and he brought the army back, which was a huge difference from Carthage's voluntary evacuation from Rome.

"According to our agreement, you should evacuate at that time." Huang Xuan said that, and left on a horse, leaving Hannibal with a difficult and angry look on his face.

Cyrus would lead his army back to Rome as a Roman officer, of course, to return with the reputation of expelling the Carthaginians, and then, like Marriott, he could try to run for a dictator or consul as a non-noble, plus the only Roman army in his hands, and thousands of Tarrants of funds, in this Roman city that was looking forward to victory and revenge, he could do whatever he wanted.

Hannibal watched Huang Xuan slowly fade away in surprise, but he was still a sober and knowledgeable politician and military strategist after Huang Xuan said all his requests, Hannibal understood Huang Xuan's plan.

Just as Cyrus said to Huang Xuan that day, a Rome without alliances could not fight against Carthage. For Huang Xuan, he did not need a Carthage who could fight against Rome, a failed Rome and a Carthage without victory, which might gain more power.

That night, Hannibal's order was issued.

Countless Roman noble families were uprooted, and most young people were sold as slaves. Mercenaries from Africa and southern Europe were looking forward to such a day, which could be plundered and acted freely...

Huang Xuan stood in the courtyard of a residential house in the center of Rome, listening to the shouts outside the courtyard, his face was as heavy as water.

Mr. Commas handed him a glass of wine and smiled and said, "Wine is the favorite of the Romans."

Huang Xuan said "thank you", then took it, looked up at the sky, and became silent again.

Looking at Huang Xuan's appearance, Commas sipped the wine, breathed a sigh of relief, and said slowly: "My first successful trip was in r130. That time, we were searching for mercenaries, and we had a total of 27 travelers."

As if he was talking to himself, Mr. Commas said slowly: "You know that you are catching mercenaries very slowly. They will run to the mountains, with dozens and hundreds of people in groups, making you waste energy. That time, our team leader went to find the two largest chiefs in the local area. We gave the chief cattle and sheep, and asked him to exchange for slaves, one sheep for two slaves, and later it was raised to one, and a cow could exchange for five slaves. We used fast-breed sheep and fast-breeding cattle. That time, we exchanged more than 20,000 slaves in total."

Huang Xuan turned his head and glanced at Mr. Commas, not knowing why he said this.

Mr. Commas finished the wine in one breath, shook his head and laughed: "Later I learned that in order to capture those slaves, the two tribes fought each other and killed more than 100,000 people, almost half of the entire tribe."

Huang Xuan squeezed out a smile and said, "There may be more than 100,000 people here today."

"If Hannibal had been like you said, it wouldn't be." Mr. Commas said, throwing the cup out of the yard and smiled: "The planes that are qualified to participate in resource allocation will not be used as resource allocation, and the threshold for qualifications is constantly rising. Without resources, they can only be used as resource."

Huang Xuan was stunned when he heard this, but he was unwilling to think about these questions. He turned to Qiqiai Ai and said, "Why can't Hannibal?"

"The eagle released should not be too full, otherwise it will be too lazy to prey; the eagle released should not be too hungry, otherwise it will never come back." Mr. Commas said the proverb of the r plane, and Nick carefully translated it.

At midnight, the city of Rome really became quiet.

Carthage fought a battle with the Roman soldiers on the return journey. Huang Xuan sat in the house in the Roman city. Looking at the Carthage soldiers on the energy screen and Hannibal's formation, he absolutely believed that if Cyrus showed a little bit of mental retardation, Hannibal would annihilate the corps without hesitation.

Fortunately, Cyrus is also a veteran of old Jiang.

In the evening of that day, Carthage slowly left behind the broken city wall with their slaves and spoils. History has great inertia. I think they will stay in Italy for a long time in the future and continue to bully the children of the Roman alliance.

Cyrus, sitting on a tall horse, slowly drove into the city of Rome.

There were no flowers, no applause, only the numb Roman residents.

Seeing this scene, Huang Xuan felt particularly uncomfortable - what really made him feel uncomfortable was that it reminded him of Mr. Commas's words. The planes that are not qualified to allocate resources can only be allocated as resources. The current p112 may still be an unexplored virgin belt, but who knows that a man will come one day.

Cyrus led his Roman soldiers to shout loudly, saying some slogans that Huang Xuan could not hear clearly, just as they were still in the captive camp.

Huang Xuan turned around and looked at the yard, where there were 3,500 tarantes of gold piled up, almost 100 tons. Even Huang Xuan had seen so much "created" gold for the first time, but he was somewhat disappointed. 100 tons of gold was only more than 5 cubic meters, which was too little. Of course, in terms of wealth, it was huge. Without Huang Xuan's participation, this time the Punic War ended, and Carthage had to spend all of it, so he could barely get enough for Rome's 10,000 tarantes.

"23 omnipotent." Mr. Commas stood behind Huang Xuan and said, "If Cyrus can become the consul as he wishes, we should be able to make up 250 omnipotent, which is almost enough."

Huang Xuan said sadly: "Hannibal's trip should also cause sudden losses. In addition, the subsequent sudden losses, it should be enough for us to stay for another month."

"The plane channel is already showing signs of loosening, but it really doesn't work. We can output energy with all our strength, and the accumulation of these energy stops should be enough."

The two of them were talking, and a loud shout suddenly erupted in the city - it was Cyrus who was giving a speech.

The Romans fully accepted Greek culture, including their oratorial culture. Although Cyrus was not good at this, when what he said could stimulate the Romans, the masses' interest was also rekindled.

Huang Xuan opened the energy screen and re-released Cyrus' speech. The first sentence he said was: "We in Rome still have more than 100,000 warriors overseas..."

In the Roman city, which reduced one-third of its population, nothing is stronger than the hope of revenge. Cyrus suddenly grasped the Romans' psychology.

Mr. Commas seemed to have expected it, and said, "He is good at doing this." He is naturally Cyrus.

Huang Xuan returned to the house silently. He could also contact his home and other planes and exchanged according to the time. He had been away for 4 days, and the affairs of the three and seven days waiting for Cyrus' election campaign need to be sorted out.

Mr. Commas also returned to the room. His face was fine, but if you pay attention, there were a lot of worries on his face. He had just obtained the right to the R-series plane and left suddenly, and it was not surprising that anything went wrong.

...

The Roman consuls had great power and could be compared with the dictatorial monarch. Of course, the Romans also saw this. They chose two consuls to limit the term of the consuls to one year, effectively extending the lifespan of the republic.

However, Rome in history was a victorious Rome, and they had almost never encountered real enemies, not Macedonia, not Carthage, not Egypt, and Rome's enemies are always the Romans themselves, and the dispute between imperial and republic is the mainstream.

The Romans have always been smart in the choice of consuls - most of them are smart. They choose two consuls every year, and two excellent consuls are both nobles. The nobles are so keen on politics. They do not open film and television cities, play golf, do not build companies, or teams, so that the Romans have such a rich choice.

Originally, the little officer who had died in Cyrus's comrades-in-arms should have no chance. It would be great if they were not "deprived of political rights for life" because of the captives.

But in the face of life and death, the Romans' choice suddenly became narrower. In addition, Huang Xuan deliberately dealt with some prominent politicians. Rome in the ruins naturally tended to be a "little officer" who held the military power of 30,000 people. He was able to give Rome a sense of security for a large loss of wealth and population. Under the deterrence of the army, the newly elected Senate also failed to show the strength of a party to fight. They lost their last chance.

The assets of 3,500 tarantes immediately made the city of Rome enter a smooth reconstruction. Rome has always had a tradition of nobles spending money to subsidize citizens and finances, and it became more and more intense in the Caesar period. Interestingly, people rarely asked where the consul’s money came from. Usually, the Caesars people regarded private treasury as national treasury and national treasury as private treasury. Although Cyrus did not understand the propaganda policies of later generations, he still understood the principle of controlling public opinion and using money to promote it.

Soon, including the Roman soldiers recalled from overseas, were dressed up as the backbone of Roman society, and the so-called defeated or fugitives were even more selectively forgotten.

The republic Rome inadvertently stood at the intersection of tyranny and democratic politics.

Huang Xuan had just finished his daily conversation with Jiao Sun, Li Shenggang and others. He tasted the authentic taste of video conferences. Mr. Commas walked in and said, "Cyrus is elected."

"Now?" Huang Xuan had just asked a question, and heard a mountain-like shouting outside the house.

"252,000 people have accumulated." Mr. Commas said quietly.
