"Anywhere, as long as one can pass through, an army can pass... ≦" - Napoleon

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Arimiron was the first city in Italy after crossing the Rubicon River and the key to the junction of the entire Roman city with the north. Whether it was Marius' counterattack or Caesar's advance, the first key to seize was it, but in more peaceful years, it was just an inconspicuous small city.

Following Mesenas's prompt, Panza soon found the young black nobleman named Alp in the city. He stood politely before the Roman consul, speaking fluent Greek, and claimed to be the loyal servant and brave warrior of Lebidaus.

"Then what does your master want to do?" Pansa asked in the face.

"The master loves Young Caesar very much, but he is afraid that he will make mistakes that young people will make, such as being too aggressive or being too arbitrary to authority." Alp replied.

"You mean, to complete the cause of the murderer of Caesar?"

Alp nodded and said he did not deny it. Pansa smiled and said, "I already know your master's ambitions. He has nailed and insiders around Caesar. His four legions are about to arrive in Rome, right?"

"So, the consul returned to Rome this time and happened to assist the master in completing this great situation. The master will never treat his friends unfairly, nor will he betray his friends."

"What if I express my honor as the Supreme Consul, I don't want it?" Pansa asked with a tentative smile.

"Then the result is the same." Alp never dragged his mouth.

Pansa thought for a while, then sighed and walked to the trivial window of the farm: There is nothing he can do. He is the same as Hejius. He was originally promoted by Caesar's breakthrough restrictions because of his outstanding administrative staff. He had long been thorns in the eyes of the Senate. The reason why the clans in the Temple of Concord have not yet thrown out their agents to squeeze him away was just to ease the situation and win people's hearts. Now that Hejius is dead, he just gives the Senate an excuse, because Rome generally does not allow it.

There is only one consul. Unless he is Sura, Pompeius or Caesar, he has the qualifications and ability to serve as a "single consul", but he is not. Now, once he sends Hejus' coffin back to Rome, the Senate will immediately elect a proxy to take over Hejus's position, and even the election procedures are not required. The Roman emergency procedural law stipulates that the high priest can be directly transferred to the consul in temporary emergencies, and the current chief priest is the guy who is anti-Caesar party in Merut.

So to put it bluntly, the Senate's wishful thinking was to push Meirut to the position of consul, fight with him, and then use the difficulties of the young Caesars being slight and lack of financial resources to force him to disband the legion, "To put it bluntly, Young Caesars is really a chess move this time." Then Panza continued to think that Young Caesars was finished this time, and Li Bida used this node to win over me, a key figure, and had to deal with the Senate and Young Caesars at the same time. He was the Dacian dragon who stayed behind the scenes, laughing to the last time, hiding between the sea fog and the reefs? It was so terrifying!

"However, it is more important for people like me who have no military foundation and are born in a humble family to protect themselves - Caesar has passed away, and the living should work harder, right? Fortunately, I still have value now, so Li Bida will try his best to win me over and not even lose this last opportunity. In other words, as long as I can avenge Caesar, no matter who it is, I will avenge myself. Let the Senate succeed or Caesar succeed, which will not do anything to me, and may even suffer a life-threatening disaster. People, sometimes even go with the flow and have to grasp the course?" Pansa sighed upwards, and said in his heart that dear Julius, I can only do this.

Then Pansa turned around and nodded to Alp.

Five days later, Pansa returned to Rome, which was obviously nearly three days slower than the theoretical journey. But it was very tacit that when he came to the foot of Paladin Mountain, Li Bida's four legions arrived at the Pasini and the city defense fortress on the outskirts of Rome.

Just as the whole city was in chaos, Pansar climbed the Paladin Mountains and secretly discussed with Cicero for half a day. Then Cicero walked out of his house excitedly and summoned all the veterans, saying, "Li Bida is willing to compromise with the Senate!"

"However, he hopes to obtain the position of high priest." Cicero then gave up this condition. Etius and Casca brought many elders almost at the same time to defend, "What a joke? He actually asked a naturalized citizen of a foreign country to take on the most sacred position and serve as the uncrowned king?"

"When it comes to this, Julius Caesar, who served as the high priest, was also a foreigner in Rome. He was conquered only after he was conquered. None of us could see the situation three hundred years later, and everything would be the first time." Barçatus and Ebro stood up to speak for Li Bida.

At this time, Pansa, who had a tacit understanding, also stood up and spoke, "After receiving the pardon, Li Bida sent the registration application document to me and Hejius. We were on the front line of Mutina City at that time, so we didn't have time to report to the Senate, but I brought the documents approved by me and Hejius this time." After that, Pansa handed over the review documents with two consul seals to everyone present for review.

"You bastard, you cheat. Hejius is dead now and there is no evidence." Etius cursed, but Panza ignored him at all, but handed the documents to the elder Cicero, the chairman on duty. Then Cicero nodded and announced to everyone, "Since Caesar's death, the chief priest has been transferred into the hands of Merut. Now that Hejius is dead, Merut can replace the second chief consul according to the emergency law, and the vacant high priest seat - I think it is possible to consider Li Bida, especially when his four legions are outside the city, not to mention that he is a descendant of King Numa, who is the ancestor who formulated all the sacrificial regulations and laws of the Romans."

After Cicero said this, some of the elders who had already been swinging or neutral in their attitudes suddenly softened, because after all, the fact that the flaws of Caesar's memorandum had appeared, and the "five-year system" he left behind was expected to break through faster. As for the position of the High Priest, Li Bida, he was occupied by Li Bida because of his extremely high honor. I believe he would not do any evil deeds that endanger the elites and nobles of the Republic and the country - not to mention, the high priest was theoretically not allowed to lead troops to war. Although Caesar was an exception before, the elders were still confident that they would control Li Bida in this position - he, a foreigner, would stop there!

Of course there is a secret agreement, Cicero did not say that Li Bida had secretly agreed to use his financial resources and connections to help him to the most glorious step, that is, to replace Si Pingzeel as the inspector, wearing a robe with double purple edges.
