I am the son of Cao thief, start the awakening of the tyrant system

Seeing that Dianian was a little moved, Cao Mao smiled lightly and continued,
"Now that you've been defeated and captured, it's too late to fight for power in Rome. Presumably no one is willing to pay a huge ransom to exchange you back?"

"Instead of this, why don't you take the initiative to surrender to me?"

Dianian was silent for a long time, then smiled wryly,

"Emperor Longguo, I admit that the conditions you offered are very attractive, and I am indeed tempted."

"His Majesty……"

Yasis on the side was a little unwilling.

Cao Mao raised his hand, motioned him not to speak, and said with a light smile,

"Then you are willing to surrender?"

"surrender?"

Dianian shook his head, raised his head firmly,

"As a nobleman of the Roman Empire, how can I surrender to you eastern barbarians?"

"I was defeated and captured. I have nothing to say, I just want to die quickly!"

If Dianian chooses to surrender to Cao Mao in order to survive and ascend to the throne.

Although Zhao Yun and the others did not look down on him, they somewhat despised him in their hearts.

But when Dianian said that he only wanted to die quickly, everyone looked at him with admiration!

The world adores a man of integrity, and Dyanian is undoubtedly such a man.

Cao Mao was also a little surprised.

He didn't expect that in the decadent Roman Empire, there would be Romans who valued honor more than their own lives!
"It's a pity, it's a pity!"

He shook his head slightly and nodded at Dianwei.

Dian Wei walked forward knowingly, and drew out the long blade at his waist.

Dianian took a deep breath, slowly closed his eyes, and died generously!
"Shh!"

Dianian's head flew high and landed heavily on the ground.

"This person is also considered a loyal person, so bury him alive."

Cao Mao looked at Diani'an's corpse regretfully, and ordered.

"Here!"

Dian Wei beckoned a few soldiers to carry Dyanian's body down.

Seeing the execution of the Roman commander-in-chief, Assis was full of joy, and then asked,
"Your Majesty, what about the rest of the Roman soldiers?"

It is embarrassing how to deal with the tens of thousands of Romans who were captured.

"What do you mean?"

Cao Mao looked towards Yasis.

"In my opinion, how about killing most of the captives and sending the rest to Taixifeng as slaves?"

Assis looked cold and authentic,
"I plan to build a royal tomb for my father, but there is a shortage of slaves."

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you to deal with."

Cao Mao waved his hand.

Seeing Assis's excited face, everyone knew in their hearts that what awaited those Romans would be a miserable end.

This is no wonder others.

Previously, the Romans burned, killed and looted in the territory of Anxi, and even dug up the tombs of the ancestors of Assis.

This is nothing more than revenge with revenge, revenge with hatred!
"Clean the battlefield, take a short rest, and let's continue on the road."

Cao Mao shouted in a deep voice.

"Here!"

Everyone took orders together.

……

Calle.

In the barracks of the Roman army.

At this moment, all Roman soldiers were gathered around a high platform.

I saw a middle-aged black man with dark skin slowly walking up to the high platform!
He looked around at the group of Roman soldiers in the audience, and said loudly,
"Great Roman warriors, the assassins of our emperor have been captured."

"He is Martiaris!"

He paused, then continued,

"Bring the prisoner up!"

A Roman who was tied up was taken to a high platform by several soldiers.

After seeing the black man on the stage, the man's eyes widened immediately. He wanted to say something, but his mouth was stuffed with a cloth ball, so he couldn't speak at all, he could only make a whimpering sound.

"Martiaris was His Majesty's guard, but because he was not promoted to be a centurion, he felt resentful and assassinated His Majesty!"

"So, as the new emperor, I decided to sentence this person to hang!"

As soon as the words fell, the soldiers on the side put Martialis on the gallows.

In front of tens of thousands of Romans, Martialis was hanged alive!
Seeing that the murderer who killed Emperor Caracalla was brought to justice, all the Roman soldiers immediately cheered.

At this moment, I don't know who yelled first,
"I have seen His Majesty the Emperor!"

The rest of the soldiers followed suit, saluted the middle-aged black man, and said in unison,

"I have seen His Majesty the Emperor!"

Yes, this black man is the new emperor Macrinus!

Macrinus' father was a black soldier in the North African province of the Roman Empire.

After he was born, he also inherited his father's identity and became a miserable slave.

But Macrinus was tall and strong, with amazing strength, so he was chosen by the slave owner as a gladiator.

In the cruel arena, he was invincible, won a hundred victories in a row, and finally gained freedom.

After becoming a civilian from a slave, Makrinus joined the army, starting from a small soldier, and gradually grew into a consul of the emperor's guard!

After Caracalla's death, he became the first black slave emperor of the Roman Empire!
Looking at the Romans who worshiped him under the stage, Makrinus couldn't help showing a smug smile.

Martialis, the guard who had just been executed, was Macrinus's subordinate.

And he was instigated by Macrinus to assassinate the former emperor Caracalla.

It's just that Martiaris never dreamed that after taking the throne, Macrinus would cross the river and tear down the bridge!

After the execution of the murderer in public, Macrinus returned to his camp, and several of his cronies came forward to meet him.

"Is there any movement from the commanders of the other armies?"

Macrinus asked in a deep voice.

"no!"

"They also wrote to your Majesty, saying that they support your ascension to the throne."

Hearing this, Macrinus showed a satisfied smile.

Due to the rapid expansion of the territory of the Roman Empire and the increasing number of enemies it faced, most of the original Roman legions were reduced to ordinary border guards and lost their strategic maneuverability.

Therefore, in recent years, the Roman emperors have begun to dismiss the army.

In addition to the original Roman legion, a mobile field army directly under the emperor was established.

This army is highly mobile and has amazing combat effectiveness.

Because Caracalla trusted Macrinus too much, he became self-respecting and became ambitious!

Macrinus felt that he was in control of the most elite army in the empire, and Caracalla had no heirs. As long as he was assassinated, he could become the emperor of the empire with his mobile field army!
So there is today's scene!
"But Your Majesty, do you still remember Dianian?"

asked an aide.

"Dianian?"

Macrinus nodded,
"Didn't he gather troops to cross the Tigris River and establish a front-line stronghold under the order of Caracalla?"
