Ancient Rome: From Slaveholder to Supreme Emperor

Chapter two hundred and eighty sixth calm to restless

The fire burned very vigorously. As the strong wind swept, countless ashes floated with the wind and landed in every corner of the city. The people saw it, and when they saw the soot in the shape of wheat leaves, they instantly guessed that the wheat field was covered with dust It burned, so they rushed towards the city gate, intending to put out the fire.

The wheat is about to ripen, and if it is burned at this time, they will really want to cry without tears.

However, when they hadn’t arrived at the city gate, they were waiting for them in a neat array of soldiers, fully armed, shields, and daggers all lit up.

“There is a heavy military shield in front, whoever dares to take a step forward will be killed!!

Nickel said coldly.

“Nichol, how can you do this? We heard that the wheat field was burned, and we are rushing to put out the fire now, you get out of the way, or it will be too late

Someone recognized Nickel, cursed at him, and planned to force his way through. He was Nickel’s neighbor and felt that Nickel would not kill him.

“Everyone is ready!! Kill without mercy!!!

However, Nikkor didn’t seem to recognize him, his expression was extremely cold, and he ordered the soldiers around him, raising the dagger directly.

“Damn, how can you do this…

Everyone was immediately frightened, and then yelled.

“Once again, anyone who dares to approach the military area will be killed without mercy! This is the order given by the city lord himself, let alone you. Even if my family does not obey the military order, I will personally control him!!”

Nickel said coldly.

“But… our wheat fields were burned…

Some women were about to cry.

“This is set on fire by the enemy! The city lord said, how much is burned and how much he pays, you all go away! Otherwise, we will execute the order and kill you all!!”

A soldier beside Nikkor saw more and more people gather and said in a deep voice.

“is this real?”

“Really?”

When many people heard that Ye Tian had met with them, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief and asked eagerly.

“Really, don’t question the greatness of Lord City Lord. He is the patron saint sent by the gods to protect us in Ethiopia! Don’t leave! If you disturb Lord City Lord’s military operations, you are sinners and deserve to be killed!”

Nickel said coldly.

“Very good!”

“That’s really good!”

“The Lord of the City is really benevolent and kind,

“Of course, didn’t you hear that Lord City Lord is the patron saint sent by the gods to the mortal world…

After getting an affirmative answer, the people cheered and dispersed, and told the good news to the people who came in a steady stream behind.

“Master, the common people have done it, the nobles have done it too, they are all quiet!”

Sabak came to Ye Tian’s side and said respectfully.

He was very curious, how Ye Tian expected the commoners and nobles to know about the burning of the wheat fields so quickly, and made all the arrangements.

“What’s so strange? Didn’t you see so many burned wheat leaves flying into the city? These are leaves that are closely related to their lives, how could they not see it..

Seeing the doubts flashing in Sabak’s eyes, Ye Tian couldn’t help but smile, grabbed a piece of wheat leaf that had been burned to ashes, showed it to him, and then explained.

“Teached, great master!”

Sabak returned respectfully, and the worship in his eyes became even more fanatical. He found that his master seemed to understand everything and everything, just like the god who mastered the truth.

The fire burned so vigorously that when night fell, half the sky was red.

The city was calm, but the army of allies preparing for the battle became a little anxious.

Today, they burned the wheat fields and burned the crops that the Ethiopians depended on for survival, but it is a bottomless thing.

Not to mention what the gods in the sky think of them.

The cruel words Ye Tian said in the city today unknowingly rang in their ears.

They seem to have made terrible mistakes.

The enemy really didn’t get out of town to fight them.

This made them panic, because the Romans did not go out of the city to fight with them, and they had no way to defeat the Romans. Once the Romans defeated them and went south madly, their hometown would suffer, and theirs would suffer. family, their closest relatives.

When they thought about the extinction of the whole family, they shuddered in their hearts.

Ye Tian’s voice at the beginning was too icy, like the voice of a demon, but now, when he thinks about it, his body is cold.

“Damn Satan, are you really so ruthless and gloomy? The wheat fields are all burned, and you don’t even go out of town to fight?”

“Damn, why did you watch your wheat fields burn, the soldiers didn’t riot, why didn’t the common people and nobles riot? I don’t believe it, I don’t believe that the whole Ethiopia is under your complete control! It’s impossible, No one has that much skill

The city was quiet, and the more Vitius and Ciro collapsed, a trace of unease arose in their hearts.

The enemy is too terrifying, this forbearance, this state of mind, is too terrifying.

The most terrifying thing is that Satan seems to have taken control of the entire Ethiopia, and no one riots.

Under the shadow of the fire, the soldiers on the city were motionless and watched silently. The calmness was really terrifying.

They found that their calculations were all wrong, and things didn’t go as they expected.

The fire finally disappeared.

Ye Tian was holding his ground after all.

“They didn’t burn all the grain fields after all! Ahhh..

Witnessing the burning and extinguishing of the fire, Ye Tian smiled and said without listening to any emotion.

“Tonight, it’s probably their sleepless night!”

Seeing that the fire was extinguished, Bardock breathed a sigh of relief and said calmly.

“Yeah, made such a big mistake, they were able to sleep so well, Ciro and Vitius made a mistake, and this fire burned their morale! After all, they didn’t have the courage to break the boat!”

Ye Tian smiled and said, if it was him, once it was burned, it would be completely burned, breaking the boat and letting the restless soldiers have no way to retreat, and directly attacked the city.

“burn one’s boats?”

Bardock asked curiously.

“It was the cruelest war ever!”

Ye Tian didn’t explain too much, he didn’t want to use this kind of war, he still likes to win every war easily and happily.

Tonight, “Let them be completely uneasy, the bird of the bow is the least likely to be frightened. This move of Ciro and Vitius will undoubtedly speed up their demise! Tomorrow night, I will break the enemy and cut Ciro. And the head of Vitius!

Ye Tian smiled confidently.
