Rome Must Fall Chapter 60: The baggage camp recruits new soldiers (continued 1)

Tinibazus did not answer, but said excitedly: "I've had enough of war and death, and I don't want to be a soldier anymore!"

The smile on Tolerugo's face suddenly turned into dissatisfaction: "You don't want to be a soldier?! You are neither a woman, nor an old man, nor a child. The reason why Volenus asked you to come here, It also means that you are not the special talent that Maximus needs, and that you are only suitable to be a soldier with us! Since you have joined us, you should obey our arrangements. If you don't obey, then we will have no choice but to Please leave, you have to think clearly!"

Tolerugo's threats calmed down Tinibazus. After thinking about it for a moment, he understood: In this land ruled by the Romans, it was impossible for him to escape without the protection of the rebels. And once he is captured by the Romans, he will definitely suffer the most severe punishment...

Thinking of this, he quickly took the small piece of wood and said softly: "I was confused just now, but now I have figured it out. I want to be a soldier and fight with the Romans in the future!"

"That's right!" Tolerugo turned from anger to joy and patted his shoulder and said: "Our team is developing very quickly. As long as you work hard, you will become a ten-capion or a centurion in the future. Question."

"Oh." Tinibazus responded, not happy because of Tolerugo's encouragement.

"By the way, are any of the people joining us today any of your comrades in the Pontic army?" Tolerugo looked at him expectantly.

"Yes, there must be dozens of them. We were escorted to Italy and sold to that farm together. Over the years... more than a dozen have died..." Tinibazus looked sad.

Tolerugo was silent for a moment and cursed: "Damn Romans!"

Tinebazus was about to go out when Horace stopped him, pointed to the tattered clothes on the ground, and reminded: "Put on your outer lining."

Tinibazus bent down to pick up his clothes. Suddenly he remembered something and couldn't help but say something more: "There are women among the people here. Do they also need to strip for inspection?"

"Of course they also need to be strip-checked, but don't worry, they are checked by specialized female nurses." Horace explained.

Tolerugo said seriously: "It seems that you are not very honest. Let me remind you that you cannot harass women here, otherwise you will suffer!"

Although he didn't quite understand, Tinibazus still nodded. As soon as he walked out, he saw a man also wearing armor passing by and getting into the military tent. Then there was a noise inside: " Pheasalus, it’s not time yet, why are you here?”

"Torilugo, you have gone too far. You only picked the strong ones into your team, and only the weak ones were given to me and Carminus!"

"How I choose is my freedom. Who told me to win by drawing lots! When the time comes, you can do the same thing as me."

……

Seeing that the slave in front of him was a little far away from him and was about to cross a wooden door, Tinibazus did not dare to wait long and hurriedly chased after him.

Stepping through the wooden door and arriving at the backyard, there were no more tents but houses. Their queue led to the largest house, which looked like a warehouse.

Tinibazus caught up with the person in front and asked: "Stupid Cow, where have you been assigned?"

The real name of the young man called "Stupid Cow" is Samoras. He is the cowherd of the farm and is responsible for plowing the fields. He is familiar with Tinibazus. At this moment, he scratched his head in embarrassment: "I ...I forgot...Oh, they gave me this." As he said that, he handed over the wood chips in his hand.

"I can't understand this thing. You can show it to the people here later."

"Oh." Samoras scratched his head again, and then said with some excitement: "Tinibazus, that man just said that I... said that I would be a good soldier, as long as you listen to him carefully, In the future, I can be a ten...ten leader and take care of many people!"

"That's called a ten-capion." Tinibazus looked at the other man's thick body, and then at his silly smile. He didn't have the heart to expose it, but encouraged: "Well, not bad, I will become a captain from now on. Captain ten should take more care of me."

"Don't worry, Tinibazus, I won't let others bully you in the future." Samoras said, patting his chest.

"Thank you very much." Tinibazus smiled jokingly.

"Hey, that big guy, come here quickly!" A shout came from the front.

"I'm calling you!" Tinibazus pushed Samoras.

Samoras quickly turned around and ran forward.

There is a wooden table in front of the warehouse door. An old man sits at the head. He has his eyes closed and seems to be taking a nap. Two teenagers sit next to him. There are also seven or eight boys and girls standing beside the wooden table... …

Tinibazus was stunned when he saw this posture: Have I arrived at the children's nest?

But then he was surprised to see some of these children writing, some carrying things, and some leading the way. The division of labor was very orderly, and Zamoras was quickly arranged.

"Next!" the first boy sitting behind the wooden table shouted loudly.

Tinibazus put away his contempt and replied politely, "Here we go!", and then according to what he had just observed from behind, he immediately handed over the wood piece in his hand.

The young man took the piece of wood and whispered: "The first team of the fifth team..."

The boy next to him immediately opened a page in the roster in front of him.

"What's your name?" the boy asked.

"Tinebazus."

"How to spell it?"

"I... can't read." Tinibazus used to take it for granted that he was illiterate, but now facing these boys and girls, he suddenly felt ashamed.

The boy next to him was not surprised by this. He thought about it and wrote a few words on the roster.

The young man said seriously: "According to the order of Chief Maximus, all soldiers who join our supply camp guard will receive two earthen jars——"

As soon as he finished speaking, the boy next to him carried two earthen pots and placed them on the wooden table.

"These two earthen jars will be used for porridge and soup in the future, so be sure to protect them! Once they are damaged, there will be no extra earthen jars in the warehouse for you to replace, and you will be in trouble then. ." The young man reminded seriously.

Tinibazus nodded to express his understanding.

"A linen coat...a linen sleeping sheet...a pair of straw sandals...a linen luggage..." Every time the boy named a piece of supplies, the boy next to him took one out from the warehouse behind him. , put on the table.

In the past two months, many slave women have joined the supply camp. Maximus gathered the ingenious women among them ~IndoMTL.com~ and formed a weaving team specifically responsible for cutting the plundered linen. They were sewn into coats, luggage, and sheets, and straw sandals were woven from withered grass. Due to the short time and small quantity, Maximus only used them on personnel in the supply camp, which was criticized by other brigades on this point.

"There is also a training shield and dagger." After the boy finished speaking, a simple wooden board and a wooden stick were quickly placed on the wooden table.

"This is a dagger and a shield?!" Tinibazus' eyes widened.

"When you become a qualified guard soldier, you will naturally be given real shields and daggers." The young man said confidently: "Besides, these two things are made by the uncles in the weapons warehouse. You have to take good care of it, we will recycle it when the time comes."

Tinibazus did not complain anymore. In fact, he never expected that he would get so many things when he just joined the rebel army. Even when he was forcibly recruited in Pontus, the officials of the Pontus army did not So thoughtful like here.

"Take inventory of your things, and then sign your name or put your fingerprint on it." After the boy finished speaking, the boy next to him pushed the roster in his hand.

Tinibazus looked at the handwriting on the roster, but he didn't recognize any of it. He could only follow the boy's instructions, dip his right thumb in black putty, and press it on the blank space.

"Nasuya." The young man turned around and shouted: "Take this soldier to the first team of the 500th."

"Okay, Brother Akago." A pretty girl with a slender figure responded, walked to the table, put the items on the table one by one into her bag, and slung it over her shoulder, leaving only the wooden shield. and a wooden stick, and then smiled and said to Tinibazus: "Please come with me."
