Under such circumstances, these young people were sent to Seleu by Ying Gao, and they all took the mission. Their mission was to see if the forces around Seleu were honest and if they had collusion with the Romans.

In the end, Ying Gao decided not to attack those forces for the time being because he did not want to spend all his troops on these forces. He believed that when his Daqin was really strong enough, these forces would definitely kneel down and beg him to surrender.

And in such a discussion, Ying Gao had already made it clear that the Romans were the enemy of the Qin Dynasty, and there was no need to say anything. If they met the Romans, they would be just one word, do it!

Needless to say, the allies of the Qin Dynasty were Xiang Yu. Ying Gao specifically instructed these young people that Xiang Yu and the Xiongnu under his leadership were allies and friends of the Qin Dynasty. If someone provoked Xiang Yu and the Xiongnu without any reason and destroyed the relationship between the Qin Dynasty and the Xiongnu, he would really be severely punished by Ying Gao.

As for Philip V who cooperated well with the Qin Dynasty in the battle against the Romans, Ying Gao did not make a clear statement. According to Ying Gao's idea, if the Romans were not involved, the Qin Dynasty and Philip V still had no intersection. When the Romans were involved, he could discuss with Philip V again. After all, there are no eternal friends in this world, but only eternal interests.

These young men eventually took the teachings of the Emperor of Qin to them personally. Some were alone, and some took their families to Seliu, which was very far away from the Qin Dynasty. They knew that although Seliu was a little far from Xianyang City, when they arrived at Seliu, they could directly become an official with similar functions as a county magistrate, and the cities they managed were much more than those of the county magistrate of the Qin Dynasty.

Not only that, because of the lack of officials in the Seleu and the Mauryan Dynasty, there was only one top leader in each city, and the military and political forces were captured. Although there might be only one thousand two thousand Qin troops in the city, and most of them were used to maintain order, such experiences were precious to the young people who had just been discovered by Ying Gao from the imperial examination. They were not stupid. They all knew that if they could achieve results in such a position, Ying Gao would definitely have more important things to entrust themselves to do next.

When these young people set out with hope and dreams, two identities knelt in front of the Roman consuls, and the scene seemed a little awkward.

Aren't these two people the generals who were sent to the territory of the Great Qin by the Roman consuls to attack the Great Qin? Now that the two have suffered a defeat, they already know what the ending will be like waiting for them.

In fact, these two people are also unlucky enough. It was a very bad thing to fail in the battle to conquer the Qin Dynasty, but because the elite army did not lose too much, they still had a lot of hope in their hearts.

But something that happened on their way back made them more passive, and the initiator of this incident was the enemy of Rome, Philip V.

It turned out that when Philip V joined forces with Ying Gao to decide to deal with the Romans, he had already decided on his follow-up plan. Philip V knew that this was just the battle to repel the Romans. As long as the Romans retreated, the current situation of the Qin Dynasty would definitely not chase him. Moreover, when Philip V saw the letters written to him by Ying Gao, he knew that Ying Gao, the monarch, must be a very smart monarch. He wanted to fool the cavalry of the Qin Dynasty to follow him to chase the Romans desperately, but Ying Gao would definitely not agree.

Therefore, in the battle with the Qin Dynasty, Philip V sent out not the most elite team under his command, but the second-rate team, and the number was not as large as Ying Gao suggested in the letter. Of course, Han Xin and Meng Tian would definitely not notice these details that night.

After the Romans were killed, the team sent by Philip V did not return to Macedonia, but chased the Roman team not far or near.

Of course, the Romans didn't know that the team was from Philip V. They thought it was from the Qin Dynasty and were still chasing. Fortunately, the pursuit was not fast, so the Romans were just running forward, hoping to get rid of them when they escaped to a certain distance.

However, while chasing the Romans, the fast horses sent by Philip V's men reported to the Macedonian elite soldiers who had already ambushed on the possible route. The Roman escape route was no longer a secret in the hearts of the elite soldiers and generals under Philip V's command.

So when the Romans were exhausted from running away, they suffered severe damage. Philip V's elite soldiers rushed in without any defense.

At this time, the Romans had never thought about this, and the other was that the men sent by Philip V this time were really elite, and they were no worse than the troops they encountered before when they were in Seleu.

After this raid, the Romans knew what pain was. The two battles not only caused most of the troops sent by the forces who accompanied them to fight, but also caused half of the troops and horses of the Romans to lose as much as half. This time, the expedition was vigorous and proud, and finally ended with a disastrous defeat that was rare in the history of the Romans.

Such a crushing defeat caused the Romans not only to lose their elite soldiers, but also to disappoint those forces that depend on them.

This time the losses combined with the previous losses of 100,000 people, the Romans alone brought about 200,000 losses to their allies. Of course, they did not want this to happen again, because their allies would not say anything once or twice, but if it was suitable for three or four times, they would not be silent again. They would let the Romans know their dissatisfaction, and even some forces that were far away from the territory controlled by Rome would take the opportunity to escape from the control of the Romans. The worst kind is to turn against Philip V.

And such a big deal doesn't have to fall on these two generals who led the troops. They are now kneeling in front of the consul of Rome, and they can obviously know their ending.

"Why can't you win a decent victory with me, Rome, with so many elite soldiers? Although the results of our first Macedonian War were not good, we never allowed the Macedonians to take advantage of it. Why did you get beaten by Philip V when you are beaten? I want to protect you two, but in our Roman Senate, how much weight I can have depends on what reason I can give!"

The consul was quite a bit disgusted with these two generals he had chosen personally. At the beginning, he had given him a great hope, but what these two people brought him was a result he had never thought of. Because of the Roman system, although he was a consul, there was actually a Roman Senate above him. Although the Senate almost never cared about ordinary things, after such a big defeat, it was obviously no longer an ordinary thing.

"Sir, the cavalry of the Qin Dynasty are really fierce, and they don't know why they formed an alliance with Philip V. There is also a cavalry of 100,000 people. I don't know where they came here, but they are also very good at fighting. When we attacked Seleu's city for five days, it was a little tired. Their three men suddenly came to attack. Although we had already tried our best to resist, if we did not withdraw, these men would probably not be able to save them. Although we also wanted to fight hard, once we died in battle, no one could bring back the news about what happened to Seleu. When we returned, we had already put life and death aside. No matter what the Senate's attitude was, we would not have any concerns."

"When you returned, you were attacked by Philip V?"

"Yes, but after our analysis, the attacks on us by Philip V should be unaware of the Great Qin people, because the people who attacked us later were all Macedonian cavalry and there was no sign of the Great Qin cavalry. However, at that time we were exhausted physically and mentally, so we did not form effective resistance. The losses caused by Philip V's sneak attack were much greater than the losses we had in Seleu. It can be seen that the Great Qin may only be the purpose of defense for us, but Philip V was taking advantage of the opportunity to cooperate with the Great Qin to greatly reduce our strength. If this situation continues, we will most likely have a great war with Philip V in the near future, so you should prepare early!"

The consul knew at the moment that although the two generals were defeated in the war, what they said now was their heartfelt words. If they had not said what they wanted to say, they might have stopped running away halfway and fought with Philip V's people until they were out of ammunition and food. But they knew that if they really did that, they would have fallen into Philip V's thoughts.

"You don't have to worry about this matter. When I arrive at the Senate, I will personally inform the elders of your situation, but what will happen in the end? I can't guarantee that Rome has won so many battles that I don't know if these people can still withstand the defeat."

The consul sighed and waved his hand gently, allowing the two generals to take the lead and withdraw.

In fact, this matter has failed to this extent. He, the person who now holds the authority of Rome, still has a great responsibility. Although he had known about the rapid development of the Qin Dynasty early on, he did not pay much attention to the Qin Dynasty. Moreover, until the troops were sent, he took it for granted that Seleu could definitely be taken down by them, and also thought that they would definitely be able to make Philip V feel very uncomfortable by taking down Seleu.

But he didn't think about whether Philip V would know about his actions, nor did he think that his actions would not be hidden from others at all. Not only did he know all his plans, he also defeated them completely by joining forces with Philip V.

From this point of view, the Roman consul knew that the Qin Dynasty was definitely not a force that could be underestimated. Now that he was so ill-fated, he not only became a complete enemy with the Qin Dynasty, but also pushed the Qin Dynasty to the side of Philip V.

This is definitely a very unfavorable thing for the long-term development of Rome.

In this case, the consul himself didn't know whether the old guys in the Senate would embarrass him. It would undoubtedly be even more difficult to protect his confidants under such circumstances.

However, the reason why he was able to become the consul of the Romans and his generals was convinced by the Senate and his generals before encountering the Qin Dynasty. So this time, he still wanted to fight for his two confidant generals.

In fact, at this moment, the consul still regarded his biggest enemy as Philip V. He even believed that this time it was simply because Philip V and the Qin Dynasty united, so he had this defeat. As long as Philip V was taken down first, the Qin Dynasty was not worth worrying. As for the cavalry of the Qin Dynasty that the generals under him told him before, and the cavalry team that the Qin Dynasty found from unknown where the Qin Dynasty had all had very strong combat power, he had completely forgotten it.

He was still sending people to stare at Seliu, because Daqin had completely occupied Seliu. If Daqin wanted to take any action, he would definitely start from Seliu's place.

At this time, Seliu had returned to peace. Meng Tian, ​​in accordance with Ying Gao's request, built a large camp near the border between Seliu, the Mauryan Dynasty and the Huns. There were 100,000 troops stationed in this camp, which could fully radiate to Seliu and the surrounding forces, and could also know the movements of the Huns at all times. Although one-third of Seliu's territory had been given to the Huns, there were more and more forces involved. Ying Gao must know the movements of the Huns.

Moreover, a few months later, more than a dozen young people from Xianyang City arrived in Seliu, which greatly alleviated the shortage of Qin officials in Seliu. Ying Gao used the same strategy in the Mauryan Dynasty and Seliu, not that he did not give locals a chance, but the top leader and army must be from the Qin people!
