In Liu Bei's opinion, Rome's behavior was not a problem. After all, when he was resting in peace, the Han Dynasty did a lot of trouble. There were only so many countries in the world. Rome wanted money and the Han Dynasty wanted land. The two sides were perfect.

Besides, Rome didn't mean selling some military supplies to Kushan. Even if Rome sent people to Kushan, there was nothing to say about the Han Dynasty. After all, since ancient times, the empire has been in such a tune. What can you do to beat others? What kidding is that if you can fight, you will fight long ago. This is not that you can't fight, and the business you should do must be done.

"Isn't the current focus of Rome on the Atlantic Ocean?" Liu Bei remembered something very clearly and asked a few casually.

The Han Dynasty knew that Rome had spent a lot of money on the Atlantic Ocean. There was no way for the Romans to eat sugar, but the Mediterranean climate could not plant sugarcane from the Han Dynasty. The sugarcane from the Han Dynasty planted in the past and turned into reed poles, and the Romans' livers were broken.

This problem exists in Africa, so the Romans took the sea to find places where sugar cane can be grown. However, the environment in the Atlantic Ocean is relatively harsh, so it is not clear whether the Romans have gone to sea to South America recently.

I have to say here that because the earth is a ball, the North African region, which is located in Rome, is actually closer to Brazil than to the Caribbean Sea. This is also the reason why European navigators first went to South America in the early days. On the one hand, it was smooth sailing and on the other hand, it was close.

However, the Roman shipbuilding technology was almost half a dozen years ago, and the Han Dynasty's seaship technology came from seven hundred years ago, while Rome came from almost five hundred years ago.

At least Chen Xi was cheating in the Han Dynasty, and it quickly burst out its potential in terms of relatively easy-to-replica technology, but Rome was very troubled. The boats that could run in the Mediterranean did not mean they could run in the Atlantic Ocean, so the Romans needed new navigation technology and new warships.

The Han Dynasty didn't care about this, because the distance between the Han Dynasty and Rome was really painful, and the relationship between the two sides was harmonious, so the Han Dynasty also opened some basic ship manufacturing technology for Rome. However, compared with the leapfrog advance of the Han Dynasty, Rome finally copied the turbine and keel bones, and the rest decided to copy the Kushan.

After all, there is still some difference between the Han Dynasty and the Kushan technology. The Han Dynasty was obviously confused, and the Kushan details were very complete. If the Romans wanted to upgrade, they naturally found someone who could copy them. In addition, Masinde's proposal to Sellian, the Romans directly sent an observation team to the Kushan warship to learn and absorb the Kushan technology and knowledge.

Simply put, the Han Dynasty and the Kushan family fought to death and made a difficult move forward, while Rome picked up ready-made ones for free.

But there is nothing to say about this. The imperial war has always been like this. People and Rome are strong enough, so they are qualified to get a bargain. If they are too weak and dare to have such covetous ideas, they are afraid they will die suddenly on the spot.

"I'm probably still struggling in the Atlantic Ocean. I heard that I overturned the boat several times, but I don't know what the situation is, but I guess there is no big problem." Chen Xi thought about it and replied.

When the feudal empire was at its peak, its execution and national strength were not inferior to that of the garbage industrial country. Therefore, although the Atlantic Ocean was wide, if Rome insisted on going over and checking, to be honest, without the Kushan technology, Rome could find a way to go, so this is a matter of time.

"Speaking of this, after Kushan, will we adjust Rome's diplomacy?" Zhao Yun asked with a serious expression after eating the meat on his bones.

"No, the Han Dynasty will definitely go there by then. If we rely on the ban on the country, we will be able to transfusion at most, even the strongest Yuan family at present." Chen Xi waved his hand and said too lazy.

Yuan Tan’s performance is indeed very amazing, but it’s useless. Yuan Tan has too few chess pieces in his hands that can be the backbone, and there is indeed no shortage of combat power in the middle and lower levels, but the lack of upper levels has caused great problems with the overall combat power of Yuan.

If Yuan Tan currently had a series of luxurious civil and military officials and generals in the middle of Yuan Shao, even if he could not defeat Rome, with the will and beliefs that Yuan Tan showed now, Rome would basically be impossible for Rome to kill Yuan.

Unfortunately, this is impossible. The battle between Yuan and Liu happened at that point. If Chen Xi didn't kill a group of main forces of the Yuan family, it might take five or six years for the Battle of Destruction in the North to end. At that time, the entire elite area of ​​the north would be blown up, and by then they would be powerless to turn things around.

What's more, if the Battle of Dead in the North has been fought for five or six years, it will take more time to fight Cao Sun. At that time, he will not die so much, and it will be impossible to suppress the general trend of the world and let them leave according to Chen Xi's plan.

Chen Xi believed in one sentence: the best way to predict the future is to create the future by yourself.

After all, if you don’t create yourself, you will inevitably have accidents by relying solely on prediction. So even if Chen Xi was ready to fight for the Chaozong Yuezu early in the morning, he would be roughly clear about the direction of the future. However, after facing an uncertain direction, he decisively chose to create the future by himself.

After all, it is better to rely on the information to collect and judge. At least, what results will occur when the latter is doing, and how to make up for leaks, and you are mentally prepared.

"In this case, in the short term, there should be no major changes in our diplomacy with Rome. After all, the Yuan family and Rome are making trouble now, and there is no reaction from Rome." Zhao Yun shook his head and said, he always felt outrageous about the Roman system.

"It's not that Rome has no response, but for Rome, these losses are nothing." Chen Xi shook his head and said. In the Roman system, citizens are the backbone, non-citizens, barbarians, slaves, but only exist for citizens.

Six million citizens, barbarians and slaves are six or seven times that of citizens. On average, from the perspective of the country, for every citizen, it is equivalent to every citizen having six or seven employees.

In a semi-slave or a semi-feudal society, these people can be used to die. Take the present for example. There are six or seven ordinary people who follow your blind command, who can move bricks and fight bricks, and fight to death, and do not have to use them to die like feudal society. Everyone contributes half of your income every month, and you live a very good life.

This is also why citizens can raise their own weapons and equipment and fight horses. This is also the reason why all citizens under the Roman citizen system, even if they are taxed, they will only call the emperor a crazy person, but they strongly support the civic system because their taxes can be passed on to others.

This is also the reason why not only did the original citizens rebell, but also the barbarians and slaves rebelled after Karakala gave her orders.

Because the citizens that barbarians and slaves want are the kind of people who are just a citizen title on the surface, but in fact they exploit more than 85% of the entire country and provide perfect benefits for less than one-tenth of the rest.

This is also why the Roman emperor found that his ruling class was shaky after he had references, because this method was too unstable. Of course, if the ascension channel was clear, just like Severu, in this method, both the barbarians and slaves were also very motivated.

Who doesn't want to live such a life? But the problem is that the citizens that Rome can support are limited, unless the citizenship of some people is eliminated and the system can be moved.

If you move, it means moving the civic system. If you move the civic system, it will be basically done. This is Rome's fatal point. At present, Rome is playing the elite among the barbarians in Eastern Europe, and freeing up some citizens' positions.

Yes, the position of citizens is also escalating. Although there are not many, it is true.

This is also the reason why the battle between Eastern Europe cannot end, because Rome has already recognized a fact that as long as their system starts to fight, it can continue.

"Actually, I wanted to ask a question before." Gan Ning didn't care much after listening to Chen Xi's narration. His mind was actually mainly focused on Kushan.

"What's the problem?" Chen Xi grabbed a piece of meat and then turned his head and asked.

"There are so many barbarians in the Kushan area. Will they really return to Rome in the future?" Gan Ning has a good vision, has enough strategic thinking and adventure. He also has a sudden idea and can draw many strange conclusions when he thinks about it. But in essence, this guy is still a husky, although he belongs to the king of Hakka!

"What are you worried about?" Zhang Fei looked at Gan Ning in confusion and asked.

"What should I do if Kushan's mother moves the capital?" Gan Ning looked at Zhang Fei and asked.

"Didn't they just moved the capital?" Zhang Fei hadn't reacted yet.

"You wouldn't say that Kushan moved directly to Africa, right?" Chen Xi pressed his temple and asked. He had never considered this kind of problem. This question was ridiculous, but if you think about Kushan's maritime transportation capabilities carefully, you can build cities in the territory of Indonesia and Malay in later generations, and you can also run to Rome.

"Why is it impossible?" Gan Ning looked at Chen Xi and asked, "When I approached Australia and chased Meng Kangbu, I was thinking about a question. Have those Kushans been to Africa? They are now in the beginning of the **** state, the weakest, but if they run away on a boat..."

Chen Xi pressed his temples, it was really troublesome. If you think about it this way, the Wu family could run to Africa, and maybe there would be Zhu Helai and other guys to let go. If you think about it this way, the strategy of the wise men of Kushan seems to be really good.

With the capacity of Kushan, okay, don’t let Kushan go. With the capacity of India, it is not too difficult to transport millions of people to Africa. Although the Han Dynasty is very successful in fighting Kushan now, if Kushan runs to the central African continent and comes out for twenty years, it will be really deadly.
