Chapter 6535 Cold
After hearing this, Huangfu Song looked helpless. It is absolutely impossible for him to be a big boss of the fence faction to understand politics. It is precisely because he understands that he feels it is difficult to persuade him.
When people are at their survival, they are still willing to talk to the Han Dynasty. It is already due to the hard power of the Han Dynasty, but Huangfu Song can roughly understand what will happen if the negotiations cannot be reached.
With a sharp weapon, a murderous intention arises, and strength is here, how dare you let the other party die here? A rabbit is anxious and biting people, not to mention that such a big empire is not good to turn over a table, but when a person dies, he still cares about turning over the table?
"There are thousands of people who want to become the Duke of Rome, even if they are in the Roman Empire, they are the top ones. Is there anything else that Yuan is dissatisfied with?" Severu said with some dissatisfaction. In his opinion, this is Rome's greatest sincerity.
Even if you really want to say something, you are willing to give such sincerity is not because of the strength of the Yuan family, but because the Han family behind the Yuan family needs such respect from Rome. If you really have to consider the Yuan family and the Duke of Rome, you can just put the knife on Yuan's neck.
Huangfu Song had nothing to say. If there was no such wave in China, the Yuan family took the initiative to build a country in Sizhao City, east of the Ural Mountains. Then Rome is indeed not a humiliation. At most, it only made the Yuan family feel that they couldn't understand what the Romans were thinking, but they wouldn't think it was a shame.
But what the Yuan family really wants to say was actually let go by Liu Bei and Chen Xi. The so-called Duke Zhong Guo himself was the canonization given by his former mortal enemy. For Yuan Tan, it was almost like my father and Liu Xuande competing for the battle. After my father died, I accepted Liu Xuande's canonization. After coming to Eastern Europe, I fought with Rome. Although I couldn't beat him, the emperor was far away. There was no good way for Rome to fight me if he didn't fight for his life. As a result, now?
Co-author, our Yuan family will be conferred a life for the rest of our lives.
"Emperor Huangfu, what are you hesitating about?" Perennis looked at Huangfu Song's gloomy face and frowned. Perennis admitted that the Roman Empire was indeed a slap in the face for the enthronement of the Yuan family for the major forces, but the compensation they gave was not fake.
"I'm worried that the Yuan family will not accept this." Huangfu Song breathed a sigh of relief and told the truth. When things came to this point, they had to say everything they should say, and it was meaningless to conceal it.
"Can the Yuan family not accept it?" Severu looked at Huangfu Song calmly, "Whether Emperor Huangfu thinks the Han Dynasty can accept it."
"Chen Zichuan puts the overall situation first and will not stop this enthronement." Huangfu Song said calmly, "After all, when things have come to this point, the attitude of the Han Dynasty has shown it very clearly before going to the Senate."
The current attitude of the Han Dynasty is that as long as Rome is not crazy, I will not pursue what you want to do. After this period of time, we will discuss the follow-up. Let's let everyone live first.
"That's fine." Severus looked at Perennis, Perennis nodded. Huangfu Song looked at the expressions of the two people opposite him and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"We respect the Han Empire, not the Yuan family." Perennis said.
Huangfu Song had nothing to say, he knew it was like this, so he didn't want to talk. There was no way to communicate in this situation. Rome was not talking to the Yuan family at all. Although it was enthroned by the Yuan family, Rome was actually the Han Empire.
Just like the Eastern European battle between Rome and the Yuan family, the Roman Empire was not facing the Yuan family, but the Han family. The reason why they wanted to restrain their strength was just the Han family hidden behind the Yuan family.
"Be more decent, be as decent as possible." Huangfu Song had no choice but to do his best to comfort him. The Han Dynasty did not directly dismiss it, so what would the Yuan family rely on to block it?
"Then wait for the Senate to reply and we will start to enthronement." Seville showed his domineeringness at one point. Other things can be discussed. When life and death are there, who will talk to you? Although the Yuan family appeared in Rome's eyes, they did not step on the negotiating table from beginning to end.
In essence, both parties are not equal.
It was not yet dusk, and the Roman Senate had already been hooked up with the Han Dynasty. In fact, it was more of the Han Dynasty wasted some time for meetings. The Senate basically received the news, then released the news, and even planned the location of the Senate's elders who were left for the Yuan family.
It can be said that this is the time when the Roman Empire has the strongest execution ability in recent decades. When I was resting, I would not have lived for so long.
"Duke Zhongguo." Huangfu Song went to see Yuan Tan first before Severu was enthroned, which was somewhat of a psychological preparation for Yuan Tan.
"General Huangfu." Yuan Tan saw Huangfu Song coming to see him, and directly got up from the position of the master and saluted Huangfu Song first. After all, he met Perennis in Northern Europe. The complete body of Huangfu Song and others can be regarded as having a correct understanding of the boss, so respect must be respected.
"This is Cyprian, Sima Zhongda?" Huangfu Song said casually as he looked at the two young men in Yuan Tan's tent.
"Yes, they came here to learn military tactics, but they didn't expect that the general and the referee Perennis would have severely damaged the divine guards under Odin's command so quickly." Yuan Tan said with some admiration.
"You guys go out first." Huangfu Song waved to Cyprian and Sima Yi. He was afraid that Yuan Tan would collapse afterwards. "I have something to talk about with Duke Zhong and I."
Cyprian and Sima Yi left indifferently after hearing this. They came for a while and had not seen Huangfu Song. After all, the military commander sometimes even if they wanted to see him.
"What happened?" After Cyprian and the others left, Yuan Tan asked with some confusion, with some bad premonition in his heart.
"A locust plague occurred in East Africa." Huangfu Song simply described the general situation, but did not mention Rome's response, but only talked about the losses in Rome, Central Asia, Kushan and other places.
Yuan Tan was stunned when he heard this. It was the first time he had seen such a locust plague. If it were something others said, Yuan Tan would question it a few more times, but this thing was jointly released by the Gan family and the Shi family, so Yuan Tan shut up. There was no need to use his life to challenge other people's professionalism.
"This locust plague is too outrageous." Yuan Tan said with a little emotion, and then he was convinced again that his location was indeed a place of dragon prosperity. There was no locust plague at all. As long as the management was strengthened, the locust plague could not develop at all. However, Rome was hammered by locusts, which was really happy.
"How should we deal with the locust plague in Central Asia? No matter how many billions of locust plagues can they eat up there, considering the treacherous bandits that have always existed in the local area, the situation this year will probably be very chaotic. When there is no food to eat, it will really be a waste of life." Yuan Tan stood at a higher level, analyzing the overall situation in Central Asia, and felt that the situation this year might be very chaotic.
"The situation is very bad. In the past few years, the general situation has stabilized. The large-scale thieves have been basically wiped out. Even if the local people have not been incorporated, they have at least found their own ecological niche. They are no longer as chaotic as when the Sudian Empire collapsed earlier. But this year's situation..." Huangfu Song sighed. Their Huangfu family also has a place in Central Asia, so Huangfu Song is actually very clear about many things.
"That's it." Yuan Tan nodded after hearing this. He could understand that the people and bandits who were not incorporated by the Han Dynasty now looked like nearly ten million. When there was no locust plague before, these people and bandits who were free from rule could survive. However, this year's super locust plague destined that these people and bandits who were free from rule would be enraged.
When people are about to starve to death, don’t talk about morality and bottom line issues. In this situation in Central Asia this year, the first half is locusts, and the second half is probably the script of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, which is even more desperate than the script of the Yellow Turban Rebellion. At least during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the major families can still take out some food, but this time, the major families themselves may not be able to hold on.
"This year will not be a good time. Even if the Han Dynasty is willing to transport a batch of food and grass from New South Wales, it will probably be difficult for Central Asia, especially in the second half of the year, which may be the largest counterattack in the history of Central Asian bandits." Huangfu Song said with a sigh.
Moreover, this counterattack is completely different from the previous one. If you can't win before, you can change the place. If you can't win this time, you will have to die.
It is even the same for the Han family in Central Asia, where both sides are fighting on the bottom line of life and death.
"I'm afraid there will be some aristocratic families this time." Yuan Tan sighed and said, "Although the fence of the country is very good, this danger is not a joke."
"Yes, everything is healthy in China, but life in China is not suitable for these aristocratic families." Huangfu Song also said with some distractions. There is indeed a possibility of being beaten to death when he went out to establish a country, but who would like to be a grandson if he could be a local emperor? Especially the Han Dynasty is now authoritative, and even in Central Asia, you can feel that kind of pressure. If you are in China, you must not be a human being with your tail between your tail?
"This time, it's a test of major families. If you can't even survive the counterattack of local thieves, it can only be said that you are not strong enough." When Yuan Tan said this, he obviously had the intention of sitting in the mountains and watching the tiger fight. Anyway, the Yuan family does not lack food and will not be beaten. The past two years are still alright.
"Yes, even if millions of thieves can be created to attack the base camp of the Central Asian family, as long as they have built their own fortress in the past few years, there should be no problem." Huangfu Song glanced at Yuan Tan when he heard this, and was a little dissatisfied with Yuan Tan's attitude of not being concerned about his affairs. After all, the fief controlled by his Huangfu family was also being beaten.
Even though the Huangfu family's fiefdom was established in accordance with Huangfu Song's high requirements, a large number of permanent defense facilities were established, and a super-large Wubao was established in the core of the fiefdom that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and a fortress was built based on the geographical advantage, when the locals were struggling to death due to food problems, the Huangfu family could not die. No matter how good the defensive facilities were, facing hundreds of thousands or millions of crazy hungry people, they could not defend them without death alone.
"Duke Zhongguo, you should have already understood the overall world situation. You should know what I want to say next." Huangfu Song looked at Yuan Tan and hinted.
"Northern Europe won't fight? Will we withdraw?" Yuan Tan said naturally. In this situation, Rome is about to starve to death. How could it be possible to maintain such an expeditionary force?
"This is only one aspect. The Roman Empire could not collect all the food and grass for the next time. What did Duke Zhong think about Rome next?" Huangfu Song guided Yuan Tan to think as much as possible. After all, Yuan Tan could never understand what he said directly because of the tone in his heart, but if Yuan Tan thought of it himself, there would be no need for Huangfu Song to say a lot of things.
"Is the Roman Empire going to have civil strife?" Yuan Tan said excitedly, "Damn it, yes, hundreds of billions of locusts in East Africa have eaten up all the main grain-producing land of Rome. Tens of millions of people will not die. Considering the current social system of Rome and the huge difference between citizens and barbarians, the Roman Empire must protect citizens, and in this way, the world will not rebel!"
Yuan Tan said that his eyes became brighter and he could not even control his claws of writing letters to major European barbarian leaders. This is really a good opportunity. Rome is about to explode. Our Yuan family must not pick up a ready-made one. My father's spirit in heaven will bless you!
"You're fine, the Roman Empire also realized it. Think about it, the Roman Empire realized what might happen." Huangfu Song looked at Yuan Tan's excited look when he picked up a big advantage, and sighed and said, Yuan Tan was indeed right. If there was no food, Rome would indeed be like this, but the Roman Empire was not a fool, so how could it be possible to make things develop to this point.
To put it bluntly, everything the Roman Empire does now is to prevent things from becoming like that.
Yuan Tan was stunned when he heard this, restrained his madness and excitement on his face. Indeed, the Roman Empire was not stupid. How could he even Yuan Tan think of something that he could have thought of? So under such a big crisis, if the Roman Empire did not want to explode itself, it would have to produce food as soon as possible, but at this time...
Yuan Tan's face began to turn blue and white from madness and excitement, and his face changed blue and red at the end.
"So, the Roman Empire wants me to borrow food?" Yuan Tan looked at Huangfu Song and asked. This was the most likely answer that Yuan Tan could think of. After all, the Yuan family really had food.
"No, if you think deeper, borrowing grain is only one aspect, and there are even bigger pits behind it." Huangfu Song sighed, "Duke Zhong, think about it in a worse way. Rome is only a few steps away from the collapse, and you are the only person who can solve the problem. What will Rome deal with it."
"You can die at worst!" Yuan Tan said with a sneer. What else can he do with Rome? I have fought with you in a principality. You have done it before. I will not borrow any food. I will set up a front line in the Ural Mountains to fight with you Rome. I will hold on for a few months. If you don't have food, you Rome will collapse. I won the defense and counterattack. I will pick up the corpses of your Roman Empire directly. What's there to be afraid of?
"Uh." Huangfu Song looked at Yuan Tan, and it seemed reasonable. Yuan Tan still had such a temper after so many years of experience. Besides, Yuan Tan realized that Rome had only half a year left, so Yuan Tan seemed to be really not cowardly. If he directly defended on Ural Mountain, he might not be able to hold on.
"Tell me, General Huangfu, you can let you be a lobbyist. The Roman Empire should have brought out anything that the Han Dynasty could not refuse." Yuan Tan looked at Huangfu Song calmly, completely different from the previous madness, and became extremely calm. He seemed to be the king who shouldered the Yuan family and was based in Eastern Europe.
"I didn't come up with anything that the Han Dynasty could not refuse, but the Roman Senate felt that the world without Rome was meaningless." Huangfu Song looked at Yuan Tan and said frankly, but this sentence shattered all Yuan Tan's pride like thunder.
What is strength and what is boldness? That's it. The world without me is meaningless, and I can do this. So when one day I really encounter a disaster and cannot get through it, and I am unwilling to die calmly, everyone must do their best to help me through this crisis.
It’s not kindness or respect, it’s because I have the awareness and ability to ruin this world!
"Is there no meaningless world without the Roman Empire?" Yuan Tan said bitterly, "Speak up, what the Roman Empire wants, or what they have needs, please tell me. The Yuan family will agree to it within their ability, but our Yuan family is also human. If they insist on letting us die, then don't blame us for fighting with them. Although our Yuan family cannot achieve their Roman level, it is still possible to destroy the remaining grain-producing land in Rome."
Huangfu Song looked at Yuan Tan. Yuan Tan did not avoid his eyes. He was not joking, it was true. If he was desperate, Rome could blow up human civilization, then the Yuan family could at least destroy the grain-producing land in northern Rome first. What is strategic military preparations? Isn’t it just for this? Is it all to die together!
"His Majesty Severu said that you need to be appointed as the Duke of the Northeastern border county of Rome, governing all parts of Eastern Europe, exercising the right to keep taxes, and also known as Augustus, enjoying the treatment of deputy emperors, and leaving you with twelve senators in the Senate." Huangfu Song directly stated Severu's conditions.
"Oh, what should I do with the Celtics I ruled? Are they not Rome's mortal enemies? What if I take my little wife as a Roman veteran? And Cyprian also?" Yuan Tan was very calm when he heard this, asking as if he was fine, but for some reason Huangfu Song felt the fear from the bottom of his heart, just like seeing Liu Bang who wanted to get a piece of the pie through time and space, and Gou Jian who was lying on firewood and tasting gall.
"There are no Celtics, only free people under the Duke's rank, no Celtic veterans, only the Duchess." Huangfu Song said so.
Get up late, and the corresponding characters' language needs to be practiced normally
