Shaq stared at the middle-aged man with murderous intent in his eyes. He felt that no one knew about this. As long as he killed the person in front of him, everything could be regarded as never before.

The middle-aged man seemed to see what Shak was thinking, and laughed sarcastically, saying, "It is very simple for the General to kill me. But if I die, the letter written by the General to Her Majesty the Queen will appear in the hands of the Han people.

What do the general thinks the Han Dynasty will deal with you?"

Shaq's face was very embarrassed. Thinking of the letters he had written to the Roman Empress, he felt so regretful that his intestines were blue. Then he snorted coldly: "Don't think that this would threaten me. I captured you and then took you to the Han Dynasty to apologize.

The Han Dynasty would not kill me.”

The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Yes. In this case, the Han Dynasty people would not have killed the general. But the general, if such a thing happens, do you think you can still stay in the Persian army?

The status you finally achieved before will no longer exist, and you will become a civilian with nothing from now on... "

Shaq's face was pale and could not speak, and even his palms couldn't help but tremble. For a person like Shaq, if he was deprived of power, it would be more terrible than killing him!

The middle-aged man saw Shaq's expression in his eyes. His originally nervous mood is now basically stable.

He smiled slightly and said, "Actually, the general doesn't have to worry about anything at all. As long as the general continues to cooperate with us, these problems will not exist."

Shaq looked at the middle-aged man with a resentful look on his face and said angrily: "You can't beat the Han Dynasty people, so I'm afraid I will be dead if I continue to cooperate with you!"

The middle-aged man said seriously: "The general's words are wrong. Our army was just a trap of despicable and cowardly Han people and was defeated for a while. The final winner of this battle is now undecided.

It should be noted that although the situation of our army on Antioch is slightly unfavorable, in Byzantium, the three major barbarian coalition forces far exceed the enemy's strength! The reason why the enemy can still persist is just because of the strong city walls of Byzantium!

However, even the strongest city wall will be broken one day. The three major barbarian coalitions have been attacking for many days, and the time to break through Byzantium is not far away!

At that time, the three major barbarian coalitions could sweep across Asia Minor to attack Antioch! In addition to our attack, the Han people of Antioch were like flocks in front of wolves, and there was absolutely no possibility of resisting!"

After hearing this, Shaq's frown gradually stretched out.

The middle-aged man looked at Shaq and continued, "If the Persian army cooperated, we would not have to wait until the barbarian coalition went south, and we could capture Antioch ourselves. After that, we could help the general to seize the Persian throne."

Shaq was very moved, but frowned and said, "Just with the current Roman army, even if we add us, it would be difficult to defeat the Han people and occupy Antioch!

I'm afraid that if one of them is not done well, we will put ourselves in danger... "

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "If the general can cooperate, we have a way to annihilate Nicosia, at least it will severely damage the Han people!"

Shaq was very curious.

Protectorate.

Jia Xu stood alone in front of the map, his eyes wandering back and forth between Antioch and Byzantium, with a light of wisdom flashing in his eyes.

At this time, an officer came in quickly and bowed to Jia Xu: "Sir, the person sent has a reply."

Jia Xu turned around and asked, "Sure enough, is there something wrong?"

The officer nodded and reported the report he had just received to Jia Xu.

Jia Xu smiled slightly and murmured, "It's interesting." Then he said to the officer, "You go down." The officer shouted and retreated.

As soon as the officer left, another officer ran in and hurriedly clasped his fists at Jia Xu and said, "Sir, Your Majesty is here!"

Jia Xu was shocked and hurried out to greet him. He saw Liu Xian, who was covered in dust, come in surrounded by everyone.

Jia Xu quickly stepped forward and bowed: "I pay homage to Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty!"

Liu Xian helped Jia Xu up and said with a smile: "Wenhe doesn't have to be too polite."

Jia Xu quickly invited Liu Xian and others into the hall. Liu Xian walked to the upper seat and sat down, while the others stood in the hall.

Liu Xian glanced at Jia Xu and praised with a smile: "On the way I came, I heard about the Battle of Antioch that ended not long ago.

Wen and you did a good job, not only severely hitting the enemy, but also hitting their arrogance! The situation has become beneficial to us now!"

Jia Xu frowned and said, "The situation is still serious now, and the key point is Byzantium. If Meng Qi can defend Byzantium, it will be a matter of time before he achieves complete victory..."

Liu Xian heard a little worried in Jia Xu's words and nodded thinking. He also roughly understood the situation of Byzantine, thinking that although Ma Chao was strong, the military strength between the two sides was very different, so it is hard to say how the Byzantine War will develop!

Jia Xu continued: "So, the wealth minister is preparing to launch a full-scale counterattack against Nicosia, and strive to annihilate it in one battle, at least completely defeat the Roman army, so that we can free up our hands to deal with the three major barbarian coalition forces!"

Liu Xian nodded thinking and said to Jia Xu: "Since the matter here is handed over to Wenhe, Wenhe will naturally be fully responsible! Wenhe doesn't have to ask me for instructions on everything, just let it go! If there is really any problem, I will be your backing!"

Jia Xu was moved and said with a fist: "I will definitely live up to Your Majesty's trust."

Liu Xian smiled slightly and said, "In addition, I have ordered the Wusun Army and the Anxi Army, a total of 150,000 people to move here, and they will arrive in about half a month."

Jia Xu was overjoyed and said with his fists: "If such a new force joins the battlefield, the empress will surely be as stable as Mount Tai."

Liu Xian nodded with a smile.

The news that Liu Xian, the great Han emperor, arrived in Antioch soon spread throughout almost half of the Mediterranean region.

Some people are happy, some are worried, and some people are secretly excited, thinking that a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity has finally come.

After two days of intense preparations, the preparations were finally completed. That morning, the army on the coast west of Antioch gathered, and the Han army, the Hun army and the Persian army began to board the ship in an orderly manner.

The horses were neighing and people shouting one after another, making this large area look particularly noisy.

Liu Xian stood on the city wall in military uniform and looked at the scene by the sea, with a look of thought in his eyes.

At this time, the Persian princess Nisya, dressed in military uniform, followed a black-clad officer to Liu Xian, looked at Liu Xian, and bowed: "Your Majesty!..."
