Wu Zhu, dressed in black, ran away first with a certain indifference, carrying a baggage, driving a horse, and more than a hundred guards. The reason was very good.
"Who is this guy?" The judge stroked his beard and looked at the other person's back, but couldn't find a corresponding image in his mind.
"I don't know, I just know that this guy is one of our own." Chen Gong shook his head and said, "I have seen Jia Wen and that folding fan before. They are genuine. What's more, he and we are both of Chinese Miao origin and a traitor to the clan.
This kind of thing cannot be done.”
"That's right." Shen Pei nodded and said.
"In this case, we need to think carefully about our next arrangement. Before the other party clicks on it, it is difficult to think of it. But after it is clicked on, although this point is incredible, we have to admit that it is indeed the most reasonable possibility."
Zhuge Liang also said with a solemn expression, "Are we going to put this news to rest?"
"It's better not to give it to me." Lu Meng said with a sneer, then turned and left.
"I think so too, it's better not to give. Before we can't guarantee what actions they will take and whether it will affect us, it's best not to give." Sima Yi also sneered, which was a mockery of people's hearts.
Once a broad road is cut out of the Zagros Mountains, there will be no need to talk about strategies and plans in the war between Parthia and Rome. In other words, the Romans completed the strategic revision in one go and successfully brought the war into their own hands.
Rhythm.
This is the biggest strategy in war, which is the so-called using one's own strengths to attack the enemy's weaknesses. And just like this, the Romans' tactics were pushed to the extreme.
As for any tactics used by the Parthians in the future, they may not be able to survive continuously. Once the Zagros Mountains are opened, then for Rome, there will be a smooth road between itself and the Parthian capital.
Of course, for the Parthians, this is basically the beginning of the annihilation of the country. If it had been like this a hundred years earlier, the Parthians, who had no geographical advantage to rely on, but still had the guarantee of national strength, might have had some kind of military and political crisis due to the disappearance of the geographical advantage.
Reform and rely on strength to continue the national prosperity.
Now, there is only one way to rest, and that is to die. They have no ability to resist the Roman attack and change the domestic military and political system at the same time.
"The next thing is what I am best at." Wu Zhu in black slowly raised his hand to cover the winter sun with a solemn expression, "The seven nobles of Anxi are probably very interested in the position of Emperor Anxi.
If they had a chance, they would probably be like dogs snatching meat and bones."
"It's really fun to play chess with the throne as bait. How many pieces should we divide this country into?" Wu Zhu had a sarcastic look on his face. This was his disdain for the machinations and his own disdain.
Disdainful.
The Romans on the other side, who had originally planned to divide their forces, with most of the main force going to attack Armenia and the other part going to paddle the two rivers, suddenly received new orders.
"You mean, we should attack Mesopotamia?" Severus frowned and looked at Novelli and said in confusion.
"No, Your Majesty, what I mean is that we should focus our attack on Mesopotamia." Novelli shook his head and said, "This is the latest conclusion we have come to. Compared with Armenia, it is actually better to
The Zagros Mountains are better suited to realize our strategy."
"Reason." Severus didn't have anything else to say. It's okay to change the military order, but you have to give me a reason.
"The collapse of Sheikh Mountain has given our staff team other ideas, such as demolishing the Zagros Mountains and opening a road from west to east to connect us with Parthia in a practical sense. At that time, we will destroy Parthia.
It's just a matter of one sentence." Fabio, another civil servant on the staff team, said slowly.
Severus was stunned when he heard this, and then he realized that as a military strategist, he had his own understanding of geographical advantages. Fabio's words made him stunned, and at the same time he understood the meaning of this plan. Simply
Rough, and extremely seductive.
"Open a highway directly?" Severus frowned and said, "Do we have the strength now?"
"Yes, although we alone do not have the power of the god Lu Bu, but with our large legions mobilized in a unified manner and dispatched by the parliamentary guards, there will be no problem in using legion attacks to break through the Zagros Mountains." Perennis walked up slowly.
Said before speaking.
"Without the suppression of the legion's cloud, our attack can reach its maximum power, and without the protection of the cloud, the Zagros Mountains can be easily destroyed by us." Fabio said with great confidence.
Severus turned to look at the other staff officers, who all nodded silently, indicating that this was true.
"In that case, the whole army marches on the two rivers." Severus didn't bother to hide his thoughts. What he wanted was to crush and push him flat. This wave of his will make the Parthians despair. It has been going on for hundreds of years.
Tired of it, it's time to break the Parthian people's backs and let them return to the dust.
"Your Majesty, our staff team unanimously believes that we should advance Armenia and the Mesopotamia together." Piponianus also participated in the previous collaborative analysis, so he decisively stood up and suggested at this time.
"Why?" Severus' calm eyes revealed a hint of power.
"Winning two wars can help Anxi understand the gap in strength between the two sides better than winning one, especially when both sides are being crushed." Fabio said slowly.
For someone as strong as Severus, talking about losses and battle losses is meaningless, especially after Piponianus, the Roman financial officer, told Fabio and other core members of the staff group part of the true situation.
There is another understanding of loss.
Although the elite legion is very important and the large army is very important, compared to the more important Roman citizens and the extremely important Roman Empire, larger battle losses are more meaningful, allowing the barbarian army to be organized and large-scale.
Death, to a certain extent, is also a way to stop losses.
Therefore, Fabio did not directly mention the strategies involved, but went to prove the power of the Roman Empire more simply and directly. As for the battle damage, just wash it off and sleep. As long as the dead are not Roman citizens, they will be rolled up in a straw mat and buried in the ground.
Just bury it and don't have to worry about these things at all.
On the contrary, more barbarians died. Compared with the current extremely high expenditure on raising soldiers, the pensions may be smaller. The Roman Empire's huge barbarian army should really be streamlined and cut off those with less than one talent, okay?
, those with less than two talents can be cut off.
"Winning two crushing wars at the same time will highlight the strength gap between the two sides more than fighting only one war?" Severus repeated it silently, and then changed the war order, with Perennis leading the emperor's escort.
The official legion, as well as three dual-talented Eagle Banner Legions, three elite Eagle Banner Legions, and a large number of barbarian legions went to Armenia.
"Huh, this should be no problem." Piponianus breathed a long sigh of relief. If you can save some military expenses, let's save some first. Open source can't be done now, so let's think about how to intercept the traffic first.
The news that Fars, Sassan and others were defeated and retreated to the Two Rivers was conveyed to Ctesiphon at an alarming speed, but Vorogis V had not yet completely subdued the domestic nobles at this time.
Although Vologis V relied on his previous victory in the counterattack against Rome in the Mesopotamia to sweep away the shadow of the country's previous consecutive defeats against Rome, and successfully gained a lot of popularity, this was far from what Vologis V thought.
There is still a long way to go to completely subdue the domestic nobles and integrate the Parthian Empire. Unfortunately, there is not enough time.
"Tell, tell the Esfandel family, tell him that I agree to their request, but the Achaemenid dynasty's guard infantry that their family has always retained must be handed over to me to deal with the Roman legion!" Volo!
Gis V looked at his guards with a solemn expression, and finally made up his mind.
Different from Rome and the Han Dynasty, if the armies of the Han Dynasty and Rome are controlled by special families except for a few, the rest belong to the country to be precise, even if the generals can temporarily
It is impossible to truly pass on an entire legion as a family strength by relying on personal charm.
However, the biggest difference between Anxi and Kushan is that the power controlled by the country may not be able to overwhelm certain families. Some families themselves are self-contained and have military strength and generals.
For example, the Sullun family, which was forcibly overthrown by Vologis V, had their own army and part of the country's land. It should even be said that they themselves were a kingdom that formed the empire.
After all, this place is one of the birthplaces of the oldest civilization. There was an empire before this place, and some families existed longer than the country.
Of course, the Han Dynasty also has this problem, but the Han Dynasty does not have the situation where a family controls an entire legion. Although there are some weird families that do have some elite troops, the number is definitely not too many. As for the establishment and scale, the Han Dynasty
There are almost no rooms here.
As for Rome, the Julius family would be there, but these two countries are definitely not as crazy as Kushan and Anxi.
There are some families in Anxi and Guishuang that existed in the previous dynasty, and they have elite regiments with an organized system. As for the Han Dynasty, the nobles passed down before the Qin Dynasty have been transformed into aristocratic families. It is a pity that even if the Eastern Han Dynasty is timid, it is relatively speaking.
of.
At least it would not allow those aristocratic families to actually have large-scale legions. Anyone who dared to do so would have been suppressed long ago due to mutual constraints.
However, the method of military training has never been lost as far back as the Warring States Period when it was practiced by Wu Qi, Pang Juan, Sun Bin, Le Yi, etc. It was just because the state was too strict that they did not dare to mess with it.
