Just when the Romans were discussing how to fight the other side tomorrow, the credentials from the Han Dynasty were presented. The Romans were a little confused when they saw the credentials requesting a six-day truce.
"What do you think the Han army wants to do and why they suddenly asked for a six-day truce?" Severus asked his staff with a puzzled look.
After the Han army sent the official credentials, Severus looked obviously a little strange. Originally, he planned to practice today and lead his troops to rush directly from the swamp tomorrow using the eagle flag ability of the Fourteenth Legion. But now
Received the credentials of the Han Dynasty.
"Although the reason is unclear, based on the scope of the wetland we currently have, as long as we don't use the eagle flag of the Fourteenth Army, then even if they don't ask for a six-day truce, it will be difficult for us to pass through the wetland within six days.
"Pipponus said weakly.
Although he had made a decision before, for a while, Piponianus was disgusted to death by the wetland. Of course, more importantly, he knew very well that if possible, it would be better to adjust the combat time.
, his words and Fabio’s words before were more to boost confidence than to act resolutely...
The Roman staff had thought of various ways before, but the Romans had never thought of using wetlands as a defensive circle. It should be said that this was the first time in the history of Roman war that the enemy had made a large-scale attack.
Wetlands as fortifications in warfare.
If it is other conventional defenses, with the current Roman military strength, one legion can basically teach the other side how to behave by attacking. However, if it is replaced by a wetland, ten legions attack and explode. If you blow up the front, the back will be wiped out.
.
Of course, the most important point is that these are wetlands and fog created by the enemy, which goes against Roman war common sense. Therefore, no matter whether the method is good or not, we must find a way to solve it as soon as possible, and we must not let the opponent leave a shadow on our souls.
.
"So we all agree that they probably don't want to go to war with us recently." Fabio said with speculation, "Even the swamps and fog are just to make us stop and wait with them for six days."
"Are we going to wait for their reinforcements to arrive?" Sulinalali suddenly asked with a smile.
"How can there be reinforcements? I'm afraid Anxi is gathering as many troops as possible to rush to Armenia for defense. Here, it's meaningless to just have some reinforcements coming from Anxi." Aristonos laughed, because Armenia's
Geographically, that place was almost the death spot for Xi'an, so the Romans knew very well that Xi'an would move out of there as soon as possible.
As for the Mesopotamia, well, it is very important, but how should I put it? In the past few hundred years, I have not touched the Mesopotamia for most of the time. Isn’t it possible to live well? At most, I can only remember the past.
It's no big deal if you spit it out after eating it.
Therefore, although the two rivers are important, they will definitely not be enough for Vorogis V to deal with them desperately. Reinforcements may come, but they will definitely not exceed 50,000.
The more important point is that in the eyes of the Romans, there is no need to calculate that small amount of troops. If there are tens of thousands more Parthian troops and less than tens of thousands Parthian troops, they come with the idea of crushing you. Why should you care about your reinforcements?
how many.
"That makes sense." Ganassis said suddenly. He saw Piponianus' gesture. Although he didn't quite understand what the other party meant, as an honest, fair and capable congressman, he added:
Narcisse is still willing to show respect.
"Ordinarily, what we should do on the battlefield is to destroy what the enemy wants to do, but compared to the Han Dynasty, I think we need to think about it carefully." Novelli touched his chin and said, he already understood.
Thoughts of Pipponus.
Although the Eagle Flag of the Fourteenth Combined Legion is very reliable, Novelli is a little entangled with Fabio's boldness. What if he gets to the middle and can't play anymore, and tens of thousands of people sink, what should he do? First
I used an eagle flag to bless everyone for the first time. I have never done anything like this before.
Even if one of the duties of the Roman staff is to jointly connect the eagle flag with their consciousness and then project it into the consciousness of the soldiers without loss, forming a common ability, but the consciousness of more than a dozen staff members are connected to an eagle flag, and use this rod to
The eagle flag was simultaneously blessing the 170,000 troops, and Novelli was really afraid.
After all, this kind of thing has never been done before. Although theoretically speaking, the Eagle Flag can indeed cover everything, but everyone knows that there is an upper limit for the number of people with a single staff consciousness connected with the Eagle Flag, and the talent of casting the Eagle Flag to the soldiers. Even if it exceeds the limit,
It can be a blessing, but what can I say? The more people who join at that time, the weaker the blessing effect will be.
So in Rome, it was often the case that the two staff officers connected with the Eagle Flag and gave the blessing of the Eagle Flag to the legion led by the Eagle Flag Legion, and then the other two staff officers connected with the other Eagle Flag and gave the blessing to the legion led by the other Eagle Flag Legion.
Perform the blessing of this talent.
In other words, when Fabio confidently said that there was absolutely no problem, in fact, no one in the entire Roman staff had ever done this kind of thing, and it was all based on experience.
Therefore, Novelli's idea is that it is better to train for a few more days to confirm the situation, so as not to make mistakes and trap one of his own people to death.
Of course, Novelli also knew that the reason why Fabio and Piponianus were so firm before was to erase the shadow that the Han Dynasty might have the ability to change the celestial phenomena. But with such determination, Novelli
Li is very uneasy, what if he misses it?
That's a swamp, not a river. If the river boat capsizes, you can still swim back. Try swimming in the swamp. I don't believe you can swim in the swamp. If it capsizes, God knows if there will be a wave of death in the swamp.
There are hundreds of thousands of people, so they will definitely be crucified on the pillar of shame.
Therefore, Novelli decisively supported the six-day truce. Six days were enough for people like them to predict various possible situations and list various solutions. By then, they would be safer when crossing the swamp.
A lot is guaranteed.
What's more important is that in six days, even without the Eagle Flag solution, they might be able to come up with a new solution.
As soon as Novelli opened his mouth, Piponianus followed up decisively. Just as Novelli guessed, Piponianus said what he said just to stabilize the morale of the army.
The Han Empire is really awesome, it can change the sky, we Rome is not good at it, you can change the sky, I can force it through, who is afraid of whom, do you really think that you Han Dynasty will fight against the sky and the earth? We Romans are not parallel imports,
It's just a battle between heaven and earth. To kill the gods, you must kill the gods!
"Speaking of which, today I saw Mr. Jian changing into very luxurious clothes." Piponianus rolled his eyes and said.
As soon as these words came out, many people in the big tent nodded, forcing everyone's attention to one side. Today, many people saw Jian Yong's wide-sleeved brocade soap robe.
Although the red and black colors are not in line with the aesthetics of the Romans, the clothes and the colors match it, and there is an obvious power in the movements of his hands and feet. Well, the Romans looked more at Jian Yong. The clothes are drooling.
Even if all of you here are big aristocrats in the Roman system, even if you are not a big aristocrat, you are still a high-ranking officer who is not short of money.
However, facing the price of silk which was not too exaggerated in this period, that is, the price of one pound of raw silk and three pounds of gold, they drooled when they looked at Jian Yong's clothes.
There was no way, compared to the silk that the Romans could obtain, Shu brocade was originally a luxury product for Han nobles, and its output was not very high even in the Central Plains.
Naturally, the Romans could obtain very few luxury goods known for their splendor, and since Jian Yong was a veteran under Liu Bei after all, the Shu brocade used as a dress was of course the best of the best.
To put it simply, after the Romans truly saw Jian Yong, who had not paid much attention to clothing before, wearing a gorgeous outfit that dazzled them, they completely understood what luxury and majesty meant, and had a clear understanding of the wealth of the Han Dynasty.
"Speaking of which, the Han Dynasty's envoys seem to have put on new clothes today." After Piponianus spoke again, even Severus' attention was diverted to the Han Dynasty's clothing materials, silk It's so beautiful.
"It's probably some kind of festival." Severus thought for a while and said. There are also some festivals in Rome that are popular among the people, so he can understand the behavior of the Han Dynasty.
"Your Majesty, I'm going to ask the Han envoy. If so, it's not impossible to give the Han army some face. After all, the coming war is not a trivial matter, and we need to make more preparations." Pipenannus recommended himself. He compared He likes to go to Jian Yong's place to enjoy the autumn breeze. As far as he knows, Jian Yong's place has at least two boxes of silk used for making clothes.
Occasionally, with good luck, when Pipponannus came to visit with a gift of official history, Jian Yong would give him a volume as a return gift. Of course, he would never tell anyone else about this kind of thing.
"That's fine." Severus thought for a while and said, also feeling that if it was a national holiday, it would be a bit excessive to attack the opponent.
Of course, the main reason is that the current strength of the Han Dynasty is really too strong. It is so strong that the Romans also need to consider the thoughts of the Han Dynasty. More importantly, Severus does not care about the reinforcements of Anxi. There is nothing wrong with completing the battle. .
Pipponus ran to the independent camp of the Han army. The Han envoys were all dressed in fine clothes, singing and drinking in the sun. The atmosphere was extremely joyful.
"Your Excellency, Treasurer, do you want to come for a banquet?" Jian Yong said with a smile while holding the wine glass. The free and easy and publicity in the intoxication made Pippin Annus deeply feel Jian Yong's indulgence.
Based on Pipponus' understanding of Jian Yong, he was a funny, intelligent, but steady nobleman. This natural indulgence and the joyful atmosphere of the banquet made him clearly understand that this was probably a Han Dynasty. A very important holiday.
