Daqin: Signing in at the beginning of the game is ten times as powerful as Lu Bu's, and Ying Yu wins Chapter 581 The confidence brought by the turtle shell
Chapter 581 The confidence brought by the turtle shell
The fortress on the Roman border, which was like a tortoise shell and had strong defense, gave Carthage confidence.
Some Carthaginian soldiers and military generals even believed that they could compete with the Qin army with these fortresses.
After hearing the adjutant's words, even Hannibal felt a glimmer of hope in his heart.
Maybe they can really use these fortresses to defeat the Qin army, which is known as the world's most powerful force.
"Your Majesty General, based on the reports from our spies in Da Qin and Rome."
"Since His Highness Prince Ying Yu of Great Qin had just married Princess Sophie of Rome, and his other crown prince's concubine was pregnant with a child, the whole country of Great Qin was immersed in a festive atmosphere. Basically,
It is impossible to send troops."
"In order to celebrate the marriage of their Princess Sophie to the Qin Dynasty, Rome also carried out various celebration activities. Even the Roman army stationed outside our defense wall relaxed a lot for this."
"Your Majesty General, you didn't plan to lead our Carthaginian army to capture Roman lands, or even their capital. Now is a great time for our Carthaginian army to attack!"
The adjutant said with excitement.
"Having said that, we must not be careless. The reason why the Roman garrison allowed us to succeed in the surprise attack so easily last time was that although there were reasons for our suspicious tactics, the main reason was because they lacked a capable person.
The general who presides over the overall situation."
"At that time, Scipio was busy implementing his new policy and had no time to take into account the situation of the Roman garrison. This made it so easy for us to catch him in one fell swoop."
"Now that Rome has lost its important border fortress, a large area of Roman land is directly exposed to our Carthaginian army. Even their Roman capital is in danger. In such a dangerous situation, no matter how busy Scipio is with his political affairs,
We have to take over the command of the army again."
"If the current Roman army was commanded by Scipio, based on my understanding of him, how could his cautious character make the Carthaginian army so relaxed and lazy?"
"Therefore, it is very possible that Scipio is learning what he is doing now and deliberately exposing his flaws in order to deceive our Carthaginian army, thinking that today's Roman army is relaxed and lazy and can be easily defeated. In fact, this is very possible
But despite their appearance, they are actually well-trained and prepared for a long time, just waiting for our Carthaginian army to be fooled."
"I did say before that we will wait until our soldiers have adjusted their physical condition and everyone is familiar with the various facilities in the fortress before launching an attack on Rome."
"But the situation in Rome is not clear yet. If we attack rashly, we are likely to fall into Scipio's trap."
"We are no better than before. In the past, even if we lost, we could still retreat to the Carthage defense line.
But since we disregarded Rome's status as the in-law country of Great Qin and occupied Rome's border fortress with a trick, it means that we have offended Great Qin, the most powerful country in the world."
"Under such a situation, our Carthage nobles, who were greedy for life and feared death, immediately sent envoys to send various priceless tributes to the Qin Dynasty, even to express to the Qin Dynasty that this matter had nothing to do with them.
, they have even announced to the public that we are all traitors and traitors, depriving us of our identity as Carthaginians."
"In other words, now we have no country and no retreat. Once we fail, we will truly lose everything!"
"Since the risk is so high, it's better to postpone it for a few days and observe the situation in Rome first."
Hannibal shook his head and said seriously.
As old rivals who had competed with each other for several years, Hannibal's understanding of Scipio was basically the same as his understanding of his right and left hands.
Scipio was always very cautious in running his army. As long as the enemy did not reveal any flaws and was not completely sure of victory, he would never rush out to attack the enemy. Instead, he would choose to hold on and wait for the opportunity to come.
And as long as he made a mistake once, Scipio would never make it again next time. His style was very similar to Lian Po, the famous Zhao general before the Qin Dynasty was unified. Both of them could be said to be as immovable as a mountain and as moving as thunder.
This is also the reason why the Carthaginian army was obviously stronger than the Roman army, but it was still unable to crack this hard nut, and even suffered defeats repeatedly when facing the Roman army.
Therefore, when Hannibal heard his adjutant say that the Roman army was very relaxed now, Hannibal was not excited, but instead felt a strong sense of vigilance in his heart.
Because the first thing he thought of was not an excellent fighter plane, but a trap set by Scipio.
After hearing Hannibal's words, the adjutant immediately became anxious.
"However, the Roman army is indeed loose now. The lights in their camps are getting less and less day by day, indicating that many Roman soldiers have escaped or left on vacation. These are our spies lurking in the overall situation of Rome.
If you see it with your own eyes, it will definitely not be fake.”
"And even if this is Scipio's trap, it doesn't matter. Even if our Carthaginian army is really fooled, the people of Great Qin are still in a state of joy, celebrating the wedding and marriage of His Highness Prince Yingyu. It's not at all
You don’t have time to pay attention to the battle on our side.”
"As long as Da Qin's reinforcements have not arrived, the weak combat effectiveness of their Roman army will not change the outcome of their defeat at all."
"Ten thousand steps back, even if Da Qin's reinforcements suddenly arrive, we can just retreat to the fortress immediately. With the fortress's powerful defense function, as long as we can't hold on, I believe that even Da Qin's army will be unable to do anything."
The adjutant analyzed the pros and cons of attacking Rome in detail to Hannibal.
And after listening to the adjutant's lucid analysis of the situation, Hannibal's originally frowning brow slowly began to relax, and his eyes couldn't help but twinkle with light.
Yes, so what if this is Scipio's trap?
Today, the combat effectiveness of the Roman army is far inferior to that of the Carthaginian army. The Roman army almost never wins in frontal battles with their Carthaginian army.
Even before, Hannibal almost led the Carthaginian army to directly wipe out the entire Roman army in frontal battles several times.
If it weren't for the group of Carthaginian nobles, who were worried that his achievements would shock the emperor after destroying the Roman army, and refused to provide material support, the Roman army would have been gone long ago, and how could it survive to this day?
Later, the reason why the Roman army was able to compete with their Carthaginian army was entirely because their Roman border fortresses were too strong.
In addition, Scipio was here, so the stalemate between them lasted for so long.
