Battleship? ”

After Liu Wei received the letter from Romulus Augustus for the decisive battle, he was stunned for a moment.

Although he was prepared, he really didn't think about it, he didn't expect that this time this Romulus Augustus would still play this set.

"This Romulus Augustus wants to disperse our forces in this way, and he doesn't think that our people are good at water warfare."

Guo Jia immediately spoke on the side, and he naturally quickly understood the intentions of Romulus Augustus.

"Since he wants to play, let's have fun, just try our steamship." Liu Wei immediately smiled and said.

joked that they were all soldiers and horses who were prepared to cross the ocean, how could they not be familiar with water warfare.

Half of the original 200,000 people were good at water warfare.

However, it is estimated that there are only about 70,000 now, because there has been no chance of water warfare, and it is all land warfare.

Therefore, the casualties of those soldiers were greater, and in order to be safe, after the fall of the Rest Empire, some of its city-states near the rivers also left soldiers who were familiar with water warfare.

Liu Wei is very clear, not to mention steam ships, before steam ships, ancient shipbuilding technology has always been the leading in China.

The fleets and fleets of the Ming Dynasty can teach them to be people, and they are all younger brothers.

Now the steamship is far ahead of the technology, so there is no need to be afraid.

After defeating Carthage, the Roman Empire dominated the Mediterranean, and then continued to expand and build a great empire.

Now he happens to be fighting naval battles in the Mediterranean, teaching the Roman Empire a good lesson to conquer them completely.

Liu Wei then directly told Romulus Augustus that he was willing to engage him in a land and sea battle.

Isn't it just a division of troops, who is afraid of whom?

Liu Wei even directly told Romulus Augustus that he would personally command the naval battle, which meant that he would appear at sea.

This is tantamount to a declaration of war and a provocation.

After replying to the letter, Liu Wei began to calculate how to arrange the battle.

The battle in the west has ended, and the people taken by Ma Chao have also converged two days ago.

I have to say that this time is really very timely, and Liu Wei will know it after the statistics come out.

Now there are fewer soldiers in the water war than he estimated before, after all, Ma Chao did not have any casualties when he went west.

Therefore, there were not more than 70,000, but only 68,000, so Liu Wei transferred 2,000 people who were slightly familiar with water warfare to replace them, and gathered 70,000 people.

There were only 70,000 men fighting on land, 20,000 fewer than the original 160,000.

Wounded soldiers and defenders of the city-state accounted for the majority.

But this also shows that as long as there are battles and wars, even the most powerful army will have casualties.

"This emperor of the East is simply too deceitful, he is so blatant, he simply does not take our Roman Empire seriously."

"Well, since he is also in command of naval battles, then I will go myself, so that I will personally capture him and throw him directly into the sea when the time comes."

Romulus Augustus said with a grim face, this is a shame, he feels a deep insult.

Lu Zhan himself has already been defeated and retreated, and now the other party says that he will personally command the naval battle, which is naturally an insult to him.

How could Romulus Augustus endure it?

"Führer, don't be impulsive, the other party is so sure, or let's forget it and concentrate all the men and horses to deal with the eastern army on land."

The elders of the Senate looked at Romulus Augustus and spoke.

"Could it be that on land, we will have a greater grasp?"

"Besides, what if this is the other party's bluff, and then they can easily scare our army and directly give up the advantage of having a chance to win, so what?"

But soon, someone had a different opinion.

At this time, they are already losing and retreating, is there something worse than that?

Now the worst outcome is that the Roman Empire is conquered, and that's it, so there is no need to worry too much about it.

So in the end, everyone agreed to such a plan.

However, Romulus Augustus led not only 70,000 troops, but 250,000 troops.

It's a scary number.

However, this also shows the strength of the Roman Empire, even the Roman Empire, which is now gradually weakening, can have such a background.

Of course, there is another factor in this, and that is the all-or-nothing bet.

Romulus Augustus felt that if the Roman Empire was gone, then they would be useless.

If that's the case, then naturally it's better to just go all the way.

The Roman Empire's 250,000 naval troops were even more numerous on land, also 350,000.

That's more than 500,000 people, and this number is very scary, after all, although the population in ancient times was quite a lot, it certainly can't be compared with modern times.

It can be seen that this time Romulus Augustus has staked all the foundations.

In other words, as long as Liu Wei's army wins this time, then the Roman Empire will no longer have a decent army to stop them.

Even in the Roman Empire, there are fewer adult and middle-aged men, more than one-tenth.

The big battle was in August, which was the hottest time, but that was why Liu Wei didn't want to continue to delay time.

If we continue to entangle, then this year will be over.

The sea breeze was blowing, and Liu Wei stood on the deck, and around him were steamships, large and small, a total of one hundred and fifty.

By Liu Wei's side are Guan Yu, as well as Zhou Cang, who has always been by Guan Yu's side and never takes the initiative to dispatch, as well as Wei Yan.

After all, Zhou Cang and Guan Yu's affection Liu Wei is also very touched.

This time, Liu Wei deliberately asked Zhou Cang to come over because Zhou Cang was familiar with water.

In history, when Guan Yu flooded the Seventh Army, it was Zhou Cang who jumped into the water and arrested Yu Ban and Pang De.

Wei Yan was originally also a general in Jingzhou, so although he was not a naval army, he knew a little bit about it.

So this time, Liu Wei did not let Wei Yan stay on land.

On the contrary, Zhao Yun, Lu Bu, Ma Chao, and they are all on land, after all, they don't know much about water, and the pressure on land is also very great.

At least on the surface.

Liu Wei only had one hundred and fifty ships, but they were all big ships, and they were such steam ships in the first place.

The next moment, the Roman Empire's navy was already here, and this scene can be said to be very spectacular.

They could see that the sea in front of them was densely packed, all of which were in the Roman Empire's fleet.

Liu Wei wondered if they had directly flattened the entire sea.

However, the fleet of the Roman Empire seems to be very large, overwhelming, and it is directly black and overwhelming.

However, most of their ships were not as big as Liu Wei's steamboats, and they also had a lot of people, so they naturally needed more ships.

Romulus Augustus was originally very worried, and he was a little apprehensive.

But when he saw that Liu Wei only had about one hundred and fifty boats, he immediately burst out laughing.

With such a small number of ships, he didn't pay attention to them at all, he felt that it was more than enough for two ships against one, and his side.

"Brothers, warriors, our chance to take revenge has come, let's go directly and overturn the other side."

"As long as you capture their emperor, I will reward a city-state."

Romulus Augustus immediately looked at the crowd and spoke loudly.

He believed that it would be possible to win with such an absolute advantage, and that there was such a great reward that all the soldiers would fight for it.

Liu Wei was also engaged in a naval battle for the first time, but he was not worried, his iron lumps were also equipped with artillery, and he was not worried about dealing with this group of wooden ships.

"Kill me, for the glory of the Empire, for the survival of our Roman Empire."

Romulus Augustus immediately ordered.

At this point, the First World War that decided the Roman Empire finally began.
