In the imperial study, Sun Quan walked out from behind the imperial case, pacing back and forth in front of the hall, his face was a little gloomy, and his brows were furrowed into a Sichuan character. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

He wasn't angry about the defeat.

As the so-called battlefield confrontation, success or failure is inevitable, there is no forever undefeated army, one or two defeats for the Great Wu Dynasty to eat, even if the Western Expeditionary Army is annihilated, for today's Great Wu, it is only a small injury, not a loss of vitality.

Sun Quan was saddened by his strangeness to the Roman Empire.

Before, he thought too simply, the Wu army was strong, as long as the army was opened, it could drive straight in, and it would be able to destroy Rome, conquer the entire West, unify the world, and achieve a peerless hegemony that has never been seen before or since.

But how can it be so easy?

The Roman Empire can stand in the whole West, with a longer history than the two Han Dynasty, both in terms of economic heritage and military combat effectiveness.

The most important thing is not to understand.

Although the Great Wu has been infiltrating Rome, in fact, the whole of the Great Wu Dynasty, including Sun Quan, does not know much about the system and army of the Roman Empire, and does not have much contact.

And it was still a defeat.

What are the famous generals in the Roman army, and who are the wise men, how many legions, how many soldiers, and how many combat effectiveness, even if it is the record of the brocade guard.

On the battlefield, it is important to know oneself and know one's opponent in order to win all battles.

But the current Roman Empire is too strange to the Great Wu Dynasty.

A tough opponent Sun Quan is not afraid, Sun Quan is afraid of a mysterious and unpredictable opponent.

At present, Sun Quan only knows that the emperor of the Roman Empire, Severus, is not a simple hero, a military background, and a powerful emperor.

However, it is too vague what kind of generals and strategists Severus has under his command.

It's not going to go on like this.

"Bonghyo!" Sun Quan stopped, raised his head, looked at Guo Jia on the left, and snorted.

"Your Majesty!" Guo Jia hurriedly stood up.

He and Xu Shu are the chief historian and chief secretary of the imperial study, and they are also Sun Quan's staff advisers, and their office is in the imperial study, and they have been with Sun Quan for many years to deal with government affairs.

"Pass on Li Ru!"

"Yes!"

Guo Jia nodded and walked out, and in less than an hour, he passed Li Rutong into the imperial study.

"Li Ru to see Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live!"

Li Ru followed Guo Jia and walked in, originally a little confused, but after walking in, he glanced at Tai Shici and Zhou Tai, who were standing tremblingly in front of the hall, and suddenly had a bottom in his heart, and hurriedly saluted Sun Quan.

"Li Ru, I want to know, how far has your Jinyi Guard's infiltration of the Roman Empire been achieved?" Sun Quan looked at Li Ru and asked straight to the point.

"The Roman Empire?"

When Li Ru heard this, he pondered it in his heart for a while, and then said slowly: "Your Majesty, because we are the Central Plains and the Roman resting people, there is a big gap in terms of appearance, so in fact, the penetration of Jinyi Wei into the Roman Empire is not very smooth, we can only use the Kushan and the Sabbatarians, and explore the news of the Roman Empire from the side, we don't know much, to the current location, we don't even know the current territory of the Roman Empire, how many soldiers and horses, how many sailors, how many cavalry, how many foot soldiers, those are famous generals... … It's all blank! ”

"In this way, for Rome, you Jinyi guards don't know anything!"

Sun Quan frowned, and his face was a little unhappy.

"Your Majesty, some time ago, the focus of Jinyiwei has been on dealing with Cao Wei, in addition to the fact that the territory of the Roman Empire is far away from our Central Plains, we have sent people and given not many resources, and the progress in this area is naturally not very large, the most important point is that we and the Romans do not understand the language, unable to communicate, even if we want to talk to each other, it is even more difficult, if you want to find out the news, it is even more difficult!"

Li Ru said with some bitterness.

Against the Roman Empire, it was not against the princes of the Central Plains, and the language gap between the Central Plains and the Romans was a deep stream that was difficult to cross.

Although the language of the Roman Empire has begun to be studied in China, it is not easy to conquer it.

"That's it!"

Sun Quan waved his hand, he somewhat understood Li Ru's difficulties in his heart, it was a thousand times more difficult to infiltrate Rome than to infiltrate the princes of the Central Plains, but if you don't force this old yin man, he will be the most lazy: "Li Ru, don't complain to me, I don't plan to punish you Jinyiwei, but from now on, Jinyiwei must put all the focus on the Roman Empire, I don't want him to become a blind man and a deaf man when the main army of our Great Wu rushes to the battlefield in the Western Regions, you know?" ”

"Yes!"

Li Ru hurriedly nodded like a chicken pecking rice to express the holy will of comprehension, his eyes rolled, looking at Tai Shi Ci and Zhou Tai, a plan came to his heart.

"General Taishi, I heard that you have a lot of Roman prisoners, right?"

Li Ru suddenly stepped forward and asked in a low voice beside Tai Shici.

"Yes!" Hearing this, Tai Shi Ci nodded: "After several battles, although we were defeated, we also captured a lot of Roman soldiers, these people are very troublesome, they can't be collected, they can't be released, they can only be used to build roads and repair cities, are you useful?" ”

"It works!"

Li Ru hurriedly said: "I'll go to your house in person in the evening to talk about it!" ”

With that, he retired from the Imperial Study, seizing the time to prepare for the planned deployment of the Roman Empire's infiltration.

In the imperial study, there was some quietness.

Tai Shi Ci and Zhou Tai still behaved a little restrained in the face of this uncertain Sun Quan.

After Sun Quan asked Li Ru to retreat, he pondered for a long time before he spoke: "This battle is defeated, I will not pursue it, defeat is defeat after all, it seems that we were in too much hurry before, the Roman Empire, we have to slow down, but the west cannot be calm all the time, the Rest Empire, we have to eat it first, we can't let Rome eat the rest of the Empire, we use the territory of the Sabbath Empire as a bridgehead to defend us, we must eat the Sabbath Empire before the main force attacks the Roman Empire, the position of the Sabbath Empire is too important, I don't want the main force of the Wu army to march west to Rome, and there is a knife stuck in the back of my waist, so we can't advance or retreat! ”

"Your Majesty, now the vitality of our Western Expeditionary Corps has been greatly damaged, most of the combat effectiveness of the Sea Eagle Legion is on the sea, and the landing operation will be too damaging, which is not conducive to naval operations, and the Rest Empire is now leaning on the Roman Empire, the main force will inevitably withdraw from the Mesopotamia region to the northeast and southeast in the east, and defend the two legions of our army, there is a Roman army in the Mesorama Damaea region, once we have the right to attack and rest, the Roman army will inevitably move, so that we will be attacked before and after!"

Xu Shu put down the pen in his hand, suddenly spoke, and said: "It's really irrational to attack the Rest Empire at this time!" ”

"But I can't eat this breath, there has always been only us Great Wu Yin people, but now our Wu army has been given a handful of Yin by the Sabbath Army, I still want to take back this breath, Ziyi, what do you think?"

Sun Quan looked at Tai Shici.

"Your Majesty, what Xu Changshi said is not bad, this battle is not easy to fight!"

Tai Shi Ci nodded, but there was a touch of anger in the depths of his eyes: "But it's not that we can't fight, we want to take the rest, it's not impossible, although my Western Expeditionary Legion is greatly injured, but the fundamental combat effectiveness is still there, and we can draw young and strong from the cities of Guishan and the Western Regions to replenish the strength of the legion, if there is enough food, grass and weapons and armor, we can recover our combat effectiveness in three months, and then if the Sea Eagle Legion can enter Mesopotamia from the sea, there is no need to fight with the Roman army, As long as we hold them, once the Roman army is in Mesopotamia, we can capture the rest, and the rest of the soldiers and horses have been consumed by us and Rome in the previous battles, more than fifty percent, I am sure that we can destroy the rest! ”

The battle in the land of Mesopotamia was a relatively miserable defeat for his Taishici, and he also wanted to get back a fortune from the Rest Empire.

"Youping, what about you?"

When Sun Quan heard this, he thought about it, looked at Zhou Youping, and asked, "Are you confident?" ”

"If it is only to contain the Roman army, the Sea Eagle Legion should be able to contain the Roman army from a long-range attack from the sea, suppress them in the Mesopotamia region, and prevent them from entering the Resting Empire!"

Zhou Taidao.

He also wanted to fight in his heart, and the defeat of the Western Expeditionary Legion was also the shame of his Sea Eagle Legion, both of which were defeats of the Western Expedition.

"Yuan Zhi, Feng Xiao, do you think this battle can be fought?" Sun Quan was a little undecided, he wanted to fight impulsively, and he didn't want to fight in terms of calm command, but the strong morale of Tai Shici and Zhou Tai was not easy to refute.

"Think about it!"

"If the Western Expeditionary Corps can replenish enough combat effectiveness, this battle has never been impossible to fight!"

The two thought about it for a while before they each said a word.

"The king of the Kushan Empire who took in the Rest Empire has already made an enmity with us, and now they have rebelled and stabbed us in the back!"

Sun Quan's amber eyes had a cold light flickering, and said: "Let us suffer such a big loss, if we don't get back a little bit of color, we can't say it!" ”

"Your Majesty Xie agrees, I will never let Your Majesty down in this battle!"

Tai Shi Ci and Zhou Tai showed a grim smile.

"Don't rejoice too soon!"

Sun Quan shook his head, he thought about it carefully, and he still had to slow down: "It's okay to fight, but you must wait until the military aircraft department's rectification of the Western Expeditionary Corps and the Sea Eagle Legion is completed, and you can take the initiative to start a war, and within this year, no matter your success or failure, the main force of the Central Plains will not send troops to reinforce you, because the current main force of the Central Plains is not suitable to pull out the camp, and it takes time to rest, but I can reinforce a few of your fierce generals and strategists!" ”

"Titan?"

"Strategist?"

When the two of them heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up.

"Zhuge Liang is your old friend, I gave him to you, Cao Wei has been destroyed, several war zones aimed at Cao Wei have also been withdrawn, he, the commander of the third war zone, is also idle, with him personally in the layout to deal with Rome, I will feel at ease, other strategists, I can support you, only Chen Gong, who has always wanted to fight and make meritorious contributions!"

Sun Quan thought about it in his heart, although the war in the Central Plains is over, the Central Plains is actually not stable, although there are many peak strategists in the General Staff, but they have their own tasks, and there are only one or two who can be squeezed out.

"Zhao Yun, Pan Feng, if they want to restart the use, the Central Plains is impossible, or rely on the Western Expedition to fight, I can let them enter the Western Regions in advance to help in the war, and there is another one, Sun Bofu can also be temporarily dispatched to you to help, the Central Plains is calm, he can't settle down, it's a good thing to let him go to the Western Regions to toss and toss!"

"Now that the soldiers and horses are reorganized, all the soldiers of the legion are resting, and those generals with military positions, I can't pull them out, and the help I can give you is really limited!"

Sun Quan said a little helplessly: "The battle for rest, whether to fight or not, it still depends on your own considerations, as for logistics, the previous cabinet gave you reinforcements with food and taxes from Australia, and it has not been taken back, you can take advantage of the cabinet's failure to react this year, and get the logistics of the big war from Australia!" ”

"Thank you for your kindness!"

When Tai Shici and Zhou Tai heard this, they immediately showed a smile.

Sun Quan had thought enough about them.

It is certain that the Central Plains will not transfer troops to the Western Regions, after all, now that the Central Plains has just finished a decisive battle, the main forces of several legions of the Wu army will definitely have to cultivate for a period of time, but Sun Quan can transfer Zhao Yun, Pan Feng, Sun Ce, as well as Zhuge Liang and Chen Gong, these generals and strategists are transferred to the west, which is enough to be comparable to 100,000 main forces.
