Chapter 1129: Gradual Invasion
Thanks to the old bird, it is a monthly ticket rewarded by my son-in-law!
However, after a period of time, he did not see the Wei army, but heard the news of the return of the Fifth Army of the Wei Army to the hidden detectives in the Western Regions. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The Jin government and the opposition breathed a sigh of relief when they ascended up and down, and then Empress Silan ordered the reorganization of the various armies, and at the same time rebuilt the various legions that had been completely destroyed in the previous battle, and ordered the local conscription of laborers to build defensive fortresses at several key points!
At the same time, Empress Slan also sent her right-hand men to Rome.
When the envoy of the Jin people had a secret meeting with the Roman Emperor Caracalla in Rome, the relevant information had been fed back to Cao Cao's desk, which shows the terrible intelligence power of the Great Wei Empire!
At the same time, most of the envoys of the Great Wei Empire had already reached their respective destinations.
Lendini, which was later known as London, was the seat of the governor of England, and was currently one of the largest and most luxurious cities in the entire British Isles, but it was far from being comparable with Rome and Chang'an, with a population of nearly 10,000 people, which was equivalent to a county town in the Great Wei Empire, but the city wall was similar, six meters high, all made of huge stones, and protected the entire city.
"Lord Governor, Wei, the envoy of the Wei Empire asks to see!" An officer rushed into the lobby of the administrative office and hurriedly reported on it.
Everyone who was deliberating couldn't help but be stunned.
The people who were discussing in the hall of the Governor's Office of England could not help but be stunned when they heard the officer's report.
A burly man in leather armor looked suspicious and said, "It can't be fake again!" There have been two batches of people this year! These bastards want to cheat money in such a way! ”
This general's name is Quaid, one of the most relied on generals under the Governor of England Alayang Ying, only in his thirties, extremely brave, once in the battle against the Northern Soviet barbarians, more than a dozen warriors in a row, intimidating the enemy.
The northern barbarians here do not refer to the northern barbarians of continental Europe, but to the inhabitants of the island of Ireland and the northern part of England in the British Isles.
At this time they were called the Sibernians, which later became the Irish. These Sibernians were skilled in mountain warfare and had a long confrontation with the Roman Empire on the island of Ireland, where the Sibernians, the Governor of England, and the Roman Empire were currently wrestling with each other.
Governor Alayan frowned and asked the officer, "How many people are there on the other side?" ”
"A dozen! It's not like we look like it! ”
Everyone looked at each other in surprise.
Alayang said: "I heard that the people of the Eastern Empire are very different from us! ”
To the officer, he said, "Bring them in!" ”
The officer said yes and withdrew.
"Your Excellency the Governor, you don't really believe that any Wei people can get here, do you?" The one who questioned it was Arayang's Chancellor of the Exchequer, Wolfe.
Although this Wolf is in charge of financial affairs, his image does not look like a person in charge of internal affairs at all, but like a military general who leads troops in battle.
Alayang smiled: "It's okay to see it!" ”
When the officer led the two people into the hall of the administrative station, everyone couldn't help but be stunned, because the appearance and characteristics of the two people in front of them were completely different from them.
"Who are the two?" Alayan asked, speaking Roman.
The retinue-like person addressed another person in Chinese: "The other party asks us about our identity? ”
"Tell him that we are the messengers of Great Wei!" The messenger said and gave him the golden sword and the letter of state!
The attendant replied, repeated it to Alayang in Roman, and then took out the letter of state and presented it to the other party.
Alayang carefully looked at the national letter written in Roman and the delicate and domineering golden sword, and immediately determined the identity of the other party, quickly got up and came to the two of them, and saluted respectfully, "Alayang, the governor of England, greets the envoy of the Great Wei Empire!" ”
Seeing this, the surrounding subordinates were stunned for a moment, and then got up and saluted one after another, don't doubt why they are so respectful! This world is originally respected by the strong, and the current situation in Alayang is not optimistic, and foreign aid is urgently needed!
"Your Excellency the Governor doesn't have to be polite! On behalf of His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Wei Empire, I would like to greet Your Excellency! The messenger bowed.
Alayang thanked him for his sleep. Please take a seat with the envoy of Great Wei.
They each sat down, and the envoy of Great Wei said straight to the point: "I am here to form an alliance with Your Excellency!" However, before that, I can tell you more about your strength! ”
After many years of dealing with Westerners, Wei knew that it was best to talk to them straightforwardly, and beating around the bush would only make the other party confused.
Alayang didn't feel anything wrong with the words of the Great Wei envoy, and he thought that it was natural for the other party to have such a request.
Alayang hesitated for a moment and replied, "Since the Great Wei envoy asked, I will tell the truth!" We have 150,000 troops in the whole of England, of which 50,000 are elite! ”
The Great Wei envoy smiled and glanced at Alayang: "With all due respect! According to our intelligence, your army is no more than 100,000! Otherwise, the Roman army on the other side of the sea would not have been only 60,000 troops! ”
Alayang smiled a little embarrassedly, "Not bad! Our army really only has 100,000! In fact, it is less than 100,000, and the total strength is only more than 96,000! Among them, there are only 30,000 elite! ”
The Great Wei envoy nodded, and asked thoughtfully, "I wonder what your relationship with the Siberians is now?" ”
Alayang said: "There is a temporary truce, but they may provoke a war at any time!" Honestly, I don't want to be their enemy right now! ”
The Great Wei envoy asked, "Is it possible for you to form an alliance with them?" ”
Alayang shook his head without thinking about it and said, "Impossible! They see us as aggressors, how can they ally with us! There were signs of an alliance with the Romans, because the Romans said they would help them regain their lost territory! ”
The Great Wei envoy frowned.
Alayang asked tentatively, "Your Excellency, I wonder if the Great Wei Empire is willing to provide us with catapults?" ”
The Great Wei envoy said: "Actually, His Majesty the Emperor also has this plan!" It's just that we can't bring such huge equipment as catapults to you! ”
Alayang nodded in frustration.
"However, we have a way to get you to have a catapult!" The envoy of the Great Wei is unfathomable.
Alayang's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he said urgently: "As long as I can have a catapult, I can agree to any request of the Great Wei Empire!" "This Governor of England is very interesting!
The Great Wei envoy smiled and said, "We don't need anything, we just need to be able to have complete freedom to do business under the Governor's rule!" ”
Alayang and his subordinates couldn't help but be stunned, they didn't expect the other party's request to be so simple, but is this request really simple? (To be continued.) )
