Chapter 901 Reaction of the Roman Council

Looking at the figure of Li Jue going away, Zhuge Liang shook his head and said nothing, since he ordered free movement, then what Li Jue did was not out of the ordinary, let him go.

"Kong Ming, what shall we do next?"

Li Jue, Guo Si and others led the troops to leave, leaving only Liu Chan, Cao Ang and others leading the troops to wait for Zhuge Liang's next instructions.

"Let's go, I'll leave it to them here, let's go to the Euphrates River to set up, and wait for the Roman army to come!" Zhuge Liang chuckled.

Let these people smash the hard bones here, and they will go to ambush on the path of Rome's withdrawal first.

As for whether Rome will withdraw, Zhuge Liang has no doubts at all.

Calculating the time, Jigworth V, who is going south, will arrive almost there. Even if Rome can survive tonight, Rome will definitely not stand still.

And Zhuge Liang's purpose is to seize the ferry first, and they must not let Rome play another wave of garrison along the river. It's a trick.

Basically the same as what Zhuge Liang thought, after Ganassis stabilized the situation, he immediately realized that he was sticking to a dead end, and only an orderly withdrawal was the first book.

The Parthian army continued to emerge, and the defense line he temporarily organized could not last for too long, but at this level, Ganassis had no intention of supporting it.

He himself knew that the two rivers were basically undefendable, and he was stuck here just to delay time. Since there was no land available, he retreated before the Parthian troops were fully assembled.

"Cannes, tell them to retreat, and the Eagle Banner Legion will follow me!"

Ganassis resolutely chose to let the barbarian army go first, not because of his kindness, but because the barbarian army with no morale is completely unsuitable for breaking the rear. effect, and may trigger a larger collapse.

It is not once or twice that a large army fights, and the pursuit of the tail leads to a complete collapse.

After the breakup, the troops must use the elite.

"Where to withdraw?" Cannes, the head of the Citizens Army, asked.

"Retreat to the Euphrates River, where Camillo has already set up a defense line in advance. You will participate in the defense on the spot, and by the way, sign up for the young and strong manpower on the spot. After this battle, our manpower shortage will be even worse."

Ganassis calmly ordered to his subordinates, Ganassis hates to know that this is slow suicide, and Parthia will keep biting them, but considering the general direction, they must do so.

It has to be said that Ganassis' progress is rapid. If the full score of the army's combat effectiveness is [-] points, Ganassis' command can at least increase by a few points.

Ganassis kept adjusting the position of his army, and let the barbarian army evacuate first.

Then he even caught Omzada's mistake, and used the Fourth West Archer Legion to give Omzada a ruthless backhand, causing Omzada's legion to withdraw from the battle in an instant.

"Hehehe, I want to annex us too, I want to see if Parthia has such a good mouth!" Ganassis sneered and looked at the Parthian army that was constantly attacking the defense.

As long as the Eagle Banner Legions fight steadily, it is inevitable that the tragedy of Thirteen Roses will not happen. As long as they hold on for a while, they will be able to withdraw directly.

"Turajan, your cavalry grandfather is here!"

Just when Ganassis was strategizing, there was a loud sound of horseshoes. In Ganassis' eyes, a torrent of steel rushed towards them, and the Parthian army naturally vacated a direction to attack the opponent. .

"Retreat!" After seeing the torrent of steel in the distance, Ganassis gave the order to retreat without any hesitation, and directly began to retreat towards the predetermined retreat.

The Xiliang iron cavalry of the Han Dynasty, this is the information he has known for a long time, and he has witnessed the entanglement of the second Trajan River heavy cavalry before. He does not think that such a troop rushing over, the defense line he has set up will be safe and sound .

So he immediately gave the order to retreat. Rather than being forced to retreat, it would be easier to just retreat while the opponent was still far away and Parthia had reserved a place.

When Li Jue rushed over, Rome had already slipped away, which made Li Jue very upset. What he longed for was a passionate battle, and Rome actually withdrew so simply.

As for chasing, the short legs of the Xiliang cavalry are enough to catch up.

"Rome has already withdrawn?" Zhuge Liang was a little surprised. They had just started not long ago, why did Rome withdraw?

Although there is a speed-type legion talent combination blessed by him, but because the coverage area is too large, the effect of the blessing is limited, and it is not much faster than the Roman legion.

"It was Li Jue's army that directly forced Rome back!" Zhao Yun said helplessly.

Zhuge Liang was speechless. He knew that Li Jue and the others would not be allowed to mess around, but he forgot to consider this point.

However, Rome's quick withdrawal also made him think of something new. Since the other party withdrew quickly, it meant that he must have made preparations later.

Then the effect of the original plan is not very good, if this is the case, then directly adapt to local conditions.

"Prepare to line up on the spot. Since we don't have much time, let's bite a piece of meat off of them."

Rome's excellent response made his original plan stillborn, but Zhuge Liang's mind was like lightning, and he directly thought of a new implementation plan.

He greeted Fars Sassan when he came, and Fars Sassan will never stay, but will chase after him, not giving Rome a chance to breathe, and then occupy the Euphrates River in one fell swoop, and then take Rome Completely drive out of the Mesopotamia, and then counterattack the Roman mainland.

Zhuge Liang unfolded the eight formations on the spot. He planned to come to Boda. Since the strategic goal could not be achieved, he would weaken the opponent's effective strength.

"Fight well, this battle is up to you!"

After Zhuge Liang finished all the preparatory work, his face was exhausted, and Lu Su's face was even paler. Sorting out the cloud and energy of the entire army is not something that humans do at all.

In particular, Zhuge Liang's eight-array map still has complicated changes, that is, Lu Su's level is high enough, and an ordinary strategist may not be directly cheated.

Guan Ping and the others were excited and excited. After watching for so long, it was finally their turn to show their skills.

……

When Rome was retreating steadily, the envoys sent by Ganassis rushed back to the city of Rome and passed the news to the Roman Parliament.

"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible, do you know what you are going to say?" Roman Justice Papinian looked at the messenger in shock, almost thinking that his ears had heard it wrong.

The other Roman elders also had the same expression. To be honest, although Severus mentioned the threat of Parthia before, it was assumed that it would be decades later. They sent seven Eagle Banner Legions to Parthia. Tia is perfectly enough, but now tell them Rome is defeated.

"The Mesopotamia will be lost, the thirteenth will be destroyed by the legion, and the eagle flag will be taken away and chopped to pieces!" he repeated calmly in a bitter tone.

"How is this possible? As Caesar's personal guard, this legion is unimaginably tenacious. Even if our parliamentary guards take action, they will definitely not be able to wipe out Thirteen Roses, or even gain a complete upper hand. What's more, there are still six An eagle flag is on the side, what the hell happened!"

"That's the Thirteen Rose Legion, that's the Hero Legion!"

Pabinian said almost instantly the reason why the Thirteen Roses should not be completely wiped out.

"But, it's all gone! Believe it or not, the Thirteen Roses are gone!"

"Okay, stop arguing!" Penilance directly interrupted the argument between the two sides, and he turned to look at the messenger.

"It's a matter of great importance. We need to check your memory. You should have no objection!" Penirence said in a flat tone. During the days when Severus was away, he was in charge of hosting the Roman Council.

After Severus ascended the throne, he immediately led the three dukes to fight north without saying a word.

On the one hand, it is to consolidate the position, and on the other hand, it is also to disintegrate the prestige of the three dukes, and tie them firmly under his own hands, waiting for the dust to settle.

Ganassis' attack on Parthia was his move. When Ganassis becomes famous, he can also be honored as an emperor. At that time, the three dukes will no longer have the possibility of rebellion, and his glory will spread to the whole of Rome.

On the other hand, it is also for military training. Continuous small-scale wars are the most suitable for Rome. During the period of Roman civil strife, it is indeed a bit neglected.

Therefore, it is Penirence who presides over the work in the city of Rome, which is also Severus' greatest sincerity in trusting the other party.

And Severus didn't care about these, he only believed in the military power in his hands, as long as the three major dukes were disintegrated and the Roman military power was in his hands, then politics and parliament would be meaningless to him.

"I'll go north immediately tomorrow!"

After checking his memory, Penilance said without saying a word, and immediately said that he would take the first and third Eagle Banner Legion and the Roman Parliament Guard northward.

To be honest, after Penelance heard the overall situation, the biggest worry in his heart was not Parthia at all, but Great Britain.

It is still the biggest problem in Rome, the problem of barbarians. Most of the people led by Severus who went north are the Citizen Legion, and they are also Romans in the true sense.

Even if Severus is really recognized by the barbarians, Severus can't bet on whether the barbarians recognize him or Great Britain, so the most important thing is to first increase the strength of the Roman Citizen Legion.

This is also the reason why none of the real elites were transferred away. Severu wanted to sharpen the rookies and use veterans to overwhelm the formation. If the first and third top legions were really pulled up, how would the rookies grow.

But the situation is completely different now, and the troops in Severu's hands may have problems.

After the news of Parthia reached Great Britain, Penelance could figure out what would happen with his feet. Great Britain would inevitably be robbed by fire, and Severus' safety instantly became the biggest hidden danger.

If Severus died suddenly, then after Rome fell into civil strife again, it might be completely over if it was attacked from both sides.

Moreover, although Parthia is coming fiercely, Penelance is very clear that Parthia has insufficient stamina. This battle caught them by surprise by relying on stereotypes. After Rome sends more troops, it will soon be defeated. will be able to stabilize.

He knew Ganassis' ability well. Since the other party chose to delay for help, everything was not at its worst.

The boundless barbarian sea is destined to block Parthia near the mountains.

"Go and call out all the defenders of the empire, half of them go north with me, and the other half go to meet Parthia!" Penelance ordered in an orderly manner.

Wasn't it just being beaten by Parthia, what's the matter, just beat it back, the blood debt must be paid in blood.

Because of the existence of the Mediterranean Sea, Rome should not move troops to Parthia too quickly, which is also a natural advantage of the Mediterranean Sea.

The advantage of the Mediterranean is so great that it is almost one of the foundations supporting the Roman Empire.

If someone can hit the Mediterranean Sea, Rome will inevitably suffer a fatal blow, because troops can be dropped to any corner of Rome through the Mediterranean Sea.

In this case, let alone the victory or defeat, Rome will inevitably suffer heavy losses. Even if the enemy is repelled, what will be left is a mess full of holes.

However, Rome has never thought about this issue. After all, since Rome occupied the Mediterranean, except for civil strife, no one has thought about other people's occupation of the Mediterranean.

Just when everyone was discussing how to send troops and how to organize the manpower, the gate of the Roman Parliament was kicked open, and a large group of people rushed in.

Penilance smiled, that's why he chose to go north, as the deputy emperor of Rome, he knew a little more than others.

"I heard that the thirteen roses were completely wiped out, and the eagle emblem was taken away by Parthia?"

The leader Virgilio's face was ashen. As the head of the Tenth Legion, he was also one of the biggest forces in the Roman Parliament.

It's just that their Tenth Legion has been in ruins for many years, otherwise they wouldn't even come to see the Roman Council.

At that time, when Severus said that he wanted to fight out, all of them, the Tenth Legion, had the shadow of Caesar the Great, and Octavian also recognized Severus, so they directly voted for Severus at the Citizens Assembly. Lu.

This is also the last straw that overwhelms the three dukes.

To be honest, the tenth and thirteenth rose legions have nothing to do with each other. The former two legions may have been unilaterally like brothers, but up to now, they have no relationship for a long time.

After Octavian woke up, their Tenth Legion reluctantly regarded the No.13 Legion as their own. Although they were a coquettish bitch, they were indeed their own.

After all, Octavian was Caesar's nephew and the founder of the Roman Emperor, so they were more or less trying to save face.

"I demand the Tenth Legion to go to Parthia!" Virgilio shouted loudly.

Penelance nodded, that's what he was waiting for.
