Fu Qin starts with a plan

Chapter 624 The shocking battle shocked the audience!
Today's Great Qin, the country is a scene of prosperity.

But the situation abroad is extremely delicate.

There is a saying in the Land of China.

It is called the innocence of the common man, but the crime of conceived jade.

Even Zhao Kun never expected it.

In the eyes of some countries, Daqin has become the "everyman" who is pregnant with his crimes.

Let's not talk about Carthage's looting of Daqin talents.

Before Wang Li led the army to capture the city of Sibal, Zhao Kun ordered him to send troops to garrison Sibal, and he led the main force of the navy back to the country.

However, a few days ago, Wang Li sent news from Europe that there were frequent changes in Rome, and it seemed that they had other plans for the navy stationed in Sibal City.

Zhao Kun was extremely angry about this.

What he was angry about was not Wang Li's disobedience and failure to return.

After all, he had also commanded the army before, and he knew that he would be in a situation where he would not be able to accept military orders abroad.

He was angry at the arrogance of Rome.

At the end of the first year of II, the Second Punic War has come to an end.

At the beginning of the first year of II, the Carthaginian commander Hannibal and the Roman commander Scipio held peace negotiations, and the two met for the first time.

Hannibal has been in Europe for more than [-] years, with arrogance.

Although he did not take advantage on the battlefield, he faced the young Scipio during the negotiations with an extremely arrogant attitude.

The Romans insisted on accusing Carthage of violating the contract after the First Punic War, and the two sides broke up unhappy.

When the Qin army vowed to march west, Carthage and Rome started the Zama War.

Although for this battle, Hannibal specially mobilized hundreds of elephants from the African colonies and formed a powerful elephant army. In this battle, the Carthaginians once had the upper hand.

However, Carthage's ally, Numidia, rebelled against the battle, and Rome, under Scipio's formation, gave full play to the advantages of the cavalry.

In the end, in this crucial battle, the Carthaginians were completely defeated.

In addition, Hannibal sent people to Daqin, and the plan he formulated completely failed. Hannibal lost his last hole card, and the domestic nobles completely lost confidence in him.

It is said that the voice of surrender to Rome in Carthage is getting louder and louder.

After hundreds of years of war, the domestic people's livelihood is difficult.

At this time, Rome already regarded itself as a victor.

They were finally able to mobilize their strength to deal with the Great Qin Navy who took advantage of it and ran to Europe to take advantage of it.

At this point, there is no room for change.

Rome, which had just defeated Carthage, now has no children left.

These barbarians who have lived in Europe since ancient times have always been defiant in Europe.

Especially after defeating their old enemies on the battlefield, they have great confidence in their so-called republican system.

It is said that at this time, the Senate of Rome had reported that Scipio would lead his army eastward to establish a super-state across Asia and Europe.

In the eyes of the Romans, Scipio was only in his early thirties, the prime of life.

Taking advantage of Yu Yong from the previous battle, if we continue our efforts, we will be able to expand the territory of Rome to a jaw-dropping level.

The Romans were daydreaming, and Zhao Kun didn't care about it, nor did he want to.

But anyone with a discerning eye can see that if the Romans want to advance eastward, the biggest obstacle is the Great Qin, which is entrenched at the eastern end of the mainland.

And the Great Qin Navy drove straight in and captured Sibal, which was the best reason for the Romans to attack.

They don't care about the cause and effect of this matter.

War, after all, is compared to fists.

As for the reasons for war, one is enough, who cares about these?

Rome, which is in full swing to annex the territory of Carthage, has been greatly supplemented, and this is the time of high spirits.

Having tasted the sweetness of war, they don't mind continuing to use war to strengthen themselves.

However, for Daqin.

The arrogant Romans are completely out of their minds.

After Zhao Kun came to prominence, he can ask himself that he has never fought an unreasonable war.

He devoted himself to the development of people's livelihood.

Under his training, Daqin's strength also developed rapidly.

Today's Great Qin has already stood at the top of all the countries in the world.

Even Daqin does not fight unjust wars, nor does it bully the weak.

Why are you Rome?
And still treat Daqin like a soft persimmon?

This feeling of being regarded as an opponent by a weak chicken made Zhao Kun extremely unhappy.

Therefore, after receiving Wang Li's news, he immediately replied.

The Great Qin Navy, with its entire army stationed on the West Bar Peninsula, could act arbitrarily if there was a conflict with Rome.

At the same time, Zhao Kun ordered the Western Expeditionary Army, which was fighting in the Western Regions, to penetrate the Kingdom of Bendu as quickly as possible, and Chen Bing to the east of Rome.

If they wanted to fight, they would fight hard. For decades after that, the Romans would tremble when they heard the name Daqin.

but.

Speaking of Rome's troubles, although Daqin is not afraid, as a passive responder, the influence on Daqin is actually still great.

There are 27 Western Expeditionary Forces, plus the [-] Zhenyuan Army Commanded by Zhang Han, and the [-] Qin Navy stationed on the West Bar Peninsula.

A total of 35 troops have traveled thousands of miles, and the food and supplies alone are an extremely terrifying number.

Relying on the small countries in the Western Regions, even if they are squeezed dry, they cannot bear such a heavy burden.

This war is destined to slow down the development of Daqin.

Thinking of this, how could Zhao Kun not be angry?
At this time, outside the Qilin Hall, there was a sudden sound of horseshoes.

All the courtiers looked up and looked out.

It is a basic rule that horses are not allowed to ride in the palace.

However, there are special cases.

Whenever it appears, something big must happen.

Not long after, a row of heavily armed soldiers rushed in.

"Your Majesty, the Western Expeditionary Army sent back an urgent report that the vanguard Li Xin has conquered the city of Kaer Morhen, the capital, and wiped out 60 of our troops, with less than [-] casualties!"

boom!
Like a stone being thrown into the lake, the peace in the hall was instantly broken.

Some courtiers were too shocked to speak, while others whispered to each other.

Daqin's army is powerful, and they never doubted that they were all pressed to the ground and exploded with hammers.

In siege battles, 60 enemies can be wiped out, and less than [-] self-damaged.

Even in their eyes, it is almost a mythical record.

Calm down, the first thought of these people is not happiness, but worry.

Ever since the Great Qin unified China, there has not been such a large-scale war like this Western Expedition for more than 20 years.

The record was so miraculous that everyone felt that the report was wrong, or that the Western Expeditionary Army lied about their military achievements.

Everyone looked up at Zhao Kun, but found that there was no anger on Zhao Kun's face.

Zhao Kun was also very surprised by Li Xin's record.

However, he never thought that Li Xin dared to lie about his military achievements.

In the final analysis, Li Xin is a perfectionist and has too high demands on himself, which has led to his downfall these years.

Zhao Kun might believe that others lied about their military achievements.

Li Xin, absolutely impossible.

What's more, the [-] iron eagle swordsmen of the Black Ice Terrace who accompanied the army were not just soldiers.

It is impossible for Li Xin to hide it from them.

"What's the specific battle situation?" Zhao Kun asked in a deep voice.

The soldier kneeling in the temple described the battle in detail, letting everyone know the details of the battle of Kaer Morhen.

Although the siege battle lasted less than a day, there were too many details in it.

These soldiers are all members of the Black Ice Terrace in Li Xin's army. According to their description, all the details of that battle, no matter how big or small, were not omitted.

By the time they finished speaking, an hour had passed.

At this time, there were many more people in the hall.

When the soldiers entered the city in the early morning, the news of the great victory of the Western Expeditionary Army had already caused a storm in the city.

The veterans of the Qin Dynasty who were still in Xianyang couldn't wait to enter the palace, wanting to hear the details of the war.

On the high platform, next to Zhao Kun's dragon chair, Emperor Shi Huang sat on a large chair wearing a robe casually.

Below the steps, in front of the officials, there is another row of chairs.

Ma Xing, Meng Tian, ​​Meng Yi and other important officials of the old dynasty are impressively listed.

The westward expedition of the army was the first time that Zhao Kun used troops since he succeeded to the throne.

These veterans are extremely assured of Zhao Kun's ability to govern the country.

Even Zhao Kun leading the army himself is invincible.

However, sitting on the throne of the emperor, launching a war, and leading troops to fight in person are completely different.

When Zhao Kun used Li Xin at the beginning, it was considered to be against all opinions.

Many of the veterans in the military were opposed to Li Xin's expedition.

In the first battle of the Western Expeditionary Army, they fought so beautifully that those people naturally stopped talking.

Even, many people are staring at the stars, wishing to replace Li Xin.

It was really cool to fight this battle!
In fact, to put it bluntly, Li Xin did not play a very important role in this battle.

The whole process is a long-range attack, kerosene bombs, gunpowder bombs to sweep the floor, and when the kill is almost done, just lead the army into the city to clean the battlefield.

In one day, 60 people were killed!

Even if 60 pigs are killed, it may not be so easy.

Several veterans headed by Meng Tian couldn't wait to argue.

Some people said that Li Xin's combat achievements were all picked up. With these weapons, not to mention 8 people attacking the city, even if it is 7000 people, he can beat it all at once.

Some people are very interested in these weapons newly developed by the Academy of Science and Technology.

More people are worried that the military equipment is too powerful, and the art of war is useless.

"Black Ice Platform, what's your opinion on this battle?"

Zhao Kun turned to look at Jiang Chao who was standing aside, and asked with a smile.

Jiang Chao went out to salute, and then said: "The Black Ice Terrace has analyzed various elements of this battle, and finally concluded that our Daqin can be said to have taken advantage of the right time and place for this battle!"

After all these years by Zhao Kun's side, Jiang Chao certainly knew what Zhao Kun meant.

In this battle, the Academy of Science and Technology helped with all their strength, and the city of Kaer Morhen was littered with corpses.

But why didn't it hit the hearts of the generals like Daqin with a heavy blow?
If the weapon is too powerful, then the role of the commander will be infinitely reduced.

This is the old generals, absolutely unbearable!

Jiang Chao also told the truth.

The analysis of Heibingtai has the same meaning as what Gongshu Qin said to Li Xin.

The reason why the new weapons of the Academy of Science and Technology were able to achieve such a miraculous record in the first battle is indeed the right time and place.

Moreover, it is an indisputable fact that with the advent of new weapons, the enemy has no way to deal with them and can only be beaten passively.

The implication of Jiang Chao's words is naturally that such a record cannot be replicated even by Daqin.

After discussing for a while, it was decided that the chairman of the conference, Chen Ping, would come out.

"Report to Your Majesty, General Wang Li came from Europe."

Since the news from Europe came back, the main topic of the resolution meeting in the past few days is to deal with the already extremely inflated Rome.

The big policy is already in place.

Zhao Kun said that he was not used to Rome, so he could only touch him.

But how to do it is extremely complicated.

Although I don't want to drag down the great situation in China today.

But if there is a country that does not open its eyes and dares to challenge the majesty of the Great Qin, no one will think that this battle should not be fought!
But as long as there is a war, there will be various complicated problems.

The biggest trouble is how to deal with the logistics.

In fact, the combat power of the army is never the most worrying thing about the expedition of Laoshi.

Sure enough, just after Chen Ping finished speaking, a veteran asked a question.

"The army is going on an expedition, has the decision meeting thought about the supply of food and grass, how to solve it?"

Chen Ping smiled and was about to speak.

Suddenly, a loud and slightly trembling voice sounded in the hall.

"Chen, I have something to play!"

All the ministers followed the prestige, and saw an old man with a strange appearance sitting kneeling among the ministers.

Xiwan Jun Ziwidow?
What is he doing jumping out at this time!
The imperial court of Daqin was in a state of chaos because of the achievements of the Western Expeditionary Army.

The countries in the Western Regions were even more frightened.

In the Dawan Palace, the King of Dawan didn't sleep all night.

He, who always pays attention to his appearance, now has an unshaven beard, wearing only a loose silk underwear, walking around on the carpet with bare feet.

Two months ago, Daqin sent 27 troops to march west.

A month ago, the [-] vanguard troops of Daqin stayed in Dawan for a day, and then rushed to the Kingdom of Bendu.

The Western Expeditionary Army was able to capture Kaer Morhen, and Ling Da had no doubts about it.

However, in his prediction, it would take ten and a half months to get any news.

Unexpectedly, within half a month, news came from the front.

The Qin army attacked the city in one day, killing 60 enemies, and less than [-] of them themselves.

Even though he believed in and even worshiped Great Qin, Ling Da was still extremely shocked when faced with such a mythical record.

For half a month, the royal families of the Western Regions have almost gone crazy!
The battle was imminent, and the city of Kaer Morhen within a hundred miles was cleared.

They didn't dare to send people to search for news near the battlefield.

No one can imagine how Qin Jun did it.

At first, many people doubted the authenticity of this record.

After all, it is too scary!
But in the past half month, the news sent back through various channels has made them extremely crazy.

Countless evidence shows that this crushing battle, which is not enough to describe, really happened!

Everyone is crazy!
Before, the great Qin expedition to the west forced the countries in the western regions to share the logistics and supplies, which caused dissatisfaction among many countries.

But after the first battle, no one dared to speak out.

In the past few years, as the Silk Road has become more and more smooth, the ties between the countries in the Western Regions and the Great Qin have become closer and closer.

Everyone thinks that they know Daqin very well.

However, Da Qin's performance broke through the limit of their own imagination time and time again.

In the Western Regions before, it was not that Daqin had never used force to solve problems.

Before the opening of the Silk Road, the envoys of Great Qin saw Qin merchants being bullied in Loulan and reported to the court. Zhao Kun immediately issued an order to destroy Loulan and kill all Loulan people.

This action shocked all the countries in the Western Regions, and the battle of the Bendu Kingdom was not just a simple shock, it was simply appalling! !
