Chapter 2048 Kill the middleman!!

...

If Usnafaso didn't know that there was no problem with his command ability, he might have really doubted his life. But fortunately, he was able to get out of the situation on his own.

Faced with such words, Ganasis did not say much. After all, the failure was real and the final result was visible to the naked eye.

Their retreat allowed the Parthian Empire to enter another unprecedented posture, freeing it from some mental repression and thus becoming stronger.

However, this kind of strengthening cannot be reflected in a short period of time, so it has no effect on Ganashishi and others.

What if it's a little more expensive? As long as we can get the goods here, that's fine.

If you really cannot bear this price, then just lead your soldiers over to give them a beating. There is nothing that cannot be solved by force. If there is, then increase the output of force!
When it comes to dealing with the Parthian Empire, Ganassis was very experienced, extremely experienced. He was one of the most experienced people in the entire Roman Empire.

After years of begging for money, he almost treated the Parthian Empire as his own home. He could enter and exit the Empire smoothly, as if he was in an empty city. At least it was like this until last year.

"What is the Duke going to do?" Usnafaso naturally saw the unhappiness in Ganasis's heart, so he raised his own question.

"Of course I will fight back. Do you think I'm afraid of him?" Ganasis spoke without even thinking, showing his stubbornness.

Of course, the Roman Empire was really strong, stubborn enough to smash most obstacles.

"But in the current situation, if we go to war, won't it involve too many people?" Usnafaso said with embarrassment as he recalled the caravans that had come in and out during this period.

Under normal circumstances, the silk shipped to the Roman Empire only lasts for a few months each year. After that, you basically have to wait until the next year.

During these free days, there was no need to worry about affecting the caravans on the road, nor would there be any need to worry about silk being unable to flow into the Roman Empire due to war.

But in the current situation, there is no sign of the merchant teams stopping. In other words, once the war starts, the opportunity for silk to enter the Roman Empire will inevitably be wasted.

"It's okay. It's just a matter of waiting a little longer. I can afford to wait. What's more, I can take advantage of this period of time to gather more troops. By then, even if Parthia has support from the Han Empire, we will be able to repel the enemy..." Ganasis said confidently.

The Han Empire was very strong, and they were not weak either. The cavalry displayed by the Han Empire was just a problem that could be solved by adding a few more guards. Can this be called a problem?
That's right, because Li Jue and others did not activate their legion talents and did not engage in battle for a long time, Ganasis misjudged Li Jue and others.

After all, in Ganasis's view, the Western Liang Iron Cavalry led by Li Jue and others was essentially one of the heavy cavalry.

A spear-type heavy cavalry with no movement speed and no heavy armor, except for its seemingly good defense, is most likely an elite cavalry.

However, the momentum displayed by the other party, and their calm attitude in the face of their momentum, made Ganasis want to classify them as elite guards, but out of caution, he still ranked them at the level of elite parliamentarians, and used this as a basis for thinking and precaution. "Is it possible that so much silk entered our country because we fought with the Han Empire?" Thinking of the differences between now and before, Usnafaso said with some speculation.

Hearing this, Ganasis frowned slightly, as if thinking about something.

"What you mean is that not only do we recognize the military power of the Han Empire, but the Han Empire also recognizes ours, so after understanding what we need, it increases the output of this kind of goods?" Ganasis thought for a while, gave a guess and direction, and looked at Usnafaso cautiously.

"It's not impossible. After all, all our previous understanding and communication with the Han Empire had to be transferred through Parthia. Given the relationship between us and Parthia, it would be normal if any accidents really happened..." Usnafaso said, shaking his head.

In any case, there must be a pitfall. For the Roman Empire, the Parthenon Empire was not a friendly neighbor. The two sides had been fighting for hundreds of years, and the hatred between them was so deep that it was no exaggeration to say that there was a blood feud.

In this situation, they actually shipped over the things they needed most. Even though the price was relatively high, it was within their acceptable range. This situation was abnormal no matter how you looked at it.

If we surrender to them, it will indeed lead to more silk shipments, but the price will not rise instead of fall. Judging from this aspect, it is impossible to surrender.

The two sides have been fighting for hundreds of years, and Padiya has been beaten by them for decades. If he wanted to surrender, he would have surrendered long ago. Why wait until now and use such a tactful way?

He wouldn't believe it if I told anyone else, let alone others.

"Yes, there are indeed problems in the connection between us and the Han Empire, which prevents things like silk from entering our country on a large scale. But what if we can contact the Han Empire directly?" Ganasis' eyes flashed with a gleam, and his brain, working at high speed, began to think about the corresponding strategic direction.

Those who know businessmen know that what they do is buy at low prices and sell at high prices, and they simply transport goods from one place to another for sale.

In this process, the more people contacted, the more profits are distributed, which ultimately leads to high selling prices.

But if we eliminate the middlemen and enable direct communication between customers and manufacturers, even if the logistics costs are included, the final price will drop a lot.

Not only do customers achieve lower prices, manufacturers also realize higher profits, and logistics also increases corresponding transportation benefits. Why not do it?

The most important thing is that the Han Empire is strong enough and far enough away from them, which means that there is no basis for direct conflict between the two countries. Using this as a framework, it may not be impossible for the two countries to come together, completely eliminate the Parthian Empire as a middleman, and achieve shared benefits.

However, the connection between the Han Empire is indeed a difficulty that needs to be resolved at present.

"Contact the Han Empire?!" Usnafaso expressed his incomprehension. What was this operation?
Is silk still a problem of the Han Empire?
