Daqin: Reign in the world

In the end, Brutus still asked Zhao Tuo that sentence.

“Can I hire an army from Daqin to fight in northern Europa?”

Zhao Tuo seriously considered Brutus’s suggestion.

If Rome could provide food, it would not be impossible.

It’s just that such a battle is not enough for Daqin. It’s not worth the labor yet.

In the end, Zhao Tuo gave Brutus an answer.

“Lao Bu, if the Senate promises to supply food to the Qin army and pay a military expense, I can consider sending troops.”

Hearing Zhao Tuo’s promise, Brutus was very excited.

Excitedly, he said, “Food is no problem.” It’s just that how much can you send troops? And how much military spending is needed? ”

Zhao Tuo stretched out a slap.

“I will send out 5,000 mounted cavalry and collect 2,000 gold coins!”

This gold coin, which refers to the Roman gold coin, is only one-fifth worth compared to the Daqin gold coin.

But even so, Brutus frowned.

With so few people and so much money, it’s just a lion’s mouth!

But now, Brutus is asking for Zhao Tuo, and he can’t be impatient and negotiate with him.

“Zhao, you send more troops, the Celts are a lot of people. And the price of 2000 gold coins is too high. ”

Rome was ostensibly prosperous, but in fact it was only the nobles who were rich.

2,000 gold coins, that is, a thousand taels of gold. That’s not a small number anymore.

Zhao Tuo shook his head.

“Lao Bu, I take you as a friend, and I quote you for a real price. Armored cavalry, I’m afraid you haven’t seen it yet, right? The combat power is far from being comparable to my Golden Eagle Battalion! ”

This startled Brutus.

The combat power of the Golden Eagle Battalion, in Brutus’s eyes, is already unparalleled in the world.

Does Daqin have more powerful combat power than the Golden Eagle Battalion?

Zhao Tuo’s words are moisture, and he used it to fool Brutus. In fact, the current equipment of the Golden Eagle Battalion belongs to light horses.

If the light cavalry is directly opposed to the armored cavalry, the Golden Eagle Battalion is certainly not an opponent.

But fighting a war is not a silly hard touch. The soldiers of the Golden Eagle Battalion are all selected from a hundred miles. If they were heavily armed, they would be better than ordinary armored cavalry.

Brutus probably estimated it in his mind.

The combat strength of 5,000 Qin soldiers is enough to fight an ordinary battle in Europa.

The battle in Europa, counting all the miscellaneous, can have 60,000 people, even if the scale is unprecedentedly large.

Daqin’s 5,000 elites are enough to fight a war of any scale.

The Celtics claimed to have nearly three million. But it was all scattered sand, and each tribe fought separately.

If used well, the role that these 5,000 people can play may be great!

Brutus thought for a moment and said.

“Zhao, I didn’t count on this. You have to do me a favor first, let me sit in the position of Grand Magistrate first. Then I can talk to the Senate about it. ”

Zhao Tuo smiled.

“I know you won’t suffer. What do you want me to help, tell me about it? ”

Brutus waved his hand and asked several Egyptian slave girls around him to stand down. What they talked about next was too confidential and involved the temple.

So, no one else can hear it.

When the slave girls all retreated, only Brutus and Zhao Tuo were left.

Only then did he say: “Zhao, recently because of the series of performances of the Kenwhite priest, it has been too bright. He may become the next High Priest. ”
