Conquering Myriad Worlds from the Mythical Three Kingdoms
Chapter 845 Rome in Progress
The effect of the Zerg disaster was better than Jia Xu had imagined. The Ming Dynasty devoted almost all its energy to anti-insect and disaster relief.
Even Zhu Yuanzhang's personal guard, the Hongwu Army, went to the disaster-stricken world to fight against the Zerg.
When Jia Xu was sure that the Ming Dynasty was really unable to spare the manpower, he decisively passed the news to Rome. The Roman nobles secretly contacted the Qing court and revealed the news to the Mongols.
Just as Jia Xu had expected, the Mongols immediately began to mobilize troops to put pressure on the Ming Dynasty. There is nothing more exciting than seeing your opponent suffer.
The Qing court itself was a vicious dog used by the Mongols to deal with the Ming Dynasty, at least that's what the upper echelons of the Mongols thought.
Their ultimate goal of saving the Qing court is still to deal with the Ming Dynasty, and now that they have the opportunity to severely damage the Ming Dynasty, they naturally will not let it go.
The Mongols even secretly contacted the Zerg Queen, hoping to inflict heavy damage on the Ming Dynasty by funding her.
The Mongols took advantage of the opportunity of the Ming Dynasty's military being tied down and began to deploy troops and create friction in several neighboring worlds.
The purpose is to make the Ming Dynasty extremely anxious, and in fact it is true. A single Zerg cannot shake the Ming Dynasty at all.
Apart from anything else, the Ming Dynasty's Miracle Legion, Military Soul Legion, and Three Talent Legion, these top combat forces can completely be invincible among the Zerg.
If all are concentrated on Jiajing's side, it will not take long to wipe out the insect swarm.
However, there is no if. As soon as the Mongols received the news, they sent troops to attack the Ming Dynasty, which gave rise to another voice within the Ming Dynasty, that the insect plague was actually caused by the Mongols.
They even detected the connection between the Mongols and the Zerg Queen.
After all, judging from the results, the insect plague ravaged the Ming Dynasty, and the biggest beneficiaries were the Mongols.
The second beneficiary, Xinghan, can only get an environment where he is not involved in either, and he still has to fight desperately with Qingting in the end.
Even if there was no interference and the strategy was in a passive position, the Ming Dynasty still felt that the Qing court would not necessarily be directly destroyed by Xinghan.
After all, the Qing court was an empire that had caused the Ming Dynasty to suffer several losses, so the Ming Dynasty still attached great importance to the existence of the Qing court.
While fighting insects, the Ming Dynasty was also carrying out a purge.
At Zhu Yuanzhang's suggestion, the Ming Dynasty began a vigorous self-examination campaign internally, and the Jinyiwei was fully mobilized to conduct a thorough investigation in all local worlds.
It is not only necessary to find out the undercover agents who have infiltrated the Ming Dynasty, but also to cut off the Mongols' spies within the Ming Dynasty.
They also need to find out how the Zerg Queen entered their native world.
First, the Xinghan invaded the Qing court's homeland, then the Zerg invaded the Ming Dynasty's homeland, and the Mongols' cross-world intelligence all made the Ming Dynasty feel the crisis.
After finishing all this, Xinghan immediately started the second phase of the operation. They had to take down the Qing court before the Ming Dynasty and the Mongols could spare any time.
The first to take action was Zhuge Liang. When Jia Xu dealt with the envoys, he ordered the Tenth Knight to lead troops to attack the Mongol camp.
Virgilio did a great job.
They occupied the camp with such efficiency that even Zhuge Liang could not help but nod his head and with almost no casualties.
Virgilio's actions successfully attracted the Mongol army.
The barbarian reinforcements prepared by Zhuge Liang also successfully arrived at Virgilio's side.
"Virgilio, I am the commander-in-chief of this battle, you must listen to me!"
Benito, the commander of the Fourteenth Combined Legion, stared helplessly at Virgilio in front of him. This old man was extremely powerful, but completely disobedient.
But he also knew that the next battle would be with the Mongols, and he had to make Virgilio obedient, otherwise it would be better not to have him.
In this kind of battlefield, miracles are really not invincible, and fighting with large armies is the top priority.
If Virgilio and his men act recklessly, it would be easy for them to drag down the entire army.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything rash!"
"I will assist you with the Tenth Eagle Flag!"
Virgilio glanced at Benito absentmindedly. Although he did not change his self-destructive tendency after being warned by Zhuge Liang, he had become more honest.
After all, they can't die now, or they can't die so meaninglessly.
They must make the Mongol Empire pay the price.
"They're here!" Palmiro's shadow suddenly appeared beside the two of them.
Everything was going according to Zhuge Liang's plan. Before the Mongol army started moving, Maximinus, Macrinus and Maximin arrived with 100,000 elite barbarians to provide support.
Zhuge Liang liked to use these barbarians. These barbarians were brave and easy to win over. Moreover, they were supported by Zhuge Liang himself, so Zhuge Liang felt very confident in using them.
The action that took the Mongol Yuan Dynasty one step ahead of the others also surprised the Mongol Yuan Dynasty commander.
The situation of more than 100,000 soldiers advancing could not be concealed from the Mongols in any way. The huge movement completely attracted the attention of the Mongols and achieved Zhuge Liang's goal.
The Mongols are an uncertain factor, so they must be eliminated before the second phase of the general offensive begins.
For the eagle flag promised by Zhuge Liang, the barbarians were extremely determined. The Roman eagle flag once represented the destiny of the Roman Empire, even though the will of the empire has now been absorbed by the Star Han.
But it still has extraordinary significance and still retains the ability to communicate the will of the empire.
This momentum of near-decisive battle successfully attracted the attention of the Mongols, who attached great importance to this wave of opponents in the camp.
After all, there is the miracle of the Tenth Knight to serve as a facade.
With the support of an army of 100,000 strong, the Mongols became cautious for a while and had to adjust their strategy, trying to eliminate the camp before the war.
The place chosen by Zhuge Liang was naturally very particular. Once the decisive battle began, this area could pose a fatal danger to the front battlefield at any time.
Especially when there is a miracle army as the vanguard, this threat is infinitely magnified.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Force march to the camp!" Benito loudly commanded Maximinus and others to march at high speed.
The Mongol light cavalry were lingering nearby, and if they were caught, the losses would be huge.
Even though there were not many cavalrymen nearby, Benito would never underestimate the Mongol enemies.
The destruction of the once prosperous Rome made every surviving Roman officer grow a lot.
If it were in the past, Benito would definitely not mind taking the 14th Combined Legion to fight the Mongol cavalry.
Now Benito was thinking from the perspective of a commander. Hua Buqiduo, the commander of the Mongolian cavalry, frowned. He did intend to lure the other party into the trap, but Benito's steadiness resolved his plan well.
Unwilling to give up, he tried to harass with cavalry, but Benito was prepared. Under the covering fire of Xia Xu's archers, he fled in a panic, leaving behind hundreds of corpses.
The failure of their probing and harassment made the Mongols even more alert.
The Fifth Skylark faithfully projected every detail of the Mongol army's progress to Benito.
"Virgilio, take the Tenth Knights and your auxiliary troops and prepare to charge!" Benito glanced at Virgilio and gave the order bluntly.
Virgilio was a little surprised, because usually they played as aces, but now seeing what Benito meant, he regarded them as the backbone.
Benito saw the confusion on Virgilio's face, but he did not explain. Political acumen had nothing to do with Virgilio now.
However, just because it has nothing to do with Virgilio doesn't mean it has nothing to do with him. He knows that the protagonist of this war is not the eagle flag, but the barbarians led by Maximinus.
The news that Zhuge Liang was going to select the first and second eagle flags had already spread throughout Rome, so the protagonists of this battle were them, and only them.
To this day, Benito has no intention of insisting on pure-blooded Rome. After all, Rome has declined, so what's the point of talking about pure blood?
Now only Africanus still insists on those things, and therefore he has won the support of a group of people. To be honest, Benito always feels that Africanus is courting death.
The great integration has become an inevitable trend, but Africanus is still doing this kind of thing. If Zhuge Liang wants to deal with Africanus, he will not have the slightest power to resist and will die easily.
Even if Africanus gathered a large group of people, it would be the same. Today's Royal Guards can really fight against miracles.
Moreover, they maintained a high degree of restraint towards legions below the level of Miracle.
The infinite changes that Benito still hasn't figured out can now be used to great effect in Zhuge Liang's hands. What's even more terrifying is Zhuge Liang's Eight Diagrams and multiple overlays.
Every legion is inherently inferior to the Royal Court Guard that Zhuge Liang has now formed. What's even more terrifying is that Zhuge Liang's Royal Court Guard now has 20,000 people.
With a number of this magnitude, coupled with the excessive support that Zhuge Liang could provide, ordinary legions would be completely unable to resist.
If it weren't for the fact that its origins were too complicated, Benito felt that this legion would have already achieved military spirit.
"Report, General, a large Mongol army has been spotted thirty miles ahead, with an estimated number of over 100,000!"
Palmiro passed the message to Benito, who nodded. He had a premonition after the opposing light cavalry retreated, so he asked Virgilio to be prepared.
"Leave the camp and form a battle array, ready to meet the enemy!"
Benito had no intention of engaging in a camp battle with the enemy. Relying on the camp, he could better protect his retreat and limit the performance of the enemy cavalry.
The opposing cavalry units are extremely mobile, and Rome itself is mainly composed of heavy infantry. The top cavalry have been killed or injured, and now they have to use the Knights of the Lake to fill the facade, let alone other legions.
Sent to the front were the barbarian spearmen and shield soldiers, a legion adjusted by Zhuge Liang, a heavy infantry legion centered on heavy armor defense and accumulated anti-missile defense.
It can even withstand a tank, and before being killed by the tank, it will fully counterattack the damage it receives, launching an attack that will destroy both it and the tank.
The epic ballads contributed by the Slavs, after being compiled by the Dijiang Legion, became applicable to any intelligent creature, and even animals could improve their organizational abilities.
The barbarians are at least much better than those chimpanzees. Coupled with Zhuge Liang's basic literacy work, the coordination of these barbarians has been greatly improved.
This is actually one of the main reasons for the barbarians' sudden rise. After all, the barbarians' organizational ability has always been a problem, and now that it has been solved, their combat effectiveness has naturally increased.
The second line of defense was the Tenth Knights led by Virgilio and their auxiliary legions, followed by the Scythian Archers, with the Fourteenth Group in the center.
On the two wings were Maximinus and his ducal guards, who were also candidates for the first and second eagle flags.
The Fifth Skylark hid in the camp, waiting for an opportunity to act. The complex environment of the camp was more suitable for them.
The Lake Light Knights and other legions were on standby on both sides of the camp.
Overall, the formation formed by Rome looks like an old hen using dual wielding weapons to protect the camp behind her.
It may look a little funny, but this arrangement is very error-tolerant.
"How are you preparing?"
Macrinus licked his lips. As a member of the African Run Romans, he was able to get to this point today. In addition to being lucky, his qualifications were indeed first-class.
Especially after Zhuge Liang discovered his potential and gave him special guidance, it was like a dry sponge filled with water, and his level became more and more terrifying day by day.
"Commander, the commando is ready and can set off at any time!" the deputy said seriously to Macrinus.
This black emperor from Rome successfully utilized his own uniqueness and gathered a large number of fellow villagers to form his own Duke Guard.
Using the resources brought by the improved status, he forcibly pushed the entire legion to the level of the Royal Guards.
Two talents, one is a body of steel, the other is burst of power, plus the secret technique of blood sacrifice brought back from their hometown in Africa, the entire legion has strong combat effectiveness.
He was determined to get the position of the Eagle Legion, and even though he had a good relationship with Maximinus and Maximin, he absolutely could not give it up.
Their old brothers in Africa also need a stable legion and status to safeguard their interests.
The status and privileges of the Eagle Flag Legion are exactly what they need.
Maximinus on the other flank and Maximin in the center had the same plan.
"A fortress that will never fall!"
At the outermost part of the battle line, Maximin displayed his legionary talent with cold eyes.
The talent effect is very simple, which is to stack armor and increase defense in proportion to the soldiers' defense capabilities.
This makes the already iron-clad defense even stronger, which is why he has the confidence to be at the forefront.
Combined with the talent of accumulated rebound, they are like iron turtles with spikes.
At this moment, the archer cavalry corps at the forefront of the Mongol army had already started to fire.
"Haha, rain of arrows!" Maximin sneered, then ordered all the soldiers to raise their shields. The crackling rain of arrows could not hurt these iron turtles at all.
"The Scythian archers strike back!"
Under the flag of Maximin, his legion is actually a replica of the original Fourth Eagle Flag. After breaking through the three talents, the Macedonian Legion has overcome its original shortcomings.
In addition, the destruction of the Scythian Royal Archer Corps caused a great change in the structure of the Fourth Eagle Flag, which was separated from the Scythian Archers, and this part fell into Maximin's hands. (End of this chapter)
