The revival of Shu Han

Chapter 356 All the way to the West ([-])

Talk lightly and smile, and look down.

When this fair-skinned, black-haired, blue-eyed queen with exquisite facial features, but because of her high position and strong aura, was acting like a little girl at this moment.Li Mi's mind was absent for a short while.

As someone who has experienced it, Zanubia doesn't know how many times he has experienced such baptisms in his eyes.Seeing Li Mi's gaffe, he smiled even more charmingly: "How about it, Li, take your friends and stay together. I have already conquered Egypt. If I can resist the Roman attack in the future, I will take Antioch To you. To make you a duke."

It's a pity that this queen doesn't understand Li Mi at all, nor does she understand the Han people.Her temptation only made Li Mi recover in an instant.

"What are you talking about! Secretly was promoted by the great Sima, and has been entrusted with important tasks many times. The kindness and righteousness in it are hard to repay even if you are smashed to pieces. Today, if you abandon the state of your parents because of the position of a mere duke, you are a trustworthy person. Don’t say I’m ashamed of the entrepreneurship we shared weal and woe with in Fuling County, even my family’s ancestral hall, I’m afraid I won’t be allowed to enter it! Don’t say that again! Your Majesty, either let me continue westward or behead my head first. Then my other Han family men will fight to the death!"

"Giggle, Li, don't be angry. Well, you look really nice when you're angry. Please sit down, please sit down. I won't kill you. If you don't want to sell your things to me, I won't take them either. Shall we chat? You have traveled so many places, can you tell me how a small country can survive in the middle of two big countries?"

"Huh~~~" The beauty laughed again, it was really hard to get angry.

"What Your Majesty said, after listening closely for a while, I feel that the situation of your country today is about 700 years ago, when Jin and Chu were fighting for hegemony, and the situation of Zheng, Wei, Song and other countries sandwiched between Jin and Chu. Somewhat similar."

"Oh? Then how do these countries respond? Please tell me about it. Well, you guys hurry up and set up a tent. Don't let Li Sun get here."

"Uh... well."

Here Li Mi started to give lectures to Zanubia, while Long Yu and the others over there were depressed—it was in the desert, with the sun overhead, and it was very hot.But I didn't dare to pitch a tent or dismount to rest—God knows if there will be a fight?

Long Yu is depressed here, and Hormuz is also depressed in a farther place.

I am the first order heir of the King of Kings!I am not young anymore!With such a team of people, I have followed you from afar for so long.I can't lose you along the way, and I can't let you find out, brother, is it easy for me?It's not easy for the two of you to meet each other, so hurry up and start fighting!When I hit a certain level, I will come out and be a good person, and then everyone can happily go back to Ctesiphon to drink and have fun.What do you say you are doing?Why didn't we start a fight instead of talking?

……

"The general situation is like this. In general, small countries are sandwiched between big countries, and the most important thing is to swing with the wind. The struggle for hegemony between Jin and Chu has lasted for more than a hundred years, and those small countries that wanted to be independent have all perished. Standing too firmly Jin or the small countries on the side of Chu either perished, or were repeatedly hit by the other side. Only those countries where Jin was strong followed Jin, and Chu was strong followed Chu, survived these more than a hundred years."

"I understand. Li, what you said is very interesting. However, if you want to survive, you have to give up your dignity and please yourself. I can't do such a thing."

"...Okay, Your Majesty. Your will and character are greatly admired by foreign ministers. Then, let foreign ministers say one more thing. My family's chief Sima often said, 'Saving people lose land, people gain both. Saving land loses people, People and land are lost'. If it is necessary to meet the big country on the battlefield, Her Majesty, please remember these two sentences."

"Hmm...huh? What's the sound?"

In the far west, a resounding bugle suddenly sounded, and under the bugle, there were also dense and orderly drumbeats that penetrated countless sand dunes and reached the ears of everyone here.

"This voice is Roman!"

Putting the Buddha seems to confirm what Zanubia said.Soon, on the nearest Shalong in the distance, a golden image of a flying eagle first appeared.Then the flying eagle gradually grew taller, revealing the scepter under the eagle's body-this is the standard equipment of all Roman legions, the eagle flag.

With the appearance of the eagle flag, more flagpoles appeared in everyone's sight.The regimental flag, brigade flag, squadron flag, and centurion flag are stacked one on top of the other, neat and solemn.

Finally, the bugle temporarily stopped, but the sound of the drum became more and more clear.The sound of countless rustling footsteps came calmly and firmly.Above Shalong, first appeared a helmet tassel that was mainly red, mixed with a few other colors, followed by the famous Roman one-piece helmet. Right below the helmet, there were countless expressionless but extremely resolute faces.Beneath these faces is the iconic Roman infantry strip armor...

"This is, this is the Sixth Army of Rome! Look at the flag, the entire Sixth Army has arrived! Warriors, prepare to fight!"

Not only Zanubia was frightened, but Hormuz who was farther away was also frightened: How could it be possible that such a large and entire army penetrated into such a deep place.

What you need to know is that after Marius carried out military reforms, the number of a legion in Rome was a full 6000 people.On the battlefield, whether it is Persia or Palmyra, there are no 2 people, and such an army cannot be supported.

It was also the first time for Li Mi to see such a well-organized infantry phalanx, and he was stunned for a while.But when Zanubia started calling his soldiers to prepare for battle, he immediately came to his senses: "Don't panic, Your Majesty, this army is here to support our mission. It is not here to fight your country."

"What? Lee! Did you really have a connection with the Romans in the first place?"

When Zanubia said this, the Roman Sixth Army on the opposite side had already completed its formation.Soon, three cavalry ran out of the infantry phalanx.One wears an integrated helmet with a long red fringe on the back of the helmet, and there are many kinds of decorative patterns on the front armor.One is typically worn by Persians.One is pure Han family clothes.

"Roman Empire, Flavius, the head of the Sixth Legion, was ordered by the commander-in-chief of the imperial cavalry, Lucius Domitius Aurelian. Come to meet the envoys of the Han Empire. Please Li Mi of the Han Empire. answer!"

"Your Majesty, I'm sorry, the ministers have to leave."

"Well, it's a pity that I can't chat with Li for a while. If possible, when Li returns from Rome, welcome to Pamiral as a guest."

"I am deeply honored. If you have the opportunity, you must come and see how the country under the Queen's rule is prosperous."

"Go quickly. Hey, Li, you are really powerful. You actually asked Rome to dispatch a legion to meet you. You must know that the Romans have never had more than thirty legions in a country as big as the Romans."

"Thank you queen for reminding me!"

He got on his horse, looked back at Zanubia again, Li Mi came out more and more, did not return to the Han army, and ran directly to the three men who ran out from the Roman legion: "This is the time when the big man went to Rome as an envoy. Li Mi, the official envoy, thank you for coming so far from your country."

As a time traveler, Guan Yi is very aware of two points: First, the rulers of Persia are definitely not as arrogant, greedy and brutal as they are portrayed in today's Hollywood movies.On the contrary, before the Communist culture ruled the land.The Persians created a splendid and unique civilization.The people here are intelligent and hardworking, and the rulers here are also full of intelligent, wise and broad-minded heroes.Therefore, it is feasible to establish an official relationship with Persia and let the Persian officials come forward to ensure the safety and stability of the trade route.

Second, because the rulers here are wise, they are absolutely unwilling to establish direct official links with Rome.At this point, there is no need to take chances at all.Therefore, in this mission, except Li Mi, Long Yu, Kurshan and others on the bright side.He also inserted two secret pieces: Zhao Qian and Dai Yi.

After Mulucheng contacted the Persian officials.Li Mi and others followed the Persians to Taisifeng.With the help of Dai Yi, Zhao Qian crossed the territory of Persia and contacted the Roman forces on the Mediterranean coast through hardships and dangers.The efficient Romans then promptly reported the news to Byzantium.At this time, Aurelian, the commander-in-chief of the imperial cavalry in Byzantium, immediately made a decision: We must establish a direct official relationship with the Han Empire.Send out a legion, venture deep into Syria, and take over the Han mission!

"Uncle Ling, luckily you did not disgrace your life!"

"Uncle He, you have worked hard!"

"Hahahaha, it's not hard, it's not hard, this Dai is a Persian. We traveled all the way, that is, we were a little tired from the journey, and nothing else. Uh... just when we were met by the Romans, we were tied up miserably. Come on, Ling Bo, let me introduce you, this one is the current commander of the Sixth Army of Rome, known as the Iron Wall, General Flavi."
