Augustus Under the Horseshoe

Chapter 523 : Salona

After bidding farewell to the foundry general Carbo Hall, Painhes flew away from Okturon on three silver dragons.

This time, he did not skim over northern Italy. Instead, he flew along the northern foothills of the Alps and the southern end of the Germanic forest to the border of the Gaul region. He hurriedly glanced at the Romans relying on the South Gaul mountains, built by rivers. The defense system, along the Danube, flew back to the province of Norikum under his control, which is also the most western border of the tribe.

According to the current map, the province of Norikum is Austria, the Bavarian generation.

“It took a day and a half to fly, about 600 kilometers.”

Relying on the never tired zombie dragon and extremely stable flying speed, the warchief accurately measured the land occupied by Rome. Ancient Augustus once set up two imperial provinces in the north of the Alps, Noricum to the east and Ledia to the west, but the latter is very low-developed and has already fallen.

Flying this way, the entire province is full of dense hills and gully, and dense and prosperous virgin forest.

Your own tribe has expanded to its limit. Expanding further north and east? The cold grassland there is a bottomless pit, so much human and material resources are thrown into it, and you can’t even hear a sound. What’s more, it is still the Little Ice Age, and winter is not suitable for living things at all.

The west of the tribe is the Western Roman Empire, and the south is the Eastern Roman Empire. Even if the tribe is three times stronger, it is impossible to fight with the two Roman empires at the same time. But in Thrace, Greece and other places with steep mountains and dangerous terrain, the cavalry could not be used at all, and there were magnificent fortresses such as Constantinople. It was too difficult to expand to the south.

Moreover, he was the governor of the three provinces of Western Rome, and it was a safer choice to seek the position of Augustus in Western Rome. Northern Italy is the home of the Romans. They have been in business for many years and are easy to defend and difficult to attack. It seems that they have the only choice now to seize the more chaotic and fragile Gaul provinces and further expand the power of the tribe.

So, the question is, it is difficult for the tribal cavalry to travel from northern Italy to southern Germanic? The 600-kilometer marching route is full of hills and gullies and virgin forests along the road-this broken road is simply a disaster for the cavalry and logistics personnel participating in the battle.

“Forget it, let’s collect all the materials for making weapons. Even if we figure out the method now, there is no extra manpower and material resources to realize it.”

Painhurs sighed and returned to reality.

The yew, oak, and tumulus are easy to find. Just order the tribe members to chop down three good logs. The feathers can be pulled directly from the wings of Magnus. The matter of the lich is difficult and difficult, simple and simple. In the case of the tauren, there were several battle groups in the Eastern Roman Empire that were all composed of tauren, and Crete was also home to a group of tauren monsters.

But the devil? Ancient dragon? Where can I find this stuff? Is it possible to cross the Mediterranean Sea and fly to the underground world of the Arabian Desert to provoke an entire underground empire of psychic monsters?

Forget it, look for something else first. After returning to the Terror Fort in West Asia, Painhurs immediately began to deploy the task, ordering the tribe members to collect the materials recorded on the paper, or to inquire about the information of the materials, and bring reliable news. In addition to the three common types of wood, the person who directly brings the lack of materials to him will be sealed as the head of ten thousand households, or he may directly propose a wish that he can accept and can realize-big The chief is very sure that those who can really bring back these **** materials must be extraordinary.

“Ah, by the way, give me three hundred miners who are responsible for detecting mineral veins, and two thousand miners who are responsible for mining. You go to this location to mine.

Baima picked up a rough map of the province of Norikum and assigned new coordinates to the workers responsible for excavation and mining.

“Are you sure? Great Chief? The Romans have been surveying there for more than a hundred years, and those short piles have not found any veins at all.”

A hobgoblin slave owner blinked his eyes in doubt and asked puzzledly. Because all the year round in mines and crypts where the sun is not visible, the skins of these hobgoblins are as pale as white paper.

“Our people are also responsible for finding new mineral veins in the Transcarpathians and the Caucasus Mountains. You suddenly transferred so many people away…”

The slave owner’s voice became smaller and smaller, and finally stopped abruptly. The warchief was just lying on the throne, looking at him quietly, his calm eyes were like two huge mountains that penetrated the sky and the earth, the heavy goblin sweaty, almost out of breath.

“You, your will! I’ll handle it right away!”

“Very well, do it quickly.”

Looking at the trembling slave owner kneeling on the ground, the pale horse regained his ferocity with satisfaction. The Romans did not detect the veins, but that does not mean that they did not-this location, but the very famous Tyrolean silver mine in the future, When I came back, I deliberately determined the coordinates based on Noricum’s crude map and the overhead search in the sky.

————————————————

The entire tribe immediately became busy, looking for the warchief, and inquiring about the materials for casting this legendary longbow. About a month later, the information is organized as follows.

After acquiring the province of South Dalmatia, the tribe also accepted an unusually prosperous port city on the east coast of the Adriatic Sea: Salona.

After Xi mentioning a Mediterranean estuary, the tribe also joined the circum-Mediterranean trade. Several Eastern Gothic merchants said that they often sold food and their livestock went to Crete. That ghost place was full of tauren.

Similarly, several drow merchants from Egypt, who sold wheat and other grains in Salona, ​​mentioned in the tavern that: A few years ago, when the Sassanian Persian Empire attacked the Eastern Roman Empire with a national force, it was a demon. With their servants, they stormed the Sinai Peninsula, tried to occupy Egypt, and captured Alexandria, but they were repelled by Mother Drow.

Several drow elves frantically boasted about the strength of their race, so that several heart-reavers were cut off their heads by the brave and fearless black skins, made into specimens, and hung them on the banquet hall.

However, there is no reliable news about the ancient dragon. The only known surviving ancient dragon in Europe is Trajan’s own car, now living in the city of Rome-this can be directly excluded from the consideration. . As for the Far East, it is rumored that hundreds of years ago, an ancient black dragon ruled the Far East. Then it changed its dynasty and became an ancient red dragon. Then the empire was torn apart and the dragons competed.

Gary Vix had been there the last time, and he ran back in a hurry, saying that the various forces there were in a mess, and even the Silk Road had been interrupted. If he didn’t go, he would never come back.

However, the matter of the lich is easy to handle. The vampires and ghouls master the core technology of transforming the lich. As long as they can find a spellcaster who touches the sixth ring, they can turn the hapless child into a lich on the spot, and then dismantle it. Drop the bones and use it to make a bow.

“So, is the ancient dragon the most troublesome thing?”

Pain Hess sighed and looked at the list of dragon habitats: the Sahara Desert, blue dragons inhabit the Arabian desert, red dragons active in the mountains of Spain, white dragons lurking in the Alps, and Germanic forests. There is a green dragon lurking in it, a black dragon lurking in Gaul, Belgium, and a deep dragon underground in Egypt.

“Well, the goals overlap. Go to Egypt to see if you can find the Ancient Deep Dragon. By the way, buy a specimen of the head of the Demon Demon and go back.”
