Chapter 446: The sky and the earth are dark and yellow, and the universe is primitive (page 12)
"Rome's response was very fast. Meng Yuan caught us off guard, and Rome was able to occupy the advantageous terrain first."
Lu Xun looked at the Roman garrison area on the map and marveled.
There were not a few civil servants and generals who came to Rome this time. Leaving aside Lu Bu, Zhao Yun and others for the time being, Lu Xun, Lu Meng and other civil servants and reservists also followed Zhuge Liang and the others to Rome.
Lu Xun, who had already learned a lot, had a glint in his eyes. They had basically followed Xun Yu to gain merit in the Song Dynasty and were in the learning stage. In fact, he and Zhuge Liang were of the same age group.
But he had no objection to Zhuge Liang being the leader. After all, anyone would learn to behave after being pushed to the ground and rubbed back and forth dozens of times.
"Rome hopes that we can take over this defense zone and help each other as horns with Persia and Sassanid. Isn't this a bit too easy?"
Lu Meng on the other side looked at Rome's transfer order and asked a little strangely.
"Easy? This is a dangerous place!" Zhuge Liang sighed and said, if it was really easy, Rome would not put them in this place.
"After all, it was the opponent who caught him by surprise, and Rome fell behind immediately!" Zhuge Liang frowned slightly. To be honest, he felt that the commander-in-chief on the opposite side had been replaced, and he was most likely a military god.
His acting style is unconventional and his commanding style is almost unconstrained. To Zhuge Liang, he even feels like Han Xin is on the opposite side.
This bad feeling made Zhuge Liang feel slightly uneasy. If the commander-in-chief on the opposite side is really replaced by a military god, then the next war will not be a question of whether they try their best, but a question of whether they will die if they don't try their best. .
Although Zhuge Liang felt that he was very close to the so-called military god level, he was just a little bit close. Zhuge Liang didn't know where the difference was, but he had a private competition with Han Xinli and lost miserably.
When Han Xin ignores logistics and uses full firepower, his combat effectiveness is completely inhuman.
In the past war deductions that started from scratch, he could still rely on internal affairs to make up for some of the shortcomings and fight with Han Xin for a long time.
However, the logistics of both sides were all supported by Xinghan, and the two sides fought freely. Zhuge Liang lost seven out of seven battles. Each battle seemed to be close, and the total loss was a complete mess.
While Zhuge Liang was thinking, the generals were a little eager to try. They hadn't taken action for a long time. Now that the enemy was coming, they were all a little excited. Since coming to Rome, they had not really taken action yet.
"Why don't I take people to test it out after we move in?"
Cao Ang was eager to give it a try. He was now considered to be a master of internal energy separation. Although he did not have his own exclusive legion, he was assigned a barbarian cavalry legion, and he could not restrain his restlessness for a long time.
"No, although the Meng Yuan army is not advancing very fast, it is still impossible to determine the location of the opponent's main force. You must not act rashly without accurate information!"
Zhuge Liang directly rejected Cao Ang's proposal. In this kind of imperial battle, a trial is likely to turn into a big battle in an instant. Once it falls into the main battlefield, it will be troublesome, especially if the opponent is suspected of being a military god.
If they are surrounded, even the decisive battle legion may not be able to break out of the siege.
"After taking over the defense area, we will patrol day and night to ensure that the intelligence within fifty miles is transparent. We must not slack off at all! Anyone who disobeys the order will be executed!"
Zhuge Liang said seriously to the other people in the military tent.
"Anyone who goes into battle without my or General Yue's orders will be killed together!"
"Here!" Everyone looked sternly. They all knew that Zhuge Liang was not a person who liked to joke, and their hearts suddenly became full of vigilance.
The most fearful thing on the battlefield is not seeing the enemy coming fiercely, but not being able to understand what the enemy is doing. The former can still struggle for a while, but the latter may be killed by a single oversight.
Zhuge Liang flapped his feather fan, feeling unable to calm down.
He had a feeling that this time the Mongolian and Yuan army would be terrifying, and Rome might really lose.
I hope Mongolia won't be too frustrated and crazy, and I also hope Rome can be stronger. Zhuge Liang prayed silently in his heart. It is really inconvenient to play away from home.
However, looking at the defense zone that Rome had arranged for its allies, Zhuge Liang felt a little at ease. In the worst case scenario, they could just run away. In this regard, Rome was very humane and probably worried that they might cause harm at the critical moment.
Therefore, the positions arranged by Rome for the reinforcements were basically on both wings. Even if Zhuge Liang and the others retreated temporarily, Rome would have sufficient time to react.
After a hearty meal at noon, the 50,000-strong Xinghan army, with the barbarian auxiliary troops provided by Rome, broke out of the camp and marched directly in the direction of the Roman camp.
Rome's main battle legion only has more than half a million people left, but the number of single-talented barbarians is nearly three times that of the main battle legion. This is not the limit of barbarians. No wonder Rome is so afraid of barbarians.
After all, a vast base, united by a backbone, can exert quite terrifying power.
If a strong man like Han Xin were to fall from the sky among the barbarians, the 1.5 million strong barbarians would have the capital to threaten the security of Rome. Although they may not be able to overthrow Rome directly, they could at least bring trouble to Rome. A hard one.
No one dares to challenge the majestic lion king, but for the aging and dying lion king, even the maned dog dares to show his fangs.
Just one day after Xinghan took over the defense zone, the Mongolian and Yuan armies arrived on the battlefield.
After entering the confrontation with Rome, the Mongolian and Yuan side gave up the policy of massacre and began to turn to Huairou. Even in the occupied areas, they did not carry out massacres. After deterring them with iron and blood, they left them aside.
This is also the biggest reason for the slow advancement of the Mongolian and Yuan armies. It is easy to occupy but too difficult to govern.
"Report, there are 100,000 troops advancing fifty miles away from our army!"
The news from the messenger woke everyone up.
One hundred thousand people, this number is neither more nor less, but judging from the information they currently have, Meng Yuan does not have any miscellaneous soldiers with dual talents.
Although they have 150,000 people, which is 50,000 more than their opponent, nearly 80,000 are single-talented soldiers, which means they have no advantage in fighting.
The marching speed of the Mongolian and Yuan armies was not fast, but the momentum of the slow advance was inexplicably terrifying. Without concealment, the Mongolian legions lined up in a line, and as the collective progressed, their morale became stronger and stronger.
"Get out of the camp!" Yue Fei directly gave up relying on the camp for defense. After all, in the process of contacting Rome, they had clearly realized that the morale of the barbarians was too problematic.
Moreover, time was short, and they did not have time to build semi-permanent fortifications and city defense equipment. Defending the camp was of little significance, but it would also limit the performance of their decisive battle legion.
Of course, the more important thing is that Zhuge Liang restricted the Turkish Army from building camps. Otherwise, with the speed of the Turkish Army in the future, the entire Tucheng would not be a problem.
As the defense area chosen by Roma to defend, there are basically no natural dangers to speak of, otherwise they would not have been specially arranged to help defend.
When the two sides saw each other's strict formation on the plain more than ten miles apart, they were all shocked. The clouds in the sky were inexplicably distorted. As General Meng Yuan drew out his sword, the entire Mongolian army's generals raised their own swords. weapons.
