Chapter 449 Before the War (Page 12)
The war meeting in the Senate lasted all night long, and it was related to the life and death of the entire empire. Everyone was almost frantically squeezing their own potential.
Zhuge Liang, Brunhilde and others gathered together. To be honest, things had gone beyond what they expected.
In the first battle, under the sudden change of the weather, Rome had a 4-6 draw with its opponent.
That's why with the intervention of destiny, they sent troops to assist.
But the problem was that in the second battle, they were defeated too quickly and too miserably, and the visible pressure was directly on them.
In fact, everyone began to hesitate whether to engage in a life-and-death battle here, or the value of a life-and-death battle.
If Mongolia relied on hard power to defeat Rome like this, they would not hesitate at all, but this is not the case. They have basically received the news of Mongolia's evil style of play.
The power of the evil flow comes quickly, but its inability to last is also a fatal drawback. After this war, the Meng Yuan they will face may not be as powerful as it is now.
A kind of luck breeds in everyone's heart. Many times, even if there is one ten thousandth chance, people will always be lucky.
"What should we do? Guishang seems to be planning to withdraw!" Lu Meng enveloped everyone with his spiritual power and said worriedly.
To be honest, even if everyone sacrificed their lives, he still felt that the chance of victory was slim, not to mention that someone wanted to run away at this time.
"I have contacted the emperor with the seven-star lantern, and the order should arrive shortly!" Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan in his hand and said expressionlessly.
"Tell us, what are the chances of Rome winning?" Lu Xun asked in a deep voice. The pressure was so great that everyone was a little impetuous.
"Including us, it's at most 30%!" Zhuge Liang shook his head and said slowly.
"Maybe lower!" Yue Fei also said, but everyone's hearts still sank.
Yue Fei's expression was gloomy. This sense of oppression reminded him of the powerless feeling he had when facing the Jin army when he joined the Song Dynasty.
Because he couldn't control the situation and could only go with the flow, this feeling was very bad for Yue Fei.
As he spoke, a starlight rose from Zhuge Liang's body.
Zhuge Liang was stunned for a moment, and his brows couldn't help but frown.
"What did the emperor say?" Everyone saw the change in Zhuge Liang's expression, and their expressions couldn't help but fluctuate slightly.
Even Zhuge Liang, who had always been calm, showed a change in his expression. Obviously, this order would not be so easy.
"The emperor has an order to assist Rome without going all out. In addition, technology and other things can be fully opened to Rome."
But Zhuge Liang frowned. In fact, this was only the first half of the order. He couldn't say the second half of the order, but he still had to do it.
After thinking for a moment, Zhuge Liang went directly to Severus.
"Your Majesty Severus, we will help you in the end. Our army will be stationed in this direction to contain the enemy!" Zhuge Liang said with calm eyes. In fact, at this moment, he has fully applied his spiritual talent to the limit. .
Xun You's strategic concealment and Jia Xu's speculation began to make people's hearts beat wildly under Zhuge Liang's plain appearance.
The moment Mu Yi issued the order, he simulated it countless times using heaven and earth as a guide, and finally came to a conclusion.
If Roma has a 30% to 50% chance of turning defeat into victory, then his help this time will push the probability of victory to a 70% chance of victory.
But what this chance of victory means to Rome is something that only the Romans themselves know.
But for Zhuge Liang and others, this victory is crucial.
"Unless the city of Rome is destroyed, we will fight to the death and not retreat!"
"Why is this so?"
At this point, Severus was no longer hiding anything. From the beginning, the Han Dynasty actively responded and sent a large number of elites. They were confused, and now they were finally able to ask their inner doubts.
"We, Xinghan, admit to establishing diplomatic relations with Rome. Saving you is moral and moral."
Zhuge Liang, who was in this state at this moment, said this without any hesitation, and Severus looked at the justice beside him, saw him nodding, and looked at Zhuge Liang who finally confirmed that Xinghan really planned to fight to save Rome.
"Our army will set off soon. Your Majesty only needs to lend me a group of young men and craftsmen. We have a secret method to build a strong city here to help the city of Rome!" Zhuge Liang said with a calm appearance.
Zhuge Liang pointed to a place on the map. It was in front of the left wing of the Roman city, not the right wing. This meant that even if the Xinghan army retreated, it would not affect the layout of the front of Rome, and it might still face the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty. A powerful attack.
"Yes!" Severus is a man who knows soldiers, and he is very clear about the terrain near Rome. He knows very well that there is nowhere to retreat to the place Zhuge Liang chose.
It can indeed threaten the main force of Meng Yuan from the flanks to the greatest extent and reduce the pressure on their front, so Severus agreed to Zhuge Liang's series of requests.
Zhuge Liang didn't delay too much and took Xinghan directly to the predetermined place.
"Mr. Zhuge, please stay!"
Zhuge Liang turned his head calmly and looked at the two figures behind him. They were Brynhild and Athena.
"Who are you two?" Zhuge Liang asked doubtfully.
"Olympus wants to advance and retreat with you!" Athena smiled, her long golden hair shining at this moment.
"Asgard wants to advance and retreat with you!" Brunhilde said to Zhuge Liang with the same smile.
"Are you planning to take advantage of the situation? Or do you think the other party knows something?"
Zhuge Liang frowned in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.
"Of course you are welcome to join us. This battle is dangerous. I hope you can coordinate with our army to give orders!"
"The fighters of Olympus can be under your unified command!" Athena's words put all Zhuge Liang's words back into his stomach.
"The warriors of Asgard can also be under your unified command!" Brünnhilde and Athena seemed to have discussed it.
Zhuge Liang nodded and agreed. He had no reason to refuse such help, but he was not sure of the plans of these two goddesses.
But the joining of the two is indeed a good thing for Xinghan. The fourteen Guards Legions are still capable of fighting even against the Meng Yuan Legion, and they are far more reliable than the Barbarians.
Zhuge Liang and the others moved very quickly. It took them a day to reach their destination and then began to carry out large-scale construction.
"What?" When Penilens received Palmiro's message, he thought Palmiro was joking.
"It's indeed true. I went to see it myself!" Palmiro was equally surprised.
"Xinghan is indeed a powerful empire! We are lucky to be able to get their help!" After receiving the correct reply, Penilence let out a long sigh.
"What's wrong?" Severus couldn't help but ask when he saw Penilence's expression was different.
"Your Majesty, you can see for yourself!" Penilence handed the information to Severus with a wry smile.
The intelligence showed that the Xinghan army built a fortified city in the selected defense area in just one day. They were using laborers to build the city wall frantically, and then used military formations to maintain the city wall.
