    Chapter 53 North of the Great Wall

    "It's amazing, I can't understand how the hovercars are made and lined up in long queues.

    From time to time, knights on Pegasus pass by above, and looking around, in addition to these magical things, there are countless people.

    Diocletian was not someone who had never seen big scenes. He was the former emperor of the Roman Empire (at this time, the Roman Empire once again fell into chaos, and a direct war broke out between the east and west for power. Although there was no new emperor,  Diocletian, the former 'supreme ruler', had been removed from his position).

    When the Roman Empire had its largest army, it even numbered one million. However, that was during the civil war. Generally, when the internal stability was stable, only a few hundred thousand main battle troops would be maintained.

    Before Diocletian left, because he was originally preparing for a war with the Persian Empire, the main battle army reached the number of 700,000, which does not include any auxiliary corps and migrant workers.

    However, this army was scattered throughout the Roman Empire, because the Roman Empire had a vast territory and covered most of Europe north of the Mediterranean and a large area of ??northern Africa. It turned the Mediterranean into its own inner lake and also  It brought huge difficulties to the military garrison.

    In other words, although the Roman Empire's armies were not large in number, they were scattered everywhere, making it extremely difficult to mobilize. Moreover, they did not have the magical means of a big man. When a big war actually started, hundreds of thousands of troops could be mobilized at one time.  The troops and horses were already a heavy burden - a hundred thousand troops went out for the expedition, and the auxiliary soldiers and various civilians added up to at least half a million.

    With so many people, the food consumption alone is enough to give any commander a headache. Although Diocletian decided to launch troops against the Persian Empire, the number of troops he mobilized was only this number.

    But now this magical country he just arrived in has effortlessly mobilized an army of 300,000 troops to launch an attack on the Huns in the north.

    Turning his head and looking at the tall young man standing next to him, he could not imagine that the emperor of the Han Empire was already over a hundred years old. He looked so young, so young that it made people jealous.

    But he has ruled this empire for more than a hundred years, commanding this huge and elite army to carry out devastating blows to surrounding countries.

    ¡°Could it be thathe is really the incarnation of Jupiter in the human world?¡±

    Diocletian kept all these questions in his heart. The most fundamental reason was that he had already figured out that the Han people had no interest at all in the beliefs of the Roman Empire. Even in the eyes of the Han people, the beliefs of the Romans were  Just like a joke.

    And through this period of contact, Diocletian also found that the ideas of the Han people were veryunacceptable. They actually believed that humans could become equal to gods.

    "What a terrible idea"

    At that time, Diocletian was startled by this thought and broke into a cold sweat, but then he felt excited.

    ¡°But it¡¯s extremely tempting!¡±

    He doesn¡¯t care about blasphemy or anything like that. Being able to become the supreme ruler of the empire, doesn¡¯t Diocletian still not understand what the so-called religion is?

    "What do you think when you see these?"

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????] ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

    "Your country has the most powerful army in the world!"

    In the past, Diocletian believed that the army of the Roman Empire was the most powerful army in the world, but in just half a day, he completely overturned his previous thoughts.

    It¡¯s not that he is not strong-willed, it¡¯s justthe gap is too big!

    Diocletian was not someone who didn¡¯t understand military affairs. It was precisely because he understood that he almost instantly thought of the role these things played in war with the seemingly magical things around him.

    That magical rectangular thing can allow countless soldiers to move to where they are most needed in the shortest time.

    In addition to soldiers, it also includes a variety of ordnance and food. As long as this is available, the mobilization and logistics of the army will no longer be a problem. All the generals have to consider is how to use the power in their hands to defeat the enemy on the opposite side.  collapse.

    There were also the knights who kept flying through the sky on flying horses. The existence of these people almost enabled the Han Empire's army to pass on instructions in the shortest possible time - he didn't know that the Han Empire's army did not need to use this method.  The communication is carried out in a traditional way. The general will be given a communicator.??The big man has already assembled the communicator up to the level of music director, which is extremely convenient for deployment.

    In addition, these guys who can fly in the sky are also the best scouts. I just don¡¯t know if this is a unique military unit of the Han Empire, or if this kind of creature exists in countries in the far east?

    Curious in his heart, he couldn't help but ask. After hearing this question, Liu Xuan was just slightly surprised. He didn't expect Diocletian's reaction to be so fast, but he understood it after thinking about it.  After all, he is someone who has reached the top, so it is not surprising that he can think of these things.

    "This is a new race that I, the big man, have only cultivated in recent years I am the only one who has it in the whole world!"

    Diocletian nodded, becoming more and more sure of his guess.

    From Luoyang to Chang'an, then turn north, the distance is not short, and then cross the Great Wall from Yongzhou to the sphere of influence of the Huns.

    Of course, this was before!

    Since the Han Dynasty became powerful, the Huns did not dare to get close to the area within 500 miles north of the Great Wall, because once the Han army discovered that the Huns appeared, they would not leave any room to pursue and kill you. Even if you escaped back to the grassland, the Han people would  The cavalry will also catch up until the 'enemies who have invaded the territory of the Han Dynasty' are eliminated.

    But this time, the number of Han troops who crossed the Great Wall and appeared here has reached a very exaggerated figure. But what shocked the Xiongnu scouts was that the Han troops were still gathering in a steady stream. That posture  As if there is never an end.

    "What are the Han people going to do?"

    "So many troops and horses"

    Looking at the ever-increasing number of troops, tents, and all kinds of strange things, the Huns fell into panic.

    Over the years, they have experienced the strength of the Han Dynasty more than once, and the Han Dynasty also uncharacteristically rejected the Huns' suggestions such as becoming a vassal and paying tribute, and always carried out very bloody revenge when they were invaded.

    The far-sighted people among the Huns had long realized what was happening, and as pieces of information were sent to their hands, the King of the Huns already understood what was going to happen.

    "The day has finally arrived!"

    Almost at the same time, in the camp of the Han army, there was also a person expressing similar emotions.

    "The day has finally arrived!"

    Lu Bu casually placed the note in his hand on the desk, with the order just delivered by the emperor written on it.  There was actually only one sentence on the small piece of paper.

    "We can start the attack!"

    Preparations began more than a year ago. The first batch of soldiers and horses came to the area north of the Great Wall half a year ago to carry out initial preparations. Lu Bu arrived three months ago, and several others arrived at the same time.  As a general, all they have to do is to prepare and then launch the first attack on the Huns.

    "Organize the army and prepare the horses!"

    In fact, the entire military camp is in a state of war preparation at all times these days, and can go to war directly with just one order.

    And after Lu Bu gave this order, almost as soon as Lu Bu picked up the Fangtian Painted Halberd and walked out of the camp, all the soldiers were ready to fight, and then filed out of the camp gate and started to advance towards the hinterland of the Xiongnu's strength.

    The reason for going to war this time is very simple: if an army of 300,000 people wants to spread out, the space required is very huge. The space currently occupied by Lu Bu is not enough to completely spread out an army of 300,000 people - it is possible, but it cannot be used to its full potential.  The full combat strength of 300,000 soldiers - so in order to gain more space, Lu Bu needed to launch some attacks first to push back the Huns' troops.

    However, even if the Huns did not understand this, they would not be able to let the Han army plunder their living space. Moreover, this first battle was extremely important. The King of the Huns also hoped that this battle would arouse the bloody spirit of the Huns and defeat the Han army.  The army is fighting back to the south of the Great Wall.

    There were even some Xiongnu generals clamoring to annihilate the Han army, and then directly cross the Great Wall into the Central Plains to plunder!

    By the way, going to the Central Plains to plunder after victory can indeed arouse the fighting spirit of the Huns. Countless people howled and howled to show the Han people their strength, and even said they wanted to cut off the heads of the Han generals and take them away.  go back.

    Of course, Lu Bu would not know about this, and even if he did, he would just smile.

    Lifting the halberd upside down, the red rabbit snorted under his crotch. Thirty thousand soldiers and horses had completely spread out in formation on the vast grassland. Lu Bu looked up at the sky. The cloudless weather couldn't be better.  .

    "In such weather, Your Majesty can see the battle more clearly."

     In the sky, there will be a rider on a Pegasus circling at regular intervals. The Pegasus the rider rides is all white, without a trace of hair, and the armor worn by the rider is all shiny, and in the sunlight  It glows brilliantly under the irradiation. If it weren't for the thin shirt covering the armor, the whole person would have turned into a huge luminous body. In addition, the cloth covering the armor prevents the sun from directly shining on the metal armor, making the armor more luminous.  The temperature keeps rising and the people inside are cooked. In fact, this is the reason why a cape is necessary when wearing armor, not to look cool.

    These knights flying in the sky are the soldiers of the Yulin Cavalry. The reason why these cavalry are here is so that Liu Xuan can see the entire process of this battle in great detail, and the key lies in each horse.  The inconspicuous jade charm worn on Pegasus' neck.
