The Macedonian capital was besieged, and the Thracian and other tribes were alienated. The empire created by Alexander the Great gradually came to an end. Under the violent attack of the Romans, all the Macedonian land routes had been blocked, and the only way out was the sea route to the sea. There were insufficient soldiers, people were in turmoil, and the situation in the city continued to deteriorate. How long the city of Pella could hold on, Philip V could not answer. When one day the Macedonian fleet was defeated and the sea lanes were blocked, Philip V would really become a turtle in the urn. The State of Qin. This distant and strange eastern country, as well as the mysterious masters under its command, are now the Macedonians¡¯ last hope for maintaining the country¡¯s survival. November 28th. When Philip V sent several envoys to the Qin territory, entrusted by Li Yuan, the Qin army's western general Luo Jia and the visitor Lu Jia held emergency discussions with the Macedonian envoys for five days, and finally reached an agreement between the Qin army and the Qin army. It was unanimously agreed that the army should cross the sea for reinforcements. As for the time for dispatching troops, it should not be later than the end of December at the latest. There is only one month of training time. For the soldiers of the Qin Army who are about to embark on unfamiliar battlefields in Europe, there are still many things that need to be familiarized and learned. On the Anatolian Peninsula. Cao Xin and Ji Xin led the Qin army to train in full swing. At this time, Shenwu Emperor Li Yuan, who was heading north from Xin'an City in the Mesopotamia, had reached the northernmost line of Qin. The city of Xiyong is located at the junction of Transcaucasus and the Caspian Sea. Its real geographical coordinates should be near Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan in later generations, and an important city on the northern line of Qin State's Seven Stars Link. It was also Qin's first barrier against the Slavs and Huns from the northern grasslands. The Caspian Sea area, in ancient times. The Aral Sea, the Mediterranean Sea, the Black Sea, the Sea of ??Azov, etc. were all part of the ancient Mediterranean. Later, after the evolution of sea and land, the ancient Mediterranean gradually shrank, and land gradually formed between these seas, while the Caspian Sea and the Aral Sea gradually merged with the Mediterranean Sea. separated and became inland lakes. The structure of sedimentary rocks and rich seabed resources. The underground that forms the Caspian Sea contains an enviable underground treasure¡ªpetroleum resources. Compared with the coal and rock in Hedong County, China, oil is more valuable. Its versatility and huge military value allowed Li Yuan to find a good opportunity to break through the bottleneck of technological development. Outside Xiyong City. Groups of newly arrived Qin people are working hard to cultivate the land that has not been completely frozen. Among them, many are new Qin people from Guandong. They may just be passionate. Maybe it¡¯s to seek a better life, or maybe it¡¯s to realize your ambitions and ideals. Responding to Li Yuan's call, he traveled thousands of miles and came to the strange place of the Middle East. God is awarded Qin, if it is not taken, heaven should not be. Looking at these compatriots, Li Yuan's car stopped by the Caspian Sea. This black land is so fertile and so tempting. "Look, it's the flag of King Shenwu!" A sharp-eyed man straightened up from the black soil in the field, suddenly opened his eyes and shouted loudly. "Xiao Wuzi, are you dazzled? Why did Emperor Shenwu come here? Xin'an City is far away from our place?" The companion next to him retorted disdainfully without raising his head. "Hey, it's really King Shenwu. I know the general next to him. He's General Li Zuoche from Xiyong City." The man in question rubbed his face, dropped his farm tools and ran over. More and more people are gathering. Li Yuan's name was mentioned by these new immigrants from time to time. Many of them had never seen the Shenwu Emperor, but through word of mouth, Li Yuan's deeds had long become the most important thing in the hearts of all Qin people. Revered hero. It¡¯s not just Li Yuan. In the next half month, Qin generals from all over the Western Qin Dynasty rushed to Xiyong City. Among them were general Huan Chu who was stationed in Dongyang City, and Luo Jia who was training infantry in the strait area¡ª¡ª . ¡ª¡ª. Xiyong City. It¡¯s freezing cold. An important meeting to determine the future strategic direction of the Qin Army is being held. After the promulgation of the mobilization order for the Western Expedition, Emperor Shenwu Li Yuan held a meeting of generals at all levels of the Qin Army for the Western Expedition a year later. In addition to the first group of old subordinates who followed Li Yuan's march westwards, the meeting was attended by a second group of follow-up soldiers. A large number of young generals of the Qin Army, many of whom joined the army after the unification war. This time, they also saw the legendary "three heads and six arms" Shenwu Emperor for the first time. In addition to the generals in the army, Zhang Liang, the great master of Tianshi Dao, was also invited to attend the meeting. This was also the first time that Zhang Liang truly entered the core circle of power in the Qin State. Compared with Zhongnan Mountain, ZhangHe looks a little older, and his hair, which was originally gray, is now completely white. "Master Zhang, you have worked hard during this period." Li Yuan couldn't help but hiss when he saw Zhang Liang's appearance. Although he was the one who inspired Zhang Liang to come west with the disciples of the Heavenly Master, the task of preaching was still too onerous for an old man who was almost fifty years old. "Your Majesty is serious about your words. If you can allow my Eastern morality to take root in this vast foreign land, Liang will have no regrets even if he sacrifices his life." Zhang Liang said brightly with bright eyes. After a year of preaching. Tianshi Tao has developed smoothly in the Middle East and has about 50,000 Taoist disciples. This achievement is inseparable from the efforts of Zhang Liang and others. It is the unremitting efforts of these firm believers in Taoism that have made it possible The barbarians in Central Asia and the Middle East, who were wary of Eastern civilization, began to look toward the Qin Dynasty. This change is decisive. It represents the first time that Eastern civilization went abroad, out of the barriers of the mountains of the Pamir Plateau, and spread among people of different skins and races. On another battlefield. Zhang Liang has rediscovered himself. He and the Tianshi Tao led by him are on a path of rapid development. As long as the door to different races can be opened, the future of Tianshi Tao will be infinitely brighter. In addition to Tianshi Dao, the generals of the Qin army stationed in various cities also reported to Li Yuan the situation over the past year. Among them, the most eye-catching ones were the settlement of immigrants and land reclamation and planting in the Mesopotamia Basin, which was related to the cold weather in the north. The weather in Xiyong City is different. The lower reaches of the Mesopotamia Basin located in the Persian Gulf have a humid climate and there is no snow all year round. The weather here is similar to that of Jiangdong in Qin State. Some crops in the south, such as rice, Transplanted to paddy fields and swamps in the Lianghe area, it grows well. lack of food. It has always been a big problem that troubles the Qin army's movements. For the people of Qin who are accustomed to oriental diet, it is too difficult to live in a place where there is a lack of wheat and rice. They can only eat cheese products from cattle and sheep, and can only satisfy their hunger with local omnivores. "Generals, thank you for your efforts and hard work in the past year for the glory of Great Qin and the strength of Great Qin." In his concluding speech at the meeting, Li Yuan expressed his gratitude to all the soldiers of the Western Expedition. He spoke highly of his achievements, and his words made the eyes of all the generals present turn red. ??A man doesn¡¯t shed tears easily. It¡¯s just that the fate has not reached the point of sadness. In order to pacify the occupied areas, the soldiers of the Qin army paid too much, and some of the small-scale wars never stopped. Of course, these things can be calmed down at the level of Huan Chu and others, and there is no need to specialize. were explained one by one at today¡¯s important decision-making meeting. "Generals, you all remember that the strength of the Great Qin requires the bloody battles of generations of athletes and the blood and sweat of each of us. If we want to continue to maintain the leading position, the officers and soldiers in our army must We must not relax at all, and we must always be prepared to fight to the end against those hostile forces that dare to spy on our Great Qin!" "One day, we will let the people of Great Qin travel to every corner of the world; one day, we will let the people of Great Qin travel to every corner of the world! , we will be proud to say that the territory of Da Qin is infinitely vast, and wherever the sun shines, our flag of Da Qin is fluttering in the wind; one day, our names will be mentioned by generations of descendants. , highly respected, because we will never stop expanding our territory, we are the greatest pioneers of this nation¡ª¡ª!" Li Yuan's voice was firm and powerful, and it seemed that there was something in the ears of the young Qin army general. It is like an irresistible magic power, and for old men like Luo Jia, Li Yuan's words are an imperial edict, and even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, they can still be followed without fail. Allowing the people of Qin to leave the Yangtze and Yellow River areas of their hometown and visit places they have never set foot on is an important measure promoted by Li Yuan. He hoped to rely on Qin's advantage over other nations to establish the Qin people's leading position in Asia in one fell swoop. Only in this way can the status of the Chinese people be guaranteed for a long time, and the Chinese people will not be repeatedly regarded as "human beings" by Westerners. Too much" consumes too many resources to ridicule and blame. Are there many people in China? In later generations, the population of the earth will increase to 7 billion. There are about 1.3 billion Chinese, accounting for about one-fifth of them. How many white people are there? There are nearly five billion white people, and most of them have migrated from Europe to all over the world. It is precisely because they control most of the world's territory and resources that the white Western world openly and sharply accuses other people. Race variety is not. You must know that the total population of white Europeans in the world is much larger than that of Chinese people, but those liberal democrats in the WestNeedless to say, white people want family planning because they occupy the most beautiful places in the world. North and South America and Australia are all occupied by white people. Even the places where the ancestors of black people live, the African continent, , there are also a considerable number of Caucasians present. If, on the other hand, the Qin people can get out of their self-proclaimed homeland and immigrate to other countries, then just imagine, it will not be the Westerners saying that the Chinese are not the Chinese, but the other way around, occupying most of the area and possessing many The Qin people who had abundant resources "bullyed" the white people.
