Water breeds life. Rivers are the cradle of civilization. Like the Yellow River, the river of Eastern civilization, the mother river of all the peoples on the European continent is the Danube. This continental river originates from the Black Forest area and rushes eastward, passing through the northern foothills of the Alps, the Vienna Plain, and the Hungarian Plain. Then it travels through the Balkan jungle canyons and pours into the Black Sea with great force. During the heyday of Greek civilization, adventurous Greek merchants used to drive merchant ships all the way up from the mouth of the Black Sea to explore river civilizations and dump the goods they brought in exchange for precious animal skins and other items. It was also during this period that the Danube River had its own historical name for the first time: Ister. In the second century BC, there were already some towns that relied on the river on both sides of the Istres River. Among them were Vindobona, Akuncum, and Singidunum. , in later generations they were Vienna, the capital of Austria, Budapest, the capital of Hungary, and Belgrade, the capital of Serbia. ¡ª¡ª. Wendobona. An important town in the middle reaches of the Danube River. When Eunice's Roman advance army heading north arrived here, they happened to encounter a tribal battle between the Goths and the Germans. Unlike the civilized countries along the Mediterranean, in the central and northern parts of Europe, the tribal form was still in a state of In the transitional stage of semi-primitive and semi-slavery, the northern tribes, who mainly relied on herding for their livelihood, often launched tribal wars one after another in order to compete for a piece of grassland suitable for horse herding. Between the Goths and the Germans, Eunice quickly identified his allies: the Goths. Compared with the more primitive and barbaric Germans, the Goths have lived in this area since early on. They have a higher chance of dealing with their southern neighbors such as Rome. Their level of civilization is also more developed. As a result, they created the height of the Mediterranean. It is reasonable for the civilized Romans to choose the Goths. Early September. The Germans were defeated and the alliance of several different ethnic tribal groups collapsed. As an alien ethnic group, they failed in this battle for survival and had to migrate. As a result, some Germanic tribes turned eastward. They began to contact Qin's representatives in this area, trying to find an opportunity to make a comeback and completely end the Slavs who had been expelling them. Qin¡¯s Northern Route Army, after Han Xin devoted his main energy to opening up the Bering Strait channel, the commander of the Northern Route Army was changed to Yang Wengzi. This former veteran general of the frontier army finally became the commander-in-chief of an army after serving as his deputy for a long time. Under his command, Qin's northern troops continued to oppress the Slavs with force, driving various ethnic groups in the hinterland of the Eurasian continent to move westward and then move again. North of Constantinople, on the Don River plain along the Black Sea, is where the Qin Army's Northern Route Army is stationed. Yang Wengzi has just received news of the Germans' request for peace and attachment, and also learned from the Military Intelligence Department that a Roman army has arrived. Along the Danube River, this suddenly surprised Yang Wengzi, who was experienced in the battlefield. Based on his understanding of the Germans and Goths, if the two sides went to war. The Germans should have the upper hand, but as it stands now, the Goths, with the assistance of the Romans, defeated the German tribes. In this way, there will be a situation in the northern border of Rome where the Romans and the Goths join forces to fight against the Qin army. Yang Wengzi looked solemn. This veteran with a strict personality was extremely cautious when facing a new battlefield and a new test. After all, the Qin army on the northern front was relatively weak, and Yang Wengzi had maneuverable power in his hands. There are only about 50,000 people, and the severe cold is approaching. For the Qin army, whose supply lines are too far away and the Black Sea is about to freeze, the upcoming winter will be the most difficult period. The Romans counterattacked at the right time. "I agree to the conditions of the Germans for the time being. As long as they can contain the Goths, there will be a place for them to live in Europe in the future -!" In the name of the request, the Northern Front troops immediately moved westward and marched upstream along Ruse and Singidunum in the Danube Valley. At the same time, the Gallic Army was required to launch an attack on the Roman Northward Army from behind within half a month. Otherwise, the stalemate on the northern front alone cannot be broken in a short period of time, and it may also cause the entire route to become passive¡ª¡ª" Yang Wengzi's response strategy is quite satisfactory, and there is no chance at all. This is also true. The characteristics of the hereditary generals of the Qin army who were born in the frontier army, although they sometimes seem a bit old-fashioned, are more stable than others. This is in sharp contrast with the unbridled ideas of the young Roman commander Eunice. The Gallic Legion of Petereus had returned to Gaul and had to surrender.After the Kingdom of Qin, the former Roman mercenary general was depressed for a time. However, after being personally summoned by Li Yuan, Peterius regained his spirit. Compared with the original employer Rome, the new owner Qin offered more favorable conditions. It's tempting. Allow the Gauls to govern themselves. This is the condition offered by Li Yuan, and the price is that Peterius must integrate a new force to fight against Rome, and coordinate the Qin Army's northern and western front troops in the northwest. This condition was very favorable, and Peterius had no way to refuse. Li Yuan did not ask him to lead the army into the hinterland of Rome, but only asked the Gauls to support the Qin army in the east and south directions. This time, Yang Wengzi The appeal of the Gallic legions stemmed from this proposal. The Gauls neither wanted nor dared to attack the Apennine Peninsula. The local area where Rome is located, the Apennine Peninsula, is mountainous in the north and south. Only the middle and northern sections near the west coast have sporadic plains. This terrain feature is typical of the Mediterranean landform. If there is no guide who is familiar with the local terrain to lead the way, , it would be quite difficult for any foreign army to completely defeat the Romans. And coordinating the direction of the Iberian Peninsula, the northern foothills of the Alps, and the Danube River Basin can not only open up the territory of the Gauls, but also eliminate the threats to Gaul from the barbarian peoples in these two directions. This is what the Gauls want most. things to do. West Line, Middle Road, North Line. Coupled with the battle for hegemony between fleets at sea. The all-out war between Qin and Rome started one by one. As the saying goes, one move affects the whole body. In this confrontation between the two powerful countries, the one who laughs at the end will never be the one who smiles brightest at the beginning, but the one who laughs brightest at the beginning. The one who makes the least mistakes. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
